Chapter 136 Fan Li wants to resign

Xing'er was able to go into battle to kill the enemy because he was in Shangjing.

When the rebels entered the city, Xing'er did not sit idly by, which shows that he is still very manly.

But You Ting was far away in Fengyang supervising the construction of the imperial mausoleum, hundreds of miles away from Shangjing. How could he take credit for this change?

Could it be that Youting had come to Beijing or the suburbs earlier?
Seeing that I had been silent for a long time, Meng Degui smiled and said: "Girl, what else do you want to eat? You are so seriously ill, and you only ate a few mouthfuls of soup and porridge. The emperor told the girl that her spleen and stomach are weak, so she should eat less and more frequently. She is sick." It was like this when I was pregnant. You don't know that in the past few days, no matter how late it was, the emperor would always come to our place every day. As soon as he came, he would feed the girl soup by himself. If the girl could eat, he would feed her a few more mouthfuls. When I opened my mouth, the emperor was sitting by the side with a bowl in his hand, looking at him as he fell down from sleepiness, that's all, and he didn't let the servants interfere."

No wonder he was so sleepy and exhausted just now. I only thought that he was because of the complicated affairs of the previous government, but I didn't expect that he would be worried about me.

While being moved, I also felt guilty, secretly hating why my body was so unsatisfactory?He fell ill at a difficult time.

I was stunned for a while, then nodded quickly and said, "Bring me some light side dishes, I'm really hungry."

In fact, my whole body was sore, my mouth was sore, and I had no appetite at all. But this involuntary feeling was too uncomfortable, and I wanted to get back to what I was before as soon as possible.

Meng Degui suddenly became overjoyed and was about to go out to prepare. I waved to him and said, "Go out and give the orders and come back. I have something else to ask you."

He left and returned quickly.

I looked at his face and asked: "What reward does General Fan have? But for entering the rank?"

The smile on Meng Degui's face faltered, but then his expression returned to normal and he said, "I came to Xiyuan on the same day as the girl. I don't know much about the affairs of the court."

My heart tightened, and I had already guessed a little bit, so I changed my face and said, "You mentioned Xing'er and my brother earlier. How come you knew it so well? It shows that you understand in your heart. You just don't want to say it." , I will know about this kind of thing sooner or later. If you tell me now, how can I sell you? Just tell the truth, but General Fan has not been rewarded? "

Meng Degui hesitated for a while, then lowered his voice and said: "General Fan wanted to resign, and the emperor rejected it. Who knew that General Fan had submitted his resignation again, and the emperor directly handed it over to the Fan family. I didn't hear anything more in the past two days. What news should I tell you? The emperor has just ascended the throne and General Fan did such an act. The emperor did not blame him, he has already burned incense."

"Perhaps he is in poor health. General Fan was seriously injured when he was putting down the rebellion." I said softly.

But his interest was no longer high, and he felt unhappy all over. He asked him again about the funeral arrangements of Ying Xuanzong and Concubine Hui, and whether the Cao family had been pardoned, etc., and then ordered him to go out.

The palace maid brought a few exquisite side dishes and a portion of sour bamboo shoots and chicken skin soup. I only drank a few mouthfuls of the soup before putting it down.

When he looked in the mirror, he found that he looked haggard and sick, so he took a bath and washed himself, ordered the palace maid to pull up his hair, and applied a thin layer of rouge, so that the person in the mirror looked energetic.

"I want to go for a walk." I whispered.

The palace maid hurriedly said: "I'm going to get the girl's coat."

Where do you get cold in the middle of summer?

But I still put on my coat obediently before going out.

The yard is filled with the fragrance of flowers, with all kinds of flowers and trees vying for beauty. There is also an Albizia julibrissin tree in full bloom under the blue sky. The red color is like clouds among the green leaves.

The palace maid held an umbrella and followed me to the pavilion to sit down.

When you raise your head, you can see the double eaves of the palace in the distance to the west.

That is the palace of the Forbidden City.

After sitting for a while, my hair still felt heavy. I turned my head and looked at the silent moon cave door, feeling a little disappointed.

Although I knew he must be busy during the day, after going through this near-miss ordeal, I just looked forward to seeing him and being with him. Although I only saw him in the morning, I was recovering from a serious illness at that time. His mind was still confused, and he was in a hurry to leave. They separated as soon as they saw him, and then he began to miss him.

I am also worried that he will be in a difficult situation in the DPRK...

Not to mention anything else, Fan Li had an upright and resolute temperament and was loyal to the previous dynasty. Liang Xianyi became the emperor. He must have found it difficult to accept it for a while, but he didn't expect that he was so stubborn and wanted to resign. From the courtiers to the common people, , who doesn’t know the name of General Fan? If he resigns at this juncture, wouldn’t he be undermining his will?

