Chapter 18: The Royal Children Are Tied! Dissatisfied? You Bite Me, My Son
In the hall, a young man in brocade clothes was sitting upright, holding a cup of tea and making a sketch in a serious manner, looking quite mature.
Xie Yuan slowly put down the tea cup: "The prince has come thousands of miles to visit this humble abode. I don't know why?"
Prince Pengcheng also put down his tea cup and looked at Xie Yuan: "Mr. Xie Yuan has a reputation far and wide. I am here this time. I would like to ask him to come out on behalf of my father and assist me and my son to achieve great things."
"Your Highness, ordinary people have only done some good deeds, and are not virtuous and famous people." Xie Yuan lowered his eyes and bowed.
"I don't think so. The young gentleman has a hidden light in his eyes and a restrained edge. You can tell at a glance that he is a man who understands the general situation." Prince Pengcheng smiled slightly and clapped his hands, "The young gentleman was born in a poor family. He must want to be rich and prosperous.
, let’s return home in fine clothes.”
The attendants next to him opened several boxes brought from the mountain one by one. Inside were all gold and jewelry.
There is only one box full of ancient books.
"In the early years, when my late mother was around, the common people really thought about glory and wealth. But now that my late mother has passed away, the common people just want to stay in this corner, farm, and have a few disciples to pass on letters." Xie Yuan was unmoved and lowered his eyes again.
Make a bow.
Seeing Xie Yuan's polite refusal, Prince Pengcheng was not angry.
All this was as he expected.
After hearing about Xie Yuan's deeds, he intuitively told him that this Xie Yuan was capable of achieving great things.
He then wanted to persuade Xie Yuan to come out of the mountain.
But his father told him that Xie Yuan is a stubborn ass, and he will not accept any bullshit you tell him.
He just didn't believe it. Nothing could impress this young gentleman.
The Prince of Pengcheng chatted with Xie Yuan again, and tried to ask him to become an official, but Xie Yuan refused.
"In that case, I'll come back to visit you another day." The young prince was not discouraged, and walked away with a few boxes with a smile.
After seeing off the giant Buddha, Xie Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Huo Qubing came back from the mountain to inspect the growth of the crops. He happened to see this scene, so he stepped forward and bowed and asked: "My lord, that young gentleman looks at the wealth and wealth. I wonder which family he belongs to?"
"He is the prince of Pengcheng, and he wants to invite me to become an official." Xie Yuan said warmly.
Huo Qubing was silent.
One King Pengcheng left, and another Prince Pengcheng's son came. The father and son soldiers took turns going into battle.
"Xiaoyuan has great ambitions, why don't he go out and become an official?" Qi Yan came up and asked.
On the day Xie Yuan took him in, he asked Xie Yuan why he wanted to open an academy and recruit disciples.
Xie Yuan said that he wanted to add a touch of color to this troubled world.
He wants to bring up a few sober people in this world.
"If we have different ways, we can't work together." Xie Yuan shook his head slightly.
He knew what King Pengcheng was thinking - King Pengcheng was ambitious but had a narrow vision. Even if he assisted him in achieving great things, he would still follow Gou Jian's footsteps.
The cunning rabbit dies and the running dog is cooked.
Cooperating with such people is simply fighting against a tiger——
One wrong move will lead to eternal disaster.
He just wants to live quietly in this troubled world, he doesn't want to take risks.
"What the young gentleman is saying is that King Pengcheng has evil intentions. If you want to avoid causing trouble, you should have less contact with them." Lu Zhong came over holding several volumes of ancient books and lightly interjected.
Qi Yan turned over and saw Lu Zhong, his eyes dimmed slightly.
The descendants of the Lu family...
"Hasn't Shaohan been in the library all the time? Why can't he leave now?" Xie Yuan raised his eyebrows.
"I just feel like there are some mistakes in these ancient books, and I want to have a look with Mr. Lu." Lu Zhong smiled.
"Let me see."
Xie Yuan took the scroll, Qi Yan turned around and left with a puff of sleeves.
Lu Zhong looked confused: "Have we offended Mr. Qi Xiaolang?"
Xie Yuan touched his nose.
Is there a possibility that I am unhappy to see you?
Qi Yan told him about his previous experiences, and Xie Yuan also knew that it was because the head of the Lu family had been owed Yueyin for a long time that Qi Yan's mother got sick repeatedly and eventually died.
It's not without reason that he hates Lu Zhong.
…
Prince Pengcheng came twice more, wanting to imitate Liu Bei during the Three Kingdoms period who visited the thatched cottage three times and impressed Xie Yuan with his sincerity.
It's just that he underestimated Xie Yuan.
When the gift he carried for the third time could be described as extremely precious, he still declined it politely when he saw Xie Yuan, and Prince Pengcheng finally showed a sullen look on his face——
"Xie Yuan, you are just a member of a poor family. I have condescended to you three times and asked you to come out. I have already given you enough face. Don't be ignorant of good and evil!"
Xie Yuan bowed without changing his expression: "Your Highness, ordinary people have no ambitions. Please take back the gift and invite someone else."
Prince Pengcheng left with a livid face.
The attendant asked him if he needed to return to Pengcheng.
The young prince was a young man after all, and he was rejected three times. He lost his temper and became angry.
"If you don't reply, I won't believe that you can't invite a young man from a poor family." He gritted his teeth, with shame and annoyance in his eyes.
If I just go back like this, I won't be laughed at by the other children of the aristocratic families I've become friends with.
He is a great prince and heir apparent, but he can't afford to hire a young man from a poor family - isn't this a big joke?
Because of his unwillingness, Prince Pengcheng stayed in Youzhou, preparing to find another way to get Xie Yuan out of the mountain.
Since it's not possible to do it openly, then it's time to do it secretly. Xie Yuan must have a weak point. If you start from his weak point, you won't believe that he hasn't come out yet.
Thinking of this, Prince Pengcheng immediately sent people to investigate.
As soon as the man left, there was only one attendant following him.
At this time, the young prince was addicted to medicine and shouted to the attendant to get him Five Stone Powder.
The attendant quickly brought it. Prince Pengcheng took a big sip and lay down on the couch contentedly.
After a while, he had used up the whole bag of Five Stone Powder.
The medicine was strong, and the young prince vaguely said that he was going hunting in the countryside.
The attendant did not dare to disobey, so he fetched a fast horse and followed him out of the city.
However, Youzhou was an unfamiliar place and there was no one to guide him. As soon as he left the city gate, the prince of Pengcheng parted ways with his attendants and lost his way.
He ran towards a dense forest, unaware that he was being stared at by dozens of pairs of eyes.
When he entered the dense forest, the young prince saw no prey, but the cool breeze that came in front of him made him sober.
He looked at the unfamiliar road, turned his horse around and prepared to return to the city.
At this moment, a group of masked men suddenly rushed out, knocked him off his horse and tied him up.
"Who are you? Do you dare to kidnap a member of the royal family?" the young prince asked loudly with a white face.
"The one being tied up is a member of the royal family! Don't you agree? Bite me, my dear son!" The leader of the group patted the young prince's tender face and smiled mischievously.
Prince: "..."
"Take him away, give him some punishment, don't kill him, and quickly send a letter to King Pengcheng and ask him to redeem him! What are you talking about, hurry up and leave!"
"Here!"
The prince's heart trembled.
These people knew his identity...did they plan it in advance?
On the other side, when the attendant arrived, he only saw a lonely horse on the same spot, with dozens of pairs of messy footprints next to it.
There was a thump in his heart.
Playing ball, something big happened. This chapter has been completed!
