Daily life of captives

Early in the morning, when Changsun Boyi woke up, he felt uncomfortable all over his body. He sat on the footrest and slept all night, and now he was really hurt everywhere.However, looking up at Li Shao's peaceful sleeping face, Changsun Boyi felt that he didn't feel so uncomfortable.

Putting his hand on Li Shao's forehead, feeling that Li Shao's heat had receded, Changsun Boyi felt relieved, got up and walked out of the East Wing.

"General."

Outside the East Wing, Xi Hu and Yu Shi both came at dawn and waited until now, when they saw the elder Sun Boyi coming out, they saluted together.

"General, are you still going to the palace today?" Yu Shi asked carelessly.

Changsun Boyi hesitated for a moment, turned his head to look at the east wing, and said, "I'll go later."

Most of the things that need to be dealt with urgently have been arranged, and now only the border defense deployment is left, and a date has to be chosen to resume the dynasty.

During this period of time, they had to go to the palace to discuss state affairs early in the morning every day. He issued a military order to Zhang Wei and the others, ordering them all to go. The Chang Dynasty has been restored, but if he can't call all the officials for a big dynasty, he always feels that the court and the imperial city have not yet stabilized.

Liu Ce's enthronement ceremony is tentatively scheduled for the spring of the next year. Before that, no matter what, a grand court must be held to let the central officials recognize Liu Ce's identity, and then invite envoys from neighboring countries to witness the enthronement ceremony.

In addition, they had better get rid of Li Zheng before Liu Ce's enthronement ceremony, this matter has been dragged on for long enough.

Taking a deep breath, Changsun Boyi said again: "Go and ask the kitchen what Yunzhu cooks for Li Shao on weekdays, and ask them to make a portion according to Yunzhu's recipe."

"Yes." Yu Shi ran away in response.

Watching Yu Shi leave, Eldest Sun Boyi said to Xi Hu again: "From today onwards, unless I or Yu Shi come back to bring people in person, no one is allowed to take Li Shao away from General Tiance's mansion. If Li Shao makes another mistake, Go back to Suizhou!"

Xi Hu panicked, and hurriedly knelt down in front of his grandson Boyi: "General, calm down. In the future, my subordinates will protect your son's safety every step of the way, and I will live up to the general's entrustment!"

"Get up." Changsun Boyi said again, "Li Zheng will definitely send someone to contact Li Shao again, please pay attention."

"Yes, General." Knowing that the elder Sun Boyi said this in order to let him follow the clues to find Li Zheng, Xi Hu immediately began to plan countermeasures.

The eldest grandson Boyi nodded, turned around and went back to the east wing, and when he walked around the screen, he saw Li Shao sitting on the bed in a daze.

"Are you awake?" Changsun Boyi walked quickly to the bed and sat down facing Li Shao, "Is there anything uncomfortable?"

Li Shao still looked dumbfounded, and shook his head: "No."

Waking up early in the morning with no one around him, Li Shao thought that the memory of last night was just a dream, but now the gentle and sincere expression of Chang Sun Boyi was in front of him, but Li Shao still didn't feel it.

There is no reason, Boyi has no reason to treat him so well all of a sudden... Could it be that he is still dreaming?

Seeing that Li Shao had been out of his wits, the eldest grandson Boyi raised his hand to straighten Li Shao's hair, and asked nervously, "Li Shao, what's the matter?"

Because he had just stood outside for a while, the eldest Sun Boyi's hand was cold, and he accidentally touched Li Shao's face, which gave Li Shao a jolt, and his eyes that had been dazed all this time finally became clearer.

"It's nothing, I'm a little sleepy." Li Shao raised his hand and pulled Changsun Boyi's hand down, "What are you doing outside? Why are your hands so cold?"

"Nothing," Changsun Boyi took Li Shao's hand instead, "I just explained a few words to Yu Shi and Xi Hu."

"That's right." Staring at the hand he was holding with his grandson Boyi, Li Shao still felt that something was weird.

After hesitating for a moment, Changsun Boyi asked Li Shao, "Where did Deng Yi and Yunzhu go? Do you need me to send someone to pick them up?"

Li Shao's eyes flashed, he shook his head, and said, "I don't know where they went, I already asked Wei Ze and Wei Feng to look for them."

