Chapter 29: Three Added Up to Bigger Than a Goose Egg
The breeze blew his silver-white fluttering clothes, his hair was clear, and he looked up at the willow treetops in front of him,
"Huh! However, just a few wisps of fresh wind, it will blow the willows to compete for spring, the old people and old things are old, the new people and the new bureaus are new incidents, even if the rookies are fierce now, what do you have to do with my officials? β
Yuxi, who was feeding the pigeons on the side, heard this, raised his head and glanced at Guan Ming curiously, "Young master? What's going on again? If it's home, how can it have nothing to do with you? β
Guan Ming slowly walked down the wooden bridge, smiling brightly, "Yuxi, your son-in-law and I, are now the sons of my father and mother who have fallen out of favor, don't be so curious about everything, you know?" β
"Oh, got it."
While speaking, another pigeon flew in the sky, Yuxi took the pigeon, and handed it to Guan Ming, today is really strange, there are two pigeons at a time.
"Childe, is it the carrier pigeon of Prince Anning?"
Guan Ming was silent, only removed the paper tube, and walked into the house alone.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Inside the capital at noon
After getting off the court, Guan Ming didn't have to go to the top of the duty today, and walked leisurely on the bustling Zhengyang Street, Yuxi followed him and asked: "Young master, the sedan chair driver has already returned to the house by himself, when do you want to go slowly like this?" β
"Do you know how to go shopping! I don't have to deal with government affairs today, so I can't go out for a walk. β
Guan Ming didn't know why he wanted to come out for a walk and breathe.
"Okay, young master, it's good to go out for a walk in the sun at noon, hehe! The street is not noisy or crowded.
By the way, young master, why don't we go to our shop, I heard that the master has recently started to let Yun Bo Gongzi take care of his own business, young master, are you really out of luck with the official family's family business? β
"Yuxi, do you think I'll let it go?"
"This ...... Probably not, but young master, I didn't see any movement from you? β
Yuxi looked puzzled.
"Young Master Ben, I'm the number one talent in the world, what special actions will I need to take back my things?"
He hadn't figured out what the purpose of this suddenly extra brother was coming, and how could he blindly interrupt his actions?
At this time, I happened to pass by a Zijin porcelain shop, "Let's go, go in and have a look." As a result, just like Lan Longyuan's time, Guan Ming was also invited to visit the porcelain factory, Guan Ming naturally knew these routines, and asked the boss to skip this link, saying the purpose, because Lan Longyuan had already given the boss a reply, so the boss only said that there was a pottery museum, and he could do handmade pottery by himself, and wanted to invite him to try his cultivation sentiments.
When Guan Ming heard this, she suddenly remembered that Lan Wan seemed to like tinkering with some gadgets by herself, and the pink night pearl that she taught her to make last time, she was also happy to praise him for being smart, why don't you go in and have a look, and when she comes back, she can show her her pottery works, yes, go in and have a look.
But who knows, this time he entered, Guan Ming couldn't take his eyes off anymore and couldn't open his legs.
It's her!
Guan Ming was surprised to find that the only concubine of the emperor today, He Qingxin, was actually here, and the delicate and pretty figure was sitting at the desk by the north window, with her hands on her chin, listening to the lecture of the potter master in the classroom with relish, holding a most ordinary small porcelain plate in her hand, as if she was ready to learn how to paint for a while.
There were two people sitting at each table, and there were men and women listening to the lectures in the pottery hall, Guan Ming saw that there was no one around He Qingxin, so he pretended not to know her and walked up to her, "Girl, can you sit here?" β
"Huh?"
As soon as He Qingxin turned around, the bright-eyed and bright-toothed Guan Ming in front of him suddenly came into his eyes, it was him!
"Absolutely! Sit down! I remember you, you are the world's most talented official Ming, right? Sit down! There is no one here. β
"Oh, yes, thank you, girl."
Guan Ming sat down in his robe and said a lie without any guilt: "I see a girl in the next place, and I am a little familiar!" I just don't know where I've seen it. β
"Ahaha! Does the official son usually use such a clichΓ© method to talk to a strange girl? But this time, you're really right, we did meet, my name is He Qingxin. You are the one who played the piano after my dance at the dinner party at the palace on the day of the Feast of Humanity."
Guan Ming didn't expect her to find out her identity so quickly, "Oh? Then you are a concubine? As she spoke, she hurriedly got up again to salute her, but was quickly pulled back to her seat by He Qingxin.
He Qingxin: "What are you going to do?" β
"The lower official didn't know that the girl was a noble concubine, and he wanted to make amends to the girl."
"Hey, hey! No, everyone is out to play, so why be polite? β
He Qingxin looked at such a suave official, and was very happy, there was a handsome guy! ^V^, of course, to set almost. "Why don't I call you Guan Ming, you call me Qingxin! Anyway, didn't you come here to learn pottery by the pottery boss? β
"Well, that's right, then I'll hear Miss Xin clearly."
"Remove the word "Miss"! I don't like it. β
"Oh, yes, Miss Qingxin."
"Girl, get rid of it, too! I call you Guan Ming, and you call me Qingxin, so that you won't feel unfamiliar when you mix outside. β
"That'...... Well, why is Qingxin here, and how did he come out? β
"Hey! That's right! Of course I came out! The one in the cage often takes me here to play, but today he seems to be very busy, so I asked him if he could come out by himself, he thought about it, and asked Qiao Zifeng to accompany me out, but he didn't like this kind of grinding pottery, so he didn't come in, and drank tea outside! β
When Guan Ming heard this, he came out with someone by himself, so he was doing it here at the moment......
This is to let the emperor know at once. But it's all here, so let's finish this lesson!
"Oh, I see."
"I didn't expect Qingxin to like pottery too, you just said that you come often, but today is the first time, counting, Qingxin has become my senior sister."
