Sun Ce looked through the manuscript one by one, but Liu Xie's face appeared before his death. At that time, Liu Xie was so weak that he didn't even have the strength to sit up, but his eyes were clear. Sun Ce couldn't explain clearly what Liu Xie was feeling at that time, but he believed that Liu Xie was not desperate and did not regret it.

He did what he should do, but his fate was not good, and he met an opponent who could not imagine at all.

Sun Ce believed that although Liu Xie did not know that he was a time traveler, he would definitely feel that he was different from this era. It was already good to be an enemy of such an opponent, and it was not embarrassing that he could do that. Moreover, Liu Xie believed that he would treat his sister Liu He well and let Liu He live quietly in this troubled times. He had already done his best. Long before the breakup, Liu Xie had expected that sooner or later he would ascend the throne, and the jade he prepared for Liu He was enough to gain a foothold in the harem of the Xin Dynasty.

If someone else has such insight, he may not be able to make such a determination.

No wonder he was able to fight against Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao for more than 30 years and end up in a good end. This is a unique personality, but unfortunately he was born at the wrong time.

May his spirit in heaven rest in peace.

Sun Ce put down his manuscript, held the desk with both hands, and let out a sigh of relief. He saw many important ritual instruments, but did not see the imperial seal. With Liu Xie's long-term considerations, since Liu He could arrange it so well, he would naturally not miss his son. The imperial seal should still be in a safe place to protect his only bloodline.

He didn't care about the imperial seal, but he wanted to fulfill Liu Xie's wish.

"Ahe, it's the Chinese New Year almost. Don't stay home and go out and walk around. Go and see Doctor Xun tomorrow and ask him what Mrs. Tang in Chang'an needs to do and when will she go back to her hometown in Yingchuan to see."

"Here." Liu He responded happily in his heart.

"Let's go, let them clean up and let's rest." Sun Ce got up, held Liu He's hand, and walked towards the room.

Yuan Quan held the hem of the skirt, rushed a few steps, came to the carriage, opened the car door, and bent his body and bowed.

"Auntie, this is really sincere. I finally invited you. I'm so happy that I'm getting younger and younger. My complexion is even better than me. Isn't it because the water and soil of Dalei Mountain are better and more prosperous than Gushe Mountain."

Mrs. Yuan sat in the car, looking at Yuan Quan with a smile, unable to hold back her face, and reached out to light Yuan Quan's forehead. "Your mouth is so good that you can spit lotus flowers." Yuan Quan smiled with his lips and helped Mrs. Yuan get out of the car. Mrs. Yuan stood up straight, looked around, looked around, and nodded secretly. "Although the king is young, he has a very good grasp of his qualities. He neither blamed himself nor was he greedy. He takes both public and private affairs, and his noble and humble are the same. If all the kings in later generations can do this, the country will last for a thousand years."

"Then I'll give you a good word from my aunt." Yuan Quan helped Mrs. Yuan and walked up the mountain along the bluestone path. Tangshan had hot springs, which attracted many powerful people to build villas here. In order to prevent the competition, Sun Ce simply planned Tangshan as an overall plan, and controlled part of it as a kind of welfare, for the royal family and civil and military ministers to live; part of it was open to ordinary people and charged a certain fee. Although ordinary people had to spend some money, the hot springs they enjoy were not the best, but they were much better than not being able to get involved. This is naturally a virtue policy. Mrs. Yuan would naturally hear it when she came to Jianye.

The two went up the mountain together. Tangshan has geothermal heat, and the temperature is much higher than that in other places. From time to time, you can see flowers and plants that can only be seen in spring and autumn from time to time. The green trees are shady, which is pleasing to the eye. Mrs. Yuan was in a good mood and talked and laughed with Yuan Quan.

"Is there any free yard on the mountain?" As Yang Biao's identity, he was originally qualified to live in Tangshan, but Yang Biao himself did not want to, so Mrs. Yuan had to accompany him to stay in Dalei Mountain.

"Of course, even if there isn't, my aunt will have to be vacated." Yuan Quan asked with a smile: "I just don't know if my aunt has other guests and how big the yard is."

While speaking, she was walking away from secluded, surrounded by flowers and trees, and the fragrance lingered. Mrs. Yuan stopped, took a deep breath, and closed her eyes intoxicatedly. Yuan Quan waved his hand quietly, and the maids stopped in the distance, silently. After a while, Mrs. Yuan opened her eyes, raised her hand, picked up a soft flower branch, pulled it to her nose and sniffed it gently, and the sound was as warm and gentle as the fragrance of flowers.

"A Quan, you live freely here, and you can't forget the other tribe members."

"I wonder who my aunt is talking about?"

Mrs. Yuan turned around and looked at Yuan Quan. "Are you thinking among the guests?"

"Xian Si Xin surrendered, and the king was afraid that he would be embarrassed, so he didn't invite him."

"Whether it is embarrassing or not, it is not because of the new surrender. If you are a member of the ministers and have a seat with the three or five martial officials, it is naturally embarrassing. If you are the only one in charge, it is naturally not embarrassing."

