Chapter 85: Shifting Targets

Since Xu Xuanzhu became Liu Yu's wife, his temperament has changed a lot, others always think that General Xu, who is dominating on the battlefield, is a domineering existence at home, and Liu Yu had similar anxieties before marriage, but since the two made love in the wooden box in the deserted village, General Xu has started to be Mrs. Liu as a person, whether in front of or after people, she is a gentle little woman, and she thinks about Liu Yu everywhere.

Han Sheng's temptation was also in vain, in fact, with Han Sheng's understanding of Xu Xuanzhu, he also knew that she was born lonely and longed to have a family, but the composition of a happy family is very difficult, originally Xu Xuanzhu rejected this marriage, but for some reasons that even Han Sheng didn't know, Xu Xuanzhu's eyes were full of warmth when he looked at Liu Yu, this emotion is not something that can be cultivated in a dull life after marriage. Han Sheng had always wanted to ask clearly, but he felt that asking such a private matter would make him seem stingy, after all, his two granddaughters were also about to become the wives of the Liu family.

It was almost evening, Liu Yu and Xu Xuanzhu also decided to stay in the Han Mansion for the night, Han Sheng asked someone to prepare a room for the newlywed Yan'er couple, and even Lu Chu'er and other guards also arranged a room. Taking advantage of the fact that the sky was still bright, Liu Yu and Xu Xuanzhu went to the small courtyard to find the Han sisters, but they were pulled on a swing.

Han Xiaoyi and Han Xiaoting are still extremely friendly to Xu Xuanzhu, the eldest sister, especially in their home field, the two girls built a swing rope for Xu Xuan together, and the strength was not great, but it also made Xu Xuanzhu happy. Xu Xuanzhu has been accompanied by swords since he was a child, and what he lacks is a childlike happiness, and he is also very involved in playing at this time. Liu Yu was very tired, if it weren't for Han Sheng coming out with a large pile of calligraphy and paintings, he would have leaned against the stone table in the small courtyard and fell asleep looking at the warmth of his own woman.

"Brother Liu, I heard that you understand calligraphy and painting, take some out and show them to you."

Han Sheng unfolded the scrolls of calligraphy and painting, although it was not the handwriting of a famous historian, the author was also famous, and some of them were also copied on the top grade. It's a pity that Liu Yu's understanding of calligraphy and painting is limited to Wang Xizhi's thin gold body and the like, and the history is different, and these have never appeared. Understanding is also the same as not understanding. After casually flipping through some of them, Liu Yue was so excited that he had to tell the truth that he knew very little about calligraphy and painting.

"You have a unique style of painting, and I think you have a lot of research on calligraphy and painting." Han Sheng's face was a little narrow, and he didn't force it, but in fact, Liu Yu could also see that Han Sheng was looking for him to taste calligraphy and painting, but he was just looking for a reason to talk alone. Now Han Sheng goes to the chess building less often, mainly because Liu Yu is no longer an ordinary ordinary person, Han Sheng, the Minister of Intelligence, always has to avoid it, and it is difficult for the two to sit together and say something.

"The little daughter of the Xu family and Ting'er Yi'er are very harmonious, and they will get along harmoniously in the future, and you can enjoy the period." Han Sheng looked at the sisters playing in the afterglow of the sunset, and said in a tone as if emotional.

Liu Yue also felt warm when he saw this scene, in fact, the meaning of the dispute between the DPRK and China was just for no one to disturb the quiet and peaceful life of his family. Liu Yu thought for a while and said: "Tomorrow we will be considered a family, do you want to follow Yi'er and Ting'er, and change your name to Brother Han, you are grandpa?" ”

"Are you willing to suffer this?"

Liu Yu smiled and didn't go any further into this issue. He also felt that he was not used to the fact that he was suddenly going to change his words.

The two were silent for a while, and Han Sheng said: "The errand sent by the emperor this time seems to be completed, but in fact it is just the beginning, and it will continue in the future." ”

"Hmm." Liu Yu nodded.

The errand of hoeing and rape is just to find a Xu Han, although a big fish is caught in a net, but one or two big fish do not solve the problem, and hundreds of small fish must also try to enter the net. The old emperor still refused to give up.

Han Sheng said again: "This time you have made a lot of contributions, the emperor will ask for rewards for your merits, and you should be promoted again." ”

"I don't think that's necessary." Liu Yu said, "Actually, I didn't make much effort, and besides, it's good to be the right commander of the Imperial Forest Army who has nothing to do, I don't have to worry about it, and I don't have to be worried about political enemies, it's better for Brother Han to tell the emperor on my behalf, it's better to give something useful than to add an official to a knight, I want to make the family live a better life now." ”

Han Sheng smiled: "You are not greedy, this temperament is like you, I believe the emperor can understand it." It's just that...... Do you really think that no one cares about you? The emperor suddenly pardoned Zhao Guozhang this time, but he and the four princes both hated you for going to his house to raid the house. ”

Liu Yu nodded to show that he understood, and he was just acting on orders. Who would have thought that the old emperor would first copy the mansion of the abbot, and then give amnesty.

"The Nine Emperor Princes are now in the court, have you ever thought about him?" Han Sheng asked again.

