Chapter 393: Complex Relationships
Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!
Wang Ba nodded his head, grinned, laughed heartlessly, and said: "Although Zhong Xian's words are ugly, they are also true, no matter who you work under your hands, it is not as comfortable as working under the hands of the lord!" ”
Liu Xiu looked at the three of them and smiled helplessly, since the three of them had already come to Wancheng, there was no reason for him to go out again. He said to the housekeeper on the side: "Liu Quan, you go and arrange a room for each of them." ”
Liu Quanle arched his hand and said, "Yes, son!" The villain will arrange it! ”
During this time, although Liu Xiu often met guests, how could Liu Quan, who was waiting for him, not feel whether he was happy or unhappy, even if Liu Xiu was smiling at others, he could feel the gloom in his heart.
The arrival of Zhu You, Feng Yi, and Wang Ba, Liu Xiu didn't seem very happy on the surface, but Liu Quan could feel it, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of joy, he hadn't felt this emotion on Liu Xiu for a long time.
Liu Quanxian left with Zhu You, Feng Yi, and Wang Ba and settled them in the mansion.
After choosing a place to live, the three of them changed their clothes again, and then returned to the lobby. Zhu You said: "Lord, I heard Liu Quan say that Miss Yin has arrived in Wancheng today and is now living in Zhuangzi outside the city. ”
Liu Xiu nodded and said, "It's Wancheng who arrived in the morning, and someone sent someone to deliver the news at noon." ”
Zhu You asked, "Why don't you go to see Miss Yin first?" ”
Wang Ba snorted dissatisfiedly, and said: "The day after tomorrow is the day of marriage, and before getting married, the lord and Miss Yin can't see each other." ”
Zhu You muttered, "Is there still such a custom?" ”
You don't even understand this? Wang Ba rolled his eyes and didn't speak again. Liu Xiu said with a smile: "Yin Gong has arrived in Wancheng, and I also need to pay a visit." ”
Zhu You smiled: "Let's go with the lord!" ”
Liu Xiu shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said, "You can go if you want!" ”
asked Liu Quan to prepare a generous gift, and Liu Xiu took Zhu You, Feng Yi, Wang Ba and others to Zhuangzi outside the city.
There was nothing to say all the way, and when he came to the outside of the village, Liu Xiu asked his subordinates to go in to report. It didn't take long for Yin Consciousness and Yin Xing to come out from inside. Seeing Liu Xiu, the two brothers were all smiling, and arched their hands and said, "Uncle Wen! ”
"Second uncle, Junling!" Liu Xiu returned the salute.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you lately?" Yin Zhi and Yin Xing are very concerned about Liu Xiu's current situation, and when they see him at this time, they feel thinner than before, but they are stronger than before, and their spirit is also good.
"It's good, it's good!" Liu Xiu greeted the Yin Zhi and Yin Xing brothers while walking into the Zhuangzi. In the lobby of Zhuangzi, Liu Xiu saw Yin Lu.
Yin Lu's health has always been bad, this time he went out, and after walking such a long way, the old man's face was not very good-looking, and he was a little pale.
Liu Xiubi respectfully bowed to Yin Lu Shen and said, "The younger generation pays a visit to Yin Gong. ”
Yin Xing joked with a smile on the side: "The day after tomorrow is the day when Uncle Wen and Lihua are happy, and now Uncle Wen should also change his words." ”
When Liu Xiu heard this, his face was slightly red, and he looked at Yin Lu, and then knelt on the ground to give a big salute, and said with a straight face: "Uncle Wen to meet my uncle!" ”
In the Han Dynasty, there was no such title as father-in-law and father-in-law, and sons-in-law usually referred to their father-in-law as 'maternal uncle' or 'mother-in-law'.
Because Liu Xiu was anxious to marry Lihua, Yin Lu was a little unhappy, but now that he saw Liu Xiu, he didn't show dissatisfaction, waved his hand to Liu Xiu with a smile, and said, "Uncle Wen, please get up!" ”
"Uncle Xie!" Liu Xiu got up and said a few more polite words to Yin Lu, and everyone sat down one after another. Yin Lu asked with concern, "Is Uncle Wen good in Wancheng?" ”
Liu Xiu smiled and said, "Thanks to my uncle's blessing, Uncle Wen is all right." ”
Yin Lu nodded, his daughter is about to marry Liu Xiu, if Liu Xiu can be well, his own daughter can also be fine. They were talking in the lobby when a servant came in to report that the prince of Chengguo had come to visit.
