Liu Shiren's mansion is in the east of the capital, in the downtown area, there is an alley called "Chu Lane" in front, it is rumored that the Great Zhou Dynasty worships Liu Shiren There are many people, many literati are proud of having one of his calligraphy and paintings, and there are also many people who want to knock on Liu Shiren's door with their own poetry to be promoted, so for a while, Liu Shiren's door queued up to see a lot of people, and Chu Lane was stuffed.

Later, Liu Shiren got tired of this, so he closed the door to thank customers, and asked his subordinates to set up a sign next to Chu Lane.

'Poetry and books should go this way, and please go to the side door for glory and wealth. ’

This sign stood there and played its due role, and since then, there have been fewer people who want to come to Liu Shiren to ask for a way, and Chu Xiang has regained its calm, which is also cited as a good story by the people in the capital.

When Mu Qing walked to the door of Liu Shiren's mansion with the booklet in his arms, he saw that the door was closed and looked a little deserted. This made Mu Qing a little surprised, even if he was as cold as Li Qianyu, he would open the door every day, but this Liu Mansion was too calm.

Walking up the steps, Mu Qing reached out and buckled the copper ring on the vermilion wooden door.

After a while, the door opened a crack, and Mu Qing could only vaguely see that the person who opened the door was an old man with gray hair, only to hear the old man say: "My lord is not in the house today, and he didn't invite anyone to be a guest today, if you want to see the lord, you have to wait for another day." "As he spoke, he was about to close the door.

Mu Qing was willing to respond, hurriedly held the door, and said, "I am this year's Gongsheng, and I came here to visit the teacher." ”

The old man squinted his eyes and looked at Mu Qing, looked him up and down, and the casualness just now dissipated a little, but he still didn't open the door: "This son, if you visit Haiming, please be early, today the old man invited a guest, I'm afraid I can't see you, please go back." ”

Mu Qing is willing to respond, what he wants is to come to talk to Du Luo during Liu Shiren's absence, if Liu Shiren is still there, where can he talk to Du Luo? So Mu Qing hurriedly smiled: "This old man, the student's name is Mu Qing, I have always admired Liu Gong's talent and character, this time I came to visit, and I hope that the old man will help, which is all my heart." ”

Hearing Mu Qing's name and surname, the old man's face finally became solemn. He opened the door and bowed lightly to Mu Qing: "It turned out to be the Duke of Huiyuan, and the old man was rude." ”

Mu Qing hurriedly turned sideways, did not accept his full salute, and bent down slightly to help the old man get up: "The old man is polite, the student is just a junior, and he can't afford to be a big gift from the old man." ”

It is said that the prime minister's door is a third-grade official, and this old man has been on an errand at Liu Shiren's door for so many years, so he naturally has some experience. He had seen arrogant, domineering, flattering, and Rao was a scholar who seemed to be humble and polite, and he didn't have much of a good face for an old man like him, but this Mu Qing was rare. The old man had a little more affection for Mu Qing, and the words that he didn't say just now also leaked out: "The son is very good, and the old man does not hide the son, and when a distinguished guest comes, the old man obstructs the son from entering the door." ”

Mu Qingqi said: "I don't know who it is? ”

The old man pointed to the sky: "Heavenly nobles, poor people like me can't afford to talk about it, it's a blessing." ”

That is, the nobles of Tianhuang, I am afraid that it is the people in the palace, Mu Qing pursed his lips: "But I don't know, when will that nobleman come?" ”

"The prayer post is written after noon, about after the lord goes to court."

Mu Qing calculated, it was a moment of unitary time, and there was still some time, so he showed an embarrassed expression on his face: "Old man, it's not that I deliberately embarrassed you, it's really that I was entrusted by someone," he said, took out the collection from his arms, and said, "This is the poem collected at the poetry meeting held in Prince Zhuang's mansion some time ago, and Prince Zhuang specially instructed me to bring it to Lord Liu as a preface, can you ask the old man to let me in and put down this collection before leaving?" ”

"This ......" let him break into the mansion, and the old man obviously didn't agree, but if he just bombarded him like this, it would inevitably seem unkind.

As they were hesitating, they heard a few slightly heavy footsteps, and when the two raised their eyes, they saw a sedan chair stopped on the side of the road, and a man in a dark blue brocade robe got down from the sedan chair, with a handsome face and a hearty smile.

Mu Qing was stunned for a moment, but heard the old man beside him salute in a panic: "I've seen His Royal Highness King Rui." ”

"Up." King Rui waved his hand and let the old man be exempt, but he strode towards Mu Qing.

Mu Qing subconsciously stepped back, but immediately stopped his steps, he didn't steal or rob, he just came to visit Liu Shiren, where is there any weakness? He stood there with an indifferent expression, and when he saw Li Chengming stopped in front of him, he bent down slightly and saluted: "The student has seen His Royal Highness King Rui, His Royal Highness is a thousand years old. ”

Li Chengming didn't let him get up, but bent down slightly, and stretched out his hand to Mu Qing's waist. Because of Hou San's incident, Mu Qing has always been very resistant to this kind of action, but before he could dodge, Li Chengming's hand had already held the jade plate on Mu Qing's waist.

There is a cyan jade plaque with the word "Zhuang" on it, with bright red tassels, which is very good-looking.

