Chapter 523

Su Buwei covered the blanket for the emperor, then hung his head and stood half a step behind the emperor. He had been standing for more than ten years and would not deviate an inch. The emperor has stopped taking medicine for some time. Although he has been coughing up blood, he looks much better. This surprised Su Buwei. It seemed that there was no medicine, but it was better for the emperor's condition.

But neither he nor the emperor ever suspected that there was something wrong with the medicine prepared by master Wan. People like Wan Xingchen will not do anything in the medicine even if they are no longer dissatisfied with the Yang family. Although he is old, he still has a straightforward temperament. And he doesn't have to.

If one day he really plans to do something to the Yang family, no matter how tall the wall of Taiji palace is, he can't stop him.

In fact, the emperor understood that his days were really running out.

"It's cool at night. Your majesty can sit for a while and go back."

Su Buwei gave a low advice.

The Emperor gave a sound and still looked up at the sky: "it looks like it's going to rain... Good, really good!"

Su Buwei understood the emperor's meaning and nodded: "The maids and maidservants went around according to your Majesty's will. None of the officials who distributed the seeds dared to slack off. The people also knew that if they didn't plant the food, they would miss the season this year, so although they were busy, they didn't mess up. According to the figures reported by the following people, tens of thousands of people received the seeds only a few hundred miles from Fengcheng to Jinyang. If the heavy rain fell, it would take a few days The sprouts will come out of the ground. "

The emperor smiled: "Li Yuanshan forced the people to rebel with him with a knife, and I used seeds to pull the people's hearts back. In fact, the people have brighter eyes than anyone else, but they are water, and the waves are always blown in one direction by the wind. Li Yuanshan's wind is strong, and the waves hit me. My wind is strong, and the waves naturally turn back to the rebels."

The analogy of the emperor was a little new. Su Buwei hung his head and thought about it. It was really the case.

"The northwest looks like a mess. It looks rotten to the root, but it's not..."

The emperor smiled and said, "the people are the most benevolent and kind. After a disaster, we will find out who is better to them. Therefore, I never blame them for having to follow Li Yuanshan against their will. After all, no matter how big it is, it's not life."

"Your Majesty..."

Su Buwei shouted quickly and interrupted the emperor's words.

This is not what an emperor should say to his servants.

The emperor looked back at him and smiled: "there's no one else. I'm not allowed to tell the truth? All the time, the royal family has said that the people can't be unfaithful no matter how big things happen. Loyalty and filial piety are greater than life. It can be said that how many people in the world can achieve the five words loyalty and filial piety are greater than life?"

"There are still some."

Su Buwei said.

"How many?"

The emperor's eyebrow corner was slightly picked, and his tone was a little cool: "if there were more such people, would I sit here now?"

He is like a child. He was in a good mood before, but now he is angry again.

Su Buwei shook his head helplessly. He didn't know how to comfort him.

"I seldom ask you about the affairs in the court. Since I have let the crown prince take care of it, now you and I can be regarded as outsiders. Tell me, who can do these five words in the court now?"

"Maidservant... Maidservant has shallow eyes and can't see it. Besides, your majesty will never be an outsider, but the one in charge of the game."

"You can't see any of them?"

The emperor smiled helplessly and asked.

Su Buwei was about to explain when he suddenly stood up straight. When he was around the emperor, he always leaned forward slightly, but at this moment, his waist was very straight. He took a step forward and just blocked the emperor behind him. When the emperor saw him like this, he looked stunned, and then slowly relaxed.

In the distance, in the dark.

"You have seen it so thoroughly that no wonder you will be angry. As an emperor, there is no one around you who trusts, and none of the ministers is willing to die for you. Do you think you have failed as an emperor?"

The words in the dark were very light, but they really came into the emperor's ears.

When hearing these words, the emperor sat up straight and said, "I guessed right. You still took this step."

The man in the dark seemed to smile: "Your Majesty has been calculating everyone since he was the prince. After he became the emperor, he has calculated more, so you always feel that everything is under your control, but now... The Sui Dynasty has been like this. Why haven't your poor self-confidence escaped?"

The man walked as he spoke and gradually emerged from the darkness.

He is not the kind of tall person who needs people to look up, but everyone who has seen him thinks he is a tall and straight mountain. His walking posture is very flat and stable, and there will be no deviation in the distance he takes every step. Even if he looks ordinary, his temperament will be unforgettable.

He came by himself.

There was a huge package in his hand. It looked like a cow in the package.

"Eh?"

When he stepped out of the darkness, he paused a little, then smiled and exclaimed: "old dog Gong tingsu, Zhang Yiyang of Wudang... Are people worthy of their reputation."

……

……

The emperor pulled the blanket up, and his face was calm. He calmly looked at the man walking slowly with a huge package, even without a trace of hatred and hatred in his eyes. It's like seeing a passer-by who has nothing to do with himself, or even he didn't think he would be so indifferent.

At this moment, the emperor could even think... Maybe he knew too early that this day would come sooner or later, so there was no anger and no surprise.

"Whether I fail or succeed, that's what future generations can comment on. But I'm sure that in the future, whether in history books or folk word of mouth, my reputation will be much better than yours. Your name will be mentioned together with Li Yuanshan. You should know what words to use. I still have this confidence... Do you have it?"

