As soon as King Ying was given the name of the state of regent, although he did not immediately announce the death of Li Longji, he immediately began without delay in his reward on merits.

Guo Ziyi was granted the title of Duke of Dai, Situ, Cheng Qianli was granted the title of Duke of Guo, Sikong, and Jiao was granted the title of Duke of Kaifu Yitong Sansi. Pugu Huaien was appointed as the Great Protector of Anbei, the Jiedushi of Anbei Town, and the governors of Anbei Yatang City, Puguya Temple City, and Luoya Temple City, Huihe Yatang City, controlling the Xiagas, Guliyu, Gelulu and other governors. Zhang Xing was appointed as the governor of Hedong; Hou Xiyi was appointed as the governor of Pinglu, and Li Mingjun was appointed as the deputy envoy of Pinglu and the governor of Andong; all of them were promoted. Li Guangbi was transferred to Fanyang, and served as the deputy envoy of Fanyang and the envoy of Beiping Army. Li Jian, the governor of Beiting, retired, and Duan Guangzhen, the deputy envoy of Beiting Army, took over as the governor of Beiting.

However, the most eye-catching thing is not something else, but Du Shiyi's resignation, appointed as the governor of Fan Yang, and promoted to the Taiwei, and was still the third rank of the subordinates of the Secretariat to appease Hebei. At the same time, the four prefectures of Zihai Qing Denglai were transferred to Hebei Road, and the 28 prefectures of Hebei Road were exempted from renting and tying taxes for three years. Du Shiyi presided over the clearance of the land and approved population, and recruited hidden residents to farm. At the same time, he took office in Hebei with him, and there was still a list of shocking officials. Only those who were really careful could find that many of them were officials who temporarily set up an office after Du Shiyi pacified Hebei. As for the placement of surrendered generals, he mentioned it as appropriate and used it as appropriate, and there was nothing else.

At the same time, what many people expected was that Du Guangyuan, who was originally very popular in the Western Regions and gained a foothold with his own abilities, not just his father's reputation, was actually transferred to the list. Du Shiyi seemed to have no concerns about external discussions and directly promoted his eldest son to the military envoy of Fanyang and transferred to Hebei. At the same time, his youngest son Du Youlin still stayed in Chang'an and was the flying dragon cavalry. When he learned that Du Shiyi was not given the title of king, and he was also firm in his opinion, those humble and noble evaluations poured out to Du Shiyi as if he didn't want money.

It is inappropriate to leave the powerful minister and prime minister who are below one person in the court, but he wants to go to Hebei, which is full of holes. It is said that Du Shiyi even left without waiting for the new emperor to ascend the throne, and the troops he brought back to the capital before also returned to his town.

Before leaving, Du's house in Xuanyangfang was still closed to thank the guests and did not receive those who came to ask for their meeting. In addition to his in-laws, the Cui family in Pingkangfang, was the most prestigious royal family of King Li Zhi of Wu. To many people's surprise, the last visit to Gao Lishi's family, who had been neglected in the family. In the past, princes and nobles had frequent exchanges, and foreign officials came to Beijing to visit the rich mansions first. Now the walls are as fresh as new, and the bright tiles are bright, but they reveal a bleak and decay.

Mai Xiong, who was greeted by himself, was a little nervous. After the salute, he whispered: "My husband has been sick for a long time and cannot come to greet him. Please forgive me for his crimes.

"I have been with Mr. Gao for many years, so don't say these words."

Du Shiyi thought that Gao Lishi's disease was naturally a heart disease. No matter who had entered the palace since he was young and served the emperor loyally for so many years, he was plotted against it like that. Even if he finally left safely, the knife in his heart was no less than the real physical trauma. However, when he actually saw Gao Lishi, he found that the other party was already dying in just over ten days. He was still shocked, turned around and stared at Mai Xiong and asked, "Why don't people tell me such a serious illness?"

Under Du Shiyi's sharp gaze, Mai Xiong could only bow his head and say nothing. At this time, Gao Lishi said in an extremely low voice: "I didn't let him say it, and he didn't ask for a doctor."

When Du Shiyi heard that he had never even invited a doctor, he felt a sudden sensation. Sitting down on the edge of the bed, he saw Gao Lishi's hand so thin that his blue veins bulged. He was silent for a long time, and then he said softly: "Why is Mr. Gao? You have done your best. Do you really have to devote your efforts to the death?"

Gao Lishi looked at Mai Xiong and saw that he had quietly retreated, he smiled leisurely, as if he was not a weak patient. He looked at Du Shiyi, who had a fair hair on his hair and said leisurely: "I have suffered hardships and humiliated in my life. After hardships, I have also enjoyed the glory and wealth that others cannot reach. He is already satisfied. He is the supreme emperor, and I am just a slave of the emperor. How can I expect him to really regard me as a family member? But for decades of love, since he has already taken a step earlier, I am struggling to live a few more years, but what's the point?"

"Old Gao..."

Gao Lishi's eyes suddenly turned sharply, staring at Du Shiyi for a long time, then said word by word: "But I never thought that Du Siwen valued you, and he once valued you so many wise ministers and ministers in the court, but you have a bigger heart than everyone can imagine, and a higher heart. Du Shiyi, do you really understand, what do you want?"

