Liu Yu opened his eyes wide and said curiously: "Sir, your words are a bit too strong. What virtues can we two have? We still have to protect your Xie family..."
Xie An shook his head and raised his hand to stop Liu Yu from continuing: "I'm not lying. I invite you two to the backyard because I want to express my feelings. Just like the gathering in black clothes just now, there are poems that can be matched. There are only second-generation nephews like Hu Er and Dao Yun. They are all over forty and not young anymore. However, none of the three generations of grandchildren can write corresponding poems. My Xie family has crossed the river for several generations. , the hard work of my father's generation led to today's situation, but it seems that the next third generation of nephews may not be able to guarantee the prosperity of my family. "
Liu Muzhi frowned: "My lord, you don't have to say this. There are still many talented people among the third generation of the Xie family. As far as I know, they are like..."
Xie An waved his hand: "Okay, Liu Canjun, needless to say, Biwen, none of the three generations of my Xie family can be half as good as you. I know this very well. As for marching and fighting, bloody battlefields, even more so No descendant of the third generation can compare with Xiaoyu. My Xie family has been prosperous and prosperous for too long. The descendants will inevitably lose their enterprising spirit and then lose the ability of their predecessors. But you, the heroes who started from humble beginnings, are my greatest heroes. Jin’s hope for the future.”
Liu Yu gritted his teeth and said sternly: "I, Liu Yu, have nothing to say. The Xie family has something to do, but please tell me that as long as it does not violate national laws, we will give you our fullest help."
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "If this junior is really like what the Lord said, he should obey his orders."
Xie An nodded with satisfaction, smiled slightly, glanced at Xie Xuan from the corner of his eye, and said softly: "The children of the Xie family, how can you hesitate in personnel matters and just want to make them better?"
Xie Xuan's expression was calm and he said seriously: "Like the orchid and jade tree, I want it to grow on the steps of the courtyard."
Xie An's brows raised slightly, then he smiled knowingly and nodded slightly without saying a word. Xie Xuan, on the other hand, looked calm and remained motionless.
Liu Yu was confused. He could hear every word clearly, but he didn't understand what it meant. Maybe it was the legendary Qing Tan Xuan.
But Liu Muzhi stood there with a smile on his face and said nothing. Xie An glanced at Liu Muzhi and said with a smile: "Liu Canjun, you should understand the thoughts of my Xie family."
Liu Muzhi bowed his head and said, "The Xie family has a high moral integrity, which is admired by the younger generation. If the Xie family remains like this, they will be supported by the world's scholars and sages. At least I, Liu Muzhi, will do my best."
Xie An smiled and nodded: "Very good, I am saying this in front of you two today, and I hope it can express my Xie family's feelings. Youdu, at last year's Wu Yi Meeting, I asked you a question, you do you remember?"
Xie Xuan said seriously: "My lord, I dare not forget your teachings for a day. Please ask your nephew to tell you his favorite line in the Book of Songs."
Xie An said solemnly: "Poetry is about ambition. At that time, you had just taken over as the governor of the five states and had not taken any action, so I did not ask you to answer directly. In the past year, the Beifu Army has been established, and the situation in the world has also changed. Now, I Let me hear your answer."
Xie Xuan nodded, raised his head and raised his chest, and said loudly: "My nephew's favorite poem is, I left in the past, and the willows lingered; now I come to think about it, the rain and snow are falling."
Xie An looked at Xie Xuan without any expression on his face. He stared like this for half a quarter of an hour before he smiled slightly: "My favorite saying is, you will tell your fate from afar."
The expressions of Liu Muzhi and Xie Xuan changed slightly at the same time, and they bowed deeply to Xie An at the same time, and said in unison: "I understand your wishes, and I should obey them."
Xie An smiled and waved his hand, looking at Liu Yu who looked confused: "Xiao Yu, today I have to rush back to Jiankang overnight, so I won't have dinner with you. If you don't understand anything, please talk to Liu Yu more." Join the army and discuss it. I hope to hear your heroic poems at next year's Crow Clothes Party."
As he spoke, he turned around gracefully, waving his big sleeves, and the high-pitched and powerful voice gradually faded away: "I will tell you from afar."
Three hours later, on the outskirts of Guangling City, Slender West Lake.
Liu Yu and Liu Muzhi stood by this calm lake. A layer of floating ice had gradually formed on the lake. A few wild ducks were swimming leisurely on the lake. There was a bleak atmosphere between the sky and the earth. You can't even see the birds, and everywhere you look, it's a vast expanse.
Along the way, Liu Yu wanted to ask Liu Muzhi the meaning of those words. To him, these mysterious words were like heavenly scriptures, but Liu Muzhi was always preoccupied and said nothing, even at the luncheon. , this guy who had always been a glutton for food had no appetite, so he ate hastily. This weird behavior filled Liu Yu's heart with questions, and he followed Liu Muzhi until he reached the lake.
Liu Muzhi sighed softly: "I still underestimated the Xie family too much. Congratulations, slave slave, for finding a family that you can entrust to your whole life."
Liu Yu opened his eyes wide and asked curiously: "What do you mean by this?"
Liu Muzhi curled his lips and said, "The last two questions and answers today were the words that my husband and Xuan Shuai expressed their feelings in front of us, and they were also the words to dispel your and my doubts. Didn't you hear it?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "I can't hear it at all. Can you explain it to me?"
Liu Muzhi nodded and said slowly: "Let me talk about the first sentence first. My husband suddenly asked, why should I care about personnel matters, and I want to make them better?"
"The meaning of this sentence is that after Xuan Gong, how will the second generation of Xuan Shuai deal with the relationship with the royal family and the court in the future? This personnel affairs refers to state affairs and the emperor's family affairs. The Xie family has been in charge of government for many years. Even the emperor's marriage was arranged by them, probably because they gave too much control to the Xie family, so the young emperor couldn't wait to start a new business and let his younger brother come out to share the power of the Xianggong."
Liu Yu understood and nodded: "So, Sir Xuan Gong feels that it is a bit too much to interfere in the Holy Emperor's family affairs, which is also called personnel affairs, so he wants to ask Commander Xuan about his attitude?"
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Exactly, the Holy One wants to get rid of the influence of the Xie family, but the imperial power of the Jin Dynasty has been sluggish for nearly a hundred years, and there are no talents in the clan, so we can only borrow the power of other aristocratic families. This is The fundamental reason why the Taiyuan Wang family came to provoke today is because they have taken a fancy to this and embraced the lap of King Kuaiji. They just want to clear away the traces of the Xie family as soon as possible for the sake of the holy brothers. And today Wang Chen’s action is to To force these high-ranking families to take sides, the most important person among them is Wang Gong." chapter;
