When Liu Yu heard this, he knew that the person who came was not trivial, so he hurriedly followed the official to the courtyard.

From a distance, he saw the two visitors standing alone in the middle of the courtyard. coincided with the setting sun, stretching the shadows of the two for a long time.

One of them was a burly man, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and the other was thin and old, with a slightly hunched back, and looked quite old.

At that time, the officials of Dali Temple were vigilant against these two people who suddenly appeared inexplicably, and they held water and fire sticks one by one, and surrounded the two people in the center of the field from a distance, for fear that the two would act rashly.

Although the two visitors were masked, Liu Yu still faintly felt that their figures were extremely familiar, and his heart involuntarily thumped, thinking, "Who are they, how can I feel like this?"

He walked briskly in the direction of the crowd, refusing to slow down.

When everyone saw Lord Zhengqing coming, they hurriedly moved out of the way.

Liu Yu came to the two of them, gave a slight salute, "Dare to ask the two ......"

"Senior brother, don't come to harm!" The burly masked man didn't wait for Liu Yu to finish speaking, and took off the mask first, and it turned out to be Zhu Wen.

The corners of Zhu Wen's mouth inexplicably rippled with a smug smile, and he looked at his junior brother happily.

"Senior brother, you ......" Liu Yu was surprised.

However, before he could finish his sentence, his throat choked again.

The old man standing beside Zhu Wen silently took off his mask, revealing a clear face, with a gray beard and dense crow's feet at the corners of his eyes, which was obviously weathered.

Liu Yu felt two hot currents rushing to the corners of his eyes, and he forcibly held back, refusing to let even a single tear flow out.

"Dad, how are you doing all these years?"

"Very well, you're all older. ”

Old Scholar Liu stretched out his thin right hand and gently patted Liu Yu's shoulder, his fingers trembled, and the corners of his eyes were slightly red.

The two taciturn men held tears in their hearts, let thousands of emotions churn in their chests, and just spoke lightly.

Of course, Liu Lao Scholar will not cry, no matter how the world changes, he has never given up his arrogance and demeanor as a scholar.

He was poisoned and dying, and later went to Guangzhou, where he experienced the tragedy of separation between husband and wife. He has survived these difficult moments, and now that he finally meets his son, what is there to cry about?

Liu Yu can't cry, and nine years later, he still remembers that his father once said, "A gentleman is as quiet as water." The son is an extension of the father's dream. If the father is a mountain, then the son should be a mountain higher than the mountain.

He took his father's thin, rough hand and said something lightly, first talking about his experience in Mobei a few years ago, and then talking about the recent changes in the situation in Chang'an City.

Old scholar Liu shook his beard, and from time to time quoted scriptures and classics to give his son instructions.

Zhu Wen stood aside with a smile, quietly looking at the father and son who had been reunited for a long time, and did not speak.

Liu Yu looked at him excitedly, "Senior brother, how did you find my father?"

Zhu Wen embarrassedly touched the back of his head with his big hand, "There are a lot of people under my command, so I ordered two thousand people, divided them into teams, and went to various states and counties to find the whereabouts of the master, but I didn't really find it." I thought that it was not safe in the camp of the righteous army, so I sent Master to you. ”

Liu Yu nodded, he understood Zhu Wen's difficulties. He had already heard people say that that Huang Chao hated Confucianism very much because he had failed the imperial examination several times, and he would kill every time he saw it, and it was indeed very dangerous to let his father stay with his senior brother.

Old Scholar Liu stepped forward and hugged Zhu Wen and Liu Yu together, "If there is chaos today, the world will always be mourned." I've seen a lot of fratricidal incidents along the way, and you brothers and sisters are all my dearest and loved ones, so you must be sincerely united, and you must not fight among yourself, understand?"

When it comes to excitement, "Analects", "Shangshu", "University" and so on come out one after another.

Liu Yu thought that he would be disgusted like when he was a child, but at this moment he felt very pleasant.

Father is still the father of nine years ago, and he is no longer the same person he was nine years ago.

He was amazed to find that he could accept these dogmas from the bottom of his heart.

"Do it when you know you can't do it!"

"Chaowen said, it's okay to die at night!"

"Although there are tens of millions of people, I will go!"

Although the sages passed away, the words left behind were sonorous, and the words were like iron, revealing great courage and wisdom.

Old Scholar Liu was tired of speaking, and he couldn't help coughing. The wind and frost of the troubled times have already tortured this frail old man all over his body.

Zhu Wen hurriedly hugged Old Scholar Liu and asked with concern: "Master, is your old man okay! Senior brother, aren't you superb in medical skills, show it to Master." ”

Zhu Wen carefully helped the master aside, "Master, don't worry. Although my brother and I serve our own masters, we will never kill each other. As long as I live for one day, I will never disobey you!"

