Chapter 246: The Old Man's Guidance
After the lunch break, Bai Qing, under the escort of Hua Rong, took the gift and headed in the direction of the Taifu Mansion.
After a short break at noon and a simple rest, Bai Qing at this time had recovered from the dust and dust along the way, took off his heavy armor, and changed into a brand new clothes, and the whole person also looked dignified.
However, on the way to the Tangtai Mansion, Bai Qing's mind kept coming to mind, when the senior sister heard what he said, the look of a red face, and finally ran away in shame, as soon as he thought of this, Bai Qing couldn't help grinning and let out a silent smile.
The long-cherished wish for many years is finally going to be fulfilled today, how can Bai Qing be unhappy? At this time, he had a feeling of excitement.
Hua Rong on the side looked at Bai Qing who was grinning a little strangely, he was a little unsure why, this brother of his own, what good things happened today, which made him so happy, of course, even if he wanted to break his head, he would not have thought that it was related to women.
In this way, I came to the Tantai Mansion all the way, and after knocking on the door of the mansion, the door came out, saw Bai Qing's face clearly, and hurriedly bowed to Bai Qing: "See my uncle, if I go back to my uncle, the old man has been waiting for a long time, and he is in his study. ”
"Father-in-law can be in the house at this time?" Bai Qing asked as he walked and looked at the manzi.
"If you go back to your uncle, the husband is still on duty now, so he hasn't returned home!" The man said respectfully to Bai Qing.
Bai Qing nodded. went straight to the old man's study, and Hua Rong. Someone went to guide him to the antechamber and rested for a while.
Coming to the door of the old man's study, Bai Qing first knocked on the door respectfully. Then I heard an old but neutral voice from inside: "Come in!" ”
Bai Qing pushed open the door, then walked in, and immediately saw the old man sitting upright behind the bookcase, where he was holding a brush and writing something on the paper.
After a few months, but the old man still looked energetic, standing there just not moving, there was a momentum of not being angry and arrogant inside.
Seeing this, Bai Qing naturally didn't dare to disturb. He stood respectfully aside, silently watching the old man practice calligraphy there, and the old man put all his energy on the rice paper in front of him at this time, and naturally did not speak, in the room, except for the rustle of the tip of the pen and the rice paper, there was silence.
Strange to say, although this Tantai family has been a military general for generations. But it seems that there is an almost paranoid love for this calligraphy, the old man is like this, and his father-in-law is like this. Even the dragon dance is like this.
After a while, the old man stopped what he was doing, and then hung the pen on the pen holder. Slowly straightened up, pointing to the chair in front of the bookcase. said to Bai Qing: "Sit down!" ”
After Bai Qing answered, he first waited for the old man to sit down. Then he sat in front of the old man, looking respectfully waiting for the teaching.
"At noon, I heard about you from the moon girl, and I knew that you were back, what, is it a triumph now?" The old man looked at Bai Qing with a smile on his face.
Although the old man had a smile on his face, Bai Qing didn't dare to make any presumptuous moves, besides, Bai Qing still has self-knowledge, and if he puts this little bit of work on the old man, I'm afraid it won't be enough to see.
"Well, Liangshan's side has been completely pacified, those who should be killed are killed, those who should be surrendered, and the rest depends on what the officials plan to do!" Bai Qing nodded at the old man, said seriously, paused, as if he had thought of something, Bai Qing hurriedly brought something in the tense and put it on the table in front of him, with a smile on his face: "This is what I brought back to you and your father-in-law from Shandong, and it can be regarded as my grandson-in-law's filial piety to your old man!" ”
On the table, there are four jars, which are sealed with yellow mud, and there is a red paper pasted in the middle of the altar body, and there are three big characters of "Lanling Spring" written on it.
"Oh? This is the Lanling Chun you made up in that Cangshan County? Recently, his reputation has been quite famous, and even I have heard of the old man! The old man looked at the jar of wine on the table, his face showed a little interest, and as he spoke, he opened the mud seal on the jar, and suddenly, a pungent aroma of wine spread throughout the study.
"Well, good wine!" The old man's eyes lit up, and his eyes flashed with a little surprise when he looked at the wine jar.
Seeing the old man's almost drunken eyes, Bai Qing's eyes couldn't help but show a little funny, but he still said to the old man: "Grandfather, this wine is extremely strong, when you drink it, you must be leisurely, otherwise, Xiao Wu will not be able to spare me!" ”
"You, you! A dignified seven-foot man, how can he be afraid of a woman! Hearing Bai Qing's words, the old man shook his head and said to Bai Qing, Bai Qing was stunned for a while, old man, the woman in your mouth is your own granddaughter, do you arrange your granddaughter like this!
