Snow fell like feathers, and the stove in the house radiated heat.

Li Ping'an was wrapped in a quilt and holding a cup of hot tea in his hand.

While roasting by the fire, admiring the snowflakes falling outside the window.

"gentlemen!"

A voice came from outside.

Li Pingan stood up lazily.

Listening to the energetic voice, he immediately guessed who it was.

Liu Yong is here.

Several guards walked in carrying a box, obviously a gift for Li Ping'an.

"It's Liu Yong, come in." Li Ping'an said.

Liu Yong followed the sound and walked into the house, feeling a warm feeling rushing to his face.

Looking at the face that had never changed over time from a distance, Liu Yong was startled.

He cupped his fists and saluted.

"I haven't seen you for many years. Sir, you are well."

"General Liu, you're fine." Li Ping'an smiled.

Liu Yong took a look and said, "It seems like it's disturbing your husband's good sleep."

"Let's not see each other outside."

"I heard that Mr. returned, and I specially asked him to choose some gifts."

"Then I'm welcome.".goΠ

Li Pingan took out the tea cup and poured Liu Yong a cup of tea.

"It's cold outside."

After Liu Yong asked his guards to leave, he took off his shoes and got on the kang.

"This year is okay. It's not too cold. It's much warmer than in previous years."

The two of them were just like ordinary people, chatting about everyday things.

Li Ping'an raised his teacup, "I heard that the general has had a prosperous official career in recent years and is one of the pillars of the country.

Li offered tea instead of wine and toasted the general. "

"Sir, please don't laugh at me. If it weren't for your support back then, how could Liu Yong be where he is today.

This glass of wine should be toasted to Mr. "

Liu Yong's experience is legendary.

He was the only general in the Sui Dynasty who came from a humble background and served as a general of the Zhu Kingdom.

Back then, he met Li Ping'an in the four towns of Anbei.

From being a deserter to now.

Life experience is nothing short of wonderful.

"Sir, how long do you plan to stay when you come back this time?"

"I'll leave after the New Year."

"Have you had dinner, sir?"

"not yet."

Liu Yong smiled and asked someone to bring out the food and wine he had bought long ago.

"Knowing that sir didn't eat, I specially prepared some good wine."

Liu Yong took out his own good wine.

As soon as it is opened, a strong aroma of wine comes out.

Li Ping'an drank a large bowl first to warm himself up.

Tasting the taste: "Not bad, not bad."

So the two drank and chatted.

Liu Yong felt a little depressed.

Although he is the pillar of a country, he commands the army and is invincible in every battle.

But what kind of person was the person who came to power in the Sui Dynasty?

No general is allowed to become big and sit on the border.

To avoid any hidden dangers.

So, these generals who are sitting here.

Over time, they will be suppressed by civil servants in the court.

He was recalled to the capital, relieved of military power, and had nothing to do in the capital.

And there will be people in the border areas who will replace the generals in power.

Or, it is the rotation of the positions of the major border generals.

In the past few years, Liu Yong was in the limelight.

Due to some reasons, he was transferred back to the capital.

He was promoted and demoted secretly, and he has been serving as a sinecure in Beijing.

The Emperor's Mind...

Liu Yong lost his appetite as he talked about the delicious dishes to go with the wine.

Drinking wine from large bowls.

In the past few years in Beijing, Liu Yong has been cautious in his words and deeds.

On weekdays, if there is nothing important, do not leave the door without leaving the door.

It is also possible not to interact with the dignitaries who contact you without interacting with them.

Just to prevent people from doubting themselves, lest the emperor become suspicious.

It's just that I'm depressed and can't find an outlet.

No one tells.

The emperor's ears and eyes are all over the place. If it reaches the emperor's ears accidentally, something bad may happen.

However, the person in front of him deserves [-]% trust.

"Mr. laughed."

After drinking enough wine, Liu Yong was neither blushing nor out of breath.

He just sighed heavily and said, "To be honest, sir, I have thought about returning to my hometown more than once in recent years.

However, it was just a thought.

Firstly, he is unwilling to give up the power in his hands;

Secondly, I really enjoy the feeling of fighting on the battlefield.

After so many years, what I represent is not just me, but a group of people behind me.

If I withdraw now, they don’t know what to do..."

This was said with great sincerity.

Having held power for many years, he was like the emperor who kept his word at the border.

Who is willing to give up this obsessive power?

Over the years, Liu Yong must have had loyal followers who followed him.

When one is prosperous, both are prosperous; when one is lost, both are harmed...

Just these, Li Pingan can't do anything.

Not willing to do anything to intervene.

All he could do was listen to the general's heartfelt confession and drink a few glasses of wine to relieve his depression.

As he was talking, there was movement outside.

It was Alia who took Fairy Maomao and Jingyun to go shopping and came back.

"Sir, I will take my leave now."

Seeing that the time was almost up, Liu Yong stood up and prepared to leave.

"Walk slowly."

Liu Yong walked outside and happened to meet Alia.

He cupped his fists, saluted, and left.

Jing Yun looked at Liu Yong's back.

........General Liu! ?

Jing Yun had seen Liu Yong's portrait and quickly recognized this famous Zhuguo general of the Sui Dynasty.

Although Jingyun is young, his mind is very delicate and mature.

Knowing that in order to avoid taboos on weekdays, General Liu was suspected of having contact with his father.

Why did you get home today? ?

Then he turned to look at Li Ping'an, and everything suddenly became clear.

Suddenly I remembered the connection between Li Ping'an and Liu Yong, the general of the Zhu Kingdom, in the folk story.

It’s just that there are so many versions of the story that it’s hard to tell whether it’s true or false.

There is really no doubt about this meeting today.

Thinking of this, Jing Yun's eyes lit up again when he looked at Li Pingan.

"Why did you drink so much wine, sir?"

Aria frowned and smelled the alcohol on Li Ping'an.

"It's just a few more drinks." Li Ping'an yawned, "I'll go back and catch up on my sleep."

"Then I'll go make a hangover soup for you sir."

Alia runs to the kitchen.

The little girl held the candied haws, which was covered with a lot of snow, but she didn't move a bite.

"Why don't you eat?" Li Pingan asked.

"Fairies are not children. Only children eat candied haws."

Jing Yun, who was eating candied haws on the side, stopped.

"Then why buy it?"

The little girl said confidently: "Aliya insisted on buying it for the fairy, but the fairy clearly said she didn't want it."

"Ah~"

The next second, Li Pingan took a bite of the first hawthorn on top of the first one.

Little girl: (⊙?0?6⊙)

"Moo~"

The old cow ate the second one.

Little girl: (゜◇゜)

"If Fairy Cat Cat really doesn't like eating it, you can give it to the next one."

Jing Yun said so and took the third one.
