Chapter 213: Father and daughter meet
Night fell, outside the Changming Palace.
A woman in palace clothes knelt on the cold steps, and the eunuch and the black feather guard on the side watched like this, no one stepped forward to persuade her, and no one handed her a futon.
She is the biological mother of the Four Princes, Wan Concubine.
She had been kneeling here for an hour, but Emperor Yongxi just didn't see her.
"Concubine Wanniang, Your Majesty said, I won't see you today, you better go back." Dressed in a green eunuch robe and wearing a mink fur, the eunuch Qixi walked all the way from the main hall, bent down, and whispered.
"That's also His Majesty's son, his son is missing, is he really not concerned at all?" The woman in the palace costume knelt there and said without moving.
She could endure the emperor's neglect, she could endure being abused and bullied, but she could not remain indifferent to her son's disappearance.
"Niangniang, Your Majesty has already arranged for someone to search for you, even if you see Your Majesty?" Qixi sighed.
"I just want to see Your Majesty and ask him a word." Concubine Wan raised her head slowly, and said with a resolute look in her eyes.
"What do you have to say, just hand it in for you?"
"You're not qualified."
Qixi was choked, in the end, he was a eunuch, a royal slave, this concubine was also a concubine, the prince's biological mother, and his master, so it was not a big mistake to be said so.
But in my heart, it's still very uncomfortable.
"Your Majesty has a will, if Concubine Wan wants to kneel, then kneel!" Qixi raised his head, straightened his waist, and shouted at the top of his voice!
Emperor Yongxi's temperament is that he doesn't like to be coerced the most, if the other party is really so capable, he will admit it, but if the other party is not capable at all, he will never compromise.
This is a typical bullying of the weak and afraid of the hard.
It's just that I pity this concubine.
……
"Qingyi, do you know where Brother Duan's family lives?" Luo Xing asked, although he is good friends with Duan Tieniu, he really doesn't know where his home is?
"Congshanfang."
"Okay, come, take the handle, send the people back." Luo Xing nodded, as long as he knew where to live, he greeted.
This drunken person's body is very heavy, especially this big head, if it is an ordinary person, he really can't carry this iron bull.
With an iron bull on his back, he pushed open the door and walked out.
"I'm going to drive?"
"Okay, you don't drink less than him, so I'll do it." Luo Xing took the horsewhip and said.
Qingyi didn't fight with him, sat on the other side, Luo Xing waved his horsewhip, pulled the reins, and drank "drive". The two drove the carriage in the direction of Shanfang.
Duan Tieniu's wife is in her early thirties, her appearance is above average, and although she doesn't have to worry about eating and drinking at home, the cost of practicing martial arts is still not small.
Therefore, the clothes of his wife and children are also very ordinary, that is, they are cleaner than ordinary people, and there are no patches visible.
I can't afford to use a maid, a family of three, living in a small yard less than 150 meters away, and the ancestral property has long been sold.
It's all because the descendants are not angry, and they can't keep this property.
After his father died on the battlefield, although he gave a large pension, his mother fell ill later, and he spent a lot of money on the funeral after his death.
The father's pension is almost gone.
Although Duan Tieniu's income is not bad, it is not easy to support a family, and the child has reached the age of entering school, and the cost has also increased.
The Duan family is a family of military generals, although it has declined, it is inevitable to practice martial arts, and the medicinal herbs needed to polish his muscles and bones since he was a child is a large expense, and he still has to cultivate......
Anyway, a large family is barely enough, but there is not much money left.
"Sister-in-law, Brother Duan is happy today, I drank two more glasses, and we sent him back to you." Luo Xing explained with Duan Tieniu on his back.
"Come in."
put Duan Tieniu on the bed and lay down, the lady of the Duan family brought hot water to the two, and Luo Xing and Qingyi took it after thanking them.
"Sister-in-law, it's the first time we're here, we haven't prepared much, it's rude, a little heart, you accept it." Luo Xing directly took out ten golden tickets worth one hundred taels of silver from his arms and stuffed them into the hands of the Duan family's lady, "Don't tell Brother Duan, this is for you and the child, and it has nothing to do with him." ”
"This can't be accepted, Tie Niu knows it, so he will scold me to death." The lady of the Duan family refused, "His temper just can't stand the favor of others." ”
"Sister-in-law, am I someone else, I am a brother to Brother Duan, I'm an uncle, the first time I came to the house, why don't you give the child a little meeting gift?" Luo Xing pushed back again, "It's just that I didn't prepare today, and I don't know what the child likes, so it's the only way." ”
"This ......"
"Sister-in-law, just take it, Brother Duan won't blame you." Qingyi also followed to help, and she could also see that Duan Tieniu was a straight-hearted, true temperamental person, this kind of person could be acquainted.
The lady of the Duan family couldn't resist the two, and finally accepted the silver ticket.
……
"How did you remember to give money?" Saying goodbye and returning to the carriage, Qingyi asked with some incomprehension.
