A special area of the medical school is filled with heavily armed soldiers, and everyone entering and leaving must be strictly screened.
The Empress of the Han Dynasty's car had been parked there yesterday.
In the carefully cleaned room, the emperor looked anxious, a little restless, and occasionally stood up and took two steps.
There is another door in the room that leads to the inner room which is closed.
Every time the little fat man stood up, his eyes would look there involuntarily.
The queen was more steady, sitting on the soft couch with a calm expression, stroking her belly from time to time, as if to remind herself to maintain emotional stability.
Zhao Yun's eldest son, Zhao Tong, sat on another couch in the room with Zhao Ma.
Zhao Tong's face was full of worry, but he had to sit there properly in front of the emperor and his elders.
On the contrary, it was Mrs. Zhao, whose face was slightly sad, but also had a certain calmness.
None of the four people spoke, the people serving around them didn't even dare to speak out, and the room was filled with depression.
Just when the little fat man was getting tired of waiting, the door to the inner room finally opened, and Fan A and Li Dangzhi walked out.
Seeing the two people coming out, Zhang Xingcai stood up.
"How is the old general doing?"
"Back to Your Majesty, General Wei has woken up."
"Awake? Great!" Adou was overjoyed, "Then why did the old general fall into coma this time? Have you ever found out the reason?"
Fan A and Li Dangzhi both hesitated, "There is actually no big problem with the general's health..."
"It's not a big problem? How is that possible!" When Adou heard this, he suddenly lost his composure and raised his voice, "Then how could the old general be unconscious?"
Zhang Xingcai spoke to calm the slightly impatient emperor: "Your Majesty, let the two doctors finish their words first."
Then she motioned to the two of them, "You continue."
"No. Returning to Your Majesty and the Queen, the old general is not sick. The reason why he is unconscious is because he is old. Old age leads to insufficient blood and vitality. In addition, the internal organs are stiff and old, and the vitality is no longer there."
Liu, who was neither learned nor skilled, listened impatiently: "Explain it more clearly."
"It's just that the old general's life span has expired."
Liu Chan:......
After a moment of silence, the little fat man asked in a somewhat astringent voice:
"Is there no other way? Is there no other way?"
Fan A and Li Dangzhi were both silent.
The Zhao Ma family next to her opened her mouth to help the two of them:
"Your Majesty, my husband often says that over the years, he has been competing with God for his destiny. If he lives an extra day, he will earn an extra day. My husband knows his destiny and is already satisfied. Why do he need to embarrass these two doctors again?"
My Alang has been seriously ill several times over the years. If it weren't for medical school, my Alang would have died a few years ago.
A Dou's mood was obviously a little disturbed:
"I understand, I understand everything! It's just that I have been protected by the old general since I was a child. I always thought that the old general could... live a few more years, even one or two more years..."
The emperor is a very emotional person, which is a good thing for his ministers.
It's just that an emperor who values emotions may not be a good emperor in many cases.
The queen, on the other hand, was still the only person present who could keep calm:
"Then when is it convenient for us to go in and see the old general? Is there anything we need to pay attention to when we go in?"
Fan A was hesitant and hesitated to speak:
"Back to the queen, just keep quiet, nothing else. After all, General Wei..."
Zhang Xingcai nodded to express his understanding: "Thank you both for your hard work."
Then he ordered the people around him, "Come here and take the two doctors down to rest."
Fan A and Li Dangzhi cannot leave yet. They must live next door and come to check on Zhao Yun's condition at any time.
Even everyone present knew that Zhao Yun's time was probably numbered.
With this heavy mentality, the four of them stepped into the inner room.
Zhao Yun, who was lying on the couch, saw someone coming in and seemed to want to move, but in the end he could only move his lips and say something vaguely.
"Old General, do you have something to say?"
Adou bent down and lowered his head, leaned closer and asked softly.
Zhao Yun muttered again.
Adou still didn't hear clearly. He was a little uneasy, and then glanced at the three people behind him in confusion.
