Chapter 15: The New Game 2

Obviously, after hearing a number of questions, Liu Zuochen just refused to ask questions, and made up his mind that it was much better to wait for his father to return to Kyoto from the border to resume his life and then discuss, which was much better than showing his shirt in front of Prince Qing.

First of all, Liu Zuochen still rejects Prince Qing's intentions, and he doesn't have much contact with him when he wanders on the edge, he has always thought it is necessary.

Seeing Liu Zuochen blinking his eyes slyly, Prince Qing almost became angry, and this bastard boy's kung fu of pretending to be stupid and stunned was good again. Obviously, there are flaws in the words and outside the words, so that Liu Zuochen can inquire, and he will push the boat here to break some things, but this kid just refuses to go to the road.

Damn, I've been blind in the past few years with all the effort I have put in on this kid, no, Prince Qing thought so, and said: "Presumably, eight years ago, you will also have some opinions, let's talk about it, if the border army also comes to such a scene, involving you Lao Tzu, how would you feel?" ”

That's the rhythm of catching ducks on the shelves!

"Ugh! ......, what can you think? Believe me, I'm not confused! ”

Liu Zuochen, who looked innocent, said softly, in the eyes of Prince Qing, he looked like he was undisciplined, what is this? As soon as he retreated to six, two, five, he pushed himself cleanly, and even said a euphemistic word so unpleasantly. Is this a foolish thing? The brain is much clearer, hasn't the emperor still taken off his head?

Is it too much of a rush, or is it expecting too much. Prince Qing, who was secretly thinking about it, secretly took a long breath, it was not impossible to beat this kid, but after all, his identity Liu Zuochen was too sensitive, the son of the general, the squire of the Emperor's Ministry of Labor, or the concubine of the court, this series of titles is really worrying.

Expose him to the fact that he secretly traded with foreign trade? Prince Qing, who was thinking about it, shook his head secretly, Liu Zuochen is still a fragrant gluttonous in the eyes of the emperor at present, at least every year to help the poor and homeless people saves a lot of money for the imperial court.

was touched by someone with a heart, and found out that it was the tone of Prince Qing's father, which made the emperor secretly happy and made the relationship between his camp more and more difficult to clean up, which did all kinds of harm but no benefit. If you can't catch the deer, don't let the deer graze, this method will not help. It's better to start with Liu Shangwu, and it's not too late to tear your face when the mountains and rivers are exhausted.

Prince Qing, who was thinking like this, smiled quietly, "It's a filial child!" This king, I will go to the palace in a moment to greet the queen mother, you ......"

"Oh, you're busy, you're busy."

provoked Prince Qing not to see him, this is obviously a euphemism to thank the guest, Liu Zuochen smiled wryly, and said goodbye and left the house.

Just like Prince Qing and Zhao Pengfei, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Liu Zuochen can't estimate whether he can maintain it if he doesn't have a relationship between the old man or Lao Tzu.

I don't like their way of doing things, and I don't like their hidden thoughts. When you should shoot, you will never be soft, you must do everything you should plan, it should be such a style of doing things, if you want others to work for you, then you have to come up with enough integrity to make people trust! Liu Zuochen, who was thinking so, turned around and glanced at the gate of Prince Qing's mansion, pouted and walked away.

Happily returning to the General's Mansion, he had just turned over and dismounted, and the door door was running over.

"Childe, not long ago, someone from the palace came to spread the word, saying that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince invited you into the palace to talk." Taking the reins from Liu Zuochen's hand, the door jar said that he was not in a hurry to take the horses away, and the son, who never liked to be a sedan chair, rode around Kyoto City, which was also a thing to talk about, especially the sedan chair drivers in the general's mansion, when they were idle, they exaggerated and boasted that they had nothing to do all day.

The news was received quickly, and the action was indeed fast enough! Liu Zuochen, who frowned, secretly said that his shop had not yet set foot in a step, and he was going to go to this palace twice, and he really didn't know whether to live for them or for himself, and took the reins depressedly and muttered in his heart, this Kyoto is really not a place.

After entering the palace, can you really go to the prince first? Even if the emperor doesn't say it, he will inevitably be panicked in his heart, and this will make you not want to see the kid before he gives way? Wouldn't it be self-inflicted on giving you a little shoe to wear later?

Father-in-law Sun, who was found outside the Yangxin Palace, said that the emperor had not yet gone to the early court today, and he was in a very happy mood.

is indeed in a good mood, Liu Zuochen, who was in a good mood after meeting the emperor, could clearly feel that for some reason, the emperor with a faint flush on his face waved away and drove away Grandpa Sun and re-brewed the new tea with his own hands.

The emperor is as kind as an old man in his own house, he has completed the steps of warming the cup and washing the tea, and is brewing the tea in an orderly manner, when he raised his head slightly and asked, "Do you know anything about tea?" Let's hear it. ”

To tell the truth, Liu Zuochen's understanding of tea is only simply in the cognition of quenching thirst, and he knows a few poems about tea.

