Chapter 52 Father and Son
Qixian Lou Wendou came to a perfect end.
The next day, the relevant romance spread throughout the Hindu, and became the talk of the streets, so the famous talent was also affectionate by all parties, and his future was open from then on.
The next day, even the National Teacher Prison began to talk about comments. Qixian Lou has a building Xianqi, how to link it; The amazing words of the talented man called so-and-so, how to do it; Who's who's who's pro-recruitment, the fish leaps over the dragon gate, how how; There are also newly born geisha, who are astonishing, and who is recruited as a guest of the curtain, and how......
"Cautionary Message......
In the Chongming Hall, the man sat on the main seat, half-tilted, and supported his cheeks with his hands. He held a volume of articles in his hand, glanced at it a few times, and commented softly, "Talking about old tunes, nothing new, not very capable, not small...... rubbish." With that, he threw the article into the brazier. The spark splashed open and burned violently.
"I heard that you were also in Qixian Tower the day before yesterday, is there such a thing?"
"Yes, Erchen did go to see Wendou."
Heungmin hurriedly agreed, hanging his head, a layer of sweat on his forehead. There were only two people in the room, but when there was silence, except for the sound of charcoal burning on the stove, it was quiet and suffocating.
"With your new acquaintance?"
"Yes."
"What's it called? Well, you mentioned it in the last concerto, hiss......" The man nodded his forehead with his fingers, trying to remember, but he couldn't remember for a while, "The surname is Wen, the smell ......, what is it?" β
Xingmin hurriedly said, "Back to my father, Wu, surname Wen, name Wu." β
"Oh! Yes, Wenwu, Wenwu, oops, I'm old and I don't have a good memory. β
Xingli raised his forehead, said this, but his expression was very casual, and he said casually: "This surname is rare in my Daxing Dynasty, I remember, how many years ago?" I remember that in the past, the governor of Taiming Mansion was also a surname Wen? Remember correctly, right? It's a coincidence to say, this Wenwu seems to be from Taiming Mansion, right? β
Xingmin didn't look up, but he was secretly shocked in his heart, and replied truthfully: "Father remembered correctly, the previous Taiming Mansion Yin was indeed surnamed Wen, and Wen Wu was indeed from Taiming Mansion. β
"Hmm."
He shook his head excitedly and hummed, his voice was neither salty nor light.
Heungmin didn't dare to speak, but his brain was racing. These few lines of dialogue seem ordinary and simple, but they imply multiple layers of meaning, not only Xingli is implying that he knows his every move, but the subtext also shows that he has checked and heard the details. Because of this, Xingmin is puzzled, theoretically, the existence of Wenwu will not make Xingli so concerned.
Sure enough, Xingli's next words were more direct, "I heard that he lived in your Weiming Garden?" β
"Yes."
"I also heard that Tianju visited Weiming Garden a few days ago, but is there such a thing?"
"Yes, there are also temples that go with you."
"Why didn't you see you?"
"Father, you went to Xingbeiying the day before yesterday......" Xingmin wanted to speak and stopped.
"Hey! Tsk, look at my brain......" happily patted the armrest, suddenly realized, and shook his head again and again.
"Ahem."
Xingmin coughed dryly, didn't dare to slack off, and quickly explained: "Father, the son did not mean to conceal it, since he arrived in Xingdu, the son arranged for Wen Wu to live in Weiming Garden temporarily, but it was just ......"
"I know, I'm not blaming you." Xingli raised his hand to interrupt him, and said slowly: "I only thought of it temporarily, and I remembered such a person, so I asked such a question." β
Heungmin bowed his head and didn't speak. Although he is a father and son, he is also a monarch and a minister, he is well versed in the way of getting along with Xingli, what words have to be received, what words can be listened to, this is the basic etiquette.
Xingli didn't pause for long, and then asked, "Xuanli Immortal Master, are you going to see you, or is it to see him?" β
"See, hear, and understand."
"Oh." Xingli nodded, not surprised, "What's the matter?" β
"Uh......, Xuanli Immortal Master wants to take Wen Wu as an apprentice." Xingmin paused, or honestly confessed.
"Oh?"
Xingli's brows curled, and his expression changed greatly for the first time.
Xingmin held his breath and didn't dare to speak,
Xingli asked again: "Does anyone else know about this?" β
"Qu Hong Sacrificial Wine may also know, but other than that, there should be none."
"Ah, by the way, he's still Qu Hong's student, right?"
