Chapter 675: The Fire of Gossip ......
Dejectedly, I followed Uncle Lee towards the outside of the artillery test site. In my heart, it was as if someone had just taken a scoop of cold water and poured it on, and it was cool and cool. Tilting his head to glance at Flowing Frost in the distance, Flowing Frost seemed to be discussing something with the craftsmen in a heated manner.
After a short walk, I finally returned to the office of the Martial Arts Research Institute, Uncle Li sat down with an old face, and I stood beside him in a gloomy manner. The old man closed his eyes in contemplation, occasionally rolled his eyelids to look at me, and then turned back with a cold snort, leaving me with the back of his head.
However, Uncle Li's expression made me finally relieved, at least, the old guy's tone just now was not particularly harsh, it seems that maybe this matter can pass Uncle Li's level, after all, my situation is special, who let Uncle Li's old flower stick give me a concubine room for me before marrying the princess, and we also married more than just a princess A wife, however, we still have to be vigilant, the old hooligan is not good, follow the hair stroke, in order not to let Uncle Li find an excuse to vent, use me as a punching bag.
It didn't take long for the red-faced Liushuang to walk in from outside the house and give Uncle Li a deep salute: "Xiaodao has seen His Majesty the Emperor. ”
"Well, excuse me, sit down, you don't have to be too formal, your master and I are also close friends, you are my junior, you don't need to be too restrained." Uncle Li looked at Liushuang carefully and said gently.
Liushuang bowed slightly, sat on the group cushion, lowered his eyebrows, very well-behaved, his eyes quietly slanted a glance, I crooked the corners of my mouth, it was a smile back to Liushuang, the old rascal seemed to have a third eye on the back of his head, snorted, half-tilted his head, and gave me a vicious look, I could only turn a blind eye, looking at the cobwebs on the top of the house in a daze.
"Is your common name Huo?" Uncle Li stroked his long beard and said slowly. "Exactly, the surname of the Xiaodao family is the surname Huo." Liushuang was slightly stunned, raised his eyes and glanced at His Majesty the Tang Emperor Uncle Li suspiciously, and replied.
Uncle Li nodded: "You have merit to my Tang Dynasty, you have great merit," Uncle Li stretched out his finger and nodded at Liushuang, and sighed: "I also know some of your life experience, I heard your master say, sister and brother, how good ......is it to be like this" Uncle Li did not continue, but sighed a little.
---------------------------------------------------- "I want to ask, are you and your brother going to be outsiders for the rest of your life, or are you ......?"
Liushuang shook his head: "No, Liushuang has to be rescued by the master, so that he and his younger brother can survive so far, in order not to let the bloodline of my Huo family be cut off, my younger brother is still studying with the master, Xiaodao wants to wait for a few more years, and after my unsuccessful brother's heart can be calmer, I will say goodbye to the master, and I will do a career in the future, start a family, and always stop the incense of our Huo family......"
"Hehehe, good, little girl, I have a good mind, it's rare, no wonder it's ......" Uncle Li squinted his eyes and smiled weirdly, seeing Uncle Li's expression, I put fifteen buckets in my heart, very up-and-down.
The old rascal's finger tapped lightly on the desk: "What about yourself?" Have you done anything for yourself? Don't worry, I'm just a little curious, just ask, and I'll answer when I'm ready. The tone was very gentle, but anyone could hear it, and the old rascal wanted to get to the bottom of it.
"Xiaodao, Xiaodao doesn't know." Liushuang's expression looked a little flustered, his eyes were a little sloppy, nonsense, you can't say in front of your father-in-law that she wants to marry your son-in-law, right?
Uncle Li seemed to be very considerate and nodded, stood up, and shook his robe: "In the past two years, my virtuous son-in-law has praised you a lot of good things, hot air balloons, artillery, bows, crossbows, and steel crossbows, the Martial Arts Research Institute can have today's scene, you have made great contributions, but it is a pity that you are a woman, since my dynasty, there is no precedent for a woman to be an official, originally you are an outsider, I rewarded you with gold and silver money, and I can't show your merits, now, since your sisters and brothers have the heart to take off this outside the robe, I will do it better." ”
Uncle Li walked slowly to Liushuang's side: "My friendship with your master, counting, is also worthy of half of your elders, what do you want, just say it." ”
Flowing Frost hung her head and didn't speak. "Otherwise, I let your brother enter the court as an official, what do you think?" Uncle Li used a tone of discussion, which is very rare, which made me, a good young man standing on the side and pretending to be stupid, relieved, hoping that Liushuang would be bolder and ask to marry me directly, um, but I hate myself for having such obscene thoughts for myself, big guys, marry a girl, and let others take the initiative to ask for it?
