Liu Song Hanque

Donghae~~~
A giant steam ship is constantly puffing out smoke, connecting itself with the sky.

Riding the wind and waves, this huge ship set sail from the newly built pier and headed for the blue sea.

"Lingyun, do you really want to go to Japan instead of Nanyang?"

"nature!"

A middle-aged scholar whose face was covered with wrinkles but could still be seen as a romantic man folded his fan.

"If it wasn't for Xie Hui's bastard who came to the East China Sea at that time, I would have arrived in the country of Wa with Dao Yanzhi! This time, no matter what, I have to go to the country of Wa to have a look."

"Why? Brother Liu, don't you want to?"

Another middle-aged man walked out of the cabin. Although the years had left many marks on his face, it was not difficult to see how handsome he was when he was young.

He looked at the sea and said angrily, "Of course I don't want to go."

"Although your younger brother Xie Hui has led troops to control the Wa Kingdom, the basic construction has not yet been completed. Compared with the current Central Plains, it is a remote country. What is there to see?"

"shallow!"

Xie Lingyun gave the man a contemptuous look.

"Admiring these four places is something new and original. If there is black smoke billowing like the Central Plains everywhere, it will lose a lot of fun."

The man glanced slightly out of the corner of his eyes: "Lingyun, you have indeed become more courageous recently."

Xie Lingyun suddenly exploded like a cat whose tail had been trampled on, and said with a guilty conscience, "Your Majesty, I..."

Liu Yizhen waved his hand: "I am no longer Your Majesty, don't call me that."

"The current me is just a playboy who inherited billions of dollars at a young age and lost all worries."

With those operations before, Liu Yizhen's net worth is increasing at a terrifying speed.

If nothing unexpected happens... Probably the throne of the richest man in the family will only belong to his descendants in the next few hundred years.

"Suddenly, a lot of troubles have disappeared overnight, but it is also very empty."

Liu Yizhen's Versailles attracted Xie Lingyun's contempt for a while. He made a face at Liu Yizhen and slipped to the deck, enjoying the salty sea breeze.

"Sanggong is bullying Lingyun again."

Several graceful figures walked out of the cabin one after another, naturally they were Wang Shi, Xie Shi, Guo Shi and He Lian Shi.

"What is bullying? It's him asking for a beating!"

"However, it's okay to go to the country of Wo, and take a look at Che'er and Xie Hui on the way, by the way, and..."

Liu Yizhen stroked Wang's beautiful hair: "It's better to drop by to pay homage to father-in-law."

Wang's eyes darkened when she heard Liu Yizhen's words, but she soon cheered up and complained: "Father, it's true, he is still not at ease in his later years, and he insisted on coming to his fief, but now he can't go back. went."

Liu Yizhen stepped forward to put his arms around Wang, and whispered into his ear: "He did it on purpose."

"Ok?"

"Haha."

"Forget it, this state affairs and so on have nothing to do with me."

"Since relatives have chosen to be buried there, those of us who are children must go and take care of them."

Liu Yizhen leaned into Wang's ear again: "What did you call me just now?"

Wang's long and narrow eyelashes flickered hurriedly: "Master."

"Call me husband from now on."

"what?"

"Ah what, this sounds more pleasant to the ear."

Afterwards, Liu Yizhen turned around and said to the three girls beside him, "It's the same with you."

A red glow suddenly appeared on the faces of the four girls, and Guo Shi even lightly tapped Liu Yizhen's chest: "Why are you becoming more and more dishonest?"

"Where is it not serious?"

"It's just that I was so unlike me before, so you don't feel like me."

"Come on, call and listen."

Seeing that the four refused, Liu Yizhen also showed a ferocious look, chasing the four girls and running around on the deck.

"cut."

Xie Lingyun, who was driven to the deck, was even more troubled at this time, looking at Liu Yizhen who was letting himself go more and more with eyes full of resentment...

"Suddenly understand why some people left a good emperor and quit."

"That's it, sooner or later you will be a fool!"

"Cough cough!"

An old cough interrupted Xie Lingyun's slander, and Xie Lingyun hurried forward to help him: "My lord, why are you here?"

"It's a bit stuffy in the cabin, come out to get some air."

Wang Xiu tremblingly walked out of the cabin leaning on a crutch, and smiled knowingly when he saw Liu Yizhen.

"Prince, don't laugh, if you don't care about him, he will go to heaven!"

