My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 2215 Every word of loyalty, step by step against
The last ray of light in the sky dissipated, and red lanterns were hung everywhere in the Liu Mansion.

In the main hall of the inner courtyard, there have already been three rounds of wine and five flavors of food.

Except for Liu Mingzhi and the drinking men, a group of female relatives had already satiated and left.

When the tenth altar of wine bottomed out, Liu Mingzhi stood up shaking his head: "I can't drink anymore, I can't drink any more, old man, old man's father-in-law, Mingli, it's time for you all to leave.

Don't be greedy for a good wine, a little drunk is better than a drunk.

Just drink to your heart's content, there is no need to get drunk alone. "

After Liu Mingzhi finished speaking, he staggered and turned around and rushed towards Dongkuayuan. If he drank any more, he would not have the strength to challenge the queen one-on-one.

Liu Mingzhi got up together, Wen Renzheng and the others also exchanged greetings and put down their wine glasses.

"Boy, I will wait for you outside the gate of the house later."

Liu Mingzhi, who was about to pass through the hall door, froze, nodded silently, walked towards Dongkua courtyard with a wry smile.

In the Chunyuyuan wing room of Dongkuayuan, Liu Mingzhi was apologizing to the queen with a pitiful expression.

"To put it bluntly, it's really not because of my husband's failure to keep the agreement. It's really because of the old man's invitation. It's not easy for my husband to refuse. Tomorrow, tomorrow will we be singled out, okay?"

The queen rested on a soft pillow with her fragrant cheeks in one hand, her icy skin and snow-skinned fat shoulders were half exposed under the reddish candlelight, and the tall peaks fluctuated even more with her breathing under the moon-white apron. .

Looking down at Eldest Young Master Liu squatting on the bed with a pitiful expression, the empress rolled her eyes mournfully, and waved her hand casually.

"Get out, get out, you don't have time, my old lady just wants to rest early!"

Liu Mingzhi stood up and kissed the queen lightly on the forehead as if he had received amnesty, then picked up the cloak on the hanger and walked towards the door.

"To put it bluntly, you should also go to bed early, and go to the appointment for your husband first."

Seeing Liu Mingzhi impatiently going out, the empress snorted coquettishly, punched the edge of the bed, rolled over and shrunk into the brocade quilt.

If I had known this earlier, why would I have to bathe and change clothes? I have been busy with aromatherapy and rouge for most of the day.

The night sky was gloomy, and there were no stars and moons.

On the official road to the south of the capital, two figures are slowly moving forward, one of them is carrying a wine gourd. It is Liu Mingzhi who used lightness kung fu to escape outside the city, Wen Renzheng, his master and his apprentice.

The red lantern in Liu Mingzhi's hand swayed slightly with the oncoming cold wind, and the candles inside the cage swayed and flickered even more, and the flickering light reflected the messy snow with footprints on the road.

"Old man, since the farewell to Yingzhou five years ago, you have been silent for so many years. Not only Yun Shu, but even the boy and Yun Yao thought that you, the old man, had--

After finally seeing Fengyundu, your old man came and went in a hurry, and once again there was no news of the dragon.

Later, I thought about it carefully, and realized that you were hiding from us on purpose, so the boy didn't bother to send someone to find your whereabouts.

After returning to Beijing, the boy and Shu Er are still discussing in private, I don't know if you will show up to see him this year.

Fortunately, Huang Tian paid off, your old man is finally willing to show up.

Where have you been all these years?I don’t know how to write a letter to my family to say that I’m safe, so don’t worry if I wait! "

Wen Renzheng took a sip of wine silently with the pot in hand, and sighed softly a few times.

"Life encounters are impermanent, and there are some things that even the old don't know how to talk about.

Not to mention you, even the old man thought that he would die soon after leaving Yingzhou. An thought that the world is impermanent, and met his senior brother Li Buyi as soon as he went out. "

"Brother?"

"Yes, senior brother, he is accepting apprentices on behalf of the master, and he calls himself an old senior brother. After meeting him, the situation is roughly like this."

Liu Mingzhi nodded in amazement: "It turns out that you actually followed Li Buyi, an old god, to clean up, no wonder you haven't heard from him for many years.

Fortunately, the sky has eyes, your old man is still here.

You too, since you have been dormant around us after the battle of Fengyundu, why didn't you show up? "

Wen Renzheng's expression gradually became silent, and he gave Liu Mingzhi a complicated look.

"Although the old man had a premonition, but after seeing your kid really take that step, the old man still couldn't adapt.

In just over ten years, how did the great situation become like this!

Originally, the old man planned to meet you, but after seeing you raising his troops, the old man felt complicated and sad, so he had no choice but to retire again and did not meet you for the time being. "

Hearing Wen Renzheng's entangled words, Liu Mingzhi sighed with regret.

"It's not just that you didn't expect, old man, the kid himself didn't expect that I would take this step.

If it wasn't for Li Ye Fengyundu's assassination, maybe the kid would never take this step in his life.