The man who came out of the darkness put the big package on the ground, stood more than ten meters away from the emperor, smiled and said, "Your Majesty is always so confident, which is really admirable. But have you ever thought about when it is not a hero? Someone will scold me decades later, and hundreds of years later?"

"Do I have to thank you? At this meeting, you haven't called my name Yang Yi directly."

The emperor looked at him and asked.

Luo Yao waved. In the distance, two sacks filled with grain and grass seemed to have consciousness. They flew over by themselves and fell and folded behind Luo Yao. Luo Yao sat down on the sack and just looked at the emperor.

"Your Majesty, please don't blame me for being rude. It's a little tired to drag such a package so far."

The emperor pointed to the package and asked, "bring the coffin?"

Luo Yao shook his head: "I'm relatively poor and I don't have the habit of giving people coffins."

He looked back slightly and said, "immortal Zhang, the last time you and I met was ten years ago. That day, I pretended to visit Wudang Mountain, and immortal Zhang watched the ants move in the forest... At that time, I wanted to kill you for seven times, and finally gave up the idea because you set up a meteorological array with the moving ants. In these ten years, you... How haven't made any progress?"

A sigh came from behind him, and then the man came out of the shadow dozens of meters behind Luo Yao: "in fact, I haven't improved for decades, but you don't know."

Luo Yao couldn't help laughing and said, "it's said that the most pure temperament at this time is a real person, but I seem presumptuous and abrupt. I just don't understand. People like real people should live in seclusion in the mountains and don't ask about the world. Their hearts have been broken as early as decades ago. Why are they getting old, but they are becoming more and more vulgar?"

This immortal Zhang is the old man who caught Python in the dry well that Fang Xie met.

As he walked, he answered seriously: "Because I also like money, beauty and these things. Although I am old, my waist is OK, and I can hold the sky every morning. I have a good appetite, and I won't feel uncomfortable eating more chicken, duck and fish. That day I sat in the house bored, and I will live decades longer than others... But the private money I saved can't buy a small house in Chang'an city , the woman I touched has one hand... Two hands and two feet should be able to count, so I feel very bad. "

Luo Yao didn't take this as a joke and asked seriously, "shall I give you more?"

Zhang Zhenzhen shook his head and said solemnly, "no, it's ok... I don't like being too coquettish."

Luo Yao's eyes changed slightly, and then smiled: "immortal Zhang thought he didn't mess with Sao - Qi now?"

When Zhang Zhenren came to the emperor and stopped, he put away his smile and said to Luo Yao word by word: "you think this is a fair competition, but I am too selfish and pay great attention to the division of regions."

Luo Yao nodded: "so you know a lot."

Immortal Zhang pointed to the sky: "it's a shame to be a Taoist who can't divine."

"Ha ha"

Luo Yao laughed: "I like such an opponent."

Zhang Zhenzhen shook his head: "I don't like it."

……

……

The emperor kept looking at Luo Yao quietly and didn't interrupt when he was talking to Zhen Zhang. When Zhen Zhang stopped beside him, he nodded slightly and motioned, "thank you, immortal."

Immortal Zhang leaned over: "Your Majesty is serious."

The emperor smiled and then looked at Luo Yao: "I thought you would always have fun, and then just play it fair. If you abide by the rules set by yourself, I will play with you and may not lose. But now you look down on me. You even break the rules set by yourself. What's the use even if you are strong?"

"Strong, naturally useful."

Luo Yao said faintly, "it seems that your majesty has already known a lot."

"In fact, you should clean up that mess first."

Said the emperor.

Luo Yao shrugged his shoulders: "that's enough to play. I'm not interested in cleaning up."

The emperor was silent for a while, and then said seriously, "I have to say, you are admirable. It's a great comfort to think that you can be your opponent."

"You are qualified."

Luo Yao said.

"But when you kill me, you think you can end everything? Although I am seriously ill and can't live long, I have children and will inherit everything I have. I know a saying in the Jianghu that it's hard to enter Chang'an, and you can't go out if you enter. I think your understanding of this sentence is deeper than me?"

"He'll die sooner or later, and I'll live longer than him. And... Children can't be trusted except myself."

Luo Yao answered.

"Since wisdom entered Chang'an city to make trouble, many people have said that the rumors about the indestructibility of Chang'an city are false. What else can a Buddha go in and out of Chang'an casually? That's because they can't see such a high level. The so-called Chang'an is difficult to enter and can't go out... It's not for small people like wisdom."

Luo Yao pointed to his nose: "it's rare in this world to let ten thousand old demons do it. Here is one. Only when he can let ten thousand old demons do it, can he really understand the meaning of Chang'an's bad to enter, but he can't go out. Xiao 19 doesn't count. That's his cleaning up the door. But ten thousand old demons are too old... Isn't it?"

He carried the big package forward: "this is not a coffin, but a gift I gave you. I just came to tell you that I can kill you at any time, but I haven't had enough."

The package spread out and hundreds of heads rolled out.

I don't know whether it was a coincidence or something. A head rolled not far from the emperor before it stopped. When Su Buwei saw the head, his eyes changed and murmured, "Li Xiaoche? Did you kill the rebels in Jinyang city?"

"I think so."

Luo Yao slightly raised his jaw: "whoever it is anytime, anywhere."
