Chapter 281 [4 More] 281
Xu Lin said in a low voice: "Master spent all his savings to bury his mother and younger brothers and sisters, so..."
Xu Lin was a little bit speechless at this point, even though he had gone through so many ups and downs and had a firm mind, he couldn't help but feel sad when he thought of this matter.
Liu Tan frowned: "Your master doesn't have an official position or title?"
Xu Lin shook his head, as if he didn't want to say more.
Liu Tan's heart ached immediately: Liu Che is such a pig!
Although he does honor Liu Che as his own father now, it does not prevent him from scolding Liu Che.
Such an expert in flood control ended up dying of poverty, and Liu Che was not short of money, so giving any official position a little salary can make people live.
Xu Bo is also strong enough, his family is gone and he is still thinking about curing the flood!
Liu Tan took a deep breath and didn't ask any more questions. Originally, he was curious about what happened to Xu Lin's eyes and legs, but after thinking about it, let's forget it. Anyway, someone under him can investigate.
On the way, Liu Tan didn't discuss with Xu Lin much about water control. This kind of thing was too exhausting. He could see that Xu Lin's health was not good, his lips had no blood, and his face was very pale. Thinking of this People often run around in order to control the water, and they are not the kind of people who do not see the sun all year round. This kind of whiteness means physical weakness.
Anyway, flood control is not something that will happen overnight, and it is useless for Liu to worry about it. We are all prepared here, and there may be other delays.
The team came and went for a month and a half and finally returned to the capital. On the day Liu Tan returned, everyone came out to greet him, with Lu Xuan among them.
Originally, Xu Lin had already figured out how to persuade Liu Tan to make great efforts to control the water after deliberation all the way, otherwise he would only treat the symptoms but not the root cause. As a result, when he finally ran to Liu Tan's car to talk with him, he found that the northern border His Royal Highness was simply absent-minded.
No matter what he said, the other party always said yes, yes, yes, yes, and his attitude was perfunctory.
However, Xu Lin didn't think he was qualified to let Liu Tan be perfunctory. If Liu Tan really didn't want to hear it, he could have driven him away, so it could only be that His Royal Highness the King of the Northern Realm wanted to hear it, but there were other things attracting his attention.
In the end, Xu Lin had no choice but to keep his mouth shut and wait until he settled down.
Liu Tan didn't even realize that Xu Lin didn't speak anymore. He was calculating how much distance was left in his mind. When he was ten miles away from the capital, he finally couldn't help getting out of the carriage and said, "Bring the horse here, it's too boring. gone."
In fact, if he didn't make excuses, no one would dare to stop him even if he wanted to ride a horse. At most, he would arrange a few more guards around him to ensure his safety.
After Liu Tan got on his horse, he ran towards the city gate in no time.
He knew that according to the procedures, he should be with the main force, but after thinking about it, the northern border country is his territory anyway, and now there is no one else, he has the final say!
So Lu Xuan, Huo Guang and the others only welcomed His Royal Highness the King of the Northern Territory alone. As for the convoy... they didn't even see a shadow.
When Liu Tan saw Lu Xuan, he wanted to rush over and give him a big hug. However, there were too many people watching, no matter how presumptuous he was, he still had to worry about the influence of the public. In the end, he had no choice but to hold back the impulse, and said while riding on the horse. : "Didn't you say that you don't need to come to pick it up? What a delay in your affairs."
You all come out and I have to keep a distance from Lu Xuan.
Huo Guang looked at Liu Tan, and found that the other party's eyes were always attached to Lu Xuan's body when he was speaking, so he couldn't help but said: "Your Highness is sympathetic to the ministers, and the ministers should not be arrogant."
Liu Tan nodded without sincerity: "Let's go, go back to the palace, oh, what should you do?"
Huo Guang:? ? ? ?
Has His Royal Highness been stunned?
Although Lu Xuan's eyes were also glued to Liu Tan's body, he was keenly aware of Huo Guang's unkind eyes at this moment, and he regained his composure and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, Guoping and others have also worked very hard recently..."
Even if you don't ask about their work results, you still have to express your condolences.
Liu Tan blinked and said, "I brought you special products back. They are not expensive items, but they are quite interesting, Miao..."
He originally wanted to call Miao Rui, but he turned around and remembered that he led people out of the team, but Miao Rui didn't follow, and was still walking with the big team behind.
Liu Tan had no choice but to cover up and said, "Let Miao Rui send someone to take it to you later, that's enough, everyone has worked hard these days, I will give everyone a day off, and go to rest."
Huo Guang sneered: Heh, what's the rest? You don't want others to disturb your world, right?
If they were not given a holiday, they would have to follow Liu Tan back to the palace to report on their work. Even if there was nothing special, they would have to talk about the recent situation, not to mention the fact that Shuofang City is full of things right now.
However, seeing that His Royal Highness lost some weight in order to control the water, it was rare for Huo Guang to turn a blind eye.
He took the lead in saluting and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."
Liu Tan breathed a sigh of relief. He was also afraid that Huo Guang would say in public that he didn't need a vacation, so there was nothing he could do.
So the group of people basically walked all the way after returning to the city. After all, they all went back to their homes. Huo Guang's mansion is the closest to the palace, and he was the last one to leave. Before leaving, he took a deep look at Lu Xuan and said: "Your Highness has traveled a long distance and is exhausted. Please ask Kun Mimo not to mess around too much."
