Gu Yuanbai was born with insufficiency, and his body was weak from his mother's womb.
This weak after a few years of recuperation, but also gradually have some complexion. It's just that he suffered many secret injuries in the struggle for political rights. Guang Lufeng was afraid that he would be healthy, so in order to make him die sooner, he gave him chronic poison for several years.
Bit by bit, it will eventually become worse and worse, which is intractable.
Before Gu Yuanbai fell asleep, because the regulations of various things were arranged, he was very relieved. This restful sleep lasted until the night. When Gu Yuanbai opened his eyes, he was still a little drowsy, and he didn't know what year it was.
He stood up, but his subordinates felt wrong. Looking down, it turned out that he was propped up on Xue Yuan's body.
Xue Yuan didn't know when he fell asleep, his eyes were closed, his sharp eyebrows were still wrinkling. Gu Yuanbai put his hand away, then got up, but his waist was tight, and when he looked down, Xue Yuan's hand was wrapping around him. And his movement made Xue Yuan wake up from his sleep in an instant.
"Who?!" he asked in a low voice.
After a few breaths, Xue Yuan regained his senses. He looked at Gu Yuanbai, who had already woken up, and the corners of his lips twitched involuntarily, "Is the sage awake?"
The voice was hoarse, with the comfort of sleeping.
The bed was still warm, and Gu Yuanbai was languid. He said, "Go and bring me a cup of warm tea."
Xue Yuan obediently got out of bed, his collar was scattered and his waist robe was loose. As soon as Gu Yuanbai looked up, he saw his tall and powerful back. He couldn't help but look down. Under his strong buttocks were two strong and straight long legs. .
Taking off those robes outside, with a young body that has undergone various battlefield baptisms, it is difficult for people to look away.
Although the mad dog is a little dog, it still has the charm of a strong man.
Gu Yuanbai sat up straight, leaning lazily against the bed frame. Xue Yuan poured a glass of water, because Gu Yuanbai said he wanted warm water, he even tried it with his fingers touching the wall of the glass, and then poured it into his hand and tried it again, but it was not hot. So holding this cup of tea, he walked steadily towards Gu Yuanbai, afraid that the cup of water would not be enough, so he even carried the kettle in his hand.
The sage took a cup of water, touched his lips and took a sip. He was so hot that he shivered. He couldn't swallow a sip of hot water in his mouth. His lips were red and his expression was painful.
Xue Yuan was dumbfounded. He pinched Gu Yuanbai's face and made him spit it out. He was extremely angry: "Is your mouth still hot?"
As a result, Gu Yuanbai swallowed the saliva directly.
Xue Yuan's face was dark and calm, he threw the teapot and the quilt aside, started to poke the sage's lips away, and got closer to see if there was any blistering.
Gu Yuanbai sucked in the cold air and said, "It's hot!"
It was so delicate and tender that Xue Yuan could not feel the temperature in his hands, and it would burn the little emperor's mouth.
When Xue Yuan thought of this, it was more painful than being stabbed by himself. He was in a hurry and his hands were rough, so that Gu Yuanbai's lips hurt so much that he couldn't help kicking him.
Xue Yuan put one hand on his foot and continued to check his lips, "Don't make trouble, let this minister take a look."
Gu Yuanbai has already slowed down, he turned his head and "hiss": "Xuewei, can you be gentle?"
"Okay, I'll take it down, I'll take it lightly," Xue Yuan wondered, "Your Majesty, how can you be so tender?"
Gu Yuanbai: "..."
He kicked up again, and directly kicked Xue Yuan off the dragon bed with the quilt. Xue Yuan fell hard and didn't have time to take care of the rest. He stood up and pressed his knees on the bedside. This time his face darkened, "Let me take a look."
What's going on? Your mouth is fine, can't you make trouble again
Xue Yuan used a lot of force this time, but he was very careful. Gu Yuanbai said that his hands were rough, so he didn't dare to grind it, and could only use the lightest force. This was even more laborious than slashing and killing the enemy. Xue Yuan sweated profusely, and when he finally determined that Gu Yuanbai was all right, he found that his back was already wet with sweat.
Gu Yuanbai had already recovered. He was exhausted, had a headache and was thirsty, "Xue Guard, what I want is warm water."