"Haha! What a thing! Then, junior brother Guan Ming, you have to come often in the future! This sister will teach you how to play faience. β
Guan Ming looked at He Qingxin's approach, and suddenly forgot what he had just decided: not to come next time.
"As long as you finish your official business, you will come now."
"Okay, junior brother Guan Ming is really a very open person!"
He Qingxin's smiling face like a peach blossom was enough to intoxicate everyone's mind, of course, including someone's Lord Guan Ming.
β¦β¦
A pottery class that lasted for more than an hour ended in this way in their whispered chat, and the result was naturally that the smart and He Qingxin and the suave Guan Ming became good friends.
At the border pass, on the Jiayu Palace, Xiahou Chen's face was gloomy, and there were a bunch of people kneeling under the throne, "Lord Wang, the subordinates really tried their best to find Ji Gongzi, but this time there were no clues, and they didn't find any news about him." β
"Rubbish! Look for it again! β
"Whoa!" All the small things that can be touched by the back of the hand are used as punching bags.
"Yes, my lord! That Qingtang City is over there...... Do you want to track it? β
"Nonsense! Of course you have to keep up! β
"Yes! The subordinates retired. β
"Report ......"
As soon as this person retired, another person came in from outside the door, "Lord, Ji Gongzi has found it, and he fell into the snake cellar in the palace." β
"Bang!"
"What?"
Xia Houchen immediately stood up, and the poor official table was broken neatly......
"Well, the prince is angry, his subordinates haven't finished speaking, he doesn't know how to fall, he can't get up, put ...... More than 900 snakes in the cellar ......"
"Speak quickly!"
"Kill them all, because Ji Gongzi has been gone for two days, and he said that he was too hungry, so he gave some snakes that looked fatter...... Ate ......"
Xiahouchen is messy in the wind: ......
"Man, are you alright?"
"Ji Gongzi is fine, he fell asleep."
"Whew!"
Xia Houchen "It's okay if people are fine......"
His Majesty Emperor Ming issued an order to urgently summon Lan Wan back to Beijing on the same day
In the southeast mountain camp outside the capital, counting Fang Qinglan, a total of 18 soldiers and horses were discussing a plan for a large-scale combat drill in the next few days on a rest ground in a mountain forest.
Everyone said a word, each expressed their opinions, and the discussion was in full swing for a while.
Just as this group of generals was blowing their ideas to the point of lawlessness, a small soldier from outside the camp came to report, saying that the royal forest army sent from the capital asked to see him.
Fang Qinglan raised his eyebrows: Message? What is the message?
"Let him in."
"Yes! General! β
β¦β¦
After a while, a guard of the Imperial Forest Army on horseback came running in the distance, came to the front, dismounted and knelt on the ground.
"See the general! See the county lord! On the orders of the emperor, he came to inform His Royal Highness the county lord to return to Beijing urgently. β
When Fang Qinglan heard this, his brows flashed with displeasure, "What's the matter of letting her go back in such a hurry?" β
"Back to the general, all the lords in the court are reluctant to go to the land of Yunshu to control the water, and they blame each other, and in the end, the emperor decided to send the county lord Lanwan to go."
The Imperial Guards replied succinctly.
Lan Wan didn't have a smile when she heard that it was not a good thing, "You get up first!" β
"Lord Xie."
"I still have some things to deal with here, I'll go back tomorrow."
"However, Your Majesty is waiting for you to return today to receive the decree." The Imperial Forest Army guard didn't move, looking at Lan Wan, embarrassed.
Lan Wan: ......
Ban Yu,
"Alas! Okay, I know, you're not too late, I still have some things to deal with with the general, you go back first and tell him I'll go back later. β
"Yes, county lord, retire from your duties."
After saying that, the guard turned to leave,
"Huh! Wait a minute. β
Lan Wan hurriedly stopped him, walked up to him, and handed him the water bladder on her waist, "I don't go out often when I see you, next time you come out, remember to bring more water." β
"This ...... Thank you, Your Highness! β
The guard glanced at Lan Wan in surprise and took the water bladder.
"Well, it's fine."
When the guard walked away, all the soldiers reacted, huh? That water bag belongs to the county lord! The guard didn't bring any water at all.
Fang Qinglan saw it in his eyes, his face was not abnormal, but he couldn't calm down to deploy the drill, they said that he listened, and felt that it was right, so he said "um", and finally Lan Wan and the generals reported to him that they had finished their plan, Fang Qinglan only said to stop for a while, and then finalize it in a few days.
β¦β¦
Everyone didn't know what was going on, why a few days? Of course, it's because Fang Qinglan hasn't thought about this plan yet, and his brain is busy!
In the afternoon, Lan Wan didn't want to take a bath, but Fang Qinglan said that it was too hot, and if she didn't wash it, she would be sour and sour when she rode back, so she obediently asked Fang Qinglan to help her take a bath.
As everyone knows, the person who helped her control the wind was the only one who peeked at her.
Fang Qinglan didn't want to, but he found that his eyes were always disobedient recently, and he kept looking at that idiot.
After taking a shower, the two went to the 17th Army and the 18th Army to explain the recent training schedule, as for how they won the competition during the drill, Lan Wan told them, come on, do it yourself! This time I'm going to send you real gold.
Soldiers: Huh...... Scold......
You'd better be telling the truth!
On the way back to Fang Qinglan's camp, Lan Wan found that Fang Qinglan seemed to be unhappy again.
"Qinglan! You don't seem to be happy! Is it because I have to leave before the training is over? β
Fang Qinglan: What do you say? But the opening was: "How is it possible! Why do you feel so good about yourself! As far as you are the head of the sect who can't wait for me to be eight meals a day, I wish you would leave early!
