Liu Song Hanque

Chapter 296 Xinglin Courtyard

The emperor said a word, and all the officials broke their legs.

Although Xu Xi was a prefect in Puyang, he resigned a long time ago and is now a hermit in Kuaiji Mountain.

Kuaiji Mountain is located in Kuaiji County, which used to belong to Yangzhou and was later divided into Qiaozhou.Now Qiaozhou has been revoked, and it has merged with the surrounding counties and counties into Hangzhou.

After the imperial court order was conveyed to the governor of Hangzhou, it immediately attracted the highest level of attention.The governor of Hangzhou, the governor of Kuaiji County, and the magistrate of Shanyin County, under the heavy net of the government, finally caught Xu Xi.

Xu Xi, who had just finished his consultation, suddenly heard that the Son of Heaven was calling, and all kinds of feelings came to his heart.

Selling oneself to the emperor's family is the simplest wish of ordinary people in the peaceful era.

Although Liu Song has only established the country for four years now, it has been more than ten years since Liu Yu took control of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Under Liu Yu's governance for more than ten years, politics is still much clearer than before.

In addition, in the early years, Liu Yu started his business by quelling the chaos of Sun En and Lu Xun, which plagued the south of the Yangtze River, and brought new order and peace to the people here.This grace, the people in Jiangnan must recognize it.

Since Liu Yizhen came to power, he has not bothered the people. It is a state policy to recuperate and rehabilitate, so that the people in the south of the Yangtze River can live and work in peace and contentment.

Therefore, it is hard to say about other places, but the impression of Emperor Liu in the minds of the people in Jiangnan is still good.

Now called by the emperor, Xu Xi naturally took his son Xu Qiufu to Jiankang happily.

As for seclusion?

What a seclusion!
Do not ask!Asking is the trend, anyway, it is definitely not an opinion on the court!
Escorted by officials at all levels, the father and son received the highest courtesy since birth.Along the way, no matter how high-level or how old the officials met, they all greeted the father and son with smiles.

This little episode also made Xu Xi sigh with emotion: "When I resigned in the past, I was only greeted coldly by two or three little officials with pens and pens, but today I am greeted with smiles by all the officials in purple ribbons and scarlet robes. I really know how warm I am."

After Xu Xi came to Jiankang from Kuaiji, he first arranged a different hospital for him, but he was not in a hurry to summon him, which made Xu Xi's originally happy mood become uneasy.

Even the life in this other courtyard is like a fairy, not only there are more than ten waiters and servants.The daily food is even more delicious in the palace, and it can't make Xu Xi feel at ease.

He didn't come to travel, but came for the future.

The emperor didn't summon him, which made Xu Xi couldn't help guessing.

The ancients often say that "accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger".

The meaning of the Son of Heaven has always been as elusive as the sky. It is often a mild wind and light rain today, and a violent storm tomorrow.

Xu Xi was also afraid that the emperor didn't need him anymore, if that was the case, the few days of success would be in vain.

Fortunately, Xu Xi didn't worry for too long.

In the early morning of the third day, Xu Xi, who lived in another courtyard, was woken up by knocking on the door.

When he opened the door, he saw a group of people dressed as servants in the palace driving a carriage to pick up Xu Xi in another courtyard.

Xu Xi excitedly got into the luxuriously decorated carriage, and kept calming down in it, and began to think about how he should respond after seeing the emperor in order to leave a good impression on the emperor.

The carriage set off, the wheels rolling.

Through the raised curtains around him, the prosperity of Jiankang City poured into Xu Xifeichi's eyes.

The beautiful land in the south of the Yangtze River, the imperial state of Jinling.

Winding with green water, passing Zhulou far away.

The flying scorpion clips the road, and the Yang Yang shades the imperial ditch.

Condensed wings and high cover, stacked drums to send Huaqi.

Dedicated Yuntai table, fame can be received!
At this time, Xu Xi felt that his future was like this Kangzhuang Yudao, incomparably... eh?Where is this going?Why did you still get off the Royal Road?

Xu Xi suddenly ran out of the city in a carriage, which made his heart tremble.

Somewhat panicked, he asked the driver outside: "Can't I wait until the heavenly womb?"

The emperor returned indifferently: "Sir, please be safe and don't be impatient. Your Majesty is waiting for you elsewhere."

After the carriage left Jiankang City, it galloped eastward for half an hour before stopping. Xu Xi opened the curtain and got out of the carriage, only to realize that he had arrived at a grand scene.

I saw rows of apricot trees neatly swaying their branches and leaves, exuding a slightly sweet apricot fragrance.

Looking into the distance along the apricot tree, there are actually a few houses with black tiles and white walls dotted in it, which looks very beautiful.

In addition, what Xu Xi saw at a glance was the emperor Lubo in the depths.

The Son of Heaven is here!

This caused the blood in Xu Xi's whole body to pause for a moment.

"Also please come with me, sir."

The waiter guided Xu Xi to enter, and stepped on the falling petals along the way, Xu Xi was extremely nervous.

Walking through the apricot forest and coming to the front of the house, Xu Xi boldly looked up at the plaque on the door——

【Xinglinyuan】

Entering the house again, the winding paths inside are secluded, simple and elegant.If one ignores the Emperor's Forbidden Army wearing solid armor and holding sharp knives in the inner and outer circles, Xu Xi would like to live in it to spend his old age in peace.

After crossing the long corridor, the waiter stopped in the most heavily guarded courtyard, and whispered to Xu Xi: "Your Majesty is inside, please be careful in your words and deeds, sir."

"call!"

Xu Xi tidied up his clothes, and after confirming that there was nothing inappropriate, he lowered his head and hurriedly walked into it.

"Crassman Xu Xi pays homage to the emperor! The emperor is safe!"

"I'm safe."

The gentle male voice made Xu Xi fall into it immediately.

Xu Xi who got the response straightened his back and looked forward.

What an amazing picture is this?
Raise your head and look at the blue sky with white eyes, as bright as a jade tree before the wind...

The man holding the jade cup in front of him almost satisfied all Xu Xi's fantasies about the emperor.

Just like the presence of heaven and man, ordinary people dare not look directly at him, with unparalleled majesty in every gesture, and the soft and blue holy light covering the whole body, everything in the world will feel ashamed in front of him.

"Mister has been exhausted all the way, so I want him to rest for a few days, and I hope he will not be offended."

At this time, Lieutenant Liu Yizhen's appearance made Wang Hong, Xie Hui and other high-ranking officials see it, and they might want to eat it——

We are all courtiers, so why can't His Majesty treat us so kindly...

Xu Xi was naturally flattered, and at the same time, a touch of emotion emerged in his heart.

It turns out that His Majesty did not summon me before because of my consideration!I actually slandered His Majesty!What a vain son of man!

What Liu Yizhen said next made Xu Xi feel a wave of warmth rushing towards Tianling Gai.

"In addition, this Xinglin Courtyard still needs time to repair. Because it is a new building, its interior decoration has not yet been fully equipped. It would be a bit neglectful to use such a house to support the husband. By the way... the husband likes this house No? The apricot groves outside are all carefully selected and transported by people from various places. If you don’t like it, sir, you can adjust it again.”

These……

Those ones……

All for me?

Xu Xi only felt that he was about to suffocate.
