"Prime Minister Wu refuses to retire, but don't worry, I will definitely overcome the difficulties and implement the changes." Zhang Yi said, he wanted to make the father and daughter feel at ease. Seeing the king's face suddenly become haggard, he
It's extremely sad.
King Liu Kai is his mentor, his Bole, and his future father-in-law. If he suddenly passes away, leaving behind a kingdom full of dangers and a poor little daughter, how can anyone accept this?
Seeing Princess Xiaoliu crying, Zhang Yi couldn't help but shed tears of sadness.
"The king needs to rest, breathe steadily, and not be exposed to any stimulation." The imperial physician gave the king a Jiuxin Pill and spoke.
Zhang Yi and Xiao Liu quickly wiped away their tears and controlled their emotions.
The guards brought a stretcher.
"What are you doing?" King Liu Kai shouted, and then said with a smile, "I'm not at the point where I can't walk yet, so don't worry."
His father has always been a strong man, and he is an iron man. Xiao Liu knew this and hurriedly stepped forward to support him. Zhang Yi and Xiao Liu supported the king from left to right and slowly walked to the bedroom and asked him to lie down.
"Father, don't think about anything. Everything is fine and everything will get better and better!" Xiao Liu half-knelt beside the bed, kissed her father's hand and comforted her.
King Liu Kai smiled slightly and raised his hand to touch his beloved daughter's long hair. Then, unexpectedly, he grabbed Zhang Yi's hand and spoke earnestly.
"Young man, you have to hurry up!"
This sentence almost made Zhang Yi burst into tears. He knelt on the ground and held King Liu Kai's hand tightly. His hands were extremely rough, covered with calluses and scars, which were the marks left by many years of battle.
Now, the king's time is running out!
So he searched all over the world for his daughter to rely on, so he rushed to Mopan City with great hope, so he did not hesitate to use a hundred thousand troops to force Zhang Yi to come to Chang'an...
Zhang Yi fought back tears and was speechless, so he could only nod his head repeatedly.
The imperial doctor standing aside was anxious. He only had eyes for the patient, so he urged Zhang Yi and Xiao Liu to leave. The king was already excited enough.
…
After leaving the dormitory, Xiao Liu felt dizzy, staggered, and lost her mind.
Zhang Yi held her hand, but Xiao Liu did not break away, and took Zhang Yi to a bedroom. Zhang Yi saw two lifelike paintings hanging on the wall.
One is a portrait of King Liu Kai.
The other one is undoubtedly Princess Xiaoliu's mother.
She is an extremely beautiful woman with a pair of big and bright eyes, and her appearance is almost exactly the same as Xiaoliu. Her eyes are kind and gentle, and people regard her as Guanyin. She is indeed like a fairy descending to the world, and she treats everyone
All are sincere and caring.
I just regret that God was so ruthless and let her leave so early.
"She is my mother."
"I know that everyone I met in Chang'an loved her, and so did I."
"If only I were a boy, my father wouldn't be so worried."
"Boys and girls are the same. You are the pride of your father."
"I'm scared, brother, I'm so scared!"
Princess Xiaoliu threw herself into Zhang Yi's arms and cried bitterly. She had lost her mother and half of the sky had fallen. She was afraid of losing her father.
"Don't be afraid, Xiaoliu, I will accompany you," Zhang Yi said in tears, "You must be strong, always strong. Parents' biggest wish is that their children are safe and happy. I will always accompany you and take care of you.
, protect you!”
The two hugged tightly and cried together.
After crying for a long time, Xiao Liu calmed down and looked at Zhang Yi with misty eyes.
"Father said, you have to hurry up."
"I will seize the time, Xiaoliu."
"Besides official business, what else is there?"
"Also...as soon as the king is well, I will formally propose that I want to marry Princess Xiaoliu. I will protect Princess Xiaoliu with my life, and I will cherish her as I cherish my own eyes..."
"You still call me king? Call me father!"
Xiaoliu said and started to cry with emotion, joy and sadness intertwined in her heart.
…
A few days later, King Liu Kai's condition improved, and the team from Mopan City finally arrived in Chang'an.
Twenty carriages were loaded with gifts.
Xiaolong, Niu Ben, Xiao Han, Shi Gandang, Anu and Yue Yaer are all here.
There are also Song Laohei and Zhang Pingan, they are elders. According to Chinese tradition, the marriage proposal ceremony requires the presence of the elders.
Zhang Yi hugged everyone warmly and expressed his feelings of missing him.
At present, there is constant friction between Greater China and Little China, and there are constant wars rather than small wars. The Mopan City area has received strong support from Old China. The situation has stabilized, and life and production have returned to normal, so everyone can travel with confidence.
It just took a lot of trouble to prepare the gifts. The sworn brother is going to propose to the princess. This is earth-shattering good news for the brothers and the people of Mopan City.
After all, they are a royal family, and the princess is so rich that she must give out decent gifts, so everyone spent their efforts to collect many rare treasures.
Zhang Yi suggested in the letter that the skin of the giant snake and various specialties would be enough, and no valuables were needed. Unexpectedly, no one listened to him this time.
"This is not a personal matter, it is a national matter, and there must be no carelessness!" Master Song raised the engagement to the highest level with just one sentence, and everyone agreed.
Zhang Yi and Ye Fei welcomed the arrival of the team and settled them all in the courtyard near the palace.
Facing the many precious gifts, Ye Fei sighed, how could they be so luxurious? The arrogance of Mopan City was beyond imagination, no less than that of a big country.
Zhang Yi said something that was too much, and was immediately refuted by everyone.
"Yi'er, I'm a princess. You can be frugal at ordinary times, but you can't lose face at critical moments!" Zhang Pingan said.
Ye Fei couldn't help but laugh.
As soon as Zhang Yi saw everyone's expressions, he knew that nothing he said would be of any use, so he had no choice but to nod and introduce everyone to Ye Fei one by one.
The brothers all looked at Ye Fei carefully. The sworn brother had already mentioned in the letter this Ye Fei brother who was fiery, loud-toned, and had excellent qinggong. However, he didn’t say much about it later. He only said that Ye Fei would accompany him every day. It was a very fulfilling life.
I have to say that the brothers are all jealous.
Xiaolong and Xiao Han had the best eyesight. When Ye Fei was joking with everyone, they pulled Zhang Yi aside.
"Yi Ge, do you really know Brother Ye Fei?" Xiaolong asked.
"I understand, Xiaolong, I understand Ye Fei just as I understand you." Zhang Yi said.
"Brother Yi, I think you are in love and have lost your keen judgment," Xiao Han said rudely, "Don't you see that Ye Fei is not a brother? No, I mean, Ye Fei is obviously a Little girl!”
"Well, to be honest, I didn't see it at first, but I discovered it later," Zhang Yi said.
"Then you go horseback riding, mountain climbing, picnicking, and having fun with her!" Xiao Han wondered, "Yi Ge, you don't want to have a wife and a concubine, do you?"
Zhang Yi showed a secretive smile.
Xiaolong understood in an instant and made it clear in one sentence.
"Xiaohan is overthinking, Ye Fei is none other than Xiaoliu!"
