The great man will live forever

Chapter 136 Unpredictable people
Soon after the gourd was blocked, the Yellow River broke through Guantao on the north bank of the lower reaches and branched northward, which was called the Tunshi River.

The Tunshi River is parallel to the Yellow River, which plays a role in diverting water and reducing water flow. The Han Dynasty has not had to worry about floods for decades.

Liu Han also returned to Chang'an with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty even said that he wanted to make Liu Han king, but he refused.

"Why? You are my nephew, and you have great achievements. In fact, you could have been crowned king long ago."

After thinking about it for a while, Liu Han said: "Rather than being a king, I would rather be a hussar general to open up territory for the Han Dynasty. If I become a king, it would be inappropriate to lead an army on an expedition."

"Why is it inappropriate? I believe in you. Even if I become king, I can still leave the army to your command."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was an extremely contradictory person. It is not wrong to say that he was suspicious by nature. Sometimes he did not believe anyone, but he also cherished talents very much. Once he trusted someone, within that period of time, it was completely Believe, use it boldly, and be eclectic.

For example, Zhu Fuyan, Sang Hongyang, Zhang Tang, Wei Qing, Huo Qubing in the early years, Huo Guang and Jin Mixi in the later years.

"Precaution is still necessary. Of course I am loyal to Your Majesty, but sometimes the human heart is the most unpredictable thing in the world."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was stunned, frowned and said: "You are calm, this is what I appreciate most about you. Ji An left, Zheng was old at that time, no one dared to talk to me like this in these years, and no one Dare to reject me, except for you, you are really similar to Qu Bing."

After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty finished speaking, he looked directly at Liu Han, "Will you always be loyal to me?"

Liu Han looked directly into his eyes, "I am not loyal to someone, to the Han, to the people, or to my Liu family. If there is a tyrant like Xia Jie or a coward like Qin II in our Liu family, Not only will I not be loyal, but I will also resist him because I don’t want to see the foundations of His Majesty, Gaozu, and all the emperors of the Han Dynasty destroyed in one fell swoop.”

"You mean I am a foolish king, a tyrant?" Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was a little angry.

"In my eyes, Your Majesty can be called the emperor of the ages, so I am loyal to Your Majesty. If Your Majesty continues to do such a good job, I will always be loyal. Therefore, the decision-making power has always been in His Majesty's hands."

The two looked at each other for a long time, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty suddenly laughed, "You are very similar to me. The prince shrinks in front of me and hesitates. It would be great if he was like you and understood me."

As he spoke, he kept patting Liu Han on the shoulder.

"The prince is kind and kind. Your Majesty will train you slowly. In fact, there is another reason why I don't want to be the king."

"what reason?"

"It's been more than ten years. Maybe I was injured in the Battle of Hexi. It's useless to recover. I probably have no heirs. Since I have no heirs, I don't want to take the throne."

Liu Han said with a very lonely look in his eyes. He learned from Zhao Lan that he would not have any offspring. This was one of the reasons why he alienated Ayimei and Xiao Taohong. But if he let them go and put a hat on himself, And reluctant to give up, unwilling to give up, people are always selfish.

"Seriously? I have found the best doctor in the world and used the best medicine in the world, and he will definitely be able to cure you." Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty looked a little moved and stepped forward to hold Liu Han's hand.

"I have tried hard over the years and asked the late Dr. Que Tailing to see it, but his medical skills were ineffective, so I had no choice but to accept my fate."

Que Tianhua died two years ago at the age of 67. He was considered a long-lived person in ancient times. His funeral was attended by Liu Han in person. With his death, no one knew what kind of illness Liu Han was suffering from and whether he was injured. Back then, few people in the Han Dynasty could match his medical skills.

"There must be a way. I immediately ordered to summon all the miracle doctors from across the country."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to waste national power. If there was a way, I would have tried it long ago. I also accept my fate. Sometimes it is fate.

I remember that when Brother Huo and I traveled thousands of miles, he was seriously injured and slowly recovered. I was afraid that he would have hidden diseases, so I asked Dr. Que to see him and said he was very good, very healthy, and as strong as an ox. But who I can imagine that he will have a stroke, and Shan'er...

Maybe we killed too many people. It's okay. Your Majesty, don't worry. If you don't have an heir, you can have no heir. Just bury Brother Huo and I together after you die. Liu Han said, with tears rolling in his eyes. Are these tears real or fake, so they never fell.

"I'm sorry for you."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was also a little sentimental and felt very guilty, but he felt relieved at the same time. What is the difference between a person without an heir and a eunuch?
In this way, no matter what, it would be difficult for Liu Han to threaten his and the prince's status. After all, Liu Han belonged to the clan.He comforted Liu Han for a while. The two of them seemed to have a deep love for each other, as if they were father and son. They were loyal and virtuous on the surface, but they had their own secrets in their hearts.