Zhao Ma suggested in a low voice:
"Your Majesty, why don't you let me come?"
Adou quickly stood up straight and gave up his position.
Only then did Zhao Ma come up to Zhao Yun: "Alang, what did you say?"
Zhao Yun seemed to have a look of impatience in his eyes, but he had to repeat the vague words again.
Zhao Ma nodded and translated to the emperor and empress:
"Alang wants to know, has the Prime Minister captured Chang'an?"
Adou said quickly:
"The thieves in Guanzhong have fled and want to withdraw from Guanzhong. The prime minister is leading the army to the east. I believe that good news will come to Chang'an soon."
When Zhao Yun heard this, his cloudy eyes seemed to be shining with some kind of light, and he tried hard to raise his head.
This time, his voice actually started to become clearer:
"Yun, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for the news of returning to the old capital..."
Seeing that Zhao Yun's spirits began to improve after hearing the news, Adou couldn't help but be overjoyed.
On the contrary, the queen standing next to him had a slightly gloomy look in her eyes when she saw Zhao Yun like this.
Adou, who didn't notice the queen's expression at all, opened his mouth to comfort him:
"No, no, I think the news of the Prime Minister's recapture of Chang'an will arrive in a few days. The old general just waits with peace of mind."
Hearing Adou's words, Zhao Yun burst into laughter from his throat.
He looked at Adou, there was kindness in his eyes, but more of it was nostalgia, as if he was remembering the past.
"It's a pity that I can't accompany the Prime Minister to regain Chang'an. It's a pity..."
Zhao Yun murmured to himself, stretched out his hand, trying to grab something, but in the end it slowly slipped away weakly.
Zhao Ma held Zhao Yun's hand tightly and finally burst into tears.
Zhao Tong knelt down in front of the couch with a "pop" sound.
The queen turned her head and wiped her tears quietly.
Adou stared blankly at Zhao Yun, whose eyes were still wide open, with confusion and disbelief on his face.
"Old General..."
The queen gently pulled Adou back to reality. She turned her head slightly and motioned for the two of them to go out, leaving space for Zhao Ma and Zhao Tong.
Adou followed the queen out numbly. After a long time, his dull eyes moved:
"Queen, the old general..."
The queen sighed:
"Your Majesty, my condolences."
Adou sat on the couch outside in a daze, silent for a long time.
Thinking of Zhao Yun's eyes that had been refusing to close, Adou closed his eyes and murmured:
"Old general, he doesn't want to close his eyes!"
Just when the atmosphere in the room was about to become overwhelming, there was a sudden noise outside.
A small yellow door trotted in:
"Your Majesty, General Zhao is back."
Adou didn't react for a moment: "Who?"
However, the queen responded quickly: "It's Zhao Erlang who is back, tell him to come in quickly!"
Zhao Guang, who had run thousands of miles from Hedong to Hanzhong, his whole body covered in mud and sweat, rushed in dusty and dusty, and without anyone seeing him clearly, he shouted: "Sir!"
The two emperors and empresses:...
Zhao Sanqian bent his knees slightly, preparing to kneel down. Halfway through, he finally saw the opposite side clearly. He maintained his posture for three breaths, and then quickly retracted his legs:
"I will finally pay my respects to Your Majesty, Queen. I wish Your Majesty a long life..."
Before he finished his congratulations, Adou interrupted him quietly:
"Get up quickly, how can there be any eternal life in this world?"
As he said that, he rushed to the inner room anxiously: "My lord!"
Adou and the Queen looked at each other and sighed.
Sure enough, a louder cry came from inside: "Sir?"
Zhao Ma, who had just put down his crying, was once again brought to tears by Zhao Guang:
"Erlang, why can't you move two steps faster? Your adults were still asking about the war in Guanzhong just now and refused to close their eyes!"
Zhao Guang threw himself in front of Zhao Yun's bed and cried loudly:
"Sir, it was my fault, I should have been faster!"
