Hu Xiaotian said: "Dad, where are you going to let me go?" ”
Hu Buwei said: "Xichuan! ”
Hu Xiaotian still had an understanding of the geography and history of Dakang during this time, Xichuan is located in the southwest of Dakang, the geographical location is remote, bordering Miaojiang to the south and Shajia to the west. The geographical remoteness is secondary, and the biggest problem is that Xichuan is his future father-in-law's territory. His future father-in-law is Li Tianheng, the envoy of Jiannan Xichuan Jiedu. That is the feudal official of the dominant side, and the father wants to send him to Xichuan to be an official, which should be out of this consideration.
Hu Xiaotian blinked, stared at him Lao Tzu for a long time, and looked at Hu Buwei a little uncomfortable, and said in his heart that Lao Tzu didn't push you into the fire pit, it was not a hard work, I want you to stay away from the political storm, Lao Tzu wants to keep this lone seedling of our old Hu family.
Hu Xiaotian held back for a long time before he said, "Dare to love you, are you going to let me plug the door upside down?" ”
Hu Buwei shook his head and said, "Tian'er, as a father, there is only one son like you, do you think I will harm you?" ”
Hu Xiaotian secretly thought in his heart, maybe it is true that you are my father, but you are still a political family first, and political families like you are often indifferent to family and friendship, and you can sacrifice a qiē for the sake of political interests, if you really thought about me at the beginning, you would not let me marry the paralyzed daughter of the Li family. But he just muttered these words in his heart, and didn't pick them out.
Hu Buwei said: "The marriage contract is one thing, and being an official is another......" Speaking of this, he sighed and said: "The Li family already knows about you robbing Tang Wenzheng's daughter." ”
Hu Xiaotian was snickering in his heart, it was better to know, if the Li family couldn't get used to his evil deeds, it would be best to cancel the marriage contract.
Hu Buwei said: "Li Jiati postponed your marriage for two years, I thought about it and agreed." ”
Hu Xiaotian said: "Two years? Do they postpone it if they want to? Is there still our Hu family in your eyes? Dad, I don't think they took you seriously at all, so it's okay to retire from this family business. ”
Hu Buwei's face suddenly sank, and he snorted coldly. In fact, he has other plans in his heart, since he saw that the old emperor was still hesitant in the choice of succession, Hu Buwei began to hesitate in the depths of his heart, the winner is the king and the loser is the coward, and the cruelty of the prince's struggle for the throne He has witnessed it with his own eyes, if the crown prince Long Ye Qingshun inherits the unification, then the marriage between the Hu and Li families can be called perfect, but if there is a change in the middle of the way, Long Yeqing finally fails to ascend the throne, then he will face the fate of exile at least and being killed at worst. Li Tianheng, who is his staunch supporter, cannot guarantee that he will not be implicated. If things really go to the worst step, he may probably be seated because of Li Tianheng's in-laws. The Li family took the initiative to postpone the wedding for two years, but Hu was not in his arms, and the battle for the throne in two years will inevitably be settled. Even if the worst happens, Hu Buwei can still have enough opportunities to kill his relatives in righteousness and cancel this marriage contract. Hu Buwei knew that this future in-law was not an ordinary person, and the reason why he proposed to postpone the wedding should not only be because he heard about his son's evil deeds, but also because of some political considerations.
In fact, the marriage contract in Hu Buwei's eyes is nothing more than a paper document that is icing on the cake, and there is no actual binding significance, of course he can see that his son is showing resistance and dissatisfaction in the marriage, Hu Buwei can understand his son's feelings, but he thinks that his son is not mature enough, how can a manly man have no wife, even if he marries the daughter of the Li family and enters the door, it does not mean that you have to guard this paralysis for the rest of your life, as long as my political status remains unchanged, the Hu family will not change, and your paralyzed wife has her own subordinates to serve, And there is no one to stop you from taking a concubine. You are not marrying a wife, you are marrying a political status and family background.
It's just that Hu Buwei can't say these words to his son. Although he disdains loyalty and filial piety from the bottom of his bones, he still has to create a positive image in front of his son.
