"Liu Siyuan and Liu Sixu, descendants of the Liu family in Zhenzhou, have come to pay homage to the Kingdom to discuss some prison matters." The two envoys sent by the Liu family to deliver the ransom were very polite. As soon as they entered the Chinese military tent, they all bowed and saluted. Their movements were slow and gentle.
Elegant, you can tell from a scholarly family at first glance.
Just after collecting other people's money, Han Qing couldn't give any face to him. He smiled and raised his hand slightly after the handsome case, "Please excuse me. I have ordered my subordinates to join the army and go to the dock to pick up the people. Please wait for a while.
The few children of the Liu family who are guests at my place can leave with you two."
"Thank you for the punishment!" Liu Siyuan looked like he was dressed as an official, and bowed again and saluted, "The Liu family has no good discipline, and the unscrupulous members of the family should have been punished by death for offending the power of the punishment tiger. The punishment was extrajudicial and we showed mercy to them and let them go home.
, I, the Liu family, can’t thank you enough.”
Liu Sixu followed closely behind, bowing and saying loudly: "The elders in the clan received family letters from several unscrupulous children, and were frightened and inexplicable. I thought that I, the Liu family, was originally from the Central Plains, how could I do such a disobedient act? Therefore, overnight, I
The compensation money was collected and shipped to Busan for shipment."
"Although a few unscrupulous disciples were forced to go astray by military orders." Liu Siyuan took over and continued, "But after all, they caused disturbance to the officials and people of the motherland. Therefore, in order to express sincerity, the elders went astray among several unscrupulous disciples.
In addition to the request mentioned in the disciple's letter, an additional ten percent was added."
"In addition to the compensation for disturbing the Denglai area, my elders also specially prepared a thank you gift for Ti Xing. I hope Ti Xing will accept it with a smile." Liu Sixu gave it without hesitation and followed Liu Siyuan's words.
It was as if the two of them had rehearsed countless times in advance, and they coordinated perfectly with each other. Every move and every word was just right, making people unable to get angry even though they knew they were telling lies.
Unable to get angry, Han Qing felt very uncomfortable all over. She frowned and waved her hands gently, "There is no need to give me a thank you gift. Han asked them to write a letter to ask for compensation because the Goryeo Navy did not announce its disappearance.
The war delayed our farming season in Denglai and Denglai. However, Han himself suffered no losses and had no contact with the Liu family in Zhenzhou."
"Having said that, I, the Liu family, owe Han Ti Xingtian a favor after all. If I don't express my gratitude, the elders in the clan will feel guilty." As if he had expected that Han Qing would not accept the Liu family's gift of thanks, Liu Siyuan
He smiled, raised his hands, and explained softly.
"Are Han Tixing worried that accepting a gift will damage your reputation?" Liu Sixu cooperated with him tacitly, and quickly said, "Actually, it is not necessary. The thank you gift is a poem handwritten by my ancestor Chengxuan.
It was because the elders in the clan heard that Han Tixing was a disciple of Zheng Jijiu's sect, that they specially found it from the clan treasury and gave it to them as a gift."
"Liu Chengxuan? Are your ancestors from the Tang Dynasty? Are you the Duke of Hedong County of the Tang Dynasty?" Han Qing was shocked and sat up straight in an instant.
If he hadn't merged with Han Jiajun's soul, he might not be able to figure out who Liu Chengxuan was even if he tried hard.
Thanks to Han Jiajun's hard study in the past years, he just heard the word "Chengxuan" in his ears and immediately connected the ancestor of the Liu family with Liu Gongquan, the great calligrapher and Duke of Hedong County in the Tang Dynasty.
"We are unworthy and will dishonor the reputation of our ancestors." Liu Siyuan keenly noticed the change in expression on Han Qing's face and handed over his hand with a bit of pride.
