Liu Bei got out of the car in front of the General Guard's Mansion, and the emperor took the carriage into the yard by hand. Liu Bei did not go in, but stood in front of the door for a while. It had been a while since he left Yuan's Mansion, and he still felt his hands and feet numb and his heart was beating violently. He rubbed his face and felt that his face must be a little pale. When he went in at this time, if he ran into Liu Xiu in person, Liu Xiu would definitely be able to see his abnormality.

He calmed down for a while, then he showed a calm smile, stepped into the mansion, and greeted the two soldiers on duty at the door. The two soldiers were a little surprised, look at me, I look at you, and laughed.

Liu Bei entered the main courtyard, and there was no one in the hall. He hesitated for a moment, walked through the main hall and walked towards the back room. As soon as he turned over the small door, he heard the sound of Liu Xiu and Wang Chu laughing.

"Madam, please wait. Now you are so valuable, don't be careless."

"What's the most valuable thing? I'm not the first one." Wang Chu said: "By the way, have you sent the lanterns of the emperor's legitimate son? You'll have to use it tonight."

"I've sent it. I asked Xuande to go there. He happened to go to the palace to celebrate the New Year to the Empress Dowager."

"Xuande is back? Why didn't I see him?"

"I just came back yesterday. I saw that he was too tired, so I asked him to go back and rest directly, and didn't bother you."

"This is the New Year, he is not at home with his mother, so why are he rushing back?"

"There is an urgent matter." Liu Xiu responded vaguely, not telling Wang Chu about the specific situation. "By the way, Achu, Xuande is not young anymore. You should pay attention to it and see which women from the family are virtuous and gentle. Please pay attention to it."

"Look in Luoyang?" Wang Chu hesitated, "The women in Luoyang have high eyes, and there are rules in the palace. They have to be selected by the palace first, and the good women have entered the palace, and the rest... I am afraid that Xuande will not look down on him. Although he doesn't talk much, I can tell that he is very arrogant."

"Of course, how can an ordinary woman be worthy of me as a clan brother?" Liu Xiu laughed, "Don't be lazy either. Although there are rules in the palace, those powerful families have solutions. If they don't want their daughter to enter the palace, they will not be able to enter the palace."

Wang Chu giggled, "The powerful family? You said it right. The powerful family has a way, but can the daughter of the powerful family like him?"

"What's wrong with him? When I came to Luoyang, I was not as good as him now. Why didn't I marry you into the door? Don't underestimate Xuande. Xuande just didn't encounter a good opportunity, otherwise it would be a matter of time before it becomes more prosperous. Look at the fact that among the few of us brothers, except for Mr. Lu's two sons, which book is better than Xuande?"

"That's true. If the Yuan family hadn't crushed the exam, he would have been full of county magistrates for three years." Wang Chu sighed: "Since my husband has an order, I have to obey it. I will visit tomorrow to see who has a good woman and deserves this good brother of my husband."

Liu Bei felt warm in his heart when he heard this. He almost rushed out and told Liu Xiu about his visit to the Yuan family. As soon as his feet moved, he stopped again, but he just coughed. When Liu Xiu heard this, he turned his head and looked at it, and couldn't help laughing: "Look, I said it's time to do this. When it comes to getting married, Xuande appeared."

Wang Chu put away his smile, bowed to Liu Bei, and then retreated into the inner room. Liu Xiu walked up and returned to the hall with Liu Bei, asking casually: "Have the lanterns been sent?"

"I've sent it, and the emperor's legitimate son liked it very much." Liu Bei said, pretending to look at Liu Xiu inadvertently. Liu Xiu was stunned for a moment and smiled, "Then I'm going to say that I can't find a second one in Luoyang City."

"That's true. Who in Luoyang City can have such a calligraphy and painting state as a elder brother? Even if they are similar, they are proud of their ability and refuse to do things on the colorful lanterns." Liu Bei joked for a few words, then pondered for a moment: "Brother, do you know, when I saw the emperor's legitimate son today, I suddenly felt a strange feeling."

"What a strange feeling?" Liu Xiu looked at Liu Bei in surprise, "What's so strange? It's not the first time you've seen him. You've carved him countless times when you were a child."

Liu Bei smiled and nodded: "Yes, but he hasn't seen him for more than a year, and he has changed a lot. I just saw him in the palace and didn't recognize him all at once. Instead, I think this emperor's legitimate son is a bit similar to you back then."

Liu Xiu was stunned, his eyes suddenly became a little stern: "Xuande, what are you talking about? How could the emperor's legitimate son be like me?"

Liu Bei was a little embarrassed, "I just felt this way for a while and had no other intentions."

"The speaker is unheard, the listener is intentional. You should know how many people in Luoyang are staring at me and the Song family. If such a thing is spread, can it be explained clearly?" Liu Xiu lowered his face and said seriously: "You are already twenty-two years old. You should be clear about the importance of such a thing. Don't say it again for the second time. Have you heard it?"

"Brother, don't worry, I won't tell anyone." Liu Bei quickly apologized, but couldn't help but sneer in his heart. Liu Xiu's reaction was a bit extreme, which was very different from his usual cunning. It can only be said that it became more and more obvious.

Liu Xiu also felt that he was a little too strict and the scene was a little awkward, so he slowed down: "By the way, which woman your mother has ever liked for you?"

"My mother works at home all day, so how can she have time to visit?" Liu Bei tacitly stopped talking about the topic just now, and talked about his marriage. He is already twenty-two years old this year and should have been married long ago, but he was in Luoyang for a while and didn't remember this.

"Don't worry, I'll ask Achu to pay attention to you. If there is a suitable woman, I'll come to your house to propose marriage. If it's really not possible, I'll ask the emperor and the queen to come forward to give the marriage."

"Thank you, brother." Liu Bei bowed gratefully. When he raised his head, he looked at Liu Xiu, but found that Liu Xiu had a light brow lock, obviously a little distracted.

...

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Luoyang City lifted the curfew for one night, and the emperor and the people were having fun. But the palace was the palace after all, and it was not something that ordinary people could come. In previous years, when Liu Xie was in the Wei General's Mansion, the Lantern Festival was always the most lively festival. Regardless of whether Liu Xiu was in Luoyang or not, the eldest princess would always call a group of children who were not as old as him to come to the mansion to enjoy the lantern game. The eldest princess's two sisters' children, Cao Cao's children, and Song Qi's children were all indispensable regular guests. Sometimes Zhou Yi's son Zhou Yu and Yang Biao's son Yang Xiu would also be invited to come. If Cai Yong celebrates the New Year in Luoyang, his daughter Cai Yan would of course come. The Wei General's Mansion is a child star, which is simply a children's version of the Three Kingdoms.

Yuan Guiren jumped and then calmed down again: "One time and another time, now Your Majesty is the emperor and rich in the world, of course it is not comparable to that time. However, although the father and son are different from their strength and weakness, their appearance should be similar. I still think that Your Majesty's appearance is somewhat similar to the emperor's legitimate son."

"It's not like that." The Empress Dowager curled her lips: "Your Majesty was completely different from now when he was a child."