"Thousands of choices between the white clouds, the copper pot is roasted and fried on firewood. The mud pot is mellow and poetic, and the porcelain ou is green and happy. The old man is enlightened and raises Yazhi, and Yuan Liang talks about dispelling the noise of vulgarity. Without going through Nirvana, how can you keep the source fresh. ”

"Hehehe...... this is Wang Xinjian's poem "Song of Tea". Handing Liu Zuochen a cup of tea, the emperor looked at Liu Zuochen's eyes, and said: "I don't like vassal elegance, but my understanding of tea is still different from others." ”

Liu Zuochen couldn't guess what the emperor was thinking, so he smiled slightly and didn't dare to have any different colors, and it should be a good idea to be a loyal listener silently.

"Tea is born among the white clouds,...... Some of them are too ethereal, and they are not really the elegance that literati and artists deliberately pursue. Tea is similar to all living beings, if you have no choice, you have to compete for the morning and sun, and you have to work hard to grow up, right? All you can choose is to try to grow into thick and broad old leaves, perhaps ......, so that they will not be picked by the tea pickers, and they will not be decorated in boiling water. ”

Quietly listening to the emperor's self-care narration, Liu Zuochen was stunned with a teacup and didn't drink it, this way of understanding is easy to understand, and suddenly he seemed to understand something, and he couldn't grasp the main point in his ignorance, so he couldn't help frowning slightly and thinking deeply.

"Man, too! From birth, it is destined to be the mission of this life, or to do something for yourself or for your family, just like a piece of tea has to tell the world that it is a leaf, born to ingest the bright rain and dew for the tea tree, and it falls to become the nutrients of the tea tree. I sometimes think ...... that if I have the ability, I will never want to be picked arbitrarily. ”

There is a reason for what the emperor said, in the rivers and mountains under his rule, how can Danfan not notice the slightest disturbance? Fortunately, the kid in front of him is quite satisfactory to him, once there are displaced people or bandits, he always spares no effort to help, either to help the victims or to lead people to encircle and suppress, which makes him very happy.

liking or appreciating it does not mean that the emperor will indulge him Liu Zuochen has other thoughts when he is full-fledged. When he got the news, it was said that Liu Zuochen and Princess Ruxuan were quite harmonious when they saw each other, and they were even more overjoyed, and the faintly worried past, which also made the emperor feel a lot more at ease.

"I, just talk about it, you don't have to think too much."

Seeing Liu Zuochen's thoughtful look, the emperor knew that he understood the implicit meaning of his words, and as for how much he understood, I believe he would slowly understand.

It is indeed understood, Liu Zuochen not only understands the hidden meaning of the emperor's words, but also understands part of the emperor's heart, and regards grass mustard as having life as his emperor's heart of benevolence and love for the world, what about the other way around? Isn't it just that life is regarded as grass mustard, which can be picked as he wishes?

Liu Zuochen doesn't know if this assertion is correct, but only comparing it with the court changes launched by the emperor eight years ago, it should be eight times out of ten that it can be determined. smiled innocently and didn't deliberately hide his deep thoughts, "The holy golden and jade words have made Wechen benefit a lot, thank you to the emperor for your allocation, so that Wechen will not be too confused." The words came out like this, but Liu Zuochen couldn't compare himself to a leaf like a dead thing, people have the ability to think and act, he thought.

The audience can't be a clay sculpture without thoughts, people say that it can really be a step if it is casually talked? At this time, Liu Zuochen thought it was too necessary to show his true and false intentions. The meaning of the words is also obvious, in the eyes of the emperor, a tea picker, a piece of new tea that can be picked at any time, and still has the ability to fight? Obviously, fighting is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, at least the current Liu Zuochen has no ability to fight.

Hahaha...... the emperor laughed out loud, and said in his heart, the son can be taught!

"Come, I'll add you another cup of tea!" It can be seen that the emperor at this time is really happy, "Ruxuan's girl...... is my favorite one." ”

"On the sage, Weichen saw Princess Ruxuan yesterday, and Princess Ruxuan is very ...... Very loving. Liu Zuochen originally wanted to say that he was very kind, but he was afraid that the emperor would understand, so he changed it to benevolence, he was worried that the emperor would eat like the old man did that time - Lao Tzu would not be kind!? Although the emperor is really not kind, this benevolence is different, and the emperor's "benevolence and love for the world" is a catchy compliment for the courtiers.

"Oh, it's been a short time since I could make that assertion, I guess it's been mixed with something else." Stretching out his arm and adding tea to Liu Zuochen, the emperor raised his eyebrows slightly and said slowly.

“…… Your Majesty the Emperor,... Be... A little. Liu Zuochen really didn't dare to say more.

"Well, in the future...... Your father, Liu Shangwu, and that Lehi will be my right-hand men, and some things should be taken lightly, so don't make things so bad that they are out of control. ”

This is obviously something in the words! Now Daddy isn't his right-hand man? Future? Doesn't such a statement just confirm Prince Qing's speculation? Thinking like this, Liu Zuochen hurriedly picked up the teacup and took a sip to cover it up.