So Xue Yuan dragged his body in cold sweat and poured warm water for the delicate little emperor. This time, he put it in his mouth to taste the temperature, and after making sure it wasn't hot, he handed the water to Gu Yuanbai.
After Gu Yuanbai drank half a pot of water, the dryness and hoarseness in his mouth became better. The inner hall was dark, and only a few candles were lit around. Gu Yuanbai closed his eyes and let his brain continue to rest, and asked, "What time is it? "
Xue Yuan then left half a pot of water to drink, "I don't know."
Gu Yuanbai was speechless.
Xue Yuan quenched his thirst, let out a long sigh of relief, got up and walked out, "I go to check the time."
After a while, the palace attendants entered the inner hall lightly, and Tian Fusheng came over and whispered, "Sir, it's already dinner time, will you wait for your meal?"
Gu Yuanbai felt the pain in his head, and reluctantly got up, "Then let's eat."
After the saint finished his dinner, it was time to disperse the value. But Xue Yuan stood still, watching the people from the Taiyuan Hospital come to give the sage a pulse.
Tian Fusheng kindly reminded: "Master Xue, it's time for you to dissipate."
Xue Yuan said solemnly, "I know."
But he was reluctant to step.
When Gu Yuanbai heard this, he raised his head and glanced at Xue Yuan, which happened to meet Xue Yuan's gaze.
The warm and comfortable sleep that I slept in during the day was instantly recalled.
Xue Yuan is too suitable for warming the bed.
Gu Yuanbai said in a lazy and hoarse voice: "Until the illness is cured, Xue Guard will stay by my side. Xue Guard is so angry, it can also make me suffer less."
Xue Yuan couldn't help twitching his lips. Hearing the words "suffer less", he couldn't help thinking for a while, how could he let Gu Yuanbai suffer
Since there is no need to go out of the palace today, after the saint finished his meal, the guards in front of the palace changed a group of people, and Xue Yuan went to dinner with his colleagues. The people from the own palace would go to Xue's house and get some clothes and supplies for Xue Yuan, and when Xue Yuan came back after dinner, someone would hand them over to him.
Gu Yuanbai was already lying on the bed, with a bright yellow dragon pattern quilt covering his legs. He was holding a memorial in his hand and was looking at it slowly.
Gu Yuanbai looked carefully and seriously. Kong Yilin and Qin Sheng's group had already delivered money and food to Lizhou. The materials delivered by this team were bait, and they wanted to catch the bait of the biggest fish in the anti-corruption campaign so far.
This big fish, the prefect of Lizhou, did not have much corruption in the local area, but the people under his rule did not suffer from it. The deeper the investigation, the more terrified the people from the Supervision Office became. In the end, they found the bandit dens around Lizhou. The real reason why most of them fell into trouble was because the Lizhou magistrate secretly coerced them.
Officials forced the people to become bandits, and colluded with bandits.
This is too terrifying, and absolutely cannot be made public.
Once the news is spread, it will only cause people's distrust of the court, riots, and great reaction of bandits everywhere.
Gu Yuanbai exhaled a turbid breath, this fish must be made to bite the bait.
No matter what, the prefect of Lizhou must die.
Gu Yuanbai's palm exerted force, and a trace was pinched out of the memorial.
Seeing that he was dealing with government affairs, Xue Yuan stood aside and suddenly started a conversation with a eunuch next to him.
"Can rough hands be cured?"
The eunuch was taken aback and said tremblingly: "Go back to your lord, it would be good to use more hand guards on weekdays."
Xue Yuan had a headache, "Speak clearly."
The eunuch said: "Essential oil, pearl powder, or fish oil, these can make hands and feet smooth."
Xue Yuan was silent for a while, and said in a difficult way: "Go get me some of these things."
Gu Yuanbai had just put down his memorial when he caught a glimpse of a dark figure approaching from the corner of his eye.
He looked sideways, it was Xue Yuan. Gu Yuanbai looked at him for a while, and suddenly asked in a light tone: "Xueweiwei, if one day the people under your command start to covet money that doesn't belong to them, what will you do?"
Xue Yuan said: "If you should kill it, kill it."
Gu Yuanbai smiled: "But corrupt officials are never killed."
