"Brother, there is really no need to be like this." Di
Young Master Liu patted the back of Liu Xuan's hand with his backhand, and his expression became serious.
"Little sister, I am not asking you this question just now as a brother.
Rather, I am asking you as the Great Dragon Emperor, the king of a country.
Little sister, for me, the king of a country, this matter is very important.
You have to know that whether the new decree of the imperial court is accepted in the world or not is related to the stability of the imperial court."
Seeing the serious look on her elder brother's face, Liu Xuan asked doubtfully: "Really?"
"Hahaha, little sister, do you think the Brotherhood would lie to you about something like this?" Di Di
Liu Xuan pursed her lips and pondered for a moment, watching her eldest brother nod his head silently a few times.
"Okay, little sister understands."
"Say it."
"Among the people that little sister knows, after knowing my identity as a child of Jianghu, little sister, the one who reacted the most was a person named Lin."
"Who are you?"
Liu Xuan smiled bitterly and let go of one of her jade hands, pointing sideways in the direction behind her.
"The Land of Qilu." Flute
After hearing the little sister say these four words, Mr. Liu frowned slightly, narrowed his eyes and sneered a few times.
"Hehehe, hehehe, Qilu Earth?"
Liu Xuan looked at Young Master Liu nervously, nodded her head and replied with a nasal sound.
"Um."
"The land of Qilu is the hometown of saints, no wonder!
So what is the identity of this person named Lin? Is he a descendant of an aristocratic family or an ordinary scholar?"
"He is a child of a noble family and a scholar, both." Di Di
"Hey, since he is from a famous family and holds a book from a sage, his background is indeed noble.
With such a status, no wonder he looks down on people in the world who are regarded as reckless people."
Liu Xuan let go of the jade hand holding Young Master Liu's arm, smiled and took off the wine bag from her waist, and gently pulled out the stopper on the wine bag.
Suddenly, a strong aroma of wine emitted directly from the wine bag.
Under Young Master Liu's surprised gaze, Liu Xuan raised her jade neck slightly, opened her mouth and took a few sips of the wine.
"Xuan'er, this wine smells like peach blossom wine, right?"
Liu Xuan smiled brightly, raised her arms and handed over the wine bag.
"That's right, it's the peach blossom wine brewed by Sister-in-law Ya herself. The little sister just filled it in the wine cellar. The empty jar has been placed outside the door of the wine cellar."
Liu Mingzhi nodded slightly, reached out and took the wine bag into his hand, and took a few sips of the wine with a chuckle.
"Except for this guy named Lin, what's going on with the other young talents?"
"Brother, are you asking for their last name? Or where they are from?"
Young Master Liu silently raised the wine bag, smiled and took a sip of the wine.
"Xuan'er, you don't need to tell them what their last names are.
"Brother, I'm not interested in these. Let's talk about where they are from." Di
Liu Xuan raised her jade arm and gently drew a big circle in mid-air.
"There are cities all over the world in every state capital, such as Xuzhou, Anzhou, Ningzhou, Shaozhou, Liangzhou..."
"What's their situation like?"
"Some are children of aristocratic families, children of famous families, and some are ordinary scholars.
There are also some, like those named Lin, who are both."
Liu Mingzhi frowned slightly and pondered for a long time, then smiled and nodded.
"Okay, brother, I know." Di
Liu Xuan smiled, stretched out her jade hand and took Young Master Liu's arm again.
"Brother, let the past be in the past.
As we just said, they look down on the younger sister because they themselves are not that lucky.
What should we care about these unlucky people?
To be honest, little sister, I have already put those past events behind me.
If you hadn't suddenly mentioned it, Xuan'er, I would have almost forgotten all these things."
"Little sister, lantern, drink some wine for brother." Di Di
Looking at the lantern handed over by her elder brother, Liu Xuan immediately took it.
"Hey, give it to me."
Young Master Liu held the wine bag in his hand, drank half of the wine bag, and then burped lightly.
"Uh! Little sister."
"Hey, brother, tell me."
"Little sister, things are not as simple as you think."
Liu Xuan's dark eyebrows narrowed, and there was a hint of doubt in her pretty eyes.
"Huh? Brother, what do you mean?"
Mr. Liu frowned tightly and gently knocked the drink from the corner of his mouth a few times.
"Little sister, the things we brothers and sisters just said are not just your business alone.
