When Liu Mingzhi's figure was about to arrive outside the palace gate, several sharp chirps of golden eagles suddenly came from the sky above the palace.
"Bah! Bah!"
When Liu Mingzhi heard the chirping of the golden eagle, he paused slightly while he was on his way, subconsciously raised his head and looked towards the cloudless blue sky above his head.
I saw a majestic golden eagle flying high in the blue sky above the palace.
In Young Master Liu's field of vision, the majestic golden eagle screamed and circled in the sky for several times, then suddenly flapped its wings and soared straight towards the countries in the East and West.
go.
"唷."
Accompanied by another sharp cry, the figure of the golden eagle gradually soared away under the cloudless sky.
Young Master Liu's eyes followed the golden eagle's figure moving bit by bit.
Within six or seven breaths, the figure of the golden eagle gradually turned into a small black dot in his eyes.
It wasn't until the figure of the golden eagle completely disappeared in the blue sky and his sight that Master Liu slowly withdrew his gaze.
After Liu Mingzhi withdrew his gaze, he gently shook the Wanli Jiangshan engraved jade fan in his hand, and sighed with a faint look in his eyes.
"well!"
No matter how fast the golden eagle delivers messages, it still takes time to fly from the royal city of Dashi Kingdom to the capital of Dalong.
There are only six days left until the old man's sixtieth birthday.
Whether this birthday congratulatory letter of mine can reach the hands of my old man Liu Zhi'an on time, everything depends on God's will.
"The golden eagle delivers the message. I hope it will be ready to arrive on the tenth day of October!"
Liu Mingzhi murmured softly to himself, then gently shook the jade fan in his hand, raised his feet and walked straight out of the palace gate without hesitation.
A group of soldiers on duty outside the palace gate saw Young Master Liu slowly walking out of the palace, and quickly turned around and saluted in unison.
"We see your Majesty, long live my emperor."
When Liu Mingzhi saw this, he chuckled and raised his hand to signal.
"No gifts, no gifts at all."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Liu Mingzhi nodded slightly and walked straight towards the long street where people were already coming and going.
"You can continue to be on duty."
"We obey, and we will send you off to Your Majesty respectfully."
After Young Master Liu slowly walked onto the long street, his figure merged directly into the flow of people coming and going.
Under the watch of a group of soldiers, his figure gradually moved away until he completely disappeared.
The sun and the moon fly like a shuttle, and time flies like an arrow.
Time passed silently, and six days passed quietly.
It is the tenth day of the tenth month of the seventh year of Dalong's reign of peace.
Before you knew it, it was Liu Zhian's sixtieth birthday.
On the morning of the tenth day of October, Young Master Liu didn't even eat breakfast, so he directly summoned Qi Yun, the third princess, Qi Ya, the queen, and the little cutie to his study.
Then, he took a large group of family members around him and rode several carriages straight to the east wall of the Dashi King's City.
Royal City, under the east wall.
After Liu Mingzhi and his family got off the carriage, they immediately saw Song Qing, Liu Song, Du Yu and others who had been waiting at the stairs under the city wall for who knows how long.
Song Qing, Liu Song, and Du Yu's brothers saw Young Master Liu, Qi Yun, the third princess, Huang Lingyi, Xiao Kaitai and their families getting off several carriages one after another, and hurriedly greeted them.
A gift.
"Third brother, you have to be polite as a brother."
"Please see the young master."
"Let's see the commander-in-chief."
"No gifts, no gifts at all."
"Thank you, Master."
"Thank you so much, Marshal."
After Liu Song and others straightened up, they turned around and were about to salute Qi Yun, the third princess and the other beauties. Qi Yun smiled and gently waved her jade hand one step ahead of them.
"Okay, okay, no need to be more polite."
"Yes, thank you very much, madam."
"Thank you madam."
Liu Mingzhi closed the jade fan in his hand and looked towards Song Qing with a faint smile.
"Hahaha, brother, it turns out you arrived before our family!
Brother, when I was on the carriage just now, I was chatting with Yun'er, Yan'er and the other two sisters, brother, are you going to arrive a step behind us?"
Song Qing heard this and replied cheerfully: "Third brother, today is such a special day. How dare I not arrive earlier for my brother's sake!"
Liu Mingzhi smiled and nodded, then turned his head slightly and shifted his gaze to Liu Song.
"Liu Song, Master, are you ready for everything I told you last night?"
