Because of some inhumane reasons, Liu She trusts and indulges in her own daughter, and hardly interferes in other things except her studies. However, the details and process of the matter still need to be understood, and he is also afraid that she will suffer.
It's just obvious that Liu She's worries are unnecessary. How could Jiang Pengji suffer so easily
Xu Ke was really busy. First, he arranged the servants on the farm, and then he came back to talk earnestly with Jiang Pengji. Before he had eaten a hot meal, Liu She, the head of the family, asked him to answer. Because of the previous shadow of fear, Xu Ke did not hide the details.
His eloquence is good, and his narration is clear and coherent. Liu She sat on the top of the head and listened with his eyes lowered slightly, as if he was enjoying it very much.
Mrs. Die smiled across the screen, "Erlang is really promising now, so my cousin can feel more at ease."
The girl was praised, but as a parent, she couldn't be too jumpy. She couldn't hide her smile, so she still had to be humble.
However, when Xu Ke said that Jiang Pengji had provoked many reserve soldiers, and even threatened that he would be ordered to slay bandits after successful training, Madam Die was so shocked that she almost threw the pinched dessert back into the food tray, and Liu She opened it abruptly. Eyes, with a little confusion in the eyes.
Madam Die didn't care about her reserved and graceful posture, and said sternly, "How can Erlang be so impulsive if a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall?"
In this regard, Liu She didn't say anything, only with a few strands of surprise on his face that others couldn't understand.
No one knew what he was thinking now. Madam Die's angry voice did not reach his ears, and the whole person was floating, as if in another dimension. For a long time, he gathered his erratic spirit, and his face was pale.
"Okay, Lan Ting is no longer a three-year-old child, and he knows what he is doing." Liu She said, interrupting Madam Die's words to Xu Ke to discourage Jiang Pengji, with a bit of burnout in her brows, and a bit of indescribable spirit , "Maybe this is destiny."
After he finished speaking, he went straight back to the main courtyard, and the candlelight under the corridor sometimes disappeared, sometimes on and off, pulling his shadow long.
Sitting in front of a few cases, Liu She spread out a map of Kun in Dongqing. There was a clearly marked area on it. It was the Hu County that Liu She once ruled. He stared at Hu Jun for half an hour, and clenched his fists slightly until he left a few months of teeth fingerprints on his palms.
After a long time, he said to the maid waiting outside the house, "Go and invite Lanting."
Because of the ancient timeline of sunrise and sunset, Jiang Pengji was ready to go to bed under the service of the maid at this time.
"Let's go, don't keep father waiting."
Suddenly receiving a message from Liu She, she frowned, got up, took the warm and heavy cloak handed over by Ta Xue, and put it on directly.
I don't know whether it was Liu She's return, or the recovery of all things in the spring, and even brought vitality to the desolate Liu Mansion, and the landscape in the courtyard was much more lush than when she first came. It's just that the moon and stars are sparse and the light is dim, and those scenes are on and off, but it's a bit weird.
When they arrived at the main courtyard, they bowed to Liu She according to the ceremony. The other party waved to her and said gently, "Lanting, come forward."
So she took a few steps forward, took a seat beside the several cases, and found that the father was staring at a map of Kun in Dongqing, fascinated.
Although it is a map of Kun, it is actually quite simple, not to mention the rivers and mountains, and even the size is not light.
"Lanting knows where is the county where his father took office?"
Liu She pushed the lamp on the table towards Jiang Pengji, so that she could see more clearly, "In the years since I left Hejian, as a father, I have also thought about whether there will be any resentment in Lan Ting's heart... By myself, I have to leave my homeland for a while, away from my flesh and blood."
Jiang Pengji looked up at him suspiciously, not understanding why Liu She suddenly brought up this topic.
"The place where my father took office is called Hu County, but the land is as big as a state." Jiang Pengji answered the previous question, avoiding the questions after him. After all, she is not Liu Lanting, so she has no position to answer, nor Can't give an answer.
Liu She's white fingertips caressed Hu County on the map of Kun, "Yes, Hu County... Before taking office as my father, it was still a famous barren land in Dongqing. The official family has repeatedly dispatched officers, but each of them died halfway or took office. , it is actually a dragon pond and a tiger's den, where there is no return."
It is good to say that Hu County is barren. Since the late Xia Dynasty, there has been a hard bone that is hard to chew.
The fields are vast, but barren and overgrown. There was a severe drought for ten years without a drop of rain, making it difficult for every family to survive. In order to survive, the strong men of every family became robbers, looting everywhere, selling their children and selling their daughters. the norm.
If you have a way, you can escape out of Hu County early, even if you are not as good as pigs and dogs in a foreign country, it is worse than suffering in this hell in Hu County.
Not only that, the disaster relief silver and grain distributed by the imperial court, after layers of exploitation and oppression by the squires, only left "rice grain" mixed with 90% of the soil in the hands of the common people. Disaster relief is carried out every year. Every year, the squires are rampant, the officials and officials are protecting each other, and the robbers are rampant!
Daxia was destroyed, and Dongqing took over this hard bone.
Before Liu She, there was no shortage of upright officials who wanted to govern, but without exception, it was a death to go!
As a result, Liu She became the longest-serving county governor in Hu County for more than a hundred years, and was even regarded as a god by the local people.
"What happened to my father back then, why was he dispatched to such a place like Longtan and Tiger's Den?"
Jiang Pengji frowned, Hu County is famous for its fierce reputation, but any young descendant who has some self-knowledge will not go to such a place to be an official, isn't it courting death? Liu's family in Dongqing is not a top class, but not everyone can despise it, and there should be some connections in the officialdom.
Liu She's answer was beyond Jiang Pengji's expectations, "It was voluntary for my father to put it to death and then live."
"Volunteer?"
Volunteering to die
Or is it that Liu She is 100% sure that he will survive in Hu County
No, put it to death and then live
At that time, someone really wanted to kill Liu She
"For others, Hu County is a place with no life and death, but for a father, it is a blessed place with a glimmer of life."
Liu She sighed with emotion, and in front of his eyes appeared in front of him, who was dressed in sackcloth and grief-stricken in his heart, and hurried on the road with Amin Ling.
At that time, he first lost his son twice, and then his beloved wife was seriously ill. Every day he was weaker and weaker, and there were all kinds of murderous intentions outside staring at the small Liu Mansion. He was at a loss in his heart. At a loss, when I was most lost and grief-stricken, I even wished to go like this.
It's just that Amin is right, Lan Ting is still alive, the enemy is still alive, and he can't die yet.
If you go to Hu County, you will have a chance to live!
Recovering his thoughts, Liu She restrained his painful memories, raised his finger and pointed at Hu County, and asked, "I have nothing to do today, so I will test Lanting for my father's teacher. If you were a father and had to go to Hu County, what would you do? To save your life, how to stand firm and how to manage Hu County?"
