Chapter 80: A Sword
In the next few days, Han Yan went out significantly less, but spent more time reading and writing with Han Shuo. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoThere is also more time to practice martial arts with Huang Zhong every morning.
But it's not been a few days since I said it, because as soon as I entered March, the whole Han Mansion was busy, because Han Yan was going to perform the crown salute.
In fact, Han Yan really didn't know what he was busy with all day, looking at the wide variety of items, Han Yan felt that he had a headache, and he simply left Han Zhong at his mercy.
"Childe, please turn around."
Han Zhong held a wooden ruler in one hand and recorded the results of the measurement on the table next to him in the other.
"Hmm!"
Han Yan agreed expressionlessly, and then turned around.
This is the third time today, just to measure the figure and make a dress, why is it so troublesome? Han Yan really didn't understand.
Just when Han Yan was bored, Cai Yao walked in from outside, looked at Han Yan who was standing there and was at the mercy of Han Zhong, and ran over with a laugh.
"Brother Yan!"
"Hmm!" Another trouble appeared, Han Yan wanted to escape at the moment, but he was helpless.
Since the news of her crown salute spread, not only Cao Cao and Yuan Shao have come to Hanfu more often, but even Cai Yao, a little girl, has been running to Hanfu three times a day. Of course, out of the idea of avoiding suspicion, Cai Yan did not come with Cai Yao.
"Brother Yan! What are you doing? ā
Cai Yao's big eyes flashed, looking at Han Yan innocently, but her eyes were full of infatuation with Han Yan.
"I don't know ......"
If he could, Han Yan wanted to flip the table at the moment, and when he was chatting with others, he didn't hear that the crown ceremony was so troublesome!
"Oh! Brother Yan, do you have time for a while? ā
Pouting, Cai Yao was a little depressed, it seemed that his brother Yan had been a little cold for a while?
"I don't know ......"
The answer came out, and even Han Yan himself had a feeling of being ridiculous, what is this!
"Then what do you know?"
Cai Yao, who had endured for a long time, finally broke out after Han Yan's another 'I don't know', pinching her waist with both hands, and her face was full of anger. It's just that Cai Yao's cute little face doesn't make people feel the slightest discomfort even if they are angry.
"I don't know what else I know!"
Han Yan sighed helplessly, suddenly feeling like a puppet, at the mercy of others, but he never knew what he was going to do.
At this time, Han Zhong had already finished the work in his hands, reached out and picked up the book on the table, and bent slightly towards Han Yan, "Childe, the matter here is over." If there's nothing to do, then you can go to the master's place! ā
"It's over? Do you mean it's really over? Don't have to come back in the future? ā
Hearing this 'good news', Han Yan couldn't believe his ears, and hurriedly asked a few questions, for fear that he had heard it wrong.
"yes!" Han Zhong nodded helplessly, it seemed that the events of the past few days were about to drive Gongzi crazy, "Tomorrow is the day of Gongzi's crown ceremony, and besides, the size of your clothes has been collected, so you really don't need to come again." ā
"Whew!" With a sigh of relief, Han Yan relaxed, he had been busy, and he was about to forget the time. Turning around, he beckoned Cai Yao, "Yao'er, if you don't have anything to do, go back first!" I've got a little bit of something to do. ā
"I don't!"
Pouted, Cai Yao's face was full of unhappiness, and she had no intention of hiding it at all, and directly looked like a scoundrel who cried to you without making the old lady happy.
"Uh...... "Who did this bear kid learn from!" Han Yan now has the desire to hit his head against the wall, and if he continues like this, he will have to go crazy! "That...... Yao'er! I'm looking for you, Uncle Han, are you sure you want to go with me? ā
"This ...... This ......" Cai Yao hesitated a little, Uncle Han was old and stubborn, and he didn't mean anything at all, but if he really let her leave Han Yan, he was a little reluctant in his heart, and it was really difficult to choose.
"You see, it's not my fault."
spread out his hands and made a helpless gesture, but Han Yan's heart was happy, he knew that the old man was so easy to use, he should have brought it out to 'suppress' Cai Yao before!