He doesn't want to think about the positions of Liu Tan and Lu Xuan, but no matter which one is a test of physical strength, he just wants to let Liu Tan rest.
Liu Tan couldn't help turning his face away, and began to think about whether he had the potential to be a fool in Huo Guang's heart. Now it's a verbal suggestion, and next time he might make a letter.
Lu Xuan looked at Huo Guang and smiled shyly, "Master, don't worry."
Huo Guanggong cupped his hands and left. Liu Tan just heaved a sigh of relief and turned to look at Lu Xuan. Before he could say anything, he saw Lu Xuan holding his hand very naturally and asked, "Are you tired this journey? Eat or take a bath first?"
take a bath?Mandarin duck bath?That was exciting.
Liu Tan's cheeks were flushed with excitement, he raised his chin slightly and said, "I have lunch on the way, I'm not hungry yet, let's take a bath first."
Bi Gao had already prepared things for him, and basically Liu Tan could only go in alone.
Originally, the maids had been helping Liu Tan undress, but this time all the maids were kicked out by Lu Xuan.
Liu Tan stretched his arms around Lu Xuan's neck and said with a smile, "Kun Mi personally changed this king's clothes. This king is really flattered."
Lu Xuan pinched his chin and asked with a chuckle, "I heard you brought someone back?"
Liu Tan was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that he had written to Huo Guang about this before, and it was not surprising that Lu Xuan knew about it.
Originally, he didn't worry about this matter, but now he heard Lu Xuan's question and couldn't help laughing: "What's so sour? Don't worry, no one can replace your position."
Lu Xuan put one arm around Liu Tan's waist and squeezed his chin with the other, smiling, "Then, should I thank Your Highness for your kindness?"
Liu Tan's cheeks were flushed, and his black eyes were bright: "Then how can you thank me?"
Lu Xuan lowered his head and leaned over and said, "Of course it's to serve His Highness well."
Liu Tan raised his head to meet him. After nearly two months of separation, the two could no longer restrain the urge to get close to each other.
After the kiss was over, only obscene clothes were left on Liu Tan's body. Lu Xuan held him in his arms to calm his breath, let him go and squatted down.
Liu Tan was stunned for a moment and saw that Lu Xuan was taking off his boots and socks.
Liu Tan was a little embarrassed: "I've been running outside all day..."
Lu Xuan raised his head, his delicate and beautiful eyebrows and eyes became deeper and deeper, and he said with a smile: "It's okay."
But after helping Liu Tan take off his shoes and socks, he stopped interfering, and just said: "I asked them to cook soup for you before, drink some if you don't want to eat, and then sleep for a while and eat at night."
Liu Tan:? ? ?
Wait, what about the mandarin duck bath?
Liu Tan reached out and grabbed his sleeve and asked, "Aren't we together?"
Lu Xuan took a deep breath immediately: "Don't invite me."
Liu Tan leaned over and hugged his waist: "I'll do it, what can you do?"
What else can I do?It was just that Lu Xuan helped to wash the last bath.
Even going back to the bedroom was carried by Lu Xuan, and then Liu Tan collapsed on the bed like a salted fish, and began to think seriously that Lu Xuan's physical strength seemed to be a little better, how could he catch up!
If you can't catch up, then... it might as well be like this, anyway, both of you have enjoyed it, and it doesn't make much difference whether you enter or not.
Lu Xuan embraced Liu Tan, and asked while playing with his fingers: "How is it? Is everything going well?"
Liu Tan said: "It's hard to say, but there is hope. The only problem is probably that it will waste people's money."
Lu Xuan chuckled lightly: "It hurts money? Are you short of money? I brought you some this time. However, you also know that the Western Regions don't use copper coins very much. They bring gold. You can arrange it yourself later. .”
Liu Tan didn't come up in a breath, patted Lu Xuan's chest and said: "How can I take it back! My money bank with a lot of money here can't put it down, how can it be short of money?"
Lu Xuan didn't care too much: "It's not much, but a few kilograms, just to give you a breath of relief, if it's not enough, I'll let someone..."
Gold by catty... Liu Tan interrupted him dumbfounded: "Wake up, I told you I'm not short of money."
"Didn't you say you need money?" Lu Xuan kissed his hand and said, "Why are you being polite to me?"
Liu Tan was a little skeptical about life, and couldn't help but question him from the soul: "Why do you think I'm short of money?"
Lu Xuan thought for a while before saying: "Probably because your palace is too poor."
Liu Tan felt that he had suffered a knowing blow, and simply said: "You do it, you do it, you can make whatever you like!"
He just doesn't like fancy things, but every time someone secretly reminds him that the palace is too spacious and simple, it's fine for Lu Xuan, and Huo Guang is also like this, shouldn't these people worry about his extravagance?
Lu Xuan laughed loudly: "Okay, let's not talk about this, what should we do with the person you brought back?"
Liu Tan tilted his head and looked at him: "Do you still remember?"
Lu Xuan kissed him and said, "You can't leave him alone after you bring him back, can you?"
Liu Tan suddenly remembered, yes, he seemed to have forgotten about him!
