Chapter 45: Family History
That Jiang Tong originally wanted to follow Liu Chen to Wanshuzhai, so he brought a lot of delicious chicken legs and other delicious food. Na Cheng thought that when he met a mysterious black-robed man on the road, he knocked down Jiang Tong and kidnapped that Liu Chen.
By the time Jiang Tong woke up, he didn't know how much time had passed. I saw the chicken leg delicacies scattered all over the road, but there was no one to see, at this time Jiang Tong realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly slapped his head, and ran towards Wan Shuzhai.
Besides, after Liu Yi was reprimanded by his father, although he knew that he was wrong on the surface, he was very confused and puzzled in his heart, and he didn't know where he was wrong, so he asked his grandfather the reason.
Liu Gong didn't want to hide anything, so he sat back in his seat, looked at Liu Yi and said: "This Jiangnan is a fertile soil, and Jiangdu is the most prosperous in Jiangnan since ancient times. But do you know the origin of this prosperity?"
"Sun Er knows that six hundred years ago, the demons invaded the land of Middle-earth, and a large number of people of the human race fled south, and our Liu family also came to Jiangnan at that time, and has multiplied in this river to this day. Because of hundreds of years of development, this fertile land has become a prosperous fertile land that everyone praises today. Liu Yi said proudly.
"Yes, but so. It is precisely because of this that the group power of the Jiangnan clan has been created. Historically, our Jiangnan clan has also been the object of pacification and struggle for the previous dynasties, no matter how the imperial clan of those dynasties changes, what remains unchanged is our local clan after all. It was only eighteen years ago that turmoil broke out again in the land of Central, and it was this turmoil that shook the foundation of Datang and made Datang's dream a thing of the past. Liu Gong sighed and said with some regret.
"Then does this have anything to do with us?" asked Liu Yi, still puzzled.
"Listen to your grandfather, don't interject. Liu Yan reprimanded, Liu Yi closed his mouth unwillingly and stopped talking.
"Haha, it really has nothing to do with us, but it just has another layer of relationship. Do you remember that you had an aunt?" asked Liu Gong once.
"Auntie?" Liu Yi tried his best to recall, as if in his impression, there was indeed a very familiar aunt, but it seemed to be a very young age. Liu Yi really didn't remember clearly, so he looked at his father on the side, although Liu Yan wanted to dodge a little, he still sighed and said slowly.
"That's right, you have an aunt, she is my sister, named Liu Yiyi. ”
"Then where is my aunt, why have you never mentioned it?" Liu Yi asked with some excitement as he looked at Liu Gong.
At this time, two tears were already hanging on Liu Gong's vicissitudes of life, and he wiped them a little, and then said: "My daughter, I am trapped by love, and I don't know where I am now, how is my life? The people sent out have been coming out one after another, and for more than ten years, there has been no news at all. ”
"Who forced my aunt away, and what's going on?" Grandpa, you said!" Liu Yi already wanted to know what was going on, and seemed a little anxious.
But at this moment, Liu Gong's eyes were blurred with tears, and he was already unwilling to answer, Liu Yi hurriedly looked at his father, wanting to seek an answer.
Liu Yan was embarrassed for a moment, but still said: "Your aunt fell in love with a person back then, and that person's identity was later learned by your grandfather, so they were not allowed to date. But your aunt loved him deeply, and was pregnant with the man's flesh and blood, so she eloped with the man, and has not been heard from since. ”
"Who is that man, and why can't he let his aunt be with him?"
Liu Yan looked at his tearful father, and said: "That person is Yang Hao, the initiator of the turmoil in Central Continent eighteen years ago, after the failure of the turmoil, he faked the illusion of his death, but in fact fled to Jiangnan ......."
It is said that eighteen years ago, when natural disasters and man-made disasters occurred, Yang Hao felt that the time and place were favorable and the people were ready, so he advocated and pulled forces in the Yandi area, setting off an anti-Tang turmoil. The turmoil intensified, and there was a great tendency to sweep the world, but the Tang Dynasty was not exhausted, and the turmoil was finally suppressed.
Seeing the failure, Yang Hao hurriedly pretended that he was dead and fled to Jiangnan. It was such a coincidence, Yang Hao came to Jiangdu and met Liu Yiyi, and soon, the two fell in love.
However, after a detailed investigation by the imperial court, it was found that Yang Hao did not die, but fled to Jiangnan. Therefore, the imperial court sent people to Jiangnan to investigate the matter, just to check whether the Jiangnan clan was involved in the turmoil, and also to take the opportunity to suppress these clan forces, among which Li Shou was an important member of the investigation. At this time, Liu Gong also secretly found out Yang Hao's true identity, so he prevented Liu Yiyi from interacting with him again.
However, the men and women who are carried away by love still have so much control there, and the two of them together are eloping, wanting to escape to a place where no one knows them and stay together for the rest of their lives.
Although Yang Hao and Liu Yiyi successfully eloped in the end, after all, the Liu family had an affair with Yang Hao, and Li Shou still knew about it, but this Li Shou also had his own little abacus in his heart, so he secretly reached some agreements with Liu Gong.
After that, the Liu family announced to the outside world that the Liu family's Miss Liu Yiyi passed away from illness, and the Liu family's old man Liu Gong heard that the girl passed away, and she became ill from hard work.
At the beginning, Liu Gong and Li Shou reached an agreement, as long as Liu Gong was still alive, one day when he was in charge of the Liu family, he would stand in the same boat with him Li Shou, and Li Shou agreed to help him.
But after the incident passed, Liu Gong didn't want to be with that Li Shou, and he didn't want to break his promise, so he had to say to the outside world that he was sick and no longer asked about the world.