Xie Lingyun really wanted to draw Wang Xiu into his camp to fight against Liu Yizhen, at least not let Liu Yizhen keep targeting him, but obviously, Wang Xiu disappointed him...

"Isn't that nice? Young man!"

After that, Wang Xiu looked at Xie Lingyun coldly: "It's you! Every time you go out, you have to bring back a few concubines. Your current concubine has at least a few hundred? This is a bit offensive!"

Xie Lingyun: "???"

He pointed at Liu Yizhen desperately: "Isn't he outrageous? Although I have many women, at least I'm always in the room!"

"This boat belongs to him. Can you control what he wants to do on the boat?"

Xie Lingyun was speechless for a while.

People are not old!
People in this world are not old!

Just when Liu Yizhen caught Xie Shi and He Lianshi and was about to join hands, a crisp "Daddy" interrupted their actions.

The three of them sorted out their wrinkled clothes in a bit of a panic, and looked at a bunch of children walking on the deck, a little embarrassed: "Why did you come up here? Have you finished all the homework assigned by the prince today?"

"No."

Liu An, the leader, said in a childish voice: "But Uncle Xie said that the scenery on the deck is beautiful, let us come up and rest."

Thank you Lingyun!
Liu Yizhen clenched his fists secretly, and then said to his children in a pleasant manner: "You write and play first, Daddy has something to do with your Uncle Xie."

"okay!"

"Uncle Xie is going to be beaten again!"

"Let's bet how long Uncle Xie will be beaten."

"A cup of tea?"

"No! A stick of incense!"

"No! It must be an hour!"

"..."

It's just a pity that because Xie Lingyun didn't show up at dinner, these children didn't know the real answer to the bet.

evening~
Liu Yizhen supported his waist and came to the deck, looking at the sea outside with some vicissitudes.

"It's rare to see you free at night."

"Hiss! I can't do it!"

Liu Yizhen showed pain on his face: "They used to pretend to be reserved, but now they are all like wolves and tigers, and I always have to rest."

"You young people... hey."

Wang Xiu came to Liu Yizhen's side, held the railing with his hands, and stood together quietly.

"how do you feel?"

"Cool!"

Liu Yizhen had a happy look on his face: "I've never been so happy before!"

"In the past, when I went to a place, I had to think about the population and households, how the farmland is being cultivated, and whether the officials here are doing their job properly..."

"But now, when I'm in a place, I just need to think about where it's more fun, what food is better here, that's all."

Liu Yizhen pointed to his face: "Didn't the prince notice that my dark circles have disappeared recently? Besides, my skin has improved, and I'm more energetic!"

Wang Xiu stared at Liu Yizhen's face and nodded, "Indeed."

Liu Yizhen patted his delicate face with his hands: "So I didn't object to Xie Lingyun just now when he said that he wanted to go to Japan. After all, Mount Fuji there is still good, and there are cherry blossoms... Oh, there are no cherry blossoms on that island now, but you can take them with you." Go and order sakura seeds."

Liu Yizhen was muttering to himself, and his expression became more visible to the naked eye, which made Wang Xiu also smile.

"In that case, the minister can rest assured."

Wang Xiu picked up his crutches: "Your Majesty, let me put you down at the pier in front."

Hearing this, Liu Yizhen froze for a moment.

"My lord, but this boat is bumpy and uncomfortable? Shall I let the boat go slower?"

"Not at all."

Wang Xiu's eyes were a little blurred: "There are indeed many voices in the Central Plains in recent years, and they are all voices that I have never heard before."

"These voices are roughly similar to what His Majesty said, but there are some differences."

"Since Your Majesty has found a new direction now, I should take advantage of this last time to take a good look at the world and listen to this voice."

Wang Xiu saw the disbelief in Liu Yizhen's eyes, and laughed at himself, "What? Does Your Majesty think that I'm late?"

After realizing it, Liu Yizhen waved his hands again and again: "It's not too late, it's not too late."

"It's just that I didn't expect...you and I will have a day of separation."

"..."

The wind at night was blowing the silence, the two of them just stood at the bow of the boat, both at a loss for what to do.

There seemed to be a lot to say, but when it reached his mouth, it was chewed up by the wind and swallowed back into his stomach.

Silent all night.

It wasn't until Chen Xi visited the sea that Wang Xiu held back his first words: "Your Majesty, I still have one thing I don't know."

"what?"

"When your majesty was young, that is, when he was named Guiyang Duke by Emperor Taizu and stationed in Guanzhong, his mind was already different from ordinary people."