It's just that before Han Yan could be happy for long, Cai Yao's little face changed, and it was already full of perseverance, "I want to go with you!" ā
Cai Yao's righteous style fell into Han Yan's eyes, and she already wanted to vomit blood! What's going on? What is the matter with Cai Yao's expression on the execution ground? Could it be that the deterrent power of his old man has reached such a point?
was a little surprised in his heart, but Han Yan didn't continue to dwell on this issue, stretched out his hand and patted Cai Yao's little head, and walked outside first, "Come if you want to!" ā
"Hmm!"
Cai Yao agreed, and with a burst of joy in her heart, she chased after Han Yan's back.
When he arrived at Han Shuo's study, he saw Han Shuo sitting with Xun Jing drinking tea, his expression was sometimes serious and sometimes relaxed, but Han Yan couldn't understand what the two of them were talking about.
"Yan'er is here! Come on in! ā
As soon as he heard the footsteps outside the door, without waiting for Han Yan to speak, Han said that he already knew here, and there was no more nonsense, so he directly called him in.
"Yes."
In response, Han Yan suddenly felt that something was wrong, and it seemed that he was ...... There's something going on today!
It's not that Han Yan discovered the abnormality in Han Yan's words, it was purely an intuition, as if someone was staring at him from behind, and a creepy feeling rose from his back, making people shudder.
"Yao'er, I think you'd better not go in with me, otherwise you'll definitely be kicked out by your Uncle Han."
Kindly reminded that Han Yan's feet had already stepped into the door.
"Humph!"
snorted very cutely, Cai Yao followed behind Han Yan and also entered the study.
Han Shuo, who was originally talking to Xun Jing without a word, found Cai Yao following behind him when the corner of his eyes swept over Han Yan, and couldn't help frowning, "Huh? Yao'er, why are you here? ā
"Uncle...... Hello uncle. ā
Hiding behind Han Yan, Cai Yao was so nervous that she tugged on Han Yan's sleeve, somehow, every time she saw this Uncle Han, it really made Cai Yao feel worried.
"Hmmm! I'll talk to Han Yan about something, you go outside for a while first! ā
waved his hand indifferently, Han Shuo didn't ask much, and directly started to pick people.
"Oh!" Cai Yao pouted, but she didn't dare not listen to what Han said, so she could only pull Han Yan's sleeve and whispered, "Brother Yan, I'll wait for you outside......"
After speaking, Cai Yao immediately ran out of the study, as if Han said that it was some kind of flood beast.
"Huh! What a girl! ā
Shaking his head slightly, Han Shuo couldn't help but laugh.
"You're looking for me?"
Although he felt that he was a little bored to ask, Han Yan really couldn't find anything else to say, so he could only say so.
"Hmmm! Come over here and talk! ā
At this time, Han Shuo was sitting in the study room on the west side, but he was not in the room on the east side as usual.
Han Yan raised his eyes and felt that something seemed to be wrong with today's situation. As usual, Han said that hospitality has never been in the habit of leading people to the west, even if he is familiar with Cai Yong, he has never met guests in the study. In addition, Han Yan also saw a sword, a sword placed between Han Shuo and Xun Jing.
If it weren't for the repeated inspection, Han Yan really wouldn't have found that there was another sword placed there, because this sword was too unpretentious. The sword looked no more than two feet long, but it was more than a little shorter than the ordinary three-foot Qingfeng, and the scabbard was also gray, as if it was covered with a layer of dust.
Looking at this unusual environment, Han Yan instinctively felt that something big would happen today, but he had already arrived here, even if it was really a sea of swords and fire, Han Yan could only go inside.
Coming to Han Shuo's side with anxiety, he lowered his head and looked at his toes, Han Yan's heart was already like a mess, messy.
"Yan'er, do you know what I came to you for today?"
Looking at Han Yan, who was cramped and uneasy, it was Xun Jing who spoke first.
"I don't know."
It's not that Han Yan is honest, but in the face of Xun Jing and Han Shuo, two old men who have lived for several dynasties, it is more wrong to say more, but it is better to be simple and clear, and resign yourself to fate.
"Hmmm! It's an honest boy. ā
Xun Jing nodded, stroked his beard, and didn't say anything more.
