After Yang Lian arrived in Kaifeng, except for Liu Chengxun personally receiving Yang Lian at the beginning, after that, Yang Sui, who was ordered to negotiate with Yang Lian, was not in a hurry to negotiate with Yang Lian, Yang Lian guessed that this might be Liu Xin's suggestion. No matter what Yang Wei thought, Yang Lian was not in a hurry, and Yang Wei did not negotiate with him, but gave Yang Lian more and enough time to investigate the distribution of power in the Han State and the situation in all aspects of Kaifeng.

After these days of investigation, Yang Lian found that most of the monarchs and ministers of the Han Kingdom were corrupt and womanizers, and it can be said that the entire Han Kingdom was permeated with this atmosphere, even compared to the Tang Dynasty. Yang Lian came this time, and he brought a certain amount of gold and silver, and got a lot of money from Liu Yanzhen and Fu Yanqing, which made him full of confidence and determined to make trouble in Kaifeng.

Yang Lian first went to visit Liu Chengyou.

In history, it was Liu Chengxun who died unexpectedly, and Liu Zhiyuan died of heartbreak. Before he died of illness, he didn't even make Liu Chengyou the crown prince - Liu Chengyou at that time was not even a prince.

Liu Chengyou was only eighteen years old at this time, and he was still a virtual age, when Yang Lian saw him, Liu Chengyou was playing with mud in the house, which gave Yang Lian a headache, could it be that the future of the Han Kingdom was going to be handed over to this person? No wonder the Han Kingdom died in just a few years, this Liu Chengyou has a lot of contributions.

When Liu Chengyou saw Yang Lian coming, he was serious, but no matter how serious he was, he couldn't change his virtue of playing with mud like a little kid. Yang Lian brought a lot of novelties, and Liu Chengyou was very interested. Before Yang Lian came, he did some homework and knew Liu Chengyou a little bit, which can be regarded as his favorite.

Most of these novelties were bought in the Hu Ren shop in Kaifeng, what colorful glass, half the size of a fist of night pearls, all made the fun Liu Chengyou stunned. Especially the pearl of the night, although it is in the daytime. is also shining, which makes Liu Chengyou love it.

Yang Lian also brought some wooden gadgets, I have to say that in this era, there are still strange people, and the things made are vivid, which makes Liu Chengyou very happy. Yang Lian talked a few words with Liu Chengyou, then stood up and said goodbye.

Liu Chengyou played by himself and asked Yang Lian to send him away. When Yang Lian took Lin Renzhao and others out of Liu Chengyou's house, Lin Renzhao was a little puzzled.

"Commander Yang, this Liu Chengyou is not even a prince. Why is this so to him? After walking out of the door for more than a dozen steps, Lin Renzhao couldn't help but ask.

Yang Lian smiled faintly and said, "Although this person has no behavior, after all, he is Liu Zhiyuan's second son, and it is not impossible to become a prince in the future." ”

Lin Renzhao shrugged, Yang Lian's statement made him feel wrong, but he couldn't think of any reason for Yang Lian, so he had to acquiesce to this statement.

After Yang Lian visited Liu Chengyou, he went to visit Liu Xin, the king of Cai, Su Fengji, the prime minister, and Shi Hongzhao, the envoy of the German army. This made the crown prince Liu Chengxun feel very strange, Yang Lian came to Kaifeng, didn't he come to visit relatives and friends? It's just that he knows Cai Wang Liu Xin, and he knows everyone else?

Let's talk about acquaintance. Liu Chengxun was a little confused, when did Yang Lian meet them, after all, most of these people were under his father's subordinates, and they were mostly in Taiyuan in the past. According to reason, it is impossible to know Yang Lian. If you don't know each other, these people have all accepted Yang Lian in the mansion, and there are even people such as Shi Hongzhao who feasted on Yang Lian in the mansion. Make a big fuss.

Liu Chengxun can't figure it out, but in fact, many people can't figure it out either. However, in this secret, there are still people who understand what Yang Lian's purpose is. More than ten days are fast and fast, but in the blink of an eye it is already late October, and when I get up in the morning, the sky is already gray, and I can see the cold dew on the trees that have almost lost their leaves.

In this kind of weather, many people have been wrapped in thick clothes, Chen Tie and Lin Renzhao, who have been in the south for a long time, are very unaccustomed to it, but Yang Lian is very diligent in exercising, and he understands the climate of the Yellow River line, so he can still cope with it.

Miss Fu has also been busy these days, but Yang Lian doesn't know what she's busy with.

At the beginning of November, Yang Lian received news that Liu Zhiyuan had attacked Weizhou and suffered extremely heavy losses. But Du Chongwei is like a stone in a latrine - smelly and hard, unmoved. The Han State continued to attack Weizhou, at this time, Liu Zhiyuan was already difficult to ride a tiger, if he could not take Weizhou, retreating at this time would undoubtedly give Du Chongwei time to breathe.

Therefore, Liu Zhiyuan could only continue to attack Weizhou, hoping to take Weizhou before the spring of the next year.

Just when Liu Zhiyuan was desperately attacking Weizhou, Yang Lian had made new progress in his relationship with Liu Chengyou after a month of hard work, Yang Lian took him to play juju and polo, if it wasn't for the fact that this season was not suitable for playing crickets, Yang Lian would definitely take him to fight crickets.

