The main hall of the inner courtyard of Liu Mansion.
Liu Zhi'an looked at the calm expressions of his younger sister and his eldest son who had returned together, as if he was not at all curious about how the two aunt and nephew got together.
Liu Mingzhi and Liu Ying sat down respectively. Liu Mingzhi took a sip of tea to rinse his mouth, and told Liu Zhian, who was enjoying the tea, that he might go to Northern Xinjiang immediately.
As expected, Liu Zhi'an looked stunned: "Why are you so fast? At least wait until your mother comes back from Donghai Province and meet her before talking about returning to Northern Xinjiang!"
Thinking of his mother's kind and doting attitude toward him, Liu Mingzhi shook his head regretfully.
"The situation is urgent. I don't know how long it will take for my mother to return home. I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for her to come back.
There are still many days to come, and it’s not like we won’t see her again. It won’t be too late for me to bring my wife and children back to reunite with my mother next time.”
"Well...well, if you really can't wait to return to the North, I won't force you to stay. Your future is the most important, and everything else is small.
Is it confirmed whether we will leave today or tomorrow?"
"I just came back to see if there is anything you need help with! If so, I will postpone it for another day. It won't be too late to set off tomorrow. If not, you can set off today."
As Liu Mingzhi spoke, he looked at the sky outside the hall.
"We set off today. We can still stop in Mingzhou before dark, so we won't have to sleep in the wilderness."
"Is there anything I need your help for? I don't know anything about the business of the business, so I can't be of much help. If I find you through a backdoor, all your rights and opportunities in the court will be gone.
If you are in a hurry, go ahead. If you still have money, if you are short of money to spend, I will give you another thirty to fifty thousand taels."
"Come on, just keep the money in your hand for Mingjie. You've filled too many holes in my place, it's time."
"Don't forget it. If you are in urgent need of money and you don't have time to send a message to me, you can go directly to the Liu Family Trading Company in Huangzhou Prefecture in the North to find the shopkeeper named Liang. He has been in charge of the Western Regions Caravan and has a rich bank account.
, you can use your jade pendant to collect three hundred thousand taels of silver for emergencies."
"This... ok, I know, I hope this day won't happen.
By the way, old man, you have been living in the capital for so many years, although you occasionally returned to Jiangnan to stay for more than a month.
But we are always in Jiangnan. You and my father-in-law Qi Run must not have caught up with each other for a long time. If you are really not busy with things in the capital, you can go back to Jiangnan.
I also want to keep in touch with my parents and fellow villagers whom I haven’t seen for many years!”
Liu Zhi'an held the tea lid and gently fiddled with the tea leaves on the tea. He looked at the cheerful Mr. Liu with a faint look, and raised a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
"knew.
I have nothing to worry about at home.
There are places in this world that I might not be able to go to if I want to, but the world is so big that if I want to go, no one can block my way.
You don't have to worry about the safety of me, your mother, Xuan'er and Mingjie all the time. Just take good care of yourself and the whole family.
If you are my grandson, granddaughter bumps into something, or your daughter-in-law is injured in some way, I will skin you."
Sensing the old man's thoughtful gaze, Liu Mingzhi felt a sudden change in his heart.
There is something in the old man's words.
"Don't worry, I don't need you to worry about my young master's wife and children."
"These are words to cheer up, and are spoken like a manly man. I hope you won't break your promise!"
"Don't you understand me, young master? When have you ever said such big things? Are you sure you are not busy and need my help? Opportunities are rare. Although I am not in the court, but let me tell you, there is no civil and military person in the court who dares not to give it."
I have three thin noodles.
If you don't think about it carefully, there won't be this shop after passing this village."
"If you want to leave, just get out of here. It's enough for me to see your face.
On the other hand, you are not going to let me set up a table for you to practice wine? I still don’t care before the wine and food cost a few taels of silver."
Young Master Liu stood up carelessly and stretched his body: "I don't have this luxury anymore. Come on, please take care of yourself.
There is no need to send him off, I know the way."
"Xiao Mingming!"
Seeing Young Master Liu getting up, Liu Ying hurriedly stood up, pulled Liu Mingzhi towards a corner, took out the Killing Skeleton Order from her arms again and stuffed it into Young Master Liu's hand.
"Little enemy, you forgot to bring your sister's gift."
Liu Mingzhi weighed the token in his hand, thought for a while and returned it to Liu Ying.
"Auntie, you should keep the three thousand shadows for self-defense!
Alas, although the capital city is prosperous and prosperous, it is indeed the largest place of right and wrong in the world.
You need this token more than I do."
"My little friend, you need me more than your sister. My sister is the general's wife. Who can do anything to my sister in the general's mansion! The Northland is located on the border of the three countries, and the situation is complicated. More helpers will give you a better chance of winning.
Don't let anything happen to you, otherwise who will my sister torture?
Put it away quickly!”
Liu Mingzhi directly stuffed the token into Liu Ying's sleeve: "Auntie, you can't expect me to order it. I really don't need this token, so you'd better put it away.
There are suddenly more experts in Northern Xinjiang, which will confuse others, which will not be good for children to govern the Northern Territory.
I appreciate your kindness, but I really don’t need this token."
"Well... okay, sister will keep it for you first. Once you need it, you must send the letter to sister in time, you know?"
A good man has three gangs, and a tiger cannot hold off a pack of wolves. You must assess the situation and never act according to your temper."