"As I say, young master, everything has been arranged."
Liu Mingzhi nodded slightly, smiled slightly and raised his finger to point to the stairs leading to the city wall in front of him.
"In that case, let's go to the city wall.
Big brother, Yun'er, Yan'er, are gone."
"OK."
"Hey, okay."
"Yeah, yeah, here we come."
Liu Mingzhi lightly smacked his lips a few times and walked up the stairs at the first pace.
Qi Yun, the third princess, Little Cutie, Liu Song and a large group of others saw this and hurriedly followed.
When Young Master Liu and his party arrived at the city wall, there was not a single person visible on the huge east wall except for three tables and the flags fluttering in the wind.
Young Master Liu stopped his steps, turned his head and looked around the city wall where no one could be seen. He smiled and turned sideways to Qi Ya, Qing Lian, Yun Qing Shi and Gu Mo Rongrong who were carrying food boxes behind him.
, the Xue Bizhu sisters waved.
"Sister Ya, Lian'er, it's getting late. You sisters, please put out all the food and wine in the food boxes."
"Hey, my sisters know it."
Qi Ya, Qing Lian and the other sisters responded with a sweet voice in unison, and immediately walked towards the table five or six steps away.
Liu Mingzhi gently shook the Wanli Jiangshan engraved jade fan in his hand and walked slowly towards the city wall.
Qi Yun, the third princess, Little Cutie, Song Qing and others saw this and followed them silently.
Liu Mingzhi walked to the city wall and stopped. First he turned his head and looked at the scenery outside the city, and then looked at the rising sun in the eastern sky.
"The weather is good today, but I don't know what the weather will be like over there in Dalong Jinling today?"
Qi Yun, the third princess, and Song Qing listened to Young Master Liu's somewhat emotional tone, and after looking at each other, there was a hint of sadness in their eyes.
Qi Yun gently pursed her delicate lips twice, took two steps forward lightly, smiled slightly and turned to look at Liu Mingzhi who was standing aside.
"Husband, the weather in Jinling City must be very good."
Liu Mingzhi turned his eyes and glanced at the beauty who walked beside him, and chuckled happily.
"Haha, hahaha, I hope so."
As soon as Liu Mingzhi's chuckle finished, Qi Ya's soft voice suddenly sounded from a few steps away.
"Husband, all the food and drinks have been placed."
Listening to Qi Ya's greeting, Liu Dashao took a long breath and immediately turned around and walked towards Qi Ya, Qing Lian and the other sisters.
"Okay, here we come."
"Yun'er, Yan'er, it's over."
"Hey, here we come."
"I'm coming."
Qi Ya, Qing Lian and the other sisters looked at their husbands coming towards them, and pointed to the fine wine and delicacies placed on the table with smiles in their eyes.
"Husband, all the food and drinks were prepared according to your instructions last night."
Liu Mingzhi smiled lightly and nodded, looking down at the delicacies on the table.
Immediately, he raised his right hand to lift the wine bottle on the corner of the table, and poured two glasses of wine on his own.
"Yun'er, Yan'er."
"Hey, I am here, husband?"
"Husband?"
"call."
Liu Mingzhi took a long, hard breath and gently put down the wine bottle in his hand.
"My husband, I can do the rest by myself, and you sisters don't have to accompany me."
Qi Yun, the Third Princess, Qing Lian, the Queen, and the other sisters looked at each other hesitantly for a few times, and then all bowed to Liu Dashaofu.
"Hey, my sisters know it."
"Yue'er."
"Hey, the baby is here, daddy?"
"Come to your father's side."
"Yeah, yeah, it's coming, it's coming."
The little cutie responded with a sweet voice, and immediately came to the side of Mr. Liu in three steps and stopped.
"Daddy?"
After Liu Mingzhi carefully arranged his clothes, he turned slightly to look at the rising sun in the eastern sky with a sad expression, bent his knees and knelt down towards the east.
Immediately, under the gazes of Qi Yun, the third princess, and Liu Song, he kowtowed vigorously on the ground.
"Old man, my child is unfilial. I can't serve you in front of you today and wish you a happy birthday in person.
I am thousands of miles away, young master, and I wish you that you will be as blessed as the flowing water of the East China Sea, and that you will live as long as the evergreen pines in the Southern Mountains."
Liu Mingzhi slowly straightened up his body and raised his left hand directly towards the cutie standing aside.
