I, Liu Bian, the hero

Chapter 46
The next morning, Cai Yan still woke up earlier than Liu Bian.

After waking up, he saw that the hands of the man beside the couch were still very irregular, with one hand on her belly and the other on her chest.

Compared with the time when she first entered the palace, now she no longer makes a fuss, and even weighed her chest a little bit, secretly comparing the gap with Empress He, and the result made her dismayed. The young woman who is nearly thirty years old is indeed not just Fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls can be compared.

She got up gently, put on her clothes, and immediately sat by the couch and looked at the person on the couch.

Seeing his sleepy appearance with his mouth slightly open and even a little drooling, she couldn't help laughing.

Then, she thought of Mr. Wei that her sister mentioned yesterday, and thought of Mr. Wei's upcoming marriage.

At that time, she was only at a loss, but now, there was no sadness at all, just a sense of loss.

"In the last life...?"

Looking at Liu Bian who was sleeping soundly, she murmured.

When listening to Liu Bian say that last night, she felt amused for a while, and even a little dissatisfied, dissatisfied that Liu Bian used such a lie to deceive her.

But for some reason, she could faintly feel some sincerity.

"If people really have a previous life, who was I in the last life, and who is he?" 』

She thought to herself.

Of course, she just thought about such absurd things with nothing to do, and after waiting for about an hour, she put them behind her.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, it's time to wake up."

She shook his arm lightly.

"Well……"

Liu Bian, who was in a deep sleep, slowly woke up, opened his sleepy eyes, and immediately, those eyes gradually became clear, and his face also showed the usual 'toothy smile' when he succeeded in teasing her. .

"Do, what are you doing?" Cai Yan suddenly became nervous, her face flushed a little.

After all, since entering the palace, she has always held a passive attitude of not cooperating with Liu Bianding's hugging her to sleep. As long as she does not violate the red line, she will let him, neither resisting nor pandering. The experience gained from long-term struggle tells She, this is the best way to show your attitude.

But yesterday she took the initiative to take his arm, which made her feel a little guilty when she recalled last night, for fear that this guy would make an inch.

Under her flustered gaze, Liu Bian explained with a smile: "It's nothing, I just remembered what you told me last night, that Wei Zhongdao was about to get married... Good thing! No one will compete with me now Ji. Tsk tsk, this is called destiny."

Forcibly sending someone to take me into the palace, what kind of fate is it?
Cai Yan glanced at Liu Bian unhappily, and urged: "It's getting late, Your Highness should get up quickly, the Queen will be surprised if it's late."

As she said that, she fetched Liu Bian's clothes from the side, helped him put them on, and said: "I still want to talk to my sister more, can you send someone to invite my sister to the palace today?"

"..."

Liu Bian paused in his hands, looked at Cai Yan with a strange expression, and said, "You know I sat for more than an hour yesterday, right?"

Recalling yesterday's scene, Cai Yan suppressed a smile and said, "It's not just you who are suffering, I think my brother-in-law and his brother were also suffering at that time."

"That's what you said." Liu Bian said dissatisfied, "I was the one who delivered the message yesterday, okay? Zhao Chun can't stand it anymore."

Cai Yan helped him tie his clothes and said: "My brother-in-law and his brothers are half-farming and half-studying in Mount Tai, and rarely see outsiders. Please forgive me, Your Highness.... Besides, today I only intend to invite my sister to come and sit down." Sit down, I guess my brother-in-law and the others are not willing to come again."

Then there is no problem, Liu Bian said casually: "You can tell Zhao Chun later."

In all fairness, he still wants to win over Yang Xu and his son, but Yang Yu and Yang Dan really don't know how to communicate with others, so he is going to hand it over to Cai Yan—with Cai Yan's relationship, Yang Xu and his son should be the best. People here.

In the afternoon of the same day, when Liu Bian went to Chongde Hall to read the memorial, Zhao Chun was ordered to leave the palace again and came to Yang Biao's residence.

Just like what Cai Yan said, Liu Bian felt that he had nothing in common with Yangqin and Yangdan, but in fact the same was true of the Yang brothers. When he learned that Zhao Chun came to invite him again, Yangqin's complexion suddenly changed, until Zhao Chun said that it was just On behalf of Cai Yan, Cai Zhenji was invited alone, and Yang Qin was relieved.