Old Scholar Liu said with difficulty: "Okay...... Good!"

Liu Yu hurriedly took the pulse for his father, he frowned slightly, only to feel that the pulse was weak and stagnant, "My father should be extremely tired, his qi and blood are dry, and at the same time he feels the wind and cold, so he needs to rest." ”

He beckoned two servants to come, "Go and open my room and make a fire in it!"

The two servants hurriedly agreed and went to the wings.

Seeing this, Si Cheng hurriedly stepped forward to ask for instructions, "My lord, do you have anything to tell me?"

Liu Yu nodded slightly, "You are capable, just go to the pharmacy for me." ”

He dictated the names and dosages of more than a dozen medicines, and asked Sicheng to write them down one by one. After the temple was familiar with it, he hurried out of the door and went to the street.

Together with his senior brother Zhu Wen, Liu Yu helped his father through the gravel path under the willow tree to the outside of the wing.

Two officials had already lit a fire and greeted them outside the gate.

With the support of his son and apprentice, Old Scholar Zhu stepped into the threshold tremblingly. He only felt a warm wind rushing towards him, and the sleepiness that had accumulated in his body for months suddenly burst out at this moment. He felt his body sway, barely on his feet.

He took one step to the east, one step to the west, and came to the couch in a daze, his body tilted, and the sky swirled, and then he lost consciousness.

......

Seeing that his father was already asleep, and the temple who bought the medicine had not yet returned, Liu Yu quietly closed the door and walked with his senior brother Zhu Wen under the willow tree in the courtyard.

"Senior brother, Master misses his wife very much, and he just shouted his wife's name in his sleep, and I am really sad after hearing it. Zhu Wen looked solemn.

"My mother is in Meizhen, and when the matter in Chang'an is over, I will find a way to take her over and reunite with my father. Liu Yu bit his lip vigorously.

He knew in his heart that his uncle was not only superb in martial arts, but also difficult to deal with. But in any case, this person should not break up his father and mother. For that alone, he would fight this man to the end.

Zhu Wen sighed softly, "If the junior brother agrees, I am willing to go to Meizhen with you to meet the senior sister." ”

Liu Yu nodded, "Thanks to Senior Brother for taking care of me all the time, Senior Brother is grateful to you, if you have any requirements, except for those related to Chang'an City, I will promise you." “

Zhu Wen laughed after hearing this, "Really, I have one, although it is related to Chang'an City, I don't embarrass you." ”

He leaned into Liu Yu's ear and said softly: "I want to help the people in Chang'an City, one million loads of food, is it enough?"

"A million quintals?" Liu Yu was taken aback, "With so much food, if Huang Chao and Wang Xianzhi knew about it, wouldn't they kill you!"

Zhu Wen disagreed, "If Fu Lingyun harmed the people with poison in Cao Song Temple, if I turn a blind eye, wouldn't I be living up to Master's teachings since childhood! If the food arrives, Fu Lingyun's trick will naturally be shattered." ”

He squatted down and drew on the dirt with his fingers, "I will find a way to dig a tunnel here in the city wall in the name of siege, and secretly bring in food from here, and then the junior brother will remember to pick me up." ”

Liu Yu looked at Zhu Wen's serious appearance and couldn't help but smile, "Senior brother, if it weren't for your liking to suck human blood, I would almost think you would be a good person!"

When Zhu Wen heard this, he was obviously a little unhappy, and his face turned pale, "Senior brother, you look down on me, I follow my master's teachings, I have always been sympathetic to the people, and I don't do unrighteous things." Those souls under my hands, they are either enemies of me, or they have violated military orders, or they have bullied the people, I have no regrets about killing them, I only hate to kill less!"

He hugged his fists and said goodbye to Liu Yu, "There is still something in my military camp, please take care of my master." As for the food, if you don't believe me, send someone to wait at the entrance of the tunnel. If I don't send in food, you will pour water into the tunnel, and the siege will naturally be broken. ”

Liu Yu smiled awkwardly and said, "Senior brother's words, I must keep them in my heart." ”

He sighed softly, the years not only erased his childlike innocence, but also seemed to rob him of his ability to trust others.

Maybe what the senior brother wants is not to win through the gate of Chang'an, but to win the hearts of the people in the city. He vaguely felt that his senior brother had lofty ambitions, and it seemed that he was gradually unwilling to live under others.

However, despite his kind words and persuasions, Zhu Wen seemed to have been hurt by his words, and refused to stay for a moment, leaving only the sentence "take care of Master", and jumped onto the wall.

Zhu Wen stood on the wall, thought for a while, and turned around and said, "Senior brother, although I am like a murderer, I have never thought of being your enemy. The world is impermanent, say goodbye today, I don't know what it will be like when we say goodbye, please take care!"

"Take care!" Liu Yu nodded slowly.
