Emperor Wen of Cao Wei has a poem that says: "The autumn wind is bleak and the weather is cold, the grass and trees are shaken and the dew is frost, and the swallows return to the south of the wild goose." In autumn, the night in Jizhou became cooler, and Lu Yao and Huang Yi were inconvenient to talk too late, so they went back to their rooms to sleep when they were about to touch.

The temperature in the northern part of Bingzhou is significantly lower than that in the Jizhou Plain, and the temperature difference between day and night has also widened.

The attack of the Xiongnu and Han armies was already more than half a year ago. Many of the counties and counties under the jurisdiction of the Prefecture have slowly recovered their vitality, and Jinyang City, which is the seat of the Assassin's History, has been renovated after a large number of specially mobilized people.

Most of the magnificent buildings in the northern part of the city have been restored, and some of them are more elaborate and ornate than they used to be. The strange giant trees that have been transplanted from the dense forests of the poor mountains over the past few months are also quite large-scale. In early autumn, the layers of trees are gradually dyed with danzhu, or the fallen flowers are colorful, and there are pines and cypresses standing proudly in the middle. If you look around in the daytime, it seems that the boundless leaves of various colors are intertwined like flowers, and the brightly colored dougong cornices are hidden in the meantime, which has a unique sense of beauty.

It's a pity that it's night, and although the moonlight is bright, it can't see through the day. The rolling flowers and trees can only be used as an undulating background in the night, and the inner and outer circles arch over the brightly lit high-rise buildings in the depths of the mansion.

The light gauze and thin curtains in the building are swept in the wind, and the shadows are not clear to see. At a very close distance, it is possible to distinguish that the radiance originates from dozens of bronze candlesticks of different shapes. It is said that this candle is made of blubber from the body of a giant whale that is 100 feet long, and the precious dragon incense is added, and when it is lit, it is not only bright and smokeless, but also used for incense, so each candle is almost more expensive than gold. Even in Luoyang City, which is in a peaceful year, only the most luxurious dignitaries can enjoy it.

The owner of the building disliked the strong aroma of Long Yanxiang, so he placed the potted rosemary in various places. This rare plant that was introduced to China from the Western Regions in recent times was deeply favored by the literati since the Wei and Jin dynasties. And the beauty of the posture of "swaying with the wind" can also be pleasing to the eyes of gentlemen.

At this time, only two people sit opposite each other at the top of the building.

Xu Run, who was engaged in Zhonglang, stared slightly, waved the five strings, and simply sat cross-legged, but his appearance became more and more pretentious in the static. Although the sound of the piano is not in tune with the score, it is elegant and ethereal, like flowing water in the night sky, and the sound of tight and slow sounds is refreshing to people's chests, and it has a melodious and tactful charm. The so-called "technique is in the way" can probably be used to describe this person's piano skills.

Opposite Xu Run, Liu Kun was wearing a wide robe and wide sleeves, reclining on a soft couch, his wet hair casually draped. This dress is not suitable for meeting important subordinates, but Xu Run is a close confidant that Liu Kun particularly relies on, so he has no scruples.

After more than half a year of peaceful life, Liu Kun was slightly fatter than before, and his complexion was much better, and the spirit of a strong military general who was as sharp as a blade was also covered up by the lazy demeanor of a noble son. His eyelids drooped, as if he were about to fall asleep. But the slender fingers occasionally tapped the jade Ruyi loosely held in his palm, which happened to be the beat of the piano music, so it seemed that he was very awake again.

