Liu Bang was called back to Linhua Hall by Mrs. Guan, Chanxin didn't know anything about what she heard in the front hall, and she didn't tell Mrs. Guan, Mrs. Guan was simple-minded and easy to be used, she didn't want Mrs. Guan to cause trouble again.

Hearing that Mrs. Guan wanted to get her younger brother into the palace, Liu Bang was not very happy at first, and was very unhappy to see a rich boy like Guan Xiuyan, who had no ability to eat well, live well, and play well. Especially recently, I learned from some subordinates that Guan Xiuyan was showing off his wealth in Chang'an, and openly recruited good maids from the family. In addition, Guan Xiuyan has used money many times to buy Oriental Pearl, coral carving, Qiu Rong, Biyu, and Chinensis; Buy tortoiseshell, rhinoceros, ivory hides from the South. For a time, the Chang'an goods value families often ran to Guan Xiuyan's mansion to watch his gold, silver and jade and rare treasures in Guanzhong, the mansion had an endless stream of people day and night, and they were happy to invite special invitations, which was very lively, and Guan Xiuyan became friends with these goods value families. Liu Bangnian was Mrs. Guan's younger brother, so he didn't stop him, and he didn't want to ask Mrs. Guan to contact him again, of course, Liu Bang knew that many royal relatives in Chang'an were so showing off their wealth that they couldn't stop it. So he didn't agree to call Guan Xiuyan into the palace. Mrs. Guan said anything good, Liu Bang waved his wide robe and big sleeves and didn't let him see it. Mrs. Guan began to cry and cry, sat on the mat and complained that Liu Bang said some time ago that if he wanted to see his younger brother, he would be summoned to the palace, but now the emperor doesn't talk anymore, and even his relatives are not allowed to see him. Liu Bang remembered that he had made such a promise when he went to Linhua Palace, but he forgot it, but Mrs. Guan regarded it as a holy decree, and he said this completely to comfort Mrs. Guan, who wanted to fight for a marquis for her younger brother at that time, but she didn't expect to say that as if she became today's customs clearance document. Suddenly Liu Bang had nothing to say, and seeing that Liu Bang still disagreed, Mrs. Guan continued to cry, "Your Majesty's golden mouth and jade words are not as good as Ji Bu's daughter?" The concubine hasn't seen her brother for a few years, and you don't want to let you see it? Your Majesty has never attached importance to concubines in his heart, so why do you speak so repeatedly? Crying and crying, Liu Bang felt upset and apologetic.

Liu Bang patted her shoulder after a few cases, smiled and comforted, "I, I did say so." Let you see him today, and why should you compare me with Jibu? At the beginning of the country, you should be thrifty and self-disciplined, and persuade your brother well. ”

Without thinking carefully about the last sentence, Hikari remembered the previous one, "Hurry up and make an order." Mrs. Guan got up happily, she got up too violently, Mrs. Guan's head almost knocked out Liu Bang's teeth behind her, knocked Liu Bang's chin, and suddenly screamed in pain. Mrs. Guan was flustered for a while, and quickly helped Liu Bang sit down, asking to see if his chin was swollen, Liu Bang held his chin tightly with one hand, and complained vaguely in pain, "It's not stable at all, it's not a lady." Mrs. Guan paused for a moment, then giggled on the spot, wrapped her hands around Liu Bang's neck from behind, and giggled in an affectionate whisper in his ear. Liu Bang forgot the pain and hugged Mrs. Guan, and affectionately left a slightly painful kiss mark on Mrs. Guan's lips, Mrs. Guan didn't have time to react, and when he let go, there was a faint pain in his mouth, Mrs. Guan was angry and smiled shyly and said, "The Son of Heaven is still bullying." He turned his face away as if he had honey in his heart. Liu Bang continued to hold his chin and smiled.

After grinding and hard bubbles on Liu Bang, Mrs. Guan insisted that Liu Bang promise her to send an edict to find her younger brother Guan Xiuyan outside the palace.

After the last Weishui incident, Chang'an has not seen Liu Bang Zhang Bang issue an edict for a long time, and today's edict provoked the people in the city to come and see.

"Emperor's edict: Mrs. Guan is worried about her relatives Guan Xiuyan, and Guan Jun will enter the palace immediately."

