Chapter Forty-Seven: A Visit to Uncle Tai's Mansion
"Daddy doesn't know, there must be some reason for this. Our ancestors have always acted like this, mysteriously."
At this time, Ouyang Xuanyi walked down from the stage and walked back and forth among the veterans to talk, asking about the number of the army he belonged to, his age and place of origin, and so on. When he walked in front of the mayor, the mayor immediately bowed his hand and said, "The pavilion chief of Caomin Heyang Town, I have seen the Holy Emperor." "You are the true parent of the people, but what is happening today is caused by you?" It was the grass people who did it at the request of the veterans."
"Well, yes, very good! Being able to petition for the people shows the heart of sincerity."
"Back to Your Majesty, the grass people never thought of meeting Your Majesty. The grass people also served in the military and were also admirers of His Majesty. Being able to petition for veterans is also the meaning of the grass people. His Majesty's words, the grass people are very ashamed."
"Haha, by mistake, if you can tell you honestly and without losing your faith, what is your position in the army?"
"Back to Your Majesty, the grass people once had a long time with the Yanmen Pass defense artillery, and later changed to the Sanshui Pass City Gate Clearance Guard."
"Okay, I like the straightforwardness of a soldier", after speaking, he patted the mayor on the shoulder, took out a crystal blue waist from his body, handed it to the mayor and said: "This is what I have carried with me for many years, and I will reward you." "Thank you for the favor of His Majesty the Holy Emperor". This jade pendant is a special crystal gem that Ouyang Xuan found on an asteroid in the asteroid belt and polished it into accessories. The descendants of the mayor of the town have been passing on this waist pendant for 2,000 years, and later when the country was founded for 2,000 years, this waist pendant was dedicated to the country, which caused a sensation in the world.
Ouyang Xuan shuttled through the crowd and talked happily with these veterans. The guards were ordered to go down to the town under the leadership of the mayor and buy a hundred jars of wine and a thousand wine bowls. The guards poured wine for each veteran, and on the stage, he raised the wine bowl and said loudly: "Brothers, for the sake of our common years, drink this cup full?" Dry! ”。 The veterans in the audience and the mayor raised their bowls together and shouted, "! The loud voice resounded throughout the town, and the residents poked their heads out to look at the barracks, wondering what was going on.
The veterans' wishes were satisfied, and they brought this satisfaction home, and Ouyang Xuan's meeting with the veterans in this town quickly spread in Huaxia, and the town was named Bingjin Town. A temple was built in the place where Ouyang Xuan received the veterans, called: Soldier Shrine, which stood here for more than 2,000 years, and was a place of scenic spot and historic site, and also a place for soldiers to go out on the battlefield and soldiers to change careers. Ouyang Xuan's duties regarding generals and soldiers are inscribed on the monument and have been passed down for thousands of years.
In the afternoon, Ouyang Xuan followed the brigade through the small villages and towns where he used to live, and made a special stop to visit the veteran's home. The veteran has been dead for more than 30 years, and listening to his grandson, the old man is smiling Jiuquan. Ouyang Xuan left a plaque before continuing to follow the team and continue to march towards the capital.
Ouyang Xuan did not go back to the palace directly, but after entering the city gate, he left the team in civilian clothes with five guards and blended into the bustling market of the capital. When the team arrived at the palace, everyone found that the Emperor Taishang was gone, and when the news was reported to Ouyang Dan, Ouyang Dan could only smile bitterly. He said to the officials of the Ministry of Rites: "Don't look for it, my ancestors have always acted without rules and regulations. Let him go, he has to go out on patrol every year, not to mention that this time he is returning with his daughter, and the dinner will go on as usual, I think my ancestors will still not refute my face." "No!".
Ouyang Xuan came out of the queue and walked leisurely on the busy streets, enjoying the feeling of prosperity. Now the city has undergone more than 30 expansions, and now it is a city of 5 million people, nearly 50 miles long from north to south and 40 miles from east to west. The city wall has been demolished and demolished, and now it is facing demolition again. Trolleybuses run from the city's main streets, and the metro network has now been built with the help of the Duliba people and is being put to work on electricity, reducing pollution and noise. Ouyang Xuan came back this time and had another task, which was to participate in the ceremony of the opening of the subway. Nowadays, subways are being built in five major cities in China, and the capital Xiagu is the first city to be opened to traffic, so naturally Ouyang Xuan attaches great importance to it.
Walking slowly on the street, Ouyang Xuan felt as if he had returned to the afterlife, and there were actually light plaques and street lamps here. It's just that the people patrolling the streets are not the police of later generations, but the Gyeonggi Garrison Division of the current headquarters army.
Walking to an intersection, Ouyang Xuan habitually looked left and right, and inadvertently saw Tai Shuxuan, who was waving to him across the street, still in that unique way of beckoning. Ouyang Xuan smiled slightly, and also replied for a moment before stepping onto the overpass. walked up to Uncle Tai Xuan and said, "Didn't the girl go back to her brother's mansion, why are you here?" ”。“ Alas, don't mention it, since I came home, my brother hasn't stopped nagging, and he locked Xuan'er in the house."
