Chapter 43: Master and Apprentice

Ah, daddy, daddy, what are you doing, this is selling us again?

Hongqing originally thought in his heart that Chen Menglei came here to collect apprentices, and he had already calculated a few calculations in his heart, ready to throw them out one by one, if he could push it, if he couldn't push it, then he would hang it unceremoniously on his father, in a word, this division, Hongqing didn't plan to worship, the problem was that the plan obviously couldn't catch up with the changes, the third master left so unrighteously, Hongqing's little calculation suddenly collapsed for half a day, and there was nowhere to borrow his strength, he was really annoyed in his heart, but his father wanted to leave, and he was helpless, I could only pretend not to care, and stood in place with a light smile.

"Pour tea!"

No matter how bright Hongqing's smile was, Chen Menglei didn't seem to see it, and he didn't speak, just squinted his eyes, and the old monk sat still, this sitting was nearly half an hour, until Hongqing stood numb in his legs, then he stretched out his hand, pointed to the half-empty tea bowl in front of him, and commanded concisely.

What? Tea? Yes, you can toss all the time, let's go on!

After a silent confrontation for most of the hour, although the smile on his face was a little stiff, Hongqing didn't care, and had already calculated the countermeasure in his heart, that is, the strategy of not resisting and not cooperating-no matter what Chen Menglei said, he listened to it all, but if he really talked about apprenticeship, then he didn't do it, it was a big deal to play a trick and run away from the old master, even if he would be ruthlessly cut by his own father for this, he would not hesitate to do it, but he didn't expect the old master to be silent for most of the day, and he actually made such a move, Hongqing really couldn't react for a while, and he didn't obey the order, but after thinking about it, the basic respect for the old man is still needed, and the left and right are just pouring a bowl of tea, and it's really not a big deal.

"Pour on!"

The teabowl is not big, there is still half of the water left inside, the volume is not large, Hongqing picked up the teapot and poured it, and the water was already flush with the mouth of the bowl, but he didn't wait for Hongqing to put the teapot down, but he heard Chen Menglei command in a deep voice.

Still poured? What the hell!

Being shouted by Chen Menglei like this, Hongqing's hand couldn't help but tremble, and after being stunned, he raised his head, looked at Chen Menglei carefully, and saw that his eyes were blazing, not like he was joking, although he couldn't help muttering in his heart, but his hand didn't stop, according to the words, he poured tea into the bowl that was already full, needless to say, the tea overflowed, flowing along the ground, and the neat ground instantly **** a piece of the boss, like a scar on the bald head.

"What did the little prince see?"

After all, the water in the teapot is limited, and without counting the breaths, it has been poured quickly and thoroughly, and before Hongqing can say anything, Chen Menglei is long beard on his chest is already brushed up, and he asked a rather strange sentence lightly.

Well? This old man, what kind of sharp edge is he playing?

Hongqing was already a little impatient with Chen Menglei, if it weren't for this old man being his father's master, Hongqing really wanted to give him a little color to see, of course, he was annoyed in his heart, as far as Hongqing's city government was concerned, he didn't bring anger to his face, he just raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in a flat tone: "What Mr. said is the water overflowing?" ”

"Go on."

Chen Menglei did not comment on Hongqing's answer, but spoke noncommittally.

"Too much?"

"Go on."

"Is there room for greatness?"

"Go on."

"The water carries the boat, and the water capsitizes the boat."

"Go on."

"Good as water?"

"Go on."

……

"What did the Master see again?"

changed more than a dozen answers in a row, and his mouth was almost dry, in exchange for the word "continue" that Old Master Chen was not salty or light, Hongqing was really a little angry, so he retorted angrily.

"The old man saw a dumbfounded melon and poured the tea on the ground."

Hongqing was in a hurry, but Old Master Chen was not in a hurry at all, he reached out and stroked the long beard on his chest, and replied slowly.

“……”

As soon as Old Master Chen said this, Hongqing was dumbfounded, and he really didn't know what to say for a while.

"Hahaha......"

Looking at Hongqing's stunned appearance, Old Master Chen laughed very unscrupulously, laughing so much that Hongqing's face was red, and at the same time, he felt that he was really stupid and cute, and he was actually picked up and played by the old master, shook his head helplessly, and laughed along.

"The little prince is so bold that he dares to speculate on the holy will, isn't he afraid of disaster for your father?"

Hongqing was laughing heartily, but Old Master Chen suddenly stopped laughing, his face was blank, and his expression was solemn.

"Ga ......"

At first hearing Siyan, Hongqing's little body couldn't help but tremble, and the laughter immediately stopped.

What's going on? Could it be that Li Minquan sold Lao Tzu? Unlikely! Although that guy's character is average, but his courage is still not small, besides, if he wants to keep his status in the palace, he has no reason to self-destruct the Great Wall, hey, dare to love this old master is cheating us.