"Old Gao asked this very well because I have always understood what I want, so that I will be today, and will not end up like the king of Xin'an, Li Wei, Zhang Shouqi, and Wang Zhongsi. I end up with a cunning rabbit and a lackey. Because I have always understood what kind of character he has, I have been quietly leaving behind and preparing. The strong and upright ministers end up being just like Song Jing and Zhang Jiuling, and the virtuous prime ministers are just like Yao Chongzhang. As for the rest of the people like Liu Youque Wang Ju, let alone. How can my life, death, honor and disgrace, my wife and children are young, be in the hands of others?"

The first time Gao Lishi got such a clear answer from Du Shiyi, he couldn't help but struggle to support himself and sit up. However, he fell ill for many days without water and rice, and his whole body was already at the verge of exhaustion. It was Du Shiyi who helped him, and he finally leaned against the other party's arm and raised his waist slightly. He stared at the eyes that were not shaken at all. He couldn't help but sigh deeply.

"I misread you, not just me, most people in the world are afraid that they misread you."

Du Shiyi smiled slightly and then placed Gao Lishi down. Seeing that the old and old man who was drooping his eyes slightly closed, a few tears rolled out of the corners of his eyes. He did not explain anything, but just tucked some of the corners of his quilt, and then said word by word: "I will take good care of my nephew Gao and my family."

"I have helped you many times, but you have also given countless gold and silver land as rewards." Gao Lishi replied coldly, and then said weakly, "You go. When you meet again today, you will be in the nine springs. I will be there to see you carefully."

Du Shiyi said goodbye and left, leaving the bedroom. He couldn't tell whether he was heavy or relaxed. However, when he was under Azle's entourage, he was about to reach the door of Gao's house, he suddenly heard a shout behind him. When he looked back, he saw Mai Xiong chasing him with sweat on his head. When he arrived in front of him, he knelt down and said in a trembling voice: "Master Du, please persuade the family. I dare not say that before, but in fact he has been on a hunger strike for seven days and is now vomiting blood again."

Du Shiyi was stunned immediately, then turned around and walked in. When he entered Gao Lishi's bedroom again, he saw the shocking pool of blood in front of the bed. Thinking of Gao Lishi's pale face just now, he turned his head and asked Mai Xiong, "How many times is this?"

"It's the third time, it's getting worse every time." Mai Xiong's voice was a little crying, but seeing the master's muddy eyes, he added another sentence, "Since the last visit from the Three Kings, Du Dashen came out of Xingqing Palace, the family man started to go on a hunger strike and vomit blood, and his spirits were getting worse and worse."

Du Shiyi only looked at the blood stains and knew that Gao Lishi's vomiting blood was many times more serious than the so-called vomiting blood. But compared with physical illness, Gao Lishi's heart disease was as serious as well. And when a person had completely had ambition to die, how useful could the power of a mere medicine stone be? He walked up silently again, but found that Gao Lishi seemed to have not noticed his return at all. His eyes were staring at the illusory air above, muttering to himself: "Your Majesty... under the Nine Netherworld Yellow Spring... you will not be alone..."

Seeing that Gao Lishi was completely lost, he fell down so depressedly. Du Shiyi quickly held his eyes and hands, but found that although the person was leaning softly on him, his eyes had closed forever. He hesitated to stretch out his hand, tempted Gao Lishi's breath and pulse, and finally took a light breath. He lowered his head and saw that Mai Xiong had already kneeled down with his knees. He said in a low voice: "Old Gao has gone. Has he prepared the letter long ago?"

Mai Xiong held his face in both hands and responded for a long time. Then he heard Du Shiyi say, "Leave it to me, I'll give it to him. I think Mr. Gao's last wish is to bury Tailing in the future. I will fulfill this wish for him."

As a confidant, Mai Xiong once saw that Du Shiyi could understand his master's last wish without even looking at it. He immediately hit the ground with his head, burst into tears, and blood and tears flowed. Du Shiyi helped Gao Lishi, who was already angry, lay down again, but took off the hair-wrapped bone hairpin on his head and put it into his arms. Then he stood up and bowed deeply to the body that had no breath.

When Li Longji was old, he was the only one who was a ruthless minister like Du Shiyi, and no loyal minister followed him, but at least Gao Lishi was willing to follow him.

Gao Lishi, who was no longer famous, died. For the nobles and the people of Chang'an City, it was a small matter that was not worthy of much attention. However, Du Shiyi was present and presented the confession on his behalf, which attracted a lot of attention. So, Du Shiyi was wandering in Gao's house to prepare for the funeral and personally burning incense and offering sacrifices to him naturally revealed. For example, Qi Chao and others who were close to Gao Lishi, they had to come to worship and send him to the house. Against this background, the prince of Ying, Li Zi, did not even need to remind others. After seeing the confession, he immediately generously gave Gao Lishi what he wanted most.

Posted to the title of Taiwei Gao Lishi and buried with Tailing

For a moment, there was a lot of traffic in front of Gao's house, and the rivers were flowing endlessly. Before Du Shiyi left, he handed a tribute written by himself to Gao's house, and I don't know how many people were envious, especially a few of the words that moved countless people.

"The prince is neutral but not leaning, he is not arrogant when he gets the king, obeys but not flatters, and advises but not offends. Therefore, there is no gossip in the near future and no arbitrary discussions in the distance, which is truly loyal minister."
