The sun is warm, under the ancient pavilion.

Du Bixing, dressed in a black robe and wearing a black hat, calmly boiled tea.

The cold wind was covered by a thick green curtain on all sides.

Hurried footsteps sounded outside the pavilion.

Immediately, Du Liu, dressed in a white moire silk robe, wearing a black hat, and a man's attire, came from outside, his face anxious.

"Be steady." Du Bixing's calm voice sounded, and the movements in his hands were not chaotic at all.

"Father." Du Liu stood still in front of the pavilion, and his slender figure was extraordinarily elegant.

"What's going on?" Du Bixing still didn't look up.

Du Liu froze and arched his hand: "Father, just now, there was news in the clan that the superintendent was preparing to impeach his father for personal reasons, regardless of government affairs, lingering in Chang'an, and his intentions were secretive, and the clan had temporarily suppressed the impeachment, but it would not be too long. ”

"The King of Nanchang's means are rising." Du Bixing finally raised his head, sighed lightly, and said: "When he was in Wuzhou, he still gave others a chance to breathe, but now, almost as soon as he decided, the means have come one after another. ”

"Yesterday, the king of Nanchang took his brother to see the prince, the clan was happy, but he didn't care much about the brother's performance in front of the prince was not good, today, the rumors of the cousin's unbearable have been flying all over the sky, and the father was also impeached, the king of Nanchang was too ruthless, and his father had been taking care of his old department in Wuzhou." There was a hint of resentment in Du Liu's eyes.

"Don't say this again, even if the king of Nanchang has some old departments in Wuzhou, he has never asked others to take care of it; And it is the king's envoy who has always taken care of them, not the father. Du Bixing shook his head and sighed lightly: "As for today's events, it was foreseeable that the clan was calculating the king of Nanchang, and they thought that the king of Nanchang couldn't see through it." ”

Du Bixing couldn't help sneering, there was no one in the center of the clan, and he didn't have much contact with the king of Nanchang, thinking that he was just a young man with some ability.

Who knows, the methods of the king of Nanchang are ruthless and terrifying.

"Then what to do, we can ignore the affairs of the clan brother, but if the father is impeached......" Du Liu's face was solemn and terrifying.

Du Bixing was forced to retire from illness for more than 20 years, and finally re-emerged with the help of the power of the king of Nanchang.

"It would be a good thing if he could be impeached first." Du Bixing sighed lightly, looked at the door that suddenly became noisy in the distance, and said softly: "This time, the clan is plotting against Princess Shang, and if it succeeds, it will be suppressed, and if it fails, it will be immediately suppressed by other competing families, and at that time, the end may be worse than impeachment." ”

Shaking his head, Du Bixing retracted his gaze and looked at Du Liu and said, "You can avoid it, your second uncle is here, I'm afraid he already knows about today's events." ”

"Father, it's better to find the king of Nanchang again." Du Liu lowered his body and said worriedly: "Since it is arranged by the king of Nanchang, he must have a way to solve it." ”

"Solve something, he can't wait to leave Wuzhou for his father now." Du Bixing waved his hand indifferently and said, "Okay, you go and get busy, and see the second uncle for your father." ”

"Yes!" Du Liu turned his head to look at the noise that was getting closer and closer, sighed softly in his heart, and turned to leave.

……

On the Qujiang River, a large painting boat slowly moves forward.

It was a rare warm day, although it was slightly cold, but there was no wind.

Li Xuan sat in the center of the painting boat, holding "Spring and Autumn" in her hand.

The flames were churning in the furnace ahead, and the wives and concubines and children were constantly frolicking.

"Husband!" The plump figure of the koji bean snuggled into Li Xuan's arms, and next to her was her son Li Zhiyou, who was held by the nurse.

"Are you happy?" Li Xuan put down "Spring and Autumn" and looked at the entire cabin.

Liu Jinyu, Pei Shitong, and Liu Shubi are all there.