The people on the street thought it was something big, but it turned out that Mrs. Guan missed her relatives, and the gathered crowd suddenly dispersed again, each doing their own thing. In the crowd, Huo Ran appeared a broad boy with a birdcage in his hand, dressed in a funny appearance, with a red flower on the side of the crown on his head, holding his cuffs, and the lower corner of his clothes was pulled into the bag at his waist, holding a straw in his mouth, and walking leisurely. There are some market habits on his face, swaying and walking, sometimes taking the straw in his mouth to tease the caged bird, making the birds squeak, sometimes greeting the passers-by, sometimes laughing and teasing the little girl selling flowers on the street.

"Master Guan." Passers-by greeted him respectfully and with a slight mockery, and he always nodded and smiled with satisfaction.

This is Guan Xiuyan, who has nothing to do all day long, and does not have to worry about eating and drinking, and lives a comfortable life every day.

"Okay, okay, how are you doing?" Guan Xiuyan opened his mouth and responded happily to others, holding the birdcage in one hand, and casually resting the other hand on the shoulder of the person who greeted him, revealing a mouthful of big yellow teeth, looking like a complete ruffian.

"Thanks to your care, three meals a day and two meals are satisfied, and the people dare not think about the third meal." There was sarcasm in the man's words.

Guan Xiuyan didn't react at first, and nodded in agreement, and after a while, his eyes widened with a 'hmm', bent his head to look at the man he was holding in his arms, and patted the man's head and said, "Isn't it the one who is hearty, isn't it ridiculing me?" The lord takes care of you because he can afford you, and the lord makes you unable to eat? Tell you, I'm the current emperor...... Mrs. Tube...... 's younger brother, will the lord run out of money? Look at your master, go aside. Guan Xiuyan said and pushed the man away unhappily.

The man began to greet him, "Yes, yes, Guan Ye is famous, except for money or money, it is even wider than the previous Lu Gongzi." ”

"You deliberately, what is it except money or money, compare Ye and Lu Ling. Hey, I said what's wrong today, I'm always unhappy with my grandfather, and tell you that my grandfather also has love. Guan Xiuyan didn't seem to be very stupid, and when he heard it, he could tell that he was mocking him, and when he looked to the right, he happened to see a beggar kneeling on the ground begging in tattered clothes. Guan Xiuyan turned around again, "Look, Ye and I are loving, Ye just wants to give him money, Ye is better than Lu Ling." As he spoke, he walked up to the beggar, threw a piece of gold on the beggar, and said arrogantly, "No thanks, I have everything." He burst out laughing, and when he looked back at the man, the man he had accosted him was long gone.

Guan Xiuyan was left with a boring shrug and pouted.

When he was walking and teasing the birds, a man hurriedly walked in front of him, and when he saw him, he panted and said, "Master Guan, why are you still here?" ”

Guan Xiuyantou was stunned for a moment, looking inexplicable, and said with a smile when he thought about it in his mind, "Master, I didn't sell it to the Bai family's shop, I walked the birds with enough wine and food, hey, it's good." ”

"No, didn't the palace issue an edict for you to go to the palace? Don't you know? The man said eagerly.

Guan Xiuyan heard that it was an edict from the palace, and he hadn't seen anything from the palace for a few years.

Seeing that Guan Xiuyan didn't move, the man hurriedly pointed him in the direction, "There, you see that the emperor list is in front, and you can see it yourself." ”

Guan Xiuyan couldn't care so much, and was anxious to know what was said to him on the imperial list, so he put on the bird cage and left the man, ran to the front of the emperor list in one step, pulled away the crowd that had not yet left, and looked at a few lines of words fiercely, only thinking that the characters in the script were as beautiful as paintings, but he couldn't read them, he didn't read or read, and he couldn't understand what was written on them. In a hurry, he grabbed a man with a white scarf on his head, and excitedly pointed to the emperor and said incoherently, "What did you say, read it, and reward you with money." ”

The man wrapped in a white scarf was grabbed by him, and obediently read aloud, "Emperor's edict: Mrs. Guan is worried about her relatives Guan Xiuyan, and Guan Jun will enter the palace immediately." ”

He grabbed a few ingots of silver from his sleeve and threw it at him without looking at the number, his eyes widened and he looked at the emperor's list, and he was wooden for a while, and slowly the smile on his face flooded, and he laughed at the sky for a while.

