Liu Zhengde's mansion is located in the southern mountains of the city, and the railway station is close to the entire city, although there are not many people with cars in these days, but because of pedestrians, the speed in the city is still very fast, and it takes nearly two hours on the road.

Liu Zhengde, the only one with the Chiyun Empire's driving qualification certificate, was responsible for driving, Liu Wenhan sat in the co-pilot, and Liu Yun and Liu Tian squeezed Liu Wenqian in the middle one left and one right.

"Why did you drive here this time, second brother? What about drivers? In the car, Liu Yun asked.

"Hey!" are all family members, Liu Zhengde doesn't put on any shelf, and he doesn't have the attitude of cherishing words like gold in front of outsiders, "Isn't this just a vacation, since I am free, how can I let the driver pick you up?" ”

"Moreover, this is the first time I have met my niece, how can I give such a memorable event to the driver? It's not that your sister-in-law just happened to go back to her parents' house, I was going to call her together. ”

"But fortunately, she went back to her parents' house, otherwise this car is so small that it can't be carried - someone is blocking the front, and I already knew to drive the military vehicle over......"

"The road in Peijun has to be repaired, and it should be widened." Liu Yun replied, "There are too many one-way streets, and the traffic is inconvenient - the area of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom is basically eight lanes, and the narrowest one will not be lower than four lanes, why are the roads here still so narrow after so many years?" ”

"Isn't it the castle lord's problem?" Liu Zhengde said with a smile, "It's not that the top didn't allocate money to him, but he's greedy - you know, he spent a lot of money to get this position, if he doesn't earn ten times more, then how can he do it?"

"The Red Cloud Empire, has it fallen to this point?" Obviously aware of the key words, Liu Yun frowned, "Selling the official mantle, this is the image of the last years of the dynasty, it has only been a few years." ”

"Since the defeat of the war ten years ago, the three major empires, except for the Dawn Alliance that has just been established, whether it is the Red Cloud Empire or the Morning Star Alliance, have been in continuous decline." What may be considered confidential in other places, Liu Zhengde casually said in his casual conversation, "If you lose the largest colony and the most profitable exploration project, you still need to maintain the glory and wealth of that group of people, how can you not sell your official beard?" ”

"The eight-hundred-year-old dynasty, if it weren't for the end of the storm at the beginning, the Red Cloud Empire would have collapsed a long time ago, and it's not too late now, the good days won't last long......"

"That group of fat-brained guys are like a group of bloodsuckers, since they can't suck the blood of other places, they can only suck their own blood, in my opinion, within ten years, if there is no external war, there will be a civil war, if there is another natural disaster, hey, the life span of the Red Cloud Empire is over."

"Fifth brother, your decision to run away is very correct, now this is a treacherous and unpredictable situation, maybe one day we will ask for you."

Obviously, he is an upper-class person in the Chiyun Empire, and he can be regarded as a person in power in the army, and the entire Liu family can be said to be thriving, but Liu Zhengde does not look hopeful about the future of the Chiyun Empire at all, and even arranges a way back between his words.

"Okay, let's not talk about that." Before Liu Yun could reply, Liu Zhengde changed his words and led the topic to Liu Tian, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen my nephew talk all the time, is it shy?" ”

“？” Hearing the mention of himself, Liu Tian, who was bored looking at the special scene of the security guards beating the homeless man everywhere outside the window, turned his head, "Me? No, I just don't have much to say. ”

"Nothing to say?" Liu Zhengde took the words, and a lot of words crackled out, "Why don't you just talk about how you guys got together?" In addition, does the nephew have a marriage contract now? Do you want your second uncle to draw you a string? Oh no, I forgot, the beauties of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom are famous, presumably you already have a favorite object for your nephew, right? ”

"Nope." Liu Tian simply returned neatly, not giving Liu Zhengde any chance to make up for his brains, "Women will only delay my speed of martial arts training, and I won't be the first in the world in one day, so I'm not interested in talking about any love and love." ”

