Knowing that my niece will ask, and I also know that most of my niece will ask so bluntly, this is my niece's wholehearted trust and dependence on me.

When he was a child, when he watched his widowed mother and eldest sister being bullied by his clansmen and neighbors, he thought that if Liu's father was still alive, their orphans and widows would have something to rely on.

Being able to protect my niece now, and being looked at by my niece's full trust, is more pleasing than when I was a child, longing for a biological father to rely on.

Liu Wensu lowered his eyes and looked at Liu Chenxing.

As a man, his eyelashes are slender and thick, longer than ordinary women, the moonlight shines on his face, so that the eyelashes cast a shallow light and shadow, I don't know that the moonlight is like water and cool, and it seems to be as cold as the moonlight, but his eyes have a warm smile, with a tolerant and doting look, he slowly said: "During your return to your hometown, I had several encounters with Mrs. Li. ”

That is, I have seen it, and I should have a good impression of it, so I will see you again in just two months.

Liu Chenxing's heart was relieved, but while Liu Wensu was relieved, he was a little disappointed, and he lowered his head and didn't want to speak for a while.

Liu Wensu looked funny, and he was really still a child.

"Uncle also drank too much wine tonight, you accompany Uncle to the front yard for a walk, the moonlight on the lotus pond is also quite a bit of artistic conception, Uncle hasn't seen it yet."

After speaking, without waiting for Liu Chenxing to respond, Liu Wensu had already walked towards the front yard, but his pace slowed down, waiting for Liu Chenxing to walk with him.

The moonlight tonight is very good, the moonlight is like flowing water, quietly pouring on this lotus pond, the green lotus leaves seem to be wrapped in a layer of thin veil, like fog but not fog, like a dream wrapped in light veil.

At the beginning of the lotus flower, the sharp corner of the lotus flower is obliquely inserted between the large lotus leaves, the night breeze is coming, there seems to be a faint little lotus fragrance sandwiched in the cool air of spring and summer, the breath is clear.

The night is too quiet, the night is too beautiful, pacing by the lotus pond, Liu Chenxing's heart unconsciously calmed down, and there is nothing to say, it seems good to walk quietly like this.

Neither of the two uncles nor nephews spoke, so they walked slowly.

I don't know how long the night breeze mixed with the vague lotus fragrance blew, and the smell of wine seemed to be blown away without a trace, Liu Wensu took the lead in speaking, breaking the tranquility of this moment, and said, "It's better now, want to talk?" ”

There's really nothing to hide from Uncle Liu.

Liu Chenxing laughed at once.

Seeing the little niece laughing, Liu Wensu couldn't help but smile, and wanted to reach out to rub the little niece's head, but the head on the little niece's head was taken, but the bun coiled on the top of the head, if he dared to rub it, the little nephew would be unhappy, so he had to continue to put his hand behind his back, and couldn't help but miss the niece when he was yellow and hairy, and said: "Don't worry, even if Uncle becomes his own son, you are also the first niece in Uncle's heart, and it hurts more than his own daughter." Luckily? ”

Listening to Uncle Liu's tone of coaxing the child, Liu Chenxing was a little embarrassed.

He is older than Uncle Liu in his two lives combined, and he is still so strong, Liu Chenxing hurriedly came back and said: "Uncle, don't laugh at me, it's all because Uncle is usually too good, which makes Ah Xing a little reluctant." But Ah Xing really hopes that his uncle can marry a beautiful woman and be happy after marriage. Therefore, Uncle still wants to love your daughter the most, and I will also love my little cousin and little cousin very much, and when they are born, when they can be enlightened, just like Uncle taught me when I was a child, I will also teach them well. ”

is still lively eyebrows, and the niece who raises two small dimples looks the most comfortable, which can let him let go of all the deceit in Chang'an and get a moment of peace.

Liu Wensu continued to regard Liu Chenxing as the little girl with sparse and yellow hair back then, and said in a gentle and patient tone: "Whatever you say is what you say, in the future, if your cousins and cousins are disobedient, you can clean them up, and they will all belong to you." In Uncle's place, you will still be the first in the future. ”

The gentle words came into his ears, Liu Chenxing let out a long sigh and looked up at the bright moon in the sky.

Heaven, thick earth!

is so warm-hearted, so considerate, and such an Uncle Liu, how can she be willing to take a back seat, it is not easy to be a little jealous.

Forget it, let's not continue this topic.

Liu Chenxing took a deep breath, then looked at Liu Wensu with blinking eyes, there was a fire of gossip that could not be concealed in his big black and white eyes, and said, "Uncle, how did you and Mrs. Li meet?" What does Mrs. Li look like? And you and Mrs. Li got married so quickly, what the hell is going on? ”

Thinking of Shen Zhongyi who he met in the White Horse Temple in Luoyang, Liu Chenxing suddenly became depressed.

Yes, there was one more crucial thing she hadn't asked.

"Uncle, are you planning to stop being neutral and want to support King Wei?"

It was a helpless little niece who looked excited and curious, but when she heard this last question, Liu Wensu's face was loose, and her warm gaze returned to her usual coldness, looking at a pale pink bud in the lotus pond from a distance.

did not immediately answer whether he wanted to assist Shen Zhongyi, or lightly answered Liu Chenxing's initial question to satisfy Liu Chenxing's curiosity.

It all started like this.

At the beginning, the empress ordered Liu Wensu and Shen Zhongyi to draw up the corresponding rules for the palace examination, and Liu Wensu would inevitably enter and leave the Wei Palace.

Just when I made the first visit, I met Li Siniang.

Shen Zhongyi's maternal grandfather had two sons and two daughters, and his eldest son, Shen Zhongyi's uncle Li Yuanping, was the father of Li Siniang.

Li Siniangzi, the youngest daughter of Li Yuanping and his stepwife Zhang, is in her twentieth year and is waiting to be married.

The Li family has not been snubbed by the empress over the years, and Li Yuanping's career has also declined, and he has been in small and medium-sized states in other places for the history of assassination, and the place is barren, and the year before last, Li Gong suddenly fell seriously ill, and the empress probably sighed a little and transferred Li Yuanping to Yangzhou as an official.

In February, there were several vacant vacancies in Beijing, and Li Yuanping was on the list of officials recommended for this official position, so Li Yuanping returned to Chang'an with his family in March.

Li Siniang has been following Li Yuanping everywhere as an official, and it is impossible to marry her young daughter to the office, and this stay is too old, so as soon as Li Yuanping came to Chang'an, he had the heart to seek a family affair for Li Siniang in Chang'an.

With such a thought, seeing that Liu Wensu was outstanding in the Wei Palace, and he was a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and more importantly, he had a simple background, which was far safer than marrying the magnates in Beijing, so as not to dislike the empress again, so on the second day of the meeting, he asked Liu Wensu if he was willing to marry.

And the person who asked on behalf of him was none other than Shen Zhongyi.

is also bold, Shen Zhongyi actually asked Li Siniang to meet Liu Wensu alone in the Wei Wangfu on the day of the inquiry, and then made a marriage contract on the same day, and then quickly left the marriage ceremony, just waiting for the wedding date to be determined.