For this reason, Cai Zhenji said to Yang Qin in private: "I thought that Shihou didn't treat my husband badly yesterday, and you said the same thing yourself, why..."

Indeed, after Yang and his wife returned to Yang Biao's home yesterday, Yang Biao also asked Yang, "How did Shihou treat you and his wife today?"

Yang Qin said that Shi Hou treated his wife and brother very politely. After all, he was just not good at communicating, and he was not stupid. How could he not know that Liu Bian had been passing messages to him?It's just that the age difference between the two is more than ten years, and their status and identities are very different, and they have no common language at all.

It can only be said that the Yangchen brothers are still inexperienced in the world. After all, Liu Bei and Cao Cao chatted very speculatively with Liu Bian.

Around evening, when Liu Bian returned to Jiafang Hall, Cai Zhenji had already gone back, leaving only Cai Yan sitting behind the piano table in a daze.

Liu Bian walked over on tiptoe, quietly passed his hand under her ribs, and gently hugged her.

Cai Yan was startled at first, her body tensed up subconsciously, and then she relaxed again, after all, there was only one person in the palace who would treat her like this.

"Your Highness, I'm not in the mood to play around."

"Huh?" Liu Bian also saw Cai Yan's sad face at this time, and asked in confusion, "What's the matter, you don't get along well with your sister?"

"no……"

Cai Yan shook her head and said: "Today I asked my sister about her, and I realized how difficult it has been for her these past few years... Since she married the Yang family, she hasn't touched the piano for more than three years. She has never touched books and paper, besides doing farm work with her mother-in-law, she also has to take care of her two sons, Yangfa and Yangcheng, who are naturally weak..."

Liu Bian listened to her quietly, and asked, "You want to help her but don't know what to do?"

Cai Yan hesitated to speak.

Seeing this, Liu Bian smiled and said: "Your sister's matter, in the final analysis, is short of money. I can arrange an official position for your brother-in-law and the others at least six hundred shi, and even arrange them to work in Luoyang, so that you The sister's matter is settled, and you can meet again anytime."

"This……"

Cai Yan bit her lip lightly, hesitatingly said: "Is it not too good?"

Liu Bian knew that she was already moved, so he called Zhao Chun and told about Brother Yangqin.

Zhao Chun immediately said: "Your Highness, this matter is easy. I can try to let the Hongdu sect learn to enlist the Yang brothers as servants under the sect, with a rank of six hundred stones."

"Fine, let's do it."

"Yes."

Of course, although Zhao Chun assisted Liu Bian, although he had a bright future in the future, he could not arrange an official position like Liu Baishi, so when Liu Bian and Cai Yan were having dinner, he came to Changqiu Palace and asked his brother Zhao Zhong for help.

"Yang Xu's son?" Zhao Zhong was a little hesitant when he heard that, after all, Yang Xu was a party member.

But he did not refuse, after all, this was Shihou's request.

Furthermore, if Yangxu's son accepted the official position in this way, would Yangxu have the nerve to be an enemy to them in the future?
This is a great opportunity to disintegrate the party.

So he readily agreed, and immediately sent someone to arrange the matter.

The Hongdu school is controlled by the palace attendant, how many people are there? Isn't it easy?
In the early morning of the next day, before Liu Bian and Cai Yan got up, Zhao Zhong had already delivered the writ of expropriation to Zhao Chun.

After Liu Bian got up, he read it again, and when he saw some problems, he smiled and praised: "Zhao Changshi's action is very fast, and it was done in one night... Oh, now he should be called Zhongguohou."

Zhao Chun and You Rongyan said with a smile: "Serving Shihou is serving the country, my brother naturally dare not neglect. Shihou, look at this order, do you want Cai Ji to hand it over to Mrs. Yang or ..."

Liu Bian glanced at Cai Yan, who was hard to speak, and said with a smile: "You can send it there in person later, and pick up Wenji and her sister by the way, and let them chat more while her sister is still in Luoyang. .”

"Yes."

Zhao Chun bowed and retreated.

