Chapter 240: Since you are reluctant, why let him go?
Yelu Zihan held me in his arms, ran his hands along my hair intentionally or unintentionally, and said casually.
Ming Kangwen stood there humbly, and I could only see half of his face with a sideways glance while nestled in Yelu Zihan's arms.
This half of his face is covered with vicissitudes of life. In front of Yelu Zihan, his bossy attitude will always become humble but doting.
"It's been eighteen years since I returned to the Emperor. The old slave has been serving the Emperor since he was three years old. At that time, the Emperor would only let the old slave go out to pick fruits. In the blink of an eye, the Emperor has commanded the world!"
Ming Kangwen's voice became choked as he recalled it. Eighteen years have changed a child, and also an old man who just wants his children to grow up.
"Uncle Ming is from Jiangnan?"
"Yes, the emperor still remembers."
Ming Kangwen was moved to tears.
But I think things are not that simple.
Just now, Yelu Zihan said that political affairs were in chaos, and even if he wanted to accompany Ming Kangwen to reminisce about the past, he would not choose this time.
"I remember everything Uncle Ming said."
Yelu Zihan put me down on the soft couch and walked slowly to the window, leaving us with a back view.
Slowly, word by word:
"I have purchased a mansion in the south of the Yangtze River, with maids and family members. It is time for Uncle Ming to enjoy a comfortable life.
The beautiful scenery of Jiangnan is the most suitable for a pleasant and comfortable life. What do you think of Uncle Ming?"
"emperor……"
"Uncle Ming has worked hard for so many years. If I still want you to serve me all the time, I'm afraid even my late mother, Izumi Izhi, will scold me for being unfilial."
Ming Kangwen's shoulders trembled. After a while, he knelt down and kowtowed three times.
"Old slave, thank you for your grace."
"If nothing happens, just step back."
Yelu Zihan still didn't look back.
"Your Majesty, the weather has turned colder. Your wounds will become sore in the winter. Remember to go to the imperial doctor earlier to prescribe medicine and drink it to relieve it. Don't stay up late to read memorials. Political affairs cannot be solved in one day.
, take care of yourself and take your time to fulfill your wish. Also..."
Ming Kangwen knelt on the ground and talked a lot.
So much so that I feel that if he were a woman, she would be the one who really loved Yelu Zihan the most. Both Yan Li and I are weak in this role.
Yelu Zihan just looked out the window and did not look back.
It was only when Ming Kangwen felt that he had nothing to say that he stood up with difficulty.
Perhaps because he was old and had knelt for too long, he fell back halfway when he got up. Yeluzihan turned a deaf ear.
I couldn't stand it anymore and gave him a hand.
Just for his loyalty in the "Kunluan Palace".
"Thank you, my dear, I can do it."
Ming Kangwen's eyes were full of shame.
"Your Majesty, this old slave is gone."
"It's late at night, let's start again tomorrow."
"Old slave obeys the order."
The old slave is gone!
This is a farewell word.
The thin figure limped out of the "Kunluan Hall" with years of vicissitudes on its back, and legs that had been kneeling for too long and could not stand up straight.
This journey will last forever.
Ming Kangwen left the palace, and I hugged Yeluzihan from behind.
"Since you can't bear to leave, it's better not to let him go."
I know Yelu Zihan's boring and coquettish character very well. If it weren't for his reluctance, he wouldn't have the patience to listen to Ming Kangwen's ramble for a long time without interrupting.
I didn't look back just because I didn't want anyone to see the expression on his face. I quietly put my head against his back, trying to reassure him.