Hearing the news of Wang Feng's arrival, Liu Xiu was stunned, but Yin Lu was taken aback. Wang Feng is one of the leaders of the Green Forest Department, and the culprit who killed Liu Xuan is the Green Forest Department, what does Wang Feng mean by coming to visit now?
Yin Lu subconsciously looked at Liu Xiu with a nervous face. Liu Xiu was only slightly surprised, but he didn't think much about Wang Feng's visit, and said to Yin Lu: "Since it is Chengguo Gong who came to visit, my uncle should go out of the house to greet him!" ”
He ...... But he ......"
"Uncle don't worry, Cheng Guogong is just visiting, and he shouldn't have any other intentions." Liu Xiu comforted with a calm expression. Seeing that Liu Xiu didn't have any nervousness on his face, Yin Lu, Yin Zhi, and Yin Xing also felt weird, wasn't the Green Forest Department the culprit who killed Liu Xiu, they should also be regarded as a thorn in Liu Xiu's side, a thorn in the flesh, why Liu Xiu was not afraid of the king at all
Phoenix?
No matter how much confusion there is in my heart, people have already arrived outside the house, and they can't hide, so they can only go to meet them. Yin Lu straightened the clothes on his body and walked out quickly.
At this time, standing outside the gate of the mansion was really Wang Feng, and there were two others with Wang Feng, who were also Liu Xiu's old acquaintances, Yin Zun and Zong Tong.
Yin Zun and Zong Tong fought side by side with Liu Xiu in Kunyang, and they were both one of the heroes of Kunyang's victory. At this time, seeing Liu Xiu following behind Yin Lu and walking out of the mansion, both of them were happy.
After Yin Lu saw Wang Feng, he lifted the hem of his clothes and wanted to kneel down and kowtow to give a big salute, Wang Feng hurriedly stepped forward, supported Yin Lu who was about to kneel in time, and said: "Yin Gong is such a big gift, isn't it tormenting the younger generation!" ”
Yin Lu misunderstood Wang Feng's arrival, he thought that Wang Feng was here to find trouble and came to Liu Xiu, so he behaved so respectfully.
Wang Feng held Yin Lu's arm, turned his head to look at Liu Xiu helplessly, and said, "Uncle Wen, quickly persuade Yin Gong, I can't afford such a big gift!" ”
Liu Xiu sighed secretly, he was in a difficult situation, which made the Yin family a frightened bird. He held Yin Lu's arm and said, "Uncle, Cheng Guogong and Uncle Wen are close friends, so Uncle Wen doesn't have to give a big gift." ”
Wang Feng nodded beside him and said, "Yes, Yin Gong, Uncle Wen and I are like brothers, Yin Gong is such a big gift, wouldn't it hurt the younger generation?" ”
Liu Xiu's personal relationship with Wang Feng is indeed very good, although Wang Feng is one of the leaders of the Green Forest Department, but in the matter of harming Liu Xuan, he is really just a bystander.
Yin Lu, Yin Zhi, and Yin Xing were stunned when they heard this, Liu Xiu and Wang Feng turned out to be friends? Isn't there an incompatible relationship between him and the Green Forest Department?
Speaking of which, the relationship between them is complicated in the wrong, and there are private feelings in the official affairs, and there are official affairs in the private affairs, which cannot be clearly explained in a few words.
Wang Feng said: "I heard that Yin Gong came to Wancheng, as a junior, I should come to visit. ”
Seeing that Wang Feng did not look like he was looking for trouble, Yin Lu breathed a sigh of relief. Liu Xiu said: "This is not a place to speak, Cheng Guogong, please inside." ”
"Please!"
Entering the lobby, Yin Lu wanted Wang Feng to sit on the main seat in the middle. Wang Feng insisted on refusing and insisted on sitting at the next hand. Yin Zun and Zong Tong first greeted Yin Lu, and then talked to Liu Xiupan.