"When I came back, the Prime Minister had already arrived at Chang'an City. The thieves in Guanzhong had been driven away. Most of them escaped from Tongguan, and some returned to Jingzhou from Wuguan."
Zhao Guang spoke nonchalantly as if reporting to his own master, and even wiped his face.
The snot and tears mixed together, smearing the dust on his face into gray and black, and adding mud and dirt all over his body.
He looks like a refugee who begged all the way from Guanzhong to Hanzhong.
"In this battle, our big men not only regained Guanzhong, but even Bingzhou Hedong was defeated by my brother..."
Zhao Tong, who was lowering his head and weeping, subconsciously raised his head when he heard his brother calling "brother".
Zhao Guang seemed to be crying too fast, "cough cough cough cough" several times, and after a while he spoke again:
"Bingzhou, Hedong and other places have also been stabilized by General Zhengxi..."
Zhao Yun naturally didn't respond, but Zhao Mashi cried even harder.
She slapped Zhao Guang hard:
"If you had come back earlier and let your family hear the news, why would he not close his eyes?"
Zhao Ma's hand was so strong that he slapped Zhao Erlang until he coughed several more times.
Looking at his lord's open eyes, he endured the grief and reached out his hand to touch his lord's eyes.
I don't know if he really heard Zhao Guang's words and his wish was fulfilled. Zhao Yun's eyes that had been open at first actually closed after Zhao Guang's hands left.
Zhao Mashi:......
Zhao Yun has already passed his seventies. If he lives for another three or four years, he will reach the age of the Zang Dynasty.
During the Three Kingdoms war era, he was a veteran who had been fighting for decades. It was extremely rare for him to die at this age.
In addition, the Zhao family had already been psychologically prepared for this, so after crying, the family arranged Zhao Yun's funeral arrangements as a funeral.
The funeral of the great man who was the spiritual symbol of the army was of a very high standard. Not only did the empress pay homage in person, but the emperor also personally escorted the coffin to Nanzheng and buried it at Longxing in the Han Dynasty.
On the day Zhao Yun was buried, the military report sent from Guanzhong finally arrived in Hanzhong:
The prime minister and Feng Junhou led the army into Chang'an.
The military newspaper was burned by Adou in front of Zhao Yun's grave, shouting:
"Old general, the prime minister has returned to the old capital!"
It was originally a great joy, but when it was announced at the funeral of General Wei, the joy and sorrow caused all the officials from the court and central government who came to attend the funeral to wonder whether to make a smiling face or a crying face.
Just when the rulers and ministers of the Han Dynasty were experiencing sorrow and joy, the whole country of Wei was shrouded in gloom and gloom.
After losing the battle in Guanzhong, the emperor marched eastward to Da Sima. Now it is the Taifu. The Taifu leads the army to withdraw from Guanzhong.
Then the emperor was critically ill, so he hurriedly established a prince.
Now the emperor has passed away.
After all, Cao Rui still failed to survive the winter of the 14th year of Jianxing, just as the fake goddess said.
According to Cao Rui's imperial edict, Prince Cao Fang ascended the throne as emperor, and General Cao Shuang and Taifu Sima Yi jointly assisted the government.
It took less than a month for Empress Yu to rise from concubine to empress, but she once again jumped up a level and was revered as empress dowager.
It is impossible to hide the death of the Wei (pseudo) emperor from the world.
Compared with the currently strictly sealed Han-Wei border, Wu State got the news earlier than Han State.
Sun Quan, the leader of Wu, got the news that Xizuo worked hard to send it back in a hurry. He regretted it so much that his thigh almost broke:
"If I had known this, why didn't I stay in Hefei City for a little longer?"
Thinking back to the time when everyone from the top general Lu Xun on down tried to persuade him to retreat, Sun Quan gritted his teeth again:
"My ministers mistook me!"
As I said before, the thief is most likely bluffing, but why are the generals so timid?
Sun Quan sighed and regretted endlessly.
