Note 5: In ancient times, it was considered the age of adulthood to tie one’s hair at the age of fifteen.】

"I understand, it's not Rui'er's fault." Cao Pi touched the top of the child's hair and said with a smile, "Come, daddy will take you to a place."

After hearing the word 'dad', Cao Rui was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily.

I remember that when he was a child, his father would always take him to the roof and look at the night sky. At that time, his father was not the Supreme One; he would often call his father "daddy".

The stars in the sky twinkle and twinkle, like pairs of clear and innocent eyes...

The emperor climbed up to the top of the palace with great difficulty and touched his forehead with his sleeve: "Rui'er has grown up, but my father is getting old soon."

"How could it happen? I wonder how my father can be considered old when he is still young." Cao Rui supported his father and sat on the ridge of the palace.

"Although people are not old, their hearts are tired..." The emperor sighed, and he looked at the immortal spine beast not far away illuminated by the cold moon. The main hall of the East Palace is not very short. From here, you can not only overlook The entire East Palace, and even the Royal Palace in the distance, can be viewed roughly.

"Rui'er knows that being alone is really tiring."

Cao Rui nodded, seeming to understand. Although he didn't know how the Supreme felt, but for a fifteen-year-old boy, it was indeed very annoying to be immersed in intrigues and intrigues all day long.

"Na Rui'er, don't be a loner in the future."

"Silly boy..." Cao Pi looked at the child, his eyes full of pity for a moment. In fact, this child has always been his successor in his mind. However, he didn't want him to become the target of public criticism prematurely, so he did this Letting the position of crown prince remain vacant. Not being established as crown prince can be regarded as a kind of weak freedom.

"Some things cannot be avoided."

Cao Pi raised his eyes and looked at the most dazzling Beichen star in the sky.

"Only when you stand at the highest point can you use the power in your hands to protect those around you and yourself..."

I don't know how long it took, but the child fell asleep on his father's shoulder.

"Daddy..." Cao Rui murmured in his sleep.

The emperor, who was usually as cold as ice, could not control his tears at this moment. The child had not called himself daddy for a long time.

No one can let Rui'er get involved in the disputes in the harem, not even the mother of his own child! Cao Pi secretly made up his mind.

The moon is at its zenith, and the East Palace of Luoyang is surprisingly quiet at the moment. Under the bright cold moon, one can vaguely see the shadows of two people, one big and one small, leaning against each other.

―――

In the east of Luoyang City, the green willow branches and leaves that have been burned by the scorching sun during the day are now floating in the wind under the warmth of the cold moon.

Yangqushui is a section of Luoyang's East Moat. The vendors who were hawking nearby during the day have already returned home, leaving only a few scattered tourists wandering nearby.

Cao Xi hurried outside Qingming Gate and searched for a while on the bank of Yangqushui, but he didn't even see the shadow of the so-called dream interpreter. Could it be that A Xun deceived him? Probably not, maybe, it was. It was too hot during the day, so Mr. Zhou went to a tea shop to enjoy the cool weather.

Cao Xi thought like this and unconsciously walked towards the nearby tea shop.

There were a lot of people gathered in the tea shop, but there was no noise. The boss rolled up his sleeves and poured herbal tea for the tea guests, while talking about something with excitement, so that everyone was silent and listened.

"By the way, Mr. Zhou Xuan Zhou Konghe was a county official in Le'an County more than ten years ago."

"At that time, the Yellow Turbans were rising, and wars were raging everywhere. As for Le'an County, it was later occupied by the Yellow Turbans and fell tragically."

"One day, Yang Pei, the governor of Le'an, had a dream, and Mr. Zhou became famous because he could interpret this dream." The boss said with a dry mouth and took a sip of herbal tea.

"Then what did Grand Shou Yang dream about?" A tea guest couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked.

"Hahahahaha, Governor Yang Peiyang, he dreamed that a man said to himself: 'On August 1st, Duke Cao will arrive. He will give you his staff and drink medicinal wine.'"

"However, the prefect couldn't figure out what the man in the dream wanted to say and how to interpret these sentences. He heard that there was a man named Zhou Xuan named Kong He who was good at interpreting dreams, so he invited Mr. Zhou.

Tell him in a dream. Guess what Zhou Xuan’s explanation was?”

"Mr. Zhou explained: The husband's staff can lift up the weak, and medicine can cure people's diseases. On the first day of the eighth month, thieves will be wiped out!"

"As a result, on August 1 of that year, the army of the late King Cao Gong marched to Le'an and really wiped out the Yellow Turban Army here! Tell me, isn't this Mr. Zhou a man of extraordinary ability?"

"Furthermore, I heard that Mr. Zhou is coming to Beijing this time, but in the inner city of the imperial city and in the palace, I don't know who invited him."

After leaving the tea shop, before the curfew, Cao Xi continued to walk along the Yangqu River. Not far away, after passing the East Market, was the Jianchun Gate not far from the East Palace. Cao Xi thought to himself, how about...

Let’s stop by to see brother Yuan Zhong...

―――

You waited outside the house for a long time before you saw an old servant slowly opening the door.

"Sorry, my master never receives wandering sorcerers." When the old servant saw that he was dressed as a Taoist, he planned to close the door and leave.

"Is Lian Xia no exception?" The man didn't show any sullenness at all, but asked with a smile.

"Your Excellency, who is..." the old servant asked cautiously with hesitation on his face.