"My sister hasn't forgotten me." After speaking, the smile suddenly disappeared, frowned, and said to himself: My sister has not summoned me for many years, why is it this time.

Guan Xiuyan didn't think so much, so he went home with a birdcage, changed into a clean and decent Hanfu, combed his hair, took a high crown, pulled off the flower arrangement on the side of the crown, and entered the palace with the imperial list.

Because summoning Guan Xiuyan was not Liu Bang's idea, he was led directly to Linhua Hall by the eunuch as soon as he entered the palace.

While walking while looking at everything in the palace, look left and right, the palace is really good, so big, there are many buildings and high and gorgeous, the scenery is not bad, the most important thing is to see the beauty, the beauty here is more than the Peugeot outside, anyway, the road is overwhelming.

After a while, he followed the eunuch to the Linhua Palace, and he did not enter the palace for many years, the Linhua Palace is still the same, and the flowers that my sister loves are still planted in the palace, which has not changed at all.

As soon as I entered the hall, I saw Mrs. Guan buried herself in a few cases, a burst of scissors and a burst of needle threads. There are few girls in the hall, but they seem to be very quiet and harmonious, standing in front of the temple door, and my sister didn't find it.

"Sister." Guan Xiuyan respectfully stood at the door of the hall and called softly.

The work that Mrs. Guan was busy with suddenly stopped, she was stunned for a moment, and looked up slightly at the person at the entrance of the hall, who was her younger brother, who had gained a lot of weight and had a lot of rich temperament.

"Brother." Mrs. Guan called with joy on her face, immediately put down the work in her hand, got up and ran to Guan Xiuyan.

Guan Xiuyan did not forget the rules of the palace, and raised his hand to his sister who ran towards him from afar and bowed deeply. Mrs. Guan walked over and helped her younger brother up and welcomed her into the main hall. The two of them held hands tightly in the main hall, and each other's eyes were red, and they felt a little strange and very cordial after not seeing each other for a few years. Mrs. Guan was so excited that she didn't let go of her brother's hand for a long time, and the corners of her mouth moved, but she couldn't say a word. It was Guan Xiuyan who took the lead and greeted her sister about the situation in recent years, Mrs. Guan replied with a smile, talked to each other, and Mrs. Guan pulled Guan Xiuyan to sit down next to a few cases.

"Brother, how are you doing outside the palace in the past few years?" Mrs. Guan said, personally poured a cup of tea for her younger brother and handed it to him.

"Okay, carefree." Guan Xiuyan took the tea and warmed her hands in the palm of her hand, looked at her sister, and suddenly felt a lot warmer in her heart, "How is your sister?" ”

Madame Guan whispered an 'oh' and nodded.

"I don't know what happened to my sister coming to me this time?" Guan Xiuyan drank tea and asked.

Mrs. Guan put away the face that was still smiling just now, cautiously glanced at the palace maids and eunuchs in the main hall, and waved to them, "Go down, you are not allowed to come in without orders." ”

The palace maids and eunuchs all retreated. It just so happened that Chanxin came in from outside with a snack, and saw that Guan Xiuyan had come, so she made a simple etiquette, put the dim sum on the case, and stood back behind Mrs. Guan.

When Guan Xiuyan saw her sister's formation, she was puzzled in her heart, and she thought to herself that it must be a big deal. took two sips of tea and listened to my sister carefully and seriously.

"Sister does need your help with something." Mrs. Guan leaned forward to Guan Xiuyan, approached Guan Xiuyan and said in a low and slightly solemn voice.

Guan Xiuyan also leaned forward with the trend, "Sister say it." ”

Mrs. Guan was just about to say when Chanxin grabbed her clothes behind her, and Chanxin attached herself to her and whispered, "Madam, have you forgotten the last time the queen slapped you?" It's too risky for us to do this, so let's forget it, slave and maid. Chanxin suddenly remembered that the queen had brought someone to Linhuadian and slapped Mrs. Guan wildly, and she was anxious and worried and said it.

Hearing this, Mrs. Guan's face suddenly lost energy, her eyes were full of panic, solemn, contemplative, and gloomy, her tongue unconsciously stirred in her mouth, and suddenly a trace of fear and hesitation came to her heart.