Liu Mingzhi nodded hurriedly and raised his hand to tidy up Liu Ying's somewhat disheveled hair: "Yes, yes, my child must remember my aunt's teachings!
Auntie, if Beijing...is nothing, the Northland is well-governed by children, the people have enough food and clothing, and the Yingzhou Palace welcomes auntie at any time."
Liu Ying pushed Young Master Liu to the top of her mountain: "Hey, my little enemy sister really can't let you go!
It’s only been a few days, and you haven’t given my sister enough time. You’re about to leave. What will you do if your sister is unbearably lonely in the future?”
"Uh huh... huh huh..."
Young Master Liu struggled to get out of Liu Ying's warm and fragrant arms. He looked helplessly at the pitiful Liu Ying and then turned to look at Liu Zhi'an.
"Old man, my aunt has finally come back. Don't forget to entertain her with good wine and good food. I will take my leave now. Let's meet again someday and have a nice drink."
"Go away! Leave early and I will be clean."
The more we talk, the harder it becomes to say goodbye.
Liu Mingzhi tightened the baggage on his shoulders, looked at Liu Ying's charming reddish eyes, smiled foolishly, and hurried out the door without looking back.
"Xiao Mingming, take care!"
Listening to his aunt's farewell words, Liu Mingzhi walked faster.
Liu Zhi'an put down his tea cup and stood in the hall like Liu Ying, watching Young Master Liu's retreating back, his eyes full of reluctance.
"Xiao Mingming is in a hurry to go back. Is that what he needs to do?"
Liu Zhi'an looked at Liu Ying, who had extremely worried eyes, and shook his head silently: "This kid has been cautious all his life. He will not take that step and risk the world's disapproval."
"Then why is he in such a hurry to go back?"
"This kid always likes to be cautious when doing things. I'm afraid his chess moves will be put to death before he can survive."
"Obviously the odds of winning are good now, why do you think Xiao Mingming still dares not face himself?"
Liu Zhi'an smiled meaningfully: "A vision, a vision that no one in the world understands.
His heart is so big that ordinary people cannot understand his difficulties and difficulties.
If a person has no long-term worries, he must have immediate worries!"
Liu Ying looked at Liu Zhi'an who was playing riddles, her eyebrows raised: "Do you understand? Tell me!"
"Don't say it, don't say it!
I don’t dare to make any rash judgments at this time. The chess game is full of twists and turns.
I have made a conclusion here, and things have suddenly changed. Isn’t it embarrassing for me!”
Liu Ying rolled her eyes at Liu Zhi'an angrily: "If you don't understand, you just don't understand. I'm not laughing at you. Why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf!"
"Xiaoying."
Liu Ying glanced at Liu Zhi'an lightly: "If you have something to say and something to say, why are you pretending to be serious? It's like you are sick!"
Liu Zhian's mouth twitched and he rubbed his nose.
"Then what... uh... It's okay for you to mess around with the gangsters and make some small jokes, but don't be serious when your head gets hot.
.
You are a married woman and his aunt.
Don't be serious about it, you'll end up in a pig cage.
He is still a child!"
Liu Ying looked at Liu Zhi'an, who had a tangled expression on her face. Her charming face had changed dramatically, and she took a few deep breaths.
Liu Ying picked up the bamboo basket on the side, picked up the radish that was broken into two pieces, and threw it at Liu Zhi'an, who had already realized that something was wrong and ran towards the inner courtyard.
"Liu Zhian, you old bastard, why don't you die!"
"I...I...I'm just giving you a heads up. You've done so many weird things because of your hot head!"
"Fuck your mother...well...fuck your mother-in-law's legs, they're really crooked at the top and bottom, and I almost got mad.
I'm gone, be careful when you go out to steal sex. If my sister-in-law finds out, you will suffer."
Liu Zhi'an looked at Liu Ying's handsome figure, caressing his chest and sighed.
"Fortunately, okay, it seems that Xiaoying still doesn't know about this incident between me and his close friend Mrs. Luo, otherwise she would be nagging her endlessly."
At the north gate of the capital, Liu Mingzhi glanced at Ren Qingrui, who was wearing a bamboo hat on one side of his head and had not spoken to him since leaving the restaurant. He pressed his nose angrily, knowing that Ren Qingrui was still worried about the incident not long ago.
I really didn't mean to do it, otherwise there would have been so many opportunities for a man and a woman alone on the way back to Beijing. If I really had any evil thoughts about this girl, I would have done it long ago, so why wait until today.
Turning around and looking towards the majestic city wall, his eyes gradually became complicated.
What will your appearance be and what will your identity be when you come back next time?
"drive!"
Ren Qingrui looked at Mr. Liu who was riding away, and looked back at the capital with his bright eyes under the veil.
Finally, I had the opportunity to go to Beijing to investigate the whereabouts of my parents. Unexpectedly, not only did I find nothing, but I was also taken advantage of by Da Guoguo unintentionally.
What a big loss.
With a faint sigh, Ren Qingrui also chased after him.
I can't survive alone in the capital, a land of right and wrong, so what can I do if I don't leave!
"drive!"
In the prince's old residence, the empress dowager Chen Jie looked at the letter sent to her by Gao Jin with complicated eyes.
After lighting the letter, Chen Jie's mind was filled with the caring words contained in the letter.
Thinking of her identity, Chen Jie looked out the window blankly.