"Your brother never thought that you would escape, haha. Let's take a look at the house, and I'll meet your brother."
"Oh no, I was going to the palace to look for you just now, but I didn't expect to meet you here. My sister-in-law is coming back soon, if she sees you, she won't be scared to death? ”。
"Am I that scary? Besides, your sister-in-law doesn't know me. Lead the way, I will meet you, brother. In addition, the palace is not allowed to break in, it is not a certain line, my palace is heavily guarded, and the feather forest guards there do not recognize you, and the slightest carelessness will kill you."
"Hehe, how do you know everything. Is there anything you don't know? ”。
After speaking, Uncle Tai Xuan pulled Ouyang Xuan to the southwest, in the direction of Huaxia University. As he walked, he said: "Don't embarrass my brother, he is a good person, but he is a bit of a bull, and he fiddles with those bottles and cans with his sister-in-law every day, and writes and calculates every day." There is no last resort, I can't tell your true identity, I'm afraid that my sister-in-law will be embarrassed. If you can restore your sister-in-law's status as a princess, you can also consider it."
Ouyang Xuan stretched out his hand and scratched the tip of his nose and said, "One day is weird, haha, it's all up to you." In the evening, I will go to the palace for a banquet with me."
"No, Xuan'er is nameless and pointless, and my sister-in-law is the eldest princess of the current emperor, so I don't dare to touch this mold."
"Haha, I'm not afraid, why are you afraid to come? Everything is in my hands, you can rest assured."
"Well, everything is up to you, whoever makes you is a hundred calls, and the soldiers regard you as holy."
They are all experts, chatting and walking, naturally forgetting to control the speed, less than a quarter of an hour, they came to a courtyard outside Huaxia University, this area is full of blue bricks and green tiles of Han-style buildings. Ouyang Xuan was just about to ask the guards to knock on the door, but Uncle Tai Xuan immediately stopped: "It's not good, after all, Xuan'er escaped from the locked room, if you let my brother know, it will be a bit of a loss of face." Wait a minute, Xuan'er will go back to the room first." After saying that, he turned around, walked along the wall to a tree against the wall, and with his feet forced, he jumped back and forth between the wall and the tree in an instant, and jumped up the wall in the blink of an eye, and jumped down. The guard next to him said after reading it: "Lord, this uncle and girl's jumping technique can be described as superb, and with a little bit of strength, no one in the Yulin Army can match it." "Well, this is a light skill, and it is also a light body skill realized in juggling, after some time, I ask the uncle and girl to hand it over to everyone, don't worry. Go to the door first". "No!"
With that, the guard walked to the door and tapped on the knocker. "Is Mr. Uncle at home?". After a while, the door creaked open, and a young man in his twenties came out of the inside, with thick eyebrows and a square face, a strong body, dressed in a cyan linen Hanfu, and a wisp of green beard floating under his chin. Ouyang Xuan took a step forward and bowed his hand: "Sir, but is it an uncle?" ”。“ Exactly, I don't know who the son is? What's the matter with Yuan? ”。
"In the next is Ling Meixuan's distant friend, passing through the capital today, I came to visit the house."
"Oh, Childe, please", Tai Shuyuan made a gesture of please, and after entering the courtyard, Tai Shuyuan led Ouyang Xuan to the living room, and said: "Little sister just arrived at noon today, and Childe is coming to visit, isn't it going back to Beijing with Childe?" ”。
"Haha, what Mr. said is exactly what he said, and he and his uncle and girl entered Beijing from Muzhou together. After finishing the affairs in Beijing, I came to the house to pay a respect."
"Alas, the little sister is very naughty, if you offend the son, please Haihan."
"Where, a certain and Ling Mei are quite close to each other, they are both perennial martial arts practitioners, so they will take care of it."
"Alas, what kind of system does a woman become when she fights and kills all year round. Nowadays, the country and the people are safe, and if the practice of martial arts is not in the army, it is most likely to violate the ban. I really don't know why the immortal master taught my little sister the martial arts."
"Haha, Mr. said it, Wu can defend himself, he can also protect his family and defend the country, although the neighborhood is peaceful now, but the hidden dangers are still there."
"What Childe said is also wrong, now with Huaxia's things, you can kill the enemy without hand-to-hand combat. It's just that I don't know that the actual people in charge of the army in China don't use firearms, but still use knives and guns. Oh, it's too much, son, please wait a minute, so-and-so go and invite the little sister." After speaking, he turned around and walked out of the living room, leaving Ouyang Xuan alone to sit in the living room. This living room is also very literati-style, surrounded by landscape and animal paintings modeled after Ouyang Xuan's painting style, as well as some exquisite glass and ceramic crafts. Ouyang Xuan was not very interested in ceramics and glass products, but was quite interested in the many paintings hanging on the wall, which had to be said to be very exquisite, and some of them could be called superb. One of the ink-splashed landscape paintings of "Ancient Wind and Mountain Scenery" is much higher than Ouyang Xuan's painting skills, the ink color is uniform, the color difference is almost perfect, and the inscription next to it reads Ouyang Shiqian. "Good painting, excellent work". Ouyang Xuan couldn't help but say.
