Volume 1 Ling Yuan's Old Things and New Schemes Chapter 18 Drunken Troubles, Mixed Joys and Sorrows (I)
As soon as noon passed, the light snow gradually stopped, the road was thin and white, and the entire Lingyuan City fell into a blanket of silver.
Liu Quansheng was full of wine, carrying a wine gourd on his waist, swaying left and right, and swaggering towards Nancheng.
Eleven years ago, Liu Quansheng 'resigned' from the post of Guanglu Shaoqing and quietly returned to his hometown of Lingyuan City from Chang'an, Gyeonggi.
Going south with such a swagger as today is the first time in more than a decade.
Young Liu Yi was wearing a clean and tidy cotton jacket, following Liu Quansheng, although today is a big set, but under the instruction of Liu Quansheng, Liu Yi did not go to the North Building to help cook, at this moment, he is holding the red rabbit, closely behind Liu Quansheng.
Along the way, Liu Yi's mood was a little depressed.
In the past, when the father and son went out, Liu Quansheng would always take this opportunity to talk with Liu Yi and teach him the philosophy and principles of how to behave in the world, but today, Liu Quansheng did not say a word, which made Liu Yi have a hunch that something big would happen.
Although Liu Yi is a young man, after all, he has a young heart, and the father and son are more than halfway through the trip, so he can't hold it back, and asks timidly, "Father, what is the matter with us going to Nancheng?" ”
Liu Quansheng smiled sideways and was personable, "See a person, kill a person!" ”
This sentence was an understatement by Liu Quansheng, but it made Liu Yi feel horrified.
In Liu Yi's heart, his father Liu Quansheng has always been gentle and elegant, never seen him angry with others, since he was a child, this is the first time he heard the word 'killing' from his father's mouth, although this is said with anger, but it is still difficult to hide the killing intent.
Therefore, Liu Yi couldn't wait to ask, "Who do you see, who do you kill?" ”
Liu Quansheng said lightly, "Grandpa, second uncle!" ”
Liu Yi chased after him, "Who is grandpa?" Who is the second uncle? ”
Liu Quansheng laughed loudly, "Yi'er, you are extremely talented, you have been familiar with hundreds of classics since you were a child, although you are young now, but with your ability and heart, it is not a problem to find a 500 stone official." Since my son is so smart, how can it be difficult to figure out this problem? ”
"Is my father really the third child of the Liu family as they say?"
Liu Yi was interested, and rushed in front of Liu Quan in three steps and two steps, turned around to face him, and asked as he walked, his clear eyes were full of questions and expectations.
"How so?" Liu Quansheng's drunken eyes suddenly revealed a glimmer of light.
Liu Yi looked forward to it and explained with a smile, "Looking at recent events, Liu Ruisheng is the only one who should be punished, but my father asked me to call Liu Ruisheng the second uncle." As we all know, Lingyuan Liu has three sons, the eldest Liu Desheng, and the second Liu Ruisheng, this third is naturally a father! ”
Liu Quansheng rubbed Liu Yi's hair lightly, and said with a warm smile, "You kid, you're quite smart." ”
Liu Yi was complacent, and then asked excitedly, "Father, as far as the child knows, you served as Guanglu Shaoqing in Guanglu Temple in Chang'an, Gyeonggi, and Guanglu Shaoqing was a big man second only to Guanglu Xun among the Five Princes and Twelve Secretaries, and he was a member of the imperial court with a rank of 1,500 stones!" Why did my father give up the high-ranking official Houlu and return to Lingyuan incognito? ”
Liu Quansheng's expression was indifferent, "Where did you get all this news?" ”
Liu Yi scratched his head and smiled, "Haha, father, your teacher, Grandpa Dongfang, is a real talker, about some of your past, Grandpa Dongfang has long been reluctant to admit to Yi'er!" ”
Liu Quansheng smiled helplessly, "I'm a teacher, I've been talking so much after decades." ”
"It's not talkative, it's long-winded." Liu Yi pursed his mouth, and then asked unrelentingly, "Father, you haven't answered your son's question yet!" Why did you give up your high-ranking officials and insist on returning to your hometown to be an ordinary teacher? ”
"The reason why the river broke through the pass and came out is because it has accumulated the great power of the flood that rushes for thousands of miles and returns to the stream, which is the case in ancient and modern times." Liu Quansheng did not answer Liu Yi's question directly, but looked at Liu Yi and preached, "Even if there is no obvious effect, it is clumsy, if you are willing to keep it, it is not enough to succeed, and you should hide it, can I understand this truth?" ”
Liu Yi lowered his head and pondered for a while, and finally seemed to have an understanding, and asked Liu Quansheng, "What is what my father wants to do?" can let his father hibernate Ling Yuan for more than ten years to waste his youth? ”
Liu Quansheng was meaningful, "The time has not yet come, you can't say." Human affection, right and wrong, when you are really rooted, you will naturally understand! ”
Liu Yi was confused by Liu Quansheng's words, but he didn't continue to ask, with his son's understanding of his father, if Liu Quansheng didn't want to say it, no one would want to ask.
