I really don't want to be a traitor

Chapter 127 Emperor Falls
Fan Li stayed at No. 90 in Chang'an for nine days.

For a long time, he hadn't seen Cao Cao, Liu Bei, or Sun Quan.

It wasn't because of Dong Zhuo's death that these three turned their faces and refused to recognize anyone.

In fact, with the current situation of a big man, Fan Li's weight is getting heavier.

Almost every day, envoys from the three families came to visit Fan Li.

While apologizing that the Patriarch is busy, he really has no time to visit Duke Jin.

On the other hand, he brought out expensive gifts, proving that the three families never dared to look down on him.

Fan Li was very reasonable and accepted the order with a smile, and took the trouble to reassure the envoy every time, making the other party believe that he really didn't mind, and that he did not misunderstand that Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan were alienating him.

Because he knew that the three of them were really busy, busy changing dynasties.

Fan's business is all over the world.

This also means that Fan Li's eyeliner is all over the world.

For example, in Chang'an City, there are three very famous tailors who have recently received mysterious orders to order dragon robes at high prices.

Although it is impossible to find out where the three dragon robe orders came from, the size of the dragon robe can be found.

"So Cao Cao is so short?"

"Lengthened sleeves? This set is customized for Liu Bei."

"Hey! Sun Quan's waistline is so thick? What does he usually eat? I thought it was cheese pastry, milk tea spring rolls, etc. I guess it's because Jiang Shilang ate too much tofu."

While complaining, Fan Li tore the note with the size of three sets of dragon robes into pieces.

It's time for him to go too.

Weiyang Palace sent a decree that the Han Emperor wanted to see him.

In the past three months, Fan Li had visited the palace many times, but every time he went directly to Changle Palace.

He then remembered that he had never seen Han Emperor Liu Xie since the war.

Outside the palace, the sun is shining brightly.

Inside the palace, candles were actually brightly lit.

It seems that the people inside have extremely poor eyesight, and they must turn on the lights in broad daylight, otherwise they will not be able to see anything.

The light was too abundant, and Fan Li had just stepped into the hall door when he saw an old man lying on the bed in the hall.

White hair and white beard, eyes closed, Princess Changle personally guarded the bedside and waited on her.

When Fan Li approached and took a look, he was startled!
The man's skin was shriveled, with criss-cross ravines, and a few dark age spots could be seen. He was obviously an old man who was exhausted.

But Fan Li immediately recognized that the old man in front of him was Han Emperor Liu Xie!

A hundred days ago, he was still in his prime, with regular and handsome features, and a refined temperament.

But now?
Fan Li looked at Emperor Han and Princess Changle, who looked calm.

"You're not dead yet?" Fan Li spoke faster than his brain and accidentally expressed his thoughts.

"...Yes, I am not dead."

Emperor Han opened his eyes, which were as muddy as mud.

He looked at Fan Li, but he was full of disgust.

"Haha." Fan Li scratched his head in embarrassment. "Your Majesty's dragon body is in good health, and the foreign ministers are very happy to see it."

"Which eye of yours can tell that Zhenlong is healthy?" Emperor Han spoke very slowly and shook his head slightly. "My daughter, to be entrusted to someone like you."

Does it sound like someone is explaining the funeral arrangements?
Fan Li picked his feet in embarrassment.

He felt like a wild man who was marrying without a matchmaker, while Emperor Han still acted like his father-in-law.

"Can you take good care of Changle?" Seeing that Fan Li was silent, Emperor Han asked in a hoarse voice.

"……able?"

Fan Li wanted to say 'it's none of my business', but he was afraid that Qin Huang's sword would come out of its sheath.

After staring at Fan Li for a long time, Emperor Han finally sighed.

"Emperor Jiajing will unify the world sooner or later."

"When the Ming Dynasty army comes to the city, how can you resist it? What should I do about Changle?"

"The alliance between Chu and Han is as solid as a rock, and the combined strength of the two countries will definitely make Jiajing dare not move lightly." Fan Li replied with a standard answer.

"Chu-Han Alliance?"

Emperor Handi seemed to have heard a joke.

“If the big man no longer exists, what will you do?”

The father-in-law's final assessment?