"You can't stop killing them, but if you show your attitude, they're scared," Xue Yuan grinned, "It's the same as leading soldiers, there are always a few people who dare to do things that violate military discipline. Why do they dare to do it? It's not because of the general The generals are no longer afraid for them, once the majesty above is not enough, the people below will start to be in chaos."
Gu Yuanbai said, "Continue talking."
Xue Yuan took it slow, "I'm done talking."
Gu Yuanbai: "..."
Xue Yuan said: "Your Highness, the minister is a rude person, and the minister cannot manage the affairs of the state."
Gu Yuanbai thought to himself, how did you come here as the regent
But what Xue Yuan said was right.
The farther the place is from the center, the less majesty the emperor has, so they are not afraid. Perhaps it was because Gu Yuanbai's majesty was not high enough to deter them from daring to move in places, so they acted recklessly.
After this anti-corruption campaign, I believe that Gu Yuanbai's majesty in the hearts of local officials will rise to a new level.
But that's not enough.
The Daheng Dynasty had been weak for more than ten years, nomads dared to invade, local officials dared to embezzle, and the tyrants from all over the country colluded with officials, becoming a local snake bigger than the emperor.
Gu Yuanbai wanted to fight a victory, a victory he had never fought in the past fifteen years. This battle was a battle with the nomads.
It will also be the first nationwide battle of prestige after Gu Yuanbai took power.
You have to take the army out for a walk, and these people will know how small they are.
After relieving his mood, Gu Yuanbai saw that Xue Yuan's complexion was much better, and he whispered to the tool person who warmed the bed: "Xue Shiwei, it's getting late, come to bed."
Xue Yuan's scalp was numb from Gu Yuanbai's warm voice, and he put his hands on his belt and took off his clothes into his underwear in a blink of an eye.
The palace maid took the clothes and placed them neatly, lit the incense to help sleep, and quietly retreated out one by one.
Xue Yuan is really like a big stove. After he got into the bed, Gu Yuanbai sighed, it was so comfortable.
With this ability, Xue Yuan's position in Gu Yuanbai's mind suddenly rose by many points, and Gu Yuanbai became more pleasant to him.
But after a while, Gu Yuanbai smelled an herbal scent, he sniffed it, and the herbal scent came from Xue Yuan.
"What did you use?" he asked directly.
Xue Yuan froze.
The eldest man, it was the first time that he secretly used the gauntlet, and it was discovered. He muttered: "It's useless."
It didn't smell bad, and seeing that he didn't want to say it, Gu Yuanbai didn't bother to ask.
The little emperor is soft and fragrant, and the dragon bed is also soft and fragrant. But Xue Yuan was sweating profusely after a while, and he said, "Is it hot in the saint?"
Gu Yuanbai comfortably opened a travel journal for resting his mind, "I'm not hot, but Xue Weiwei is hot?"
Xue Yuan stared at the book in Gu Yuanbai's hand, with a deep tone, "Sir, look at your minister."
Gu Yuanbai finally looked away from the book, and frowned when he turned his head to the side, "Why does Xue Shiwei sweat so much?"
Xue Yuan's forehead was covered in sweat, his black hair was also wet with sweat, and his entire face was sharp and angular between the mist, "Sir, the quilt is too thick and the bed is hot."
Now that it's the end of May, people like Xue Yuan really can't stand the heat, Gu Yuanbai frowned, "How about that?"
"The sage is still cold, with cold hands and cold feet," Xue Yuan said in a low voice, just like a piece of cold jade. "The sage will cool down the minister, and the minister will warm the hands and feet of the sage?"
Gu Yuanbai pondered for a while, then lowered his head slowly, and said, "Yes."
Xue Yuan, like a wolf who was allowed to eat meat, turned over suddenly, took a cold hand that Gu Yuanbai casually handed over, and narrowed his eyes in satisfaction.
Sheng Shang's hand is not as big as Xue Yuan's, and it is extraordinarily delicate. Xue Yuan hooked the white palm, Gu Yuanbai felt an itch, he subconsciously retreated, but Xue Yuan pulled it harder. past.
"What book is the saint reading?"
Xue Yuan smirked and set his eyes on the book.
Gu Yuanbai said casually, "It's just a travelogue, just to pass the time."
