Mrs. Song gently tugged on Song Yu's sleeves, signaling him to stop acting like an official. This was his nephew and not an outsider. It was time for Liu Ming to stand up.
Song Yu looked at Liu Mingzhi quietly: "The naughty boy back then has become a talented person now and is much more stable. Please get up and sit down."
"My nephew thanks my uncle."
"Madam, please order some good wine and food to prepare for Zhi'er."
Mrs. Song first looked at Liu Mingzhi curiously, then went to the back hall with a chuckle.
"If you two don't go help your mother, what are you doing here? Show your face!"
Song Yun and Song Lei stuck out their tongues with their heads down, and followed Mrs. Song to the back hall.
Song Yu's eyes never left Liu Ming's figure while holding the tea cup, which made Liu Mingzhi feel uncomfortable. He didn't know what uncle Song Yu meant. We are not a young girl in our twenties and eighties. What do you mean by staring at me all the time?
.
Liu Mingzhi pretended to glance at his clothes casually. They were clean and there was nothing out of the ordinary. Could it be that there was something dirty on his face?
Subconsciously stroking his face, there was nothing but a little stubble. He really couldn't stand the look in Song Yu's eyes: "Uncle"
Song Yu put down his teacup and sighed: "Liu Dadan, Liu Jieyuan, how should I call you?"
Liu Mingzhi looked at Song Yu blankly, not knowing what he meant: "Uncle, my nephew Liu Jieyuan understands that with your relationship, he must have known that my nephew is Jieyuan who took the exam in Qiuwei of Jiangnan. This little nephew
My nephew is not surprised, but it’s not clear that Liu boldly called me my nephew. Where did it come from? My nephew doesn’t seem to have this nickname."
Song Yu looked at Liu Mingzhi's expression strangely, and saw that his expression was sincere, but it didn't look like he was faking it: "In one move, the favor order was issued to solve the feudal issues of the Dulu tribe and the Shibi tribe. It was just a few imperial edicts and a big seal.
Not only did he completely resolve the conflict between the imperial court and the grassland tribes, but it also caused the grassland tribes to fall into disputes for power. It solved the court's difficulties and made the enemies have no time to take care of themselves. Liu Mingzhi, Liu Mingzhi, I haven't seen you for a few years, you are really
It really impressed me, uncle!"
"Misunderstanding, that's just a misunderstanding. My nephew didn't expect that the person who went to Dangyang Academy to ask the mountain chief for advice was actually that person." Liu Mingzhi pointed to the sky as he spoke: "Then something unexpected happened.
The nephew was forced to come up with such a temporary solution. He did not expect that it would cause such a big reaction. If it weren't for my uncle, you would have written a letter to my father explaining the situation in detail.
, my nephew has been kept in the dark, not knowing that he has inadvertently caused such a big chain reaction."
"In order to prevent the thousands of good horses from being smashed in the hands of Yangzhou Racecourse in the south of the Yangtze River, horseshoes were invented. Not only did the thousands of good horses not be smashed in the hands, but the Dalong bus was launched, which became popular in Jiangnan, Yangzhou, and Hangzhou.
, Suzhou, and Qianzhou are all monopolized by Dalong Bus. More than a thousand good horses that were about to be smashed into the hands happened to be played by your boy, and they became prosperous. Not only did they not lose money, but they actually made a fortune in a year.
The profit from the Liu family's business is no less than five hundred thousand taels. This is just a conservative estimate from the Ministry of Accounts. I think it will be much more. Your father did not have such ability at your age."
"Accidents are all accidents. My nephew was also chased by his father. Now that he has accepted this mess, he can't just let them go to waste."
"Horseshoes only cost 20 cents, but they can make a good horse gallop for five more years. The horseshoes jointly made by the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Finance have been installed on all the war horses in the twelve frontier prefectures. According to a rough estimate, they actually saved the national treasury.
