Chapter 429: The Way Home (21)

Li Xun looked at the letter from his aunt Li Yi in his hand, and said lightly: "I already understand what my aunt means, the court will soon usher in a big storm, I stay in the quiet palace, stay away from political disputes, and sit and watch the situation change, it is indeed the best choice." ”

Sima Tu chuckled: "Since the lord has realized the truth, I have nothing to say, the lord is here to recuperate with peace of mind, I will go back to Fengjing first, if there is any change in the court, I will send someone to report it as soon as possible." ”

Li Xun nodded in agreement, Sima Tu is fine to stay here, it is okay to go back, if there is any news, he can know it as soon as possible.

"That being the case, the subordinates retired."

Sima Tu bowed his hand and was about to leave.

"By the way, there was something I almost forgot to tell you."

Li Xun stopped Sima Tu and said, "After you go back, write a ..... for me."

Cheng Bao once bribed Li Xun with a huge sum of 500,000 taels of silver, hoping to buy the Liangshuikou Ferry, which is a military stronghold, and is a frontier warning fortress connecting the Mulang River in Wuzhou.

In such an important place, Li Xun is not an idiot, how can he calculate the transaction with money and grain?

However, at that time, Li Xun was in a poor state of affairs, and there was an extreme shortage of money and food in his hands, so Cheng Leopard sent the money to the door, and Li Xun didn't think about the consequences, so he took it first and then talked about it to solve his urgent need.

After Cheng Bao gave the money to Li Xun, he repeatedly asked for land, Li Xun was delayed again and again, until he finally returned to Fengjing, Cheng Bao did not give up, and went to the governor's mansion all day long to make a big noise and insult Li Xun, how could Fan Zhongyun be polite, and immediately ordered someone to beat Cheng Leopard and throw him in prison for a few months.

At this time, Cheng Bao naturally understood that Li Xun was taking money and not doing anything, and wanted to be a scoundrel, so he reported the matter to his master, Zhao Antong, the king of Ji.

Zhao Antong is the thirteenth son of Pingzong, the half-brother of Zhao Zhi, and the prince, Li Xun does this, Zhao Antong should make a move, but the strange thing is that Li Xun has been back for more than half a year, and Zhao Antong has not made any moves.

However, a few days ago, Liu Xie came to the news, at the price of five thousand taels of silver, and finally found out the true news from the housekeeper of the Ji Palace, Zhao Antong was angry about what Li Xun did, but at that time, his favorite young son was in critical condition, so he had no time to pay attention to Li Xun for a while, and then, the political situation in the capital was turbulent, Zhao Antong was timid and did not dare to mess around, but half a month ago, his young son was finally ineffective in treatment, and died of illness in the house, Zhao Antong was grief-stricken, complaining about the heavens and people, and put everything that happened to him. It's all counted on Li Xun's head.

Zhao Antong was ready to attack Li Xun, but it was not Li Xun himself, but Li Xun's stepmother, Li Mancang's wife who had just renewed the string, Wang Zhen.

Although I didn't inquire about the specific plan, but to shoot at a woman, it is undoubtedly those tricks, for this stepmother, although Li Xun has no feelings, but Wang Zhen is also a kind person, Li Mancang loves it very much, she is really going to have an accident, she and Zhao Antong are really endless, Li Xun doesn't want to make things happen to this point.

It just so happened that Liu Congxi came to visit yesterday, asked Zhao Zhi on behalf of him, and asked Li Xun what his views and opinions were on his assassination.

After listening to Li Xun's narration, Sima Tu laughed dumbly, Li Xun also dared to do it, even the prince's money dared to black.

Fengjing.

Yanguo Mansion.

At noon, Liu Guanghui, the secretary of the Criminal Department, came out of the imperial city and returned home.

The door opened, and there was the housekeeper Uncle Hu standing behind the door, and I saw that he was very happy and happy.

Liu Guanghui said quite strangely: "Uncle Hu, why are you so happy? ”

"Third young master, the old lady has returned home."

As a young son, Liu Guanghui not only inherited the political status of his father Liu Jie, but also inherited the title of Duke of Yanguo, is the contemporary patriarch of the Liu family, the subordinate of the house, should call him the master, but Hu Song is a very old man with Liu family qualifications, when he was a teenager, he was Liu Jie's scholar, he was a small official for a few years when he was young, and his wife was Liu Guanghui's nurse for a short time. Hu Song called Liu Guanghui like this, although he relied on the old and sold the old, but judging from Liu Guanghui's disapproving expression, he called him Uncle Hu quite politely, and the relationship between the two was very close.

Hearing that his father was back, Liu Guanghui suddenly had a look of surprise on his face, and immediately strode into the house, and behind, Hu Song followed briskly, and reminded loudly: "The old lady is in the living room." ”

When I arrived in the living room, I saw Liu Jian sitting on the main seat above, Liu Guang was standing aside, and below, there was a thin man who was nearly thirty years old, and his appearance was quite similar to Hu Song's appearance, this person's name was Hu Xian, and he was the youngest of Hu Song's three sons.

Liu Guanghui strode into the living room, came to Liu Ji, his eyes were already red, he knelt on the ground, and kowtowed a few times: "My son meets my father." ”

Liu Wei looked thinner than a few months ago, and all the way back to Fengjing from his hometown was a difficult grind for an old man like him, who was nearly eighty years old.

Liu Wei stretched out his hand and pointed at Liu Guanghui, and Liu Guang beside him hurriedly stepped forward to help his younger brother.

Liu Wei looked at Liu Guanghui for a while, stroked his beard, nodded and smiled: "I haven't seen you for two years, my son's spirit has become more and more stable." ”

After Liu Guanghui was promoted to the post of Xiangguo, he has not returned to his hometown for more than two years, not that he doesn't want to go back, but Liu Wei does not allow it.

Liu Guanghui bowed and said: "The child has always remembered his father's teachings, and he does not dare to relax in the slightest. ”

Liu Yu smiled and said lightly: "Dogma is dead, people are alive, the world changes, what I once taught you may not be suitable for you in the future." ”

Liu Guanghui nodded, in a world that is half chaotic in the world, and in the position of the prime minister, the core position of power, without his own political wisdom, he cannot survive.

"Father, are you feeling better?"

Liu Guanghui asked with concern.

Liu Yu said indifferently: "People are old, at this age, it's not common to get sick, you don't need to worry." ”

After Yang Daosi's death, Liu Jian immediately set off to Fengjing, but less than a third of the journey, that is, his body could not support it, and he fell ill and fell into a coma, Liu Guang had to send Liu Jian home, and after five or six months of recuperation, his body was just better, and Liu Jian immediately set off for Fengjing.
