Chapter 28 Cutting the Fan

In the evening, in the guest courtyard of Qingwang's mansion, Liu Yao sat in front of the bookcase in the study, practicing his words very seriously. From childhood to age, as long as he picks up a brush and starts writing, he will involuntarily calm down. When his mother was alive, he practiced and read harder than now, mainly to meet his mother's expectations. Later, King Jing did not urge him in this regard. Every time he took a pen, it was basically to soothe his inner irritability.

The toe that was injured at noon is still faintly painful. It makes him feel bored involuntarily. Although the doctor of Qingwang Mansion is very powerful, the pain has eased a lot after helping him with a few acupuncture points. But for Liu Yao, this way of injury is a humiliation. So, no matter what, he can't calm down. Therefore, he has to endure the pain of his feet and write here.

At this time, the sun is about to go down, shining with the last light, dyeing the sky and the earth into a golden yellow. Through the open window, the golden and warm sunset reflected on him, and his words seemed to add gold rim, showing some solemnity.

Liu Yao's original chaotic mood gave birth to some peace under such a warm reflection.

Sure enough, he still likes to write. The soft tip of the brush smoothly and smoothly crossed the white rice paper, leaving wild and beautiful gly shapes. The madness and annoyance in his heart seemed to be released with the thick ink through the wild glyphs he wrote. Every time he wrote a big word, his mood was more peaceful.

Gradually, Liu Yao stopped writing until the sun went down and there was no more afterglow. At this time, several wild and enchanting grasses have been scattered on the table. He wrote the best official script, because he practiced the most before. But now he loves wild grass the most. Because when writing wild grass, there is a kind of unrestrained ease and wildness between the pen.

Called the servant to clean up, and Liu Yao limped out of the study. Lanterns were hung in the corridor outside. In the dim light, he suddenly felt that such a quiet moment was actually very good.

There are two entrances in this guest courtyard, with a study and a living room in the front and a living bedroom in the back. Qingwang Mansion has great financial resources, so even if it is a guest house, it is also beautiful. However, it is still much worse than his yard in Lingnan. In Lingnan, someone will help him get whatever he wants. Therefore, his yard is full of rare and famous flowers; his study is mostly full of ancient books and famous paintings; his room is mostly decorated with antique porcelain...

However, in the past two years, he has not been comfortable in Lingnan. On the contrary, when he arrived at the capital and the guest house of the Qingwang Mansion, his heart was more stable. It's a little ironic to talk about this matter in detail. But Liu Yao did not feel sad or embarrassed at this time.

Because he is always worried that he will be plotted in Lingnan, but here, King Qing will let someone to protect him. This is really not something that can be explained clearly with embarrassment or sadness. Or no matter what, if you think thoroughly, you will be numb. At least compared with the daytime, he is so easy to rise, and at this moment, his mood is calm like a pool of still water. Because for the first time, he realized that it was a good thing to live well.

Liu Yao refused the support of the little man and walked back to his bedroom alone. He vaguely heard that King Jing would leave for Lingnan tomorrow. But so far, his father hasn't asked anyone to come and send him a message. I don't know if he really forgot his son? Or does he not want him to see him off at all?

Liu Yao touched his chest, which was still empty, but he did not feel pain. It is thought that he has accepted the current reality in his heart. However, when his father leaves Beijing tomorrow, will he go to see him off? He didn't ask anyone to send him a message, does that mean he doesn't want him to appear? But as a son of man, if he really doesn't appear at that time, his reputation in the capital will be over. Unfilial...

Just as Liu Yao was thinking about whether to appear in front of King Jing tomorrow, King Jing came to him. Liu Yao couldn't help but be stunned when he saw King Jing standing in front of his bedroom. Since the horse wrestling incident, King Jing has never taken the initiative to say a word to him. After arriving in the capital, I don't know why they lived in the Qingwang Mansion, and King Jing never took the initiative to see him. This is the first time that King Jing stepped into the small courtyard where he lived.

"Father." After the initial surprise, Liu Yao quickly calmed down. Maybe hardships can make people grow. At this moment, although he was surprised and excited in the face of King Jing, he was not as angry and wronged as before.

"Well, come in. I have something to tell you."

King Jing has always been cold, and his tone is also cold and cold. But Liu Yao was very surprised that he could speak to him calmly. In the past, even when he met every day, he ignored Liu Yao's greetings. Recently, he actually took the initiative to talk to him. What happened?

Liu Yao didn't think it was because King Jing was leaving tomorrow that he suddenly remembered that he was the son who was going to stay in the capital for many years to be a proton for his Lingnan. So something must have happened, so important that he must tell him in person.

