Chapter 543: Self-reliance
Xue Shu had been practicing for two hours, and he finally got a moment to rest, Mu Xiang immediately handed him a towel, "Young Master." ”
Xue Shu immediately took a towel from Mu Xiang's hand and wiped her sweat for herself, in fact, she knew in her heart that there were some things that she couldn't ask Xue Shu too much, but if she didn't ask, it didn't mean that Xue Shu wouldn't say anything, Xue Shu said: "Xiang'er, do you know what I want to fulfill in the future?" ”
"You're going to do chivalry?"
"That's right."
"Like the mysterious man in black?"
"Yes."
"However, young master, there are some problems that have actually been hidden in the slave's heart for a long time, but I don't know whether to say it or not?"
"Just say it."
"The slave has been thinking about a question, who is that mysterious man in black? Just a few days ago, I saw the old man in and out in black, just like the mysterious man in black who often goes to chivalrous righteousness, in other words, do you think the mysterious man in black is the master? Mu Xiang was a little unsure.
"It's not that I think, it's what it is."
Xue Shu didn't intend to hide it from her, "Xiang'er, there are some things that I naturally want to tell you, in fact, the mysterious man in black who suddenly appeared outside your house that day, and the one who rewarded you with the gold ingot, is actually the father of this young master, but once you feel that others know that you are kind to you, you have to repay him, so this secret has not been told yet." ”
Mu Xiang was very surprised when she heard these words, "It turns out that the mysterious man in black is your father, but why did he do that?" ”
Xue Shu pursed his lips and said: "Actually, Young Master Ben is not too clear, but my father has always done things in his own way, not to mention that his chivalrous deeds are indeed true, but he wants to repay the emperor's kindness, but he doesn't want to become an official, so he used this method, but, in the end, the family rules are still family rules, he has been repeating over and over again, no useless people can be left in the family, so it must be a while later, they must be tested, not only you, but even all his subordinates."
It's just that, maybe because of the influence of his mother, he gave you ten years, not three or four years, just like Gong Ling, at that time, her father only gave her three years, and her three years of time are naturally not as proficient as you, and when she was just taken in by her father, it was nothing, and when her father tested her, she almost couldn't pass.
However, according to my father's approach, if you leave, he may have other preparations to ensure that you can have no worries about food and clothing, and when you are an adult, you will be able to support yourself, and he will not care about you, but these are just young masters' speculations. ”
Since Xiao Zhuyu married into the Xue family, many things have changed in the dark, even Xue Bolian's temperament has become humane, and he also knows the righteousness of chivalry, after ten years of chivalry and righteousness, he has his soft side, Xue Shu continued: "Fortunately, you have already passed the exam, in fact, there were many people who wanted to stay with their father as a subordinate, but in the end, because it was too cruel, they were defeated and could not enter the Xue Mansion to become a subordinate, so you are lucky." ”
Mu Xiang finally understood a little, "Then now Young Master Ben will go out." ”
"But, young master, ......"
Mu Xiang was about to say that she would follow, but Xue Shu refused, "You don't need to follow Young Master Ben, be good, just wait for Young Master Ben at home." As he spoke, he stroked her head, and then left, leaving only Mu Xiang alone to watch Xue Shu's back go away.
At this moment, she just felt that Xue Shu was really good to her, and there was no discomfort in her heart, Xue Shu changed into black clothes and ran out of the back door, which is actually what Xue Bolian hopes Xue Shu can become, and now Xue Shu has finally fulfilled his wish, Xue Bolian also feels very relieved.
Over there, the emperor's food has been served, as soon as he smells this fragrance, he feels very delicious, someone in the palace came, this person is the emperor's personal guard, but today he is wearing a plain clothes, naturally no one knows that he is from the palace, and he also sits next to the emperor, "Master." ”
"Is the matter I want you to investigate?"
"This person is not easy to catch, he is extremely fast, and he disappeared in an instant, this, how is it good to let me go?"
"Don't worry about it so much, let's eat first."
"Okay."
The emperor tasted a bite of the dish and said, "Well, I have heard that the food here tastes good, and in my opinion, it can be regarded as much stronger than the previous imperial chef." ”
The guards also think that the food here is excellent, and there is a very large wine jar behind it, which is full of wine that has been put for twelve years, and now it is about to bottom out, "This lord, this is the wine that our wife has brewed herself, and it has been placed for twelve years before it was taken out, and now it has been drunk by the guest officers. ”
After hearing this, the emperor said: "Twelve years of wine? I didn't think that your wife was so capable that she could make all the wine of those twelve years, so I would like to taste the wine. ”
The guard tasted it first, and then looked at the emperor and said: "Master, this wine is very special, it seems to be made of many flavored herbs, if it is medicinal wine, it doesn't seem to be all right, because there are a lot of ingredients used in it, in other words, I haven't drunk such pure wine yet, it's really delicious!" ”
After hearing this, the emperor was even more excited, and immediately poured a glass for himself, and it was really delicious, so he poured another glass for himself, but the little brother smiled and persuaded: "The master said, although this wine is delicious, I hope that the master will not be greedy for a cup, so as not to miss the business." ”
The emperor drank another glass and said: "Well, it is indeed a good wine, and it always gives people a feeling of unfinished business, but your master is also right, you can't drink too much, but can you buy this wine?" I'll be happy with as much silver as I want. ”
"One hundred and fifty wen, because the brewing of this wine is extraordinary, my wife can be regarded as almost pouring half of her life for this good wine."
"Oh?" The emperor was very happy and gave him two hundred wen, "There is no need to find the superfluous, I will definitely try your wife's cooking skills another day." ”
"Good, good!"
The emperor and the guards around him left, the emperor's alcohol consumption is indeed good, but the amount of alcohol of the guards around him does not seem to be very good, as soon as he arrives at the carriage, he is drunk, and the emperor can't help laughing when he sees it.
