Five hundred and fiftieth chapters family troubles
Liu Xiu gave rewards to Fu Jun, Deng Feng, Deng Chen, Yin Shi, and Yin Xing who escorted Yin Lihua to Luoyang. From this, we can also see how important Yin Lihua is in Liu Xiu's mind. wavv
After the banquet was over, Liu Xiu deliberately left Fu Jun, Deng Chen, Deng Feng, Yin Shi, and Yin Xing behind, and went to the side hall to drink tea to sober up. While drinking tea, Liu Xiu looked at Fu Jun and asked
: "Ziwei, how is your injury?"
Fu Jun bowed to Liu Xiu and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I have been resting along the way. I am feeling much better now."
Liu Xiu sighed: "If it weren't for Ziwei's desperate protection, the eldest sister and Lihua would probably be in danger now."
Fu Jun said quickly: "It was the humble minister who failed to fulfill his duty of protection, causing the madam and the eldest princess to be frightened on the road."
Liu Xiu waved his hand and said apologetically: "When I was a child, my family was poor. In order not to burden my uncle, my eldest sister took the initiative to live with her mother in the countryside of Runan. She has been living in the village for these years and has never seen the world. It is rude.
I hope Ziwei will take care of you and don't worry about it."
When Fu Jun heard this, he immediately stood up and left the table, knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Your Majesty, you will punish me!"
Liu Xiu waved his hand and said: "In private, there is no need to be so polite. We just want to be the same as before and say whatever we have."
Fu Jun stood up, knelt down and sat back on the mat, his admiration for Liu Xiu deepening in his heart. This aspect of Liu Xiu is indeed very admirable, and his attitude towards others will not change due to the change of status.
Not the same. When he was at the lowest point in his life, he was tolerant and neither humble nor overbearing. When he was at the peak of his life, he was not arrogant or complacent. It is easy to say the words "not surprised by honor or disgrace", but those who can really do this,
There are really not many in the world.
Liu Xiu changed the topic and asked: "In Yinshan, do you know the identities of the assassins in black who attacked you?"
Deng Feng answered: "I thought that the other party was probably from the Red Eyebrow Army. At that time, the soldiers and horses of the Red Eyebrow Army were nearby!"
Liu Xiu rubbed his chin and pondered without saying anything. Fu Jun said: "Those black-clothed assassins may indeed be members of the Red Eyebrow Army! However, there is one thing that is puzzling to me. The actions of the black-clothed assassins are different from the Red Eyebrow Army.
The large group of people was a little out of touch. At that time, the black-clothed assassins had successfully held us back. If the Red Eyebrow Army soldiers and horses could arrive in time, we would be unable to fly. However, the Red Eyebrow Army soldiers and horses are ten miles away!"
Speaking of which, he always felt that there was a lack of connection and communication between the two.
Liu Xiu looked at Long Yuan and asked, "Long Yuan, have you sent anyone to investigate?"
Long Yuan nodded and said: "Your Majesty, I have sent people to investigate."
"What were the results of the investigation?"
"No tattoos were found on the assassin's body."
Liu Xiu squinted his eyes. If there were no tattoos, then they were not Si'a's assassins. However, just because they were not Si'a's assassins did not mean that they were not from the Red Eyebrow Army. He asked: "What else was found?"
Long Yuan shook his head and said: "The assassin's body was very clean, leaving no clues on it. As for the assassins who escaped, my subordinates have not found any trace of them."
Liu Xiu nodded and did not ask any more questions. He said cheerfully: "Everyone has worked hard along the way. I have already arranged the residence for you. After everyone goes back, have a good rest!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" everyone said in unison.
I chatted a few words about home affairs with Deng Chen, Deng Feng, Yin Shi and Yin Xing. Seeing Liu Xiu yawning again and again, everyone stood up and said goodbye to Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu did not hold back. After everyone left, Liu Xiu, who had looked tired just now, immediately became energetic, his eyes brightened, and he went straight to the harem with great interest.
He came to the West Palace, which was the palace he had arranged for Yin Lihua. When he entered the West Palace, the maids walking back and forth in the courtyard saluted and said in unison: "Your Majesty!"
Liu Xiu ignored everyone and strode into the main hall of the West Palace. When he saw Yin Lihua sitting on the couch in the main hall, Liu Xiu slowed down and walked forward step by step.
