Chapter 596: Another Thought
In the Chu Mansion, Chu Hang personally went to the gate to greet Yi Shuyuan, although he was already old, but at this moment he was walking like flying.
When he arrived near the gate of the front yard, Chu Hang immediately ordered someone to open the door.
"Hurry up, open the front door to welcome guests!"
"Yes!"
How dare the accompanying family members be a little lazy, as soon as they see the attitude of their master, they know that the guests outside are not ordinary, and they are not the heirs of the deceased.
The three of Yi Shuyuan outside the door had already sensed the situation inside.
As the door of the Chu Mansion slowly opened in a "squeak" sound, Chu Hang also saw the people standing outside, at this moment, his face was even more surprised, and he couldn't help but complain to the others.
"You only said that Mr. Yi is here, why don't you say that Old Heavenly Master Qi and Mai Daxia are also here?"
Qi Old Heavenly Master?
The concierge was taken aback, but before they could say anything, Chu Hang had already taken the first step to greet them.
Yi Shuyuan's smiling voice had already reached the door.
"Lord Chu, I haven't seen you for many years, don't come here to be harmed?"
"Mr. Yi, Old Heavenly Master Qi, and Mai Daxia, I haven't seen you for a long time!"
Chu Hang was dressed in a simple and simple Confucian shirt, facing the wind at the door, his figure was still upright in the eyes of art, and his beard was fluttering, as if he saw the trees in the mountains and the scholars who traveled in the mountains together.
"Chu Xiang!" "Lord Chu!"
Qi Zhongbin and Mai Lingfei also saluted Chu Hang together, one exuding a smile from the bottom of his heart, and the other with some nervousness and embarrassment.
"Please come in!"
"Please!"
Yi Shuyuan and the others followed Chu Hang into the mansion, but saw a child running out with a net fart.
"Grandpa, you said you were going to play with me, you are not allowed to run-"
The child ran so fast that the maid behind him couldn't catch up at all, and when he caught up, he ran to the child again and again with apologies, grabbed him and whispered in his ear, and then carried him away.
This scene also made Yi Shuyuan and the others smile, including the gray Mian standing on his shoulder, and the child saw the gray Mian, and a pair of eyes suddenly widened, pointing at Yi Shuyuan's shoulder and shouting.
"Ermine, mink, there is a mink!"
The screaming child was still carried away by the maid.
Everyone entered the Chu Mansion in an atmosphere of laughter, and then went to the living room to talk about the past.
The subordinates of the Chu Mansion were also busy for a long time, discussing the matters of hospitality.
Outside the living room, the person who delivered the pastries and tea had just come out with a tray, and was surrounded by some family members, and everyone was asking curiously and excitedly.
"Alas, do you see clearly?" "Yes, is it the Heavenly Master?"
It was also the old family of Chu Mansion who came out, and he was obviously very excited.
"I can see it clearly, the immortal wind is the old Heavenly Master Qi, can the old master admit his mistake?"
"How many Heavenly Masters does our Dayong Dynasty have?" "What nonsense are you talking about, of course there is only Qi Old Heavenly Master!"
"Yes, back then, the entire Chengtian Mansion was discussing the matter of the Heavenly Master, but I didn't expect him to be alive!"
"Hey, what are you talking about?"
"Bah, bah, it's a gaffe!"
"This old Heavenly Master has to be one hundred and thirty or forty years old now, right?"
"I'm afraid it's more than that!"
"Oh, this is a living immortal."
The family members of the Chu Mansion discussed eagerly, and then they were sent to work by the housekeeper, and today's Chu Mansion seems to have become extraordinarily energetic.
In the living room, Yi Shuyuan seemed to hear the discussion outside, and said something jokingly.
"No one knows who Yi Shuyuan is, and no one cares about Mai Lingfei, the number one master in the world, or Zhong Bin's name is familiar!"
"Master, don't make fun of me."
Qi Zhongbin couldn't laugh or cry, although this is also human nature, but he didn't expect that the popularity of Dayong Old Heavenly Master has not completely passed for so many years.
"Today, I know that the Old Heavenly Master turned out to be Mr. Yi's disciple, and it is no wonder that the Old Heavenly Master has such a way and such an achievement, Chu should have thought of it a long time ago."
The "nightmare" in the early years, as well as a series of later events, made Chu Hang understand that Mr. Yi was not an extraordinary person, but he didn't expect that the Heavenly Master would be Mr. Yi's apprentice, but many things make sense.
The content of the chat between several people from the original Yuanjiang County to the later Lingdong disaster, as well as the changes in Dayong over the years, many things make people feel nostalgic and many things are embarrassing.
Mai Lingfei had always been very nervous, and he was ready to be questioned, with three points of self-encouragement in his heart, but Chu Hang never mentioned anything sensitive.
After chatting for a while, Chu Hang actually paid more attention to Mai Lingfei's expression and movements.
This prospective son-in-law, who is not younger than Chu Hang himself in appearance, must be false if he has never complained, but if he really says how much he hates, it can't be counted, after so many years, many things have been seen, and the rest is some memories and regrets.
"Mai Daxia, Qi'er has always been afraid of me, right?"
Strictly speaking, Chu Qi and Mai Lingfei are considered elopements, and the family style of the Chu family is also strict, which Chu Hang can be regarded as like Chu Qinglin when he is older.