Hu Buwei said: "The secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu Shi Buchui and I have a good relationship, I will ask him to help you arrange this matter." ”
Hu Xiaotian pretended to be lost and said: "Since Dad has decided, the child has nothing to say." "Actually, this thing would like to leave Hu Buwei's side as soon as possible, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, even if it is to go to a remote area to be a petty official.
Hu Buwei said: "I have an idea, this time I leave Beijing as an official, try not to let too many people know, because my father doesn't want you to be disturbed too much." ”
Hu Xiaotian said: "Dad, you mean, don't you want outsiders to know about our relationship?" ”
Hu Buwei nodded and said: "Even if it's the Li family, I don't want them to know, you grew up by my side since you were a child, you have always been pampered, and you have never experienced any wind and waves. ”
Hu Xiaotian bowed deeply and said, "Dad's hard-working child understands. ”
Hu Buwei saw that his son was so sensible, and he was reluctant in his heart, and sighed softly: "I haven't told your mother yet, if I let her know, I will definitely not agree." ”
Hu Xiaotianxin said don't change your mind, I finally had the opportunity to fly solo, you have to send me out ruthlessly, but he faked it: "The child is not willing to leave his mother!" "Hypocrisy, hypocrisy to the extreme.
Hu Buwei said: "This matter has been decided, and I will explain it to your mother." ”
In his eyes, although his son is smart enough and clever enough, and has a little bit of shit luck, he is not mature enough, greedy for comfort, attached to his parents, accustomed to living under the protection of his parents, and does not want to leave the bustling capital. But Hu Buwei didn't expect that he didn't know this son, all Hu Xiaotian's nostalgia and reluctance were almost pretended, comfort and enjoyment no one was nostalgic, but it was nothing compared to freedom, as for the parents, although Hu Xiaotian was grateful and respectful, he was not nostalgic, and there was no normal relationship between father and son, mother and son. If you get along with each other every day, it will make Hu Xiaotian feel a little awkward.
In the next few days, Juan disappeared like a stone in the sea, and the theft of the Danshu iron coupon was not leaked, and Yiqiē seemed to have returned to peace. Hu Xiaotian is much more honest, and the things that happened in the family have more or less affected him psychologically, maybe one day disaster will befall the Hu family, and as a member of the Hu family, it is likely that he will be consecuted.
Hu Buwei was as calm as ever, and the day after returning from the Eastern Capital, his life was back on track, and he either went to the court or handled official business every day, and it seemed that he was no longer worried about the matter of Danshu Iron Coupons, and seemed to have forgotten about arranging for Hu Xiaotian to leave Beijing as an official.
Hu Xiaotian obviously wanted to leave in his heart, but he couldn't express his inner desire in front of his father, as time went by, his mood became irritable, could it be that this father suddenly changed his mind to leave Beijing as an official?
Since the assassination of Da Street, Hu Buwei has strengthened the protection of his son, and the lineup of six family members in the past has now expanded to eight, and he told these eight people to protect their son every step when he goes out, even if he goes to the toilet.
There is no freedom at all on such days, Hu Xiaotian is like a bird in a cage, the more this is the case, the more he longs for freedom in his heart.
Seven days have passed, early that morning, Hu Xiaotian came to Yi Yuantang, today is a special day, it is the day when Murong Feiyan's wound heals and the stitches can be removed.
When Hu Xiaotian arrived at Yi Yuan Hall, Li Yifeng, the current big boss of Yi Yuan Hall, and Yuan Shiqing, the second leader, were waiting there. Hu Xiaotian secretly thought in his heart, these two gentlemen were dedicated, and the patients did not arrive, so they arrived first.
It is not unusual for Yuan Shiqing to sit here for a consultation, as for Li Yifeng, he came here specifically today, since he witnessed Hu Xiaotian treating Murong Feiyan's injuries that day, Li Yifeng was deeply shocked by Hu Xiaotian's skillful surgical techniques, it is no exaggeration to say that Hu Xiaotian made him suddenly realize a new field of medicine, before that, he had only read some surgical stories in medical classics, what bone scraping and healing, what caesarean section, but in reality he had never seen it once. Li Yifeng originally thought that Hu Xiaotian was the descendant of a medical saint, but later learned that this guy was the only son of Hu Buwei, the head of the household department, and couldn't help but be surprised, speaking of which he still has a relationship with Hu Xiaotian.
