Chapter 66: Four Sentences of Hengqu

"This ......"

Li Yan was stunned and was silent for a while.

Liu Zheng faced Liu Shi: "Dad, look, is this question difficult?" If it were you, I was seriously injured, but would I stay for foreign affairs? ”

"Nature doesn't ......"

Liu Shi frowned, only then did he realize this problem, and looked at Li Yan with a puzzled face.

Liu Zheng squinted at Li Yan and said, "What's more, I'm also curious, my uncle has a word, why does Brother Li only have a cheap name?" ”

The corners of Li Yan's mouth twitched, and his face suddenly turned a little ruddy.

"Deran, this is your uncle's family matter, you ......"

Liu Shi wanted to persuade him, but Liu Zheng waved his hand and said coldly: "Don't tell me anything about family affairs." Brother Li has a life-saving grace for our family, but I just can't get used to seeing him being snubbed by his family. Again, that's the first question. If you don't even pay attention to your loved ones, how dare I leave such an uncle by your side. According to his performance today, if he can tolerate Zhang Ren humiliating me like this, he will not dare to say a word if Tong Yuan comes to the door tomorrow, maybe he will kill you. ”

"Ridiculous, how can you kid ......"

"Yuan Qi, okay, don't defend me."

Li Yan took a deep breath and said with a wry smile: "I didn't think about a small move, but Deran was able to observe the subtleties. It is true that the old man neglects Ah Cheng on weekdays. The matter ...... It's not that it's impossible to say. Ah Cheng was actually born to me and my humble maidservant, and when Humble Jing was not married, the old man was drunk and confused. After the maid gave birth to Ah Cheng, but also depressed and gone, clumsy Jing and could not have children, although he was raised to see Ah Cheng on weekdays, clumsy Jing still has a mustard in his heart, is not given a word, or Ah Cheng is empathetic, and there is no mustard. The old man is ......"

Li Yan sighed, "The old man is a man in the rivers and lakes, and he was a lonely man in the past, but since he retired to the rivers and lakes with his senior brother, the Yan family has suffered a lot of misfortunes, and he feels a lot of guilt in his heart. Naturally, I will not be disobedient on weekdays. And Ah Cheng didn't complain, he didn't think about it, and he wanted to ask for justice. ”

Liu Zheng suddenly frowned and said: "That's why my aunt is prejudiced against Brother Li, so she will drag my mother, thinking that Ah Cheng will be able to see him sooner or later, heh, it's really warm!" Can it be said that in the eyes of your uncle's family, your senior brother and disciple are more important than Brother Li? ”

"Isn't it just that I'll see you sooner or later?"

Li Yan's face turned bitter and said frankly: "I grew up with my senior brother since I was a child, and we have a deep friendship. Ah Ren is his first apprentice, and if he is an heir, he happens to come to look for me now, and as an elder, I naturally have to take care of me. What's more, Ah Cheng is fine, that's why he ......"

He arched his hand and said: "De Ran, the old man still has to persuade me, you also said before that you were provoking my senior brother, you should have expected such a scene." Although Ah Ren is doing something nonsense, but with what he has encountered now, he will also reflect on it in the future, and he can't be locked up for a lifetime, right? ”

"Uncle doesn't bother with this matter. After all, he is the mastermind. I didn't know how to report when I visited my mother, cursed my mother, provoked me to compete, and misinterpreted and slandered me, a member of the Han family, these major crimes, even if I killed him, it is not an exaggeration. ”

Li Yan's breath stagnated, and Liu Shi also shouted: "Deran ......"

Liu Zheng waved his hand and pondered.

Geng Qiuyi entered the door, handed out ginger soup, and knelt aside.

Liu Zheng took a sip of ginger soup, thought about it, and asked Geng Qiuyi to prepare supper, and waited until Geng Qiuyi went out for a long time before he asked: "Brother Li marched with me to fight, I don't know if my uncle has heard about it?" ”

Ah CD said. The old man also agreed to this. ”

Li Yan hesitated for a moment, "It's just that he can't train soldiers......"

Syllable!

There was a crisp sound, and the porcelain bowl shattered.

Everyone was startled, and saw Liu Zheng shouting with his sleeves up: "Pedant old thief!" Get the hell out of here! ”

Liu Shi hurriedly said: "Deran, what are you doing?" ”

Li Yan clenched his fists and suppressed his anger, and said with a wry smile: "Deran, I have heard from your father's place that you have military armor on your chest and poetry books on your belly, but it is too rude to use this method to provoke me to agree, right?" ”

"What is rude to talk to you, a disloyal and unrighteous man?"

Liu Zhengsheng's face flushed, "My Han Dynasty is in danger for 400 years!" Nowadays, most of the people who march use the ring-headed sword as the standard weapon. You are quite famous in the rivers and lakes with your sword skills, as a role model for martial artists, you don't want to do your best to serve the country, you don't want to say anything about yourself, but you still want to beat the challenger! This age, blocking people's paths, not thinking about flexibility, since it is useless, old and not dead, what is it if it is not a thief?! ”

This moral kidnapping made Liu Zheng blush, but now the world values benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith, and Li Yan is famous, and he loves to eat this set when he wants to.