"I can see that Brother Duan is really moving, if he comes to Nanya, I am afraid that the salary will not be as good as in the True Martial Academy, at least for now, so I will take this opportunity to avoid his worries first." Roshing explained.
"It's the same, if you wait for him to enter Nanya, and then make up for it, with his temper, he will definitely not want to ask for it." Qingyi nodded.
"You say, Brother Duan really wants to come to Nanya, if he can directly grant the position of school captain, will it be more beneficial to my current situation?" Luo Xing asked.
"Are you worried about that Su Rui?"
"Su Rui, I'm not worried, but in the Special Investigation Division, I am indeed a little lonely, but I can't pull Brother Duan into the pit, wouldn't that go against the original intention of making friends." Luo Xing said, "It's up to him to choose." ”
Leaving Congshanfang, the carriage drove into a dark alleyway.
Sigh!
Roshing grabbed the reins and stopped the carriage.
"Friend, you've followed all the way, will you come out?" Luo Xing said.
A figure approached from behind, and finally crossed the carriage and landed in front of him, and when he fixed his eyes, it was a man dressed in an indigo warrior suit.
It's not very old, and his appearance is a little ordinary, and when he is thrown in the crowd, he is probably the kind that he can't recognize at a glance.
There is no hostility, Luo Xing, who cultivates spiritual paths, can naturally feel it.
This is one of the benefits of spiritual practice, at least you can quickly identify whether the other person is an enemy or not, and give yourself time to prepare.
"True Martial Academy, Wen Zhaonian has seen General Qinglang and Captain Luo!"
"You know us?" Luo Xing's heart moved, he didn't go to look for this Wen Zhaonian, he came to the door by himself first, a little interesting, and asked quietly at the moment.
"General Qinglang and Captain Luo pulled up a banner in the dining room of the Zhenwu Academy today to recruit people for Nanya, and Zhao Nian was actually by his side the whole time."
"Oh, what's the matter?"
"Zhao Nian wants to join Nanya."
"Brother Wen wants to join Nanya, he can directly take the written test with his life, and he doesn't need to follow his car at night?" Luo Xing said lightly.
"I don't want to waste time, so I want to ask a quasi-letter?"
"I can't ignore the rules I set, if you can pass the written test and interview, you can naturally join, why bother?"
"How can I only know the fairness of the written test and interview, and what will I do when I join Nanya, I can't be asked to serve tea and water, and I will also go to clean up, Nanya is not another yamen, if you enter, it will be difficult to exit." Wen Zhaonian said.
"There is some truth in what you said, I will answer your question, the written test is my pick, in line with the standards of Nanya, stay, enter the interview, this can not be said to be absolutely fair, but relatively certainly fair, because I don't know who you are, you can't commit favoritism, the people recruited are not qualified, I have to take responsibility, interview, that is a two-way choice, I can choose you, or reject you, but refusal will definitely give you a reason, as for what to do in Nanya, we spent so much effort to recruit you in, Just to recruit people to serve tea, water, and cleaning, do you think Nanya's salary is so easy to get? Luo Xing said with a smile.
"Do you recruit women?"
"Does the new brochure only recruit men?"
"If I pass the written test and interview, can I make a request?" Wen Zhaonian asked.
"I'll talk about it when you're done." Luo Xing drove past him in a carriage, "Also, don't follow, if I had thought you were a villain just now, you would have been lying down by now." ”
……
"It seems that the start is good, at least this Wen Zhaonian will definitely go to the written test." Qingyi said happily, "Can you tell me about the twenty questions you came up with in the written test." ”
"I haven't figured it out yet, go back and talk about it." Luo Xing haha.
As soon as I returned home, I noticed a familiar aura, Master Meng Yi came.
"Master, you don't come and say anything in advance, Qingyi and I are not at home." Luo Xing didn't complain that Meng Yilai would expose Xue Shangxiang's secrets when he came to the house, he could understand the mood of a father who suddenly knew that he had a daughter.
"It's okay, I just came to have a look, I didn't meet her." At this moment, Meng Yi is very much like an old man who is afraid of disturbing his children's lives.
"People are here, why don't they see?" Luo Xing asked in surprise.
"I'm afraid she won't be able to accept ...... at once"
"Master, you are thinking too much, Miss Xue is not a child, I see that after she arrived here, she has no resistance, she is very adaptable, so you really don't need to worry about this." Luo Xing analyzed.
"Can she take it?"
"Are you sure that this Xue girl is your daughter, this is very important, don't make a fuss, it's a joke." Luo Xing Road.
"Yes." Meng Yi said affirmatively, "The first time I saw her, I had a mysterious and mysterious feeling, that feeling of blood connection. ”
"Master, as long as you are sure, then we will see, make the statement clear, and make it clear." Luo Xing said, "You may not be good for her like this. ”
"Okay, I'll listen to you this time as a teacher." Meng Yi seemed to have made up his mind, and his hand clenched involuntarily.
