Liu Poyu finally believed Wang Kun's statement, because he really couldn't find a reason for this old eunuch who had worked hard for the Ye family for more than 40 years to lie, he was so old, and it was really inconsiderate to fight for power with the princes of the world, he was so old, he should find a quiet place with sunshine all year round, and the last little bit rotted in the warm sunshine.

The reason why he let him wander around the turbulent land of Zhongzhou with the jade seal regardless of the danger, looking for all the people who can help the light re-illuminate, is probably his loyalty to the Daxi Ye clan, or rather, to the emperor Ye Qing.

After the discussion, Wang Kun planned to set off immediately, but he was not in a hurry to take away the combat power of the Liu family, but let them continue to stand by, the best thing is to move the clan to the nearby county town, the rogue is raging more and more, continue like this, even if the combat power is as strong as the Liu family, it is not safe to continue to stay in such a small village.

But Liu Poyu persuaded him.

"Prince, the New Year is approaching, the prince and his entourage have been running around for more than half a year, and it is not bad for this meeting, it is not too late for me to finish this New Year, besides, look at the weather, I am afraid that it will snow heavily in recent days, or in the village, and when the snow is over, you should also rest for a few days, and you should save your strength, and wait for you to speed up on the road."

Wang Kun excused himself again and again, but he still couldn't resist Liu Poyu, so he had to agree to come down, saying that he would leave after the New Year, but it was only after the New Year, and he couldn't stay longer, Liu Poyu hurriedly said three good, and asked the servants to go down to prepare wine, and Wen Yu and Wu Ji They were also relieved, they had hardly slept well for half a year, and even their well-trained soldiers almost couldn't bear it, I don't know how Wang Kun could not even hum.

At dusk, the banquet was staggered, and after three rounds of drinking, the men began to hook their shoulders and call each other brothers, and the wine was drunk until midnight, and the people who had already drunk were carried back to their rooms by the servants.

The next day, it wasn't until the third pole of the day, the men who were drunk last night woke up one after another, Wang Kun was not drunk last night, so he got up early, and at this moment he was in a small school field in the stubborn stone village with Liu Poyu, watching the young generation of the Wang family practice on the school field.

The youngest of the young men was no more than sixteen or seventeen, and the oldest was only twenty-three or fourteen, and they fought in pairs, or wielded their skillful weapons out of thin air, or drew their bows and arrows, and shot one arrow after another at a target within a hundred paces.

"Prince, these young people are the elite of my Liu family, and in the future, they will all be the pillars of Daxi!" Liu Poyu laughed and patted Wang Kun's shoulder, "Everyone, it's like this!" ”

Wang Kun looked at those sweaty young people and nodded with satisfaction, "What General Liu said is reasonable!" They will all be the pillars of my Daxi in the future! ”

"It's better to ...... Let the prince pick a few of these young men and go. Liu Poyu suddenly suggested.

"Hey, didn't I say it," Wang Kun looked at Liu Poyu with a smile, "My trip, even I don't know what year and month I want to lobby to, and the road is even more difficult. ”

"I know, I know," Liu Poyu said with a smile.

"But young people, they always have to go out to experience and experience, they stay in such a small village all day, isn't it just to sit in a well and watch the sky? Only by going out and seeing more people and things, knowing how capable they are, letting them know that they are talents, and letting them know that the world is so big, there are many things they have never seen, and there are many things that they can't compare, so that they can really grow up, and the young people who grow up from such an environment can really be called 'pillars' in the future. ”

Listening to Liu Poyu's words, Wang Kun suddenly fell silent, and he nodded lightly, "What Old General Liu said is very right, it's me who is short-sighted!" ”

"How? Pick a few from the inside and go? Liu Poyu smiled at the suggestion.

"Not a few, only a maximum of three people," Wang Kun's expression was very serious, "First, my team can't have too many people, coming, this road is extremely dangerous, there are many wanderers, we may not know when we will die in some unknown small place, I take too many people, I am afraid that these pillars will die in the middle of the road because of me." ”

"So, it's only three people." Repeated.

Liu Poyu sighed softly, "Okay then, then listen to the prince." ”

"As for the candidates," Wang Kun suddenly said, "It's up to General Liu to decide, which three young people in the family you want to send out to practice, tell me, just show me, which of them are manufacturable, which ones are suitable for me to go to the world to say, and which ones are more suitable to stay in the stubborn stone and continue to practice, Old General Liu should know better than me." ”

Liu Poyu probably also felt that what Wang Kun said was reasonable, so he nodded lightly, then raised his head and glanced at the school field, and suddenly said loudly, "Liu Yichen!" Come to Grandpa's. ”

"Yes!" The young man named Liu Yichen stopped his movements all of a sudden, he stood up straight, trotted towards Liu Poyu, and looked at that posture, it was actually a standard military posture, compared with Wen Yu and the palace guards they had.