Li Jinxia, Li Zhizhao, Li Zhiming, and Li Zhichang were also playing in the company of maids and mothers.

Winter time is hard to come by.

Or play in Qujiang.

"Hmm!" Koji Dou'er gently buried herself in Li Xuan's arms and murmured, "Thank you, husband." ”

Koji Dou'er is a little more active, but after she became pregnant, she stayed at home for most of the year and basically didn't go out.

originally thought that when Li Zhiyou was young, she might find it more difficult to go out, but she didn't expect Li Xuan to promise her that after the child was full moon, she would come out to visit Qujiang.

In the winter, Li Xuan prepared everything and brought several children and wives and concubines on the boat.

That is, in the past few days, the weather has not been very cold.

If after a while, the river freezes, and they just can't figure it out.

"In another two years, you and your children will be able to go to Changzhou with your husband, and when the time comes, Qinghai Lake, Wuhai, Tongtian River, play casually, if your husband can lay some logic, and then send Tianzhu, we may be able to go to the beach to see." Li Xuan's eyes looked in the direction of Luo, his eyes full of expectation.

"But eldest sister." Koji Dou'er looked at Liu Jinyu with some concern.

Li Xuan served as the governor of the capital, and it was difficult for Liu Jinyu to get out of the sight of the emperor, including her eldest son Li Zhizhao.

"In a few years, when the foreign office for the husband is over, we will find an opportunity to go to Jiangnan to have a good time." Li Xuan patted Koji Dou'er on the shoulder.

Koji Dou'er responded softly, leaning on Li Xuan's arms and not speaking.

Li Xuan's eyes raised and looked at Liu Jinyu, Liu Jinyu turned around and looked at Li Xuan gently.

Husband and wife look at each other, and everything is silent.

There is another reason why Liu Jinyu does not leave Chang'an easily, that is, her grandfather Liu Renliang.

Liu Renliang is not young, and in the past two years, all the ministers have retired from illness, and Liu Jinyu is worried that Liu Renliang will also have a case.

……

The black carriage slowly drove down from the painting boat, and Li Xuan led people down from the boat.

In order to prevent his three young sons from catching a cold, Li Xuan almost let them sit in the carriage that had been renovated a long time ago in the inner courtyard of the house, and then drove all the way to Qujiang.

The painting boat on the Qujiang River has been greatly changed, and the carriage can be driven directly up and directly into the cabin.

Li Xuan had just turned over and got on the horse, Li Zhu had already leaned over and arched his hand: "Lord Wang, Miss Du has arrived." ”

"Huh?" Li Xuan nodded calmly, Du Liu came over at this time, he was not surprised.

Glancing up into the distance.

In the winter time, there were few cruise ships on the Qujiang River, and there were not many pedestrians on the shore, plus Li Xuan sent people to deliberately blockade it, and for a while, no one snooped on anything.

But in the distance, there are still some Wannian County catchers, and Jin Wuwei patrolling the streets is surrounding.

Although it was all arranged by Li Xuan, it was inevitable that there would be people with secret guards among them.

"Let her go to the carriage in the back, and prepare another carriage in front of her outside of the East City." Li Xuan raised his head and made arrangements.

Li Zhu gave up his hand, and then walked quickly away from Du Liu under the tree not far away.

Soon, Du Liu was invited into a carriage.

She waited calmly, and sure enough, it didn't take long for Li Xuan, who was dressed in a purple robe, to sit in.

"Lord Wang." Without waiting for Li Xuan to sit down, Du Liu directly arched his hand, stared at him, and said earnestly: "Please also ask the prince to look at the past and let his father go?" ”

"Let your father go, Sister Xian, where did you start with this?" Li Xuan's face was uncertain.

The wheels sounded softly, Du Liu lowered her head, and she said softly: "There are already people in Yushitai who impeach my father, saying that he is concerned about his personal feelings, ignores government affairs, lingers in Chang'an, and has secret intentions. ”

"If this king remembers correctly, Du Changshi should have told Wang Tingshi to leave when he left Wuzhou, so what can others say?" Li Xuan couldn't help frowning, as if she felt that this matter was a bit of a fuss.

