Daily life under the hands of mad critics

Chapter 177 Chapter 170

The Imperial Palace, the Summer Palace.

When entering the palace, the guards did not allow many people to accompany him, so Su He only brought Zhou Xuanming.

The moment one walked into the Summer Palace, a strong smell of medicine mixed with sandalwood came to the tip of the nose, the sun shone through the cracks in the vermilion window sills, and faint dust danced in the air.

"Cough, cough, take it away, what's the use of drinking so much medicine, I won't drink it." A mature and slightly hoarse voice came from the inner room.

The little palace lady in pink came out hurriedly with a Jun porcelain medicine bowl in her hand, "Eunuch Cao, the Supreme Emperor still refuses to drink it."

Eunuch Cao showed a look of embarrassment, then he waved his whisk and said in a thin voice, "Go down first and warm up the medicine."

As he spoke, he turned to Su and the two of them: "Please, both of you."

Su He walked into the inner room, walked around the screen, and saw a golden bed curtain. Xiao Lie, who was wearing a golden silk brocade robe, was lying on the bed.

Xiao Lie's face had already developed many wrinkles, and his face was yellow due to serious illness, vaguely revealing the appearance of the high-spirited young emperor back then.

The founding emperors were not idlers, Xiao Lie also won the world on horseback, and he was also a dragon and a phoenix when he was young.

"Cao Min Su He has met the Supreme Emperor" Su He bowed and saluted.

Xiao Lie, who was lying on the bed, closed his eyes sullenly.

Hearing the sound of unfamiliar footsteps entering the house, he knew that it was some so-called folk genius doctor who was recruited again today, so he didn't bother to answer.

Until the clear and distant voice came to mind, Xiao Lie's brows twitched, and the thoughts of youth and frivolity slowly floated in his mind. On the top floor of the Treasure Tower, the young man who seemed to come by moonlight was wearing a moon-white robe. , Yan Yan smiled with a face as clear and meaningful as a fairy.

Xiao Lie felt that he must be dying soon, otherwise how could he hear that person's voice.

In this world, only that person's voice can be so recognizable and so pleasant.

Su He looked at the person who closed his eyes on the bed, sighed slowly in his heart, and said helplessly: "Xiao Lie."

When this sound fell, Xiao Lie's ears were like thunder exploding.

This familiar tone, familiar voice.

Xiao Lie suddenly opened his eyes, propped his body up and half sat up, his violent movements brought about a violent cough: "cough cough cough..."

Su He stepped forward and patted the other party's back, then pulled out a handkerchief and handed it over: "It's better."

Tears came out of his cough, and when Xiao Lie gradually saw the face of the person close at hand in the haze, his breathing suddenly became a little messed up, and he stared at the person in front of him, not daring to speak.

Su He understood the other party's shock at seeing her suddenly become alive, and said hello kindly: "Long time no see, Xiao Lie."

"Su He...?!" Xiao Lie said in disbelief, "It's really you?"

"It's me." Su He nodded.

Seeing that 20 years had passed, his appearance remained the same, he was still the handsome young man back then, the joy in Xiao Lie's heart only spread for a moment, and he lay down suddenly, his face was covered by the brocade quilt, and he turned his back to Su He, letting him One cannot see his face.

He didn't ask Su He why his appearance hadn't changed for so many years, but coughed violently a few times in a hoarse voice with embarrassment: "Get out!"

The boy in his heart still looks the same when he returns, but he is already an old man who has lost his style.

Xiao Lie instinctively wanted to maintain the image of the young man who lived in the young man's heart.

Aware of this old friend, there was a hint of embarrassment in his tone, and he smiled secretly in his heart, Hao Yan's personality was exactly the same as before.

Su He took Zhou Xuanming out and said with a smile, "I'll wait for you in the side hall."

"Please, father-in-law, take us to the side hall."

After Su He left.

Xiao Lie pulled away the brocade quilt and sat up.

He is obviously over 40 years old, and has been immersed in power for a long time, Xiao Lie still feels his heart beating violently at this moment.

There is happiness, there is resentment, there is astringency, and the complex mood seems to have overturned several flavors of ups and downs and mixed them together.

That person is back.

He really hasn't changed at all.

Back then, you had vaguely guessed that his identity was unusual, and it was true.

Xiao Lie raised his hand to touch his face, and said in a deep voice, "Come here, I want to freshen up."

Eunuch Cao outside the door didn't understand why the Supreme Emperor was seriously ill and didn't lie in bed to recuperate, but had to get up to wash up.But the Supreme Emperor has always said that his temperament is one and the same, so Eunuch Cao had no choice but to call people in quickly.

Su He waited in the side hall for half an hour.

A dignified figure slowly walked in from the gate of the side hall.

Xiao Lie didn't let his attendants follow, he stood at the door with his back turned away, and said from a distance: "Su He, you are finally willing to show up."

Although the complexion after washing and washing still had a trace of sickness, but when he stood there, he could see the majestic and dignified image of the emperor, which was completely different from when he was an emperor when he was a teenager.

"You have changed a lot these years." Su He smiled: "Come in, can't you blow your hair?"

Hearing this, Xiao Lie suddenly snorted coldly, and said impatiently: "What are you doing in Xiao Country? Back then you just left with a note, so what are you doing now? My body is not so bad that I can't even No wind can blow, cough cough..."

"Don't be brave, you have been the emperor for so many years, why are you still the same. How are you doing these years?" Su He grabbed the man's arm, pulled him into the hall and sat him down, and asked Zhou Xuanming to ask Eunuch Cao for a cloak.

When Zhou Xuanming saw Emperor Xiao, he felt uncomfortable with the other party. If it wasn't for this middle-aged face, he would have doubted whether the old guy liked Shizun.

Reluctantly went to the big cloak in my heart.

Hearing the other party's question, Xiao Lie had no expression on his face: "What can I do, that's it."

While looking at the people around him feeling ashamed, Xiao Lie couldn't help asking: "Why did you leave so suddenly without even saying hello, did you treat me...as a friend!"

Speaking of this, Su He had a rare guilty conscience: "Didn't I have something to do at the beginning, it was urgent."

The one who said to leave at the beginning left without thinking too much, left a note to tell everyone that he was safe, and then slipped away.

Xiao Lie looked at the people around him, and knew that the other party was lying, except for those childhood thoughts that were aroused by the first sight, now that so many years have passed, mature adults already know how to handle things maturely and decently.His tumbling mood became stable.

"Let's talk, you haven't thought about appearing for many years, what happened suddenly?" Xiao Lie's brows were calm and calm, this is an emperor.

The old friend still looked like a scheming man, and Su He felt that the difficulty of the conversation suddenly went to the next level.

"Then I'll open the skylight and tell the truth, what's going on in Lin'an City, Xiao Guo is going to fight recently?"

Xiao Lie knew that this person had always been blind in his heart, so he slowly said, "Yes. That fellow Yu'er was eager to show off his talent and subdue the prestige of the court, and started preparing for the fight against Chu State half a year ago. "

Su He frowned: "You don't have to be so confused, Xiao Guo's current situation is not suitable for war."

"I am an old emperor who has abdicated. How long can I stretch my arms? Yu'er's kid has ambitions, and his abilities and wrists are not very good. Let him stumble."