So, Liu Yi was a little wrong, and replied with a grin, "Children are taught!" ”
The father and son were silent again, the two walked slowly, from time to time ordinary people would call 'Mr. Big', and there would also be little yellow hair dragging snot and calling Liu Yi 'boss', this pair of celebrity father and son is very dazzling on the street.
Along the way, the father and son took the limelight.
......
After more than half an hour, the father and son finally stood in Lingyuan Liu's mansion, Qinghe Residence.
This Qinghe residence is located in the west lane of the south city, north of Shenshui Street, east of the county command, west of the Liu barracks, south of the Lingyuan Lake, occupy the best time and place, the most Lingyuan.
The length and width of Qinghe dwelling are 188 zhang each, and they are grouped by the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard, and the outer courtyard has 6 out of 40 houses, and the inner courtyard has 2 out of 20 houses. The pillars, beams, and eaves of the whole Qinghe residence are all straight and long lines, and the corridor waist is retracted, and the eaves teeth are high pecked, and the edges and corners are desperate. All the courtyards are made of fine cedar wood, the fragrance of pine wood fills the whole courtyard, the stream shuttles through it, the wooden stems grow, the show dry into the building, the posture is thousands, and the spring and autumn charm is different.
Liu Quansheng and Liu Yi, the father and son, stopped at the main gate of Qinghe Ju, the door is black and red, carved pastoral hunting spring map, ring jade turtle, fighting arch Xuanwu, the style of the wealthy family is fully displayed, looking at Lingyuan, dare to enjoy such a place of extreme elegance, I am afraid that only these two generations of emperors and the wealthy Liu family!
"Everyone only knows the first four sentences of Emperor Shenwu's "Lingyuan Short Song", but they don't know that the last four sentences of 'On the North Hall of the Iron Army, Dirty Zhumen' is full of profound meaning. And what is ridiculed is the mansion of Lingyuan Liu's family, Qingheju. ”
Liu Quansheng stood at the main door, sighed softly, and then, with his son Liu Yi, bypassed the front door, quietly entered through the back door, and entered Qinghe Ju, Liu Quansheng was familiar with the road, and went straight to the attic in the northwest corner of the inner courtyard.
In the inner courtyard, the northwest corner attic next to the back door, the owner's surname is Liu Mingdesheng.
At noon, his 'baby' third brother Liu Quansheng took the opportunity of drinking in the North Building, and entrusted Yang Liu's hand to send a silk book.
Among the three brothers of the Liu family, Liu Desheng is the eldest son, Liu Ruisheng is the son-in-law, and Liu Quansheng is the second son.
Therefore, if it is said that among the three sons of the Liu family, there is no hope of inheriting the position of the head of the family, this person is none other than Liu Quansheng.
If Liu Quansheng was a strong opponent at this time, then Liu Desheng would not hesitate to suppress him wildly, but now, since Liu Quansheng is an abandoned son of the family, he treats Liu Quansheng with a different attitude.
In addition, the five big characters given by Liu Quansheng at noon can be described as full of deep meaning.
As a result, Liu Desheng looked at Liu Quansheng's father and son from afar, and there were three more innocent smiles on their faces.
Third brother, third brother, what kind of surprise do you want to bring to your eldest brother?