"Yes."
"Hmmm......"
Xingli nodded slightly, knocked his fingers on the armrest a few times, pondered for a moment, and said meaningfully: "This matter, don't make a noise for the time being, let the Xuanli Immortal Master handle it himself." β
"Erchen also has this intention."
"Hmm."
Leaning to the side slightly, Xingli changed his posture, picked up the teacup with one hand and took a sip, the topic changed, and his tone was slightly soft, "What about you?" It's been a few days, how do you feel? β
Xingmin was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Father Xie cares, and everything is fine with his sons." β
"There are no outsiders here, so don't see outsiders like this."
"Uh, yes, son......"
"When was the last time we talked like this?" Xingli suddenly asked.
"Five years and eight months ago, the night before Erchen left Hindu." Heungmin bowed his head and replied.
"You remember." From the chat to this point, Xingli smiled for the first time, but the next sentence made Xingmin shocked, "Are you still complaining about your father?" β
Xingmin trembled and hurriedly knelt down, "Erchen doesn't dare!" β
"Oh, alasβ" Xingli sang a long breath, and then raised his hand and waved it a few times, "Get up, get up, there are no outsiders here, who are you kneeling to?" Get up, get up. β
"Father Xie......" Xingmin paused before daring to get up.
"I know that you have suffered a lot of grievances in the past few years, and I know, including the dangers you encountered on the way back to the DPRK this time, I know all about it, it is normal for you to be wary, well, you should have been wary a long time ago." Heungmin's body didn't seem to be very good, he was slightly crooked, and he supported his upper body with his elbows, "Father promised you, this matter will definitely give you an explanation." β
"The sons and daughters don't dare, it's all up to their father."
"Well, hey, let's not talk about this, let's talk about your affairs in Linhai Mansion in the past few years, I have been in contact with each other before, but I don't know the details, I want to hear you tell me in person."
"Yes......"
Heungmin nodded in agreement, then pondered his words and began to tell the story of what happened after leaving Hindu for Linhai Province five years ago.
Xingli listened while drinking tea, although he didn't talk much, but occasionally picked out some interesting questions and interjected a few sentences, so as to skillfully guide the topic to the part he wanted to know.
As Xingmin spoke, his mood gradually relaxed, and he expressed his opinions more.
Who knows, this conversation is half an hour.
Bells, bells.
There was the sound of a bell ringing outside.
Xingmin was still unsatisfied, but when he saw the leakage, he suddenly found that it was already the hour, and he couldn't help but secretly scream badly. looked up at Xingli, but saw him leisurely drinking tea, which was relieved.
"It seems that in the past few years, you have done a lot of things in Linhai Mansion."
"The father handed over the Linhai Mansion to his sons, and the sons should do their best and dare not slack off. It's just that Erchen has been in Linhai Mansion for five years, but he has not made any achievements, which is really ashamed. β
"Don't be presumptuous, although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I still know the changes in Linhai Mansion in recent years, and the chapter will lie, but the household checks, taxes and annual tributes paid every year will not."
"Erchen ......"
"Okay, don't talk about the scene anymore, you're not tired, I'm tired when I listen to it." Xingli waved his hand in annoyance.
"Yes......"
Heungmin had to shut up.
Xingli was silent for a while, and then said: "I have read the reform chapter you submitted a few days ago, well, there is some progress, but it is still not comprehensive enough, you go back and think about it again." β
Xingmin hesitated for a moment, and raised his head rarely, "Erchen is stupid, I really can't think of anything missing, and I hope that my father will make it clear." β
Xingli looked at him until he couldn't resist and lowered his head again, then he sighed in disappointment, "Ahh
Heungmin hurriedly got up.
Xingli raised his hand to signal that it was okay, and then walked straight to him, looking at his eyes with both a little relief and a little helplessness, "Min'er, actually, your idea is very good......
Xingmin stood solemnly and did not dare to answer.
Xingli patted him on the shoulder, "It's just that the time hasn't come." With that, he walked out and ended the conversation, "Let's go, go see how your little friend is doing." β
"Yes!"
Xingmin hurriedly followed, but he was still a little confused in his mind, only echoing the four words that had just passed his ears, and the time had not yet come.
Knort.
The doors were wide open.
Outside, dozens of people have been guarding for most of the hour in the bitter cold of winter. On the other side, in the school hall of the National Teacher's Prison, thousands of students were gathered.
Today is the day of the pharmacy examination.
