Originally, Mrs. Pei wanted to send Xue Shao home in a carriage, but Xue Shao refused to ride home by himself, and he was relatively sober along the way. But the night breeze blew all the way and the qi and blood ran faster, and the strength of the forty-year-old wine began to attack.

jumped off the horse and landed on both feet, and Xue Shao almost fell to the ground with a stumble. Wu Ming appeared behind Xue Shao like a ghost, holding his waist and back with one hand and holding him steadily, and the other hand was also holding a large wine jar, not spilling a drop of wine.

Xue Shao squinted his eyes and glanced at him in a daze, his eyes were closed very reassuringly, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, he fell asleep.

Wu Ming carried Xue Shao's whole person on his shoulders with one arm, and strode into the Xue Mansion with the wine jar in the other hand.

Xue Yi was waiting for his good brother to come home, and told him about the matter of facing the saint in the palace today. At first glance, seeing Wu Ming coming home in such a shape, Xue Yi was taken aback on the spot!

The servants on the left and right hurriedly carried Xue Shao back to the bedroom to change clothes and rest, and the moon slave wiped Xue Shao's face, washed his feet, covered the bedding, and stood outside Xue Shao's bedroom.

After settling Xue Shao, Xue Yi hurriedly called Wu Ming over for questioning, saying how could Erlang get drunk like this? Wu Ming briefly told him about today's events.

Xue Yi was very surprised when he heard this, "Erlang actually got drunk with Pei Xingjian?" ”

Wu Ming smiled: "Is this strange wonder? ”

"It's weird, it's incredible!" Xue Yi said, "Since Pei Xingjian was transferred back to the capital from the Western Regions to take up his post, he has been closed to customers all year round, and he has never traveled around with any colleagues. It is said that the weeds in his yard are almost a man deep. Not to mention that he was drunk at home with a royal relative like Erlang and the Son of Heaven guard, even if he was a little scribe without rank, he wouldn't talk much. Pei Xingjian's cautiousness is almost unkind, which is something that is well known to both the government and the opposition. How could he be so out of line today? ”

"As far as I know, the second son and Pei Xingjian reached an important tacit understanding today." Wu Ming said, "The Pei family and his wife seem to have entrusted Gu to the second son. ”

"What?" Xue Yi was taken aback again, "Tuogu?!" ”

Wu Ming nodded, "That's right, it's Tuogu." ”

Xue Yi's expression became very solemn, pondered for a long time, and suddenly nodded in understanding, "I see, I see!" ”

"Junhou, it seems that the ambition of the second prince is not just to be a Qingping horse and an idle thousand cows." Wu Ming said, "Sooner or later, he will enter the road of martial arts." Going out to fight will become his daily routine. Maybe one day he can really inherit Pei Xingjian's mantle and achieve a lifetime of fame! ”

"I haven't seen him for two years, and I almost don't dare to recognize him as a younger brother." Xue Yi said with deep feelings, "Today's Dan Rhino Face Saint, the Second Sage are full of praise when they mention Erlang, saying that he is extraordinary in civil and military affairs, not only a perfect candidate for a horse, but also a pillar of the country in the future." The two saints are also people, and all the talents in the world are used for them. I was really shocked that they gave Jiro such a high evaluation in unison! ”

Wu Ming smiled and said, "Isn't this a good thing?" ”

Xue Yi's eyebrows tightened, nodded, and shook his head again, "Erlang can be chosen by the second saint as the concubine of Princess Taiping, and he has already stood on the cusp of the storm and suffered countless envy; If he is too popular in the military or political arena in the future, he will inevitably face a situation where Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind. As soon as he accidentally falls on his heel, someone will immediately fall into the well and climb on him. Those people may have an enmity with him, or they may have nothing to do with him, even if they are close friends who are close friends on weekdays, it is possible! - Officialdom has always been killing every step and killing without seeing blood, who can guarantee that they will never make mistakes?! ”

Wu Ming still smiled indifferently and said: "Junhou, in my opinion, the second prince must have been mentally prepared for a long time, and he has a full and clear understanding of the crises and dangers he may face in the future. Moreover, his approach was neither to fear nor to escape, but to fight against the current. Since he came to Chang'an, the poor monk has not seen the second son waste even a moment of time and do a useless thing. When a man starts a career, he must first aspire; The key to success lies in focus. The second son is both talented and specialized, and there are nobles to help and support, why worry about not being able to achieve great things in the future? ”

"That's right...... Xue Yi sighed softly, "Actually, I would prefer Erlang to be a rich man who has nothing to do as before, even if it is absurd, it doesn't matter." The royal family has no affection, once he steps into that palace gate, Erlang's life will undergo earth-shaking changes. Since then, he is destined to never be able to stay away from the political whirlpool, from danger and killing, from the party, and from the shackles of fame, fortune and power! ”

Wu Ming nodded, "The prince loves the young heart, and the gods can learn from it." Ling Zun's spirit in the sky should be greatly relieved. But I still have to advise the prince and the marquis, for the matter of the second son, the prince should not worry too much and interfere. ”

"Shouldn't I, as the eldest brother, take care of my second brother's affairs?" Xue Yi said.

Wu Ming smiled, "The prince should take care of it." But the prince can't manage it anymore. ”

"......" Xue Yi was stunned.