Xue Yuan looked at the book with a bad look, and thought with a smile, can't I pass the time too
He is really like a stove, and within a moment, Gu Yuanbai's hand was covered with a slight sweat, Gu Yuanbai was very surprised, Xue Yuan put down the hand of the saint, "Holy, I'll keep you warm. foot?"
Gu Yuanbai subconsciously said, "Go."
Xue Yuan reached the opposite side in a blink of an eye. He grabbed Gu Yuanbai's ankle in the quilt, then lifted it up, stuffed it into his clothes, and kept it warm on his stomach.
The lower abdomen was hard, and the cold feet seemed to meet a warm fire, so comfortable that Gu Yuanbai's brows stretched, and he couldn't help but say: "Xuewei, it's hard work."
The little emperor's feet are as comfortable as jade, and as comfortable as ice, Xue Yuan thought, what kind of hard work is this.
With a smile on his face, "This is what the minister should do."
The last time he warmed Gu Yuanbai's feet, Xue Yuan was scolded for being presumptuous, but this time covering Gu Yuanbai's feet was justifiable.
Xue Yuan couldn't help but feel a little satisfied. After waiting for a while to warm Gu Yuanbai's feet, Xue Yuan loosened his hand and said actively, "Sir, how about I hold you to read a book?"
Gu Yuanbai declined: "I'm not used to it."
Gu Yuanbai said that he was not used to it, but after falling asleep, he lay down in Xue Yuan's arms along the heat.
Xue Yuan hugged Gu Yuanbai and let out a long sigh. Before he hugged Gu Yuanbai, he didn't feel that he was missing anything, but until he hugged Gu Yuanbai, he realized that his arms were very empty.
He closed his eyes, with a thumping heart of a loyal king, he sighed and fell asleep.
When he woke up the next morning, Gu Yuanbai was still gloomy.
But after a good day's rest, he at least had the strength to get out of the bed. Today's early morning was delayed, and everyone who reported something in the court came to the side hall of Xuanzheng Hall.
It is impossible for the imperial court to devote all its attention to the anti-corruption process. The only people in charge of the anti-corruption process are the people from the Censor Office, the Supervisory Office, and Donglingwei, as well as the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Officials who are also in charge of the prefecture of Lizhou, and the rest. People are also busy with their own government affairs.
People from the six departments and the two governments gathered in the side hall of Xuanzheng Hall and were discussing three things. The first is to build roads, the second is to send troops to border crossings, and the third is to trade.
Gu Yuanbai said that he had to relax for a while, and his expression was a little dazed. In the end, the courtiers couldn't stand it any longer, so they said that after they negotiated a charter together, they would hand it over to the Sage for approval.
Gu Yuanbai nodded slowly and told them to retreat.
When the courtier left, Gu Yuanbai closed his eyes and felt powerless.
He thought to himself that he finally knew why ancient emperors wanted immortality.
Not necessarily because of greed for power and desire to be young, it may also be because an emperor has the will to do things but is unable to finish them.
If he wants to live a little longer and a little longer, he can do a little more, and he can accomplish a little more of his ambition.
It turned out that after becoming emperor, he really wanted to live another five hundred years. Gu Yuanbai was joking with himself, but who could live for five hundred years
There are so many ambitious and wise men in the world that they cannot live for five hundred years.
very weak.
Also very sad.
But there is no way out.
After a while, Gu Yuanbai opened his eyes. He recruited Tian Fusheng and said, "Let the people in Jinghu Lake speed up."
In the whole world, Gu Yuanbai can leave other things to future generations to do, but this is not the only thing.
Except for Gu Yuanbai, whoever touches the rebellion may overturn the car.
So Gu Yuanbai had to speed up, he always felt that this illness was like God reminded him that his life was not long.
This tragic thought continued until the afternoon when I took a medicated bath.
After taking the medicinal bath to dispel the cold, the imperial doctor first took Gu Yuanbai's pulse, but after taking the pulse, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Sage's condition has a tendency to improve again."
Gu Yuanbai was stunned for a moment, he frowned, feeling that the imperial doctor had taken the wrong pulse, "My brain is still hurting."
The imperial doctor said with a smile: "After two days of soaking in the medicinal bath, you should be fine. The sage put a heater on last night? I saw that the sage should have a good rest yesterday. "
Gu Yuan Bairou thought about it, and nodded slightly: "Since that's the case, I know."
