Chapter 31: Good Night, Mrs. Sue
In the study.
The old man closed his eyes and didn't speak, even when he heard Su Yi coming in, he didn't open his eyes, he still closed his eyes and recuperated, looking leisurely.
Su Yi stood with his hands down, waiting for him to open his eyes.
Who knew that half an hour had passed.
Su Yi was still standing there, waiting quietly, but he was wondering in his heart, did his father-in-law really sleep?
However, he didn't dare to move, nor did he dare to scream, because he knew in his heart that this was the old prime minister changing his way to test him.
It wasn't until half an hour had passed that the old prime minister opened his eyes, saw Su Yi, and was very surprised: "You came early?" Why don't you call me, I'm old, and I accidentally fell asleep. ”
Su Yi smiled: "It's the son-in-law who came late, and the father-in-law has been waiting for a long time." ”
"Huh!" The old prime minister suddenly glared at him and scolded, "What are you calling nonsense? Who is your father-in-law? I haven't recognized you as my son-in-law. ”
"What my father-in-law taught me is that my son-in-law is abrupt." Su Yi's attitude was surprisingly good, and the conversation changed, "However, not yet, it will always be in the future." ”
The old prime minister snorted, and when he saw the smile on Su Yi's face, he felt that it was very eyesore. "It's so late, you have time to come, why didn't you come early?"
Su Yi immediately said: "In order to live up to my father-in-law's expectations, I have been busy and have no time to visit my father-in-law and Yue'er, this is my fault." Now that I have free time, I can't control my feet for a while, so I came. ”
The old prime minister squinted, obviously not very satisfied with his answer, but he knew that he was too embarrassed to be bad, otherwise he would go back and let Liangyue know, and he might not be able to complain.
It's so big that I can't help it!
The old prime minister sighed faintly in his heart, looking at Su Yi, it was like seeing a pig arching the cabbage in his field, alas...... It's cheaper for this kid.
"Let me ask you, have you heard about Night City?" The old prime minister is ready to cut to the chase.
Su Yi said: "I heard about some, the Night City mutiny, there are rebels attacking the city, and they want to monopolize the Night City and establish themselves as kings." ”
"Hmm." The old prime minister nodded, "That's right." At present, the third prince Helian Jing personally asked for orders to quell the rebellion, what do you think about this? ”
"It's the end of the year, but the night city has a sudden mutiny, if it's just a few rebels it's not worth mentioning, I'm afraid that the traitors and the traitors in the city should be together, although the night city has five princes to guard, but not long ago the general who also guarded the night city brought a lot of troops back to the imperial city, and there are only 10,000 soldiers and horses left in the night city. In such a situation, the situation in Night City is not optimistic, and I am afraid that it will not last for two days. ”
The old prime minister looked at him: "That's why you asked the third prince to take the initiative to ask for his life and lead the troops to the night city to rescue the five princes?" ”
That morning, Helian Jing said that this was the case, not mentioning how the night city was doing, only saying that he was worried about the safety of the five princes and the people in the city, so he took the initiative to ask for his life and personally led the troops to the night city.
The ministers of the DPRK and China all agreed, and at the same time, they also appreciated Helian Jing even more - such a third highness who cares about the people and his siblings is worthy of the most promising candidate for the crown prince.
Even the old emperor was very happy and praised Helian Jing.
Su Yi lowered his eyes slightly and said, "As a master, you must always seek some future for your apprentices." Besides, the third prince has that ability, I just add a little bit of push, which not only solves the urgent need of Night City, but also seeks his reputation and popularity, the best of both worlds, why not? ”
"You're not afraid that the apprentice of the church will starve you to death." The old prime minister was slightly dissatisfied, but in his heart he agreed with Su Yi's approach, but he just didn't want to show his satisfaction, so Su Yi was proud when he saw it.
Su Yi laughed and said, "Father-in-law, don't worry, the third prince has some skills, but it's not enough to compare me, otherwise, my reputation as a wizard in the imperial city will be in vain." ”
You're confident.
The old prime minister glanced at him, and finally nodded, "Okay, sit down and talk." ”
Su Yi smiled, knowing that today's level had finally passed, so he sat down with his clothes on the hem, and saw tea boiling on the stove next to him, so he realized: I'm afraid I won't be able to go back tonight.
Sure enough, the old prime minister said quietly: "See if the tea is cooked?" ”
Su Yi looked at it, "Not yet." ”
"Oh, then you can just watch here, when it's ready, when it's time to call me." The old prime minister couldn't help but feel a little proud, little one, I can't cure you? There is not much firewood in this stove, but this pot of tea is filled with ice water, and there are ice cubes in it that have not been melted, and the fire in the stove is not enough just to melt those ice cubes, let alone boil this pot of water to make tea.
Su Yi caught a glimpse of the old prime minister's expression, and saw that there was no extra firewood next to the stove, and the fire inside was not too strong. I couldn't help but feel a little funny. Seeing that the old prime minister got up leisurely to go to the soft collapse to rest, he asked, "Is it okay to boil this water?" ”
"Of course, if the water doesn't boil, how can you make tea?" The old prime minister had just walked to the soft couch to sit down, and when he caught a glimpse of Su Yi, he suddenly paused, stared at his eyes and looked confused, and forgot what he was going to say for a while.
Because Su Yi was holding the teapot in one hand and exercising in the other, he was stunned to boil the pot of tea with internal force......
