Chapter 24: Sikong Yue
The two of them just sat like this, watching the clouds in the sky flutter slowly, the spring color was just right, the weather was also a little warm, and the sun made people feel a little sleepy.
Sikong Xiao thought about what he wanted to say, and he didn't want to break this peace, but Sikong Yue thought of his intention first, although this younger brother and himself were born from the same mother, their temperament was very different, in the past, they often saw him alone, asked him and didn't say anything, he had a silent and calm that did not match his age, and he could politely say a few words to strangers, and the closer people were, the more silent he was, so he said, "Xiao'er came to me for Brother Jing?" ”
If it is an ordinary banquet, even if Sikong Yue does not show up, Sikong Jing will help her handle it properly, but to the point of letting Xiao'er call her, it can be seen how important today's guests are, no matter what, the family believes in Sikong Jing's judgment.
Since fifteen years ago, my father and several stewards and elders were involved in an accident and died, the eldest brother went out to travel, the second sister entered the palace, there were only a few ladies left in the family, and they almost lost the status of the main family in the clan, thanks to the third Sikong Jing stood up, originally as a scholar Sikong Jing wanted to do nothing more than to take the test to serve the country, but because of this accident broke the original plan, Sikong Jing, who had just reached the weak crown, had to choose to give up the books and began to learn to be a housekeeper to deal with various people. From the beginning, the young master who was ignorant of the world became the leader of the hundreds of people in the Sikong family who are now convinced, Sikong Jing has put a lot of effort, so Sikong Yue's judgment of Sikong Jing has actually been determined in his heart, but he has always hated the red tape of dealing with those civil officials, so he hid here to be idle.
Sikong Xiao looked at the sister in front of him and said, "Sister Yue, the third brother said that the inspector who came to the door today was newly appointed, and it is very likely to become your military imperial history, and the third brother means that you will go and see it."
"I know, you go and tell Brother Jing that I will change my clothes and then I will arrive" Although Sikong Yue said that he would go, he still maintained the posture of looking up at the clouds and did not move, and he got a promise Sikong Xiao got up and left first, leaving Sikong Yue to continue to be in a daze.
In the main hall of Qinzhu Garden, the mahogany table with a hundred birds climbing auspicious cloud patterns, Sikong Jing let the superintendent of the imperial Shi Qin to the seat and then asked Sikong Xiao to find Sikong Yue to come over, although his sister also has an official position, but he doesn't like to deal with the official family is really a headache, these days there are a lot of visitors at home for her, but she can hide and hide, she can only put down her own things to receive these guests for her, it stands to reason that Sikong Jing does not have an official and a half position, just a flat-headed people, and has the identity of being the head of the Sikong family, Even if the officials of the DPRK and China saw him, they would call him Lord Jing.
After Sikong Jing and the superintendent Yushi exchanged pleasantries and drank for three rounds, Sikong Yue was late.
"General Sikong, under Qin Heng" Qin Yushi got up and bowed to Sikong Yue, the military supervised the imperial history but from the fifth grade, Sikong Yue, the general of Zhenbei, is a third-grade official position, but the other party's behavior of not reporting the official position when he greeted him like this is rare among the visitors.
Sikong Yue nodded, regarded it as a return salute, pulled out a chair and sat down directly. Seeing that the person had arrived, Sikong Jing turned around and gave an order to the maid standing behind him, and the wine and food were brought up, Qin Heng gently twisted the white jade wine glass in front of him, raised it and saluted Sikong Yue, Sikong Yue didn't like to deal with civil officials, and now he hasn't consciously sent it to the door, this meal makes Sikong Yue don't know the taste.