"Yue'er, wine glass."
"Hey, okay."
The little cutie hurriedly picked up a glass of wine from the table and gently placed it in her father's hand.
"Daddy, get it."
Liu Mingzhi nodded slightly, holding the wine glass in both hands and raising it towards the rising sun in the east.
"Old man, I would like to toast you a glass of wine, please do it first."
As soon as Liu Mingzhi finished speaking, he raised his head slightly and drank all the wine in the glass.
"Yue'er, second cup."
"Why."
The little cutie first took the empty wine glass from Young Master Liu's hand, then picked up the second glass of wine from the table and gently placed it into her father's hand.
"Daddy, here you go."
"Old man, I will drink this glass of wine for you, young master. Do it first as a token of respect."
After Master Liu drank the second glass of wine in one gulp, he slowly stood up from the ground.
"Yue'er."
"The baby is here, daddy?"
"Stinky girl, do you want to wish your grandpa a happy birthday?
If you want to pray, then start.
Otherwise, we can start dinner."
"Oh, daddy, you asked like a joke.
Today is my grandpa’s sixtieth birthday, and Yue’er, my good granddaughter, will definitely pay my respects to my grandpa.”
Liu Mingzhi nodded with a faint smile, turned around and walked towards the main seat a few steps away.
"Then you start."
The little cutie nodded slightly, filled the pot with two glasses of wine, and knelt down to the east just like Mr. Liu did just now.
Then, she kowtowed heavily.
"Grandpa, my granddaughter is unfilial, so I can't congratulate you on your birthday in person.
My granddaughter would like to congratulate you on your everlasting smile and your everlasting family relationship.
Longevity is higher than the sky, happiness is deeper than the sea.
Good grandpa, Yue'er proposes a toast to you. Do it first as a token of respect.
Good grandpa, I have the courage to do this cup of Yue'er, so I would like to do it first as a token of respect."
After the little cutie finished two glasses of wine, he stood up and looked at Mr. Liu who was already sitting on the chair.
"Dad, Yue'er is healed."
Liu Mingzhi chuckled and nodded, then raised his hand and waved to Qi Yun, the third princess, Hu Yanjunyao, Song Qing and others who were still standing.
"Yun'er, Yan'er, big brother, please stop standing and sit down."
"Hey, I'll take a seat right here."
"Yeah, yeah, sisters, I know."
"OK."
Just when Qi Yun and the other beauties were about to take their seats, Liu Dashao suddenly raised his hand to signal.
"Yun'er, Yan'er, Lian'er, you sisters, please go and sit at the table next to us.
As a husband, I want to drink with my eldest brother, Liu Song, Du Yu and the others."
Upon hearing this, the sisters Qi Yun, Qing Lian, and Murong Shan immediately stopped preparing to take their seats, and all nodded at Young Master Liu a few times.
"Yes, my sisters know."
Qi Yun looked at the wine bottle on the table and then at the wine jar under the table.
Then, she turned to look at Liu Mingzhi, who was smiling, and a look of worry quickly flashed through his watery, pretty eyes.
"Husband."
When Liu Mingzhi heard the sound, he immediately raised his head and looked towards Qi Yun.
"Well, Yun'er, what's wrong?"
Looking at the smile on her husband's face, Qi Yun pursed her red lips lightly for a few times, then finally smiled and shook her head gently.
"Husband, it's nothing. I'll go over and take a seat first."
"Okay, go ahead, go ahead."
Qi Yun smiled lightly, nodded her head twice, and walked towards the table next to her with light steps.
Liu Mingzhi casually rolled up the sleeves on his arms, picked up the pot and poured himself a bowl of wine.
"Liu Song, Du Yu, Ming Feng, come on, come on, all of you, come sit down and let's drink together."
Listening to his young master's greeting, Liu Song's face instantly showed a look of hesitation.
The faces of Du Yu and others also became hesitant.
They were not fools, and they could tell at a glance that Young Master Liu wanted to drink with them and others, intending to use the wine to drown his sorrows.
In this case, how could they dare to agree?
"Master, this, this, this is not appropriate, is it?"
Du Yu, Sun Mingfeng and others also quickly spoke in agreement.
"Yes, yes, Commander, this is inappropriate, this is inappropriate."
"Humble position seconded."
"Whatever is appropriate or not, I will ask you to come and sit down, young master. You can just come and sit down."
