Beiyang City, outside the National Teacher's Mansion.

The National Teacher's Mansion looks very inconspicuous in Beiyang City, not because its location is not good, on the contrary, its location can be said to be absolutely good, but it is naturally very inconspicuous when it is close to the palace.

"You go and report it, come back next time, let's go back first. ”

There was a carriage parked outside the National Teacher's Mansion, and there were several long ruts where the carriage came, not to say how heavy the carriage was, but that it had fallen a lot of snow in Beiyang City, and the whole city was snow-white.

The National Teacher's Mansion in front of him has no longer regained its original quaint temperament, it has become very snow-white and pure, and everything around it seems very clean.

"Sir, but there's something else. Said one of the butlers who was driving the carriage at the front of the carriage.

"The national teacher is very punctual, since it is a little late, then we don't have to bother, just come back tomorrow. ”

"Yes, sir. ”

Inside the National Teacher's Mansion.

An old man with silver hair sat quietly in the pavilion, admiring the snow outside, his waist was very straight, like a pine and cypress standing proudly, and his hair was still meticulously combed, it was Luo Dan, the national teacher.

There was also a very old dog, huddled next to the fire to keep warm.

"Sir, Lord Goshi will come back tomorrow. A man who looked like a butler stood outside the pavilion and said respectfully.

"Well, I know, it's cold, you should go back to the house early. The National Teacher spoke, his lips humming and pulling the wrinkles on his face, but they didn't look weak.

"Yes, yes. ”

The next person retired.

There was only one person left in the pavilion, and his eyes were very close to the tree in front of him, which was covered with snowflakes and sat there quietly.

Such a tree is very common, in this city, this kind of weather is not uncommon, on the contrary, it can be seen everywhere, but his eyes did not move the slightest, and he was still looking seriously, as if his eyes should have stayed there, as if he was looking at some rare wonder.

This only shows that he is not looking at the scenery, but thinking about something.

"It's the New Year. ”

After a long time, the National Normal University said a sentence to himself, and his eyes looked a little sad.

On the second day, outside the National Teacher's Mansion.

"You go and report it, let's go back first. ”

It was still the same carriage, the snow on the body was a little thicker than yesterday, and the rut marks in the distance were no longer visible, as if the carriage had not moved at all, and had always stayed here.

"Yes. ”

The carriage was very heavy, and a horse pulling the cart in front of it was panting hard, and the body of the carriage was covered with icicles, and the rut marks that had just come out were immediately covered by the wind and snow, and the butler who drove the car was even more eyebrow-stained with a layer of white frost.

"Master, this is the second time we've come, you're the Imperial Doctor, and it's not that you're not punctual, it's really because of the weather, can't the National Teacher be a little accommodating?"

The housekeeper of the Imperial History Mansion didn't understand this, could it be that this national teacher's shelf was really so big?

"It's too late, it's too late, and it's another day. ”

The carriage faded away.

"Sir, Lord Goshi will come back tomorrow. ”

"Well, got it, let's go back to the house early. ”

The national teacher still sat quietly in the pavilion to enjoy the snow, the wind and snow were a little bigger, but he was always wearing only single clothes, it was hard to believe that this was an old man with white hair.

Day 3, early in the morning.

In the early morning, Beiyang City was very quiet, there was only a howling wind and a snowstorm, and the two figures on the central street gradually emerged from the wind and snow.

"Master, do we need this?" said the housekeeper of the Imperial History Mansion, holding an umbrella.

"We're twice late, it's already disrespectful. It's just three things, and this time I have to go early. Doctor Yu Shi said with difficulty as he stretched his arm in front of his forehead to block the wind and snow in front of him.

"Is the National Teacher really so terrible?"

"What you said is not right, the national teacher is not terrible, but respectable. ”

"Yes, yes, it's the villain who lost his word. ”

Although the butler said that he was speechless, he was still muttering in his heart, let the adults of his family visit so early, such a person can be regarded as respectable? Moreover, the Imperial Doctor is known for his pride and decisiveness, why has he become so humble now? Is this still the old man of his own family?

The two of them walked for about half an hour.

"What time is it?"

"Back to my lord, it's time now. ”

"Hmm. I made an appointment with the National Teacher, and after the hour is the hour, let's wait here for a while. ”

"Master, it's not okay if it's early?"

"It's disrespectful to be too early or too late, so let's just wait a while. ”

Although the housekeeper didn't understand this, he was just a subordinate, and the master didn't have any opinions, so he naturally had no right to refute, and the two of them honestly waited outside the National Teacher's Mansion.

"I've seen Lord Yushi, but I need the villain to go and announce it. ”

When the subordinates outside the National Teacher's Mansion saw the two people outside the door, they naturally recognized that it was the Imperial Doctor, and hurriedly ran up to greet him and asked.

"No, just wait a minute. ”

It's not early, it's not too late, it's just time to arrive.

"It's been a long time since I've had such a big snow in Beichang. The National Teacher Luo Dan sat in the pavilion and said.

"Yes, the Chinese New Year is coming in a blink of an eye, and the body of the national teacher is still so tough. Imperial Doctor Choi Xianggong replied.

"Master Cui, you are for the sake of the eldest prince. ”

"Don't dare to deceive the national teacher, His Royal Highness the eldest prince has been imprisoned in the palace for more than five months, and now the court can be said to be panicked, and the lord of the country is suffering repeatedly, how can I have no successor in Beichang?"

"The lord of the kingdom is angry with the eldest prince because of that incident, what can you and I do?" said Rodin with a light sigh, full of helplessness.

"Master Guoshi, I don't agree with what you said, there is no evidence to prove that the eldest prince did it, even if this is the case, should we not do anything? ”

"You're too worried, it's not time yet, you and I can't do anything, the lord of the country can still manage the country's affairs now, let alone damage the country's body, we just need to do our own work in peace. ”

"What are you waiting for?" Cui Xianggong really couldn't understand the meaning of Rodin's words.

"Time will arrange everything, and whether the result is good or bad, it is the result. Isn't what you and I are waiting for the same result? ”

Rodin sighed softly, more as if he were talking to himself.

"I still don't understand, since we all want a result, of course we have to get the best, how can anyone want a bad outcome?"

"Is it really that important to have a good outcome, a bad outcome? Maybe it's important for some people. But not making a choice is also a good outcome. The lord is hesitating, and this hesitation is not necessarily a bad thing, what we do is very simple, just keep waiting. ”

"What is the Lord of the Kingdom hesitating about?"

"How can we know what the lord is thinking, you don't have to think about it, just let it be. ”

"Yes, Master Guoshi, the lower official has lost his word. ”

Cui Xianggong left the National Teacher's Mansion and returned the same way.

"Master, what kind of person is the national teacher?" The housekeeper of the Imperial History Mansion has always wondered what kind of person the national teacher is, and he can make such a proud person of his family master become so humble, and the housekeeper doesn't think that this is afraid.

"The National Teacher is a very wonderful person, sometimes I think he is very mysterious, he doesn't care about everything, and this kind of indifference sometimes seems to be more like everything is under his control. ”

"Sir. The villain doesn't understand you. The butler scratched his head and savored this sentence carefully, and couldn't think of what it meant after thinking for a long time.

"Hahaha, it's really hard to understand, and I don't understand what I mean by saying this, maybe I'll have this kind of understanding if I stay with the national teacher for a long time, let's go, let's go back." ”

Inside the National Teacher's Mansion.

The national teacher Rodin still sat quietly in the pavilion, even if he was always the only one left in the pavilion.
