"No, Twelfth Young Master, this is the skill you taught us, it is a gift, Zhuo'er can't be the master." Zhao Zhuo'er's face waved his hand with a little panic.

Liu Yuzheng said: "Zhuo'er, you must know that the war between the border and the Turks in Ludao is endless, your brother can come back safely today, and tomorrow he may not be able to go out again, and it is uncertain when the strong man will go." Your father is sick and injured and can't do heavy work, do you want your mother to be sick from work? ”

Zhao Zhuo'er said with a resolute face: "Zhuo'er will help her mother." ”

"So I'm reluctant." Liu Yu smiled, grabbed Zhuo'er's hand again, and rubbed his small hand with his big hand, "Look at your little hands, they are a little rough, go back and find you some good skin care products for maintenance." Now seriously, talk to Brother Han about doing business. ”

"Little Brother Liu, let's say clearly, how much silver do you think I can use in exchange for the right amount of money, just speak. Although this business is not big, it has a future, and I will not let you and your little confidante suffer. ”

Liu Yu said: "If you want to buy out at one time, the price is high, it is to let the elder brother suffer a loss, the younger brother can't bear it, if the price is low, then my Zhuo'er sister will suffer, and the elder brother doesn't want to take advantage of others, right?" Let's do this, teach you the skills, and you will be responsible for all the costs, but in terms of profits, it will be divided into two percent with my Zhuo'er sister, so good? ”

"Brother Liu only said that it would be divided into two percent, but it made me a little embarrassed, and I will earn more in the future, so I will share more."

At that moment, Han Sheng wrote the contract, and Zhao Zhuoer signed it on behalf of the Zhao family, don't look at Zhao Zhuoer's background in a peasant family, and she studied in a private school for a few days when her father's family was wealthy before her illness, and she recognized a few words, and the small characters were also very beautiful.

After completing the signing of the contract, Zhao Zhuoer was worried that the big stone whose business was encroached upon by other merchants also fell, so he found a container for popcorn and went happily with a small basket.

When Zhao Zhuo'er's figure on the street disappeared, Liu Yue reluctantly withdrew his gaze and found that Han Sheng was looking at him.

"What a good girl." Han Sheng first praised it, and then asked, "Little Brother Liu gave the business to the beautiful woman like this, aren't you afraid that in the future, after a hundred years of the old marquis, he will be left with no food and clothing?" ”

"Don't worry about Mr. Han about this, if Brother Liu really has that day in the future, our Sui family will also recruit him into the door and treat him as a guest. If Brother Liu is willing, I still want to marry my sister to him. ”

Before Liu Yu could answer, someone grabbed Bai at the door. The three young sons entered the door with a high-spirited nature, and Sui Yi, who had just spoken, walked in the front, and was not polite, and drank the tea on the table. He put the scroll in his hand on the table, exhaled and said: "This spring day is warm, and it will be very hot after a few more steps, Brother Liu, can you show me, are these poems done well?" ”

Sui Yi, the word Shuda, is the eldest son of the Sui family, a merchant in the city, who does not have much knowledge, but likes to sing poetry. The other two, one is Li Mi, the third son of the Li family, the Marquis of Changping, and the other is Hu Xuan, the sixth son of Hu Chaozhong, the squire of the military department. Except for Sui Yi, the other two are all concubines without exception, and their families are not powerful, and because of the same illness, they are confidants with Liu Yu.

Liu Yu opened the scroll, it was densely packed with words, he was dizzy when he looked at it, and he couldn't help frowning: "Are you going to take the imperial examination to make a fuss?" ”

Li Mi found a chair and sat down, and said: "This morning we went to the poetry club, the triennial examination coincided with the biennial entry of the vassal king into Beijing, the poetry meeting was unprecedented, and the poetry meeting on the first day was the title of the lord of Huai Wang Min, and the scholars squeezed their heads to compose poems. Brother Sui was copying vigorously on the side, and his hands couldn't stop. ”

Sui Yi smiled shyly and said: "You also know that my little sister is so good, she is a big girl and she is embarrassed to join in the fun, so she bothers me as an elder brother." Today's Minjun Lord is writing poems to write about the world's current situation, those students are very capable, Brother Liu can give it a look, how is it? ”

Liu Yu realized that it was densely packed with poems, took a cursory look at it, and said with a smile: "At a glance, I know that Lu Dao is a group of children of noble families who are full of food and have nothing to do. ”

Sui Yiqi said: "How do you know? ”

Liu Yu sighed: "Those scholars from poor families, who are not studying hard in the big exam, who has the heart to participate in this." Besides, these poems are gorgeous, and they do their best to praise things, describing the world as if they were eating and drinking without worrying about their family's back kang. As everyone knows, there are frozen bones on this Zhumen wine and meat stinky road. ”

"Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road? Good poetry, good poetry. I've got to make a quick note of it. ”

Sui Yi picked up the cinnabar red pen on the table and wrote it on the paper, regardless of the ugly font.

