Tang Ji wore a simple outfit, not the usual formal phoenix robe. She came to the pavilion, while Li Hugo put down his teacup and continued fishing.
"Your Majesty is here?" Li Huguo said.
Tang Ji smiled slightly and said, "Since you know it is Your Majesty, why don't you kneel down?"
"It's okay to kneel down in court. After all, there are so many eyes, but in private, there is no sense in me kneeling down to my son." Li Yuguo said expressionlessly, "By the way, let me ask you something, about Baima and Lu Bu..."
"Yeah." Tang Ji admitted without hesitation, not waiting for Li Hugo to finish his question.
Li Yuguo smiled slightly: "Is it my turn next?"
Tang Ji did not answer him directly, but said: "Actually, I have been thinking about something recently. If I had not chosen to leave Yiyang at that time, but stayed with you like Diao Chan, maybe everything would have been different. ?”
"A lot of people will die less." Li Yuguo answered honestly.
At this time, Tang Ji no longer had the airs of a queen mother. She hugged Li Huguo's arm and said to Liu Fu, "Call me daddy."
"Dad." Liu Fu knelt in front of Li Yuguo and respectfully bowed to him.
Li Yuguo looked at Liu Fu's eyes, which were somewhat similar to his own: "Get up and let dad see you..."
Liu Fu came over. Now that he was nine years old, he naturally understood a lot of things. Li Huguo picked up Liu Fu and held him high. Liu Fu also smiled. At this moment, Liu Fu tasted something he had never tasted before. The smell made him feel at ease.
"Follow me to the capital." Tang Ji said while looking at the waves on the lake.
Li Yuguo smiled slightly: "Go back to the capital and be raised by you like a canary?"
"But at least this way you don't have to die. Back then, Emperor Gaozu established the ancestral precept that no one other than the Liu family would be king. And since you are the king of Huainan, if you don't return to the capital, then..."
"Then I have to die." Li Yuguo directly took over her words.
"Lord." A voice appeared from a distance. Li Yuguo looked up and found that the people coming were Pang Tong, Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu, and Cheng Yu.
Cheng Yu saw Tang Ji and his expression changed: "Too..."
Tang Ji raised her hand to signal him to stop talking.
Li Yuguo put down his fishing rod, moved his body and said, "What's wrong with you four?"
The four people looked at each other. At this time, Zhuge Liang took a step forward and said, "General Li, now that the Han Dynasty has been revitalized, we plan to go back to Nanyang Longzhong and continue to study some academic issues with our teacher, Mr. Shui Jing."
"Okay, okay..." Li Yuguo said with a smile, "Go, and after you go, don't come back again. Since the world is now at peace and Kyushu is unified, it's time to stay together for a while. By the way... My brother-in-law and sister are going. Where is it?"
"They went to Zhutai." Pang Tong said.
Zhutai is Hainan in later generations. Li Huguo smiled and said: "This girl is really good at being a good person. It was right for me to entrust my sister to him. But if Kong Ming leaves, what will happen to the emperor?"
"Now the emperor's uncle and Adou have lived in the capital to help his majesty solve some things." Zhuge Liang said, "There are Yunchang and Yide by his side, and there is also Sun Qian, so I can't help you much. It would be better to return to my hometown with honor and continue to open a school and teach students. It just so happens that my humble wife Yueying is pregnant with Liujia and is recuperating at the home of my father-in-law Huang Chengyan."
"Okay, okay, I wish you a happy family with your children and grandchildren." Li Yuguo stood up and patted Kong Ming's shoulder and said. For Kong Ming, Li Yuguo felt very sorry that such a talent could not be used for himself. Although he cooperated several times in the end, but that After all, it's just cooperation.
Cheng Yu bowed to Li Huguo: "My lord, take care of yourself. I will visit you often."
"It's like saying goodbye between life and death." Li Yuguo laughed and scolded, "After you have settled your matters later, remember to come to Jingzhou often and drink with me..."
Everyone laughed and said goodbye.
Li Yuguo watched them leave. At this time, he opened the food box in the pavilion. There were some delicious delicacies inside. He picked up a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Yurou, you are thoughtful, knowing that I like to eat crispy pork belly the most."
Tang Ji smiled reluctantly: "After all, I have been following you for more than three months..."
"Yes, more than three months." Li Yuguo looked at the glass of wine and drank it slowly but reluctantly.
Tang Ji bit her lip, but tears fell. She said, "Are you really not willing to go back to the capital with me?"
"No, I'm tired from all these years of fighting in the east and west... As I said at the beginning, in this life, I don't want to be king or prime minister. I am satisfied with being able to maintain the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, even though Fu'er is my son. , but your ancestor is also related by marriage to the Liu family, so he also has the blood of the great ancestor... This does not violate the ancestral precepts. I hope that after I leave, the big man will become stronger and stronger... "
As he spoke, Li Huguo raised his wine glass high, and some people seemed to appear in front of him.
Lu Bu, Lu Qiling, Wu Zibang, Baima, Xun Yu, Xueyu, Cao Mengde, etc. have enemies, friends, and relatives...
Li Yuguo smiled, but the wine glass in his hand suddenly fell to the ground. He fell down into Tang Ji's arms.
Tang Ji hugged Li Yuguo tightly, tears falling: "Eunuch Lei."
"In..." An old eunuch came out of the darkness.
"Take His Majesty away..."
"yes!"
Seeing her son leave, Tang Ji finally couldn't help crying: "Why... why would you rather die than come back to the capital with me... I really don't want to kill you, I really don't want to..."
She kissed Li Yuguo's forehead. Unfortunately, Li Yuguo's expression had already solidified. Tang Ji gritted her teeth and said: "Ten years, ten years... I regret it all the time. Why do I want to be this queen mother? Why do I want to do this?" To become a master, why should I...leave you...why...why..."
She was so choked that she couldn't speak. She just hugged Li Huguo and kept crying.
It snowed heavily outside the pavilion.
Although the snow is heavy, there is no wind.
The moment Li Yuguo drank the wine, he had already appeared in a familiar but unfamiliar place, the Palace of the King of Hell. The Lord of Hell was fiddling with his abacus: "I'm finally back."
"Both tasks have been completed. Unify the world and kill Wu Zi State." Li Huguo raised his head and said.
Prince Yama put down his calculations, stood up and said, "Now that it's done, why do you have to wait until ten years to come back? But that's all..."
"But that's it? Wait, do you still want me to..." Li Yuguo felt his scalp numb.
Seeing the cunning smile of Lord Yama, Li Yuguo had a bad premonition.