"Little girl, thank you for Your Majesty's kindness, my younger brother, who is still young and has no skills, has become an official, I am afraid that it will not only harm him, but also delay the court's business, and I hope Your Majesty will take back this idea."
Uncle Li smiled, and didn't mean to be angry: "My official is for your brother, I didn't say it was for you, why did you refuse my kindness for your brother, could it be that you can be the master of your brother?" ”
"Your Majesty, the little woman thinks she can do this." Liushuang looks very stubborn, and his stubborn surname is revealed again.
"Oh? Hahaha, what a little girl, it's just that, but there is no reward for merit, I won't do this, so let's talk to your master after a while, let you return to the vulgar, I can choose a good person for you from among the children of my clan, which can be regarded as a reward for you, what do you think? ”
"Your Majesty!" I hurriedly stepped forward and saluted to speak. Uncle Li glared at me viciously: "Shut up the old man, and stay aside!" The old man has his own plans in his heart! ”
Liushuang was also startled by Uncle Li's words, a pair of beautiful big eyes widened, glanced at Uncle Li, and then glanced at me who was full of stomach scratches and didn't know how to be good, and lowered her eyes: "The little woman has thanked Your Majesty for your care, the little woman's status is low, how dare she do such a lofty move, and please take back this thought." ”
"Huh?! That's not good, little girl, and you know that this is the second time you've rejected my kindness. How about it, I see that you are also dignified, quite a lady of all people, married to the son and nephew of my clan, if I am the master, naturally no one will dare to embarrass you, you know, I am very good at doing such a good thing. Uncle Li said with a look on his face.
"Little woman......" Liushuang raised her head and met my gaze, her face was slightly pale, and her tone was still stubborn to the extreme: "The little woman doesn't want to, but I still hope that Your Majesty ......"
"Bold!" Uncle Li's face turned pale, and his eyes lit up: "Why, do you dare to disrespect my will?" ”
---------------------------------------------------- "The little girl doesn't want to be difficult for others, and she doesn't want to be difficult for herself. "The frosty cow temper came up, although the delicate body was trembling slightly by Uncle Li's anger, but the stubbornness of the expression and the stubbornness in the eyes made me feel even more distressed.
"What a sharp mouth, I didn't expect that you have an outstanding talent in learning things, and your ability to talk about it also makes me very impressed!" Uncle Li sneered twice, looking at me with a very strange expression, I looked at Uncle Li, his eyes looked desperate and sad, hoping to impress this imperialist leader, the old guy rolled his eyes and threw it at me, and sat straight on the couch. took a sip of tea: "Then I ask you, are you really unwilling to marry someone else?" The smug smile on his face said that as much as he was cheap, he was as cheap as he was.
This is really too skillful, Liushuang nodded, it seems that Fang feels wrong, but it is not good to shake his head, because the old rascal's words are one ring after another, poor Liushuang, and then be tossed by this shameless old man, it is strange not to become a nervous breakdown.
"The minister is guilty!" I couldn't take care of it, I walked to Liushuang's side in three or two steps, knelt on the ground, and threw myself at Uncle Li, and if I continued to stalemate like this, the biggest loss would definitely be me, the young man who crossed over, anyway, Uncle Li, since we all have the courage to tell Uncle Li, if we don't stand up now, will we still be a man who dares to take responsibility?
"Guilty? What's wrong with you stinky boy? Well, say it slowly, don't worry, the old man is very leisurely today. In this way, you can tell me when you two met for the first time, "Uncle Li seems to have come here specially today, looking at me with a smile, his eyes are very kind, and his expression is kind, but every time he blinks his eyes, it seems like a lightning bolt is about to burst out and scorch me.
Uncle Li didn't ask about it, but as soon as she asked, Liushuang immediately looked like someone had taken a red pen and made a close-up of splashing ink on her pretty face, red and transparent, and looked ashamed and angry.
Uncle Li touched his chin, his expression was very confused, as if he was confused by the exaggerated expression shown by the moment of Liushuang. Seeing the embarrassment on my face, Uncle Li couldn't wait to say, "Say!" How did you first meet? "The old rascal's thirst for gossip seems to have reached its peak, and the fire of gossip burned in Uncle Lee's chest, and I even smelled a smell of barbecue.
