Zhou Qi and others came to visit in person, and Guo Tu was not invited, Shi Xiong took out ten taels of silver and put it on the table.

Guo Tu said with a smile: "General Shi, contemptible people cultivate fields, plant mulberry trees, raise silkworms and weave cloth, and life is still passable." Give them to those in need. ”

Shi Xiong: "It's filial piety to the elderly, we came empty-handed, didn't prepare gifts for the elderly, as juniors, we have the obligation to respect the elderly." ”

Guo Tu still resigned, "General Shi, after you took office, one of the policies announced was to give the best gift to the elderly. ”

After Shi Xiong took office, he announced that if he was eighty years old, one of his children could be exempted from the burden of forced labor tax and used to serve the elderly.

Zhou Qi and several people said goodbye and left, all the way Zhou Qi sighed that the feng shui of Heyang was indifferent to Mingzhi, he came here for a short time, and came into contact with two characters who abandoned the glitz of the world and lived in seclusion in the idyllic mountains and forests.

After two rounds of written examinations and interviews, 32 people were selected to fill the vacancies of officials.

No one can stop the pace of time, and a month later, Zhou Qi and others will also leave. Shi Xiong and Liu Ye spent more than a month together, time was in a hurry, and it was time to separate.

Shi Xiong set up a banquet for Zhou Qi and his party to practice, and at this time, the county guard had already taken his family to Huayin.

At the banquet, Shi Xiong didn't say much, and he didn't say anything about wine. Zhou Qi and others were very interested in talking, after all, another feudal town had successfully solved the problem of official governance for the time being.

Shi Xiong behaved deeply at the banquet, and Li Nian took Shi Xiong's place to entertain the imperial court heroes. Li Nian drank too much and came to talk to Liu Ye.

"When I go back to Chang'an to see my father, you have to honor my father more. Daddy is old, and his children are not around. ”

The main charcoal hot pot of the banquet is steaming, and the willow leaves are fragrant and sweaty. Li Nian whispered to Liu Ye, and the ecstasy body fragrance came out from between Liu Ye's collar.

The aroma of ecstasy made Li Nian's mind dizzy, and he drank too much wine, why did Bao Chuan have a strange fragrance, and the willow leaves also had a strange fragrance?

Is it a coincidence? Is it a coincidence? Or do you drink high and hallucinate? Well, when the feast is over, take him to his own quarters, and interrogate him carefully. Li Nian doesn't drink alcohol in the future, he holds a teapot and drinks tea to relieve hangover.

After the banquet, Li Nian went to send Zhou Qi and Zhang Zhongqing back to rest. Before leaving, he instructed Liu Ye, "Liu Ye, you wait for me, I have something to bring to my father, you can bring it back for me." ”

Shi Xiong beckoned Liu Ye to go back to the room to rest, and Liu Ye: "Master Li asked me to wait for him for a while." He has something to give to the Prime Minister. ”

Shi Xiong stayed with Liu Ye and waited for Li Nian to come back. Li Nian settled the two happy adults and saw that Shi Xiong was also there.

"General Shi, I'll take Liu Ye back to my room." Li Nian said something very ordinary, and Shi Xiong blocked him.

"I still have something to discuss with Liu Ye, I'm afraid it won't work." Shi Xiong didn't leave any room for Li Nian.

Li Nian looked at Liu Ye, asked for his opinion, and watched him follow. Liu Ye: "General Shi, you go back first." I'll go back when I'm done with my stuff. ”

SHI Xiong; "I'll be with you."

Li Nian is not good at insisting, "Forget it." You can't go back to Chang'an for the time being, and it's not a big deal. I'll let the post house deliver the same. Rest early. ”

Liu Ye and Shi Xiong returned to the room, and Li Nian stood in place, looking at the slender and elegant figure for a long time. It's her? Not her?

The guards kept an eye on the general's whereabouts, and when they saw Shi Xiong returning, they hurriedly brought tea, pastries, and bath water.

Willow leaves bathe behind a screen. Shi Xiong was reading a book in front of the table, although he didn't read a few words, the book was always in his hand. The way the two get along with each other is the same as before, and it has not changed because of the exposure of Liu Ye's identity. Number Seven

But Shi Xiong's heart was difficult to calm down after all, just like now, the book was upside down in his hand, and he didn't realize it.

The willow leaves were packed up and turned out from behind the screen. Shi Xiong held the book in his hand and stared at the person in front of him intently. He has bright eyes and bright teeth, and his hair falls over his shoulders, and he is incredibly beautiful.

He is leaving tomorrow, will there be days of getting along day and night in the future? Shi Xiong has already begun to miss. Although at the moment the other party is standing in front of him.

Liu Ye picked up the tea on the table, and Shi Xiong's gaze moved with the snow-white Hao's wrist and landed on the upside-down book in his hand. Shi Xiong hurriedly threw down the book and stood up.

"I'm thinking about a strange guy I met today." Shi Xiong lowered his eyes to avoid Liu Ye's gaze.

His face was flushed, and his secret thoughts should not be seen through by the person in front of him.

Liu Ye handed Shi Xiong a cup of tea, and said leisurely: "General, the subordinates are reluctant, and when they leave the general's side, the subordinates are sad." The comradeship of life and death is remembered by subordinates. ”

Shi Xiong's deep eyebrows stared at the willow leaves, "Willow leaves, willow leaves." ”

Except for calling his name, there was no way to say the thousand words in his heart. He marries a family and learns the truth that troubles him.

When the truth comes, everything can't start anew. There is no way to restore the mountains and rivers, and the villages are not visible.

"Liu Ye, if one day, you are tired of officialdom, you are welcome to come back at any time."

Shi Xiong said in his heart: Liu Ye If one day, you think of me, you

If you want to come to me, I am willing to leave everything behind and wander the world with you.

"General, a word is a certainty. I have no worries about my future. ”

Shi Xiong: "Are you familiar with Li Nian?" ”

Liu Ye: "When I was in Chang'an, I went to visit the Prime Minister, and Brother Li was a very good person to get along with. ”

I see. Although Li Nian is the son of the prime minister, he is low-key and never takes the role of the prime minister's son. Whether it is in Hedong Domain or Heyang Domain, the reputation is very good.

Shi Xiong's tone was full of praise, "Liu Ye, I met a strange person today, who is more unusual than the county guard. I don't like fame and fortune, I am indifferent to Mingzhi, and I am a real master. ”

Liu Ye smiled: "Yes, a real master." Of course he knew such a master.

"You've seen it too." Shi Xiong looked at Liu Ye with deep sympathy.

"I've seen it, in the capital." Liu Ye said firmly.

SHI Xiong; In his daily life, the idyllic life is full of poetry. If I spend a long time with him, I feel that I will be infected by him, and I will join the hermit pastoral family. ”

Liu Ye: "In this world, there are very few people who are not burdened by fame and fortune, and who are indifferent and noble by nature. ”

Shi Xiong urged him to go to bed because Liu Ye was going to leave tomorrow morning. Liu Ye knew that Shi Xiong was reluctant to leave by himself, so he chatted with Shi Xiong, and the two sat until dawn.

Shi Xiong took care of the package for the willow leaves with his own hands, and filled the package with two hundred taels of silver. Before going out, Shi Xiong still couldn't control his mind, hugged him into his arms, and let go of him for a long time.

After breakfast, Zhou Qi led everyone to leave Heyang Town. Shi Xiong led his men and did not return to the city until the group was far away and difficult to find.
