general follow me

Liu Ran slept comfortably until dawn. It was the first time in a long time that he slept soundly, with peace of mind and comfort.

Opening his eyes slightly, Shi Yu's handsome face is right in front of him.Long eyelashes, slightly frowning eyebrows, and tight lips, so good-looking, he really is a Confucian general.Liu Ran smiled, put a light kiss on Shi Yu's eyebrows, and stood up cautiously.

Shi Yu is a martial arts practitioner, and he woke up at the slightest movement.Seeing Liu Ran get up, Shi Yu also propped up his body, wondering, "What's wrong? Why don't you sleep a little longer?" He paused again, and asked tentatively, "If you're not used to it, then..."

Liu Ran interrupted Shi Yu's words, and smiled, "General, you can't go to the morning court if you are injured, but Liu Ran still has to go! You should have a good rest these few days, don't touch swords and the like, so as not to open your wounds." open."

Shi Yu laughed sullenly, "Now I really look like the mistress of my Shifu."

Liu Ran's face immediately turned red, but she still pretended to be calm and said, "I'm going back to change my official uniform first. You lie down well. I will tell Ah Que about food and drink."

"Okay." Shi Yu nodded and agreed, and when he remembered something, he reminded, "By the way, if you go to the imperial study to find the emperor today, you should go earlier, otherwise the emperor may not be here."

"Execute Chongqing?" Liu Ran asked with a frown.

"Well." Shi Yu explained, "The executions of the shadow guards are around Mao shi. The emperor is kind-hearted, so there must be some discomfort. If you want to find the emperor, you have to hurry up."

"Okay!" Liu Ran went out the door with a smile, not forgetting to remind, "Remember not to move around, I will ask Ah Que when I come back!"

Shi Yu agreed softly, "Okay." Looking at Liu Ran's figure, he suddenly felt that the heart that had been empty for several years was slowly being filled with warmth and joy.

As expected, when Liu Ran went to the imperial study, Qi Yu was really not there.Thinking that Shiyu's illness was all right, Liu Ran sat leisurely in the imperial study, and Fu Lu kindly gave Liu Ran a pot of tea.

"My lord," Floo called.

"What's the matter? Father-in-law needs Liu Ran's help?" Liu Ran put down the tea in her hand.

Fulu said awkwardly, "It stands to reason that talking about the emperor in private is a taboo for people like our family... But, hey~ When the emperor heard about the shadow guard yesterday, he felt a little bad, even I didn’t eat too much. When I went to court this morning... you saw it too, I was absent-minded. Our emperor... is kind-hearted, not as decisive as the previous emperor... Aren’t you the best with the emperor? , when the emperor comes back, please enlighten me, my lord..."

"Eunuch,"

"Eh~"

"Even if you don't tell me, I will still persuade the emperor..." Liu Ran laughed, "It's too much to delay the ministers of the court because of a traitorous shadow guard."

The father-in-law broke out in a cold sweat and didn't quite understand, "Your Excellency... what do you mean...?"

Liu Ran said with a smile, "I know that the emperor has a kind heart, but the country cannot be defended by virtue of kindness, especially since the emperor has just ascended the throne not long ago. There are some things that the emperor has to learn a word—indifference."

Only then did Fulu understand, and said with a smile, "Master Liu is worthy of being my pillar in the future, no wonder the emperor praises it every day!"

"Don't dare to be, but..." Liu Ran suddenly sighed, "Since you choose to be a minister, you must always consider the overall situation of the emperor."

At this moment, Qi Yu frowned and entered the imperial study room, followed by Chen An, the leader of the shadow guards.

Seeing Liu Ran, she was a little surprised and said, "When did Ai Qing come? Why didn't I know?"

"It didn't take long to return to the emperor, and the minister just arrived." Liu Ran saluted.

"You all step back. I want to discuss matters with Ai Qing alone." Qi Yu walked to the chair behind the desk, sat down and closed his eyes.

"Yes." Everyone went out one after another, and Fu Lu, who was the last to leave, even closed the door specially.

"The emperor looks tired, what's wrong?" Liu Ran asked standing up.

"Changli..." Qi Yu opened his eyes and said, "Why is this happening? I treat the shadow guards really well on weekdays..."

"Your Majesty... because of one person, the courtiers of Daqi were delayed...is it too casual?" Liu Ran looked directly at Qi Yu, "Your Majesty, you also know that you pretend to be mature, sophisticated, and solemn in front of everyone, but today Why did you reveal your feelings so easily?"

Before Qi Yu could answer, Liu Ran went on to say, "This country needs loyal ministers. Your Majesty, you should take into account the responsibilities on your shoulders, instead of losing your basic judgment for a mere betrayer."

"Changli, did you hand over Ba Zhe to King Yuesang without saying a word when you captured Ba Zhe back then, so that you still don't know the whereabouts of your father?" Qi Yu suddenly ask.

Liu Ran was silent for a long time, and answered after about half a stick of incense, "...Yes."

"Changli, I understand what you mean, but..." Qi Yu paused for a moment, then smiled, "It's too fair, the one that hurts in the end is my own heart... Okay! I'm just a little frustrated, now There's nothing else to do, you've been waiting here for so long, go back! I'm afraid the whole court will have to wait!"

