Sincerity Houfu.

Ever since the important task of connecting the world was taken over by Liu Ji, Marquis of Chengyi, the mansion has become increasingly quiet, and the court has been deliberately ignoring it.

As a result, Xiao Liuzi, a secret agent of the Jinyiwei who was working there and was specially left behind, became a little nervous every day.

"anyone there?"

Xiao Liuzi was holding a cup of tea as he walked in the mansion. Although there were not many servants around, he always felt that there would be someone standing in every corner he passed.

Then when he cautiously leaned over, he found that it was all a false alarm.

But when he looked back again, there seemed to be movement behind him again.

The other servants in the mansion also felt that something was wrong.

It was obvious that he was the Marquis' closest person, and he was in charge of all the affairs of the entire Marquis' Mansion.

But he was very sure that there were changes in the mansion! Changes that were not caused by him!

The flowers and plants seem to have grown extra lush, but they still have to grow.

The bluestone in the mansion is exceptionally clean, and it is naturally clean even without anyone around.

Xiao Liuzi kept convincing himself, and it seemed that he had finally convinced himself, but in fact he had just arrived at the study where Liu Ji was.

There's movement inside!

Xiao Liuzi is very sure!

With his status as a close attendant, he could enter Liu Ji's study directly without knocking. If there were guests, it would be impossible for them to arrive in just the time it takes to serve tea, and there would be no one standing at the door.

Xiao Liuzi stretched out his hand!

"Get out!"

Erhu suddenly appeared, and Xiaoliuzi was so scared that his hands were shaking and he almost made a noise. Fortunately, Erhu was quick to act.

"General."

Xiao Liuzi was also very excited, thinking that he had finally met his own people. Of course, he also knew that the emperor must be inside.

As for why they came so quietly, that was not his business. He only cared about reporting the abnormalities of the past few days to Erhu as soon as possible, and then passing it on to the emperor.

"..."

"and then?"

"And? General, isn't this enough?"

Soon, Xiao Liuzi, like a flood that found a sluice gate, told Erhu all the abnormalities he had encountered in the past few days.

However, he didn't expect that when he looked up, Erhu was looking at him as if he were a fool.

"I feel like there's someone behind me. The flowers and grass are too lush, the ground is too clean, and there's always movement?"

Erhu looked around, mainly at the sky, but didn't see anything unusual, and his expression returned to indifference.

"Yes General!"

Xiao Liuzi looked at Erhu with helplessness and a little fear on his face.

"This is the Imperial City!"

"Be careful!"

"If you get to His Majesty, I won't be able to protect you!"

Looking at the genuine fear on his subordinate's face, Erhu thought of something and finally looked around carefully.

The mansion of Marquis Chengyi was deserted, with only the shabby iron wire hanging on the pillars.

He retracted his indifference, finally gave Xiao Liuzi some comfort, and also gave a look to the subordinates behind him.

"Yes!"

Xiao Liuzi didn't notice the look, but just hearing Erhu's half-warning, half-comforting words was enough to calm him down.

squeak~

But Erhu moved and entered the study.

The moment Xiao Liuzi looked back, he returned to the arms of his brothers.

......

"Mr. Liu, how come your health has become so bad now?"

In the study, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang was wearing only casual clothes and standing in front of Liu Ji's bed.

Liu Ji wanted to get up, but it was obvious that he was unable to do so.

Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang just watched with a smile, and only when he was completely sure that Liu Ji could not get up did he finally take action and motioned for him to lie down.

"I have been weak since childhood, and I am naturally weak as I age. Thank you, Your Majesty."

"The body is the body. Let's see, Mr. Liu, you are still in good spirits! Ordinary people don't put a bed in the study!"

Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang was very conscious and found a chair to sit next to the bed.

"So, we have a difficult problem today, so we came to you, Mr. Liu, for advice!"

"Your Majesty! I really do..."

When Liu Ji heard this, he thought it was exploitation!

I quickly stood up and tried to refuse.

However, no matter how fast he was, he could not be faster than Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, who pinned him down with one move.

"It's not a difficult task. Mr. Liu definitely has a way. I think he must have it in his mind right now!"

Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to be praising him, but Erhu, who came in, and Liu Ji, who was lying on the bed, were too familiar with him.

"I have been away from the court for a long time, but I thank your majesty for your trust."

Therefore, Liu Ji could only respond to ever-changing circumstances by remaining unchanged.

During this time, Erhu whispered something in the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's ear, but no one knew what he said. He only saw that the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's face brightened a little and he felt a little relieved.

"Mr. Liu is still so modest. I have read so many books, but I still haven't reached this level."

But who knew that the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's expression brightened up, but this was not good news for him.

Especially when he saw that Liu Ji still had the same pretended panic expression in the face of his ridicule, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's inner anger came out again.

Who knows what these literati are thinking of us in their minds!

"Hahaha, let's not talk about this anymore, but these past two days, our Mr. Li told us the same thing."

"He said he was old and wanted us to let him go back to his hometown."

"Well, I thought of Mr. Liu. What do you think we should do with Mr. Li?"

Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Liu Ji carefully, but he seemed to have grown old as well, as if he was in a daze, with one hand touching the place where the tea was.

"this!"

"Old minister, I dare not speak nonsense!"

Liu Ji really didn't think that even though he was already lying in bed, the other party still wouldn't let him go!

Fortunately, fortunately.

"What if we just want to hear Mr. Li's opinion?"

Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang really started to act like a scoundrel.

"..."

"Duke Li is a pillar of the country, so it is only natural for him to return home."

Liu Ji was helpless, but when he heard the chirping sounds in winter, he closed his eyes and thought for a while, and finally made a decision.

During this time, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang did not disturb him and just waited.

However, after hearing the word "should", his expression finally couldn't help but change.

"What about you, Mr. Liu?"

"You want to leave us too?"

This time, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang did not move to look for tea, and his face looked frozen.

But this time, it was Liu Ji's turn to return the gift.

"I can't walk any more, I can't walk any more."

Liu Ji sat up slightly, his hands trembling, and pointed at the crutch beside the bed.

Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang turned his eyes and saw that there was a layer of dust on it... He finally had nothing to say and ignored it.

"Your Majesty, I have a request. May I ask Your Majesty to fulfill it..."

As the old saying goes, it is better to strike while the person is ill.

Coupled with his truly professional reaction that couldn't be more professional, Liu Ji's demeanor would make even Erhu feel soft-hearted.

Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang was naturally no exception. Of course, the main reason was that Liu Ji seemed really old.

Compared to Li Shan who was still able to walk, Liu Ji was a real rotten wood.

At a time like this, no one would refuse to stage a story of harmony between the monarch and his subjects.
