As twilight approached and pedestrians thinned out, the originally noisy streets seemed to become quiet in an instant, and people hurried to leave or return before the doors closed. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Lee House.

Li Mo hasn't come back yet, presumably he should have been detained by the fake mother of Drunken Moon Zhao at this time, or he was thinking about how to slip out of the encirclement of Drunken Moon Zhao's guys, Li Zhen thought to himself, but he was calm.

Li Zhen walked to his father's study with a worried face, at this time his father should be reading, or writing a recital for the imperial court, in short, this is the time that only belongs to his father.

Everyone in the house knew that no one could disturb my father until dinner, but he had to step into the room.

In terms of official positions, Liu Rui is only a small five-grade long history, this is a position without any real power, and it has become the preferred official position for degrading officials in the Tang Dynasty.

And the Yin of Gangneung Mansion is a local dignitary from Sanpin, holding the power of government affairs, and the comparison between the two can be described as a cloud and mud.

But Li Zhen knows in his heart that the backstage of the Liu family is Bai Minzhong, the prime minister of the dynasty, and it may not be long before Liu Rui will soar, such a person cannot be provoked by himself or his father, especially Liu Rui's character of retribution makes people feel more uneasy.

Whether it is the current Tang Dynasty or more than a thousand years later, all officialdom follows such a law: the first thing to do is good, and the bad is after.

To put it simply, it is to pat himself on the back before he soars, and if he hurts him, it must be after he is unlucky.

Liu Rui is not unlucky, but is about to prosper in official fortune, obviously this is not a good time to pit him, in order to avoid his father being implicated, Li Zhen knew that he had to bow his head, not to his father, but to the Liu family.

Maybe it's a trivial matter for my father, but the price is my own face, no, it's my father's face.

The candle flame in the study reflected an orange red through the window, but there was a silent figure outside the study, like an unyielding sword, stuck to the ground motionless.

"Uncle Xiao?" Li Zhen walked up to the man with a somewhat surprised expression.

This person's name is Xiao Liang, the word Zhongli, is Li Chengye's guard, and his only guard, he is nearly forty years old, and his body is really as thin as a sword, especially the thin face without human shape, Li Zhen has a very vivid analogy: "air-dried beef"

However, although Xiao Liang looks weak, it would be wrong if you really thought so.

According to his father, Xiao Liang is the Lanling Xiao clan of the Southern Liang royal family, although the Lanling Xiao clan is still one of the top gate valves of the Tang Dynasty, but his side branch has been in decline for a long time.

However, despite this, Xiao Liang can still find the arrogance in the bones of the scholar clan, Xiao Liang rarely speaks, and more often he just sees him repeatedly wiping the iron sword in his hand that has never been unsheathed.

Father said that Xiao Liang was good at swords, and when he was in Wuzong Huichang for three years, he had boiled tea and discussed swords with Shiyuan, the abbot of Songshan Shaolin monks, on the top of Songshan Mountain, and rested for seven days, and during these seven days, Xiao Liang and Shi Yuan tried the sword twenty-one times.

No one knows the details of the two people's sword discussions in these seven days, but since that time, Shi Yuan has decided to abandon the sword in this life.

At that time, Shi Yuan was already a world-famous swordsman in the entire Tang Dynasty, and he was able to force Shi Yuan to never use a sword, so you can imagine how exquisite Xiao Liang's swordsmanship was.

But despite this, Li Zhen has never seen Xiao Liang out of the sword, and even once his father sighed after drinking: If I can see Xiao Liang out of the sword, I will have no regrets in this life!

And this sentence is enough to show that even his father has never seen Xiao Liang take out a sword, so the question is, why is such a swordsmanship master after the gate lord of the scholar clan willing to be inferior to his father's side.

Of course, with Li Zhen's temperament, he didn't bother to ask his father about the reason, maybe even if he asked, his father might not necessarily say. What's more, at this time, I just want to see my father as soon as possible and explain everything that happened today.

Xiao Liang just nodded slightly, as he expected, he didn't answer, just still blocked the door, and didn't mean to get out of the way at all.

"Uncle Xiao, I have something important to do with my father!" Li Zhen said straight to the point.

Xiao Liang's answer was also very simple and rude: "No! ”

Li Zhen suddenly became angry, looked at the expressionless "air-dried beef face" in front of him, and suddenly had the urge to slap him a few times.

Of course, Li Zhen is very self-aware, I am afraid that before he does it himself, Xiao Liang will very happily fan his face into air-dried beef with one hand, and it is the best of the best that has been air-dried for ten years.

"Uncle Xiao, I really have something important, otherwise my father will be unlucky! My dad is unlucky, and you are not far from being unlucky! Li Zhen patiently explained, but in his heart, he scolded the entire Lanling Xiao clan as quickly as possible.

Xiao Liang glanced at Li Zhen, then raised his head to look ahead, and directly adopted an attitude of ignorance.

"Let that bastard come in!"

At this moment, a very kind voice came from the house, at least Li Zhen himself thought so.

Hearing this, Xiao Liang silently turned his body to the side, his eyes were still looking ahead, and he didn't look at Li Zhen at all.

Li Zhen was very angry, this kind of feeling of being ignored was very bad, but in the face of such a perverted master, he didn't dare to say or do it, so when Li Zhen passed by Xiao Liang's side, a spectacular scene of thousands of cute animals such as grass and mud horses roaring and galloping past instantly appeared in his heart.

Li Zhen cautiously pushed the door in, and saw his father buried in his pen and book.

Li Zhen honestly stood in place, waiting for a violent storm to come.

After a moment, Li Chengye put down the bamboo pen gently, and then raised his head to look at Li Zhen: "I know today's events!" ”

"Please punish my father!" Although Li Zhen is a bastard outside, he does not dare to be disrespectful in front of his father Li Chengye, and at this time he only sees him standing with his head down, as if he is admitting his mistakes, but in his heart he is looking for who betrayed him.

Li Mo was still drunk at this time, and it was obviously unlikely to be him.

"Sit down!" Li Chengye glanced at Li Zhen with his eyes and said softly, his tone was not as angry as he had imagined before.

Li Zhen looked at the futon on the ground, thought about his knees again, decisively rejected his father's proposal, shook his head and replied, "Let's stand!" ”

Li Chengye got up and stroked his robe, slowly walked to Li Zhen, and said softly: "Over the years, I may know better than you how many bastard things you have done outside, but the so-called punishment for your father is just to let you read more books, do you know your father's intentions?" ”

Li Zhen thought for a while and replied: "Father is asking Zhen'er to learn more skills from books and understand more truths!" ”

Unexpectedly, Li Chengye shook his head, smiled slightly, and said: "Hehe, what you said is also right, and it is not right, you don't have to learn from books, and those who have never read books in their lives may not understand the truth!" And who among those traitors who brought disaster to the country and the people was not full of poetry and books? ”