"Grandpa, you called me?" Liu Yichen stood still in front of Liu Poyu, his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and his mouth kept exhaling white air, it seemed that he was trying to calm his breathing.

Liu Poyu smiled and patted the young man in front of him who was wearing a burlap coat and was half a head taller than himself, and said with a smile, "Yichen, after the New Year, you will leave the stubborn stone with the prince next to me and go outside to experience and experience, I believe that you will learn a lot of things." ”

"Prince." Liu Yichen saluted Wang Kun, Wang Kun smiled and nodded, which was regarded as a promise, and then Liu Yichen frowned again and asked, "Grandpa, you said that you want me to leave the stubborn stone...... Experience? ”

"yes, what? Don't want to? ”

"Naturally, I am willing," Liu Yichen hurriedly waved at Liu Poyu, "What Grandpa asked me to do must be good for me, I know this!" ”

Liu Poyu smiled and stroked his beard with relief, "That's good." ”

"It's just that grandpa, Yichen still has questions." Liu Yichen still maintained the posture he had just made, and stood respectfully in front of Liu Poyu.

"But it doesn't hurt to say it." Liu Poyu waved his hand and let Liu Yichen let go of the question.

"I went out with the prince to practice, but I don't know where I am going. When will it return? What should I do along the way? Liu Yichen asked three questions in a row, and the two old men in front of him looked at each other and smiled,

There was no rush to answer.

"Where are you going?" It was Wang Kun who spoke this time, he looked at Liu Yichen with a smile, and said, "All over the world, where are the people I want to find, meet, and lobby, then we will go where and when we will return...... When the world is unified again, it will return!"

"As for what you changed along the way, it's better to ask your grandfather about this matter."

Liu Yichen turned his gaze to Liu Poyu again, Liu Poyu cleared his throat and said, "Along the way, you will obey the command of the prince, protect the prince all the way, and temporarily act as the prince's guard." ”

"Plus, you have to come back alive."

Liu Yichen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly laughed, "Yes, Yichen, you must come back alive." ”

Liu Poyu nodded lightly, and patted Liu Yichen's shoulder heavily, "Definitely!" ”

Liu Yichen, as Liu Poyu's great-grandson, he is undoubtedly the most dazzling one among his peers, he is obedient, self-motivated, extremely talented, Liu Poyu taught him, he almost learned to the point of "proficient", those young people who could have been called elites, because of Liu Yichen's peers, suddenly became eclipsed, because his light was too dazzling.

But no one will be jealous, they all know that this person named Liu Yichen is the key to revitalizing the Liu family in the East China Sea, and Liu Yichen really makes people jealous, he is a very well-behaved person, whether it is an elder or a peer who asks him to do something, he will try his best to do it, and if he can't do it, he will also make it clear to others, it is clear to him that he is the one who helps, but it makes people feel that he is the one who asks others to help.

He is a person born with a sense of leadership, and the peers around him will unconsciously take him as the center and obey his command, and the elders also favor him, especially Liu Poyu, even if Liu Poyu knows that this time to go out to "experience" is dangerous, he still decided to let Liu Yichen go, in fact, even if Wang Kun chooses someone else, he will recommend Liu Yichen, no why, just to let Liu Yichen see the world, so that he can grow from a pillar of talent to a real pillar.

......

At night, Liu Poyu suddenly called two young people, they and Liu Yichen's generation, their abilities are also very outstanding, one is good at using a longbow, named Liu Cheng, and the other is good at using a spear, but he is not good at killing, especially defense, named Liu Qin, these two people, one attack and one defense, cooperate together, and the combat power will only be higher.

Liu Poyu took a sip of tea, raised his head and looked at the two young men standing respectfully in front of him in front of him, and suddenly said, "After the New Year, you will go out with the prince to practice, learn more skills, along the way, you will be the prince's guard, but also Yichen's guard, compared with the two, Yichen's priority is higher than that of the prince, if you encounter a death battle, even if you die, you must keep Yichen alive!" ”

"Did you hear that?" Liu Poyu shouted in a low voice.

"Yes!" Liu Cheng and Liu Qin half-knelt down in unison, their heads bowed, like soldiers who obeyed the arrangement of the main general.

In the twelfth year of Tianfu, at the beginning of January, Wang Kun and his party left the stubborn stone and began to move farther away, but this time, there were three more people in their team.

Many years later, Liu Yichen drank under the moon, recalled this period of time, and just sighed, "Heroes and heroes from all over the world, a certain person who admires the most, and the prince also." ”