"That's nature, it's not just you who can draw, there are a lot of people." Uncle Tai Xuan didn't know when he had already appeared behind Ouyang Xuan, and he also looked at the painting with his hands behind his back. "Haha, this is natural, the strong have their own strong players, and there are capable people behind the capable people", Ouyang Xuan didn't reply.
"Xuan'er, don't be rude. Childe, please sit down", Tai Shuyuan stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please. Ouyang Xuan turned around and sat down with Tai Shu Yuan, who sat down in the main seat.
"Since Childe entered the door, I haven't asked Childe's surname, it's really rude."
"Haha, the same surname Ouyang is the same as the current royal family, with a single name and a Xuan character." When Ouyang Xuan finished speaking, Taishu Xuan winked at Ouyang Xuan, Tai Shuyuan just smiled slightly, and said: "The name of the prince is the same as that of the Taishang Holy Emperor, fortunately it is not the land of Han, otherwise there will be a worry about his life."
"Haha, exactly".
"I don't know what Childe does?"
"I am engaged in some trade and refreshments. Earn a little bit of subsistence."
"Nowadays, China is not like the Han land, and commerce is very prosperous, and it is a wise choice for Gongzi to invest in it."
"Oh? Why? ”
"Nowadays, China has a large population, and the close proximity to self-sufficient farms can no longer meet the needs of the Chinese people. The way of logistics is the right way".
"Haha, I never thought that Brother Tai had such a high opinion, and I really didn't hear Uncle Tai talk about it."
"Ouyang Gongzi is of the same clan as the royal family, I don't know where his hometown is? Who is the ancestor? ”。
"In the lower long residence in Muzhou, Secheng. The ancestors did not know the following, and they were orphans since childhood. Raised by a family teacher, given the surname Ouyang, named Xuan".
"Oh, the Venerable Master is not afraid of taboos. I don't know if Gongzi can learn anything from him in addition to martial arts? ”
"I really don't know how to answer the question that Mr. asked. I learned a lot of things, and I didn't know where to start for a while."
Uncle Tai Xuan kept glancing at Ouyang Xuan, looking at her anxious look, Ouyang Xuan only smiled slightly, and said, "I don't know what Mr. taught and learned?" ”。
"I teach chemistry with Huaxia University, I don't know if Childe can get involved?".
"I know, I heard that this chemistry was created by the Emperor?"
"Exactly, this school is very knowledgeable, and a certain only knows a thing or two."
Uncle Tai Xuan snorted and laughed, causing Uncle Tai Yuan to glare at him. At this moment, a woman's voice came from outside: "Husband, can you be?" ”。
Tai Shuyuan glared at Tai Shuxuan, turned to Ouyang Xuan and said, "A certain insider doesn't know that the son is like this again, don't be surprised." got up and walked to the door and said, "Why did you come back so late?" Have you ever seen the Holy Emperor? ”。“ Alas, don't mention it, I wanted to see you in the palace. I never thought that my ancestors would go out on patrol halfway, don't say I, even my father and emperor have not seen me. When I first entered the door, I saw a waiter outside, could it be that a distinguished guest came to visit? ”。
"Well, it's a son that Xuan'er met on the way back." Tai Shuyuan looked back at Ouyang Xuan and said to the woman outside the door.
"This girl, I seem to have seen her at the ceremony yesterday, and I don't know if it's her." Before the words could be spoken, a woman in a yellow shirt entered the hall. There was some resemblance between the eyebrows and Ouyang Xuan, and the moment he saw Ouyang Xuan, he was immediately stunned on the spot. After losing his mind for a moment, he bowed to Ouyang Xuan and said, "Junior Qian'er has seen the ancestor!" ”。
"Haha, let's be flat, you never thought of seeing me here, did you?"
"Back to the ancestors, Qian'er really didn't dare to think about it", Ouyang Qian got up and stood on Ouyang Xuan's right hand and said. When Uncle Tai saw his wife's bow, everything was understood. He saw it again: "Uncle Caomin has seen His Majesty the Holy Emperor. It's just that His Majesty has come to visit, and the grass people are very frightened."
"Flat, sit down. Even if I know everything, I don't have to pretend to be a micro-service." Turning his head to Ouyang Qian, who was standing, he said, "Has your father explained the matter of tonight's banquet?" ”。
"Back to the ancestors, the father did not talk to Qian'er, and the queen mother only told Qian'er about this."
"Tell me the story of you and Mr. Taishu, I am very curious. Xuan'er doesn't know what she said, but I still have to listen to you personally, so that I can make decisions for you."
"Back to His Majesty the Holy Emperor, the matter of the grass people, don't bother your father and the Holy Emperor. Now, many years have passed, and Akane and I have long since adapted to this kind of idle cloud and wild crane teaching years."
"It's okay, tell me the truth, I will make decisions for you."
"Alas!" Ouyang Qian let out a long sigh and looked out the window, there seemed to be tears in her eyes, and then she slowly told her and Tai Shuyuan about the past.
