Xu Xiaobai hurriedly said: "Two adults, it's hard to say a word about the so-called absconding of Lu Dali's eight people. Speaking of which, I also have a responsibility, and I hope that the two adults will be lenient. ”

Liu Bowen said: "Escaping from the barracks is a big crime and cannot be punished lightly. However, it is okay to wear guilt and make meritorious contributions. These eight people are already scapegoators, and how to sentence them and arrest them is actually under our control. Therefore, if they can atone for their sins, then everything is easy to say, but if they can't make up for their sins, I am afraid that they will be punished for their sins. ”

I went, and the two adults were always smiling and hiding knives. From the beginning of the first kind of fooling himself to take over, and now threatening the lives of Lu Dali's eight people, all of them have to work hard for the imperial court, this is a complete routine. Official, it's terrifying, I don't know when I was fooled into it by them. But this matter is actually not bad, Lu Dali and the other eight people can't always hide it in Yingtianfu, so they should be very happy when they come to the forefront. And it is directly for the emperor, which is probably something they didn't dare to think of before, and they laughed to death. Well, now that it has come to this point, Xu Xiaobai has nothing to say.

With his brothers, Xu Xiaobai will work for the court.

Song Lian saw that he and Liu Bowen's Jihua had succeeded, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud. These old rivers and lakes have been mixed in officialdom for a long time, and sure enough, one is more sleek than the other. Inevitably, he naturally wanted to appease Xu Xiaobai a few words, and the rhetoric was naturally that as long as this thing is done well, the emperor will be greatly rewarded, and the road to becoming an official in the future will be very smooth.

Xu Xiaobai wanted to say that labor and management did not want to stay in the Ming Dynasty for a long time. There is a gross use for adding officials to the knight.

Song Lian said: "Eradicate the name of the Tu Ming Society's department, and the emperor has already admired it, and this is called the Dragon Group. The dragon is the emperor, and the dragon group is the department organization that the emperor is personally responsible for. ”

"Dragons! Damn, that's not where the name came from. Xu Xiaobai and Xu Ping almost shouted in unison.

Song Lian was curious: "Why are the two of you so amazed. ”

"That's what, nothing, Emperor Bixia is really wise, the name of this wise god martial artist has been thought of by him. Haha, I really don't know if such a wise emperor can I have a true face. ”

Song Lian said: "In the future, you will be in charge of the Dragon Group." And the dragon group is directly led by Bixia. Naturally, you will meet Emperor Bixia. And I already mentioned this matter yesterday to Lord Liu. Since you have agreed to take over the Dragon Group today, you can go to the palace with us tomorrow to meet the emperor. ”

Xu Xiaobai almost blurted out that labor and management were finally going to see Zhu Yuanzhang. But he still held back and said modestly: "It's a blessing to be able to see Bixia's true face." ”

Song Lian said again: "Tomorrow I will let Leng Yan go to your house." Take you to the palace to meet Bixia. That's right. By the way. The matter of eradicating the Tu Ming Society this time is very important, so I have decided to hand over Leng Yan to you as well. ”

"Then isn't there no one around Lord Song to protect him?"

Song Lian waved his hand and said, "If Tu Minghui is eradicated, what am I afraid of." That's why Xiaobai. Ping Nuxia, and Leng Yan, the three of you must remember that you must eradicate Tu Minghui as soon as possible. Okay, that's pretty much it, the kitchen meal is ready, let's stay here for lunch. ”

Originally, they came to eat, but there was no reason to leave when they got to the meal, so if they didn't eat for nothing, Xu Xiaobai and Xu Ping naturally sat down on the table. plus Song Lian and Liu Bowen, these four people are around a large table of dishes, and as for Leng Yan, as a subordinate and bodyguard, she can only stand on the side. However, she has another identity, she is Song Lian's goddaughter, so she is also a little preferential, for example, in fact, she is still arranged a seat, but she is used to standing behind Song Lian and being on guard at any time.

While eating the dishes, Xu Xiaobai also teased and admired: "Wow, Lord Song, this goddaughter of yours is really heroic and meticulous, and she even stands so straight when she eats." ”

Song Lian nodded with satisfaction: "Leng Yan was adopted by me, and I have always regarded her as my real daughter. She was also very filial to me. ”

Liu Bowen said on the side: "Leng Yan is indeed a good girl, but it's a pity that she is such a powerful girl, I'm afraid that many men will be discouraged." ”

"Eh, Berwyn, what nonsense are you talking about. My goddaughter is so good, and I will naturally have good men in the future. Song Lian was a little angry, and it could be seen that he was indeed very protective of Leng Yan, "The man I want to find after my daughter must be all-round in civil and military affairs, so that he can be worthy of her." ”

Liu Bowen smiled and said, "Yes, yes, Leng Yan will definitely find a good man in the future." Hey, thinking about how long we have been officials in the same dynasty, it is also a lot of feeling to get along with each other day and night, I really don't know if I can have such a life when I live alone in the future. ”

Song Lian said curiously: "Where do you say this?" ”

Liu Bowen said: "I have made it clear to the emperor and given me to resign and live in seclusion." ”

"What?" Song Lian was very surprised.

But Xu Xiaobai, who was sitting at the table, was not surprised at all, because in history, Liu Bowen did resign and live in seclusion. The originally cheerful atmosphere became a little dull because of Liu Bowen's seclusion. After the meal was finished, Xu Xiaobai and Xu Ping said goodbye to Song Lian and walked out of the Song Mansion.

Not long after, Liu Bowen also came out of it, and he called out Xu Xiaobai. The old man and the young had something to talk about privately, Xu Xiaobai took Xu Ping away, while he and Liu Bowen talked some things while walking.

Xu Xiaobai asked, "Lord Liu stopped me, there are other things to explain." ”

Liu Bowen waved his hand and said, "I don't have anything to say, I just want to talk to Xiaobai about you." I still remember Xiaobai when you first met me, you asked me if I knew you. ”

"You admit to knowing me?" Xu Xiaobai was very excited.

Liu Bowen shook his head and said, "I'm pretty sure I haven't seen you. But strange to say, since I met you that day, I did think that you were very affectionate, and that I had an indescribable sense of trust in you. It is precisely because of this that I heard Lord Song mention you and recommended you to Emperor Bixia to be the head of the Dragon Group. ”

It turned out that Liu Bowen still didn't know himself, but he had feelings in his mind. Xu Xiaobai worked hard to connect the witchcraft Taoist with Liu Bowen, and he was thinking about what the connection between the two was.

Xu Xiaobai said: "Lord Liu is not an official in the court, but he wants to retire, why is this?" ”

"Hey," Liu Bowen said with a long sigh, "Actually, I have always wanted to be a hermit, but I have no choice but to be in the war era. Turning to Bixia to establish a foundation can be regarded as extending his ambitions. However, after all, I am not suitable for officialdom, nor for the disturbances of the DPRK and China, I just want to find a place to live in seclusion, recall some of the past, and think about the future. I've been wondering where people come from and where they're going. Hehe, I can't figure it out, but I can't figure it out. So, I had to go back to what I thought I was going to be, to be a hermit, and then to think slowly. (To be continued......)