So Chu Qi was actually very afraid of his father, and for many years he only dared to send letters back to his mother.
But each of these letters was read by the Chu family and his wife, after all, blood is thicker than water, how can it be said that it will be broken, Chu Hang also rebelled when he was young, in fact, he can still understand some daughters.
Hearing this at this moment, he looked up at Chu Hang, opened his mouth but did not speak immediately, and only spoke after a while.
"Qi'er, she has always respected you very much, and she misses Mrs. Chu very much."
"Alas, it would have been nice if I had let you get married in Chengtian Mansion back then."
Chu Hang sighed and said this, which can be regarded as a reconciliation with Ah Fei.
Ah Fei couldn't help but ask at this moment.
"Master Chu, what difficulties do you have now, although I, Mai Lingfei, am not a great character, but I still have some skills to use, and I can also have some appeal in the rivers and lakes, and I can have some colleagues who are willing to respond."
The meaning of Mai Lingfei's words is already obvious, he is willing to re-emerge for Chu Hang, and the rivers and lakes in the realm of Dayong and Dayan were also bloody because of him, just with the three words "Mai Lingfei", no one in the martial arts in the world dares not to pay attention to it.
Chu Hang may have heard too many of these words when countless people were talking to each other, but in Ah Fei's case, this sentence is not insignificant.
"Hehehe, I, Chu Hang, am not a great character, so there is no need for Mai Daxia to do this."
"But you're Qi'er's father! You are also the pillar of Dayong! ”
Yi Shuyuan held a folding fan and slowly fanned it, while Qi Zhongbin put down the teacup and shook his head.
"Is there everlasting in all things? The old ministers of the three dynasties of Chu Xiang are high and powerful, and now His Majesty is not the first time to ascend the throne, but also the time for a son of heaven and a courtier. ”
"Just as the Heavenly Master said!"
Chu Hang could also see it, and even jokingly looked at Yi Shuyuan and the three of them to say more.
"Oh, it's a pity, it's still not decisive enough, I knew that I should have returned to my hometown a few years earlier, I always thought that my old bones still had a little energy, and I could contribute a few more years to the society, and it was delayed after coming and going."
Yi Shuyuan's folding fan fanned slightly, looking at Chu Hang's face, it seemed that he could also see a bit of crystalline in his eyes.
"Dayong, Dayong, old relatives, old relatives."
Chu Hang said it easily, but he was still a little sentimental in his heart, and he was also guilty of his relatives, perhaps because of this guilt, he couldn't hate Ah Fei.
Outside the imperial study of the palace, Tan Yuanshang walked out of it after retiring, and when the cool breeze blew outside, he took a deep breath before leaving.
Out of the palace, Pei Changtian and the Tan family guards who were waiting surrounded him, but Tan Yuanshang didn't say anything, got into the carriage first, and then drove away to the temporary residence to rest.
In the noise of the rolling wheels, Pei Changtian in the car couldn't help it after all.
"Gong Tan, how is the situation, what did you and Your Majesty say?"
Tan Yuanshang glanced at Pei Changtian, this Jianghu guest, who was much younger than him, looked like his father in the car.
"Your Majesty didn't say anything."
"Huh?"
Pei Changtian frowned, as if he didn't understand the meaning of this sentence.
Tan Yuanshang sighed.
"I chatted with His Majesty in the imperial study for two hours, talking about interesting things, and naturally involved some government affairs, but Your Majesty didn't mention Chu Xiang once."
Pei Changtian frowned, shouldn't this be what Tan Gong took the initiative to say, but just as he wanted to speak, his heart suddenly moved, and his face showed a sudden look.
Tan Yuanshang nodded, Pei Changtian was still relatively keen.
"If Your Majesty really had a heart, this matter would definitely be mentioned, but Your Majesty didn't mention Chu Xiang once, and even ordinary small talk didn't involve it, Your Majesty has already shown it very obviously!"
Pei Changtian couldn't help but slowly clench his fists.
"Don't be alarmed, Gang Master Pei, with me, I won't let things go too far, at least I can protect the safety of Chu Xiang himself and his family!"
"Okay, go home and rest, and visit Chu Xiang tomorrow."
Pei Changtian was stunned for a moment.
"Wouldn't that be too deliberate?"
Tan Yuanshang smiled, Pei Changtian is a smart person, but this will seem to be a little concerned and messed up.
"I, Tan Yuansheng, came to Chengtianfu, it is already the most deliberate thing!"
In the imperial study, after Tan Yuanshang left, the emperor looked at the direction he left and squinted slightly and was silent for a long time.
"Apart from Tan Yuansheng, who else has come to Chengtian Mansion?"
"Old slave, let's check!"
The Emperor nodded, and then returned to the imperial case again, but after grabbing the pen, it did not fall for a long time, and after a while, he suddenly looked up.
"Someone is coming, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, the Yin of Chengtianfu, the Dali Temple, and the Imperial History!"
The old eunuch on the side was taken aback, but he immediately took the order and retreated.
"Yes!"
Maybe it was Tan Yuansheng's arrival that made the emperor make some determination, or maybe it was because Tan Yuansheng's arrival made the emperor think of other things.