"Lihua!" Liu Xiu called Yin Lihua's name softly. Yin Lihua raised her head. At this time, her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were blurred. Under the reflection of the candlelight, she was even more beautiful.
"Husband..." Just now during the banquet of the female family members, Yin Lihua also drank a few more drinks, and now her head was a little dizzy. She first called her husband, but then she felt something was wrong, so she changed her words: "Your Majesty."
Liu Xiu came to Yin Lihua, knelt down and looked at her appearance carefully. He felt that she was thinner than when he left home.
He held Yin Lihua's catkins and said softly: "I still want to hear Lihua call me husband."
Yin Lihua's hazy eyes became clearer. She raised her hand and gently touched Liu Xiu's cheek. In Liu Xiu's eyes, Yin Lihua had lost weight, but in Yin Lihua's eyes, Liu Xiu had lost weight.
No weight loss?
Liu Xiu was a diligent emperor. After he ascended the throne, he did not enjoy the blessings of the emperor, but had more things to worry about.
Since he moved to Luoyang, he can only sleep for almost three hours a day, and spends most of his time dealing with various government and military affairs.
"Husband has lost weight." She murmured.
When Liu Xiu heard this, his heart felt warm and sour. He pulled Yin Lihua into his arms and hugged her tightly. His chin rested on Yin Lihua's shoulder, smelling the fragrance of her bun, and he squinted his eyes comfortably.
, said: "In the past two years, I have been away from home, leaving Lihua alone and suffering."
Yin Lihua said nothing, but tears rolled down her cheeks like broken pearls.
"Does Lihua blame me?"
Liu Xiu's question was a double entendre. He was asking whether Yin Lihua blamed him for leaving her alone in the empty house for so long. She was also asking whether Yin Lihua blamed him for marrying another wife.
Yin Lihua shook her head slowly and said: "My husband wants to do big things and achieve great things. Although Lihua cannot help my husband, she will not drag him down."
Liu Xiu was moved and hugged Yin Lihua tighter. After a long time, he said quietly: "I am in Hebei, with no relatives, no roots and no foundation. Liu Xuan is eyeing me, and Wang Lang is bent on putting me to death. At that time,
The support of King Zhending is very important to me..."
Before Liu Xiu could finish speaking, Yin Lihua withdrew from his embrace, raised her slender jade fingers, pressed them against Liu Xiu's lips, and said softly: "Husband, you don't need to explain to Lihua, Lihua understands."
Liu Xiu pulled down her little hand, hugged her in his arms again, and whispered in her ear: "I am in Hebei, and I miss you every day. I miss you very much, I really miss you...
"I wanted to take you to Hebei earlier, but I didn't dare. I was afraid that Liu Xuan would be bad for you, and that picking you up would be harmful to you..." At this point, Liu Xiu's eyes also became mist-filled.
Yin Lihua couldn't help it anymore, she wrapped her arms around his waist, pressed her face into his arms, and cried loudly.
Liu Xiu married Guo Shengtong in Hebei. It is impossible to say that she has no resentment in her heart at all, unless Yin Lihua does not love Liu Xiu at all.
Now after listening to Liu Xiu's words, the resentment and hatred in Yin Lihua's heart have disappeared without a trace. At this time, she no longer thinks about anything else, she is just a wife reunited with her husband after a long separation.
Liu Xiu hugged Yin Lihua, caressed her jade back, and let her cry in his arms, her tears wetting her crown.
"Husband, please don't leave Lihua alone anymore!" Yin Lihua said while crying in Liu Xiu's arms.
When Liu Xiu heard this, his heart almost broke. He nodded heavily and choked up: "Yes! From now on, I will never be a husband again!"
Just as Liu Xiu and Yin Lihua were hugging each other and whispering in love, Zhang Kun's voice came from outside the palace door: "Your Majesty!"
Yin Lihua was shocked and hurriedly wiped the tears on her face. Then she found that a large area of Liu Xiu's clothes had been soaked by her crying, and her face showed a nervous look.
Dirty the emperor's crown clothes is not a trivial matter. Even if Liu Xiu is not surprised, if word spreads about it, it will be very bad for her reputation.
