hold this little monk

The little days in Changle passed quickly, Shi Xu was like a fish in water here, meeting this famous prostitute today, drinking and composing poems with that scholar tomorrow, Xiaoxuan and Bi Kong lived a simple life of simple food for a long time, in general For everyone, everyone is very satisfied to usher in the new year in Changle.

Liu Yan is also very busy, rushing back all year round during Chinese New Year.

Xiaoxuan and him can be regarded as old acquaintances. Based on Xiaoxuan's understanding of Liu Yan, he believes that he must know about the fact that he has lived in his house for more than half a year.

So as soon as he came back, he killed them both.

From Liu Yan's point of view, he was quite accurate in throwing a friend who was casually thrown by his nephew back then. The two of them have stumbled and stumbled for so many years, and even lived and died together.In the mood to personally observe the pair of good brothers that he had facilitated, Liu Yan didn't even knock on the door when he went - after all, this was his home.

But that's embarrassing.Xiaoxuan and Bi Kong are already in a special period of sticky first love and hot love, and Bi Kong is a serious and energetic young man, and in addition, almost no one will come into their courtyard , and no one ever comes in without knocking.

So, Liu Yan, who was looking at the brotherhood, when he opened the door and saw two people who were talking and laughing very close to each other, for a moment he suspected that his old eyes were dim.

His sudden attack almost didn't scare the two children with ulterior motives to death, although Xiaoxuan was just analyzing with Bi Kong the difference between the fake paintings they bought from the night market.

Xiaoxuan moved his butt to the side almost subconsciously, making the distance between the two seem a little further.

However, in Liu Yan's view, this move seemed to be a bit of a cover-up.

Liu Yan looked at the two children who were too old for him to recognize in front of him, his eyes were full of thoughts.

"Hey, which play are you playing?" Liu Yan walked in with a smile that was not a smile, sat across from the two, propped his chin and said, "Why do I have the illusion of catching a cheating couple?"

Xiaoxuan: "..."

After so many years, this Le Wang's way of speaking is still so cheap.

"We're discussing the counterfeit we bought yesterday, Uncle Huang, shall we watch it together?" Bi Kong's face remained unchanged, looking very calm, if the suspicious blush on his face was ignored.

Liu Yan is not a serious literati, so he casually took the painting from his nephew, and said casually, "Fake? If you want, I can get you the real one. What's so good about a fake."

Liu Yan didn't care, seeing that he was about to tear up the fake, Xiaoxuan quickly snatched it up and held it in his arms, as if he was protecting a baby.

Liu Yan was slightly taken aback: "Why, you painted this fake?"

"In fact, the original painting of this painting was made by my brother. It is currently kept in the palace by His Majesty, and all the fakes are circulating in the market. When we bought this painting yesterday, my brother said that this person is extremely skilled. It’s a fake but it’s worth studying, so I bought it.” Bi Kong was a little embarrassed, obviously he wanted to fork his uncle out.

Liu Yan seemed to understand the vague embarrassment in his nephew's eyes, and finally realized that he seemed to be ashamed in front of outsiders. He pretended to be suddenly enlightened, and pointed at Xiaoxuan: "It turned out to be you! Suddenly I grew up so big that I almost lost my face." Recognize it."

Xiaoxuan looked at him with a smile: "My lord is really a noble man who forgets things too much."

In fact, this old fox has already seen it.

Now Bi Kong was stunned, he had no idea that the two had an intersection without telling him.

Xiaoxuan noticed Bi Kong's question, and then suddenly remembered that for so many years, he had never told him about Le Wang's confession to him.

Conscience of heaven and earth, he really just forgot all about this matter, that's all, no deception.

But what is he going to say now...

Xiaoxuan faintly felt that if he couldn't explain this clearly, the boy's glassy heart might be crumbling again.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yan was completely ignorant of the subtle atmosphere that was brewing between the two, and said bluntly: "How can I forget you, at that time in the prison, except for you to relieve my boredom, there was only a dead mouse."

Seeing that it was useless to ask his elder brother with his eyes, Bi Kong turned to look at his uncle, and asked, "The emperor's uncle was in the sky prison... the year I just went to Dakai Temple, why is my brother also in the sky prison?"

"You do not know?"

Bi Kong shook his head.

"You haven't told him all this time?" This question was asked by Xiaoxuan.

Xiaoxuan also shook his head, but he stared at Liu Yan with complicated eyes, which made Liu Yan suddenly have the illusion that the kid wanted to throw him out.

Xiaoxuan hesitated for a while, and turned himself in before Liu Yan could speak, saying: "I don't think it's really a big deal, after all, the prince was just making fun of me at that time, and our deal didn't last long...cough cough..."

He felt himself getting darker and darker.

Liu Yan seemed to understand something. He was overjoyed, and simply added fuel to the fire: "Although it didn't last long, I made the first move anyway. If the king hadn't asked you to take a good look at Ling'er at that time, how could the relationship between you two be good?" It’s good to this point, isn’t it?”

Xiao Xuan gritted his teeth and looked at him, forced a smile: "That's wrong, I think even if there is no threat from the prince, I would still treat him as my own brother at that time."

Bi Kong understood something, stayed for a while before recovering, and lowered his eyes in disbelief.Xiao Xuanben was looking at him nervously, and when he noticed that Bi Kong was looking down again, he seemed to hear the sound of glass breaking.

In fact, it’s no wonder that Bi Kong’s mind is sensitive at this time. Maybe all of Bi Kong’s attachments to him began at that time. At that time, Bi Kong was alone, without a father or a mother, and there was not even a beautiful girl around him. , there is only one good-looking little brother who is willing to be by his side and be a father and a mother... But now a person suddenly appears and tells him that the person who treats you well is just forced, this kind of feeling can be imagined Know.