Eight million taels of silver, the final calculation turned out to be a saving of 12 million taels of silver. The annual tax revenue of the national treasury is only more than 20 million taels. Every year, just the maintenance of war horses consumes half of the inventory, causing the Minister of Household Affairs to
I am admonishing you every day in front of your majesty, asking for an official position as a member of the household department for you, a boy with a scholarly reputation, but I am very curious. If the protector of the country hadn't accidentally discovered the horseshoe from Yangzhou City during his expedition against the White Lotus Sect, you
Do you plan to hide it for the rest of your life?"
"My uncle was joking. The horseshoe is a sharp weapon for the country. If used properly, it can protect the peace of the country. How dare my nephew keep it secret for his whole life?"
Song Yu narrowed his eyes: "Oh? If there is no protector of the country, why are you going to present your horseshoe?"
Liu Mingzhi touched his nose angrily. This has become his classic action. Once he feels guilty, he can't help but touch his nose: "When the time comes, it will naturally come up. At that time, the time has not come yet." Liu Mingzhi had no choice but to touch his nose.
A careless look.
"His Majesty is grateful that your boy is a talented person, and has broken the past practice. He wants to add your boy as the prince's companion. Such an opportunity to rise to the top has attracted the attention of many officials in the court, but he has been rejected by you.
Yes, the reason turned out to be to get married. In order to get married, I gave up my status as the crown prince’s companion. You said I called you Liu Daring, did I call you wrong?"
Liu Mingzhi smiled bitterly: "Uncle and nephew,"
Song Yu stared at Liu Mingzhi fiercely: "Kneel down."
An invisible aura from Song Yu was directly forced on Liu Mingzhi. Looking at Song Yu's sharp eyes, Liu Mingzhi stood up, walked to Song Yu, and knelt down with a plop: "Uncle."
This time Liu Mingzhi was willing to kneel down. Song Yu's identity was not much worse than Liu Zhi'an. Based on the many letters about himself that Song Yu sent to Liu Zhi'an, as well as the two bed crossbows that Song Yu sent to Liu Zhi'an in violation of regulations,
Liu Mingzhi was convinced that Song Yu's contribution to the Liu family was not much less than that of Liu Zhi'an.
This is no different from being half a biological father.
Song Yu stood up and paced back and forth: "Liu Mingzhi, Liu Mingzhi, do you think that you can be truly lawless because you have solved the problem of Tuolu tribe's request for seal and saved the treasury tens of millions of taels of silver?
No? Do you still know who you are?"
Seemingly upset, Song Yu raised a corner and kicked Liu Mingzhi on the shoulder, knocking him aside.
"Master."
"Master."
"Brother."
Liu Mingzhi covered the pain on his shoulder and raised his hand to signal Ying'er and the others not to move, and knelt in front of Song Yu again.
Song Yu sat on the chair with a trace of regret in his eyes, which immediately disappeared: "Jiangnan Liu, Donghai Bai, Northwest Cloud, Mobei Zhang, do you really think that you have the reputation of having the four major families connected by the same spirit?"
You can be lawless. Yes, your four major families are of the same spirit. The Yun family has a duke with a heavy army, the Zhang family has a protector who controls the military power in northern Xinjiang, and the Bai family is a martial arts family.
By birth, your Liu family is rich and powerful. His Majesty has no reason to dare to touch you. But don’t underestimate the court’s heritage. The court can stand firm against the Jin Kingdom and the Turks for hundreds of years. It is not an empty shell.
, anyone can take a small look at it.”
"Yes, my nephew is confused." Although Song Yu's thoughts were completely different from his own thoughts of not wanting to contact the court, Liu Mingzhi did not want to refute it at all.
"Thinking about the tragedy of your third uncle's family being exterminated, death after death, exile after exile, slavery after slavery, your father and I lived a haggard life, thinking day and night to avenge your third uncle. Do you want to
Will the Liu family follow in the footsteps of your third uncle? Liu Mingzhi, you bastard, you have no regard for the lives of hundreds of people in the Liu family. If the Liu family suffers disaster because of you, you will die.
Don’t even think about peace."
"My nephew realizes his mistake."
Song Yu waved his sleeves: "I'm not your father. I can't see you letting yourself down and not being willing to beat or scold you. I'll kneel down for half an hour and reflect carefully."
"My nephew obeys my orders."
: There is a small problem in the background. I have been waiting for a long time.
