The Philosopher's Dandy Dream

Liu's study.

"Father, does your lord know what it means to eat the king and be loyal to the king?" Liu Duxing knelt down in front of the case with a "plop".

"How?" After finishing the memorial, Liu Xiao left the chair, took the face towel handed over by the servant girl, and wiped his hands.

Liu Duxing saw that Liu Xiao was not blunt, so he stood up and pulled out a letter from his jacket, staring at Liu Xiao angrily.

"Dare to ask my lord father, what is the solution to this matter?"

"This is a private matter between my father and Empress Dowager You, so don't inquire about it." Liu Xiao glanced at it, then turned and walked towards the bookshelf.

"Father, think twice!" Liu Duxing stood where he was, suppressed his anger, clenched his fists, and stared at Liu Xiao's back.

"Go down!" Liu Xiaoping calmly responded, and took a copy of "Book of Rites·Doctrine of the Mean" from the shelf.

"Father!" Liu Duxing scolded angrily, "Erhe De read this book of benevolence and righteousness!"

"Go down!" Liu Xiao repeated the three words lightly, without any hint of anger.

"Father!" Liu Duxing felt as if his strength was hitting the cotton.

"Go down!" Liu Xiao still didn't turn around.

"Humph, I'm leaving." Liu Duxing slammed the door and walked out with a "hoo".

……

"Master, don't be angry!" Liu Quan, the housekeeper of the Liu Mansion, stood aside, looking at the master reading the book.

"Liu Quan, where's the eldest son?" Liu Xiao pressed his brows.

"This……"

"And be blunt."

"Go back to the master, it's still outside."

"Have you not returned all night?"

"Yes!"

"When the son comes back, let him come over immediately!"

"Yes!"

Liu Xiao leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes.

"Go down!"

"Yes!" Liu Quan bowed and stepped back.

……

The little light in the study made Liu Shenyan, who was caught straight by Liu Quan when he came back from the back door, a little nervous. Second, the general father's call is earnest practice.Looking for myself today, it's really abnormal that there must be a demon, but it won't work if you don't go.

Liu Shenyan made up his mind, tugged at his sleeves, straightened his crown, opened the door tremblingly, and walked in.

"Are you back?" As soon as he entered the door, Liu Shenyan saw Liu Xiao, the three dragons guarding the tripod, holding a porcelain cup, and casually glanced at him.

"Yes, Father!" Liu Shenyan lowered his head and responded in a low voice.

"My son is really breathing out!" Liu Xiao's mocking tone made Liu Shenyan feel a chill down his spine.

"...don't dare."

"What year is my son?"

"Six out of ten."

"Have you made any achievements?"

"Never!"

"Have you ever ridden a horse through the streets?"

"Never!"

Liu Shenyan's cold sweat was about to break out, and he was able to toss about it immediately when he got his fame in the exam.

"Then what does my son intend to do in the future?"

"Son, son, son..." Liu Shenyan was a little at a loss.

"Say!"

"Son, son..." Liu Shenyan knelt down with a "plop", "I can't succeed in writing, I can't do martial arts, I can only be a playboy! Father, please forgive me!"

"Oh, be a dude?" Liu Xiao stared at the trembling head below.

"Yes..." Liu Shenyan's voice trembled a little.

"How can my son be a dude? Is it by me, or by your brother?"

"All... can... all." Liu Shenyan answered hastily.

"My son, get up now, a man stands between heaven and earth, how can he use his strength?" Liu Xiao stood up and pulled Liu Shenyan up.

"Then..." Liu Shenyan didn't dare to really wait for Liu Xiao to contribute, and stood up by himself, looking at Liu Xiao with firm eyes.

"How about I persuade the queen mother to recruit a son-in-law tomorrow?" Liu Xiao raised the corners of his mouth, his eyes could not be refuted.

"This... I don't dare to climb high!" Liu Shenyan shrugged his shoulders.

"Didn't my son just want to be a dude?"

"But...it's just...Even if the Queen Mother won't allow me the princess..."

"That's not something my son needs to worry about. Go on down"

"Yes." Liu Shenyan turned around and ran away after saluting.

……

Day two.

Liu Shenyan thinks that the flowers in spring are beautiful, here is a flower, there is a flower, budding, red, yellow, white, squatting by the side, picking one is quite interesting.

However, Liu Duxing, who was standing behind Liu Shenyan, was not happy. He frowned, what a good man was looking at flowers all day long.Thinking about finding that letter in the study yesterday, the thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy couldn't hold back anymore, and tried to speak out.

"elder brother!"

"Ok?"

"Brother, do you know benevolence, righteousness and loyalty?"

Liu Shenyan didn't look back for a while.

Liu Duxing thought he didn't hear, so he raised the volume.

"Brother, do you know benevolence, righteousness and loyalty?"

"No!" Liu Shenyan still squatted there looking at the group of flowers, feeling that the group of flowers really had the beauty of Yangchun Budeze.

"Liu Shenyan you!" Liu Duxing was a little annoyed when he heard such an answer, how could his brother not know after reading the sage books for so many years.

"Xiao Xing, be careful!" Liu Shenyan stood up, and turned to look at the boy who only reached his chest. Although his face still looked so immature, the persistence in his eyes was no less than that of an adult.I have heard a little bit about what happened in the study room yesterday morning, Xiao Xing can ask himself benevolence, righteousness and loyalty, I am afraid that some things are already inappropriate.My father is famous outside, and the honor and disgrace of the whole family are tied to the father alone. Under the overthrow of the nest, how can there be eggs?This is no longer a matter of simple value judgments.It's not a bad thing for Xiaoxing to serve an emperor wholeheartedly. It is the general trend in the imperial dynasty. The problem is that his father's position is a bit difficult to handle.

Liu Shenyan couldn't help feeling that no matter how precocious the ancients were, they were still children after all.

"Xiao Xing, this is not something you should meddle in."

After saying that, Liu Shenyan patted Liu Duxing's head, lifted his feet and left, not bothering to look at the child's face.

Little ghost, it will be fine in a few days, after all, the little ghost still depends on his father for a living.Think about what my father said yesterday, asking me to be a son-in-law for the queen mother?

How can someone like myself be able to be a son-in-law?Are you not an asshole yet?

Dropped out of the Imperial College, picked up the bride's sedan chair, spent a day looking for flowers and asking willows, so drunk that I don't know where home is...

It was probably because of his father's whim, so let's ignore him for now, Liu Shenyan rubbed his chin, feeling good about himself, being so happy is life.
