The Luan driving team slowly drove into the Youzhou Palace in a low-pressure atmosphere. Emperor Liu, who was dressed in mink fur, looked a bit bloated. As he got out of the car, the wind and frost slapped Emperor Liu's face. His face shrouded in frost was really shocking.
Don't dare to look sideways.
"Welcome Your Majesty!" Except for the Queen, all the accompanying concubines, princes, and princesses have arrived, respectfully waiting for the return of Emperor Liu, the head of the family.
The two concubines, Gao and Zhe, were the main ones. The noble concubine accompanied her a little more carefully. Concubine Zhe looked calm but looked rather haggard, with obvious worry in her eyes.
"Where is the queen?" Emperor Liu asked with a cold face.
"I'm in the palace, don't worry, officials. The imperial doctor has already diagnosed and treated me. I'm just short of breath and attacking my heart. I just need to calm down and rest, and I can slowly recover!" Concubine Gao said.
After hearing this, Emperor Liu still had no expression on his face. He glanced at the people who were greeting him. He didn't know how long he had been waiting in the cold wind. Everyone's face was red from the cold and they were still tense. The younger princes were even more nervous.
Some shivering.
In response to this, Emperor Liu finally sighed, waved his hands and said: "I have told you before, there is no need to wait! It's windy and cold outside, so everyone is standing. Everyone should go back to their own places to get rid of the cold. Don't get cold.
!”
After Emperor Liu said these words, his momentum dropped, and the nobles of the Tian family present also relaxed a little. They probably knew that Emperor Liu was in a bad mood, so they left without much entanglement. After bowing, they resigned honestly.
"Xiao Shi, please stay for a moment and take me to see your mother!" Emperor Liu called to the tenth prince Liu Zhao.
"Yes!" The slender boy with obvious childishness excited and bowed in response.
The tenth prince, Liu Zhao, is the third son born to Queen Fu. He is thirteen years old. He is obviously a little afraid of Emperor Liu.
Inside the sleeping hall, the greenhouse was like spring, blocking out the cold wind and frost. Emperor Liu stepped into the inner hall and was immediately surrounded by a burst of warmth. He took a sniff and found that except for a touch of sweet fragrance, there was no expected smell of soup. He subconsciously
Then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Under the service of the plump female officials, Emperor Liu took off his outer robe, shook off the chill from his body, and then passed through the bead curtain to visit the queen.
Empress Fu was lying on the phoenix couch, wrapped in a brocade quilt, with a sick look on her face, and her emotional state was obviously bad. Liu Zhao stepped forward, knelt on the side of the couch, choked with sobs, and said with concern: "Mother, are you feeling better?
!Dad is back!”
Looking at his own flesh and blood, Da Fu obviously thought of his other son who is still missing. He raised his hand to touch Liu Zhao's head and smiled reluctantly: "I'm fine. I just need to rest for a while. Don't worry!"
The thirteen-year-old prince was obviously not too naive and understood what comfort meant. He was enjoying his mother's touch, his eyes were red, and he just prayed for her to recover quickly.
Emperor Liu stood beside him. Although the queen didn't pay attention to him, he could tell that the queen's words were also meant for him, so he shouldn't worry.
Approaching the phoenix couch, Emperor Liu sat down with his buttocks raised, gesturing for Liu Zhao to step aside and leave room for the couple to talk. At this time, Emperor Liu's face was as gentle as ice and snow, and he looked at the queen with even more eyes.
With some pity.
The empress looked sickly, and there were a few obvious white hairs interspersed in the loose hair. Emperor Liu gently brushed it with his hand, helped her smooth it out, and sighed: "Just to avoid you worrying too much, I'm hiding this from you."
I didn’t even think about it, but it was still leaked!”
"I know!" Seeing Emperor Liu's concern, Da Fu nodded, with an understanding expression on his haggard face: "In my heart, I don't blame you for hiding it from me!"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Liu was a little surprised. You must know that a few months ago, because of Liu Fang and Liu Min's expedition to Mobei with the army, Da Fu was extremely angry. But now, after receiving the news that was almost bad news, everyone was angry.
Even though he was sick, he seemed so calm, neither noisy nor fussy, and showed understanding.
Probably sensing Emperor Liu's thoughts, Dafu said bitterly: "I am not an unreasonable person. Ever since they joined the army, I have been worried about them, but I also understand that the general will inevitably die on the battlefield. Liu Min and the others went to the battlefield.
Even for generals, the troops are fierce and dangerous, and any mistakes or accidents are unpredictable.
I also know what you are thinking. For this Northern Expedition, hundreds of thousands of soldiers fought bloody battles at the front, millions of people tried their best to support it, and countless officers and soldiers died on the battlefield. As your son, representing the royal family, how can it be wrong?
