Suzhou, rainy and rainy.

At that time, Fan Zhongyan, who knew Suzhou, was consulting the file at the official residence,

Liu Yong stood in front of the official residence with an umbrella, and the gatekeeper stepped forward and asked, "Who is here?"

"I'm your Fan Zhongyanke, I'm his friend, I'm Liu Yong, I went to Muzhou to take office, and I passed through here on the way recently, so I wanted to come to pay respects."

Liu Yong handed over his name card as he spoke, and the puppet looked at it and said, "It's Liu Tuanlian, you wait, I'll go and report to Fan Zhizhou."

After a while, the man came out and made a gesture of please, and the man led him to the hall, where Fan Zhongyan was waiting for him.

Fan Zhongyan got up: "Brother Liu, it's okay to see each other?"

Liu Yong smiled: "It's okay, it's okay."

"In the past, Brother Liu, you fell several times, today you have been able to enter the Jinshi, rushed to Muzhou to serve as a regimental training on the way to visit me, I think it is also you and me brotherhood, I am now a large number of officials, the financial expenditure, I am already thinking of a way, Brother Liu and go to Muzhou first, if this plan can be successful, Brother Liu should soon be transferred back to Beijing, at least three years, at most five years."

When Liu Yong heard this, his face became serious, and he said, "Then thank you Brother Xian first."

It's night, Suzhou Mansion.

"Brother Liu, come on, come on, tonight, you and I won't get drunk and won't return."

Fan Zhongyan toasted with a glass of wine, Liu Yong drank it all, he drank three glasses in a row, slightly drunk.

The singer who was singing on the piano on the side was singing Liu Yong's words: "I gradually feel that the suburbs are bright, and the night comes to anoint the rain, and the dust is sprinkled." The eyes are full of light peaches and deep apricots, and the dew is dyed in style. The silver pond is quiet, the fish scales are spreading, the smoke is green, and the tortoise shell is open. Yin Qing thunder, blowing in the clouds, traveling all over Penglai.

Wander. Before and after the set, three thousand beads, twelve gold hairpins. Elegant and vulgar, get off the bus into a banquet and end the spring platform. Good grace, Dongshan prostitute, laughing and proud, Beihai respectful. and chase, Feng Chi returns, and it will come again."

Liu Yong put down the wine glass, stood up, and muttered in his mouth: "Worms, spring goes to spring, we can't go back to the past, we can't go back."

Liu Yong walked out of the mansion crookedly, only to see Xie Yuying standing in the rain with an umbrella, and seeing that Liu Yong was about to fall, Xie Yuying walked over to help him.

Xie Yuying said with little concern: "Brother Liu Qi, what's wrong with you, why are you so drunk, let's go, let's go back!"

Liu Yong shook off her hand, pulled out the saber in his hand, and it danced wildly, the leaves were injured by the sword qi, and they flew in the wind of the rainy night, so that the sight was stuck on the ground.

In the middle of the night, outside the city gates, a man fell in a pool of his own blood.

The next day, when the rain stopped, there were many onlookers under the city gates, and the officers and soldiers soon came and carried the body away.

Fan Zhongyan looked at the wound of the corpse and said to the guards beside him, "Go and check his identity and origin."

The guard looked at the corpse and said: "This person must be the assassin of the Heaven and Earth Pavilion, you see, his waist card, this person has nothing to do with that Liu Yong, there have always been rumors in the rivers and lakes that Liu Yong is Liu Sanchang, nominally the son of the late Guozi Doctor Liu Yi, but in fact he is the eldest grandson of the Southern Tang Emperor, and this Heaven and Earth Pavilion was established for him, in order to support the world and oppose the Song Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty."

Fan Zhongyan looked at the door of the yamen, pondered, and said for a moment: "This son, maybe he has already left the city, this person, on my chassis, didn't poke out any baskets, find a place to bury him, this matter is over!"

Outside the city, the long pavilion.

Xie Yuying held a glass of wine and said with tears in her eyes: "This collection of words is a manuscript that I personally copied, it is full of words written by you, I collected them everywhere, I will say goodbye today, I don't know what year and month I will see you again, but I will always be here waiting for you to come again."

Liu Yong took the book from Xie Yuying's hand, took a deep breath and said: "It's only two or three years, there has never been a shortage of women around me in this life, but each of you is special and indispensable in my life, and it is because of you that there will be this book" Liu Yong said to Xie Yuying with the book of words in one hand, and wiped the tears from the corners of Xie Yuying's eyes with the other.

One rode home, and the other saw it with tears in his eyes.