"Later, I also inquired privately. His Majesty's previous performance was completely inconsistent with that in Guanzhong. You are like two different people."

"Only what happened later, and the great cause that His Majesty told the minister... These are definitely beyond the imagination of a young man."

"I'm leaving soon, and I hope Your Majesty will help me solve my doubts!"

Liu Yizhen was silent for a long time, and finally let out a foul breath: "I knew it."

"I may be able to hide it from everyone, but with you, I still have no confidence."

"After all, you are my long history at that time."

Liu Yizhen turned around and walked to the entrance of the cabin: "If the prince is willing to listen, come here."

Without any hesitation, Wang Xiu followed Liu Yizhen into the cabin.

This time, they chatted for a long, long time.

When Wang Xiu reappeared, his eyes were already red and swollen.

When others asked about it, Wang Xiu was sometimes so excited that his face flushed, and sometimes he was so sad that he burst into tears, unable to say a word.

It was only when he saw the boundless land that Wang Xiu choked up and said, "Huaxia Yongchang!"

The boat continued on until the next pier.

This is the place where Liu Yizhen and Wang Xiu agreed to part.

"The prince, the prince!"

On this day, Liu Yizhen's wife, Mrs. Wang, personally came to Wang Xiu's cabin and knocked on the cabin door.

"My lord, Mr. Xiang said he won't see you off, please forgive me."

After knocking several times, Wang Xiu's cabin door never opened.

Feeling suspicious, Mrs. Wang pushed open the door of the cabin by herself.

Soon, everyone on the ship gathered in Wang Xiu's cabin, staring at Wang Xiu's bed in sadness or shock.

Finally, Liu Yizhen, who came belatedly, came to Wang Xiu's bed and sat there holding Wang Xiu's right hand.

"It's still a bit late."

Seeing this scene, Xie Lingyun also lost his former liveliness, and moved to Liu Yizhen's side: "Leave the prince's funeral to me?"

Liu Yizhen shook his head.

"No one is qualified to deal with his funeral except me."

"Then do you want to notify the prince's relatives?"

"Have you ever seen a dead man give a dead man a funeral?"

"And he's always been alone, how can he have any other relatives?"

Liu Yizhen had been suppressing the emotions in his heart all the time, until now he couldn't help but reveal a little bit.

But Liu Yizhen quickly collected his mood and stood up again.

"Leave it all to me, you don't have to worry."

Liu Yizhen asked Xie Lingyun to find a shop in the surrounding towns to handle funeral affairs. He used a simple coffin to disguise Wang Xiu, and buried him on the spot in an unknown mountain forest.

The mountains and forests are very simple, except for the trees, there are no flowers and colors lingering among the vines, and there are no endless chirping of birds, beasts and insects.

It seems that the existence here is born to wait for a person.

A man like them.

"Without you, everything is really brand new."

Liu Yizhen didn't know whether to cry or laugh, and looked at Wang Xiu's tomb: "You really know how to pick your time, and I don't know if you did it on purpose."

"By the way, if I don't tell you those things, will the breath in your chest still be there? Can you last a few more years?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't have it, fulfill your ambition in this life, and know the smoke and dust behind you, the emperor doesn't have the nourishment of your life."

"..."

Rambling for a long time.

Unlike in the cabin, this time it was Liu Yizhen's turn that his eyes were red and swollen.

"The soul is back! Dongfang can't be trusted."

"A long man is thousands of feet, but the soul is a little bit."

"The soul is back! The south can't be stopped."

"Zhenzhen Viper, seal the fox for thousands of miles."

"The soul is back! The West can't stop."

"Spin into the thunder abyss, and the quicksand will scatter."

"The soul is back! The north can't stop."

"Zengbing is so high, flying snow is flying thousands of miles away."

"The soul is back... Only this place of peace of mind is my hometown."

He stayed until the seventh day, helped Wang Xiu to remove the fallen leaves from his face, and Liu Yizhen returned to the boat.

"let's go."

"This time, I will go further."

……

The sailboat sailed away, behind Liu Yizhen, there were a lot of taciturn Han Que.

They are rooted in the soil, skipping the endless years, guarding the mottled traces on their bodies.

Perhaps during this period, I have been exposed to the wind and the sun,
But it cannot be denied that they have always stood tall and straight on this land they are proud of, never yielding!

For thousands of years, it has never been like this!
If the scars and suffering on their bodies can be interpreted, there are only four words——

"Huaxia Yongchang!"