Yang Wei finally couldn't help it, he waited for a month, just to grind off Yang Lian's sharpness when he first came to Kaifeng, and at the same time, he thought that Yang Lian was far away, and the Son of Heaven of the Tang Dynasty would definitely urge him to complete the task of peace talks, but Yang Lian was unhurried, and he came to Kaifeng as if he was playing.

This is still the second, Yang Lian actually had a hot fight with many ministers in the court, and even had a good relationship with Liu Chengyou, who had not yet been crowned king, which surprised Yang Lian.

Although Yang Wei decided to take the initiative to negotiate with Yang Lian, in order to show his identity, he just asked Yang Lian to send a message to him and asked him to go to the officials in the palace. Yang Wei still overestimated himself, thinking that if he gave an order, Yang Lian would come immediately to negotiate with Dahan, but he miscalculated, Yang Lian got the news, just smiled faintly and told the person who came that he knew.

Then Yang Lian went out, but instead of going to the imperial city, he went to Liu Chengyou to play. In this regard, Yang Wei blew his beard angrily and glared, but there was no way, if this person was an official of the Han Dynasty, with his identity as a secretary of the ministry, he naturally had the right to impeach or even remove him, but Yang Lian was a Tang person, if he ignored him, he really had no choice.

Yang Lian took Liu Chengyou to play and eat well, which made Liu Chengyou feel that Yang Lian was the best person in the world. In addition to having fun, Liu Chengyou also likes to hunt, but unfortunately at this time, people will freeze to death, and animals are hiding, so they can't hunt at all.

"Let's go, I'll take you to play something new today!" Yang Lian brought a gadget today, this thing will be played by the old people and children in later generations, and I don't know if anyone is playing in this era? But at least Yang Lian didn't see it. So it took a while to do a few.

"What's good?" Liu Chengyou was very interested, and felt that Yang Lian was too hungry for him.

Yang Lian took out a few round things from his sleeve like a trick, and said, "This thing is called a spinning top." Yang Lian vaguely remembered that there was no such title at this time.

Sure enough, Liu Chengyou looked at the top with great interest and said, "Top? This name is so magical, Brother Yang, how do you play with this thing? Hurry up and teach me. ”

Yang Lian smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry. As he spoke, he took out another pole as long as his arm, and tied a strip of cloth to it, a bit like a horsewhip.

Liu Chengyou watched with wide eyes, and after Yang Lian took out the pole, he wrapped the strip of cloth around the top, wrapped it around and around it, and then put it on the ground.

"Look at it." Yang Lian smiled slightly, held the pole in his hand, and raised it suddenly, the cloth strip drove the spinning top, and in Liu Chengyou's surprised gaze, the spinning top turned on the ground. Although Liu Chengyou is greedy for fun, he has never played with the spinning top, and he can't help but be surprised to see the spinning top spinning steadily on the ground.

At this time, the spinning top spun for a moment, crumbling and about to fall, Liu Chengyou hurriedly stomped his feet and said, "Brother Yang, the spinning top is about to fall." ”

"Don't worry, see how I play!" Yang Lian said, waving the pole and slamming it on the top, the top jumped, as if it was about to fall to the ground, but it still turned steadily, Yang Lian whipped one whip after another, and whipped the top fiercely.

The harder you work, the faster the top spins, and the more stable it turns, Liu Chengyou looked at it, applauded and smiled: "It's really fun!" This novelty attracted Liu Chengyou.

Yang Lian whipped more than a dozen whips, and when he saw that the top was spinning steadily, he handed the pole to Liu Chengyou and said, "You can try it too." ”

"Howler!" Liu Chengyou took the pole and played with the spinning top according to Yang Lian's whipping method. Liu Chengyou played for the first time, the more he played, the more excited he became, and he felt that the attraction of the top was much stronger than that of Keju and polo.

When he was playing very excitedly, the housekeeper came to Liu Chengyou's side and said, "Son, Yang Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials sent someone to ask to see him." ”

"The secretary of the ministry?" Liu Chengyou was stunned, he ignored the government again, what did this Laoshizi's official secretary come to him for? He was confused and didn't know why.

"Yes, to be precise, the official department is still looking for Yang Gongzi." The butler said.

"What are you looking for Yang Gongzi to do? Didn't you see Brother Yang and I busy? No, no! Liu Chengyou looked impatient.

The housekeeper was stunned, but he knew his son-in-law's style of doing things, so he immediately had to give up his hand and retreat.

Yang Lian pretended to sigh and said, "Hey, it's a big deal now." ”

"What's the big deal?" Liu Chengyou wiped the sweat on his forehead, twitched the spinning top, and took the time to ask Yang Lian, very busy.

"This Yang Wei, but he is a popular man in front of the Son of Heaven, and he is also the official of the dynasty, so he can't afford to offend. Liu Gongzi ignored him, but be careful. Yang Lian kindly reminded.

Liu Chengyou snorted coldly when he heard this, and said, "It's just a dog, if he bothers me again, he must be good-looking." ”

Yang Lian hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Young Master Liu, Yang Wei is an important minister of the imperial court, and he must not do this." Since the secretary of the ministry has something to do with me, I might as well go and meet him. ”

Liu Chengyou is playing happily, so is he willing to let Yang Lian go? immediately grabbed Yang Lian and said, "Brother Yang, you can't go, I have prepared some fun things, waiting for you to play." With that, he put down the pole and dragged Yang Lian into the backyard. (To be continued.) )