Can you just seek advantages and avoid disadvantages?
It’s just that I have three sons in total, but now only one, Liu Zhao, is still under my knees, and Liu Min’s life and death are even more uncertain..."
After saying that, Empress Fu was already choked with sobs. Seeing his sad state, Emperor Liu felt touched and felt even more distressed. He quickly stroked his chest and said comfortingly: "Don't be excited! The imperial doctor said that you are out of breath and attacking your heart. You should calm down."
Recuperate!”
Dafu slowly calmed down. Emperor Liu reached out and gently brushed away some tears from the corners of his eyes and said: "How can we take the news from the Khitan people seriously? I was in Shanyang and learned it from the mouths of the captured Khitan ministers.
, Yang Ye and the others were indeed defeated, but the entire army was not annihilated, and all the main generals escaped.
Nowadays, although they are trapped in Mobei and their whereabouts are unknown, the unknown means hope. They have experienced so many dangers and hardships in their northern expedition. I believe they can still overcome it this time, and their lives should not be cut off!
The Wude Division and the Military Intelligence Division have sent a large number of manpower to search northward, and there are already some traces. After their defeat, they retreated westward. So far, although there is no exact whereabouts, they have not fallen into the hands of the Khitan people. Otherwise, they have not fallen into the hands of the Khitan people.
, the Liao Kingdom has long used them as hostages.
Even if they are still on the run, there is still hope of coming back! I promise you, we will definitely find them!"
At the end of the sentence, Emperor Liu held Da Fu's hand tightly and made a firm promise to Da Fu. Although he knew that this was still to comfort himself, Da Fu still forced a smile on his face and said: "I hope so!"
"Worrying and thinking will only harm your body. Don't worry too much about this now. Take a good rest and let me recover your body!" Emperor Liu stared at the big talisman and said forcefully.
Seeing this, Da Fu's eyes became more energetic, and he nodded slightly and said, "The officials have orders, so I can only obey them!"
Seeing that Da Fu's depressed mood had eased, Emperor Liu's expression became a little warmer, and he helped her cover the quilt considerately. Da Fu also silently felt the emperor's concern, and suddenly his expression changed and he said: "There is something, you have to agree to it."
I!"
"Speak!" Emperor Liu said directly, with an expression that said I would definitely agree.
"I know you have issued a ban before. Don't blame Concubine Xian. Cao Bin was forced by me, so he violated your ban and reported the expeditionary army. Don't punish him or interfere in military affairs. If you want to
If you blame me, just punish me..." Da Fu said calmly.
Hearing this, Emperor Liu smiled and said: "Don't worry, I don't mean to blame you. I feel guilty about Concubine Xian, how can I bear to blame her! Cao Bin... that's all, I know
I'm afraid he was extremely helpless because of his nature, so I just told you the truth.
As for interfering in politics, there is no need to say it so seriously. You and I have been husband and wife for so many years, and I still don’t understand you? If this matter hadn’t been related to the safety of our two sons, you wouldn’t have gone so far..."
"Thank you!" Da Fu's whole body relaxed completely.
The husband and wife communicated harmoniously for a long time, and after a heart-to-heart talk, Da Fu Tan pushed Emperor Liu and said: "I'm not seriously injured, I just need to rest for a while. You are going back to Youzhou. You are tired even if you think about it.
Go and have a rest!
Go to Concubine Xian, Liu Fang is her flesh and blood, and she feels uncomfortable in this situation! She has always been a tough and strong-willed person, but these days she is having a hard time letting go and is almost in tears. You should comfort her...
....”
"Yes!" Emperor Liu responded without being pretentious. The affection between the two is deep. With Da Fu's current status, he doesn't need to please Emperor Liu by inviting favors, nor does he keep Emperor Liu by his side.
She also has the confidence to be generous and generous.
When leaving Dafu's dormitory, Emperor Liu's brows darkened again, not because of the incident between the Mobei Han army and the two princes, but because he was worried about the queen's health. The queen had been seriously ill once before, and this time
Later, he fell ill again. Although there was a reason for the incident, it still made Emperor Liu feel worried.
"You must take good care of the queen for me. If I go on a business trip, you are the only one I have to ask questions about!" To the palace people, Emperor Liu didn't have a good face. His tone was stern, almost threatening, and he said to several serving female officials, Gong E.
"Yes!" A group of beautiful ladies were so frightened that they responded nervously, trembling pretentiously.
Emperor Liu probably felt that it was unseemly to scare people like this, so he waved his hand and ordered Yantuo: "Go to Concubine Xian!"
"Yes!" Yantuo responded, not even daring to delay, and immediately led the way.
