Liu Mingzhi watched Wen Renxuan and the figure holding Liu Zhengwen leave the garden, and withdrew his gaze with a sad expression.
The sight of his son jumping up and down with Wen Renxuanhe just now flashed before his eyes. Because of Shu'er's incident, the resentment he felt towards his father-in-law in his heart was somewhat relieved.
From the moment his son left, Wen Renzheng kept focusing on Young Master Liu from the corner of his eye.
After seeing him look away, he looked a little sad and a little emotional.
The old man was old and turbid, but there was a hint of relief in his eyes that contained sharp light. He slightly raised the corner of his mouth and took out the tobacco pouch from his waist.
Based on his life experience and knowledge, it is natural to see that Young Master Liu's resentment towards his bastard son has eased a bit.
Good thing.
What a good thing!
As long as everything has a good beginning, the rest will be much easier.
Liu Mingzhi, his apprentice and grandson-in-law, knew very clearly how much he loved his granddaughter Wenren Yunshu.
I was very worried that Liu Mingzhi would be very prejudiced against his bastard son Wen Renxuanhe because his granddaughter had been wronged.
By then, if Liu Mingzhi is unwilling to forgive his son no matter what he says or does, it will be troublesome.
This kind of scene would be the last thing I want to see.
Now that I see that the situation is developing for the better, I can finally let go of my worries.
At my age, what is the so-called fame and wealth, what is the so-called glory and wealth.
It's all just passing clouds.
Only family love is what I value most.
His bastard son Wen Renxuanhe and his granddaughter Wenren Yunshu, the conflict between father and daughter that has not been resolved for decades has always been a worry for him as an old man.
If this heart disease cannot be eliminated, one day I will be driven to the west.
It’s hard to let go of fear and close your eyes.
Now that I see that the relationship between their father and daughter has finally eased, I feel happy from the bottom of my heart.
Based on the current development momentum, it will only be a matter of time before the relationship between their father and daughter can get back on good terms.
Being able to live to see this scene is enough for this life.
From this life until the day I die.
There will no longer be any obsessions that are difficult to let go of.
God, treat yourself well!
In my life, I had a glorious moment when I woke up to hold the power of the world and fell drunk in the lap of a beautiful woman.
I have had the unrestrained experience of riding a horse, singing loudly, and wielding a sword to the end of the world.
There have been ups and downs...
What others have, I have already owned.
What others never had, I once had.
Such a life.
It's not a waste of time to go through this world.
Wen Renzheng lit his tobacco, took a puff of smoke, and happily handed the pipe in front of Young Master Liu.
"Boy, would you like some?"
Liu Mingzhi glanced sideways at the cheerful old man, chuckled and put the teacup in his hand on the table.
"Come on, have some."
Liu Mingzhi took out the tobacco bag from his waist, rubbed his hands, and pinched a handful of tobacco from the old man's tobacco bag.
In the blink of an eye, Liu Mingzhi narrowed his eyes slightly and blew out the smoke in his mouth with a contented expression.
"Good tobacco, such high-quality tobacco, I wouldn't be willing to smoke it on weekdays!
Old man, you are leading a carefree and comfortable life as a child."
When Wen Renzheng heard Mr. Liu's teasing remarks, he chuckled angrily.
"Come on, stop pretending to be a fool here.
Let alone cut tobacco of this quality, even if it is cut tobacco of better quality than these, it is nothing to you kid.
Not to mention the occasional puff of smoke on weekdays, even if you use it as a meal, I won't be surprised at all."
"Old man, you have wronged me. Boy, I really am not pretending to be a coward in front of you.
What I said is all the truth!
If it were placed in the past, when I was still the little lord, or the time when I was the powerful king who controlled half of the country.
I really don't care about this, but isn't it different now?
Old man, kid, let me tell you something that comes from my heart.
Control a huge country and govern a huge world.
It’s difficult!
Not only is it difficult, it’s even more tiring!”
Wen Renzheng heard Liu Mingzhi's somewhat suppressed words and subconsciously turned his head to look at his face.
From the face of Young Master Liu, who was smiling lightly and showing high spirits.
Wen Renzheng saw a hint of tiredness in it that others could not see.
It is a kind of tiredness that comes from the heart, a kind of tiredness that shows true feelings, and a kind of tiredness that cannot be described in words.
Wen Renzheng stared at Young Master Liu's expression for a long time, then shifted his gaze to the hair on his head.
Those inconspicuous white hairs.
Perhaps this is the best explanation for his fatigue.
I have been with this apprentice for a long time, and I am used to his calmness and calmness, as well as his far-sightedness.
It was precisely because of his intelligence that was far beyond ordinary people that he subconsciously ignored his age.
It turns out that he is only in his early forties this year!
Wen Renzheng put the cigarette holder into his mouth and took a deep puff, looking faintly towards the north.
Liu Mingzhi blew out the smoke from his mouth and followed the old man's gaze to the north.
“As the saying goes, it is easier to conquer a country than to maintain it.
In the past, the boy had seen from his father, eldest brother, and Li Ye how difficult it was to be a king.
But it wasn't until I started to become a leader myself that I truly understood.
It turns out that it is so difficult to be a leader.
It's much more difficult than what I've seen before.
How wonderful it would be if we could turn back the time and go back to the past!"
"What you mean by this is that you regret that you raised an army to rebel?"
Liu Mingzhi frowned slightly, squinted his eyes and pondered for a long time, then silently shook his head.
"There's no regrets, and there's no joy either."
"If you were given another chance, would you still choose to take this path?"
"meeting."
Liu Mingzhi replied without hesitation, without hesitation and decisively.
Looking at Wen Renzheng, who was sitting on the stone bench as steady as a rock and motionless, Liu Mingzhi stood up and stretched.
"Boy, old man, you also know why I raised an army to rebel.
To sum it up, it can be summed up in just six words.
To be continued...
