Chapter 190, Are you planning to split up all the time?
Her master Xiao Rongqi, although he is over forty years old, is still personable and gentle, and he always thinks about his apprentice. It is difficult for people to associate him with the fame and fortune of the imperial court.
In fact, when he came, Yu Qingwu still had some thoughts in his heart.
I thought that there might be some misunderstanding in this. After all, the master loved her as his own daughter and would not be willing to give her as a concubine, let alone treat her as a chess piece.
However, at this moment, when the master asked this question, the last glimmer of hope in her heart was suddenly shattered.
A trace of ridicule flashed across the corner of his mouth. Yu Qingwu's posture was upright and respectful as always. He solemnly replied to Xiao Rongqi, "It's okay. My disciple always has such a cold face. Master knows it."
"Uh, that's right. You kid never likes to smile." Xiao Rongqi nodded, his eyes full of kindness, then looked at Xie Jinyan aside and asked, "What about you? Why do you have such a somber face?"
After all, it was a matter between the couple. Even though Master Xiao Rongqi was half a matchmaker, Xie Jinyan still didn't want to tell anyone about the emotional entanglement between the two.
He curled his lips, pulled out a forced smile, and responded in a low voice, "Master, my disciple is just worried about the affairs of the court. You also know that because of my disciple's life experience, many ministers in the court have no regard for me.
I'm so dissatisfied, even if I'm willing to support Xie Qiyun and other rotten trees, they don't want to be with me."
"It's really hard for my disciple in the court. Recently, he was reprimanded by his father because of the disaster and the Yunzhou Bandits. That was clearly Xie Qiyun's fault. Xie Qiyun couldn't do it. My father was partial to him, so he used his disciple to do it.
Take off your steam, my disciple is really depressed."
Xie Jinyan rambled on and on, then changed his subject calmly.
Xiao Rongqi always knew about his situation in the court. Hearing what he said, he had no doubts. He just nodded slightly and said in a persuasive tone, "Jin Yan, your father is the lord of the world, and some things are not necessarily what he wants."
Yes, after all, your eldest brother has the You family and the Liu family's civil servants behind him. Your father may have had no choice but to do so. Father and son have no overnight feud, so don't let this create a barrier with him."
"Master, don't worry, my disciple is not that stingy." Xie Jinyan nodded, and as he said that, he took out a brocade box from his arms, presented it to Xiao Rongqi with great respect, and said, "By the way, master, this is what my mother dragged me to bring.
Your gift is a thank-you gift for taking care of me and saying that I have troubled you again in the recent days."
"Your mother, you are still so polite." Xiao Rongqi's eyes flashed with an imperceptible tenderness, and then he took the brocade box, glanced at it, raised his head again, his eyes returned to their usual kindness, and he sighed helplessly, "The brocade box
Banquet, ask your mother not to prepare gifts next time. I am your teacher. It is the duty of a master to take care of his disciples. Your mother is always so polite, but it makes it seem like you are a teacher just for this gift.
Similar."
For this gift?
That's not to say it's just for fame, wealth and power.
Xie Jinyan was thinking in his heart, but his face was still respectful. He smiled back at Xiao Rongqi and said, "Whatever Master said, this is not a valuable thing at all. It is just the wishes of the father and mother."
"By the way, Master, this time I go up the mountain, I still have something to ask of Master."
Closer to home, Xie Jinyan did not forget the purpose of his trip.
The smile in his eyebrows gradually faded, and there was a hint of seriousness in his eyes. He gently cupped his hands to the master sitting on the seat and said, "Master, I would like to ask the master to recommend someone."
"Master also knows that there was a snowstorm at the end of last year, and farmers had almost no harvest. Now it is impossible to rely on charity alone. We are also afraid of drought, floods, and snowstorms in the coming year, especially in border areas, where refugees flock in every year.
Kyoto, it’s even worse this year. You also know that it only took more than ten years for the Wei Dynasty to stabilize the country after the Qi family’s rebellion, and now the national treasury is not rich."
"My disciple heard that the Nong clan still has descendants, and they have many crops suitable for planting in various places. In addition, there are many farming methods to increase production. In fact, my father also sent people
I have explored it, but the other party was unwilling to come out because of some issues with the Wei Dynasty."
"I wonder, Master, if you can be a lobbyist?"
Xie Jinyan didn't beat around the bush and explained the whole story in a short and clear way.
This seems to be a request, but it is actually a transaction.
I think that when his father and mother sent him to the Xiao Clan, they also took a fancy to the Xiao family's connections in the world.
Some people that the royal family couldn't hire were willing to sell Xiao's face. Some things that the royal family couldn't find, Xiao was able to find from common people or beggars on the street.
Xiao Rong Qiyuan also reached a tacit agreement with the royal family, so naturally he would not refuse Xie Jinyan's request. He smiled lightly, nodded slightly, and responded kindly, "You kid, if you don't ask for anything, why should you be a teacher?"
As for things like this, as a citizen of the Wei Dynasty, I, as a citizen of the Wei Dynasty, should do my part to benefit the people all over the world. Don't worry, after a few days, the head of the Nong family will come back, and I will invite him over.
"
"As for the past few days, you are tired from traveling. You should rest for a few days first. We will talk about the rest later."
"Okay, let's go down and rest first. Tonight, I will ask Ning Yu to prepare a reception banquet for you." After saying that, Xiao Rongqi waved his hands and said with a slightly tired look, "Okay, I also want to be a teacher.
It’s lunch break, you should go back too.”
With that said, he stood up.
Looking at the master's figure, Yu Qingwu moved his lips, wanting to ask something, but finally closed his mouth.
Perhaps she lacked the courage, or perhaps she was afraid that she would not be able to accept it. In the end, she just nodded and replied to Xiao Rongqi as respectfully as ever, "Master, I will leave first."
"Okay, have a good rest." Xiao Rongqi nodded. When he walked to Yu Qingwu's side, he patted her shoulder gently and said warmly, "Qingwu, when you return to the master's school, you are back to your own home. Be more casual and don't have to do that.
Be as restrained as possible and relax."
Is the master telling her that she doesn't have to be as restrained in the master's school as she does in the prince's residence?
They were clearly caring words, but they made Yu Qingwu's mood become more complicated. She bit her lip tightly, nodded lightly, and said no more.
In a moment of confusion, Master Xiao Rongqi had already stepped into the inner room.
For a moment, only Yu Qingwu and Xie Jinyan were left in the hall.
She raised her head, glanced at him with mixed emotions, turned around and walked out.
"Yu Qingwu, do you plan to live in Hu Die's house forever? Do you plan to share a room with me forever?" Yu Qingwu lowered his head, and just as he stepped out of the threshold, Xie Jinyan's voice came from behind.
She paused slightly and didn't answer.
The next moment, a big hand fell on her shoulder.
Xie Jinyan's deep voice hit his ears with the warm breath, and he asked, "You don't let me bring a servant, and now you leave me alone in the guest room. Why do you want me to make the bed myself?" This chapter has been completed!