Liu Yu smiled bitterly: "If you say just two sentences, you will be a poem?" ”

"When I don't go back to show my sister, she likes Brother Liu's masterpiece the most, and I don't know how many times I copy it every day." Sui Yi raised his head and smiled, "Let's go back and take you to meet my little sister, she admires you." I often blame me for not taking you home to sit. ”

Liu Yu refused: "No need, let's leave it to you to see." ”

It's not that Liu Yu doesn't hesitate to spend, the point is that Sui Yi's life is ugly, and it is expected that his sister will not be able to see where to go, otherwise he would not have to go out of the door like those daughters. On weekdays, Sui Yi never leaves his sister for three sentences, for fear that people will not know that he has a sister.

"Copied it, copied it. Brother Li and Brother Hu, let's take advantage of the lunch to go to the poetry club again, so that those scholars can also see my poetry skills. After speaking, he didn't care about the feelings of the poet himself, and hurriedly dragged Li Mi and Hu Xuan to fool people with Liu Yu's poems.

Sui Yi didn't beg Liu Yu to join in the fun, mainly because they also understood that Liu Yu, who was seriously ill a year ago, had become much more introverted, and would rather play chess and listen to music than move around more.

Seeing that the three of them were gone, Han Shengcai asked as if intentionally or unintentionally: "Lord Min has entered the capital, I don't know what Junior Brother Liu thinks of this matter?" ”

"Lord Min enters Beijing? I don't think so, but I'm sure the King of Huai must have made an excuse not to come. ”

"Oh?" Han Sheng was a little surprised, "The imperial court can announce that King Huai is not here, how does Little Brother Liu know?" ”

Han Sheng introduced a businessman, and Liu Yue didn't have too many scruples when he spoke: "It's obvious, the old emperor has suffered from hemoptysis for some time, and this disease can live for a year or two now, and this is probably the last time the emperor has summoned a vassal king to Beijing." King Huai has a special identity, and his daring to come to Chang'an is no different from sending him to death. ”

Huai King Su Yunyao is the eldest brother of the current emperor Su Yunyang, 22 years ago was the crown prince, the first emperor in order to clear the way for the prince's accession to the throne, once sent Su Yunyang and his brothers to the field to confine, but it is also this Su Yunyao, it is said that he is a master who only loves beauty and does not love the country, and he was stunned to play around when the emperor was dying, so the emperor passed the throne to the current emperor before his death.

Liu Yu didn't want to comment too much on the current situation, so he asked instead: "Brother, how did the two national players outside play the game of chess?" ”

Han Sheng replied, "Oh. It's in the middle game, but the winner has been decided, and I didn't have anything to look forward to. ”

………………

While speaking, a man staggered upstairs, plunged into the chess room, and fell to the ground. But it was Su Yan who left just now.

He took five taels of silver and left, and for some reason it was as if he had rolled a few times in a mud puddle, covered in mud, and still had wounds on his face.

"What's wrong with you?" Liu Yu frowned and looked at him, "You won't go out and fall into the pit, will you?" ”

Su Yan staggered to get up from the ground, crying and scolding his mother: "Those dogs, bullying people, aren't they just a slave in my imperial brother's mansion, and they actually punched and kicked me in front of the people all over the street, I ...... I don't want to live anymore. ”

After careful questioning, I learned that Su Yan took five taels of silver and wanted to buy a cricket that was optimistic about Lu, because he was too eager to hit the sedan chair of the servant of the third prince, and the servant of the third prince saw Su Yan, who was not as good as a chicken in distress, and beat him on the street. I guess I'm proud.

beat up the prince, although he is a down-and-out prince, it is enough to brag for a few days.

"Brother Liu, you can help me, as long as you can help me recover my identity, I will be a cow and a horse for you. I just can't get used to those bastard minions bullying me like this! ”

"You think I'm a god? Say you'll recover it? Liu Yu said impatiently.

"Twelfth young master, the master asked you to go back, saying that there is something important to discuss." A servant arrived at the door, and it was none other than Liu's subordinate.

Liu Yu came to this world and didn't say a few words to his father for more than a year, and he didn't understand why his father suddenly wanted to look for him.

Generally, only when the family meeting is announced, no one will pay attention to whether you go or not.

There is no more than him in the Hou Ye Mansion, and there is no less than him. He has always only been regarded as a transparent person. However, with Su Yan annoying here today, Liu Yu wished he had left earlier.

"Brother Liu, you can't go, if you don't think about it, I'll die here!" Su Yan saw that Liu Yu was leaving, so he said cruel words.

Liu Yue smiled disdainfully, he was willing to die, so he didn't have to be looked down upon.

Cowardice is Su Yan's biggest problem.

"You don't have to die, remember the pit you sold me just now, right? You go to the imperial mausoleum by yourself, kneel there, and if the emperor is gracious on 357 days, you will get what you want. ”

Su Yan blinked, slipped away and ran away, I don't know if he really went to kneel.

Han Sheng and Liu Yu walked out of the chess room together, on the big chessboard in the chess building, the chess game of the national player game was not over, Liu Yu looked up, this chess game was a little familiar, and suddenly remembered that he had mentioned it in a Go book in his previous life, it was a famous chess game in ancient times. Perfectly.

Although black has a large advantage at this time, white can still be turned alive, which is a good game.

"White can win."

Liu Yu just said casually before leaving the chess building, Han Sheng originally planned to go back to the house, but when he heard this, he stared at the chess game, frowning and couldn't see the way for a long time.
