Chapter Seventy-One: The Missing Boy

It's late at night.

The East Palace, the main hall, is still brightly lit.

Crash.

The crown prince Li Chengqian grabbed the plate in the hand of the palace maid next to him and smashed it on the ground, because of the rude action, when the plate was thrown out, a corner of the palace maid's cheek was cut, and a blood mark suddenly appeared on a tender white little face.

Li Chengqian looked at it and said angrily: "Get out, don't dirty the eyes of this palace." ”

The palace maid ran away with tears in her eyes, and the others hurried forward to clean up the things on the ground.

Below, Jiang Xian was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, and said in fear: "Your Highness, I deserve to die, it's because I didn't do things well, it's just that today's weather is really unfortunate, I haven't seen such a heavy rain for many years, and most of the students are thin and weak, so it's really difficult to fight against this storm......"

Seeing this, Li Chengqian hurriedly walked down and personally helped Jiang Xian up.

Jiang Xian has reached the year of crowning, and Li Chengqian is only fourteen years old, and Jiang Xian is a head taller than him.

Corporal Li Chengqian Lixian said: "Ziyu doesn't have to be like this, this matter, this palace is not to blame you, things like wind and rain, but natural changes, how can you predict it, this palace is angry, even God is on Du He's side...... You are the confidant of this palace, as long as you pass the imperial examination this autumn, when the time comes, this palace can ask your father to let you hold an important position in the East Palace, and we will work together to conspire for a great cause. Today's incident is a small setback, and dealing with Duhe is a big thing, how can you be discouraged by this small thing. ”

Jiang Xian listened to it and was so moved that he didn't know what to say.

As for Li Chengqian, it is not that he does not blame Jiang Xian in his heart, but Jiang Xian's talent and fame are among the best in the country, and he was recommended by Kong Yingda, although he is a standard Confucian disciple, he is not pedantic, but he is very good at strategy, and has planned a lot of things for him.

This trick is really useful.

Jiang Xian assured: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, after I go back, I will plan this matter carefully, and next time, I must give Du He a hard time." ”

Li Chengqian nodded with satisfaction: "Of course this palace believes in you, but don't make too much trouble about this matter, otherwise it will reach the ears of my father, and this palace will have to be scolded again." ”

Jiang Xian's chicken nodded like a peck of rice: "I'll do something, Your Highness, please rest assured." ”

……

Morning.

A carriage came galloping from Dongbian Street and stopped at the gate of Yan's Mansion.

The carriage stopped, the curtain was lifted, and out of the carriage came a young man of twenty-six or seventeen years old, dressed in a cyan robe, full of elegance.

It's just that the young man's face is full of anxiety at the moment.

Seeing him step forward, he said loudly to the two guards guarding the gate of the Yan Mansion: "I am the prince of the country and speak directly to Deng Chaoping, a disciple of Master Confucius, if you want to see the secretary and young eunuch Lord Yan!" ”

A middle-aged man flashed out of the door, it was the housekeeper of the Yan Mansion.

The housekeeper stepped forward and said, "It turns out that Deng Zhi said, dare to ask if there is anything important to see our master, I will be polite." ”

Deng Chaoping's tone was even more anxious, and said: "It's too late, please take me to see Lord Yan immediately, Yan Wentian, the young master of the Yan Mansion, is missing." ”

The housekeeper's eyes widened, and he hurriedly said, "Deng Zhi, please come with me." ”

Under the leadership of the housekeeper, Deng Chaoping met Yan Shigu, the secretary of the dynasty, and the young eunuch in the backyard.

Yan Shigu was in the backyard, holding an ancient book in his hand, and suddenly heard Deng Chaoping say that his grandson Yan Wentian had disappeared.

Smack.

The ancient book in his hand fell to the ground.

Yan Shigu hurriedly stood up, stared at Deng Chaoping and asked, "What the hell is going on?" Wen Tiannai was personally sent to Guozijian by me, why is Hao Duanduan missing now? ”

Deng Chaoping hurriedly said: "This matter is a long story, everything is caused by Du He......"

Deng Chaoping briefly explained the matter.

It turned out that after Jiang Xian and the others returned to Guozijian yesterday, they were so discouraged that they didn't count the number of people.

As a result, during the morning class this morning, everyone found out that the youngest Yan Wentian was gone.

searched the entire Guozijian, but there was no trace of Yan Wentian.

At this time, the entire Guozijian panicked, and while sending people to find Yan Wentian's whereabouts, he sent a direct message to Deng Chaoping to Yan's mansion.

After hearing this, Yan Shigu said angrily: "Nonsense, it's really nonsense, Wen Cai has just entered the age of thirteen, and he was actually taken by you to the gate of the Laiguo Mansion to meditate, who doesn't know that Duhe is a famous scourge in Chang'an City, if something happens to my grandson, I will not finish with you!" ”

Deng Chaoping explained helplessly: "Lord Yan misunderstood, I didn't participate in this matter, it was all done by my junior brother Jiang Xian, but the top priority is to find someone first, as for the accountability, let's wait until we find Wen Tian!" ”

Yan Shigu nodded: "For this matter, I'm afraid I have to go to the Laiguo Mansion first." ”

"I would like to accompany Lord Yan to the Lai Guo Mansion!" Deng Chaoping said sincerely.

As the direct speaker of Guozijian, he can be regarded as Yan Wentian's teacher, if Yan Wentian really has an accident, he will have to bear a lot of responsibility at that time.

……

Datang Furniture Factory.

Du He sat in the courtyard, crossed Erlang's legs, and looked at the busy workers.

Workers come and go, busy.

Among them, there is Yan Wentian, who is thin and small.

While others could take five sticks of wood at a time, he could only take one at a time.

After a busy morning, two blisters appeared on Yan Wentian's hands.

He also thought about being lazy, but as soon as he saw the fierce and vicious appearance of his master Dazhu, he didn't dare to be lazy, and he worked harder than anyone else.

Da Zhu broke the gong and said: "Look, boy, I'll teach you again, assemble these parts in order, if you can't learn it again, I will hand you over to the young master, and let him punish you well." ”

Yan Wentian nodded seriously.

This is the third time he has studied, and he strives to memorize every movement of the big pillar.

In fact, Yan Wentian is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very smart, but he lacks hands-on ability.

After learning three times, without the guidance of Dazhu, Yan Wentian finally assembled the first carousel chair in his life.

"Wow, I made it, I made it......"

Yan Wentian said happily, and he was a little proud.

Originally, it was just a scattered part, but he never imagined that after assembling it himself, it would turn into a rotating wooden chair with a complex structure.

Syllable.

Dazhu walked over, slapped Yan Wentian on the back of the head, and said dissatisfiedly: "You fool, you only assembled a chair in the morning, if everyone was like you, you would have been swept out of the house by the young master a long time ago." ”

Although the tone was stern, the tone was much softer.

When Yan Wentian turned around and went to work, Dazhu said slowly: "This kid is very smart and dexterous, much smarter than the fool in my family...... He is worthy of a young man who reads and writes! ”
