Chapter 134 Thunder, Rain and Dew Are All Your Grace
Chapter 134 Thunder, rain and dew are all your kindness
Shen Liuzhen, with round eyes and red eyes, walked to Zong Ai's side. His legs felt weak and he grabbed Zong Ai's clothes and knelt down. He asked with a trembling voice:
"Your Excellency, why did your Majesty call me here? He and I are not on the same page!"
Shen Liuzhen pointed at the pool of blood next to the pillar in the distance, and shamelessly began to act pitiful.
When Zong Ai saw him like this, he suddenly felt very happy. He looked at him and laughed and cursed:
"Look at that coward of yours. Who thought you were in the same group? His Majesty called you here to ask you some questions about your direct grandson. Don't be afraid."
After hearing this, Shen Liuzhen stood up tremblingly and said with a grimace:
"You can't blame me for being cowardly. Too many Han people have died recently. Sir Changshi, and I'm with the direct grandson of the emperor..."
Zong Ai led him inside, twitching his face and looking speechless: "Oh, you think too much. You are a child with no official position, it is not your turn to have surgery."
"Oh... I feel relieved after hearing what Mr. Chang Shi said." Shen Liuzhen followed him obediently and stopped talking.
When he got inside, he knelt down and kowtowed obediently, and shouted to Shi Yu Foli sitting in the seat:
"Common people see you, Your Majesty."
The emperor rested his forehead, looking very distressed. Perhaps he was in a very bad mood just now because of the fact that the prince and tutor had just put him in a bad mood, and he didn't respond for a long time.
Shen Liuzhen knelt with his head lowered and waited for a long time. Just when he was about to look up quietly, he heard the emperor say:
"Get up."
"Yes." Shen Liuzhen stood up.
The emperor looked at Shen Liuzhen at the bottom of the steps. He was thirteen years old, wearing a Confucian scholar's long-sleeved robe, and had the restrained and gentle temperament of a scholar. Somehow, he suddenly remembered that when he returned to the court once, he saw his son waiting innocently. What the city gate looks like.
He also looks like a young man, and he is also so docile and reserved.
"He has always been very filial." This sentence suddenly came to Shi Yu Foli's mind, and then a feeling of sorrow and sadness began to well up in his heart.
The emperor, who had suffered multiple injuries on the battlefield and had never been afraid or in pain, felt that he had been stabbed in the head this time and could not get better.
His face suddenly looked aged, and the violent and domineering aura about him became weaker, like an old man in his twilight years.
He waited for a while and then asked: "How is Ulei doing lately? I haven't seen him come to see me for a long time...do you hate me?"
When Shen Liuzhen heard the word "hate", he immediately became alert, stiffened and panicked.
Oh my god, you can't answer this wrong. It's okay to hold a grudge against the emperor, so how can you be the heir apparent in the future?
Shen Liuzhen lowered his head, turned his mind rapidly, and said respectfully:
"Your Majesty, how can the grandson of the emperor hate you? It's because in order to bury Prince Jingmu, the grandson of the emperor stayed up late and didn't sleep much for more than a month. He has been feeling very tired recently and has been prescribed by the imperial doctor. The medicine has been taken. Your Majesty knows that."
The emperor naturally knew, but he still felt guilty and wanted to ask if Ulei hated him.
As for what would happen if he really hated her, he hadn't thought about it yet...but he just wanted to know.
"Does he hate me?" Shi Yu Foli asked again, "The civil and military officials of the entire dynasty felt that I had harmed the prince. Does he also think so?"
Shen Liuzhen knew that the rhetoric just now was obviously useless. He suddenly understood what Shi Yu Foli was thinking.
He knew that he had done something wrong, he knew that he regretted it, and he knew that everyone was accusing him of doing something wrong. Moreover, this mistake was no longer as insignificant to him as it was when he killed the entire Xie family and his clan in-laws.
This time he cared very much, he felt the pain of gouging out his flesh, and he was eager to get forgiveness and understanding from others.
Only in this way will he feel better.
Thinking of this, Shen Liuzhen pursed his lips nervously, and then said seriously:
"Your Majesty... no one will hate you. Thunder, rain and dew are all your kindness. Your Majesty is the emperor. The emperor wants to punish or reward. The subjects can only suffer. They cannot hate you, nor can they hate you..."
The emperor frowned. Zong Ai looked on anxiously and reminded him: "Shen Liuzhen... your words seem to indicate that you have some complaints in your heart..."
Shen Liuzhen said quickly: "Your Majesty, the imperial grandson is the eldest son of His Highness the Crown Prince. Although the father and son are not very close, they still have a father-son affection. Prince Jingmu died in depression. As a son, if he feels right in his heart Your Majesty has no complaints at all. That is false, but it is nothing more than complaint, far from the level of hatred."
Shi Yufoli looked at Shen Liuzhen coldly, but his brows were already relaxed.
Shen Liuzhen tried his best to suppress the pounding heart in his chest, feeling as excited as if he was twirling a tiger's beard.
But it’s already said here, it’s too late to regret...
"Your Majesty, as the common people say, Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven. When it rains, the people may be covered with rain. The people may complain to God because they are cold because of the occasional rain. But it rains. Water is what all people rely on for survival. If it doesn’t rain, there will be a severe drought. If there is a severe drought, there will be no food to eat in the coming year... How can you hate it?"
Zong Ai looked at Shen Liuzhen from the side, with a look of admiration in his eyes... He thought to himself: He is indeed a scholar, and even flattering and comforting people is so eclectic and brilliant...
At this time, Shen Liuzhen observed Shi Yu Foli's face and saw that his expression seemed to be thinking. He had two opinions as to whether he believed it or not.
Shen Liuzhen quickly added a handful of firewood and said:
"Your Majesty... it's just like... just like the Lord Changshi next to you. He got the opportunity to enter the palace and serve you because of his family's sins... If we talk about it according to common sense, shouldn't he also hate you? What? But, you know, Lord Zong Ai’s loyalty to you is evident. This is all because you are His Majesty, the Son of Heaven, and your subjects cannot hate you..."
Zong Ai's face trembled. He almost thought that Shen Liuzhen was secretly tricking him, but when he heard this, he still held him up high and his face relaxed again.
It just... feels a little weird. I can't tell where it is.
At this time, I heard Shen Liuzhen continue to say: "Think about it, Lord Zong Ai is still like this, and his direct grandson is still your biological grandson, how can he hate you?"
Shi Yu Foli looked at Zong Ai next to him, then at Shen Liuzhen, and saw that Shen Liuzhen was looking at him without hesitation, his big innocent eyes full of sincerity.
He believed it...
"Hey... back off." The emperor breathed a sigh of relief and said.
"Common people, please retire." Shen Liuzhen bowed again politely, lowered his head, and retreated steadily.
After he left, Shi Yu Foli felt more comfortable. At least, Ulei would not hate him, which was a gratifying thing... However, he suddenly thought of something again and asked Zong Ai:
"Where is the letter from the prince? Haven't found it yet?"
Zong Ai said with a smile: "...I am looking for you, Your Majesty. The little eunuch below is not doing his job. He has lost it in the warehouse and cannot find it. I am arranging for someone to look through it one by one."
