The water flowed quietly, and Liu Fa finally walked to the door of the house, Liu Fa looked at this strange door, a little distracted, is this still the same home, maybe since he walked out, everything has changed!

I'm back!

Liu Fa gently opened the door, the vermilion gate was full of new ideas, and the big tree in the courtyard had already grown outside the wall, familiar and unfamiliar.

Han Ju quietly looked at Liu Fa's back, and somehow, a trace of sadness suddenly appeared in his heart.

The yard was empty, and although no one lived in it, it still looked quite clean, and the furnishings in the yard had not changed, as if nothing had happened.

"Let's go, let's get out!"

Liu Fa didn't go into the back room, but just stood outside for a long time, hesitating for a long time.

"Who?"

Just as Liu Fa was about to leave, there was a sudden sound of the door opening, and before Liu Fa could answer, Han Ju's hand was already on the hilt.

"Hmm, is there really anyone?"

The door was finally opened, and a man dressed as a farmer strode in, and approached the two of them with a dim lampstand.

"Long time no see, Brother Li Wei!"

Liu Fa saw that person clearly at a glance, it was his friend who went to Beijing with him to take the exam, Li Wei!

"Willow ...... Liufa? ”

The lampstand in Li Wei's hand almost fell to the ground, he didn't expect it, he really didn't expect it, he could still see Liu Fa!

"Haha...... It's really you, good boy, I didn't expect you to come back, Brother Liu! ”

Li Wei saw that it was really Liu Fa, and he was very happy in his heart, for several years, Liu Fa had no news, Li Wei thought that Liu Fa died outside, although Li Wei didn't know why Liu Fa was in trouble at that time, but he knew that Liu Fa's trouble must be not small, how could he not be surprised to see Liu Fa alive today.

"Hehe, I haven't seen you for a few years, but it's okay!"

Liu Fa gestured to Han Ju, signaling Han Ju not to move, and then walked over and patted Li Wei on the shoulder, and found a place to sit on the ground with him.

"It's okay, I married my mother-in-law, and the baby is not small, haha, I was worried about you at the beginning, but I didn't expect your kid to be hard enough to survive!"

Liu Fa smiled slightly, didn't say anything, just chatted with Li Wei, and before he knew it, it was late at night.

"By the way, I ...... Where is the stepfather buried? ”

After talking for a long time, the two of them finally fell silent, there is no need to mention the past, Liu Fa came here this time, and it was precisely to pay tribute to his deceased father, and after a long time, he raised this question with difficulty!

"In Xiaohou Mountain, I'll take you tomorrow, it's late today."

Li Wei yawned, looked at Liu Fan, smiled apologetically, put on sackcloth, he was already a farmer, he had to work, in order to make a living, he still had a wife and children, and parents, and he always had to live.

"Yes, it's so late, it's bothering, unconsciously, it's so late, ha, go back quickly!"

Liu Fa saw that Li Wei was very tired, and he was also a little ashamed in his heart, after all, he was different from Li Wei.

"Okay, let's go, go to me, although this place is cleaned, but it has always been deserted for a long time, and there is no popularity!"

The oil lamp in Li Wei's hand was also a little dim, the lamp oil was about to burn out, but the night was getting deeper and deeper!

"It's okay, go back quickly, I can't say that my mother-in-law is in a hurry, haha!"

Liu Fa laughed, and then sent Li Wei out.

"......"

The flint struck, and Liu Fa finally entered the familiar room again, and he still remembered the dream he had in this room!

"Is this it?"

Liu Fa was a little distracted, is his stepfather buried under this land?

He followed Li Wei to climb a hillside, and suddenly his knees were a little weak, as if he was about to kneel unconsciously, here, his young days are buried!

Unconsciously, Liu Fa's heart was a little sour, he knelt down silently, looking at the tombstone standing on the grave, his heart was full of complexity!

The tomb of the deceased father Liu Zhen!

The stele is very gorgeous, and the tomb is also quite elegantly decorated, but in Liu Fa's opinion, it is out of place, Liu Zhen has never been a particular person!