Liu Ran was silent for a while, and finally saluted, "I will take my leave."

Liu Ran returned to her own mansion, only to find that Shi Yu was sitting in the courtyard, Liu Yi was playing in the courtyard, and San Yan was also sitting beside her, chatting about something.

"Uncle!" Liu Yi smiled and rushed towards Liu Ran.

Liu Ran opened her arms and hugged Liu Yi, "Oh! Xiao Yi! Why didn't you go to Qin Taifu's residence today?"

"The teacher hasn't come back at this time! I went out to buy vegetables with my god-grandmother!" Liu Yili said confidently.

"Young master..." Sanyan made a salute, and then winked at Liu Ran, signaling him to look at Shi Yu.

"Okay! You're the only one who will be lazy!" Liu Ran put down Liu Yi, and said to San Yan, "Hurry up and take him to Qin Taifu's mansion. It's late, and Qin Taifu will say that I won't let Liu Yi see him !"

"Okay..." Sanyan took Liu Yi's hand and walked out, "Young master, let's go! Wave to everyone."

"Okay!" Liu Yi waved her hand, "Goodbye, uncle!" Turning to Shi Yu again, he said with a smile, "Goodbye, uncle!"

"..." Liu Ran was speechless, angrily and funnyly said, "Sanyan...what did you teach Xiaoyi!"

Sanyan felt that something was wrong, and immediately picked up Liu Yi and ran out, "Master! General! The young master is going to be late soon! I, I, I, I will take the young master away first!" God knows what he said to the young master before going to bed last night The words were spoken out by the young master!

Liu Ran turned around, but Shi Yu was still sitting on the stone stool, playing with the teacup, but the corner of his mouth was slightly raised.

"...Uncle?" Shi Yu read these two words softly.

"..." Liu Ran raised his forehead, why did he feel so ashamed now, and said helplessly, "Children talk nonsense..."

"It's okay..." Shi Yu spoke before Liu Ran finished speaking, "...I like it."

Um?Although he felt ashamed, the word "like" was enough to raise his face to a higher level.Liu Ran laughed.

"How is the emperor?" Shi Yu turned to the next topic.

Liu Ran sat down, thinking about what Qi Yu said at the end, she frowned a little, "It seems that there is no serious problem."

"...That's good." Shi Yu felt relieved.

"But I think, as the emperor, the emperor is too disregarding the overall situation." Liu Ran sighed.

"He has only been on the throne for a few years? Thinking that he can always take care of the overall situation is too harsh. After you get used to it, you won't look like this." Shi Yu put down the tea in his hand, and asked suddenly, " You have a good relationship with your sister?"

Liu Ran was a little surprised, but then thought about it again, the three words must have been said at the same time.

"Sister Su... Indeed, when I was a child, I was forced by my father to go through Medicine Ghost Valley alone to collect medicine, and my father also ordered the people in Medicine Ghost Valley not to help me. Every time I go back with scars after picking medicine, sister Su I always feel distressed for a long time, and even give me medicine. My mother...you know, as a martial arts practitioner, Feihua Pavilion was also a bit chaotic at that time, and basically she was at home for a few days. In those years, Sister Su was like a Take care of me like a mother..." Liu Ran suddenly laughed, "Actually, I have always hated studying medicine. Year after year, I have to go to Medicine Ghost Valley, poisonous insects and beasts, how can a child like it. It seems to be winter. ... I can't remember clearly, sister Su suddenly got a strange disease, and my parents went out again. I was at a loss like the doctor who invited me there. At that time, I thought why I didn't study medicine well, otherwise Then sister Su can be cured."

"..." Shi Yu didn't answer, and patted Liu Ran's hand lightly, "Then why, when you saw Ba Zhe, you didn't have any hatred?"

"Hate! How can I not hate!" Liu Ran laughed at herself, "You don't know how much effort I used when I entered the city to push the hatred back to my heart, because I was carrying the emperor's order. Come here. If I had come here as Liu Ran, maybe Ba Zhe would have been sacrificed to Sister Su's grave by now."

Shi Yu suddenly laughed, Liu Ran was puzzled, "What are you laughing at?"

"I laugh that you are a scholar, but you want to be able to kill ugly people. You look fierce..." Shi Yu suddenly stopped laughing, and sighed, "From now on, I will do things like killing Yes, Xiaoran, there is no blood on the hands of scholars."

Liu Ran turned to look at Shi Yu, and was about to say something when Shi Yu interrupted, "I'm not someone else... I'm... Xiaoyi's uncle..."

"..." Who can tell him why he got involved in these two words again, his face hasn't been polished yet...

"Ba Zhe is now being handed over to King Yuesang. Don't you know the whereabouts of your father?" Shi Yu asked.

"No, anyway, I saved King Yuesang's life, so he will still help. But just now, I discovered something..." When Liu Ran said the second half of the sentence, With a smug smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Oh?" Shi Yu raised an eyebrow.

"It turns out that the general also likes to joke. He talked more today than we did in the past three days, and laughed a lot. I always thought the general was very serious and cold!"

"...Well." Shi Yu smiled, "It varies from person to person..."

Liu Ran didn't hold back for a while, and smiled sweetly, "Thanks to the love, thanks to the love..."
