old friends return

Liu Qingyan was so teased by the cook that he burst out laughing, stepped forward two steps to touch it, but the cat was not afraid of him, stuck out its tongue and licked his hand twice, then hugged the cabbage back, He turned over very comfortably, and lay down on his belly to give Liu Qingyan a smooth hair.

Gao Zhan ran in from outside the door suddenly, holding a letter in his hand, seeing Liu Qingyan teasing the cat, the same cat he had tried to catch many times, he immediately yelled: "Sir, this cat Why isn't it afraid of you at all? Your Highness and the servant tried many times before and wanted to catch it, but it ran too fast..."

As he said that, he also wanted to go up and grab the cat's fur, but the cat quickly turned over, kicked the cabbage on the ground, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.Liu Qingyan's hand that was originally on the cat's stomach was empty, and she retracted it helplessly, and glanced at Gao Zhan.Gao Zhan knew that he had scared the cat away, so he had no choice but to change the subject and said, "Mr. Liu, someone from your house sent you a letter this morning."

While speaking, he handed the letter in Liu Qingyan's hand.

Liu Qingyan took it, a little strange, his father would send him a letter on time on the 23rd of every month, telling him about the current situation at home, why was it so much earlier this time?Could it be that something happened at home?Thinking of this, he hastily opened the letter and read it quickly.

Then he went back to his house.

Gao Zhan was a little strange at the side, why did his eyes turn red when he read the letter?

Liu Qingyan went back to the room, her eyes were still red.It turned out that what the letter said was about his grandmother's critical illness, and the grandson was going to go back to take care of the sick. Although Liu Qingyan was not very close to his grandmother, his grandmother treated him very well, let alone being a close relative. The content of the letter was at first glance Look, naturally I can't bear it.

Thinking about how old my grandmother was, she had always been healthy before, but now she is sick again, and this time the disease is so severe that she probably won't be able to survive it.Liu Yinzhen then wrote to ask him to go back, and it was time to wait for the sick.The letter also advised him not to be too sad, it is already a rare blessing for the old man to live so long.

But still a little sad, Liu Qingyan cried in the room alone for a while, then packed some luggage, and was going to go back when Cheng Muzhi came back to talk to him.

About an hour before lunch, Cheng Muzhi went back to the mansion, and Liu Qingyan told him the reason during lunch.Cheng Muzhi naturally agreed, but he couldn't help nagging, "Is someone coming to pick you up? Or let Gao Jin take you back later?"

"The minister's family sent someone over, so don't bother Your Highness." Liu Qingyan held the bowl, a little lost in thought.

"It's natural to be filial when you go back to serve the sick, but don't overwork yourself, pay attention to rest."

"I know." "One more thing, don't be too sad. Birth, old age, sickness and death are human nature. Don't worry too much and pay attention to your body. Your physique is more prone to illness than ordinary people. I'm worried that after you go back..." The more Cheng Muzhi talked, the more worried he became, and he thought that he would go to the Liu Mansion with him.

Liu Qingyan smiled slightly, "Your Highness, don't worry too much. I will be back in a few days. Your Highness should take good care of yourself during this time, and be careful in everything."

Cheng Muzhi naturally agreed.

When it was almost evening, the Liu Manor sent someone over to take Liu Qingyan back.Liu Qingyan went back, put down her things, and went directly to the wing room in the backyard. Before entering the room, she smelled a strong smell of medicine. Her grandmother had been ill for some time.

"Did Xiaoyan come back?" Grandma lay on the bed, but her ears could still hear clearly. Liu Qingyan restrained her emotions and entered the room with a smile: "Grandma, I'm back to see you."

"Xiaoyan hasn't come back to see grandma for a long time. Come and show grandma, she has grown so tall..." Grandma supported her body and was about to get up. The maid at the side quickly helped her to sit up and leaned against her On the soft pillow.

Liu Qingyan went up to hold her hand, raised a smiling face, and the grandparent and grandson talked intimately for a while.In the evening, after serving her grandmother for dinner, and resting after drinking the medicine, Liu Qingyan retreated and went to her own room.

On the way, I met a few servants carrying a pair of extremely wide calligraphy and paintings, and they were going to the study.Liu Qingyan was also somewhat interested in calligraphy and painting, so he followed to take a look.

Liu Yinzhen was reading a book in the study, and when he saw him coming, he waved for him to come over, and ordered the servants to hang the painting on the side wall.Liu Qingyan walked over and raised his head to take a closer look, a little puzzled, and asked, "Why did father buy such a vulgar painting and calligraphy?" It wasn't that Liu Qingyan was outspoken, but that the aesthetic difference between this painting and Liu Yinzhen's usual is too big.

Liu Yinzhen laughed and said: "It's indeed a bit vulgar, but this imitation wild grass is still pretty good, and the painting next to it is really..." It's hard to compliment.

Liu Qingyan continued: "There is too much blank space, and the mountains and rivers are all ink and wash, which is hard to grasp. What's more, this painting hides the top of the mountain among the clouds, and the stream is hidden among the mountains. The painter's original intention should be to create a kind of The unparalleled and pure atmosphere, but I didn't expect that some excessive force would make the finished product appear nondescript."

Liu Yinzhen nodded and said, "I haven't seen you for some time, but you put some effort into painting and calligraphy?"

It was rare for Liu Qingyan to hear her father praise herself, so she looked a little shy at this moment, and said modestly: "Father was joking..." Then he was puzzled: "Since my father doesn't like this painting, where did it come from?"

"A few days ago, Gu's family's paintings and calligraphy were stolen. I begged to come to me. Naturally, I would not stand idly by. I helped him find the things, and the case was settled. The Gu family knew that I would not accept gold and silver from them as a thank you, so I will do it today." Someone sent me a painting, it's not a famous product, so I accepted it."

"So that's how it is..." Liu Qingyan nodded.

"At the prince's haircutting ceremony dinner, you were the servant who followed the prince, right?" Liu Yinzhen asked suddenly.Liu Qingyan was at a loss for words for a moment, and it turned out that her father really saw it, and knowing that she couldn't hide it, she admitted: "Yes..."

I thought my father was going to teach me, but I heard Liu Yinjiu smiled and said: "Next time, remember to dress up a bit. Which servant have you seen who is as tall as you?"

Liu Qingyan nodded speechlessly, when will his father make jokes about himself like this? "Go and see your mother, she may not have seen you for a long time."

"Yes." Liu Qingyan replied and went to the front yard.So he lived at home with peace of mind. Except for sickness, he just stayed with his mother every day, or brought books that he hadn't read before, and just swayed like this, and he has already settled down. It's been three days.

In Luanyi Palace.

Concubine Yan Guifei mentioned to Emperor Hengde a few days ago about letting Cheng Muze go to the Guards, and it happened this morning, and she was very happy in her heart. Since the previous incident passed, Emperor Hengde has basically stopped going to Yang Sizi's place Well, even though a group of beautiful women were selected to enter the palace before, how could it compare to her favor?Not to mention that Emperor Hengde seems to have no intention of accepting male favors now.

"Ma'am, a letter from His Highness." Lan Xi opened the curtain and sent in a letter.