That day, he let Deng Yi and Yunzhu hide in the kitchen of General Tiance's mansion, and then let Wei Ze and Wei Feng secretly pick him up. As for where Wei Ze and Wei Feng put him Well, he really didn't know, depending on the temper of those two boys, maybe they would take Deng Yi and Yun Zhu to leave Beijing to do missions together.

Hearing this, Changsun Boyi asked very worriedly: "Could it be that the two of them were taken away by Li Zheng?"

Li Shao lowered his eyes and shook his head again: "I don't know, I hope not."

Seeing that Li Shao didn't seem in a hurry, Changsun Boyi's eyebrows twitched, and suddenly realized that Li Shao hadn't told him the truth.

If Deng Yi and Yun Zhu's whereabouts were really unknown, Li Shaoding would not be so indifferent, and the reason why he was so calm was probably because he was sure that Deng Yi and Yun Zhu were in safe condition.

Opening his mouth, Changsun Boyi wanted to ask more questions, but when he was about to speak, he suddenly couldn't ask, so he closed his mouth, got up and went to the closet, opened the closet and picked out a set of clothes.

"Get up and wash your face, I asked the kitchen to cook something for you."

"Okay." Li Shao turned his head to look at the back of eldest grandson Boyi, and smiled.

While Li Shao was changing clothes, Eldest Sun Boyi personally applied medicine to Li Shao's wounds. He acted skillfully and calmly. On the contrary, Li Shao cared about the scars on his body, and kept his body stiff and motionless.

Changsun Boyi noticed it, but he couldn't do anything except feel sorry for him. He couldn't remove the scars on Li Shao's body, nor could he say comforting words to make Li Shao more embarrassed. He could only pretend that he didn't notice anything. .

After having breakfast with Li Shao, and watching Li Shao drink the decoction to treat the cold, the eldest grandson Boyi went out, ready to go to the palace.

The eldest grandson Boyi hurried all the way, through the main room and the front yard, but stopped suddenly after crossing the threshold of the gate.

Yu Shilai had no time to stop and almost bumped into Changsun Boyi. Fortunately, he was strong and strong, and as soon as he turned around, he brushed Changsun Boyi's shoulder and went around in front of Changsun Boyi, staggered twice and then stood firm.

"General, what's the matter?" Looking at the two steeds at the door, and then at the eldest Sun Boyi who stopped suddenly, Yu Shi was confused, "Did you forget to take something?"

Changsun Boyi ignored Yu Shi, his brows were frowned, as if he was thinking about some important issue, but after a long while, he finally turned around and ran back to the mansion.

"Go get the carriage ready."

Hearing this, Yu Shi scratched his head.

carriage?Why did the general suddenly want to take a carriage?Do they have a carriage in the house?

Afraid of delaying the eldest Sun Boyi's time, Yu Shi hurriedly asked someone to get a carriage, but Yu Shi didn't care about how to get it.

The eldest grandson Boyi ran straight back to the East Wing, and said to Li Shao after entering the door: "Get ready, I will take you into the palace."

Li Shao was startled, and asked in astonishment: "Enter the palace? You want to take me into the palace? What are you going to do?"

Changsun Boyi said in a deep voice, "Tell them to recognize you, so that there will be no misunderstanding in the future."

Hearing this, Li Shao raised his eyebrows.

Tell them all to recognize him?They mean Tao Wujing and those people?But at this time, Tao Wujing and the others are not the only ones in the Xuanzheng Palace, right?Aren't Yong Ning and the civil servants who have already served in the court also there?Has Boyi ever wondered what the scene would look like after he met those people?

Seeing Li Shao motionless, Changsun Boyi frowned slightly: "Don't you want to go?"

"Do you think it's convenient for me to go?" Li Shao asked back.

"It's not inconvenient," Changsun Boyi said without hesitation, "but if you don't want to, then don't go."

After staring at Changsun Boyi, Li Shao stood up with a faint smile, and said, "Since you have said so, I'd better go and have a look. You have been in Beijing for a while, and I haven't had a good time with your brother." We said hello."

He wanted to see if Boyi had already figured out how to deal with it, or if he didn't expect the consequences at all.

The eldest grandson Boyi's eyes were full of smiles, seeing Li Shao take out a fur cloak from the closet, he went forward to help Li Shao put it on.

Leading Li Shao out of the East Wing, the elder Sun Boyi said to Xi Hu: "Stay in the mansion and see what you can do."

Sometimes fake bait can also catch big fish.

Xi Hu was taken aback for a moment, then clasped his fists in response: "Yes."

