Siqinghai is a huge inland sea, which is connected to Yaodong in the north, Yanbei Plain in the west, and Xuhuai in the southeast.

Two hundred years ago, the barbarians of Guanbei went south from Yushan, and the barbarians of Yaodong crossed the Siqing Sea and marched westward, all the way to the bank of the Guanluo River.

Emperor Qingyuan issued a paper to open up the wasteland, and thousands of official and civilian warriors formed a wasteland opening team to kill the hinterland of the barbarians along the route of the barbarian invasion.

After the pacification of the barbarians, the Siqing Sea became a communication artery between Yaodong and Middle-earth, and the Siqing Sea Army often patrolled to protect passing merchant and passenger ships. Wei Zeng and his entourage came to the west bank of Siqing Sea.

"Wei Zeng, my mother's tomb is near Siqinghai, I want to pay homage to my mother. Although I haven't seen her since I was born, I've always wanted to know what it's like to be loved by my mother since I was a child. Wen Di changed his smile when he arrived at Si Qinghai, and said with sadness on his face.

"Actually, I also want to go to worship my aunt, anyway, I'm not in a hurry to go to Yaodong, I'll go with you." Wei Zeng replied.

"Are you going to come with me, that's great, I think mom will be happy to know about it underground." Wen Di said with a slight smile.

"Let's hurry up, it looks like it's going to rain, and if it's dark and we can't find a place to stay, we'll be in trouble." Wei Zeng looked at the sky and said.

"Don't worry, my mother's grave is not far from here, next to the old home of my father and mother. Although the house is a little dilapidated, it is still okay to shelter from the wind and rain. After Wen Di finished speaking, he ran forward with Wei Zeng and Wei Zhen.

Towards evening, the three of them arrived at a clearing by the sea, where a lonely grave stood facing the sea of Siqing.

Dad said that before leaving, Mom said that she wanted to keep looking at Siqinghai and wanted to see Dad fishing in Siqinghai all the time. So my father put my mother's grave on the surface. But my father was very sad after my mother's death, so he left here and only came back once a year on my mother's death day. Mom's wish still didn't come true. But my father is also for me, he wants me to see more of the world and learn more skills, and he doesn't want me to be an uninformed country woman, and I know this. Wendi sighed faintly.

"Uncle Liu is indeed very good to you, you are not responsible for the trust of Uncle Liu to become a generation of chivalrous women. Parents all over the world hope that their sons will become Chan and their daughters will become phoenixes, and you are now the pride of Uncle Liu. Wei Zeng said.

"You're saying nice things again, but I'm pretty happy to hear it, hee-hee. I also know that I am a bit willful and have caused a lot of trouble for my father. But now that I'm older, I know more or less about my father's hardships over the years, and I will honor my father well in the future. Wendy said.

"Sister Wendi, you see there are ashes here, and there are still a few plates of tribute, someone should arrive first." Wei Zhen said when he saw the scene in front of the tomb.

"Really? No one will come back except me and Dad, and it seems that Dad has arrived. Let's pay homage to Mom before we go to Daddy. I haven't seen my dad in months. Wendy said.

Wendy busied himself at his mother's grave before getting up and running to a nearby hut. Wei Zeng and Wei Zhen also bowed in front of the tomb and followed Wen Di towards the house.

Wen Di rushed into the house and saw Liu Hexin, who was sitting on a chair thinking about something.

Liu Hexin came back to his senses when he saw Wen Di come in, and said with a gentle smile on his face: "Wen Di, you are here too." I'd like someone to bring you a message. It seems that our father and daughter are also of the same mind, and they have avoided those troubles, so I will tell you directly. ”

"Daddy, tell me anything. I'm just listening here, don't worry, I'll do whatever you want me to do. Wendy said.

"Daddy would be willing to let you do anything. If you look at the scenery of Si Ching Hai, it is not bad to spend your old age here in the future. This house has not been cleaned up for more than ten years, and it has been broken like this, and it seems that it will have to be cleaned up in the future. Liu Hexin said.

"Now there are dark clouds and strong winds, and I don't see any beauty, but it would be nice if the sky cleared. It's time for this house to be mended. Daddy, are you going to hide here? Don't worry, I'll come over to accompany you later. Wendy replied.

"You come to accompany me, and bring a few grandchildren, that's really family fun. What more could you ask for in such a husband? Liu Hexin said with a smile.

"Dad, isn't it too early to mention grandchildren? I'm going to fight with a sword and do a lot of chivalry. Wen Di said with a red face.

"Is it early? I can't see it too soon! Behind that is Master Wei's nephew. Besides, with children, why can't you be chivalrous. I've been with you for almost 20 years, don't you still walk the rivers and lakes and do chivalrous deeds. Liu Hexin said with a smile.

"Dad, what are you talking about, I'm ignoring you, huh." Wendy pouted and turned his face over.

"I'm not wrong, that's exactly what happened! But before I go into seclusion, I'm going to go to Gangnam. Do you remember Ke Zhengwei, the governor of Jiangnan, now he is becoming more and more disagreeable. It was the father's fault for saving him back then. I will go to Jiangnan to persuade him, if he doesn't listen, I will directly get rid of him, and also remove a scourge for the people of Jiangnan. When the matter of Jiangnan is over, there is really nothing to worry about as a father. Liu Hexin said.