Liu Yao went into the bedroom with King Jing. King Jing sat on the low couch outside, and after Liu Yao consciously saluted him, he stood aside respectfully and silently. King Jing watched Liu Yao finish everything, and a little strange color flashed in his eyes. He didn't expect that Liu Yao would begin to learn to fade his greenness and become calm and mature in such a short time.

Although he was raised by that stupid woman, he inherited the blood of the Liu family. Previously, he thought that he had been raised by that stupid woman in his life, but now it seems that he has come to a conclusion a little early.

However, King Jing did not regret what he had done before. If Liu Yao can learn to grow up from this period of time, he will still be his heir. And if Liu Yao can't pass his test, it doesn't matter. Because he has many sons, he really doesn't mind choosing other heirs. Although his sons are more stupid now. But as long as he wants, he can choose one himself and slowly**.

Jing Wang has a new evaluation of Liu Yao. Originally, he really planned to banish him in the capital, but now he has changed his mind. But it's only five years. It's very short, and he can still afford to wait.

"I will leave Beijing tomorrow, and you will stay in the capital until you are 18 years old." King Jing didn't talk nonsense. He took out a wooden box and put it on several cases in front of him and said to Liu Yao, "You are my son. Staying in the capital is also for the stability of our Lingnan, so I can't make you feel too wronged. Here is a garden that I asked you to buy, and two shops, plus 10,000 taels of silver. These are all your belongings in the next five years. In five years, I won't let anyone send you money or anything else. If you want to live a better life here, you have to rely on yourself. Do you understand?"

Liu Yao was slightly stunned. He didn't expect King Jing to leave something for him. He thought that the next five years in the capital would depend on himself. He respectfully and calmly saluted King Jing: "Thank you, father, my son understands."

King Jing looked at Liu Yao, who was not angry or annoyed, and asked again with a serious face, "Do you really understand?"

Liu Yao looked up at Jing Wang with a stern look, but he still couldn't help feeling the pain. In the past five years, he has really been exiled to the capital. What does King Jing mean? Although his heart hurts, he still tried to keep his face unchanged and replied calmly, "In the next five years, no matter what happens, my son will not bother Lingnan. Father, please don't worry.

King Jing nodded, his face seemed to relax a little, and said with satisfaction from his answer, "As long as you can understand what I mean. I don't care about how you will be in the capital in the next five years, nor does Lingnan ask. You can rest assured that as long as you don't kill yourself, the idiots in the house will never bother you anymore.

Liu Yao really stopped now. In the past, King Jing always suppressed him. Not only did he pull out his hands and feet, but he even put on a meaningless attitude of allowing him to die last time. At this time, he told him that in the next five years, the people in the house can no longer bother him... What does his father think of him? He made the appearance of banishing him, but saved his life. Is it really the nature of father and son that he can't bear to be killed after all?

King Jing didn't care about the surprise and fluctuations in Liu Yao's heart. He continued with an unchanged look, "In addition to this matter, I have one more thing to tell you. The emperor left me in the capital for such a long time this time. The only thing he planned was to take back my control of Lingnan's military power.

"The right to collect troops?" Liu Yao was shocked. Their family is a hereditary vassal title. After several generations of operation, Lingnan is equivalent to a country in the Jingwang Mansion. In Lingnan, King Jing is the real king. It is fundamental to control a territory and hold military power. The reason why Jingwang Mansion can have such a strong control over the Lingnan boundary is that they control the military defense of Lingnan. Now, can't the emperor wait after all?

"Yes, the emperor wants to take back our military power. I came here to tell you about this, just to let you know that the Lingnan Jingwang Mansion in the eyes of people in the future must be very different from today's. If you want to live a stable life in the capital, it's better to restrain your nature in the future. King Jing stood up and said coldly, "If you are still as impulsive and reckless as you are now. You don't have to wait for those idiots in Lingnan to harm you, and you can kill yourself. Humph."

Jing Wang snorted coldly, raised his foot and walked out of the door. Liu Yao was inexplicably anxious. He couldn't help chasing two steps and asked King Jing, "Father, the emperor wants to collect the military power, which is the first step to reduce the vassals. Will you... hand over the military power or not?"

King Jing stopped, turned around and took a serious look at Liu Yao, and then said coldly, "These things are not what you can ask about. However, I can tell you that although I am the king of Lingnan, I am also a descendant of the Liu family. As a descendant of the Liu family, I will not oppose the Liu family. So don't worry about staying here."

King Jing left, but in the end he did not tell Liu Yao whether he would hand over the military power. However, since the emperor has taken action, it is bound to win. Lingnan Jingwang is the largest vassal king in the whole territory of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Liu Yao didn't expect that the emperor would be the first to test them. No, he never thought that the emperor would cut the vassals. If the vassal is really cut, will the future Jingwang Mansion still be the Jingwang Mansion?
