Chapter 58 - Receiving Disciples
"Jiang Xiu Xiaoyou, this little girl in your family is really likable, I don't know whose family it is?" Tao Wenli asked with a smile on his face, looking at Jiang Xiu. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Qin Yun and Li Jing are both from a righteous brother I met in Pirate Harbor, and they are very well-behaved and sensible." Jiang Xiu had a smile on his face, a rare glow of kindness.
"How could your brother-in-law be willing to let these two cute little guys follow you around, if my old guy has such two lovely juniors, he must keep them at home, and he can't deceive others with any rhetoric," Tao Wenli said with a smile.
Jiang Xiu's face stiffened suddenly, and he didn't speak, Xiao Li Jing's already cold face became even colder, Xiao Qin Yun's originally smiling little face suddenly turned white, and the originally harmonious atmosphere in the car suddenly stiffened.
Tao Wenli, who has a lot of experience, immediately tasted that something was wrong from everyone's expressions, was silent for a moment, and said, "I'm sorry. ”
Jiang Xiu sighed, looked at Xiao Qin Yun's little face and said, "Actually, I also know that it is not a way to always run around with me, I also want to find a place to settle her, but I have never had the opportunity to return to Qi'an, otherwise it is not a way to hand it over to the family teacher to support." ”
Tao Wenli was silent for a moment, and said suddenly: "I know your family Master Chen, don't say that you don't have time to send the little girl back to Qi'an now, that is, with the character of your Chen Master, I'm afraid it's not very suitable for taking children, I have a suggestion, I don't know if Jiang Xiu's little friend is willing to listen." ”
"Sir, but it doesn't hurt to speak."
"When I was young, Tao Wenli was half a life, famous, and had a great ambition to become a great career, so he never married, and naturally had no heirs, my second brother Tao Wenli once wanted to pass on a son to me, but I thought that the kid was too dull, unwilling to take in, and when he was old, he lived in this center for many years, but he couldn't help but be a little lonely," Tao Wenli's expression inadvertently showed a trace of majesty and confidence to the undisguised low loneliness later, Only then did Jiang Xiu and the others feel that the seemingly ordinary old man in front of them was really a generalissimo who had experienced the ups and downs of the times and made great achievements for the Star Alliance!
Tao Wenli looked at Xiao Qin Yun, and a trace of love flashed on his face: "Today I see that this little girl is spiritually well-behaved, smart and smart, but it is rare for me to be born, and her life experience makes me feel guilty, so I want to accept her as an apprentice and inherit my mantle, I don't know if Jiang Xiu Xiaoyou agrees or not." ”
A trace of surprise flashed on Jiang Xiu's face, he didn't expect that the former generalissimo who was famous throughout the Star Alliance, and now the brother of Prince Tao Wenli, the head of the Heyu Tao family, and the master of the gold list, Mr. Tao Wenli, actually wanted to accept Xiao Qin Yun as an apprentice, this is a big surprise, you know, with these identities, Mr. Tao Wenli's actual reputation is even greater than Jiang Xiu's teacher Chen An, after all, Chen An has only been a great grandmaster for two years, plus he has not yet broken through to the level of a seventh-order tattoo master, and in terms of actual fame, he can't compare with these old bigwigs. Of course, if in a few years, Chen An breaks through the seventh order, coupled with the accumulation of time, his prestige will naturally surpass these old bigwigs, after all, the name of the great grandmaster can be famous through the ages.
However, just as Jiang Xiu was silently pondering, he didn't notice that Xiao Qin Yun's face was getting whiter and whiter, and tears gradually welled up in his eyes.
Jiang Xiu didn't notice, it didn't mean that Xiao Li Jing couldn't notice it, Xiao Li Jing held Xiao Qinyun's hand suddenly, and said with a pale face: "Enough, Li Qinyun is my sister, you and her are not related, and it is not your turn to be her master!" ”
Jiang Xiu was stunned for a moment, subconsciously glanced at Xiao Qin Yun, and when he saw Xiao Qin Yun's appearance of the rain hitting the pear blossoms now, he suddenly felt a pain in his heart, the cautious thoughts on his face disappeared, and he said with pity: "Qin Yun, don't you want to be the old man's apprentice?" ”
Xiao Qin Yun said while crying: "Uncle Jiang Xiu, Uncle Jiang Xiu, what did Xiao Qin Yun do badly?" You say, I'll just change it, don't drive Xiao Qin Yun away, and Xiao Qin Yun don't leave Uncle Jiang Xiu. ”
Xiao Qin Yun's appearance made Jiang Xiu's heart ache, and he hurriedly hugged Xiao Qin Yun in his arms and said, "How could Uncle drive Xiao Qin Yun away, Xiao Qin Yun is so cute and sensible, Uncle is reluctant to drive you away." ”
"Then I don't want to go with the old man, old, although the old man is a good person, but, but, but Xiao Qin Yun just wants to be with Uncle Jiang Xiu, and Uncle Don't drive me away."