Li Wei didn't know what to say, he just knelt silently, after all, he was also watched by Liu Zhen, and at the same time, Han Ju also knelt, Liu Fa knelt, he had no reason not to kneel, he was just a shadow.

"Let's go!"

After being silent for a long time, Liu Fa finally stood up, he said two words lightly, and then strode towards the bottom of the mountain.

The living steal life, and the dead are gone!

Liu Fa's heart is full of melancholy, Zhongyuan Festival, this is the carnival of the dead, but it is the sadness of countless living people, can go back to Shangyuan, take another look at Liu Zhen, Liu Fa is already satisfied, he went north, just to fulfill one of his dreams.

Han Ju saw that Liu Fa's back was a little lonely, scratched his head, and followed Liu Fa down, and not long after they walked out, another group of people slowly came here.

A man and a woman, followed by a group of servants, men and women, old and young, they were all dressed in plain white without exception, and the man at the head looked very young, just looking at the face, there was a feeling of not being angry and arrogant, and he was already a little official.

"Husband, is my father-in-law buried here?"

The woman took the man's hand, and seeing that her husband's face was a little sad, she lowered her voice and held the man's hand tightly.

"Well, concubine, my father is ...... Yes, there is! ”

The man suddenly raised his head, looked at the position of Xiaohoushan, and then let go of the woman's hand, and strode forward, he hasn't been here for a long time, it's been a long time, since the Liu family was broken, he has hardly come back, people go to the empty building, what's the point of coming back, more than a year of hard work, he is already in a high position, and he is no longer the mud leg he used to be. He is Liu Lian!

"Hey, has anyone been here?"

Liu Lian walked closer, and saw that the tomb on the mountain was cleaned very cleanly, it seemed that someone had already come, he frowned, didn't say anything, almost at the first time, he decided that this must be the old man in the village still remembered Liu Zhen, so he came to worship, almost two years, he has never heard of Liu Fa, Shaowu Hengan has never told him about his eldest brother, he has also sent people to investigate, but it is like looking for a needle in a haystack, there is no news!

Liu Fan didn't see Liu Lian, and he and Liu Lian were only half a step apart, and it was because of this half step that they missed the opportunity to meet again.

"Where are you going next?"

After going down the mountain, Li Wei obviously saw that Liu Fa was in a low mood, so he immediately glanced at the cold move beside him, and sighed again and asked.

"I want to go to the Imperial Capital to have a look!"

Liu Fa suddenly began to miss him like crazy, the emperor in his dream, the emotions he had been suppressing, he seemed to be able to feel the breath of that person, time flies, has that person ever been okay?

He has never forgotten Yan Ning, he just keeps himself busy, he doesn't think about her, he still remembers his promise, but he doesn't know if Yan Ning is married now?

Ruiyuan, Yanjia Courtyard!

"Miss......"

Hua Qiao looked at her own lady in front of the dressing mirror, the indescribable pain in her heart, she knew that Yan Ning had never forgotten Liu Fa from beginning to end, she believed that she would definitely come back and make people haggard for Yixiao!

Since ancient times, beauties are like famous generals, and they are not allowed to see white heads in the world, Yan Ning is already in the age of Jilu, and if she doesn't get married, she will cause gossip, Yan Gongdao has also repeatedly talked about this matter, and the result is that she will break up unhappily, Yan Ning will always come to live in Ruiyuan, and there are a lot of worries, but it is not a way to drag it out like this, it is still the people of the Yan family who lose it!

"Miss, Young Master Liu is really good, and he is still Young Master Liu's younger brother!"

Seeing Yan Ning sitting there for a long time, never saying a word, Hua Qiao finally couldn't help but speak, saying that after entering the Yan family from Liu Jian once, Yan Gongdao was quite satisfied with Liu Lian, a talent, outstanding, and Liu Lian had never promised a marriage contract, which made Yan Gongdao more concerned, and Yan Shaobing and Liu Lian came very close, now Shaowu Heng'an is on the throne, Liu Lian's career is very good, if the Yan family and the Liu family get married, it will really be all over the field in the future.

"What nonsense, get out!"

