He wanted to have a good talk with Xiaoliu so that she could be mentally prepared.
It’s not easy for a member of the royal family. It’s the center of attention. Once you behave abnormally, the true situation will be exposed. The stakes are high and you have to be cautious.
Arriving at the hospital bed, Zhang Yi saw Xiao Liu sitting quietly on a wooden chair, looking at his sleeping father.
Zhang Yi hugged Xiaoliu's shoulders and combed her somewhat messy long hair with his hands. On the small table beside him was half a bowl of porridge and half a glass of water. Apparently after eating half a bowl of porridge, his father took another drug containing diazepam.
With the medicine, I can sleep until the next morning.
The medical skills of the imperial physician were superb, and even Xiaolong recognized that it was the imperial physician's careful conditioning, coupled with the medicine that allowed his father to enter a deep sleep, that allowed his father to live as long as he did today.
"Liu'er, you also need to eat something and have a good rest." Zhang Yi lowered his head and looked at Xiao Liu distressedly. Her eyes were red from crying and her face looked haggard.
Zhang Yi pulled her to stand up, but she sat there not wanting to move. After Zhang Yi comforted her for a few words, Xiao Liu stood up and followed Zhang Yi back to their bedroom.
"Liu'er, don't be sad, we need to cheer up." Zhang Yi said, but it was difficult for him to say what to say next.
Xiao Liu sat on the bed, raised her head and stared at Zhang Yi, reached out to touch his face, and murmured: "Brother Yi, you have lost weight, you cried just now... You can't do this, what will I do if you fall down?"
?”
Xiao Liu comforted herself, and Zhang Yi sighed and held her in his arms.
"I will not fall, we all must be strong, we must face reality..."
"I know reality."
The two hugged each other tightly, and Xiao Liu shed tears silently.
"Liu'er, if you are sad, you can cry in my arms, but in front of outsiders, we still have to behave normally..."
"I know normal."
Zhang Yi was a little surprised. Liu'er's speech was different from the past, which made him very worried. He hurriedly examined her face carefully with the help of candlelight.
The pear blossoms are covered with rain, and the jade face is lonely and full of tears. She looks normal, she is just sad and crying.
"I want to say that my father's physical condition is getting worse..." Zhang Yi said slowly, he wanted to tell the truth and let Xiao Liu accept the reality.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Liu said something that Zhang Yi didn't expect: "I know that my father has persisted for so long. In fact, he has long wanted to accompany his mother, but he just can't let me go."
Seeing Zhang Yi's surprised look, Xiao Liu continued: "Don't try to persuade me, Brother Yi, before I met you, I would actually cry every night before falling asleep. But outsiders can't tell, and my father can't tell.
.I know to be strong.”
Zhang Yi sighed unspeakably. How could a smart girl like Xiaoliu not know about her father's condition, which was precarious. She endured the pain every day, but kept laughing to accompany her father. The father and daughter depended on each other.
"I have no regrets, Brother Yi, and neither does my father." Xiao Liu held Zhang Yi's face with both hands. Now, it seemed like she was comforting Zhang Yi, which was beyond Zhang Yi's expectation. "It's been three years, Brother Yi, I
I stayed with my father day and night, I read to him, and my father taught me martial arts. We spent three years happily..."
"This is the most beautiful time for you and your daughter, Liu'er." Zhang Yi said happily.
"Yes, brother Yi, what else can I ask for?" Xiao Liu sighed, "I know that my father's condition is getting worse day by day. I even want to persuade my father to get out of bed as soon as possible and go to accompany my mother. Then the three of us will sleep in the Xianyang Underground Palace.
…”
ah?
Zhang Yi was so frightened that he turned pale and clutched Xiaoliu's shoulders tightly. How could she think so? How could she stop her life?
"Hey, Brother Yi, I know you can't let me go, and I can't let you go either," Xiao Liu said sadly, "Don't do this, I'll scare you. This is what I thought before I met you!"
Zhang Yi finally took a breath and said.
"Liu'er, you must never leave me. I love you just like a father loves a mother. I will protect you for all my life, only you!"
A happy smile appeared on Xiao Liu's face. In fact, since the two met, they had never said anything about their eternal vows. They fell in love at first sight, then got engaged and got married. Everything was so natural and smooth.
"I like to hear what you say. You can say more in the future."
"Yes, I will."
Zhang Yi finally felt at ease. Xiao Liu was not only strong, but also maintained an optimistic attitude. He had underestimated his lover, and she had been mentally prepared.
On the battlefield where thousands of troops were fighting, Xiaoliu could still talk and laugh happily. She inherited her father's fearless nature and was truly a heroine.
This made Zhang Yi respect and love her even more.
"Brother, I originally thought that there was only darkness waiting for me ahead, and my heart died. There were many people coming to propose marriage, such as Wu Liang, and there were many foreign princes, including the princes of the Tsarist Empire, but I couldn't see
These people are like me, and so is my father." Xiaoliu said.
Zhang Yi was really flattered. Of course he knew that a princess as beautiful as Xiaoliu would definitely have many suitors. However, Xiaoliu's words revealed something big.
His father said that Wu Rui once persuaded him to form an alliance with the Tsarist Empire and attack the other two countries in China. This was called luring the wolf into the house, and Wu Rui was a traitor! If the prince of the Tsarist Empire rejected his proposal, he would definitely not give up. Based on the above situation, and the Tsarist
Sooner or later the empire will have a war!
This thought passed by in a flash, and Zhang Yi was only concerned about Xiao Liu and his father's funeral arrangements.
"Liu'er, people say that I am the bandit leader of Mopan City. How could you fall in love with me? Moreover, when I first came to the palace to meet my father, my father wanted to betroth you to me, but you, you
Why refuse?"
Zhang Yi has always been a little worried about this matter, but he couldn't say it. The two of them were talking freely tonight and couldn't help but say it out.
Xiao Liu lost his temper, punched Zhang Yi, and said: "My father spared no effort and went to Mopan City to understand your situation. In the end, he recognized you and said that you are a dragon among men. But my father invited you to come to Chang'an, but you didn't
Rejection makes me angry. Are you so arrogant? You, a bandit leader from Mopan City, dare to refuse the invitation of the monarch of the Kingdom of China?"
Zhang Yi hurriedly apologized and explained that Xiao Liu was speaking angrily, but he didn't understand the situation at that time and was afraid that he would be taken hostage if he came to Chang'an. This is what happened next. His father sent an army of 100,000 to insist on letting him come to Chang'an.
No.
"Hey, I was just a frog at the bottom of a well, sitting in a well looking at the sky. How could I know my father's painstaking efforts? I'm sorry, I was wrong..."
"It's good to admit your mistake. People are angry and become a beauty, but we are a husband. When I talk about it, I feel unbalanced in my heart." Xiaoliu said angrily.