Liu Che even wanted to adopt one of the sons of Liu Han's brother, King Qinghe Gang Liu Yi, to him, but Liu Han refused.

Helpless, he could only reward Liu Han with more property and be more lenient to him, which was the effect Liu Han wanted.

Later, Liu Han stayed at home when he had nothing to do. He occasionally went to the Prince's Mansion and rarely went to court, but no one dared to ignore his status.

On this day, Liu Han came to see Zhao Lan again at Lanlinghou Mansion.

"You don't want to go out and have fun? Are you such a homebody?"

Zhao Lan is still so beautiful, with eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like stars, red lips and white teeth, and a charming face.Her voice was clear and sweet, and her manners were elegant and graceful. "Will you let me out?"

"Of course." Zhao Lan rolled her eyes at her, "I know you have the conditions. Let me tell you a secret. Back then, Qin Shihuang practiced herbal medicine and it was actually a success."

Liu Han jumped up and said, "What? How is it possible? How can there be elixir of longevity in the world? Then why is he still dead?"

"It's just that they took over."

"Are they the ones you're talking about?"

"Who else but them?"

Liu Han felt that his views were beginning to waver again, but he still didn't believe it.

"Let me tell you another secret."

"What secret?"

"Do you know what is used to refine the elixir of longevity?"

"what?"

"The flesh and blood of the first generation."

"First Generation?"

"For example, you, the body of the first wearer, we call it the first generation. As long as you are not killed, you can live for 400 years, or even longer. Your flesh and blood is like Tang Monk's flesh. If it is used to make elixirs, , one pill can make a person live 200 to 300 years, isn’t this considered a medicine of longevity?”

Liu Han felt a chill, "Didn't you say we have eternal life?"

"Yes, that is consciousness, or soul. For example, this body of mine is the fifth. The next few times are more like reincarnation, awakening the memory of the past life, which is difficult to control. Sometimes a reincarnation is separated by hundreds of years. It will take some time to wake up, or even longer."

Liu Han was a little confused, so he didn't take her out after all. He hurriedly comforted her and left.

However, he didn't leave for long when a person walked out of the clothes cabinet next to him. It was Ayimei.

"How's it going? Little sister, have you heard it? Are you tempted to kill your lover and make the elixir of life so that you can live for 300 years? You can wait for the next time traveler and then kill him. It can live another 300 years."

Zhao Lan looked at her with a half-smile, then walked over and whispered in her ear.

Ayimei's heart trembled, and then she refused, "I won't hurt or betray him."

"Haha, don't tell me so early. If you contacted me secretly, evaded and dismissed the guards, didn't you already betray him?"

"I'm just trying to figure out why he's distancing himself from me."

"Now I know that you and him are not destined to be in the same world. He can sit back and watch the rise and fall of the dynasty, but you can only become a piece of loess."

Zhao Lan said "Oh" and took off a piece of hair from Zhao Lan's head.
"Sister, is this white hair?" She took the hair, took a look and continued: "Ah, I'm sorry, I saw it wrong, it's not white hair. Sister, you are over 30, you look really good. She is as beautiful as a flower, but in a few years, her hair will turn gray, and her appearance will also age. It will happen very soon, too fast for you to react..."

“In another five years, the skin will lose its elasticity and wrinkles, fine lines and sagging will appear, and in another ten years, discoloration, spots and dullness of the skin may appear. In addition, the skin may become dry, which no one wants to Touched..."

Zhao Lan slowly talked about the process of getting older, from head to toe, from the inside out, her words seemed to have magic power and made people feel scared.

"Stop talking, isn't it just death?" Ayimei felt that the abyss seemed to be staring at her, and interrupted Zhao Lan, "I will not cooperate with you, let alone hurt Mr. Hou."

As she said that, she turned around and left. Before taking a few steps, Zhao Lan's faint voice came from behind, "Don't you want to stay with him forever?"

Ayimei paused for a moment, then quietly slipped out of Zhao Lan's room under the cover of night. Xiong Da, who was in charge of guarding outside, might be old. Perhaps he thought the Hou Mansion was safe and his vigilance dropped, so he never noticed her.

Zhao Lan in the room smiled and said to herself: "Actually, death is not scary, it is just a moment. It is scary to watch oneself grow old slowly, especially for a beautiful woman."

"The feeling of being betrayed by the woman you love is the most delicious, interesting, and interesting!"

She said, with memories and vicissitudes in her eyes, and a hint of meaning.