Sure enough, Li Yan hugged his fists and smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Deran, the old man also knows that the eldest husband should dedicate himself to the country, do his best, and die. It's just that the old man doesn't want to do this, the old man just doesn't want to see my son too sharp, and he won't end up well. ”

Liu Zheng was stunned, and Li Yan sighed: "Deran knows that I have a battle with Wang Jingshi, but I don't know that I and Wang Jingshi also sympathize with each other. Do you know how high-spirited Wang Jingshi was when he was admired by the people of the rivers and lakes with his swordsmanship! But since he entered the officialdom, he has become a tiger general, guarding His Majesty's left and right, and seems to be in a high position, but he is just walking on thin ice all day long, lest he be framed by villains, and he will not die well. I sealed the knife that day and no longer accepted apprentices, and I also made up my mind not to enter the ranks again. ”

When Li Yan said this, he said bitterly: "Knowing the son is more than the father." If you talk about going into battle to kill the enemy, the sword technique passed on by the teacher is the art of killing, Ah Cheng has my true inheritance, and I will temper it in the future, and I can't have a career. However, Ah Cheng has a pure nature, and if he kills the enemy and makes meritorious contributions, he is a martial artist in the eyes of others, and he is not to be feared. ”

"But if you train soldiers, you must not be supported by others, and when you enter the officialdom, you will stand out for others, or you will be jealous, and he will have the heart to assist you, even if you hit your head and bleed, the old man will not complain. But if you are implicated...... Deran, the officialdom is complicated, often involuntarily, more bloody and cruel than the straight on the rivers and lakes, that is, you are a member of the Han family, if today's holy Chrysostom is opened, how can you protect it? I'll wait ......"

Li Yan sighed: "After all, it's just an ant." I have the heart to beat you, but I also don't want you to be half-hearted, if you want to make a contribution, you should do things well, so why bother to get involved in the affairs of the rivers and lakes? ”

"Your uncle has good intentions, but he has done bad things with good intentions, and you, as a junior, should also understand."

Liu Shi added.

Liu Zheng suddenly realized, he didn't expect Li Yan to have such a reason, but after he figured it out, he sneered at Liu Shi: "Dad, to tell the truth, you two are both pedantic people." ”

"You ......"

Liu Shi was still angry, remembering that everything he had done in the past few days was based on his own son, and said with a wry smile: "Okay, I confessed it for my father, but I don't know what advice my son has?" ”

Li Yan was also stunned, waiting for Liu Zheng's next words.

"How does the world compare today with ten years ago?"

Liu Zheng asked.

Liu Shi smiled bitterly: "The world is going down. ”

"How am I better than I was ten years ago?"

Liu Shi was stunned, "Naturally, my father is impressed, your talent is a hundred times better than mine." ”

"Am I you, then?"

Liu Shi said as a matter of course: "Naturally not...... Deran, if you have something to say, don't be embarrassed for your father. ”

Liu Zheng stretched out a finger and said: "This first question, you answer the world, it means that the situation is changing all the time, the child wants to say, your experience is applicable before, but not necessarily now!" ”

Liu Shi and Li Yan suddenly looked at each other, and at the same time were stunned, thinking about it.

He stretched out his second finger, "This second question, we are all growing, that is, our knowledge is not as good as yours, and our connections are not as good as yours, but we are growing up with the past ten years, not like you have already experienced some, bound by knowledge, and resting on our laurels and not thinking of forging ahead." ”

Liu Shi smiled bitterly, he knew this matter very well, if he didn't think that his son was not capable, how could he only think of being the county magistrate of Dingxing until now.

Liu Zheng stretched out his third finger, "This third question, since you are not me, how do you know what I think in my heart?" How do you know I don't have a chance to get ahead? How do you know that the future will turn out exactly what you think? Maybe I'll soar and enjoy my old age? ”

Li Yan's expression was moved.

Liu Zheng shook three fingers, pointed at the two of them back and forth, and scolded: "The Han family is hanging upside down, and everyone is in danger!" I am incompetent and short-sighted, trying in vain to protect myself, relying on a word at home, I want to turn all the people around me into cowardice like you! also came up with a set of wise wording to protect one's self, everything is for the good of the children, all of which are nonsense! It's just for your own peace of mind! No gallant rats, rats are blind! ”

Liu Shi and Li Yan suddenly fell silent, and his face was full of guilt.

Liu Zheng looked at Liu Shi: "Dad, you have read the sage books all your life, and you also taught me to be a gentleman on weekdays, but what is a gentleman?" Today, let me understand my uncle, no longer be angry and abusive, and abide by the courtesy of father and son, this is a gentleman? After all, it's a little gossip! ”

Liu Zheng clenched his fists and threw his hands to the sky, blessed to the soul, and said awe-inspiringly: "As a gentleman, we should establish our hearts for heaven and earth, establish our lives for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations!" ”

"Deran ......"

Liu Shi's pupils suddenly widened, remembering Liu Zheng's previous ambition of a tiger and wolf, he grabbed Liu Zheng's arm, and his body trembled violently.

Li Yan was also shocked, ashamed.

"This is a word that will last for a hundred years!"

Someone clapped hands outside the door and came in.

Liu Zheng was stunned, and saw an old woman with gray hair and plain clothes, but a graceful temperament walking in.

"The old Li Yan clan is fortunate to be a distant relative of Liu Gongzi, and it is an honor!"

Yan Yu made a blessing and said with a smile: "Previously, the old body was still dissatisfied with Liu Gongzi's aggressive behavior, and only then did Liu Gongzi make a remark, only to know that Liu Gongzi has lofty ambitions, and the old body admires it." ”