Although it is said that people should look forward, it is okay to be hypocritical for a while about the past.

Xiaoxuan fully understands this truth, his thoughts have never been faster than now, if Yu's witchcraft can erase the memory, he will definitely erase the memories of both Bi Kong and Le Wang .

Difficult nephew and difficult uncle, none of the Liu family is easy to deal with.Xiao Xuan gritted his teeth and thought.

Liu Yan said this on purpose, to test these two people. Now it seems that the relationship between the two is really not simple.

"Young Master Yu, you are really good." Liu Yan squinted his eyes, and his years of fighting on the battlefield made him reveal a dangerous aura when he squinted his eyes, so that Bi Kong, who was still hurting, couldn't care about his hurting. , looking up at him, as if lest he say something hurtful.

Seeing his nephew's reaction, Liu Yan snorted coldly in his heart, and said in his heart, "You won't be able to keep a boy."

"It's not that good, I almost turned into a murderer." Xiaoxuan also looked at him vigilantly.

Could it be that the two of them have acted too much just now, showing clues?

The two of them are still carefully concealing their relationship, but they don't know that Liu Yan has fought in the battlefield for many years, relying on his wolf-like intuition. The child's trying to hide his appearance became even more suspicious.

"Oh? Isn't it amazing?" Liu Yan chuckled twice and looked at Bi Kong, "I've never seen Ling'er be so serious to anyone. Speaking of which, Ling'er is eighteen this year, although His Majesty doesn't know you Life and death cannot control your life, but your parents are here..."

Bi Kong sighed softly, covering his face: "Uncle Huang, enough is enough."

Liu Yan still considered giving face to his spoiled nephew, so he shut up obediently.

"Why don't you finish?" Xiao Xuan glanced at Bi Kong with a smile.

He felt that Liu Yan was really a fucking talent, so he managed to sow discord twice in a few words, making himself nervous and making Bi Kong nervous again.

The instigator didn't feel guilty at all, anyway, he did it on purpose, who would let these two little bastards still want to hide it from him.

However, he didn't want to spoil his nephew's feelings, so he withdrew his hands in time, and said straight to the point: "Okay, you two, it's so easy to be sowed, it's a pity that you are people who have lived and died together. What? You've only been in my house for half a year, and you're starting to play the seven-year itch?"

Bi Kong: "..."

Xiaoxuan: "..."

Strange to say, when Liu Yan discovered their secret, Xiaoxuan didn't feel the slightest turmoil in his heart, and he wasn't worried at all that he would fly into a rage and file a complaint.

Liu Yan looked at the two children who were silent at the same time, and lowered their heads tacitly. He couldn't help the warmth in his eyes. He suppressed the smile at the corner of his mouth, looked at Bi Kong pretending to be serious, and said, "Do you know that your grandpa will live forever?" Who do you like?"

Bi Kong shook his head obediently.

"Father has always liked a man who grew up with him. Later, when that man died in battle, your grandpa almost didn't follow him. But your grandma and all the concubines in the harem hated that man, saying that man was a vixen. Become, don't mention this when you go back, it's a secret," Liu Yan said leisurely, "I always thought you had the demeanor of your grandpa, but I didn't expect that you and... are the same as your grandpa. I won't blame you What about you, anyway, I haven't been married for so many years, so I'm not much better than you, if you figure it out, go and tell your parents, is it possible that you plan to hide it from them for the rest of your life?"

"Then what does King Le think?" Xiao Xuan said abruptly, "Speaking out about this will not benefit anyone."

Liu Yan pondered for a moment and nodded: "You're right, Brother Huang doesn't like this very much."

"So keeping silent for the time being is the best choice for each other. If that day must come, I will try my best to make them accept me." Yu Xiaoxuan took a rare moment of seriousness, and then added sullenly, "There is no way if I don't accept it." , love to accept it or not.”

After all, Yi Wang and his wife are his elders, and their views have long been solidified. It is impossible for him to argue with the two elders like he enlightened Li Yao. Maybe he will become a so-called male vixen in the end.

In this era, there are not many men who are masculine, but only those with wives and concubines who are not cut off from their children and grandchildren are accepted by the world. Does he want Bi Kong to marry Princess Yi?The more Xiaoxuan thought about it, the more bored he became.

Knowing that his arrival would be a hindrance to the two children, Liu Yan didn't say any more, clapped his hands and summoned a female shadow.

Both Bikong and Shi Xu knew this shadow, and it was Yuhe who almost fought with them in Dafeng Town at that time. Yuhe was very obedient in front of Liu Yan, without any hostility.

Liu Yan thought for a while and asked, "I remember what the Jinse Poetry Club is going to do in the next two days?"

Yuhe replied warmly: "Every year on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, they will appreciate the snow, recite poems and paint. At that time, celebrities and prostitutes from all over the world will come to Daping. There are countless capable people and strange people."

"Jinse Publishing House? What is that?"

"It's a book club that has been rooted in Changle for more than 100 years. It likes to pull literati and inkmen to create things that are not sick. It is silent on weekdays, and it will do big things when the New Year comes." Liu Yan smiled, and there seemed to be deep meaning in his eyes, " This year, there may not only be people from our normal dynasty coming, but it will definitely be unprecedentedly lively, it’s a good choice for you to go and watch the excitement and relieve your boredom, and if you come back and find something new, don’t forget to tell me about it.”

Xiaoxuan: "What does it mean that there are more than ordinary people this year? What do novelties mean?"

Liu Yan smiled narrowly, spread his hands to Xiaoxuan and said, "Literally, that's fine, don't worry about what to do, let's have fun, tell Yuhe what you need, she will follow you these days. Don't forget that day Go and have a look. Yuhe, take care of them."

"Yes." Yuhe nodded and accepted the order.
