Chapter 174: Clan

Mu Yanzhao's words and actions, this is quite gentle, after all, it is his fourth brother in front of him, young and old. Forrest gump

The crown prince Mu Yanxu didn't have so many scruples, his gaze simply made everyone who saw it feel cold, especially Mu Yanye, who almost didn't dare to look directly at this big brother.

Mu Yanxu's face, illuminated by the candlelight, was blurred, and he lowered his voice: "If you are filial, shut your mouth, my father hated noise the most when he was alive!" ”

After sobbing for a long time, King Li probably lost his strength and finally gave birth in peace.

The front hall of Daxing Palace has restored its tranquility. The family just knelt on the ground in a daze, staring at the huge coffin.

After a night, King Li's body did not move, and by dawn, his body was so stiff that he couldn't stand up, and finally Mu Yanxu sent someone to carry him home.

In the days that followed, King Li was very silent, and he didn't know if it was caused by the disaster of imprisonment or his father's death, which hit him too hard, and the whole person lost a lot of weight, and his expression became gloomy, and he no longer looked like he was gentle and gentle.

Several brothers of the Mu family were immersed in the grief of their father's death, and no one noticed him at all, and several sisters-in-law were also very busy, so it was inevitable that they would be a little negligent to him.

Other than that, the funeral went well.

The emperor's name and temple number were quickly determined, Mu Fang was the founding emperor, and he was the emperor of Wu.

The first emperor was originally married to the queen Xia, and his wife followed her husband and chased the queen mother.

At this point, Mu Fang's era ended, and Mu Yanxu's era began...... On an autumn morning, near the lake, the water is misty. Under such poetic feeling, Liu Jin's mood is not very good.

Gu Wan could understand, after all, Mu Fang was his friend for many years. Once lost, even if Kuangda is as good as Liu Jin, it is inevitable that he will be a little sad. Anyway, it's a national funeral now. She didn't have much to do, so she stayed with her uncle and master every day.

Not to mention, Liu Yin and Chen Wenrou, although they are not young, one is chic and graceful, and the other also has a beauty that transcends age and never fades.

Gu Wan simply put pen and ink on the table. I took a pencil and sketched a sketch, intending to go back and paint a serious oil painting.

Liu Jian watched her draw a few strokes with great interest, and said with a smile: "This painting method is fresh...... He himself is proficient in calligraphy and painting, although Gu Wan only used a pencil to type a draft, but he has already seen something unusual in it.

Chen Wenrou also likes it. simply sat next to Liu Yin's hand, holding his arm affectionately, regardless of whether it was in front of the juniors, he was quite willing to look at Gu Wan. Forrest gump

Gu Wan was still a little naïve at the beginning, and she didn't draw two strokes, but she became a lot more proficient, and quickly sketched a character image that could be called exquisite, raised it and modified two slightly rough places, and nodded with satisfaction. Her ink paintings are the best. But portraits are better than oil paintings, at least, there are no such realistic portraits in this era. The so-called art is already well-understood, and Gu Wan's attainments in oil painting. Even if it's just general, it's enough to draw a random picture by yourself.

Liu Jian quietly looked at her soft and serious side face, and suddenly said: "Wan'er, you really look like your mother, especially the way you paint seriously......" His face showed a little inexplicable sigh.

At this time, Zhang Kui, the steward of the Guogong Mansion, suddenly came in and said that the Liu family had sent a letter.

Liu Jin's face froze suddenly.

Gu Wan didn't react at first, and it took a while before she suddenly came back to her senses - this Liu family does not refer to her uncle's family, but the Dayong Liu family, the Liu family, one of the four great families of the year - the Liu family is well versed in the golden mean, and never wants to get involved in any disputes, even if Liu Chengfeng, the patriarch of the Liu family, was willing to be a leader back then, he was a foolish minister for decades, and never interfered in major matters.

Why would such a person write to his uncle?

Gu Wan looked up in a daze, and when she saw her uncle's complicated face, she couldn't help but smile bitterly, she knew that her mother was from an extraordinary background, but she didn't expect that her mother was really from the Jingzhao Liu family, one of the four major families!

She has always been a smart person, even if her uncle didn't say it, she had vaguely guessed before, after all, what can raise a lady like her mother, and an outstanding talent like her uncle, can only be a family, not an ordinary family. The range of options is really not too wide.

She has to admit that in terms of talent training, the family is much stronger than the poor and the noble.

It's just that the Liu family in her heart, the Liu family she looks forward to forever prosperous, the Liu family with an uncle, what she remembers in her heart, the mother's mother's family, has never had an uncle, the past life and this life, never change, and now the Liu family of the four major families, even if it is prominent, has nothing to do with her!

"You guessed it? We Wan'er, smarter than Yan'er, are better than the blue, very good. Liu Yin smiled bitterly and subconsciously crumpled the letter. He rarely seemed so flustered.

Gu Wan looked at him with a smile, only listening, refusing to speak.

Liu Yin closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes were already clear, and he threw the letter on the table: "Don't complain about the Liu family, in fact, the Liu family is not sorry for our family, after all, it was my father who violated the family rules before being expelled from the sect." ”

Liu Yin and Liu Yan's father back then, Liu Chengyu was not only involved in the battle for succession, but also became the ninth prince of the year, that is, the confidant of the last emperor of the Feng Dynasty, Shui Ze, who dealt with many private matters for him, and Shui Ze could quietly step on the seven imperial brothers on his head, and step on the supreme throne with blood and white bones, at least Liu Chengyu has seven points of credit.

Liu Chengyu knows too many secrets, he instinctively thinks about his future fate, and he will worry that he will be expelled from the family back then, it is not his tacit understanding with the clan, he can't drag the family into the water together!

It's just that no matter how many reasons there are, Liu Jin can't be relieved, after all, his father has been depressed for more than ten years because of what happened, and finally died of depression in prison.

With a long exhale, Liu Jian tried his best to calm himself down, so as not to have a bad impact on Gu Wan: "Back then, my father was young and vigorous, he was not afraid of heaven and earth, and he liked to be free and easy the most, and he was impatient with the boredom of the capital, so he took his mother out to play, but when he encountered the barbarians plundering, he escaped with his mother, but the barbarians chased after him, and when he was in danger, he was rescued by the Nine Princes...... Dad can't help it, his life is bright and upright, and he is a little pedantic, since he owes the Nine Princes two lives, then his life was sold to the Nine Emperors Shuizawa, which is a reins tied to his neck, and he can't break free for the rest of his life. ”

Gu Wan listened to Liu Jin's words without the slightest emotion, lowered her head, for her grandfather's decision, as a junior, she is not easy to evaluate, although she may have changed her, she would rather be a villain than give her freedom to pay off her debts, but her grandfather Liu Chengyu is different from her after all, that man was raised by a family and is a gentleman!

"I can only blame my father for his resourceful reputation, and it spread all over the capital too early, and I can only blame him for not knowing what it means to hide clumsy." Liu Jian sighed, even for his father, he was quite inexplicable and hid a deep hatred.

"That year, my father was very anxious, and took my sister and me to Liu's house several times, and he had several disputes with Liu Chengfeng in the study, but in the end he was disappointed and returned."

"Once I overheard my father say that he wanted to entrust me and my sister to Liu Chengfeng, but Liu Chengfeng refused to agree, and said that since my father has been removed from the family, he is no longer from the Liu family, and he is not interested in raising two children from outsiders!"

"When I got home, my father was very drunk, and since then, he has never been to the door of Liu's house, and then something really happened... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ］