It's a pity that there is no if in the world, and this thing happened after all. "

"Are you trying to say that the reason for raising troops is because Lord Li Ye forced his ministers to rebel?"

"Probably so!"

"Probably? Why not for sure?"

"I—I don't know how to say it!"

"Hehe. That's because you have never faced up to your identity as a chess player. The king forced his ministers to rebel? You only saw Li Ye's king forced his ministers to rebel, but you never saw the reason for yourself.

Feeling your own conscience, you have come to this point, is it really Li Ye who is forcing his ministers to rebel?

Maybe you don't know it yourself, or maybe you don't dare to admit it, the cup of tea in Yanhe's trial of loyalty and traitors back then has already caused a world-shaking change in your heart.

After words and deeds, Prince Li Baiyu ascended the throne.

If Li Baiyu hadn't died young because of the sudden rebellion of his brothers, you might really continue the story of another generation of monarchs and ministers.

However, the heaven is not beautiful, Li Baiyu, a new king whose virtue is not weak and his father Li Zheng, chose to die for the people.

You have known Li Baiyu for many years, although the relationship between monarch and minister is not as deep-rooted as Yanhe, but the reason for the third princess Li Yan and the brotherhood between you and Li Baiyu also make up for this deficiency.

But what about you and Li Ye?
Although there is a relationship between father and nephew, but the personal relationship in the past was just a casual acquaintance.

Your ability to propel him to the throne and proclaim him emperor is only because of the entrustment of your father, Huang Yanhe, and the entrustment of your elder brother Li Baiyu.

Later, Li Ye and you got along very well, but compared to Li Ye's grandfather and father, after all, there is still a big difference.

And when Li Ye came to the throne, the scene where your soldiers and horses disrespected the new emperor's holy will in the palace, but were dismissed by you, has already buried a gap between you and Li Ye that is destined to be irreversible.

Once the rift is created, no matter how hard you try, there is no possibility of getting back together.

Later, before you advocated the Northern Expedition, you privately dedicated to Li Ye the two books you wrote to teach Li Ye how to be a king.

The way of being a king was not something that Li Ye slowly comprehended after he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, but was taught by you, a courtier, which invisibly deepened the rift between you and Li Ye.

Although you did your best to help Li Ye secure the throne as soon as possible because of Li Baiyu's entrusted Gu, but you also made a mistake that a courtier should not make.

The crime of usurpation.

And the crime of usurping is tantamount to deceiving the king.

There is no greater achievement than the Savior, and no greater crime than deceiving the king!

Coupled with Li Ye's young age, his ascension to the throne was too hasty.

Compared with his father, Li Baiyu, he is even more incomparable.

Li Baiyu has been established as the crown prince for many years. Under the influence of Yan He, he has already learned a little bit of the way of being a king, and he has taught by words and precepts. The posture of a king.

Coupled with the fact that Zhaozhong has a solid foundation in managing the Chinese New Year, even though he has just ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, his prestige in the eyes of all officials has already been deeply rooted.

On the other hand, Li Ye was not a prince when he ascended the throne, and he had never been exposed to any way of being a king.

Because of his father's untimely death, he had no choice but to ascend the throne hastily. However, he had no foundation at a young age and could not convince the public at all.

The reason why he was able to sit on the throne is only because you have an army in your hands, and you have supported him with all your strength against all odds.

A prince who is not a prince and has never been exposed to any way of being a king directly ascended the throne as the emperor. He has no spare power to stabilize the court and society, and has received sincere assistance from all officials, but you directly taught him the way of being a king.

You are not helping him, but you are spoiling the growth and destroying its foundation. "

"In other words, are you sincerely helping him secure the throne, or do you have some other purpose?

If you really help, you should understand that it is far more appropriate to stay in the court and slowly teach him by precepts and deeds than two books to force him into the way of being a king.

But not only did you not do that, but you coerced all the officials in the court and carried out the Northern Expedition. Li Ye did not agree at first, but because you insisted on asking for the Northern Expedition, you had to agree.

Although Li Ye had never been a crown prince, he had studied in the Imperial College for many years, and more or less knew what it means to put the overall situation first.

Although he has not been taught the way of being a king by his father, he will not be so stupid that he knows nothing.

Would he not know that the stability of the situation at that time was far more important than the Northern Expedition to unify the world?

However, the numerous civil and military officials of the three dynasties were all suppressed by you, and he had just ascended the throne as the emperor, how could he, a young monarch with no foundation, stop you, who had already made up his mind and had a large army? Where are the shoulder-to-shoulder kings and the commander-in-chief of the middle army?

And this move is destined to widen the gap between the monarch and his subjects again.

In the eyes of the people in the world, you are loyal and loyal. For the last entrustment of the two late emperors, you will strive to unify the world and repay the important task of the two previous emperors.

But from the old man's point of view, you, Liu Mingzhi, are loyal in every word, and you are rebelling every step of the way! "