Liu Yu couldn't help but be silent. Han Sheng was reminding him that Su Yan was just a fledgling, first for meritorious service on the battlefield, and then for meritorious service, being canonized as king meant that he would go deep into the imperial situation, and his rise would inevitably become the most priority enemy to get rid of in the eyes of several other crown prince contenders. Su Yan has little experience in officialdom, does not have a group of loyal staff, and does not have a strong backer behind him. The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty.

Since Liu Yu chose to help Su Yan up, he also had to plan for his future, and he could not let him die in the power struggle.

After Han Sheng's words were finished, he asked about Liu Yu's taste instead, so that he could tell the kitchen to do it.

"My mouth is not bad, and I can eat food that is warm and full." Liu Yudao.

Han Sheng went to the kitchen to order, and Liu Yu was pulled over by the Han sisters to swing together. Liu Yu doesn't like to swing around on the swing, and he is easy to get dizzy due to lack of sleep. acted as a rope swinger, he had a lot of strength, and directly swung Han Xiaoting more than two meters high, causing her to keep cheering.

After the family had dinner, Liu Yu and Xu Xuanzhu went to the wing room to rest. On the lamp, the sisters of the Han family personally came over with the quilt and mattress, and they had learned from Han Sheng that the wedding date was tomorrow, they were all a little ashamed, but they were also shy and cute, which made Liu Yu look happy. Originally, they were about to get married and meet to avoid taboos, but the family didn't have so many rules, and even the things that should have been done by the maids such as sending bedding were also done by their sisters.

Early in the morning of the second day, Liu Yu and his wife were going back to their homes, and at the same time they took the Han sisters back. Marrying a wife is grand, as for the concubine to be as low-key as possible, Han Sheng passed the noon meeting to witness the marriage of his two granddaughters, and the family was not ready to invite any more guests, just gathered around a table to eat a meal and drink some wine.

In the morning, Liu Yu wanted to enter the palace to deliver a calendar, and hurried to hurry up, wanting to go home before noon to prepare for today's wedding as soon as possible. Before he left the inner court, he saw Su Yan, walking in front with a listless look.

"Master?" Originally, Su Yan was still yawning, but when he saw Liu Yu, he was a little more energetic.

"What are you doing in the palace?"

"Oh, my father transferred me to the Liutai Yamen, and discussed politics with other imperial sisters and brothers, and after a morning discussion, I want to go back early and take a nap."

The Liutai Yamen is a cabinet institution, and the cabinet officials led by the left and right ministers discussed and approved the political affairs in the interior, but due to the successive collapse of the left and right ministers, the current Liutai Yamen has completely become a stage for princes and princesses.

"Tell me, what are you talking about?"

"Actually, there is nothing else, just to discuss who to promote to the right minister, and by the way, restore the left minister, a surname Li, it seems that Li Tingnian is the most likely, as for the detailed ...... I heard that the Four Emperor Sisters and the Four Emperor Brothers were arguing fiercely, so I fell asleep when I was bored, and when I woke up, it seemed that they still hadn't discussed the result. ”

Li Tingnian is Li Sha'er's father, and he was just released from prison yesterday. Li Zhongchun's subordinates have been away from officialdom for many years and have suffered a lot, so it is unlikely that he will directly inherit his father's position as prime minister.

Liu Yu really wanted to scold Su Yan for being heartless, he had already entered the core layer of power, and he actually slept when discussing politics!?

"What does the King of Chu mean?" Liu Yu asked.

"King Chu? The master is talking about my Seventh Emperor Brother, he ...... He didn't say anything, he sat there like me, fiddling with the chess pieces all the time, and I didn't listen to him today. ”

Liu Yuxin said that the seven princes could really calm down, but in the end, Liu Yu didn't understand whether he was ambitious or not. If it is really a carefree prince who does not want to pay attention to the affairs of the world, it is not too dangerous. I'm afraid that he can't bear it.

Liu Yu took out a folded piece of paper from his arms, which was a piece of music that he had written for Su Yan in advance.

"Look at this, go back and copy a copy, and say that you wrote it and played it to the emperor."

Su Yan took it curiously, and after reading it, he was shocked: "Master...... What do you mean by that? ”

"It's not interesting, now that you suddenly appear, you will definitely be hated by other people, and it is easy to use you as the first target. The only way now is to give them a more mocking target and divert their attention. Liu Yu explained, "You just said as above, just say that you often dream of your second emperor brother in your dreams at night, and then weep bitterly in front of the emperor, mention that your second emperor brother was good to you at the beginning, and then beg the emperor to recall your second emperor brother from the penal colony." ”

Su Yan was puzzled: "Master, this is ...... All right? ”

"If it doesn't work, let's try it first." Liu Yu didn't have a better way to think of this idea for the time being, and he was in a hurry to go home to prepare for the wedding banquet, and he didn't want to elaborate, "You can write a note according to your tone first, and show it to me when you write it, and I'll give you a reference again." You must make sure that you don't let the emperor doubt your intentions. ”

"Yes, master. But...... Where can I find you after I write it? ”

Liu Yu thought about it, and didn't know when he would have time to go to the chess building, so he said: "Go to my house, by the way, don't go today, if you want to go, wait for tomorrow, I'll wait for you at home." ”