This time, the two of them made great contributions in the battle of Kunyang, and they were both crowned marquis, which can be described as a spring breeze.
As the leader of Kunyang's great victory, Liu Xiu was not only not made a marquis, but was deprived of the military power in his hands, and now he has become an idler at home.
Speaking of which, Yin Zun and Zong Tong were also embarrassed and upset for Liu Xiu. Wang Feng smiled and interjected: "Uncle Wen, I have neglected Your Majesty, please give Your Majesty a knighthood!" ”
Liu Xiule arched his hand to Wang Feng and said, "Thank you Chengguogong." ”
"Hey, you and my brother, what else do you need to be polite?" Wang Feng said disappreciably.
Liu Xiu didn't care about the title, especially Liu Xuan's knighthood, for him, it was simply a humiliation of changing direction. But he can't say this kind of thing, and Wang Feng is really good to him.
Watching Liu Xiu talk and laugh with Wang Feng, Zong Tong, and Yin Zun, these people from the green forest department, it is not the kind of intrigue he imagined at all.
Liu Xiu and the others sat in the Zhuangzi for an hour, then got up and said goodbye to Yin Lu.
According to tradition, Liu Xiu and Yin Lihua have never met, but when they were leaving, Liu Xiu received a piece of jade pendant from Yin Lihua's maid.
Liu Xiu's face was puzzled, and she didn't understand why Lihua gave her another jade pendant. The maid said cautiously: "The jade pendant that the young lady gave to the son earlier has been damaged. ”
As she spoke, the maid also deliberately looked at the jade pendant on Liu Xiu's waist.
This jade pendant has cracks, which was left by Liu Xiu during the battle of Kunyang.
Although it was damaged, he was reluctant to throw it away and still wore it on his body. Unexpectedly, Lihua never showed up, but she even noticed such a small detail.
Liu Xiu's heart warmed, accepted the jade pendant sent by the maid, and asked, "How is your young lady lately?" ”
"Miss is very good, but she is quite worried about Childe."
Liu Xiu nodded and said with a smile: "After I go back, tell Lihua on my behalf that everything is fine for me, don't worry about me." ”
"Yes! Son! ”
Because Wang Feng and the others were still waiting for him, Liu Xiu and the little maid didn't talk much, they simply said a few words, and then turned around and left. On the way back to Wancheng, Liu Xiu and Wang Feng rode horses and walked side by side.
After walking for a while, Wang Feng took the lead in breaking the silence, he sighed softly and said, "I really can't do anything about Bosheng, Uncle Wen didn't blame me, right?" ”
Liu Xiu smiled indifferently and said, "How can I blame Cheng Guogong for this!" ”
The murder of the eldest brother, even if Wang Feng could not be unaware of it, he was definitely not the mastermind, and Liu Xiu could still tell this clearly.
In addition, when he returned to Wancheng, he was able to stay safe and sound, and the people of the Green Forest Department never came to trouble him, which must also be related to Wang Feng.
He said: "If it weren't for the protection of Chengguo Gong, Xiu probably wouldn't be safe and sound today." ”
Wang Feng waved his hand and said, "Uncle Wen, don't say that, I didn't actually do anything. ”
Regarding Liu Xiu's matter, Wang Feng was full of guilt for Liu Xiu. It's just that although he has a high prestige in the green forest system and is on an equal footing with Wang Kuang, there are some things that he really can't control alone.
Entering the city, Liu Xiu said goodbye to Wang Feng, and the two went back to their respective homes. Back home, Zhu You said: "This time Wang Feng made a special trip to visit the Yin family, which not only dispelled the concerns of the Yin family, but also showed the status of the lord in the court. ”
Liu Xiu nodded, Wang Feng did mean this. Wang Feng is a person, as long as he does not damage his own interests, he can do a lot of things for you, and it seems that he is a friend worth making. And once it comes to his own interests, then in Wang Feng's eyes, there is no one else, only himself. So in Liu Xiu's opinion, Wang Feng can make friends, but it is not enough to be trusted.