Look at Xun Jing, Han said that he couldn't help but complain, if you want to say it, you have said it, this is the first step to speak, and he slipped away after asking this question that is nothing, what is this? But even if he was a little unhappy in his heart, the matter still had to be done, he stretched out his hand and tapped the table twice with a 'dong dong', Han Shuo sighed, "Alas! Yan'er, I'm afraid...... I'm dying! ā
"Huh?" Han Yan was stunned for a moment, Han Yan didn't ask Zhang Ji about Han Shuo's condition these days, plus Han Shuo's complexion was obviously good in the past few days, and no one would take it to heart, when he said this today, Han Yan's mind couldn't help but be confused, "What did you say?" ā
"I said I didn't have a long time to die!"
Perhaps thinking of how big the impact of this sentence was on Han Yan, Han Shuo did not feel the slightest displeasure, and repeated it again with patience.
"How could it be! You're not ......"
Subconsciously, Han Yan felt that this was Han Shuo wanting to arrange things for himself, after all, there was only this kind of request similar to 'bequest' to speak, and it was easier for the other party to do it.
"You speak slowly!" waved his hand and signaled Han Yan not to interrupt his words, and then Han Shuo seemed to be caught in a memory, and said: "Since I have studied and entered the court, it has not been once or twice for the Son of Heaven to divination. Divination has always been detrimental to longevity, and it stands to reason that there are few dynasties and dynasties who can live to my age. It's just that when people are old, there are always some things that can't be let go, Yan'er, do you understand what I mean? ā
According to ordinary people, Han Yan should cry bitterly next, and then swear how to do it, of course, Han Shuo also guessed so, but Han Yan's thinking did not follow Han Shuo.
"There are not many dynasties and dynasties? So what's going on with Yu Ji? ā
As soon as he said divination, Han Yan naturally remembered the Taoist who had appeared in his dream, if it weren't for Han Shuo's mention that this person did exist, Han Yan naturally wouldn't think much about it, but now that he thinks about it, Yu Ji is much older than Han Shuo!
"Ahem! Yan'er, you didn't understand what I meant. Being asked by Han Yan like this, Han Shuo suddenly felt helpless, but these things still have to be explained to Han Yan clearly, otherwise it will not be easy to proceed, "Yu Ji and these people are naturally countless in the past dynasties, but they are not used by the imperial court, so they are not the luck of the world." The number of longevity is naturally more than that of me in the court. ā
"You...... Do you want me to become an official? ā
Obedient and obedient, from what Han said, Han Yan was very keen to guess Han Yan's intentions, but he didn't dare to believe it.
"Uh...... Oh, yes! ā
Looking at Xun Jing on the other side with some embarrassment, Han said that he felt a little embarrassed, and this child's thinking was not so agile in the past! Why is it so abnormal today?
"Huh!"
chuckled, Xun Jing was happy, it didn't seem like a bad thing to have such a smart and clever student?
"Forgive me."
Without the slightest hesitation, Han spoke in a flat tone, but he said these four words resolutely. Entering the court as an official? Are you kidding! Some time ago, he almost died in the Pleated Dragon Garden, and finally escaped, why did Han Yan want to drill into the court without opening it?
"This ...... Words! You know what you're talking about! ā
Surprised by Han Yan's resolute attitude, Han Yan's brows were already furrowed, it seemed that this kid was resistant to the imperial court, but why did the tortoise shell still show that he was the best candidate?
"I know. But I'm disappointed, I don't want to go down the list. Maybe this answer will hurt Han Shuo's heart, but even if it is to avoid less than one ten-thousandth of the risk, Han Yan can't take the risk, "In today's imperial court, if I can't get in, what's the difference?" ā
When he said this, Han Yan was careful about it. In today's imperial court, is there a difference whether Han Yan can enter or not? It seems that there is naturally no, the three princes and nine qing, the princes and generals, and even the county lieutenants already have them, where is there still a lack of such a hairy boy as Han Yan? As for today's unevenness, where can Han Yan be used? However, in Han Shuo's opinion, this is not the case, but Han Shuo can't say that it is clearly shown by the hexagram, and he doesn't know what to say for a while.
"I ...... Burst! Han Shuo frowned, and just as he wanted to speak, a mouthful of blood had already spurted out of his mouth first, splashing Xun Jing's body, and even the sword between the two of them was stained with a few wisps of blood.