It’s also a brother’s matter and a matter for the imperial court.”
Liu Xuan shook her head with confusion on her face: "This... little sister is confused."
Young Master Liu smiled lightly, raised his head and pursed his lips towards the west.
"In the past few years, Uncle Zhang Kuang and Uncle Nangong Ye have led the left and right armies of the Western Expedition on thousands of miles of expeditions. Di
Later, Duan Dingbang, a young man, led an army of 100,000 to conquer the West again.
After the three armies left the border for expeditions, my thoughts, as a brother, were naturally mostly focused on the military affairs of the Western Expedition.
Therefore, it is about the people's livelihood and the administration of officials in the world.
Except for some extremely important events, most matters are supervised by the Ten Kings Palace, the officials in the cabinet, and the civil and military officials in the court."
"Brother, do these things you are talking about have anything to do with the topic we just talked about?"
Young Master Liu looked at Liu Xuan's confused expression and nodded with a solemn expression.
"Of course it is related, and it is very important." Di Di
Liu Xuan reached out and took the drink from Young Master Liu's hand, and took a few sips of the wine with her mouth slightly open.
"My little sister is confused, please give me some advice."
"Little sister, ever since I sat in that position for my brother, I have always paid great attention to people's livelihood and government affairs.
People's livelihood is governed by officials, people's livelihood is governed by officials.
If you want to pay attention to the people's livelihood and the administration of officials, the first priority is to appoint officials.
The foundation of the people lies in the land, and the foundation of the officials lies in the imperial examination.
Therefore, over the years, as a brother, I have always attached great importance to the imperial examination, so as to select good talents." Di Di
"Brother, isn't this good?"
Young Master Liu directly took the wine bag from Liu Xuan's hand and took a few sips of wine with a faint look.
"Yes, it's definitely good.
However, doing this for my brother has invisibly improved the status of scholars.
The status of a scholar can be high, but it cannot be too high.
Once the status of a scholar is too high, it becomes difficult to distinguish the pros and cons for the court... no, for the brother."
Hearing her elder brother's profound words, Liu Xuan instinctively frowned.
"Brother, what are the pros and cons?"
"It is beneficial for the court to have talents available and for people's livelihood to be stable."
"Cons?"
"There are many corrupt scholars and there are no real talents available in the court, which is a big disadvantage."
Liu Xuan'e frowned slightly and pondered for a while, then nodded her head a few times as if she didn't understand.
"Brother, my little sister seems to understand, but there are some things that are not clear to me."
Young Master Liu picked up the wine bag in his hand, drank the rest of the wine in one breath, squinted his eyes and took a deep breath of alcohol.
"Little sister, let me tell you this.
Brother, I attach great importance to the imperial examinations and improve the status of scholars, so that one day, they can help the court and help Brother, the king of a country, govern a country and be good at shepherding the people of the world.
That’s why I raised the status of a scholar so much as a brother.”
Hearing this, Liu Xuan nodded with understanding.
"Brother, my little sister seems to understand a little more."
"Little sister, based on what you just said, what have become of the scholars in the world now?"
"Uh, this..." Di
"These scholars, even before they have even been named on the gold medal list, have already set their sights on the top, think of themselves as noble, pretentious, and look down on people in the world.
What if they get into high school in the future and get on the list?
If you let them govern a country, you can imagine how they will treat the people under their rule.
After such a person comes to power, I will not be able to sleep peacefully."
"Brother, what you said is a bit too serious. After all, not all scholars are like the people I met."
"Xuan'er, how can I not know this truth you said?
However, do you know that there is a saying that what goes up leads to imitation?
Let these self-righteous and pretentious people enter the temple.
Real talents will one day be led astray by them.
In fact, they forced me to become crooked."
"this……"
Liu Mingzhi casually stuffed the empty wine bag into Liu Xuan's hand, and the fierce look in his eyes flashed away.
"Little sister, if something like this happens, as a brother, I am naturally not afraid.
I have lived for my brother for most of my life, and there is a lot of blood on my hands.
During those years when your elder brother and I commanded thousands of troops to gallop on the battlefield and charge into battle, we killed almost 8,000 people, if not 10,000.
The eldest brother's hands are already stained with blood, so there's no harm in staining them a little more.
While I'm here, brother, it's best that these people don't fall into my hands.
Otherwise, Brother Wei doesn't care about a few more lives between the sword in his hand.