When Changsun Boyi and Li Shao stepped out of Tiance Admiral's Mansion, the carriage was ready, Changsun Boyi helped Li Shao get into the carriage, and he followed closely behind.

Before closing the car door, Changsun Boyi specifically told Yu Shidao: "Slow down, there is no rush."

"Understood, General." Yu Shi didn't ask any further questions, and with a simple smile, he helped his elder Sun Boyi close the car door, then turned around and sat on the shaft of the car, and drove the car to the palace.

Sitting in the car, Changsun Boyi patted himself on the shoulder suddenly, and said to Li Shao: "Just take a nap for a while, you have to walk for a while."

Li Shao's eyes flashed, he smiled at his elder Sun Boyi, leaned against him, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

After entering the palace, he will probably see Yong Ning, but he has to ask carefully what happened yesterday, which caused Boyi to change his attitude suddenly.

The carriage drove all the way to Xuanzheng Gate before stopping. After getting off the carriage, he saw this palace gate, and Li Shao was shocked. After thinking about it, he realized that it was not a big deal.

Although the rules in the palace have existed since ancient times and have been used from generation to generation, if they are not rewritten into official documents and stamped with the official seal to announce to the world when the dynasty changes, they will be ignored by others, especially Liu Ce was originally a puppet supported by Boyi and the others. No one would care about Liu Ce's majesty. In ancient times, heroes who had the power to overwhelm the lord were not restricted by the palace rules. Now Boyi is probably in that position.

"Watch out."

Helping Li Shao out of the car, the eldest grandson Boyi took Li Shao's hand and walked into the Xuanzheng Hall with his head held high.

Li Shao didn't say anything, just followed his elder Sun Boyi silently, with an unchanging gentle smile on his face.

Inside the Xuanzheng Hall, Liu Ce sat on the dragon chair with his head propped up and yawned continuously. Yong Ning and Xie Jun were leading two groups of people, one civil and one military, to discuss matters. When they were arguing, the door of Xuanzheng Hall was suddenly pushed open.

There was no sound in the hall for a moment, and everyone turned their heads to look at the door. Most of them had already guessed that the person who opened the door would be Changsun Boyi, but when they saw Li Shao behind Changsun Boyi, everyone was stunned.

Zhang Wei and Chen Peng looked at the resolute eldest Sun Boyi, dumbfounded.

And all the civil servants sitting beside Yongning were overjoyed, what's more, they burst into tears immediately.

Zhang Wei and Chen Peng were taken aback by the sudden chaos, and even Liu Ce, who was dozing off on the dragon chair, woke up.

"General Changsun, why did you bring him here?" Liu Ce was just curious, wondering why Changsun Boyi brought Li Shao to Xuanzheng Hall, and also curious why those civil servants cried when they saw Li Shao.

Grandson Boyi led Li Shao to the center of the hall, lifted the front of his cloak and knelt down on one knee.

"Report to Your Majesty, I have decided to bring this person into the mansion as a guest minister, so I brought this person to His Majesty and colleagues to avoid misunderstandings when we meet in the future."

Liu Ce actually didn't understand all of Changsun Boyi's words, but he probably understood what Changsun Boyi said meant that Li Shao would be one of them in the future.

"Isn't he the prince of the Li clan? Why did you accept him as a guest... a guest?" Liu Ce turned to look at Xie Jun and the others, "What do you think, Military Master Xie?"

Didn't they always aim to kill Li Shi?Why did you change your mind again?

"This..." Xie Jun turned his head to look at Zhang Wei and the others, "It's just one person. If General Changsun is the guarantor, I have no objection."

Zhang Wei smiled and glared at eldest Sun Boyi, and said, "I have no objection."

This kid, the eldest grandson, actually wanted all of them to recognize Li's prince in public. It's really rare that this kid would do such a petty thing.

Chen Peng also didn't want to quarrel with grandson Boyi for an insignificant person, so he accepted it.

Although the other generals didn't know what to do, Jian Jun, Zhang Wei, and Chen Peng all agreed, and Sun Boyi and Xie Jun had discussed it in advance, so they said that Chang Sun Boyi was happy.Tao Wujing, who was the only one who could object, was seriously injured yesterday and is lying at home recuperating right now.

Seeing that all his relatives agreed, Liu Ce no longer had any doubts in his heart, and said with a smile: "Since everyone agrees, let's go ahead."