Su Yi was not too hot, and slowly put the teapot that was constantly steaming out on the table, and smiled at the old prime minister: "Father-in-law, the water is boiling, do you want to make tea now?" ”
Old Prime Minister: ......
You're cheating!
The old prime minister's mustache shook and trembled, but there was nothing to refute.
In the end, the old prime minister had no choice but to give in: "Okay, let's make tea." After a pause, he moved his buttocks, and suddenly sighed, "Okay, you can go." ”
Su Yi brewed tea unhurriedly, and after a set of actions, he was not in a hurry or slow, but the air was filled with a clear fragrance.
"Father-in-law, please have tea." Su Yi brought the tea to the old prime minister and invited him to drink tea with a smile.
The old prime minister looked at the tea, then at Su Yi, and had to reach out to take it.
Su Yi said: "I know that my father-in-law is trying to embarrass me in every possible way, just to test how much patience I have, but I think father-in-law, you can rest assured, I may not have much patience for other things, but for Liangyue, I can't use up my patience." Speaking of this, it seemed that he remembered Liang Yue's puffy little face, and couldn't help but smile a little, and continued, "It is precisely because you are her father that I respect you, and I will love and honor you like her." ”
Because I love her, I love what she loves, and I respect her.
The old prime minister looked at him for a long time, slowly stood up, and said with a serious expression: "What you said is from the heart?" ”
"If it's not the truth, how dare I speak?"
"You wait." The old prime minister waved his hand, frowned, and circled back and forth around the desk several times.
Another quarter of an hour passed, and the old prime minister suddenly stopped, turned to Su Yi, and said with a little anger: "You kid, but you have to listen to me!" I only have a daughter like Yue'er in my life, and I grew up in the palm of my hand since I was a child, and I have never wronged her for half a point. I know she likes you too, and since you have this sincerity, then I have to say it in advance, if she makes any mistakes in the future, you must not beat her and scold her! Send her back, and I'll teach her a lesson myself, but it's never your turn to do it. ”
"Follow the teachings. I'll definitely remember. Su Yi smiled slightly, nodded seriously, and said that he had written it down.
In fact, he didn't even love Liang Yue enough, how could he be willing to give her grievances?
"You can marry her, but you must be a wife." The old prime minister continued in a deep voice, "She is the only one who is the wife. Can this be done? ”
"Originally, I only married her, so why did I say that?" Su Yi smiled and dispelled the old prime minister's worries, "Father-in-law, please rest assured, I, Su Yi, can swear here, in my life, I will only marry Liangyue as my wife." If there is any disobedience, it will not be ......"
"Hey, okay, okay, okay." The old prime minister hurriedly interrupted him, pretending to be annoyed, "What kind of poisonous oath did you make?" If Yue'er knows about this, then what's the matter? She thought I forced you to say it, but she couldn't help it. ”
Su Yi smiled slightly and asked, "What else does my father-in-law have to entrust?" ”
The old prime minister pondered for a long time, as if he didn't want to face Su Yi, so he turned his back to him and said almost word for word: "There is one last point." ”
"You are now the master of the three princes, and you are deeply respected by the old emperor, but you can accompany the king like a tiger, if you are not careful, it is very likely to be an abyss. If...... If it's you in the future, I mean just in case, if something happens to you, once you can't cross it, please let Yue'er go. A book and a book can be separated, so that you can get together and disperse, don't, don't bother her. ”
"If you have a child, don't worry, I won't ask her to remarry, I will help you raise the child, and I will also help you take care of Yue'er. If you come back safe and sound, you can continue to live together, but if so, if you are someday...... Don't blame me for speaking badly now, I'm just trying to live well for Yue'er. ”
After the old prime minister finished speaking, he sighed and stopped talking.
Su Yi was silent for a while, bowed deeply to the old prime minister, and said solemnly: "Please rest assured, father-in-law, if something happens to me in the future, I will definitely write and leave the book in advance and send her back from Yue'er." Please also ask my father-in-law to keep his promise and help me take care of her if I am really absent one day. ”
"Su Yi is here, thank you Prime Minister."
It's not Xie's father-in-law, but Xie Chengxiang.
Su Yi was telling him that if he was away from him in the future, if Liangyue found a lover again, he could marry again. Then, he is no longer the son-in-law of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Compared to Liang Yue's happiness, his status is really nothing.
"Go back, Yue'er must still be waiting for you to go back." The old prime minister didn't turn around, but just waved his hand and motioned for him to go out.
In the Peach Blossom Xuan, the lights were still on in Liang Yue's room, Su Yi pushed the door in, and Liang Yue was half lying on the bed dozing.
He slowed his pace, walked slowly, leaned down and hugged her. "Why haven't you slept yet?"
Liang Yue was stimulated by the cool air on his body, and immediately woke up, and when he saw that he was back, he immediately hugged him happily, and said with a smile: "I'm waiting for you to come back, thinking that you won't be delayed for too long, sure enough, let me wait!" ”
There was some pride in his tone: Look, I didn't sleep and waited for you to come back.
Su Yi was full of emotion, hugged her and lay down together, watching her nest in his arms with a satisfied face and closing her eyes, the corners of her mouth unconsciously raised, and her heart was filled with this warmth.
Liang Yue was already extremely sleepy, but she was held in her arms by Su Yi at this moment, and she just closed her eyes and fell asleep peacefully.
Su Yi kissed her forehead softly, and said to her in a very light voice, "Good night, Mrs. Su." ”