What does the Master mean? Forgive the boy for being ignorant, he is really at a loss, and ask the master for guidance. ”

Hongqing is not an ordinary person in the end, just a little thought, he has already understood, he refuses to admit it, so he makes a group of dazed and unaware of the so-called spread of his hands, a beautiful Tai Chi pusher, and he has already kicked the problem back to the feet of Old Master Chen again without leaving his hands.

"Little Wangye, do you want to say that all the plans since this period of time have come from Li Minquan's handwriting?"

Old Master Chen is obviously not so easy to deceive, no matter how innocent and innocent Hongqing looks, but Old Master Chen was unmoved, the corners of his mouth were raised, and he laughed sarcastically, mercilessly pointing out Hongqing's prevarication.

"Isn't there something wrong with this ......?"

Since it was determined that the old master was cheating, Hongqing naturally refused to admit it, blinked his big eyes, and replied very innocently.

"Isn't that right? That's right, a person who is not even good at "Zhou Yi", how can he know the way of the emperor, as for Meng, Liang, and Chen, they are just sour Confucians, with the name of famous people, but there is no reality, and the third master of your family, seems to be shrewd, but in fact he is ignorant, resourceful and indecisive, let it go, maybe he can make a difference, but in today's dynasty, but he is just a generation, how can he repeatedly hit the sacred heart, can the little prince have any explanation for this, huh? ”

Seeing Hongqing pretending to be stupid there, Old Master Chen immediately smiled contemptuously, pointed his fingers, and commented on all the people in the Chengjun Palace, and there was no mercy in his words, although he did not name him, he had clearly pointed out that the root of the recent series of abnormal performances of the Chengjun Palace's Mansion was on Hongqing's body.

I'll take it, this old demon is really not covered, this can be guessed, dare to love Li Minquan's embarrassment before, but he was confused by this old man, dizzy, this time it's a big trouble!

Listening to Old Master Chen's narration, although Hongqing could still stand firmly on the spot, his back was already covered with cold sweat, not for anything else, just because at such a time, Hongqing didn't know what to defend himself, there was no way, Old Master Chen knew too much about the ability of the upper-class people in Chengjun Wang, so much so that Hongqing couldn't find anyone to push it, besides, this matter really can't be explained, the more you describe it, the darker it will be, in view of this, Hongqing simply closed her mouth and came to silence.

"It's too much, I think the little prince knows it, but why don't you practice it?"

Old Master Chen didn't pay attention to Hongqing's silence at all, and his words suddenly changed, throwing out a question that Hongqing was a little unexpected.

"Huh? The Master's meaning is ......"

Hongqing was stunned for a while, but she couldn't figure out what Old Master Chen was referring to, and she had to break the silence and tentatively ask half of the words.

"On the occasion of the early dynasty a while ago, did the little prince encourage the third master to come forward to support the prince?"

Old Master Chen didn't sell it this time, and pointed out the problem directly.

"What's wrong with this?"

As soon as he heard Old Master Chen point out this matter, Hongqing knew that his own plans had been expected by Old Master Chen, so he didn't want to lie anymore, but cautiously bowed to Old Master Chen and humbly asked for advice.

"It's too much, as the saying goes, 'the sacred heart is unfathomable', and the mystery lies in the word 'difficult', hey, why doesn't the fourth master know where the sacred heart is, but why is it immovable? Fortunately, the third master had a lot of scruples and didn't dare to do it, otherwise, the little prince would think about it himself. ”

Old Master Chen glanced at Hongqing with a little dissatisfaction, and briefly mentioned the original situation.

It's dangerous!

Old Master Chen didn't say it, Hongqing really didn't realize the seriousness of the problem, and when he thought about it carefully, the cold sweat flowed down wildly, the truth? It's very simple, as long as you know how Yang Xiu died, you can understand how harmful it is to guess the Sacred Heart, but fortunately, the third master finally coaxed, and the old man gave Hongqing the opportunity to fully perform, which can be regarded as turning a bad thing into a good thing.

"Thank you Master for mentioning it, the boy knows his mistakes, if he can get the master's teachings, it will be a great blessing for the students, the master is above, please accept the disciple's worship."

Hongqing's other abilities are not easy to say, but he is still very good at seeing people, so after talking like this a few times, how can he not know that Chen Menglei's ability is definitely the great wisdom of today, how can he miss it, you must know that what he lacks most now is talent, and to be assisted by a person like Chen Menglei, it is a good thing that you can't ask for, so he knelt on the ground and respectfully performed a disciple's salute.

"The stiff and lonely village does not mourn itself, and Shang Si is the national military wheel. Lying down at night and listening to the wind and rain, the iron horse and the glacier fell into a dream. ”

In the face of Hongqing's apprenticeship ceremony, Old Master Chen did not express his position directly, but muttered the poem "The Wind and Rain on the Fourth of November" by Shou Lu You, and there were faint tears flickering in his slightly closed eyes......