When noon was approaching, Zhao Chun came to Yang Biao's mansion in person again, invited Yang Qi, Yang Dan and Cai Zhenji, and handed over the order of expropriation to the Yang brothers.

Yang Qi was shocked and angry, feeling that her brother had been insulted, and refused to accept it.

Cai Zhenji was a little moved, but she didn't dare to offend her husband, so she could only say: "It's probably because my sister asked Shi Hou, and when I go to see her later, I will return this thing. Husband, don't get angry."

Only then did Yang Fen look pale.

After a while, Cai Zhenji followed Zhao Chunlai to the palace, and when she saw her younger sister Cai Yan, she took out the conquest warrant and said with a wry smile, "What is this younger sister doing?"

Cai Yan hesitated and said: "After hearing what my sister said yesterday, I wanted to help but I couldn't do anything, so I told Shi Hou about my sister's hard work at her husband's house..."

"It seems that Shi Hou really dotes on you."

Cai Zhenji smiled and said: "Thank you, sister, and also thank you Shihou, but please ask Shihou to take back this appointment."

Cai Yan hesitated to speak, but finally accepted the confiscation certificate.

After Liu Bian came back in the evening, Cai Yan told Liu Bian about the matter unhappily, and Liu Bian was not surprised at all.

He smiled and gave Cai Yan an idea and said: "This matter is simple. Tomorrow I will send Zhao Chun to invite Yang Qi to the palace. You come forward to scold him first, and then I come forward to scold him again, and he will be scolded smoothly." He will accept it."

"Really?" Cai Yan was surprised and suspicious.

"Listen to me." Liu Bian said a few words to Cai Yan with a smile.

The next day, Liu Bian sent Zhao Chun to invite Yangqin to the palace. Although Yangqin was reluctant, and even guessed that it might be because of the confiscation certificate, he dared not refuse, so he bit the bullet and came to Jiafang Palace .

Immediately, Cai Yan followed what Liu Bian said, and scolded Yang Qi: "...Brother-in-law, you only care about your own reputation, but you don't understand my sister's hard work every day. You have to do farm work and take care of the two. Sick son, she even took care of your ex-wife's son without complaint..."

"This... Since she is my wife, it should be taken for granted..." Yang Qin retorted with her face flushed.

Guessing that the time was almost up, Cai Yan walked away and was replaced by Liu Bian.

He smiled and said to the blushing Yang Qi: "Wen Ji loves her sister, so don't take offense."

Yang Qin nodded and said: "I don't dare, but I'm sorry that I can't agree to the conquest. Please Shi Hou take it back."

Liu Bian was not angry either, and said aggressively, "Why can't you accept it? Do you feel that your talent is not worthy of the position of servant? What are you guys doing so hard in your hometown?"

Yang Qin was ashamed and angry, her face flushed and she said, "I just feel that this official position is going to be wrong..."

"What do you mean brother?"

Liu Bian suddenly put on a serious face, and said in a deep voice: "I am the future prince, and I will grant you an official position. Why is it wrong?"

Yang Qin was startled when he heard the words, and quickly argued: "No, no, Shi Hou misunderstood, I don't mean that..."

At this moment, Liu Bian laughed and said, "I was just joking, don't take it seriously."

After that, he looked at Yang Qi seriously and said: "I appreciate Brother Yang and his brothers who are working half-farm and half-study in their hometown, willing to stay in poverty. So that your brother can study with peace of mind, and by the way, it can also reduce the burden on Ling Tang and the honored wife."

As he said, he took out the writ from his pocket and handed it to Yang Qi: "You take this thing first, if you don't know whether you should accept it, I suggest you go back and ask Dr. Yang for advice, or you can ask your father."

Although Yang Qi hesitated, she finally accepted the warrant.

After returning to Yang Biao's mansion, he asked Yang Biao about this matter. Yang Biao looked at him strangely and said, "Shihou has already talked about this, why can't my nephew figure it out? You have to know, Shi Hou is the future prince, the future monarch of my great man, you can’t even accept his appointment, so why is your brother working hard to study in his hometown? Don’t be stupid, even your father will acquiesce in your agreement.”

Yang Qin hesitated, but finally did not return the requisition certificate, and decided to ask his father first.