I don't know how long it took, Liu Kun, who seemed to be very comfortable, suddenly asked: "In the past few days, Shiren's mood has improved?" ”

"The first time I led a heavy army out, I was hit by this sudden incident, and I was worried that I would be condemned by the center and implicated in the shogunate...... It's always frustrating. But when I saw him yesterday, I got a lot better. In addition, the soldiers who withdrew from Zhongshan said that this encounter was caught off guard, but the performance of Shi Renxian's nephew was amazing, and he was able to turn the tide in a desperate situation of defeat, and this fortitude and determination was really not under any battle-hardened general. ”

"Well, good, good." Liu Kun said slowly: "Fang Jinbian reports frequently and feather books come and go, it is the time to use force, and those who are not able to be elegant can survive." Among the sons of Brother Qingsun, only Shiren can be both civil and military, and he will have to take on important tasks in the future and slowly hone his training. Zhonglang, tomorrow you will send a message to Shiren for me, so that he doesn't have to worry. I expect that the princes in the court will only settle things and calm people, and will never hinder the important ministers of the frontier because of the dead man in the tomb of Wang Pengzu. ”

"Yes." Xu Run bowed his head, and then dialed out a few bright tones in response.

Liu Kun thought for a while, and then asked: "Regarding Wang Pengzu's recital, where should I go at this time?" ”

The sound of the piano in Xu Run's fingers was not chaotic at all, and he replied leisurely: "Calculating the route, it should have arrived in Yecheng." ”

"Yecheng ......" Liu Kun muttered, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "At the beginning of the year, I asked Lu Yao to send an envoy to Yecheng, originally planning to let him suffer a little setback and suppress his starting momentum. It's a pity that the creation is ever-changing, and very people can speculate that the trip to Yecheng actually gave this kid a chance to soar into the sky, and now that I think about it, it really makes people have to sigh. ”

"Lu Daoming has civil and military talents, and he is not a thing in the pool. But he can have today's achievements, and it is inseparable from the wisdom of the lord, so even if he is alone, he will not forget the kindness of the lord. Xu Run pondered for a moment, and then said: "I remember that Lu Daoming sent an envoy Xiong Cong here before, although he said that he was very obedient in his words. ”

Liu Kun tilted his head and neck back, stretched out his arms and stretched his waist, and sneered silently: "Why does Xu Zhonglang do this...... I know that you and Lu Yao have always been at odds, don't you feel against your will to speak for him at this moment? ”

Xu Run was stunned, and immediately raised his voice and said: "Lu Daoming's character is resolute and heroic, if he can't get used to a literati like me, or there is." However, how could Xu ever think of embarrassing him? The lord is a clear guide, Xu has been an official for decades, and he only knows the life and death of the country, so he avoids it because of misfortune and fortune, and never disdains the things of the party and the same thing. I really didn't expect the lord to blame me for Lu Daoming's departure. Alas......" Xu Run stopped playing the piano. He pressed the strings with the palm of his hand and sighed softly with emotion: "Knowing that I sin against me is only spring and autumn." ”

Liu Kun didn't expect that his casual remark would make Xu Run's reaction so violent. He regarded Xu Run as a friend rather than an ordinary subordinate, so he quickly got up and said apologetically: "Xu Zhonglang, don't misunderstand, I have no intention of accusing, it's just a joke." ”

Xu Run smiled reluctantly: "Lord, it's okay." Then he was silent.

Liu Kun looked at Xu Run's somewhat heavy face, hesitated slightly, and said: "Alas, Zhonglang doesn't know, I said that you and Lu Daoming are not on good terms, and there is really no blame." Although Lu Yao and Lu Daoming are single-handedly promoted by me, his family has a deep origin, and it is not comparable to ordinary martial artists. And this person is very urban, and never takes the initiative to bring up old things, so that I ......"

Liu Kun shook his head again and again, with a look of regret, and as if he had some playful admiration: "If it weren't for the coincidence, I really didn't know that Lu Daoming still had such a past...... Hey...... It turned out that I thought badly, if the ordinary children of the Lu clan in Wu County had such outstanding martial arts, we, the Central Plains Clan, would be ashamed. What a pity! It's a pity that such a talent can't be used by Jinyang for a long time after all! ”

Recently, I changed jobs, I was very busy, and I was physically and mentally tired, but I had to persevere. Comparatively speaking, there is a lot less time for codewords, and even the time to communicate with readers is very tight. However, I will continue to work hard to ensure the quality and maintain the pace of updates. If you're too tired, go to bed first. Bow, thanks.