“？” Liu Zhengde laughed and said, "It's worthy of being the fifth brother, you are as far-sighted as you used to be - the first in the world?" I used to think about it when I was younger, but where is this possible? This world is too big, there is no first in literature, and there is no second in martial arts! ”

"Don't mention it." Liu Yun sighed, "My son is too paranoid, no matter how much he persuades him, he won't look back, he wants to be the best in the world, and he won't look back if he doesn't hit the south wall." ”

"Well, that's not bad. Young people have to have dreams, and as they grow up, they will naturally change. Liu Zhengde comforted instead, "I remember what did you think about before, fifth brother-walking all over Qingshan, people are not old?" I must go to sea and watch the scenery of the world, but I can't persuade you to go back. Didn't you marry a wife and have children? You just haven't come back, and the old man can often talk about you. ”

"Second brother, don't comfort me, my father has five daughters and seven sons, all of them are talented, there is no more than me, and there is no less than me." The years have passed, and the previous mistakes can be laughed over, as if he is talking about others, Liu Yun's expression is calm, "Especially with the second brother you are here, how can my father think about me as a rebel?" The last time I went back, my father didn't even recognize me. ”

"After all, my father is also old, he is a hundred years old, and I don't know how long it will be, and it will be a day by day." Liu Zhengde also said, "If the situation is stable now, I will definitely persuade you not to return to the Hundred Flowers Kingdom when you come back this time, but now, alas, live one day at a time......"

"Second brother, don't be too pessimistic, there are still three points of nails in the rotten ship, the Red Cloud Empire has been in the Red Cloud Empire for so many years, how can you say that it will fall." Liu Yun comforted, "Speaking of which, my son has been very fond of the antiques of the Lost Empire recently, didn't you go there to fight the war, second brother?" Did you leave any souvenirs behind? It also opened my son's eyes. ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, I really left a lot of those things, and they are not too expensive, just as I gave my nephew a meeting gift." Liu Zhengde said generously, "It's all in the warehouse, and when the time comes, Wentian, what do you like, take two things with you." ”

"Thank you, second uncle." Hearing the key words, Liu Tian suddenly became energetic, and hurriedly thanked him, "But it's not necessary, I'll take a look, I'll just take a look." ”

"Just see how you can do it? At least bring me one away - or I'll smash one immediately, anyway, I can't leave it empty, your father and I are brothers of the same father and mother who grew up together, so we don't have any face? ”

"Then thank the second uncle in advance." Seeing that Liu Zhengde's decision had been made, Liu Tian no longer made unnecessary concessions, and responded - anyway, it seems that something will happen sooner or later, and it will be enough to spend more energy to protect the second uncle's family when the time comes.

…………

Late at night, in a small manor, a man who did not look good was kneeling on one knee, holding the ground with one fist and putting the other on his knee, reporting on today's work.

"You mean you were discovered by a teenager?" The one who spoke was a man hidden in the shadows, his voice was low and slightly hoarse, "I can keenly perceive you in the crowd of people, it seems that the Liu family still has some background." ”

"Because of the defeat of his subordinates, disrupting the master's plan is a crime that deserves death." The man hunched his waist, bowed his head, and pleaded, "Please punish the master!" ”

"Huh." As if sensing the panic of his subordinates, the man gently lifted it up, "Don't worry, rat, even if you are not discovered this time, I will find an opportunity to let them know that there is such a force spying on them secretly." ”

"I know Liu Zhengde as well as I know myself - he will never change his mind because of some possible hidden dangers, he will only prepare more precisely and publicize, so as to catch all the guys who are secretly peeping at them."

"If you don't let Liu Zhengde know, if you don't let him work hard, let him confidently think that everything is foolproof, how can the sweetness of this wine of revenge make me intoxicated?"

Hearing his master's words, the man who was originally panicked suddenly relieved.

"Subordinates obey."

"Stand down, don't worry too much, just don't get caught during this time, rat."

"Yes."

As the words fell, the man with an ordinary appearance quietly left.
