Chapter 3481 Extra: Gu Zhong 7

The emperor's body could not hold out for long, and before all his children had arrived, he became critically ill.

He himself also knew that he had reached his limit, so he specially called Gu Zhong in for questioning, "You and I have been together for thirty years, and you are the longest person besides the Queen who has been by my side."

Gu Zhong also had tears in his eyes, "Your Majesty, let me go with you, and let me serve you when you get underground."

The emperor shook his head and said, "We in the Jin Dynasty do not do things like sacrifice and burial, so don't do anything."

"I am willing," Gu Zhong cried bitterly as he lay beside the bed. "I can't worry about Your Majesty."

General Ashina, who was standing below like many ministers, was also grieved. He walked forward quickly, knelt on one knee beside Gu Zhong, took the emperor's hand and said: "Your Majesty, I am also willing to follow your Majesty, and go underground.

I will also lead the troops to fight for Your Majesty."

The emperor was full of words, but was unable to speak for a long time due to their sad mood. He paused and decided to comfort them first, especially Ashina, "The Jin Dynasty still needs you. In the future, you will protect the territory for the prince.

, how can you follow me?"

Then he said to Gu Zhong: "You don't have to be so childish. If you really want to miss me, just offer sacrifices to me anywhere."

The emperor paused and then said: "After I leave, if you still want to stay in the palace, then you can stay in the palace and be raised in honor. If you don't want to stay, just go out and live for a while. I will ask the queen to let you out...

"

This is already a great grace for a chamberlain. With the emperor's words, Gu Zhong can spend the rest of his life in peace.

Gu Zhong lowered his head, tears falling drop by drop, and his nose was so stuffed that he could not speak. At this moment, he really wanted to follow the emperor.

After Gu Zhong was arranged, the emperor's eyes fell on the children behind him, and he waved to Mingda and Changyu.

The two men stepped forward immediately.

The emperor put his hand on Mingda's hand and said to her: "You are a smart child. You have been considerate of others since you were a child. I have nothing to tell you..."

The emperor sighed and said that he had nothing to say, but he still couldn't help but said: "You should take good care of yourself and take care of yourself. The prince-in-law is also good to you. I know you are blessed. In the future, you will be bored in the capital."

Let your consort take you out for a walk, but don’t go too far. Your mother is in the palace, so you should come and see her more often..."

The emperor choked up when he said this, "You must take good care of your mother."

Mingda nodded with red eyes, "Okay, Aye, don't worry, I will often go to the palace to see my mother."

The queen, who was sitting by the bed, turned her head and wiped her tears.

The emperor then looked at Chang Yu and said, "Chang Yu, you should listen more to your consort, live more frugally, and read more books..."

Although Chang Yu didn't like reading, he still nodded with red eyes.

He has many children, but not many whom he can give instructions to one by one, not to mention there are several of them who have not made it to the capital.

But those who were close came back.

Prince Gong was also kneeling below, crying sadly.

His father's departure was the biggest blow to him, on all levels.

Of course the emperor also knew this. There was a big difference between his father being the emperor and his brother being the emperor, not to mention that the third child had fought like that with the prince back then.

In recent years, the two brothers have been brothers and sisters on the surface, but they know the son better than his father. The emperor knows that the prince does not like the third child from the bottom of his heart, and even holds grudges about what happened in those years.

So he waved to King Gong and the Crown Prince with worry, put the two brothers' hands together, and told King Gong: "After Aye leaves, you must listen to your elder brother and manage your territory well. Don't be arrogant or extravagant...

…”

He paused and then said: "Read more. I think Xiang'er is very much like you. He is a good scholar. You can teach him more and let him read more and revise more books like you. If he can succeed in the literary world

If I become famous, it will also give me the glory of the Li family and my ancestors."

The Li family tried their best to squeeze into the ranks of the Longxi aristocratic families. Those aristocratic families made fun of them in private, thinking that they were not a real aristocratic family.

The emperor seemed to have found a bright road for Prince Gong. He held the hands of the two brothers tightly and said: "You must study more...cough cough cough..."

Zhou Man and Xiao Yuan hurriedly stepped forward, felt his pulse and gave him two injections to calm him down.

The emperor then told the prince, "Take good care of your brothers and sisters. As an emperor, you must endure what ordinary people cannot tolerate and be lenient to what ordinary people cannot tolerate."

The ministers standing below, the kneeling princes and princesses, and the prince himself all thought that the emperor meant Prince Gong.

No matter what the prince thought in his heart, he nodded in front of the emperor anyway.

The emperor was very satisfied. Then he looked at the ministers and began to assign homework. He encouraged everyone to assist the prince and manage the Jin Dynasty well. He especially named Zhao Guogong and Mr. Old Tang and several important ministers. After they all agreed, he then

He looked at Zhou Man and the others who were quite satisfied with him.

Zhou Man, Bai Shan, Yang Heshu and Tang He are all his assistant ministers who have worked hard to train the prince. Zhao Guogong and others are already old. This world is the world of young people after all, so he has clicked on everything he can.

To show that he values ​​them, so that they can assist the prince more fully in the future.

After explaining this, the emperor started to pant a little, and finally let go of his two sons' hands, waved to them and said, "You all should step aside. The prince will stay. I have something to say to you."

The queen thought for a moment and then retreated. Only Gu Zhong stayed with his head lowered as usual.

The two laymen who were busy writing in the corner paused for a moment. Seeing that the emperor did not expel them, they squatted down in the corner in a low-key manner, wanting to hear a series of secrets and record a period of history. As a result, their pens were stained with ink.

Gu Zhong came over in small steps and asked them in a low voice to get out.

Qi Julang:......

This can be regarded as an unwritten rule, but they did not leave the main hall completely. Instead, they sat down at the door outside the dormitory and listened carefully. However, the voices of the father and son were a bit low, so they did not hear it accurately.

Then we can only write about the secret of the emperor’s face-to-face interview with the prince.

Gu Zhong quietly returned to the imperial court and heard the emperor say: "...Although Yang Heshu comes from a noble family, he will not be influenced by the noble family and can be used."

"Bai Shan is not in harmony with his family. He did not grow up in a noble family. Both he and Zhou Man have a good impression of children from poor families, and they are broad-minded and talented. You must make use of them all," the emperor warned: "More

Listen to the opinions of the courtiers. Although some of the words may not sound good to you, as long as it is beneficial to the country and the people, you can endure it. If you are really bored, go ride a horse in the West Neiyuan to dissipate your anger.

"

He said: "Being a king means enduring things that ordinary people cannot endure."

Only then did the prince understand that the emperor's words just now were not just for the third child.

He lowered his eyes and agreed, promising that he would be a good king.