Why is it all the truth?
Fan Li suddenly realized that if he continued to talk nonsense, not only would he not be able to perfunctory Emperor Han, but would instead make the other party look down on him.

He said sternly: "Even without the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Sun Quan and I are still strong allies."

Han Di's eyes finally changed.

"I already knew that you and the three of them...are the same breed."

As a treacherous minister, Fan Li had never been squeezed by the emperor like this.

Well, I'm a little unaccustomed to it.

"What do you plan to do with my precious grandson?" Emperor Han asked again with a straight face: "As far as I know, the Fan family is hereditary Marquis Li Yang, but this generation is inherited by your eldest brother Fan Ming, and he has no heirs. ?”

Fan Li said with a strange expression: "My eldest brother will have a child sooner or later, and Li Yanghou must be the eldest brother's heir."

"What? My good grandson is of the blood of the Tian family, and he can't compete with your brother's son?! Thank you for having the face to be a father..."

Emperor Han was about to lose his temper, but was stopped by Fan Li's words.

"Isn't it better for the prince of Chu to inherit the title of Marquis Li Yang?"

Handi opened his mouth wide.

He was stunned for a long time, and finally pointed at Fan Li's nose and cursed!
"I almost forgot! You, like Dong Zhuo, are traitors!"

"Stealing a dragon and turning a phoenix into a phoenix, it's a shame you have the nerve to speak out about such a thing!"

"How difficult it was for the Overlord of Chu to found his country back then, and you stole the artifact..."

Emperor Han couldn't stop cursing for a long time, and spitted all over Fan Li's face.

Fan Li wiped his face and asked, "According to Your Majesty's wish, we no longer want the position of Prince of Chu?"

"Don't you dare!?" Emperor Han glared at Fan Li angrily.

Ah this?

Then why are you scolding me?

Fan Li dared to think but not to speak out, after all the old man wanted face the most.

"Is there anything else to do, His Majesty? If there is nothing else, the foreign minister will leave and dare not disturb His Majesty's rest." Fan Li counseled.

After he finished asking, he found that no one answered him.

Emperor Han held Princess Changle's hand, and the father and daughter exchanged thoughts with their eyes.

Fan Li didn't dare to say anything, for fear of making the old man angry again.

He stood awkwardly beside the dragon bed, feeling that he was the only superfluous presence in this scene of a loving father and a filial daughter.

After a long time, Emperor Han finally spoke.

"I use a hundred days to repay the debt to the people a little bit."

"Chang Le, I'm not a good father, what I can leave you... is too little after all."

Princess Changle smiled and said nothing.

"Fan Li."

"Ah, here?"

Hearing Emperor Han call his name, Fan Li answered subconsciously.

"Tonight, I allow you to stay in Changle Palace."

Fan Li just wanted to refuse, but he met the unquestionable eyes of Emperor Shanghan.

"...The foreign minister obeys the order." Fan Li could only say.

He didn't expect that as soon as he agreed, the princess beside him stood up and pulled him out of the palace.

Soon, the two arrived at Changle Palace.

Fan Li couldn't help but ask: "What does your father mean?"

"It's nothing."

The princess waved her hand, signaling all the ladies and eunuchs to go out.

The gates of the palace were closed, and even the windows were closed.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines into the palace through the gaps in the doors and windows, falling on the princess's gorgeous clothes.

The next second, the clothes fell to the ground.

In front of Fan Li, the most beautiful picture he has ever seen in his life appeared.

Princess Changle's beautiful face has a holy and fairy-like temperament.

"Every time you come to Changle Palace, Father knows that you and I are just chatting."

"Father hopes that the husband and wife will live in harmony."

"Just one night is enough...to make Emperor Father happy..."

The princess's tone was gentle, but her movements were extremely strong.

In the Qi Refining Realm, there is really no room for resistance.

Fan Li looked forward to the end, and occasionally looked forward to the success of the resistance.

It's a pity that until dawn, when the first ray of morning light shines into the palace through the cracks in the window, he is still a loser.

suddenly!

A bell rang from Weiyang Palace, desolate and heavy.

Princess Changle froze and said nothing.

Fan Li also remained silent, even if water dropped on his cheek, he did not wipe it away.

After a long time, the princess finally spoke.

"Father... has passed away..."