These things are too complicated, he can't figure it out clearly, but if both General Changsun and Xie Junshi think there is no problem, then there must be no problem, not to mention that Zhang Wei and the others don't object, it can be resolved without quarreling, that's great.

Seeing this, Li Shao felt that out of politeness, he should also kneel down to Liu Ce who was sitting on the dragon chair, but just as Li Shao bent his leg, someone immediately exclaimed.

"Your Highness can't do it!"

Li Shao was so frightened by this exclamation that he stopped his movements, looked curiously along with the others, and saw an acquaintance.

Ding Changzhi, the current Minister of Zhongshu, burst into tears, crying: "Your Highness, you have a noble status, how can you do such a great gift casually!"

His Highness didn't have to kneel down to Sejong when he was the most favored, how could he kneel down to such a rich man now?

Yong Ning frowned, and turned to look at Ding Changzhi, but Ding Changzhi was immersed in the surprise of meeting Li Shao'an and the grief and indignation of seeing Li Shao's downfall, probably he had forgotten where he was, let alone seeing the people around him wink.

Li Shao secretly sighed.

He knew that he could not meet these civil servants. He knew his position in the hearts of these old ministers, so he always avoided contact with them, especially those pedantic civil servants. He is still alive, and they will definitely try their best to defend him, support him, and protect him, especially Liu Ce is just a decoration, and he has no morals and incompetence, which is not convincing. What's more, about [-] to [-]% of the people Yongning hired had hoped for him to take over the world, and even he couldn't predict what they would do in the future.

Li Shao looked at his eldest grandson Boyi, seeing that his eldest grandson Boyi also had the same astonishment on his face as Zhang Wei and the others, and suddenly felt a little disappointed.

It seems that Boyi really did not expect this scene.

Seeing that Yong Ning and others persuaded him for a long time, Ding Changzhi cried unwaveringly, Li Shao had no choice but to say: "Lord Ding."

As soon as he heard Li Shao's cold voice, Ding Changzhi immediately moved, wiped away his tears, knelt down and kowtowed to Li Shao: "The old minister lost his composure, please forgive me, Your Highness."

Li Shao sighed secretly, and said again: "I know that Master Ding is a man of love. You and I have not met for a long time. It is reasonable for Master Ding to have mixed feelings in his heart. But before driving, Master Ding should restrain himself."

Ding Changzhi was stunned for a moment, raised his head to look at Liu Ce who was out of sight, and looked at Li Shao unwillingly: "But Your Highness..."

Li Shao interrupted Ding Changzhi with a firm attitude, and said: "Master Ding, with my current status, I can no longer afford the word "Your Highness", please be careful with your words."

Seeing Li Shao's face turned cold, the person sitting next to Ding Changzhi immediately whispered a few words in Ding Changzhi's ear. As soon as he finished speaking, Ding Changzhi suddenly turned to Liu Ce with a panicked expression.

"I have nothing to say, Your Majesty, please forgive me. I believe that Your Majesty will understand the excitement of seeing the resurrected man, old minister... old minister..." Ding Changzhi began to cry again.

Upon hearing Ding Changzhi's cry, Liu Ce said impatiently: "Don't cry, don't cry, it's so ugly for a big man to cry like this! If he doesn't kneel, he won't kneel. Can't you? Stop crying, it's annoying!"

Hearing this, Ding Changzhi kowtowed again and again, knocking his forehead loudly: "Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty!"

He can kowtow to this little bastard as much as he wants, he just asks not to compromise His Highness's dignity.

Li Shao quickly winked at Yong Ning, asking Yong Ning to pull Ding Changzhi up, and he himself bowed to Liu Ce: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

As the elder Sun Boyi sat aside, even with his head bowed, Li Shao probably knew how many pairs of eyes were staring at him. Those eager eyes must have come from Yong Ning's side, while the inquiry and suspicion came from Jie Jun's side.

Lifting the corners of his mouth and chuckling silently, Li Shao only lowered his head and sat motionless behind Changsun Boyi.

At half past noon, the things that should have been discussed this morning finally came to fruition. When the meeting was over, Xie Jun called to stop the elder Sun Boyi.

"Eldest grandson, take a step to speak."

The eldest grandson Boyi glanced at Li Shao first, and then said to Xie Jun, "Can we talk about it tomorrow?"

"No!" Xie Jun stared.

Li Shao chuckled, and said to his grandson Boyi, "Go, I'll wait for you outside the door."