"Ke Zhengwei? Is it the little official that my father saved in Jiangnan back then? He is now the governor of Jiangnan, and this promotion is really fast. At the beginning, he was not full of enthusiasm and wanted to serve the country, but also said that he should be the master of the people for the officials, and the world would be a clear tomorrow. Didn't you still praise him at the beginning, but what happened to him now? Wendy asked.

"This person will always change, especially those who have power in their hands, and will do whatever it takes for themselves. In the past, Ke Zhengwei was only harsh, and he did his best to treat the people under his rule. But he's not the same now. In the past three years, he has gone from a county official to a governor, but he has not relied on some actions that hurt nature and reason.

"A few years ago, there was a famine in the south of the Yangtze River, and there were many hungry people making trouble, Ke Zhengwei not only did not want to try to help the victims, but colluded with large households to force rebellion, and then sent troops to kill no one left.

In this way, Ke Zhengwei and several big families in the south of the Yangtze River were rewarded by the imperial court and became capable ministers to protect the country. Since then, Ke Zhengwei has intensified his exploitation of the people, recruited private soldiers, and used bloody means whenever there is resistance. The people of Jiangnan dare not speak out, but Ke Zhengwei has risen all the way because of this. Liu Hexin said.

"Ke Zhengwei has degenerated like this, in vain I thought he was still a loyal man. Does the imperial court not care about a power-grabber like him? Such a wicked person was not punished, but was promoted, and the court was too dark. Wendy said angrily.

"In recent years, the rebellion in Kansai has not been quelled, and the hungry people in various places have continued to rise up, and the imperial court has long been full of soldiers. When encountering Ke Zhengwei like this, the 'capable ministers' court who beheaded thousands or even tens of thousands of people at every turn naturally had to be reused. Instead of showing compassion for the people, the court specialized in murder, believing that by force it could bring the people to their knees. Such a court naturally has a 'loyal minister' like Ke Zhengwei.

Now that the grievances of the people in Jiangnan have boiled, it is just that no one dares to be the first to attack because of Ke Zhengwei's murderous reputation. At the beginning, it was for his father who saved Ke Zhengwei's life, thinking that he had saved a good official who was dedicated to the people, but unexpectedly, this person eventually became a great traitor. For my father, I want to go to Jiangnan this time, but I want to do this, otherwise I won't have the heart to spend my life in my old age. Liu Hexin said.

"Father, I also want to go to Jiangnan with you, you are going to kill the governor of Jiangnan this time, it is also very dangerous to think about it, I can help if I go. But I promised Wei Zeng to take him to Yaodong, which is still a little difficult to do. Wendy said.

"If there's anything unpleasant, you can go to Yaodong. The governor of Jiangnan is taken seriously, but I don't care about it. I'll be here when I'm done, and I'll wait for you to come back. As long as you let your father hug your grandson as soon as possible, your father will be very happy. Liu Hexin said with a smile.

"Dad, you said this again, I ignored you." Wen Di's face turned red again when he heard this, and when he saw that Wei Zeng and Weizhen had already arrived in front of the room, he complained to Liu Hexin: "Dad, you really make people listen to these words, are you ashamed." ”

"There are no outsiders anyway, it's okay. Senior nephew Wei, it's going to rain when it's windy outside, so you better come in. Liu Hexin called Wei Zeng and Weizhen in.

It was stormy that night, but there was a peaceful scene in this small house by the sea, Wen Di and Weizhen prepared a simple but delicious meal, and Liu Hexin asked Wei Zeng to take out the good wine that had been buried for many years from the courtyard. A few people ate in this hut and chatted about their recent experiences.

The wind and rain cleared the next day, and Liu Hexin glanced at his wife's grave and went south. Wen Di made an appointment with his father to return here to see him after Yaodong's trip was over.

Wei Zeng saw that Wen Di was a little sad after saying goodbye to Liu Hexin, so he comforted: "Wen Di, Uncle Liu's trip to Jiangnan should end soon." Liu Shibo's martial arts are strong, and there are few people in the world who can hurt him, and he will definitely be safe and sound this time. When this trip to Yaodong is over, I will come with you again, and you don't have to be so sad now. ”

"I'm not sad about separation, and I'm not worried about my father's safety. The children of the rivers and lakes are often the case, and the father is not afraid of any danger if he has good martial arts. I really feel that my father is getting old this time, and I found that his hair is so much gray this time. In the past, he would talk a lot after drinking, but it was often some bold words, like last night.

"My father has been taking me to walk the rivers and lakes, and now my father wants to go into hiding, it seems that my father is really tired. I am no longer the ignorant child I used to be, and I will definitely honor my father well in the future. As my father did to me before, I will do to my father in the future. Si Qinghai is still very beautiful when it calms down. Wen Di looked at Si Qinghai, who was not alarmed by the first sunny day after the rain and the water waves.

"Wendi, you're really a little different from before." Wei Zeng looked at Wen Di's slightly melancholy face and said.

"What's different about me? Is it pretty, or ugly. It looks like it's getting prettier, don't look straight at it. Hee-hee. Well, it's better to hurry. Wen Di said with a smile, and then rode forward.

"People are always changing, some for the better, some for the worse. Who knows? Wei Zeng sighed and said.

"I don't know how others are doing, but I know that Brother Wei is definitely getting better and better." Wei Zhen said.

"Really? I can't say for sure. But if you say that, then I'm going to do my best to get better. “
