"Do fathers have any commands when they call their sons?" You said.

"Jinglong, there is an important matter. You take a look at this first. ”

You look at the paperwork you took from your father. You say, "King Han, you want to summon me?" ”

"Yes." The father said, "You have been back for a few days, and you have reached the age when you go to the city to meet the king of Han as usual, and you can't always be idle at home like this." I have long planned that if the weather is better, I will choose an auspicious day to take you to the city to meet the new king, and I don't want the edict of the king of Han to arrive first. The birthday of the Queen Mother is approaching, and the King of Han summoned the children of the young families in the frontier fiefdom this time to encourage the award, which is also to add some auspiciousness to the birthday of the Queen Mother, so that the Queen Mother can see that the younger generation of this dynasty has many talents, and the successors of the old Han King's team are gratifying. ”

You look down at the paperwork again. Father looks at you. Your expression doesn't change. You say, "When is Father going to go?" The father said, "I have found someone to see the day, and it will be the day after tomorrow." You clean up tomorrow. Fortunately, the court clothes for the audience were prepared early in the morning. When the king of Han summons him, he will inevitably ask some questions about the government and military affairs, especially the war in northern Xinjiang. You need to be prepared. You say, "Yes." ”

Father looks at you. He said, "What? After reading the edict, were you indifferent? The first pilgrimage is a supreme honor for every disciple of the family and the starting point of a lifetime of official career. Many children will be so excited that they can't sleep at night. Why aren't you enthusiastic at all? ”

You bow your head and reply, "My son is not unenthusiastic. ”

The father asked, "Jinglong, do you have something on your mind?" Is there anything that makes you reluctant to go to the city? ”

Roll up the edict in your hand and give it back to your father. You say, "No." The son was afraid that the answer in front of the palace would not be appropriate, and he would not be favored by the new king, which would disappoint his father. ”

Father laughs and pats you on the shoulder. The father said, "So you were worried about this. The new king is indeed still young, and he is a new heir, and he is not as experienced as the previous king in state affairs. However, the road knows the horsepower and sees the hearts of the people over time. Even if you go to Dongcheng this time, the King of Han is not kind to you, and it doesn't matter. Father has faith in you. Whether it is political affairs or military affairs, my father absolutely believes that you will one day impress King Han. ”

You say, "Thank you for your encouragement." ”

Father pats you on the shoulder again. He said: "The first time I entered the court to meet the temple, it was inevitable to be a little nervous. You can relax a little, though. With the status of our family and your mother's mother's family, no matter how much you are not favored, King Han will not embarrass you in any way. ”

You say, "Yes." ”

The father said, "By the way, you bring that Wu Shun with you." I don't think he's old, but he's very alert and loyal, and if you take him with you, everything will be more convenient and you can take care of him more thoroughly. ”

Say, "The son thanked his father on his behalf." He'd never been to a bigger place than Zhuangzhen. ”

The father said, "But you must restrain him, for in the capital there must be rules in everything than at home, and you must not be as unrestrained as at home." ”

You say, "Yes." Father. Actually, Junko is at home, and he is not unruly, but we have been together in Qingchuan for many years, known as master and servant, like brothers, and sometimes it may be ......."

The father said, "Well, you don't have to explain, and my father doesn't blame you." My father is very pleased that you have such a wonderful child with you. You have to treat him well, and you have to take him with you for more experience. Life in the world, good companions are rare, you will go out to do things in the future, and you will inevitably need a caring and knowledgeable person to help you. ”

Say, "Yes, my son will teach him a lot." ”

Father looks at you with satisfaction. He said, "Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, you have grown up and are ready to serve your country. Your mother, if she can see today, under the Nine Springs, she will definitely feel gratified. Go to the second church and pray before your mother's spirit. This time I have to go for some days, and for the time being, I can't go to her spirit every day to worship. ”

You nodded: "My son will receive the order, so I will go to the second hall to report." ”

You take your leave and turn to go out. When you were about to walk to the door, your father called you again: "Jinglong." ”

Say, "Is there anything else that Father wants to command?" ”

Father said, "Well, what your master sent someone to tell you a few days ago, you must keep in mind along the way, no matter whether you have been ordained an official position after this visit, whether you will continue to stay at home, stay in our fiefdom, and persevere in your daily cultural and martial arts classes, and not waste them for anything." Even during the period in the capital, you should not wander freely and be lustful. Also, the elixir that your master sent all the way must also be carried. The secret techniques of the Qingliu Sect are almost all passed down through the ages, and once you have learned them, you must practice them until they are perfect, so that they can exert their greatest effect and carry them forward, and you must not disappoint your master's meticulous teaching and the hard work of your senior brothers. ”

You say, "Yes, Father." Master's instructions, the son will keep in mind that no matter what, the homework will not be lost, and the elixir to help the gong will also be carried with him. ”

Father looks at you and doesn't speak for a moment.

You say, "Father? ”

The father came to his senses and said, "Okay, it's all right, you can go." I'm going out soon, so for the past two days, go to bed early and rest well. ”

You say, "Yes." ”

Watch your back disappear out the door. The father turned his head and instructed the housekeeper, "I'm about to go out, let Dr. Sun prepare some regular medicines that can be used on the journey." He came, let him come to me. ”

Father and Dr. Sun sat opposite each other and drank tea.

Dr. Sun said: "Is Guogong still a little worried? ”

The father said, "Yes." Although everything is normal, but in my heart, I don't know why, I am still a little apprehensive, and I can't be completely calm. ”

Dr. Sun said: "The prince and his wife have a deep affection, and this matter has always been in his heart, and he can't forget it, which is also human nature. ”

The father was silent.

Dr. Sun said: "If Guogong is really not at ease, Sun will go to Dongcheng with him." ”

The father shook his head and said, "No." It's all too obvious. Again and again, again and again, he will be suspicious, but it is not good. ”

The father said, "Well, in any case, it's always right to be prepared." You have prepared something for me that I can use and can use in an emergency, so that I will not be caught off guard if I have any chances. ”

Doctor Sun said: "After hearing about the edict, Sun has already prepared it, and besides, there is still Master Daoji's pill in front of him." However, please relax, the young son's situation is very good, and these must not be needed. ”

The father said, "I wish so." There is Mr. Law. ”

The father said, "If the new king has been awarded this time, he will embark on the road to becoming a prince, and maybe he will be sent to the battlefield." Although it is wrong to think so, in my heart, I still sometimes feel that it would be good if the new king did not pay much attention to him, and let him stay by my side for a few more years, and live a few more comfortable days. ”

Dr. Sun said: "Fathers will have such thoughts. However, Sun Mou saw that the young son's mental pattern was very remarkable, among the children of the Lingnan families, he stood out from the crowd, outstanding and extraordinary, and over time, full of wings, he must be a person who does great things, and he will be able to shine on the lintel, and the future is limitless. When the storm meets, the national prince can't give up, and he has to give up. ”

The father said, "Yes." Everybody has everybody's life. It is useless to think about all kinds of contradictions. Don't think much about it. Things work themselves out. I believe that God's arrangement will always be the best. Let's do our best and obey the destiny of heaven. ”