"Have the courage to report to Han Tixing and learn that I, the Liu clan of Zhenzhou, went to Goryeo after crossing the sea to avoid trouble during the Huangchao Rebellion. The children in the clan are all proud of their Tang Dynasty blood!" Liu Sixu also faced him.
Smile and declare proudly.
"It turned out to be the Duke of Hedong. I'm disrespectful!" Han Qing's mentality quickly returned to calm, and she smiled and gently cupped her hands.
In his previous life, he firmly believed that people are not animals and do not need blood. Although he also comes from a wealthy family in this life, he is still not very "cold" about blood inheritance.
Therefore, after the shock, he just bowed his hands to the Liu brothers as the Romans did, and let it go. He didn't think highly of those two people because of Liu Gongquan.
"Don't dare, don't dare, Han Tixing is too polite!" Liu Siyuan's reaction was obviously a pause, and he stiffly returned the gesture.
"The mention of ancestors is just to prove that the thank you gift is not a gift. It is not meant to show off." Liu Sixu's smile was also a little stiff, and he added dryly.
It’s no wonder that the two of them performed worse than before.
In fact, Han Qing's reaction was very different from the situations they had encountered before.
In the past, as long as the brothers mentioned Liu Gongquan, even if the other party was a ruffian who led the army, their attitude towards them would immediately become warmer.
If you are a scholar, you can't wait to hold the two brothers' hands and talk about friendship as equals.
The reason is very simple. First, during his lifetime, Liu Gongquan was a "three-step talent" personally praised by Emperor Wenzong of the Tang Dynasty. His literary reputation and calligraphy were unparalleled in the world.
The second is the value of the gift itself. Even though it is just a thin piece of paper, when it is put on the market and quoted at a price of RMB 100,000, all the contenders will flock to it!
"Then Han will be disrespectful." The only thing that pleased the Liu brothers was that Han Qing's attitude towards them had not changed much, but he no longer refused to accept the gift. He smiled and nodded lightly, "Lingzu copied it himself.
His poems are treasures in any era and in any place. After Han keeps them, he will definitely find a safe place for them and keep them."
"Thank you very much, Marquis Founder, for your compliments. The poem is in the hands of my attendants. I will fetch it now." Liu Siyuan breathed a secret sigh of relief and quickly bowed with a smile.
"The entourage is rude and I am afraid of disturbing the Founding Marquis, so just now my brother specially ordered him to stay outside the door and take care of the gift box containing the poems." Lest Han Qing feel neglected, Liu Sixu explained with a smile.
"If you two are interested, just ask the entourage to come in with the gift box!" Han Qing smiled and waved gently.
In his eyes, the Liu brothers were already out-and-out subjects of Goryeo. So he had no interest in getting close to the two brothers.
However, in his eyes, Liu Gongquan is a genuine Chinese sage. If there is a chance to recover the authentic works left in his place, he should not give it to outsiders.
"Thank you Han Tixing for your understanding!" The Liu brothers politely bowed their hands in thanks, then turned around and went out, showing off the demeanor of a member of a well-known family.
Not long after, the two came in with a majestic servant. They opened a beautifully crafted wooden gift box and asked Han Qing's soldiers to inspect it in public.
After the inspection by the soldiers was completed, Liu Siyuan carefully took out a mounted scroll from the gift box, held it in front of his forehead, and walked slowly towards Han Qing's handsome case.
"This gift is really complicated." Han Qing looked a little impatient and whispered in her stomach. At the same time, she was somewhat looking forward to Liu Gongquan's authentic work.
However, just as he was about to stand up and take the book, Dou Rong's voice suddenly came from behind him, "Mr. Sir, be careful, I'll see you soon!"
"What?" Han Qing shivered, instinctively pushing her left hand towards the handsome case, and at the same time quickly retreated with her body connected to the seat.
It was too late to say that, but it was too late. Before Dou Rong's voice could finish, Liu Siyuan had already used his right hand to pull out an iron awl from the mounted scroll and stabbed Han Qing's chest distractedly.