It happened that at this time, Lu Yi, the school affairs office, personally sent a secret report:
"Your Majesty, news came from Liaodong that Gongsun Yuan responded to our great Wu and sent troops to rebel against the Wei thieves. He fought with Wang Xiong (the governor of Youzhou in Wei State) and others at the Liao Tunnel."
"According to Gongsun Yuan, it rained heavily for more than ten days and the Liao River swelled. Both sides had no choice but to retreat. Now Gongsun Yuan has established himself as King of Yan, changed his reign name to Shaohan, and appointed hundreds of civil and military officials."
"He also sent envoys to grant seals to Xianbei Shanyu in Liaodong, and to confer officials and titles on the border people, in order to lure Xianbei and other barbarians into his wings and wait for an opportunity to invade the northern border of Wei thieves."
"Now Gongsun Yuan has sent an envoy, and he is about to go to His Majesty to grant him the title of Seal and Seal to rectify his name."
When Sun Quan heard this, he felt even more regretful:
"At that time, the Wei rebels were being persecuted by the Shu people in the west and the Liaodong invaders in the north. It was the right time for me to attack Hefei from the south! But my ministers and generals misled me!"
He only remembered that his subordinates advised him to retreat, but he forgot how embarrassed he was when he retreated.
Seeing that His Majesty was filled with regret and even gnashing his teeth, Lu Yi's heart couldn't help but move.
The emperor's expedition to Hefei failed again, and Lu Yi had naturally known about it for a long time.
This kind of thing is considered a taboo topic for a lucky person like Lu Yi, so if you can, don't mention it.
But seeing His Majesty's appearance at this moment gave him a hint of opportunity:
"Your Majesty, being angry is harmful to your health, so you should take care of yourself."
"How can I not be angry? A great opportunity has been let go in vain. I heard that Sima Yi has led his army to withdraw from Guanzhong, and the Shu people are afraid that they have already captured Guanzhong."
"As for Da Wu, he should have taken the opportunity to capture Hefei, but he missed it in vain, which is really my regret!"
Lu Yi's eyes flashed and he said cautiously:
"I have heard that your Majesty is taking the lead in attacking Hefei in this battle. However, the generals in the army are urging your Majesty to retreat. Therefore, I believe that this is not your Majesty's fault but the fault of the generals. Why should your Majesty blame yourself?"
Sun Quan had a gloomy face and said nothing.
When Lu Yi saw Sun Quan's expression, he immediately understood that he was speaking to His Majesty's heart.
After confirming this, Lu Yi immediately said:
"As far as I know, Zhuge Ke is the vanguard in this battle, and the general is personally protecting the rear."
"Zhuge Ke has little battle experience and lacks experience. He does not know the changes in the situation before the formation, so he is deceived by the thieves."
"I think that the great general is one of the few who knows military skills. Even if you look at the world, there are not many people who can compare with him."
"So I think it's possible that the General had other ideas at the time and didn't make it clear to His Majesty? If so, why didn't Your Majesty consult with the General?"
It's okay that Lu Yi didn't say the last sentence. Sun Quan, who was just regretful at first, heard this sentence and his mentality suddenly became a little unbalanced:
"With regard to the important matter of the war, is there anything that should be hidden and pushed back without being explained clearly?"
"Even if the messenger was worried about losing confidentiality at that time, wouldn't he be able to take the initiative to explain it to me after he returned from the retreat, and would I have to ask in person?"
Yes, everyone started calling themselves me.
It can be seen that Sun Quan was indeed very upset about the defeat in this battle.
The emperor can make mistakes and he can correct them.
But as a minister, if you don't stand up and correct your mistakes, then it's your fault.
Otherwise, what do I want you to do?
Seeing His Majesty's hint of anger, Lu Yi smiled slightly and quietly retreated, hiding his merit and fame.
Among the officials who wrote a letter criticizing the school affairs office, the one with the most powerful authority was the general.
Lu Yi believed that he was just protecting himself.
