It was not that hot at the end of September. The awning in Mr. Liu's yard was removed and tables and chairs were placed under the trees. Today, there was no sumo wrestler having fun, only two blind masters were plucking the strings.

Liu Chunyang stood aside and waited quietly for Old Master Liu to finish listening.

"You know everything about the capital now, right?" Old Master Liu did not let him wait, nor did he stop the piano player, and spoke directly.

Liu Chunyang said: "I don't know."

Old Master Liu snorted and said, "It would be strange if you don't know. It's not strange if you don't know. What are you doing when you go to Liudao Quanshan Club to study every day?"

Liu Chunyang said, "Reading." He thought of something again, "I was about to tell my grandfather that everyone wanted to rebuild the thatched house of Zhizhitang, and everyone would donate some money."

Old Master Liu said: "What money can you donate? You can't spend it like this if you have money. If you ask the Prime Minister Wu for such a thing, whoever pushes down will repair it will be unsuccessful."

Liu Chunyang said: "I'm not practicing this for...her...Your Highness, we are all studying, so I'm still willing to work hard for everyone, so I'm free."

Old Master Liu waved his hand: "I'm too lazy to care about you. Besides, if you don't use money, it's the same for you to tell me if you don't tell me."

The grandparents and grandsons have not yet made it clear to each other about using money. Liu Chunyang pretended not to do this, and Old Master Liu pretended not to know. This is the first time he pointed it out.

Liu Chunyang hesitated.

Old Master Liu sat upright and frowned, "I don't care about others. I want to ask you, how long are you going to study at home? Why haven't you returned to the capital yet?"

Liu Chunyang said: "Grandfather's health is not yet healed."

"You unfilial son, curse me in the blue sky and white sun." Old Master Liu cursed, "Don't pretend to be crazy and stupid with me. We all know in our hearts that everything is settled now, and it's time for you to go back."

Liu Chunyang raised his head and said, "It is precisely because the dust has settled that my grandson feels that he doesn't have to go back. I won't be an official either."

Old Master Liu said, "You are just saying you are stupid..." He cursed and stopped again, took a deep breath, and looked solemn, "Chunyang, the most important thing now is not to be an official, but to be a human being."

Be a human being?

Liu Chunyang looked at Old Master Liu in confusion.

"After this troubled and torture, His Highness Princess returned to the court. What she needed was not an official, but a person." Old Master Liu said, "There has never been a shortage of officials in the court, but her people. Now the dust has settled, and it has only caused the ups and downs." Looking at Liu Chunyang, "Didn't the boy from the Zhang family tell you the current situation in the court?"

Liu Chunyang listened seriously, but he did not blurt out the question of Old Master Liu's sudden question.

"I haven't received any letters from Young Master Liantang and others recently." He said.

"If the boy from the Zhang family doesn't come to write a letter, he will be unfaithful." Old Master Liu muttered, and did not ask whether Liu Chunyang's words were true or not. He just said solemnly, "I will offend you when I come to the door of my house. Xue Qing is very powerful and finally got things right. But being an emperor is not easy, especially those ministers like her who are raised by the people and return to court halfway through the road, are very good at bullying people."

The little emperor was just a decoration before. He had seen the court officials with his own eyes. Liu Chunyang nodded, the little emperor and Qin Tan Gong supported her. Now she has returned to the court and there is no one...

"Members, classmates, and classmates." Old Master Liu patted the handrail and paused word by word, "It is the one available to her in the new dynasty. You are indispensable. Do you want her to come and invite you?" He shook his head again when he said this, "Now she probably can't even make the decision to invite you back."

......

......

"Liantang said that I haven't seen Your Highness for half a month."

"The court meeting will be hosted by the Prime Minister Wang."

"Now Chen Sheng was convicted of a conspiracy with the Song and Yuan dynasties, and no one in the court can compete with him."

"It is understandable that Your Highness is seriously injured and recuperated, but it is said that those who can see Your Highness are all approved by Prime Minister Wang."

On Liudaoquan Mountain, several young people sat around the rocks, with books scattered in their hands or around them, and spoke in a low voice.

Leting looked at Liu Chunyang.

"So your grandfather is right, Your Highness has no one available in the court." He said, "We can't go, you have an official position and a Beijing official is qualified to enter the court."

Liu Chunyang put down the book in his hand and said, "We are not qualified, we can see her during the grand dynasty meeting." His official position is humble.

Le Ting smiled slightly and said, "Chunyang, you were wrong. She is qualified to meet you."

Liu Chunyang was stunned and then suddenly realized.

She is the emperor and will be the emperor soon. Even if Wang Lieyang takes power, can he cover the world up to her? How can the court officials not see her?

What's more, she is Xue Qing. Emperor Emperor can be so difficult and after many twists and turns. What's the difficulty of controlling the court? Take your time.

"I know everyone is at a loss now." Le Ting said, looking at the book in his hand. This was one of the books that Xue Qing gave to him when he went to the Imperial College to study.