"Then find Yongning to accompany you for a while, and I'll be right back." After telling Li Shao, the elder Sun Boyi walked away with Xie Jun unhappy.

There was no need for Li Shao to go to Yong Ning, as soon as Yong Ning saw his elder Sun Boyi being pulled away by Xie Jun, he walked to Li Shao's side.

"Why would the eldest grandson want to bring you into the palace?"

"I also want to know what he thinks." Li Shao turned around and walked out of the hall, "What happened yesterday? I only remember that I was imprisoned by Tao Wujing in the sky prison, and then I became delirious due to a high fever I don’t know, I don’t remember anything.”

Yong Ning said with a smile: "Then you missed a good show."

After straightening out the news he received last night, Yong Ning briefly told Li Shao what happened in General Tiance's residence yesterday.

After hearing this, Li Shao felt mixed emotions in his heart. If he is happy, he will definitely be happy and also very moved, but Zhang Sun Boyi's actions are still ill-considered. As far as Chang Sun Boyi's current status is concerned, this means even It can be called the next best thing to do.

Seeing Li Shao's expression was not hesitant, Yong Ning knew what he was thinking, and said comfortingly: "You yourself said that the eldest grandson is still far behind, how can you expect him to be considerate in everything, don't think so much right now. , be happy when you should be happy. In the end, the eldest grandson still pretends to be you."

Li Shao said softly: "How can I not want to? What happened yesterday, if Zhang Wei hadn't tolerated him, and if Xie Jun hadn't helped him, how could it have ended so easily? Tao Wujing is kind on the surface, but that's not a good friend." People? He is so reckless, sooner or later something will happen."

Yong Ning curled his lips, and defended his elder Sun Boyi in a rare way: "He is not that reckless, and he has been in the army for ten years anyway. If he is really a reckless person, how can he still be alive? He can only meet with you. He will be more reckless than usual when it comes to relevant matters. In the past few months, he has handled government affairs in a decent manner, and even I have to look at him with admiration."

Li Shao narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance: "In other words, without me, he would have done well."

Yong Ning was startled, and secretly thought something was wrong: "No, that, that's not what you said...Don't talk about him, don't you just ignore the matter of your eldest grandson? In short, you can rest assured now that General Tiance It’s enough to recuperate in the mansion, even if the eldest grandson does not do well in other things, Xie Jun and I will help him, so there will be no trouble.”

"En." Li Shao nodded with a smile.

There are also many talented people who govern the country by Li Zheng's side, but Li Zheng is still defeated in the end.

Scratching the corner of his mouth, Yong Ning quickly changed the subject: "By the way, what did you ask Wei Ze and Wei Feng to do? Why didn't even Yun Zhu and Deng Yi disappear? When the eldest grandson asked me, I was shocked. "

Li Shao turned his head to look at Yong Ning, and said with a calm smile, "Don't ask, now you just concentrate on assisting the government, and I can handle my affairs by myself."

On the other side, Xie Jun dragged the eldest grandson Boyi into the corner and complained: "What do you want, grandson, ah? You just beat Tao Wujing to the point of being seriously injured and bedridden yesterday, and today you brought Li Shao into the palace. Are you Are you crazy? Not to mention what the soldiers of the three armies would think, most of the people Yong Ning used were former ministers. Don’t you know how loyal those people are to Li Shao? How dare you bring Li Shao here? Those pretentious people People always looked down on Liu Ce. They didn't say anything because of you and Yongning's face. Now that you bring Li Shao out, can they still be peaceful? Are you really crazy? Ask me Want an imperial doctor to cure your brain?"

"I'm fine!" Changsun Boyi glared at Xie Jun, "Li Shao is alive as long as he is alive, how can I lock him up in General Tiance's mansion and make him a dead person forever? Come out to meet people."

"But, but you can't drag him to court! Have you seen the reaction of those civil servants? Are you not afraid that Liu Ce will not succeed in enthroning?"

If the bastard eldest grandson wants to push Li Shao to be the emperor, he will just say, they will change now!

"I will protect Liu Ce's life." After saying this, Changsun Boyi strode towards Li Shao.

Xie Jun stood where he was, staring blankly at the back of eldest Sun Boyi.

He saved Liu Ce's life?Will Liu Ce's throne not be guaranteed?Does the eldest grandson really want to change?So what should they do now?Do you continue to act according to the original plan, or are you going to replace the throne?This bastard, eldest grandson, will make trouble for him!