I sighed softly and thought to myself, why is Fan Li so stubborn?
The palace maid said: "Girl, you have been sitting here for a while, please go back to your room and lie down."

I nodded, walked slowly back to the house, lay on the bed, and said softly: "I'll lie down for a while, and you'll call me later." As soon as I lay down, I felt dizzy, and I thought: Could it be that the disease has returned again?I felt even more depressed and restless in my heart, but when sleepiness hit me, I quickly fell into a drowsy sleep.

When I suddenly woke up from my dream and sat up, I found that it was already dark outside. The palace maid guarding outside the curtain came in hurriedly and said, "Miss, are you awake?"

I turned over and got out of bed. This time, I had strength all over my body, my mind was clear and very refreshing, and I said, "Why didn't you wake me up? I actually slept all day."

The palace maid said: "I called the girl twice, but the girl couldn't wake up. I didn't dare to disturb the girl. It was already dark when I slept, but I see that the girl looks much better."

I sat in front of the mirror, feeling much better, and asked her: "What is your name? In which palace did you serve?"

"My servant Wenluo used to work in the imperial kitchen."

I nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "I'm hungry, let's prepare dinner."

Several dishes were brought this time, and I said, "I don't eat much, so prepare less next time. Don't waste it."

Wenluo smiled and said: "Girl, wake up. Maybe the Holy Emperor will come for dinner. Even if you catch up, it's always good to prepare in advance."

I said a faint "hmm", but I was thinking in my heart: The people he picked were all very smart, and I thought he might come.

Sure enough, after I cleaned my hands, he came.

I was already hungry, but I was filled with joy when I saw him. I couldn't help but let Wenluo add an extra bowl of rice, but he stretched out his hand to stop me: "You are just sick. It's still night. If you eat too much of this duck porridge, you might accumulate food."

I curled my lips and watched helplessly as the bowl of porridge was removed.

Unexpectedly, he chuckled, asked someone to bring it back, and said, "That's fine, you can eat it if you like. Let's go outside for a walk later."

I took a sip of the meat porridge and said, "You... Your Majesty, you have been working hard for many days, so you should rest early."

He raised his eyes and glanced at Wen Luo, then lowered his eyes and said lightly: "This is not in a hurry."

"Your Majesty, are you not sleepy? My daughter's eyes turned red when she saw you."

He picked up a piece of yam cake and said, "Are you sleepy?"

I was stunned for a moment, and then I realized that my face was getting hot. I looked at Wenluo beside me in embarrassment, and saw that she was standing with her head bowed, her face as usual, and I felt a little more at ease.

When I looked back, there was a piece of yam cake in my mouth. This was a gift from the emperor, so I had to open my mouth to eat it.

But Wenluo had already calmly picked up the basin and retreated.

As soon as Wenluo left, I glared at him: "Are you really not sleepy? It's just that there were a lot of things in the past few days, and it's time to have some leisure time now, right? Even a body made of iron cannot be so unloved."

He stood up and carried me towards the bed. I panicked and shouted softly for him to let me down. But as soon as I was free, I fell on the quilt, with half of his body covering me. His eyes were full of love, and he was staring at me with a smile on his lips. I wanted to push him at first, but soon I was addicted to his gaze, and obscure emotions gradually surged in his eyes.

But he lowered his eyes, got up from me, lay on his back on the bed, and said, "Why aren't you sleepy? I just don't want to sleep. I have to go back to the palace later in the evening. I want to take a good look at you now and see how you look again." It’s great to feel energetic now.”

I sat up, sat cross-legged beside him, held my chin in my hands, and called him softly: "Dedication."

He turned his head and glanced at me doubtfully, then turned sideways and supported his head with his hands. He looked at me quietly and said with a smile, "You tell me."

I took a deep breath and asked, "When did you and General Chang get to know each other?"

His expression remained the same, but his eyes dimmed slightly, and he stared ahead calmly and said: "In the 20th year of Chengxiao's reign, Japanese pirates repeatedly invaded the southeastern coastal area. My father sent General Chang to attack. I am curious about naval battles and asked my father to allow me to practice with the army. My father sent General Chang and me to the imperial study and said to General Chang: "I will give you my dedication and let him train with the army, but you have to bring him back to me safely. If anything goes wrong, you will be punished." Ask! 'After hearing this, General Chang said bluntly that the battlefield is merciless and the sword has no eyes. Your Highness, the Sixth Highness, can just use hunting as training. When my father heard this, he became angry. When I heard this, I quickly told General Chang to let him take me with him. Ordinary soldiers are treated equally."

A smile appeared on his lips, and he continued after a while: "When I was 14 years old, I personally killed a Japanese pirate leader. At the celebration banquet, General Chang and I exchanged cups and drank till dawn. , the next year, bandits were causing trouble in the south of the Yangtze River, and I asked General Chang to give me an elite force and went there without telling my father."