Yan Ning looked at herself in the mirror, slightly distracted, until Hua Qiao woke up again, and when she heard Hua Qiao's persuasion, she immediately frowned again, she was extremely stubborn, naturally she still admitted death, and she refused to give up until Liu Fa.

"Yes!"

Painting Qiao is just a maid after all, she saw that Yan Ning was unhappy, and then pouted, and quietly retreated, the sky in Ruiyuan is very small, so small that there are only some birds trapped in this garden, as if this is also a cage, Yan Ning looked at the sky outside, her heart was gloomy, if it goes on like this, it is not a way after all!

"Ruiyuan!"

Liu Fa sat on the horse, and finally walked to the place where he thought about it, he was once here, chased and killed, and here, he was rescued, but the person he saved was saved by him back then, fate was determined, but God made a joke with him when he gave him this fate.

One is a member of the court, and the other is a rebellion of the court, what kind of creation is this?

He sighed, after all, he didn't approach Ruiyuan, looking at the big words on the door, his expression was slightly trance-like, it's just a piece of the past, the past will eventually pass, he laughed at himself, maybe Yan Ning is already married to a wife, and he is already living in the courtyard.

"Let's go, accompany me to Shoushan!"

Liu Fa took one last look at the gate, and then strode away, but he didn't look at it anymore, at this moment, the door of Ruiyuan suddenly opened, Liu Fa was stunned, and he also heard the sound of the door opening, and involuntarily turned his head and glanced at the person, who was a little distracted!

A woman came out of it, her face was full of depression, when she walked out of the door step by step, she suddenly heard a few snorting sounds, she couldn't help frowning, she just raised her head, but she was stupid......

Dijing, Qingshifang, Liufu!

Compared with the south of the city, Liu Lian's mansion is a lot quieter, without the noise of traffic and the noise of people coming and going. The street is not spacious, paved with bluestone, and is lined with high-walled compounds on both sides of the wall, where the trees and bamboos planted by the families grow luxuriantly, sticking out of the branches and leaves, and the shadows cover most of the street.

"Husband, why have you been sullen lately?"

Liu Jian sat in the pavilion, his expression was a little depressed, since Shaowu Heng'an entered the East Palace, he had hardly smiled, more than a year, he has gone from an ordinary scholar to now, he has become a member of the court above 10,000 people, although he is young, but he is also extraordinarily important.

Yan Shaobing also told him several times, wanting to marry Yan Ning to him, even Shaowu Heng'an, there is such a meaning, Liu Lian is also very conflicted in his heart, he and Concubine Yun are together, and they have been working hard for most of the year, but Concubine Yun has never had any signs of pregnancy, there are three unfilial pieties, and there is no queen, Liu Lian does not want to lose Concubine Yun, but Yan Shaobing's kindness, he is also difficult to refuse.

Since Concubine Yun entered the mansion, she doesn't want any name, she knows that now Liu Lian is different from the past, if she lets people know her background, I'm afraid it will only make people laugh, so she would rather have wronged herself than wronged Liu Lian.

"Hehe, it's okay, come, stroke the piano for me, I want to listen to the piano!"

Liu Jian smiled slightly, he had already seen Concubine Yun standing beside him, he stretched out his hand to hold Concubine Yun and let her sit beside him, but he closed his eyes slightly.

"Zheng ......"

Elegant music played from between Concubine Yun's fingers, and before she knew it, Liu Lian had fallen asleep!

"Alas!"

Concubine Yun sighed lonely, looked at Liu Lian, who frowned very tightly, put down the piano in her hand, and then quietly walked to Liu Lian's side, stretched out her soft wattle, and gently relaxed her brows for Liu Lian.

Gradually, Liu Lian's eyebrows finally calmed down and stopped wrinkling, at this time Concubine Yun sighed, she knew everything, she was a smart woman, every day when Yan Shaobing came, more or less, she would mention two sentences, with her temperament, how could she not understand Yan Shaobing's meaning.

She lowered her head, looked at her flat lower abdomen, smiled bitterly, put on a wide thin coat for Liu Lian, and then sat there quietly, looking at Liu Lian, she was a little stupid.