It should be Xue Yuan who warmed his bed all night and kept him warm all night, and it was better today.
Knowing that he was about to recover from his illness, Gu Yuanbai asked the imperial doctor carefully whether the illness had hurt his body or bones this time. Although the imperial doctor answered very cautiously, it obviously relieved Gu Yuanbai's heart.
Gu Yuanbai comforted himself and said, you can live for at least two or three years. The current regent and future officials have no signs of coming forward. Even if it is a background, it should be a background with a living head.
Thinking of this, I felt completely at peace.
The sage's thoughts were hidden too deep, and the people around him had not noticed anything, and the sage had persuaded himself.
In front of the palace gate, Xue Yuan stood up straight, but he was a little lost. Colleagues around him asked him to talk about borders and battlefields. Xue Yuan was too lazy to talk about it, and perfunctorily pressed his tongue to his upper jaw, and spit out a few words: "I don't know."
The guards were so mad that they were dumbfounded.
There is a smell of medicine coming from the door and the window, and the smell of medicine is very pleasant after you get used to it. Xue Yuan took a few deep breaths of the medicinal smell, his eyebrows were pressed together, and his shadow was very dark.
Where is the doctor.
The nerves were tense, and thinking about the little emperor's serious illness made him so irritable that he was about to explode.
Someone came out of the palace and asked Xue Yuan to enter. Xue Yuan pursed his lips, raised his official robe, and strode into the hall.
The palace attendant led Xue Yuan behind the screen. After Gu Yuanbai knew that his life was not in serious trouble for the time being, his enthusiasm for work rekindled. His voice contained the water vapor of a medicinal bath, hazy and vague: "Xue Jiuyao, I want to hear from you again about border issues."
Xue Yuan paused, looked at the flowers and birds on the screen, and said slowly, "Okay."
Most of the things at the border are wind, danger, shame, and numbness.
The cruel place has been taken in one stroke, but after taking it in one stroke, Xue Yuan was surprised to find that he had nothing to tell Gu Yuanbai.
The scenery of northern Xinjiang, people who have stayed for a long time naturally do not think that it is scenery. People in northern Xinjiang, the army is not human inside or outside.
Xue Yuan told Gu Yuanbai the cruel, not so cruel side.
What he said was not in a hurry, and Gu Yuanbai listened carefully. After Xue Yuan finished speaking, Gu Yuanbai's water also warmed down.
The people inside were dressing and wiping water while serving the saint. Xue Yuan lowered his head and saw his boots from the sideline under the screen.
Looking at the screen, you can know what the little emperor likes. He must be elegant and meticulous, and he should be a gentleman with poetry and songs. But Xue Yuan is not a gentleman.
The little emperor liked Chu Wei very much.
Chu Wei saw the little emperor only a few times, but every time the little emperor would have a good chat with Chu Wei.
Xue Yuan thought lightly, what a fucking motherfucker.
suffocated.
Gu Yuanbai put on his clothes, the noon sun was the strongest and the brightest, with a medicinal bath to ward off the cold, he didn't know whether the sweat or steam was on his face.
When he came out, he saw the expression on Xue Yuan's face and asked casually, "What is Xue Guard thinking?"
Xue Yuan subconsciously glanced at Gu Yuanbai. The whole person was soaked in water and turned red, Xue Yuan's whole body was crisp: "I'm thinking about this screen."
Gu Yuanbai said casually, "Since Guard Xue likes this screen, then I will give it to Guard Xue."
Xue Yuan was stunned for a moment, Gu Yuanbai had already walked out of the palace with people, and took away the fragrance all the way.
Taking advantage of the energy at this moment, Gu Yuanbai quickly dealt with the government affairs. After dinner, I went to bed again tired and uncomfortable.
There was a person behind him, and Gu Yuanbai was about to fall asleep with the heat when he heard someone whispering in his ear: "Sir, do you like Chu Wei?"
Gu Yuanbai turned sideways and frowned.
Xue Yuan was unrelenting, "Your Majesty, do you like Lord Chu's face, or do you like his hands?"
My heart is dark.
If you like your face, you will cut your face, if you like your hand, you will cut off your hand.
Xue Yuan is a literate person, and he doesn't do the trick of killing people and burying corpses.