"Okay, okay, uncle won't let Xiao Qinyun go, don't let Xiao Qinyun go......" Jiang Xiu's skills in coaxing children are indeed average, and he only said these few words for a long time, but it was these few words that made Xiao Qinyun quite useful, and he soon burst into laughter.
Seeing that Xiao Qinyun stopped crying, Jiang Xiu finally breathed a sigh of relief, raised his head, and glanced at Tao Wenli with a wry smile: "Sir......"
"I know." Tao Wenli laughed heartily, "I made a mistake, but I didn't expect this little girl to be so dependent on you, and I don't know why your kid is so charming, you must know that when the old man was young, he was also a handsome guy who could make many beautiful girls affectionate, alas, it was really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves, but I can't compare to you young people." ”
"Grandpa, it's not that Xiao Qin Yun doesn't like the old man, but Xiao Qin Yun doesn't want to be separated from Uncle Jiang Xiu, so Xiao Qin Yun can't go with the old man."
"Grandpa knows." Tao Wenli's eyes suddenly rolled and said, "Little Qin Yun, do you want to be my apprentice?" ”
"I want to think about it, but I ......"
"Just think about it," Tao Wenli clapped his hands, "Old man, I didn't say that you must follow me now, you can go to Ya'an with your Uncle Jiang Xiu first, today I will first sort out a list of the essentials of the star master's cultivation for you, you can just cultivate according to this essence, and you should be enough to have your Jiang Xiu guidance at ordinary times." ”
Xiao Qin Yun was dumbfounded, stunned for a long time, and finally asked strangely: "But old man, you gave me your cheats, but I can't accompany you, what are you trying to do?" ”
"What's the picture? Little girl, you can't help but look down on the old man and me, the old man, I am selfless, I don't want to reciprocate, I see the weak and help me, this is quality and morality, how can I want anything! "The old man raised his head and made a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance.
When Xiao Qin Yun heard this, his eyes suddenly burst into stars: "The old man is so good, the old man is really a good person!" ”
"Then you are still called Grandpa, and you still don't change your name to Master?" Tao Wenli pretended to be serious and said.
"Master!" Xiao Qin Yun was as good as a stream, and immediately said crisply.
"Hey." Tao Wenli suddenly smiled, and responded, "Good apprentice, Master just met, and he didn't bring anything valuable, there is a ninth-order star diamond here, although no master has been able to tattoo it into a ninth-order star emblem, but it can also moisturize the body when it is usually carried, and it can also be used as an energy star drill when necessary, and the ninth-order energy will only be used up for ten days even if you use the third-order and fourth-order star emblems continuously and uninterrupted, and it can play a big role when necessary." ”
Jiang Xiu looked at this ninth-order star diamond, there was no redness in his eyes, only envy, for these big people of the great family, the ninth-order star diamond that was regarded as a treasure in the eyes of ordinary people was a gift from them to their disciples, and to them it was just an ordinary gift.
Xiao Qinyun looked at Jiang Xiu, his eyes were full of inquiries, Jiang Xiu nodded, Xiao Qinyun turned around and said with a smile: "Thank you, teacher." ”
Tao Wenli handed the star diamond to Xiao Qin Yun: "Next time, you can take what the teacher gives you, don't look at your Uncle Jiang Xiu, what I give you has nothing to do with your Uncle Jiang Xiu." ”
"But Uncle Jiang Xiu said that you can't ask for things given by others." Xiao Qin Yun tilted his head and said.
Jiang Xiu touched his nose embarrassedly: "You can ask for anything given by Mr. in the future, and Mr. will not harm you." ”
……
Passing through the long and empty streets, the hovercar stopped in front of a small hotel, which was called a hotel without a name, and all the guests who came to the center and some of the government workers who were too busy to return home late at night would be arranged to stay here.
"Okay, young people, when you get to the place, my task is completed, listening to my old man's nagging all the way, you must be tired of it, old man, I have not had anyone to talk to me for many years, don't be surprised." Tao Wenli let out a hearty laugh.
Jiang Xiu smiled slightly, and said: "Mr. can chat with us, we feel flattered and too late, how can we get tired, when we have the opportunity in the future, I will come to the door to disturb Mr. one or two, and I hope that Mr. will not turn us away at that time." ”
"Sweep the couch and wait for it." Tao Wenli squinted his eyes and said with a smile.
"Then I'll go first, take care, sir."
"Goodbye, teacher." Xiao Qin Yun waved his hand to Tao Wenli obediently, making Tao Wenli smile.
"Goodbye Xiao Qinyun, although the teacher doesn't ask you to accompany the teacher, you still have to come and see the teacher when you have time."