"But then again, you're in the Shandong realm this time, and it's not bad!" The old man also regained his serious look at this time, and said to Bai Qing, with a look of admiration in his tone: "Although he is still a little immature in terms of power, but in this kind of bottom-level battle, and at your age, it can be called excellent, and this move of Liangshan to quell the rebellion, you are really not bad!" ”
"Grandfather praised it falsely, the kid is just doing his best and doing his best!" Hearing the old man's praise for himself, although Bai Qing's heart was also very happy, he still tried to maintain a modest look on his face and said to the old man.
"I just don't know what you're going to do next?" The old man stroked his beard and said to Bai Qing.
"This is also what the kid is hesitating about now, the reason why I came here, in addition to visiting you, I also want to ask my grandfather for advice!" Bai Qing stood up and bowed to the old man and said.
"Before, the kid just wanted to come, this is on the battlefield, it should be the best and fastest way to be promoted, so the kid led the army to participate in the encirclement and suppression of Liangshan by Zhang Xianggong this time, but now after the real pacification of Liangshan, the kid found that now the team in the kid's hand has become a hot potato, on the one hand, the kid really can't bear to give up, after all, this is the kid single-handedly trained out, but if the kid wants to catch him in his hands, and I'm afraid to arouse suspicion, after all, I have a Xiao Wu in the Tai family, there is already a Qilin Guard, if the kid has such a team in his hands, I am afraid that the official family will not be able to sleep well at night! Bai Qing continued to the old man, with a somewhat stern look on his face, at this time, there were only two people in the room, he and Yutai Yuanye, as the grandfather of his own mother, after all, they were all his own family, and there were some words that he didn't need to hide.
The old man nodded, continued to twist his beard, and said to Bai Qing: "At your age, it is already commendable to be able to see this, since you have realized it, I think you also have the answer in your heart, don't you!" ”
Hearing the words of the old man in Tantai, Bai Qing's face also showed a little wry smile: "Yes, but although I have already made a decision, after all, I brought it out by myself, no matter what, I am not willing!" ”
"Willing, willing, giving can have gain, above this court, even more so, in this world, there is nothing good that belongs to one person, sometimes, if you want to get something, you first have to think about what you can give, the so-called people want to take it, must first give it is this truth!" The old man looked at Bai Qing and said lightly.
Bai Qing was silent for a moment before he showed an emotional expression to the old man, bowed down and said: "The more I climb, the more I feel that my foundation is too weak, and there is always a feeling of being unstable!" ”
"The so-called high place is not cold, this is the truth, I'm okay, now there is nothing to worry about, just like your father-in-law, although it seems to be a high position and unlimited scenery to outsiders, but I also came from that time, this daily cautious mood of walking on thin ice is really not enough for outsiders, and your speed is too fast, and it is normal for the foundation to be unstable, even that Cangshan has not had time to manage it well, it has reached such a point, it is indeed a success and Xiao He defeat!" The old man shook his head, looked at Bai Qing and said.
"I wonder what the kid is going to do next? I hope my grandfather will give me more advice! Bai Qing looked at the old man sincerely and said.
"Now that you have realized it yourself, then your team, you should let go first, but even if you let go, you have to hand it over to someone worthy of trust, even if you need to use it one day, it will not be overstretched, and when the official family summons you in a few days, you have to take the initiative to bring it up to show that you know the general situation, in this way, the official family will naturally feel guilty about you, and it is inevitable that there will be some thoughts of compensation. These people should be promoted, and they should be placed, so that you can be regarded as having your own team! You are still young, but you don't know that the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it? It's better to sit down in the last term first, lay a good foundation, this root is firmly rooted, and when you climb up, you can stand more steadily! The old man twisted his beard and said to Bai Qing.
Bai Qing chewed the old man's words repeatedly in his heart, and then bowed respectfully to the old man again, seeing that Bai Qing was so knowledgeable about current affairs, the old man showed a satisfied smile on his face, patted his shoulder, and finally added another sentence:
"By the way, when the war in Western Xinjiang calms down, let Xiao Wu live in peace for a few years, and when the time comes, you should hurry up and get a doll for the old man, lest the old man's idle body and bones are about to rust......"
