Chapter 735: Invitation from Empress Changsun

In some aspects, ancient people were much more open than modern people. At least, those who were able to go solemn and openly say that they wanted to go for a prostitution were just playboys like Changsun Huan and those who were self-proclaimed romantic.

To be honest, after being in the Tang Dynasty for so long, Liu Yi has seen countless people, all kinds of things, and has experienced a lot of messy things, but like today, someone who took the initiative to ask him to drink flower wine, Changsun Huan was the first one.

"Liu appreciated Brother Changsun's kindness, but let's forget about going to 'Xinfang Pavilion'," Liu Yiuan smiled and shook his head slightly. He glanced at Changsun Huan indifferently and said, "It is a gentleman who does not take advantage of others. Brother Gongsun has no need to compromise himself for Liu."

Liu Yi never thinks that he is a gentleman, nor does he discriminate against those villains with extremely dirty thoughts and behaviors. Everyone has his own way and persistence, so Liu Yi never judges others' shortcomings and is not an absolute right or wrong. After all, there is no absolute right or wrong in this world. Liu Yi is not God, nor does he judge or criticize others' power and hobbies. All he can do is to control himself well.

For Liu Yi, self-discipline, self-cultivation, and family management, it is enough to do these things.

Moreover, if you have a good wife and a beautiful family, your relationship with Chuchu is as close as possible. Why should you provoke those flowers and plants outside and cause dissatisfaction in the family?

What's more, if Lao Liu and his old Taishan knew about this kind of thing, wouldn't the two old men still use kitchen knives to find themselves desperately and teach them a lesson?

Although in this era, drinking flower wine is considered a trend among those literati and poets and playboys, many people even know it and don’t think so, and just smile it. But in the eyes of Lao Liu and Zhang Puliang and the two old farmers, this is a traitor, this is a humiliating style, and it is a strange thing not to break his two calves.

Well, of course, it is not ruled out that someone is afraid of being infected with a disease like poison or willow, and dare not overcome it. After all, this is ancient times, and the safety measures for many things are not perfect. If you miss your life because of a moment of joy, it would be worth it.

Therefore, no matter what the reason was, Liu Yiu finally rejected Changsun Huan's somewhat ambiguous proposal. The young man Changsun Huan, seeing that Liu Yiu's attitude was firm, and after a little persuasion, he tactfully stopped mentioning this topic.

This person is not lustful.

After reaching this conclusion, Changsun Huan couldn't help but frown secretly. He was not short of money, had a lot of fame, did not love power, and was not lustful. Where is the weakness and weakness of Liu Yi? Is there really such a perfect saint in this world without any flaws or softness?

If it were in the past, Changsun Huan would have sneered at his thoughts. No gold is pure, no one is perfect. How could there be people and objects in this world without any shortcomings? It’s just that you are not attentive enough.

But now, after a period of observation and contact, Changsun Huan became a little uncertain about the Liu Yi in front of him. Is this Liu Yi performing too well, or is it not doing comprehensively enough?

Money, fame, wealth, women, power, why do these things that seem extremely effective in anyone else become so unbearable and useless when they meet Liu Yi?

He shook his head lightly with some annoyance. Changsun Huan couldn't help but look up at Liu Yi, who was sitting there and smiling. He had a look of admiration in his eyes. In less than two years, he could make his fortune to such a state that everyone knows and even is rich. Liu Yi does have some abilities and persistence that ordinary people cannot achieve.

Although I didn't want to admit it in my heart, Changsun Huan knew that compared to Liu Yi, there was still a big gap.

If you have no desire, you will be tough. When you think of this ancient saying that some wise man said, Changsun Huan couldn't help but sigh again. There was not enough thing in his hand to attract Liu Yi, and it was really difficult to get close to him. Fortunately, Liu Yi values ​​family affection, loyalty, power, sex, wealth, and fame, which are powerful tools that can't help others, can't play a big role in him, you can consider starting with the word "love".

Thinking of this, Changsun Huan couldn't help but sigh that the good luck of Gongsun Helan was, without any money or profit. He had almost reached a relationship with Liu Yiu and became brothers without any effort, which was really envious.

It’s just a pity that Gongsun Helan has been a rough man with no ambition since childhood. Even if such good connections are put into his hands, he can only waste his way and will not play a big role.

There is a bit of the sour taste of grapes that cannot be eaten, and a hint of obscureness emerges in Changsun Huan's heart.

"Young Master," while chatting and laughing, the servant guarding the gate ran into the hall again, bowed and bowed to Liu Yiuan, and replied softly: "Xiao Dezi, the eunuch in the Zheng Hall outside the door, is looking for a meeting."

"Oh? Xiao Dezi?" He looked stunned. He didn't know what Xiao Dezi was coming for. After bowing to Changsun Huan and prosecuting him, Liu You'll get up and greet him in person.

"Tsk! It's just a trivial eunuch. Is it worth his fuss? I've left you here with me. There's really no rules!" Seeing that Liu Yi had given up his young master to meet an eunuch. Changsun Youcai, the servant who had been following Changsun Huan, began to feel a little angry. He glanced at Liu Yi, who was already away, and muttered quietly beside Changsun Huan.

"Shut up! What do you know if you don't grow up?" He scolded Changsun Youcai fiercely, looked up at Liu Yi's figure who was leaving. Changsun Huan said softly: "If someone who can serve the emperor and the queen every day and can make up for words every day is insignificant, then Isn't this young master nothing?"

Seeing Liu Yi's behavior when he just heard Xiao Dezi's coming, Changsun Huan suddenly thought of the attitude and means of the old man in their family dealing with the eunuchs who could enter and exit the palace courtyard at any time. The close ministers of the royal family, even if they were just maids who poured tea, should not be underestimated. Liu Yi's approach has many similarities with their old man.