Liu Xiu waved his hand to her indifferently, and then asked: "Zhang Kun, what's the matter?"
"Your Majesty, Mr. Guo is not feeling well."
Liu Xiu frowned, pondered for a moment, and said, "I'll go visit you again tomorrow morning."
Yin Lihua whispered: "Sister Guo is pregnant with Liujia and feels unwell. This is not a trivial matter!"
Of course Liu Xiu knew that Guo Shengtong was pregnant and unwell and that the matter was of great importance, but now he really didn't want to leave. He patted Yin Lihua's hand and said, "There is an imperial doctor in the palace, so it shouldn't be a serious problem."
Seeing that Liu Xiu didn't want to leave, Yin Lihua felt very sweet in her heart, but she still said: "Your Majesty, please go and have a look. If Sister Guo is sick, it will be safer if Your Majesty is present."
Hearing that Yin Lihua no longer called her husband, but your majesty, Liu Xiu sighed helplessly, looked at Yin Lihua for a while, and finally stood up, bent over, and whispered in her ear: "Why?
Come back as soon as you go!"
After saying that, Liu Xiu turned around and walked out quickly. Looking at Liu Xiu's leaving figure, Yin Lihua's heart was full of ups and downs. She wanted Liu Xiu to stay and talk to her about the relationship between husband and wife.
Love, but also worried that something has really changed on Guo Shengtong's side.
Liu Xiu went to Guo Shengtong's Age. When he arrived, he found that his eldest sister Liu Huang was also there. He was surprised and said: "The eldest sister hasn't left yet?"
He also bought a large and magnificent mansion for Liu Huang in Luoyang, and it was right next to the palace.
Liu Huang rolled his eyes at him and said dissatisfiedly: "Axiu, Shengtong's stomach felt uncomfortable during dinner tonight, and now it hurts even more. If you weren't here to accompany Shengtong, where did you go?"
Liu Xiu said with a smile: "Sister, I am in the West Palace!"
After Liu Huang heard this, he suddenly became angry and snorted heavily.
Liu Xiu was puzzled and asked, "Did Lihua offend my eldest sister in any way on the way?"
It would have been better if he didn't ask, but this question made Liu Huang even more angry. She looked around and saw a eunuch following Liu Xiu, and waved impatiently: "You go and wait!"
Zhang Kun shrank his neck and stood there without daring to move. He looked at Liu Xiu cautiously. When the latter nodded, he bowed and retreated not far away.
Liu Huang walked up to Liu Xiu and asked in a low voice: "Axiu, do you know about Yin Lihua and Deng Feng?"
Liu Xiu looked at a loss. Seeing this, Liu Huang became even more angry and said angrily: "Axiu, I can see clearly along the way. Yin Lihua and Deng Feng are flirting back and forth. I think there must be something between them.
…”
Before she could finish her words, Liu Xiu waved her hand and said, "Sister, please stop talking! Although Lihua and Yuan Zhi are childhood sweethearts, they are innocent and innocent, and there is absolutely nothing that worries my eldest sister. Such words,
Sister, please don’t talk about it again."
"Axiu, sister is worried about you..."
"Lihua is a person who knows how to show off her heart." Seeing the obvious displeasure on Liu Xiu's face, Liu Huang muttered angrily: "I think she is just a vixen, and now Axiu is completely fascinated by her."
I'm dizzy..."
"Sister!" Liu Xiu was really unhappy now and interrupted Liu Huang in a rare and serious tone.
Seeing the faint flash of anger in Liu Xiu's eyes, Liu Huang finally stopped chewing on Yin Lihua's tongue, pulled Liu Xiu's sleeve and said, "Okay, okay, if you don't like to hear it, I won't."
I said it! Let’s go, let’s go see Shengtong!”
Liu Xiu looked at Liu Huang, feeling very angry but unable to vent his anger. In the end, he just shook his head helplessly and walked into the hall.
If Liu is like a father to Liu Xiu, then Liu Huang is like a mother to Liu Xiu.
When he was young, Liu Huang had to take care of the housework and raise his younger brothers and sisters, which was indeed very hard.
Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. Liu Xiu is capable of starting from scratch and bringing peace to the world, but he has a lot of headaches when it comes to housework, and often even feels that he can't exert any energy.