Wu Ming said: "Prince, there is a fact in front of you - as long as the second son and Princess Taiping are married, in the near future, the Xue family will inevitably be the only one who will be the second son. What kind of height the second prince can reach will determine the future situation and status of the Xue family and the Junhou family. Now, the second prince is radical and determined to move forward, and the prince should give his full support without hesitation, which is more important than anything else. The trust and encouragement of the prince will be a breath of the second son's heart. If the prince repeatedly shows these worries and gains and losses in front of him, it will only tie the hands and feet of the second prince, increase his burden, and may even vent his heart. Once the second prince rests on his laurels and stagnates or even breaks the jar, it may be a disaster for the Xue family - the prince, isn't he a sinner? ”

After Xue Yi heard these words, he broke out in a cold sweat!

Then, he bowed down to Wu Ming, "The master's dialing is like an initiation, which makes me suddenly realize that I have lost my way back!" In the future, I will think of Erlang in everything and never go against him! ”

Wu Ming hurriedly lifted him up, "The prince is such a big gift, the poor monk can't bear it, please get up!" ”

Xue Yi stubbornly bowed and did not move, "Deserve it, deserve it!" On the day of my father's death, I promised the master to be lonely, and the master was the master of my three brothers! ”

Wu Ming said with a smile: "The poor monks really don't like this worship. Pei Xingjian gave me a jar of forty-year-old daughter red, and I only licked two taels. Since the prince wants to thank me, then accompany me to drink! ”

"Forty years old daughter red? That's a treasure in the world! Xue Yi was overjoyed, "I am willing to conspire with the master to get drunk!" ”

At dawn, Xue Shao woke up from a full sleep and was very thirsty. It was very dark in the room, he wanted to get up and find some tea to drink, and just made a little noise, the voice of the moon slave sounded outside the door, "Childe is awake?" ”

Xue Shao responded, and the moon slave immediately came in with the lamp to serve, and was busy carrying tea and pouring water.

"Moon slave, you haven't slept all night?"

"Hmm...... Serve the son, don't dare to make mistakes. ”

"These days, I went to the palace on an errand, my brother and sister-in-law came for the first time, and you are the only one to take care of everything in the family, and I have worked hard for you." Xue Shao said while drinking hot tea.

"This is a matter within the responsibility of the moon slave, and I dare not say bitterness." Yuenu said.

Xue Shao nodded and said, "You should have something to say to me, right?" ”

The moon slave hesitated for a moment and shook his head.

"Say."

"Yes......" The moon slave answered obediently and said, "The son is about to marry the princess, and the moon slave doesn't know where to go......"

Xue Shao smiled and said, "Do you think that if I get married, I will leave you and the demon behind?" ”

"Even if Gongzi doesn't give up on us, how can Princess Taiping tolerate us? Even if she verbally tolerated us, wouldn't we be disgusted by her when we dangle in front of her eyes from time to time, and if it affected the relationship between Childe and her, the moon slave would die! "So Moon Nu was thinking that when his stepfather returned to Jeju one day, Moon Nu followed his stepfather to Jeju." lest you stay in Chang'an and embarrass your son. ”

Xue Shao slammed the tea bowl in his hand on the table with a bang.

The moon slave panicked, and quickly knelt down, "The moon slave said in vain, and the son was angry!" ”

"Yue slave, listen, I and Princess Taiping are married by Ming Media, it's not that I signed a deed of sale and sold myself to her as a house slave." Xue Shao said, "I know that in everyone's eyes, I, Xue Shao, am a dragon and a phoenix, but in this brown marriage, I will not give up anything and sacrifice anyone." This includes not only dignity, but also you, Moon Slave! ”

The moon slave was speechless and fell to the ground, and burst into tears.

Wu Ming's voice sounded outside the door, "Moon slave, when did the poor monk say that he was going back to Jeju?" ”

With the hearing and vigilance of Xue Shao and Yue Nu, they didn't notice any sound from Wu Ming going upstairs. Both of them were taken aback at the same time, and they both turned their heads to look at the door.

Wu Ming appeared at the door with a harmless smile, bowed to Xue Shao in the door, and said: "The poor monk has asked the quasi-prince to let the poor monk stay in Chang'an to guard the house for the son, and I hope that the son will be allowed to take it in!" ”

Xue Shao bowed to Wu Ming in surprise, "The master helps me, I can't ask for it!" ”

……

Today, the construction of the martial arts academy started, Xue Shao packed his bags early, and prepared to go to meet everyone outside the Xuanwu Gate of the Daming Palace.

Just as he was about to ride out of the house, Xue Yi shouted from behind: "Erlang stay!" ”

"Big brother, what's wrong?" Xue Shao stopped.

Xue Yi quickly stepped forward and looked Xue Shao up and down, showing a reassuring expression, and said, "Brother is afraid that you will have a hangover and run to the palace before you wake up." It's nothing, just tell you that I will let Wu Ming follow you in the future. He was a close friend of his father's life, and he was a capable and capable person. You should treat them as a teacher, and don't take them lightly. ”

"Big brother, don't worry." Xue Shao said, "To have a capable person like Master Wu to help me by my side, the little brother can't ask for it!" ”

"Okay, you can go quickly!"

Xue Shao said goodbye to his brother and rode on his horse, leaving the dust.

Xue Yi looked at Xue Shao's distant back, and let out a long breath leisurely, "My old Xue family is going to change the pillars!" ”.