And Li Shou knew that he had been deceived by Liu Gong, and he was also unhappy in his heart, after all, he helped the Liu family, but if he wanted to tear his face again, he didn't want to cause fire for himself, and then he couldn't contact the Liu family many times, so he always held a grudge. It's just that until he died, he didn't catch the handle of the Liu family again, and he didn't tell his son Li Shen about the matter, so it gradually became dusty.
After Liu Yi listened to his father's words, he understood, but at this time, Liu Yi's face was already much paler, as if something was going on in his heart, he closed his eyes tightly, and his expression seemed to be desperate.
Besides, over there in the Willow Wind Wan Study, this Liu Feng and Liu Mei were in the hut where the famous paintings were stacked in the Wan Study, and Jiang Tong rushed in in a hurry, panting and saying, "Oh no!"
When Liu Feng and Liu Mei heard the sound, they hurriedly came out, only to see that it was Jiang Tong, and before they could say a word, Jiang Tong said again: "Liu Chen, something happened to Liu Chen." ”
As soon as Liu Mei heard Jiang Tong say that her younger brother Liu Chen had an accident, she ran directly to Jiang Tong and pulled his clothes and said, "What are you talking about, what's wrong with Ah Chen?" ”
"Don't worry, listen to him. Liu Feng pulled Liu Mei's hand away and said.
Jiang Tong was pulled by Liu Mei's clothes, his neck was strangled, and he could still speak. As soon as Liu Mei let go, he gasped for breath and hurriedly said: "Just now, Liu Chen and I rushed here with food, and we met a strange man in a black robe halfway through, who seemed to be powerful, and knocked me unconscious in one fell swoop." When I woke up, there were only chicken leg dishes scattered all over the place, Liu Chen had long been gone, and I had also looked for it, but I really didn't see it, so I thought I would come to you first to report a message. ”
At this time, the three of them were surprised, and Liu Mei was even more puzzled, in this Liu Mansion, Mo said that it was just a random person, just a fly, and he couldn't escape the eyes of those masters in the house, who dared to sneak into the house in broad daylight to arrest people?
This Liu Mei couldn't think about it, so she hurriedly told her grandfather, so she hurriedly ran out, and Liu Feng and Jiang Tong hurriedly followed when they saw this.
The three generations of the Liu family were all talking about the family past in the hall, and at this time, Liu Yan's wife Lu came with a servant who served tea. Lu Shi saw Liu Gong, and after saying goodbye, he said that he was going to find Xiao'er Liu Chen, but as soon as he arrived at the door, he met Liu Mei and his party who came in a hurry.
When everyone saw why they were in such a hurry, they wanted to ask, but before Liu Mei could speak, she told them about Liu Chen. At this time, when the Lu family heard this, he fell asleep, but fortunately, Liu Yan was by his side and helped in time. Liu Mei and Liu Yi saw that their mother had fainted, and they also hurriedly ran over to help.
Everyone present was eager, only Liu Gong was thoughtful, all of this was such a coincidence, people couldn't help but doubt.
Liu Gong repeatedly asked Jiang Tong about the details of what happened, and Jiang Tong didn't dare to lie, and described in detail what he saw with his own eyes. Liu Gong already had some confidence in his heart, glanced at the people present, and said: "If it is unexpected, because that person is from the Shadow Sect, he can enter and leave the Liu Mansion at will without being discovered, and he is not the strength of the Holy Realm, but also has a high rank of eight or nine ranks in the Martial Realm. This strength should also be one of the five hall masters in that shadow. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was a little surprised, except for Liu Yan. Among the few juniors among them, even if Liu Yi has the greatest ability, he is also a six-rank peak martial arts realm. For Liu Feng Jiangtong, there is no cultivation, let alone say something.
That Liu Yan didn't understand a little in his heart, so he spoke: "My Liu family has no grievances with the Shadow Sect, how can it be difficult for me, is it that someone wants to harm my Liu family, then who will it be?"
At this time, Liu Yi seemed to have an answer in his heart, but he was silent, and he didn't know why, he looked very uncomfortable, although he had been trying his best to suppress it, but he could still see a hint of clues, but everyone was worried about Liu Chen's matter, and they didn't care about him for the time being.
"It seems that my Liu family is in trouble, but the person who made the attack is cunning, and he didn't come to do these despicable things himself, but handed them over to the people of the Shadow Sect. In this way, even if there is something, it is difficult to be involved, it is really despicable!" Liu Gong stood up with a serious expression.
Liu Feng was also the first time to see him like this, after thinking about it, he still stepped forward and said: "Grandpa Liu, I, Liu Feng, am immoral and incompetent, and I can afford to be seen by your old man, and I will be accepted as a scholar and teach calligraphy, calligraphy and painting." Now Ah Chen's whereabouts are unknown, and I don't have any skills, but as long as Grandpa Liu says the last word, I, Liu Feng, will do my best to help. ”
Jiang Tong looked at Liu Feng, who was already kneeling on the ground, swallowed his saliva, and stepped forward and said, "And me, I will also be with Liu Feng." ”
Liu Gong looked at the two teenagers and showed a hint of a smile, this young man Liu Feng, since the first time he saw it, he loved it. I can't say what the reason is, the old man roughly thought about it, maybe it was the fate of the previous life, and he only had such a love in this life.
Liu Mei saw that the two outsiders were like this, and she lost her younger brother, where did she still have face, so she pulled her brother on the side, and also went up and said: "Grandpa, I asked Ah Chen to leave the study, if you want to blame me, blame me, but before you blame me, let me find my brother first, and then I will definitely save my brother and give an explanation to the family." ”
Although Liu Yi on the side was silent, he also faintly responded.
Liu Yan looked at this group of children, and his heart also showed a trace of relief, although his wife was still asleep, and the life and death of his young son were uncertain, but he was also relieved to see that his children were sensible at this time.