"Although my father took a leave of absence, the reason was actually far-fetched, and he stayed for a long time." Du Liu shook his head with an ugly face.

Du Bixing's matter, if no one is held accountable, it is not a matter at all.

But if someone below investigates it, and someone above grabs the blame, then even he will have a lot of trouble.

Especially if this matter falls in the eyes of Empress Wu, Du Bixing's trouble will be even greater.

"In that case, then why don't you go back immediately, as long as he goes back, there will be nothing." Li Xuan leaned back slightly, and looked at Du Liu calmly.

Although Du Liu was wearing a white moire robe and dressed as a man, her chest was bulging, and she knew that she was a woman at a glance.

In addition, she has moth eyebrows and a picturesque eyebrow, and she knows at a glance that she is a beauty like flowers and jade.

Li Xuan's faint words, under the gaze, Du Liu couldn't help but shrink back.

Of course, she knew that for Du Bixing, the best way now was to leave Chang'an and return to Wuzhou as soon as possible.

But Du Bixing walked by, perhaps more accurately, because his family did not let him go.

Today's Du family, the entire family plus a piece, is only three assassins, although there is still a young secretary in the court, but they are not easy to move.

In this case, Du Bixing, who has a long history and has some connections with Li Xuan, is the best candidate for the event.

He can participate in a lot of things on the table.

"Please also ask the prince, look at the love of Wuzhou, and let my father go." Du Liu lowered his head in a low voice, his face sad.

"Love?" Li Xuan leaned forward slightly, looked at Du Liu's fair and charming face closely, and said softly: "This king doesn't remember any personal affairs with you?" ”

Du Liu was stunned and bowed his head.

The moment he lowered his head, his slender figure pulled out a wonderful arc, which was extremely seductive, and people couldn't help but want to slap him hard.

"Or is it that this king was once drunk and can't remember what happened." Li Xuan smiled rather than smiled, and one hand gently stroked Du Liu's smooth jaw.

Du Liu shuddered coldly, Li Xuan suddenly laughed, and then leaned into her ear and said, "But this king sees, you are still a virgin now, or ......"

"Poof!"

Du Liu pressed his hands on the floor of the carriage, and the whole person subconsciously took several steps back.

When she raised her head in horror, she found that Li Xuan was already sitting upright, sitting there indifferently.

"Your matter, since I knew that you were related to the Liu family, this king has never taken care of it again, what, have you forgotten?" Li Xuan's face was cold, and his voice was even colder.

Du Liu was stunned for a moment, and then immediately remembered that when she was first in Dongyang, her cousin Huang Ziliu originally wanted to take refuge under Li Xuan and make some contributions, but she didn't expect that Li Xuan didn't use him at all, and it turned out that the root was here.

"Lord, my father's ......" Du Liu slowly stepped forward again, bowed down with a sad face, and said, "My father is really because of the family this time......

"Because of the family, he came to design and calculate the king." Li Xuan sneered at the corner of his mouth, looked at Du Liu and said: "Pull this king into the water and bear the anger of the queen of heaven for you, this hand is indeed very good, but don't forget, if you calculate others, you must be prepared to bear the price of being eaten by others." ”

Du Liu bit her lip stubbornly, and finally she spoke: "Du Liu is willing to pay this price." ”

As soon as Du Liu finished speaking, a smiling face had already met her eyes, and she subconsciously stepped back, but forcibly stopped.

On the other side, Li Xuan's brows were already furrowed fiercely: "You are really, why, aren't you engaged?" ”

Du Liu lowered his head again and said helplessly: "He went to Hebei." ”

He, Huang Ziliu.

Huang Ziliu went to Hebei and was transferred to Hebei.

Li Xuan thought about all this in an instant, nodded abruptly and said, "He also has something to do with this matter?" ”

Du Liu bowed his head and was silent.