"Young Master taught me a lesson, it's a villain who has made a mistake!" Hearing their young master scolding, Changsun Youcai was angry, but due to his identity, he still obediently gave in a low voice.

"You, alas!" Seeing Changsun Youcai's resentment on his face, without thinking about it, he also knew what the kid was thinking. Changsun Huan looked at him and sighed softly, saying, "To be honest, this is no wonder you. You have been following me around the world over the years, and rarely staying in the mansion. It is reasonable that you would not think of the interests of some things."

The status of eunuchs is not high. If you really think about it, you may even be slightly inferior to those servants who have entered the lowly family. After all, slaves also have the hope and opportunity to get rid of their family. Once those eunuchs enter the palace, they will no longer have the day to leave the palace. In addition, the court has strict restrictions on eunuchs now, so few people can stand up and gain power and be despised by others outside. This is common.

Not to mention Changsun Youcai, who rarely comes into contact with official affairs, even the officials in the court, did not often not give the eunuchs who issued the orders? Looking inside and outside the court, those who can treat each other with courtesy and interact with those eunuchs in a fair manner, except for the old fried dough stick in their family, there is only Liu Yiyi in front of him.

In fact, Changsun Huan also understood in his heart that no one could see the role of these eunuchs except his father and Liu Yiong. You should know that the most in the officialdom is smart and intelligent people. No one is willing to win over the relationship between those eunuchs. Most of them are self-righteous and noble, shameless, or they don’t take these eunuchs to heart.

Not to mention others, Changsun Huan himself had a deep understanding of this. Although he knew that the importance of eunuchs such as Li Ran and Xiao Dezi, if he really had a shameless face to talk to them, or went to a restaurant for a meal together, he would never do it easily.

"Be careful in the future, don't underestimate anyone." He glanced at Changsun Youcai in a faint glance. Changsun Huan whispered: "Also, even if you feel so angry, don't show them on your face. I don't keep the waste around you. If you can't even control your simple look of joy and anger, don't stay by my side again in the future."

"Yes, young master, the villain has recorded it!" Changsun Youcai's heart thumped slightly. Seeing that their young master seemed to be really angry, he hurriedly bent over and tried hard to control himself, not letting any expressions on his face that shouldn't appear.

"Well, okay, let's go out and have a look. Empress Changsun came to Liu's house at this time, and I think it was also for tomorrow's birthday party." She nodded slightly, and Changsun Huan stood up from the chair and greeted Liu Yi's back foot to welcome him out of the front yard.

"Let General De wait for a long time and lose the greeting!" Seeing that Xiao Dezi got the letter out of the side room of the waiting guest, Liu Yimeng bowed instead of the polite and cumbersome ones, because they were all acquaintances, and the etiquette and words they received were not as polite and cumbersome as they were ordinary times. Just bowing, you can be considered to have seen it.

"Mr. Liu is so serious, but villain dare not take it!" Seeing that Liu Yi respected him as well, Xiao Dezi was in a good mood and bent over and gave him a greeting with a smile. Only in front of Liu Yi can he truly feel the feeling of being treated equally from the heart. This is something he could not feel outside the palace any other official or the common people.

"Oh, Mr. Changsun is here too. I'm polite!" After meeting with Liu, I saw that the second son of the Changsun family was also in the mansion. Xiao Dezi was busy coming forward to greet him. Although this kid himself did not have any official position, he was the queen's nephew, and it seemed that he was deeply happy with the queen, so Xiao Dezi could not not pay attention to it.

"Mr. De is polite!" Nodding lightly, he raised his hand to return the gift. Changsun Huan did not show much enthusiasm and sincerity, but this was very rare for Xiao Dezi. After all, in the past, whether in the palace or in the Duke of Qi's mansion, it would be good that this master could look at him at first sight.

I think he was able to do this because Mr. Liu was there. For no reason, Xiao Dezi directly attributed Changsun Huan's abnormal root to Liu Yi's body. When his two little eyes looked at Liu Yi again, he showed a look of gratitude and gratitude.

"I don't know what kind of expensive thing is Mr. De coming here? But what instructions did the Empress have?" After entering the hall, everyone sat down with the guest and host. After the servant handed over the tea, Liu Yi spoke straight and asked Xiao Dezi.

"Mr. Liu's wise eyes," he whispered to Liu Yi, and Xiao Dezi said sharply: "In fact, it is impossible to say what order is. Today, the Empress comes with a villain just for invitation."

"I think Mr. Changsun already knows it," turned his head and looked at Changsun Huan. Xiao Dezi continued to say to Liu Yiu: "Three days later will be the birthday of the Empress. The Empress had already given instructions a few days ago. Just like in previous years, it was silent, not luxurious, and not a big deal. It was just to invite some relatives and friends to have a simple meal together."

"This time, the villain came to the mansion, and sincerely invited him to the Queen's orders, and asked Mr. Liu to attend the banquet at that time." After a serious look at Liu Yi, Xiao Dezi said sharply: "The Queen said that whether to go or not depends on the teacher's own wishes. Although she really hopes that Mr. can go, if she doesn't want to, or has any inconvenience, she cannot force her."

"Also," said Xiao Dezi for a moment, and then said, "If Mr. Liu and Mrs. Liu and others are willing, they can also go with the teacher. At that time, the villain will come to pick up the husband's family and go to the palace for a banquet."

"As long as the rumors outside, my aunt really attaches great importance to and loves Liu Yi," Hearing Xiao Dezi's polite and respectful words, Changsun Huan was a little bit chewy. In previous years, Empress Changsun had few chances to attend the birthday party of Empress Changsun, and he, his nephew, had always followed the old man with a stern face to enter the palace to get some drinks. When have you ever enjoyed such generous treatment as Liu Yi today?
