Then he took a deep look at Ye Qingge.

I thought, old man, when I used to accept apprentices, others rushed to come, and I finally saw a pleasing one, and I wanted to accept apprentices, but I was rejected?

Don't......

Could it be that the old man's charm is not as good as before?

"What do you want to learn? The old man can see if he can teach. ”

Seeing that this old man didn't speak just now, I thought it was cowardice, but I didn't expect to ask such a straightforward word now, Ye Qingge really felt a little embarrassed!

"Is anything okay? Are you omnipotent? ”

The old man coughed lightly, and then threw Ye Qingge a roll of his eyes.

"How can it be omnipotent, the old man is just an ordinary person, and he is not a fairy! If you don't say what you want to learn, how will the old man know if he can teach it? ”

Ye Qingge stuck out his tongue embarrassedly.

"Okay......"

Immediately, his eyes suddenly lit up, maybe this old man knew about Gu techniques?

"Well, I'll ask you a few questions before deciding whether or not to be your apprentice?"

Seeing that the old man didn't speak, Ye Qingge added a few more words.

"After all, I'm a newcomer, and I still don't know much about you, and you don't know anything about me, right?"

The old man saw that the girl was talking one by one, and she was bored anyway, so he nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Ye Qingge began to prepare the questions to ask.

"What is your relationship with Tang Hua and Tang Master Tang, who held a hunting event in the school that day? Why do you two look so alike? ”

After Ye Qingge's words fell, his narrow eyes kept observing the expression of the old man in front of him, trying not to let go of any subtle expression.

"That man? Let's put it this way, the old man, I am Tang Hua, and that person is just a stand-in for the old man. ”

The amount of information in these words is really a bit large, Ye Qingge feels that he can't digest it?

Scapegoat? Why did such a respected Tang master actually have a stand-in? Moreover, he still wants to take me as an apprentice? This...... Isn't that incredible?

Seeing Ye Qingge's shocked appearance, the old man felt as if he had scared this little girl.

So, he stretched out his wrinkled hand and patted Ye Qingge's shoulder with no light or heavy strength.

"Girl, are you alright?"

Ye Qingge came back from the shock and smiled a little embarrassedly.

"I'm fine, I'm fine. Just, why do you need a stand-in? I can't figure this out, huh? ”

After the words fell, Ye Qingge suddenly felt that his problem seemed to be a little out of line.

"Otherwise, don't answer it, I feel like this question is a little too private, and I don't seem to know it."

The old man glanced at Ye Qingge helplessly.

"If the old man doesn't want you to know, do you think you can know? Besides, as long as the secret of the old man's stand-in is known to the top management, it is not a big deal. ”

"As for why there is a stand-in, it is actually not a stand-in for the old man, he is the elder brother of the old man, and the old man has never forced him, he is willing to be the stand-in for the old man."

At this point, Ye Qingge's brain is even more confused, is there such a stupid person in this world, who is willing to be someone else's shadow?

"But why would he be your stand-in?"

When the old man heard Ye Qingge's question, he suddenly smiled, and the wrinkles on his face became very deep.

"Of course, because of vanity, the old man's fame is outside, and he will naturally be respected if he lives as an old man."

Ye Qingge still didn't understand a little.

"Then aren't you afraid that he will ruin your reputation?"

The old man shook his head, and glanced at Ye Qingge with an expression that you don't understand.

"He won't ruin the old man's reputation, think about it, if the old man's reputation is stinky, how can he enjoy all this with peace of mind?"

Well, that makes sense.

"Moreover, there is an elder brother who helps the old man deal with things, and the old man is very idle now!"

These words made Ye Qingge feel the urge to beat this old man.

I can also figure out why the little guy ran away when he saw this old man.

If a person is bored, not only will he drive himself crazy, but he will also have a good chance of finding a way to drive the people around him crazy, which is really terrible.

The old man glanced at the colorful expression on Ye Qingge's face, and felt more and more that this girl was too interesting.

"How? You've got all the questions you need to ask, right? If you still have any doubts, just continue to ask. ”

Ye Qingge thought about it carefully, well, he came up with another question.

"Then you have a stand-in, does Your Majesty know about it today?"

The old man shook his head, then nodded again.

In this way, Ye Qingge was even more incomprehensible.

"Your Majesty knows it or not, the old man really doesn't know very well, but even if he knows, the old man is now alone, and now he is only left with this academy to take care of it, and he has no real power. So he won't deal with the old man at all because of this. ”

At the very least, even if he was given ten guts, he wouldn't dare to deal with it openly.

Ye Qingge also understands a little bit of the truth.

Even if Your Majesty knows that Master Tang has a stand-in, ordinary people definitely don't know, and Master's reputation has always been very good, and there are many students who have received his favor, such a person, if His Majesty wants to get rid of it, it will be very difficult to do it.

"Then why did you resign from the Hanlin Academy in the first place?"

After this question was asked, Ye Qingge noticed that the old man seemed to be stunned for a moment, as if he was thinking about something.

It didn't take long to hear the old man's hoarse voice.

"Alas! What do you want to say about this? The old man resigned from the Hanlin Academy, also because he saw through some things, the old man was a person who had no quarrel with the world, and he just wanted to seek peace, so he had to resign. ”

"It's too difficult to get out of the mud in officialdom without being stained, and it's better to come according to your heart's desire. What do you think, girl? ”

Ye Qingge admired the old man's inner pattern a little, and he was ashamed of himself!

"What you said is indeed very reasonable, life is short, and being happy in time is also an attitude of life."

"By the way, don't you ask me where I'm from and what my name is?"

When the old man heard this, he sneered. looked at Ye Qingge and felt a little inexplicable.

"You girl, do you think the old man will talk here with someone who hasn't investigated?"

"Your name is Ye Qingge, the concubine of the General's Mansion, as for your personality or something, I feel that you are very similar to the old man, judging from your actions, you must have practiced martial arts. As for the character, the old man still believes in the people who came out of the General's Mansion. ”

Ye Qingge was a little surprised by the old man's sharp eyes, but the people who came out of the General's Mansion must have good character?

The old man noticed Ye Qingge's doubts, so he smiled and explained again.

"It's not entirely because you're from the General's Mansion, it's more important that you make the old man interested. So do you want to be the old man's apprentice? ”