"Xiao Qinyun knows that Xiao Qinyun will often come to see the teacher." Xiao Qinyun waved his hand and followed Jiang Xiu and the rest of the people in the car into the hotel, but Tao Wenli and Jiang Xiu and others, especially Xiao Qinyun, were so intimate that many powerful people frequently looked sideways, they hadn't heard that Tao Wenli had such an intimate relationship with a little girl before.
Everyone couldn't help but feel sorry in their hearts, secretly guessing whether this little girl who had followed Jiang Xiu for many years would be Tao Wenli's unknown illegitimate daughter.
Walking into the hotel, there is no service staff at the front desk, guests only need to scan their identification in the machine in the hotel lobby, and the machine will automatically confirm the identity of the guests, reserve a room for the guests, and the guests only need to open the corresponding door through the scanning system on the Yao Fang.
Jiang Xiu and the five of them chose five adjacent rooms, each settled their luggage, and began to prepare for the summons that Charles I might have at any time in the afternoon.
……
In the depths of the misty palace, in the imperial study where His Majesty the Emperor received his close ministers, an old man dressed in a golden dragon robe and a golden jade crown on his head, with a majestic appearance, sat behind a table made of gold and jade, bowing his head and flipping through the folds of various places on the light screen.
This person is none other than His Majesty Charles I, the current Emperor of the Empire, and in front of him, several courtiers dressed in ministers' robes stand with their hands down, respectfully waiting for His Majesty's approval of the recital.
These ministers are not those foreign ministers who are in charge of state affairs, they are all internal affairs officials who have lived in the deep palace for many years and are responsible for His Majesty's clothing, food, housing and transportation, and the three internal affairs officials here - Franklin, the chief of the Youlong Pavilion who is in charge of the foreign affairs of the imperial family, Ek, the general leader of the Shaolong Pavilion who is in charge of the living of the imperial family, and Ye Wei, the chief of the Weilong Pavilion who is responsible for the protection of the imperial family, they have been following His Majesty the Emperor for many years, and they can be regarded as the closest ministers of His Majesty the Emperor.
In the middle of the night, Charles I turned off the light screen, raised his head, looked at the three ministers in front of him, and asked, "Have all the members of the third delegation to Ya'an come today?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, I just received news that the delegation has arrived at the center from the Ilanda Star, and now they have been arranged to stay in the hotel, waiting for your Majesty's reception at any time." Franklin, the general leader of the Dragon Pavilion, bowed his head and said.
Charles I closed his eyes, pondered for a moment and said, "Who is the delegation this time, I don't seem to have seen the list of delegations this time. ”
"Back to Your Majesty, the Chairman sent the list of delegations to the Imperial Study a few days ago, and you were dealing with the issue of the Kaspersky Line in Lunyu at that time, so I think you forgot."
"Yes, I've been busy and dizzy for the past two days, and I'm confused."
"Your Majesty has every opportunity, and there is no need to blame yourself."
"Who are the members of the delegation this time, talk to me and listen."
"Back to Your Majesty, in the delegation to Lunyu this time, the main members are Hua Zejing, the first heir of the Heyu Hua family, Xu Ziqing, the tattoo master of the Heyu Xu family, Domino Sikelle, the side of the Lunyu Skyle clan, Jin Lei, the deputy head of the tattoo master department of the Jinshen faction of the checkered trading house, the elder of the Elders Association of the Tattoo Master Association, Pearson, and Jiang Xiu, the disciple of Chen An, the great master of the Star Alliance."
"Jiang Xiu?" His Majesty Charles I raised his eyebrows and said softly.
"Exactly," said Franklin, "I heard that Grand Master Chen An personally made a request to Chairman Mikhail. ”
Charles I nodded, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Interesting, interesting, I didn't expect him to come." ”
Franklin was slightly stunned, not quite understanding the meaning of Charles I's words.
"By the way, I heard that the relationship between the Tattoo Master Association and Master Chen's apprentice is not very good, and this delegation is very interesting."
"Indeed, there was a rumor just two days ago that Mr. Jiang Xiu had just greatly shaved the face of the Tattoo Master Association at the auction of Elanda Star, and I heard that the Tattoo Master Association hated Mr. Jiang Xiu and Grand Master Chen An to the core, and they might make some small moves on this voyage," the head of the Shaolong Pavilion, Ek, paused suddenly, and said cautiously, "I don't know what you think, Your Majesty, should we reconcile in the middle?" ”
"Reconcile?" His Majesty the Emperor smiled slightly, "Why reconcile, this face is good, I am very happy." Not only do I not want to reconcile, but I also want Jiang Xiu to ruthlessly control the Association of Tattoo Masters. ”
Several ministers looked embarrassed and did not take the emperor's stubble.
Charles I's eyes lit up: "The order goes down, at two o'clock this afternoon, I will send delegations one after another, so that they can prepare well!" (To be continued.) )