No matter how hot the fight is in the southwest and how chaotic it is in the northwest, but in the imperial capital, it has always been a prosperous scene, and the turmoil of the government and the opposition has no impact on the people of the imperial capital at all, it is just a topic of idle talk after tea and dinner!

It's just in the court, but everyone is in danger, since Shaowu Hengyong committed suicide, the government and the opposition are in turmoil, a large number of officials dismounted, the highest is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and also Shaowu Hengyong's teacher, for the rebellious, Shaowu Qing will never be soft, not to mention, when the prince of the court, there are always some people to be martyred!

Originally, everyone thought that the emperor was dead, but they didn't expect that in the end, it was only the prince who died, and countless people who accompanied the prince to the funeral.

That day, Shao Wuqing sent people to hope that he would come to support and make a choice, but he was slow to move, and he had been sick long before the incident, and after a few days of hard work, Great Xia had undergone almost earth-shaking changes.

People are old and fine, Yan Gongdao has been an official for a lifetime, he sees it very openly, but he has never made a correct choice, because he has not made a choice, so he can't sit still now, sometimes, not choosing is the best choice, sometimes, not choosing means confrontation, he regrets it a little, he missed an opportunity to stand in line.

"Shaobing, what about Ning'er, did you go to Ruiyuan again?"

In the Yan Mansion, the two of them sat in the hall for a long time, and the father and son were like strangers, never saying a word, until Yan Gongdao cleared his throat and swallowed a sip of tea, and then he spoke.

Yan Shaobing's eyes were a little complicated, he looked at his father and nodded slightly, their family is all stubborn, from his sister to his father.

Shao Wuyu came to Yanfu that night, it was originally a good opportunity, and he also tried his best to dissuade Yan Gongdao, but Yan Gongdao was indecisive and never made up his mind, and now, he has been excluded from that circle.

"Yes, Ning'er is still in Ruiyuan, everything is fine, my father can rest assured!"

Yan Gongdao shook his head, stood up, paced for a long time, and finally said, "Have you ever mentioned Ning'er to that Liu Lian again?" ”

Hearing Yan Gongdao ask, Yan Shaobing also had a big head, this kind of thing is not on his lips all day long, not to mention, there is also a Yun Concubine next to Liu Lian, the two of them are like immortals, how can he say it.

"I have talked about this, but Brother Liu didn't say anything, it's a little intriguing......"

"In this way, you will go a few more times, Yan's house, cough ...... Yan Family ......"

Yan Gongdao looked at the plaque in the hall, frowned slightly, and then strode out, Yan Shaobing didn't say a word, bowed his body, looked at Yan Gongdao's back, and his nose was a little sour.

Perhaps, he is really old!

After Liu Lian woke up, he found that Concubine Yun was dozing off on the side, looking at the cloak on his body, he couldn't help but feel a little warm in his heart, seeing that Concubine Yun was always guarding his side, Liu Lian stroked her hair, put on a cloak for her, and then quietly walked out of the bluestone workshop.

For more than a year, he can be said to have been prosperous in official fortune, and when he thinks of the past year, he can't help but smile a little bitterly. Although he is a fictitious civil official, this position is very promising, at least in the eyes of others, it is a very terrifying thing that he can sit in his current position in just a few months.

As for how popular Liu Chuan can be in a few years, that is something that everyone is considering, and Liu Chuan feels that the most important thing he should consider now is not to climb up, but how to use this once-in-a-lifetime official position to make the greatest achievements.

looked around, only to find that he had crossed the Tianma Bridge, and Liu Lian couldn't cry or laugh. His mansion is in Qingshifang, in the south of Liuchi, which should have been the closest to Dongcheng, but he unconsciously walked to Qingwei City in the south, and then crossed the Tianma Bridge, and has reached the north of Liuchi, and he has to go back to his mansion to make a big circle.

Fortunately, he was not impatient, and he walked along the willow pond with the reins. Looking at the prosperity of the imperial capital, the willow pond hovers like an ice dragon, and the depression in Liu Lian's heart is inevitably much less.