At that time, I didn't expect that she would never come back once she went, and would never come back in the future. It was extremely difficult to go on a tour as an emperor.

Not right, she has been back once.

Leting retracted his distracted mind.

"She is no longer Xue Qing, but Emperor Baozhang, no longer our classmate, but our king."

"We are very familiar with her, but we become unfamiliar with her, and we don't know how to deal with it."

Yes, it is precisely because he doesn't want to return to Beijing. Liu Chunyang felt a little sad, and the others are the same. These days they are both excited and uneasy, seemingly happy and inexplicably panic, feeling that their whole life has become unreal.

The emperor once had classmates with them, had fun, and drank flowers and wine to visit brothels...

"It's actually very simple. When we started a group study, we had already made it clear." Le Ting said.

The teenagers looked at him.

"The emperor values ​​heroes and teaches you all the best. He is a low-ranking scholar. He is a wise man in the morning and is a sect. He is a general and a minister at night. He is a general and a minister. Men should be self-improvement." Leting said, "We study to achieve success and follow the world. If we are poor, we will be good at it. If we are not aware of the will of the emperor, we will not change our ambitions. If we are a wise king, we will assist us. If we are stupid, we will advise us. So, what are you at a loss?"

The teenagers laughed.

"Leting is truly worthy of being able to distinguish the Spring and Autumn Period."

"Listen to your words is better than reading ten years."

"No wonder people say that Leting is the Dinghai Shenjian of our Liudao Quanshan Society."

"Ye, I heard that two more Confucian scholars are coming to teach recently."

"This is the place where His Highness the Emperor is studying, and it is also considered a hidden residence. Who doesn't want to preach here? How many people in the world are eyeing it?"

"But they can come, they can't just try to expel us Guan Xue."

"It's because there's Leting in Wuyou. I've read the Book of Songs recently? It's been almost three or four years."

The laughter and play sounded in the forest, accompanied by the tinkling and jumping mountain springs beside them, sweeping away the panic and restraints of these days.

Liu Chunyang also laughed.

He may not have been so happy for a long time, yes, don't think too much.

Although I am useless and can’t help much in the court, I can always do errands and tricks.

......

......

Ten miles outside Chang'an Prefecture, the people who saw him stop and watched Liu Chunyang's carriage escort away by dozens of people.

Master Liu San was surrounded by everyone, and he was not as sad as he was far away, and he was very excited.

"It was so costly for my father to ask so many people to escort Chunyang into Beijing." He said.

"This is not a waste of money." Someone next to him said with a bit of sourness, "Your Chunyang has more monthly money than you."

Of course, no one knows the specific amount except the butler. Everyone knows that Young Master Chunyang uses money to treat Old Master Liu.

Master Liu San said, "That's because Chunyang is an official in the court, and there are many people who want to socialize, so it's not easy to be an official." He also kept his beards and said, "My father said that Chunyang is a great talent for being an official and is indispensable in the court, so he urged him to return to the capital."

In the Liu family mansion, Old Master Liu sat down with a few juniors in charge of the family. Of course, he would not go to see Liu Chunyang off in person.

"Grandfather, my brother is really a talented official?" Liu Wuer interrupted with tea, "How big can he be? How long will it take? Can you be as good as my son-in-law?"

If you have an older brother who is a high-ranking official, your husband's family can be higher.

Old Master Liu sniffed and ignored her and said to those people: "The money needs to be prepared."

"Don't worry, great-grandson, prepare enough, and you have as much as you want."

"The people who serve have also been carefully selected. The Confucian master taught in the palace, and the mother who serves is a female official released from the palace."

So I still rely on money to open up the official road, but I also found it strange that Liu Wuer pricked her ears.

Old Master Liu's expression was astonishing as he pointed: "Chunyang has no ability..."

Yi? Liu Wuer's eyes widened, what about the talented official?

"... But it's just that he has nothing, which is his greatest ability." Old Master Liu said, looking at everyone, "Our Liu family must fight for the position of the emperor."

Wow! Liu Wuer reached out to cover her mouth and blocked her screams. It turned out to be for this! The people here said something about her ears so buzzing that she couldn't hear them, her heartbeats and her eyes were shining.

Then, wouldn’t it mean that Liu Wuer is going to be the uncle of the country!

......

......

Liu Chunyang's carriage entered the capital, which was as noisy and prosperous as before.

The four doors were opened without any investigation, and there were no soldiers running around on the street. In the golden autumn of October, people were shoulder to shoulder, shops were filled with colorful flags, and restaurants and teahouses were crowded.

The night fell and the bustle became even more lively. Many powerful families were chariots and horses, and there were singing and dancing that had not been seen for a long time.

The King's House is one of them.

The prostitutes in the courtyard full of colorful lanterns sing and dance like a fairyland, and the glasses of wine inside were intertwined and chatted and lively.