Yuan Quan smiled. "He was a marquis of Ye, and his fief was thousands of households. Even if he could not be the leader, he would not be able to sit in the same seat as the martial arts clerk. Even if he wanted to be the leader, it was not impossible, but he had some reasons."

"Is this reason for tribute instruments enough?"

"What kind of ritual instrument?"

Mrs. Yuan glared at Yuan Quan. "The ritual instrument that King Wu could use when he ascended the throne and became emperor."

Yuan Quan blinked his eyes and smiled sweetly. "Auntie, you are a little biased. To be honest, those ritual instruments should have half of my family, and the remaining half should be spoils. Xian Si should have offered them for a long time. It is not right to hide them privately. Now he has just taken them out and wants to make the conditions. Isn't it a bit too much?"

Mrs. Yuan said angryly: "Where is my old face? I'm running from afar, you have to give me three points of thin air."

Yuan Quan covered his mouth and smiled. "It's not just a matter of being a shameful person. It's a great honor for my aunt to come. But I dare not take the initiative in this matter without authorization. Even the queen can't make the final say. The king has to make arbitrary decision. Let's do this, my aunt stays here for two days, and I'll find an opportunity to ask."

Mrs. Yuan glanced at Yuan Quan, with a little displeasure, her eyebrows raised lightly, and she wanted to speak but stopped. Yuan Quan could see clearly and said, "Auntie, I'll tell you a joke first."

"In your eyes, I'm not as good as a joke?"

"Auntie is angry, I'm just saying a word. But to be honest, the owner of this joke is really a big deal. Even if my aunt meets her, she will probably avoid it."

"Is that right?" Mrs. Yuan's face was filled with freckles and could hardly help but attack.

"Does your aunt know about the imperial seal?"

When Mrs. Yuan heard this, her momentum suddenly became weaker, and she couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Her curiosity arises again. She just hindered her identity and was difficult to ask, so she could only wait for Yuan Quan to say it. Yuan Quan told Sun Ce's anecdote about the imperial seal being an ominous thing, and after that, she looked at Mrs. Yuan with a smile.

"Auntie, are you laughing at this?"

Mrs. Yuan's delicately trimmed eyebrows were slightly frowned, and she was speechless for a moment. Although Sun Ce's remarks were shocking, they could not be said to be unreasonable. The seal of the imperial court is indeed not something that is necessary, and it is not even considered an antique. No one can tell how it evolved into a representative of destiny. Besides, Sun Ce had long stated that he did not believe in destiny and only believed in the hearts of the people, so he would naturally not take the seal seriously. As for other ordinary jade wares, even if they were not as unpopular as the seal of the imperial court, they might not be much better, at least they would not be as important as they thought. Yuan Tan wanted to use these jade wares stolen from the Han Palace to exchange for a noble seat, which was indeed a bit overestimated. No wonder Yang Biao opposed it and told her not to humiliate herself.

Seeing that Mrs. Yuan didn't say anything, Yuan Quan didn't say anything anymore and led Mrs. Yuan up the mountain and walked towards Daoxiangyuan.

Sun Ce looked at the young man in front of him and didn't say anything for a long time.

The young man is Jia Mu, and he is Jia Xu's eldest son. He can vaguely see Jia Xu's shadow in his appearance and height, but his expression is completely different. He looks ordinary and even a little dull, and his whole temperament is different from Jia Xu. After shedding away the unfathomable luster, he is only rough, just like the desolate land of Xiliang that was blown by the north wind.

If he hadn't reported himself to his house and brought Jia Xu's handwritten letter, Sun Ce would not have believed that he was Jia Xu's son.

How guilty is this old Jia? He doesn't even teach his own son. I don't know what Lu Qiu Xing felt when he saw Jia Mu. Of course, whether Lu Qiu Xing could see that Jia Xu's thoughts were all unknown. At his level, it was too difficult to guess Jia Xu's thoughts, and it was not easy to react afterwards.

"Where is Mr. Wenhe? How are you doing lately?"

"Thank you for your concern. My father is in Chang'an and is with Xie Jun."

Sun Ce was very surprised. After Yang Xiu was under house arrest by Fa Zheng, Xie Qing stayed in Chang'an, supported himself and presided over Chang'an's intelligence work, and performed well. He thought it was Xie Qing's own ability, but now he realized that Jia Xu was helping behind him. This is a favor.

"Please don't blame Xie Jun. My father is so quiet and unwilling to make a statement. I force Xie Jun to keep it secret."

Sun Ce didn't say anything more. With Xie Qing's methods, he was definitely not a match for Jia Xu. Jia Xu told him not to speak out, and he must have the conditions to grasp him. Xie Qing started from the overall situation and concealed it. Although from the perspective of the system, this is a very serious violation.

Sun Ce lowered his head and read Jia Xu's handwritten letter. Jia Xu's letter was written very short, with a few words lightly. He didn't even introduce the situation in Chang'an. He greeted him like an ordinary friend, and then talked about the situation in Liangzhou. The situation in Chang'an was in a stalemate, Niu Fu's life was not easy. Without the goods transported from the Central Plains to the Western Regions, Niu Fu's wealth was cut off and the war horses in his hand were nowhere to be sold. I hope Sun Ce could help, and finally attached a list of gifts sent by Niu Fu.
