Summoning the best emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 101
Song Lian's home is at the end of an alley in the east of the city. It is not very prosperous. The best thing is that it is not too far from the prefect's mansion, which saves commuting time and facilitates Song Lian's work. When walking on the street, I can feel the most real state of the people.As a politician, go to tomorrow, observe the people's sentiments, and unite man and nature, so that we can make policies and measures that are most beneficial to the political situation and most suitable for the people.

This was Liu Xie's first visit to Song Lian's house after arriving in Chenliu. Song Lian's house was very simple and low-key, and could even be described as poor.The copper rings are mottled, the facade is pitted, blue bricks and white tiles, the ground is muddy and covered with snow, it is no different from the most ordinary dwellings.It's hard to imagine that this is actually the residence of Song Lian, the first civil servant under Liu Xie's command, without even a door plaque.If it wasn't for Xu Chu leading the way, Liu Xie felt that he had gone to the wrong door.

Liu Xie stopped Dian Wei who was about to knock on the door, stepped forward in person, and shook the door knocker slightly, the clear and clear voice was incompatible with this dilapidated environment.Soon, someone came looking for the sound and opened the door.

The person who opened the door was an old woman in her early fifties, with calluses on her hands with protruding veins. Although she was yellow and thin, she was very energetic. It seemed that she was often engaged in labor.Liu Xie had met her before and knew that she was Song Lian's wife.

Liu Xie didn't dare to trust her, so she quickly greeted "Old Madam." Mrs. Song also recognized Liu Xie, and she was surprised that Liu Xie would suddenly appear in front of her house, but she didn't panic at all and proceeded calmly Please invite Liu Xie in.

When Liu Xie entered the room, he noticed that there was a basket of needlework and a few coarse clothes that needed repairing, sewing and washing.Liu Xie's eyes were a little wet. This should be the private work that Mrs. Song subsidized the family.

There are no maids and servants in the family, everything needs to be done by Mrs. Song herself.After she asked Liu Xie to sit down, she went down to make tea and served it herself. Liu Xie felt ashamed of receiving it, so she quickly helped her to sit down together.

Mrs. Song smiled, and said no longer to refuse: "The humble house is simple, everything is simple, I hope His Highness doesn't mind."

Seeing that Liu Xie didn't mind, she then asked: "Your Highness came here today to find my master? Your Highness doesn't know that he won't be back at this hour at all, at least he won't be back until tomorrow. After eating The meal left in a hurry. Alas, the master is busier than before, but he is more energetic. I have lived with him for so many years, and I have never seen him work so energetically. I know he is doing it for His Highness serves for the benefit of the people, but he is old after all. I don’t know how long he can last if he continues to consume like this. I have always wanted to persuade him to take care of his health. But I know that his heart is worse than ever. To be satisfied and fulfilled. The last time His Highness invited General Xu Chu to watch him recuperate at home, he almost couldn't hold it in. He kept wandering around in this room all day long and refused to stop. I know what he was thinking. , so from then on, I stopped trying to persuade him.”

"Oh, forgive me, Your Highness. This person likes to talk too much when he is in the first grade. If you don't pay attention to it, you won't be able to play it. It will make Your Highness laugh." Mrs. Song realized that she might talk too much. Apologize.

"The old lady is polite. To be honest, I came here this time to find Song Gong, but I didn't think that he had not come back because of his diligence. " After finishing speaking, Liu Xie didn't hold back, so he revealed the previous misunderstanding between himself and Song Lian, and then continued: "I know that Song Gong is a golden word, and every word is for my own good. The boy is young and vigorous. It’s rare to be impulsive, it’s because of guilt and uneasiness. After thinking about it, I still feel that I need to come here and speak clearly. Song Gong helped me from the end of Duckweed, and now I occupy the land of Chenliu County, but if I am separated from Song Gong, On the contrary, I have lost the minister of the humerus. Between Duke Song and I, there is not only the righteousness of a monarch and minister, but also the love of the young and the young. I came here today to sincerely resolve the misunderstanding with Duke Song and settle the previous suspicions." Liu Xie It's hard to say seriously.

"Your Highness attaches so much importance to me, I am really touched and frightened. I would like to thank you for your kindness on behalf of my father. It's just that your Highness's words are wrong. Your Highness is the master, and I am your minister. No matter whether it is right or wrong, it must not be your Highness's fault." Pass. I will definitely convey your Highness’s thoughts and advise you to repay Your Highness for your kindness.”

Liu Xie was about to say a few more words, when suddenly there was another sound of knocker shaking outside the door, Mrs. Song apologized apologetically, "I'm afraid the neighbors came to see if the clothes were washed, Your Highness, wait a moment, I'll go Take a look."

Liu Xie asked her to take it easy, he now has a more intuitive understanding of Song Lian's economic situation.It stands to reason that the salary I gave him is enough to allow him to live a better life, and he will never rely on his old wife to sew clothes to supplement the family like now.Among them, there must be hidden secrets that I don't know.He suddenly discovered that he, the master, really couldn't be called fulfilling his duty.He was always eager to crack the soil and seal the border, and expand the territory, but he neglected the internal stability and development, so that like now, he didn't even know the family situation of the opponent Wenwu at all.

"Perhaps Duke Song is right. The Lord of the Ming Dynasty not only wants to raise his whip to defeat the enemy and strengthen overseas, but also to maintain his life and make progress while maintaining stability. Gradually, Liu Xie gained more experience on how to be a good protagonist.

"What, you said His Highness is coming, quickly take me to Your Highness." Liu Xie was fascinated by his thoughts, and suddenly there was an urgent voice outside the door.The voice was very familiar, and Liu Xie knew immediately that the one who knocked on the door just now was not the neighbor who came to ask for the clothes back, but Song Lian had returned.

"See Your Highness, Lian!" Sure enough, a figure flashed by the window, and Song Lian walked in, saluting Liu Xie respectfully.After the previous incident, he also began to reflect on himself, so now he strictly abides by the etiquette in every move of Liu Xie.

"Mr. Song, please hurry up!" Liu Xie quietly cast a look at Mrs. Song, signaling to ask her to help turn around and clarify the misunderstanding.

Upon seeing this, Mrs. Song gave Liu Xie a reassuring gesture. She helped Song Lian up, and said with a smile, "Your Highness has told me about the unhappiness between you and His Highness. Hey, both of you are God-destined masters of ZTE. One is a future minister capable of governing the world, and also has a deep friendship. The so-called misunderstanding is just paranoid good words, and the words will be clear."

Song Lian saw Liu Xie looking at him with regret and apology on his face, and felt a mountain of gratitude. He couldn't help crying, and his body was trembling with emotion. What do you want? Lian has also introspected. Your Highness is a genius, and it is not comparable to mediocrity. Extraordinary people will naturally do bold things. Although Lian is kind to advise, but he ignores too many details and neglects His Highness. Lian is guilty, Lian is guilty, please punish him, His Highness!"

Liu Xie supported Song Lian, who was about to kneel down, and said earnestly: "Song Gong and I are not saints, and we are far away from saints. Why should we seek perfection and make no mistakes? In my opinion, the king and his ministers will survive the catastrophe. Now, when we meet and smile, we can forget all our grievances. This matter should be considered as a passing moment, so don’t mention it, don’t mention it!”
