"Brother, there is really no need to be like this." Pei
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, my brother, as 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 this kind of thing?" Pei said.
Liu Xuan pursed her lips and pondered for a moment, watching her eldest brother nod his head silently a few times.
"Okay, little sister, I understand."
"Say it."
"Among the people that little sister knows, after knowing my identity as a son of Jianghu, little sister, the one who reacted the most was a person named Lin."
"Who are you from?"
Liu Xuan smiled bitterly and let go of one of her jade hands, pointing sideways in the direction behind her.
"The land of Qilu."
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 Zhen Zhen's head and replied with a nasal sound.
"Um."
“The land of Qilu, the hometown of saints, no wonder!
So what is the identity of this person named Lin? Is he a member of a noble family or an ordinary scholar? "
"He is both a child of a noble family and a scholar, both." Pei
"Hey, he is from a famous family and holds a book of sages, so his background is indeed noble.
With such a status, it is no wonder that he looks down on people in the world who are regarded as reckless people. "
Liu Xuan let go of the jade hand holding Liu Dashao's arm, smiled and took off the wine bag from her waist, and gently pulled out the stopper on the wine bag.
In an instant, 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 arm and handed over the wine bag. wear
"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 one 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 their names.
Brother, I am not interested in these. Let me tell you where they are from. "wear
Liu Xuan raised her jade arm and gently drew a large circle in mid-air.
"They are found in every state in the world, such as Xuzhou, Anzhou, Ningzhou, Shaozhou, Liangzhou..."
"How are they doing?"
“Some are children of aristocratic families, children of famous families, and some are ordinary scholars.
Some, like those named Lin, are both. "
Liu Mingzhi frowned slightly and pondered for a long time, then smiled and nodded.
"Okay, brother, I know." Pei
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 about these things. "
"Little sister, lantern, drink some wine for brother." Pei
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 eyebrows narrowed, and her pretty eyes revealed a hint of confusion. wear
"Huh? Brother, what do you mean?"
Young Master Liu frowned tightly and gently smacked the drink from the corner of his mouth.
"Little sister, the things our brothers and sisters just said are not just your business.
It is also a matter for brother and the court. "
Liu Xuan shook her head with confusion on her face: "This... little sister Hu Tu."
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 for thousands of miles. Pei
Later, Duan Dingbang, a young man, led an army of 100,000 to conquer Huawai.
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." Pei
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.
"Little sister Hutu, please give me some advice."
"Little sister, ever since I sat in that position for my brother, I have been paying great attention to people's livelihood and government affairs.
People's livelihood is governed by officials, and 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, my brother and I have always attached great importance to the imperial examinations to select good talents. "wear
"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.
But 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. wear
"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 so many corrupt scholars that the court has no real talents to use, which is a big disadvantage."
Liu Xuan'e frowned slightly and pondered for a while, then she nodded her head a few times, seemingly understanding.
"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, and then squinted his eyes and took a deep breath of wine. wear
"Little sister, brother, let me tell you this.
Brother Wei, 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 Wei, the king of a country, govern a country and be good at shepherding the people of the world.
Therefore, as a brother, I would raise the status of a scholar so much. "
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?"
"Well, this..." Pei
"These scholars, even before they have been named on the gold 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?
Let them govern a country, and you can imagine how they will treat the people under their rule.
After such a person takes 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 that my little sister has met."
"Xuan'er, how can I not know this truth you said?
However, do you know that there is a saying that what goes above leads to results? wear
Let these self-righteous and pretentious people enter the temple.
Real talents will one day be led astray by them.
In fact, they forced him 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. wear
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 eight thousand people, if not ten thousand.
The eldest brother's hands are already stained with blood, so there's no harm in getting a little more stained.
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 immortal after all!
If such unhealthy trends are not curbed in time.
One day, it will be a disaster for future generations. "wear
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. "wear
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 could 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 am currently focusing on the major events of the Western Expedition, and I can’t spare the time for the time being.
Wait until one day when the Western Expedition comes to an end. wear
Find an opportunity 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 used to be. I can help you."
Young Master Liu pondered for a while with a weird look on his face, then nodded happily.
"Okay, brother, I will definitely come to you when I need your help in the future."
"Yeah, yeah, don't forget it."
"Hehehe, don't worry, I will never forget it, brother.
When Weixiong finishes all the things he should be busy with, Weixiong will send someone to notify you to come back. wear
At that time, we brothers and sisters will unite together.
Let’s explain a truth 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 seemingly indifferent, but filled with indifferent and evil words, and nodded her head gently a few times.
"Yeah, yeah, little sister, I'm always on call."
"Brother." Pei
"Hey, Xuan'er."
Liu Xuan put the wine bag on her waist and looked at Young Master 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 kin in the world is the one with the same blood. wear
Even if one day, for some reason, we meet each other with 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 hint of complexity in his eyes.
“Yes, the old man is right, there is nothing more close than a person of the same blood.
However, this principle is not suitable for the royal family. "
Hearing Young Master Liu's sigh, Liu Xuan's delicate body trembled slightly.
"Brother, you are worried about the children below." Pei
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. "wear
"Hey, please, brother."
"Silly girl, let's go together."
"Hehehe, little sister, I'm just trying to be polite to you."
"Little sister."
"Hey, 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. wear
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, you 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 been able to meet a suitable person, what do you want me to do? wear
I can't just marry anyone, right? "
