On the second day, the Xiongnu envoy Julong Cave sent the treasure he lost to Liu Jian.

But it is a big emerald night pearl.

Liu Jian was extremely surprised when he saw it at first, such a treasure, Julong Cave actually sent it to him, he really paid for it!

But if you think about it carefully, the current civilization of the Huns is relatively backward, and they are far less coveted for this kind of treasure than the Han people, and the person in the Julong Cave is a biaozi at a glance, and he must know the value of the night pearl in the Han Dynasty.

If he knew that this bead was taken to Liu Hong in the West Garden, he would at least be able to exchange it for a third duke, so he wouldn't give it to Liu Jian easily.

……

The Han troops stationed in Danhan Mountain began to withdraw.

Liu Jian is the same, it's time to return to Zhuo County.

The reason for returning to Zhuojun was not anything else, mainly to wait for Xiaolian's quota to be approved, so that he could go to Luoyang to serve as a Lang official.

Now, for Liu Jian, everything is starting to get on track.

As for Zhang Fei and Han Dang, they have done their best, they have told them everything they should have told, and they have basically taught them what they should have been taught, and how to behave in the border county, the rest depends on themselves.

……

Youzhou is still the same Youzhou as before, and Zhuo County is still the same Zhuo County as before, but Liu Jian is no longer the Liu Jian of the past.

After returning home, when they saw their son coming back, Liu Zhou and Hu both hugged him and cried bitterly.

Eating the baked cakes that his mother gave him, Liu Jian's heart was full of happiness.

On this trip, he also saw a lot of ordinary soldiers of the Han Dynasty, accompanying subordinates, and Hu Nu who were sleeping outside the Saiwai and were in danger.

Compared to them, they are simply not too happy in this chaotic era.

At least, he also has a father, a mother, and a brother who likes clothes.

With his parents here, he still has a place in life.

Liu Zhou, who picks and chooses Liu Jian on weekdays, has changed surprisingly after welcoming his son back this time.

He no longer chattered about Liu Jian, but followed Liu Jian every day, asking his son if he needed this and that, which made Liu Jian uncomfortable.

Didn't these things all be done by my mother? Why has Father become like this now?

But no matter what, this day is really quite happy.

Under the chaos, being able to have such a stable small family is really the greatest blessing in the world for Liu Jian.

But......

And how should we protect this small family from destruction in this troubled world?

This world is like the tide of the turbulent sea, and their Liu family is just a leaf of duckweed in this sea.

This green boat that drifts with the tide may be swept away by the monstrous waves at any time.

After the fierce battle, Liu Jian was more determined in his heart.

If you want to keep your small home from the wind and waves...... It must have the power of Pingshan reclamation!

But if you want to reclaim the sea, you still need to go to the sun to get this sword!

After Liu Jian rested at home for a few days, he asked Liu Zhou to help him make an appointment with the children of the Liu clan in Zhuo County and the old man with a higher reputation at home.

That is, his fellow clansmen.

Liu Zhou was a little confused, so he asked him: "Why do you suddenly invite them to your house when you have nothing to do?" ”

Liu Jian said with a smile: "The world is getting more and more difficult to mix, if you want to live a stable life, the people in the family can no longer work independently, you need to rely on each other to be feasible." ”

Liu Zhou seemed to be a little helpless and said: "Having said that, according to your father's status in the clan, some people are afraid that they will not move, and they may not be able to give me face." ”

Liu Jian said with a smile: "There is a saying, don't be surprised when your father hears it. ”

"What?"

"They may not give you face, but my face, they have to give it now."

When Liu Zhou heard this, his first reaction was why is his son so crazy now?

But then I think about it, there's nothing wrong with it...... Wu'er now has capital, and it's normal to be crazy.

Then go crazy for your father-in-law!

"It's okay, think about it for my father, and find a time to arrange this."

"Father has worked hard, try not to delay too much, before I go to Luoyang."

"It's not hard, by the way, someone from the Lu family came to deliver a letter today, and your teacher invited you to visit his old house in the future, saying that there are important people who want to see you."

Liu Jian was shocked when he heard this: "My teacher didn't go back to Luoyang? But went back to Zhuo County? How didn't my father tell me earlier. ”

Liu Zhou said helplessly: "You still don't know when your teacher came back, will he send someone to tell his father?" ”

Liu Jian thought about it, this is also true.

However, Lu Shi did not return to Luoyang, but returned to Zhuoxian, this is a routine?

Even if it is to take leave with the imperial court, it is more in line with the procedure to return to the court first and report all the Northern Expedition matters to the Son of Heaven, and then return to his hometown, right?