But, little sister, as a brother, I am not an immortal after all!
If such unhealthy trends are not curbed in time.
One day, it will bring disaster to our descendants." Di
After listening to her elder brother's words, Liu Xuan'e frowned slightly and pondered for a long time, and the expression on her pretty face gradually became serious.
"Brother."
"Huh? Xuan'er."
Liu Xuan let go of the palm holding Young Master Liu's arm, and suddenly a cold and stern aura came out of her body.
"Brother, your identity is hanging there, and there are many things that are not convenient for you to do.
When there are some things that are inconvenient for you to do, just leave it to my little sister to solve them for you.
Just because my little sister doesn’t like killing people, doesn’t mean that my little sister won’t kill people.” Di
Liu Xuan's tone was very calm, but full of domineering.
At this time, she was no longer the rich daughter of the Liu family.
Instead, he became the leader of the martial arts alliance who was able to dominate the martial arts world.
Liu Mingzhi looked at Liu Xuan as if she had changed into a different person for a moment, and patted her shoulder with a smile.
"Silly girl, I don't need you to worry about it for the time being.
Brother, I’m just focusing on the important matter of the Western Expedition right now, and I can’t spare any time for the time being.
Wait until one day, after the Western Expedition comes to an end.
Find a chance for the brotherhood to have a good time with those so-called aristocratic families and those pretentious scholars."
"Brother, my little sister is no longer the little girl she was back then. I can help you."
Young Master Liu pondered for a while with a weird look on his face, then nodded happily.
"Okay, brother, when I need your help in the future, I will definitely come to you."
"Yeah, yeah, don't forget it."
"Hehehe, don't worry, I will never forget it, brother.
When brother Wei finishes his work, he will send someone to notify you of your return.
At that time, we brothers and sisters will unite together.
Let me explain a truth well to those children from pretentious aristocratic families and those rotten Confucian scholars who think they are noble.
The way of the emperor, the way of the saint.
Between the two, which one is the real truth?"
Liu Xuan listened to Young Master Liu's words that seemed plain but contained a hint of evil spirit, and nodded gently a few times.
"Yeah, yeah, little sister, I'm always on call."
"Brother." Flute
"Hey, Xuan'er."
Liu Xuan put the wine bag on her waist and looked at Mr. Liu with a slight smile.
"Brother, I don't understand the general trend of the world and the way of the emperor that you mentioned, little sister.
My little sister only knows that you are my good big brother and I am your little sister."
"Hahaha, silly girl!"
"Hahaha, maybe.
In the words of our father, the best person in the world is the one with the same blood. Di
Even if one day, due to some reasons, we meet each other with swords and swords, it will be a family relationship that breaks bones and connects tendons.
Brother, we are almost at the pavilion."
Liu Mingzhi raised his eyes and glanced at the brightly lit pavilion in front of him, with a complex look in his eyes.
"Yes, the old man is right, there is no dearest kin in the world than one with the same blood.
It’s just that this principle is not suitable for the royal family.”
Hearing Mr. Liu's sigh, Liu Xuan's delicate body trembled slightly.
"Brother, you are worried about the children below." Di
Young Master Liu frowned and fell silent with a complicated expression.
After a long time.
Young Master Liu smiled bitterly and shook his head, raised his head and pursed his lips in the direction of the pavilion.
"That's all, that's all. As a brother, even though I have extraordinary abilities, I can only educate my own children, as well as my grandchildren and granddaughters below.
As for what happens next, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings.
What will happen then depends on God's will.
Little sister, let’s go there.” Di
"Hey, please, brother."
"Silly girl, let's go together."
"Hehehe, little sister, I'm just trying to be polite to you."
"Little sister."
"Hey, big brother?"
"Little sister, you are twenty-eight years old today.
Now, even brothers Chengfeng and Chengzhi have started a family, married a wife and had children. Di
These two brothers are your eldest and second nephews.
Let’s talk about your eldest niece and third nephew, Yiyi and Chenggan, their two siblings.
In about a month or two, one of the two siblings will get married, and the other will get married.
Therefore, regarding your life-long event, we really cannot delay it any longer."
Liu Xuan looked bitter, and looked at Young Master Liu with a depressed face.
"Brother, these little girls of course understand what you are talking about.
But, little sister, I have never met a suitable person, what do you want me to do? Di