Li Chengming looked at the jade card, flipped the jade card back and forth on the palm of his hand a few times, and then said with a smile: "It seems that he is really good to you." His voice was low and hoarse, and it sounded very different from his usual heartiness.

Mu Qing pursed the corners of his mouth, and there was some disgust in his heart, but there was no trace of it on his face.

Li Chengming didn't want to embarrass him, he let go of the jade plate and straightened up, with his usual bright smile on his face: "Come on, get up, don't be tired of our Huiyuan Gong." ”

Mu Qing said "Write the prince" in a proper manner before getting up.

Li Chengming no longer looked at him, but at the old man, and said, "What's the matter?" ”

The old man didn't dare to slack off, and said: "Go back to the prince, this Mu Gongzi wants to visit my master, but the master has not come back from the mansion and the court, and the villain does not dare to let him in." ”

Li Chengming heard this "oh", looked back at Mu Qing, then squinted his eyes with a smile, and suddenly stretched out his long hand and grabbed Mu Qing's shoulder, Mu Qing was caught off guard by him, and his body was uncontrollable and went to Li Chengming. But Rao is like this, Mu Qing still can't break free from Li Chengming's confinement, this man doesn't look strong, but his strength is really terrifying.

"Don't think about it, just assume that the Yuan Gong is coming with this king." Li Chengming raised his chin and glanced at Mu Qing.

Mu Qing saw that he couldn't break free, so he was short, and deftly escaped from under Li Chengming's hands, and then exhaled softly, his eyes looked at Li Chengming, and he didn't have a trace of expression. Just when Li Chengming thought that this person was going to refuse him without knowing how to do it, he saw a smile on Mu Qing's face, and said, "It's really a chance to meet the prince here, and the prince is also here to visit Lord Liu?" But coincidentally, so do I," he said, ignoring Li Chengming's face, but his eyes looked at the old man, "Old man, that noble person is Lord Rui, right?" You see, I came with Lord Rui, and I asked the old man to be accommodating, so would you like me to go in? ”

The old man looked left and right, and was suddenly stunned by Mu Qing's ability to turn his face like a book. Seeing that Li Chengming still had a smile on his face and was not angry at all, he knew that he was going to take Mu Qing into the door, and the old man had no reason to stop him, so he flashed his body and said to the two: "Please also ask the prince and Mu Gongzi to go to the front hall first, and the villain will let people go to set the meal." ”

Although Mu Qing picked a very unkind time to visit-the best time to eat rice--but he didn't really covet the food of Liu's Mansion, so he thought about refusing, who knew that before he could speak, Li Chengming, who was speechless just now, smiled and said: "I'm tired, by the way, I don't know if the duck that I ate and got the wine when the king came last time?" ”

The old man replied, "The villain ordered the kitchen to do it." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Mu Qing, "I don't know what taboo Mu Gongzi has?" ”

Mu Qing couldn't refuse, so he simply followed the kindness and said with a smile: "I haven't had it." ”

The old man nodded and withdrew.

When the old man walked away, Li Chengming looked at Mu Qing with a smile and said: "Humanity without taboos is rare, and Mu Gongzi really has a good appetite." ”

The corners of Mu Qing's eyes twitched, isn't this person just sarcastic that he eats miscellaneous, wait, I'll let you know later, the young master can't help but eat miscellaneous, and eats a lot!

=============================================================================

Although Liu Shiren has always been honest and honest, as the saying goes, in ten years, the Qing prefect has 100,000 snowflakes of silver, and he naturally has oil and water to be fished out of being an official. Every year, it is not only the royal court that sends down the money, but also the filial piety of the underground officials, there is ice respect in summer, and charcoal respect in winter, plus Liu Shiren is a veteran of the two dynasties, and he has always been valued by a saint, and the reward is naturally indispensable.

If you want to go to the front hall, you have to pass through a garden first, Mu Qing looked at the pavilion in it, and couldn't help but admire: "This place is indeed beautiful." ”

Li Chengming, who was on the side, heard this and said with a smile: "Mr. Liu is also a southerner, so it is not surprising that he likes southern gardens. ”

"It's full of elegance, and it's really a garden scenery that only exists in the south, so it's no wonder Mr. Liu likes it." Mu Qing's eyes paused on the delicately carved railing for a while, and said lightly.

Li Chengming smiled: "Mr. Liu was not good at this, but Liu Guifei liked it at the beginning, and when he came to the province, he made people add this scenery, Mr. Liu also reprimanded Liu Guifei for being extravagant and wasteful at first, but later he also liked it very much, but now he looks at it very beautiful." ”

"It's a good story." Mu Qing said with a smile, but in his heart, he turned the river and the sea.

Liu Guifei is the mother who has raised Li Qianyu for several years, and listening to Li Chengming's words, Liu Guifei's mother's family is actually Liu Shiren.

Mu Qing frowned slightly and looked at Li Chengming, but the man seemed to only focus on appreciating the flowers and grass, and ignored him. But it was this calm and light-hearted attitude that became more and more suspicious, Mu Qing lowered his eyebrows, stopped talking, and his mind changed rapidly.

Li Chengming told himself about this, was it intentional or unintentional?

The author has something to say: life is not met everywhere, and when you go too far, you always have to meet people

Mu Xiaoqing, please be cautious in your words and deeds, and light a candle for you

I don't know if you still remember Hou San? It was the official who wanted to harm Mu Qing, grabbed him in public, and was beaten by Mu Qing with a full face, l3l4