Could it be that here in Zhuoxian, there is something important, or an important person, that forced him Teacher Lu to come back quickly?

……

The next day, Liu Jian packed up and went to Lu Zhi's old house to visit him.

The person who met Liu Jian at the door was Lu Zhi's second son Lu Yin, who had lectured to Liu Jian on behalf of Lu Zhi in Wushi Mountain.

"Senior brother, I haven't seen you for many years, don't come unharmed?" Liu Jian smiled and saluted.

Lu Yin hurriedly helped up Liu Jian, who was giving gifts, looked him up and down, and said with satisfaction: "I haven't seen you for many years, my junior brother has grown into a young talent, thinking about the past in the class in Wushi Mountain, you were still a young man, senior brother remembers that once, you fell asleep in class, and you peed your pants in your dream, and soaked the whole futon you sat down." ”

Speaking of this, Lu Yin touched his beard and laughed, as if recalling that interesting picture back then.

Liu Jian coughed lightly, his voice seemed a little helpless.

"Senior brother, you ...... The one he said was the old man of the Niyang Wang family, the fat boy who was two years younger than me. ”

Good guy, do you still recognize me? Is it true or false?

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Lu Yin seemed to be choking, and coughed vigorously.

Then, seeing that his face was a little embarrassed, he looked at Liu Jian with a smile and said, "Senior brother's memory is really good, hehe, hehehe......"

"Hahaha!" Liu Jian also smiled dryly with Lu Yin.

He sighed secretly in his heart, and he didn't blame Lu Yin for remembering that he was wrong, the students of the Wushi Mountain had not three thousand but two thousand for several years, and there were countless scattered passers-by, Lu Yin could at least roughly remember the scriptures he went to learn when he was the year of the general horn, which was already very good.

As for whether it is a string of people.

Forget it, don't pursue it, just pee your pants and pee your pants.

After the greetings, Lu Yin led Liu Jian towards the inner house.

On the way, Liu Jian asked Lu Yindao: "Senior brother, this time Shizun returned to the Han Realm from Northern Xinjiang, did he return to Zhuo County after His Majesty Yuming in Luoyang, or did he return directly to Zhuo County?" ”

When Lu Yin heard this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"I heard my father say, this time in Mobei, it is quite easy to use you to join the army, whether it is the affairs of the court or the affairs of Xianbei, you can see it thoroughly, when I see it today, what Yan Jun said is really true."

Liu Jian was stunned when he heard this.

What did I say? You praise me like that?

Lu Yin continued with a smile: "My father did not return to Luoyang this time, but directly took leave from the Son of Heaven and returned to Zhuo County, and I happened to go back to my hometown to visit relatives, but I also happened to meet my father here. ”

Liu Jian nodded abruptly when he heard this.

It seems that in Zhuo County, there are indeed some important people or important things that involve Lu Zhi.

But what is it?

After a while, the two of them came to the main hall.

And Lu Zhi was sitting on the main seat, and there were two people on his side, one old and the other young, both of whom were dressed in cloth and linen, and they were dressed in old clothes.

At first glance, they are not wealthy nobles, but the faces of the two people are clean, their beards are neatly tied, and their appearance is quite exquisite.

Seeing Liu Jian come in, a smile appeared on Lu Zhi's face.

He turned his head to the older man next to him: "Brother Xian, this person is my little disciple, this time he broke Xianbei outside the Saiwai and made great contributions to the Han Dynasty." ”

The old man looked at Liu Jian with a smile, the corners of his mouth were smiling, and his demeanor was gentle, which made people feel very kind.

Liu Jian first met Lu Zhi, and then met the two of them.

The old man was very polite, he stood up, and returned a salute to Liu Jian very solemnly, and then suddenly asked: "Xiaoyou is under the Zigan Sect, how many years have you studied in the past?" ”

Liu Jian was stunned when he heard this: "Less than two months." ”

"In this way, I am afraid that I have not learned all his ability, it is a long way to cultivate, only two months to teach knowledge, how can you be a teacher for life? There must be my teacher in the threesome, why not apprentice more and broaden the door, so it will be of great benefit to your future, and your Lu master will be broad-minded, and he will not think that he is angry. ”

This question is somewhat out of place, after all, someone's teacher is sitting next to him, you ask like this, I can't answer well, isn't this becoming a sow of discord?

Liu Jian glanced at Lu Zhi with a little surprise, but found that Teacher Lu was not angry, just sitting there calmly, brushing his beard, half-blind eyes, as if the things in front of him had nothing to do with him at all.

Looking at the question of this elder, Lu Zhi seemed to know it in his heart.
