Hello Chang'an Chapter 650

Chapter 650 She is still angry

 Everyone was here to enjoy themselves, and they didn't mind not seeing the Taifu's face.

The Chu family only said to the outside world that the old man needed to rest, and the visitors all expressed their understanding and secretly breathed a sigh of relief - everyone knew the temper of the Taifu, and it was best not to see him. If he did, he would be scolded and kicked out.

The Taifu, who was in bed recovering from his injuries, was indeed very angry and would choke on others when he had nothing to do. Fortunately, the grandchildren all took turns to take care of him, and everyone took turns to be scolded. They could also share their experiences with each other afterwards, so there was not much pressure.

For the Chu family, it was a great blessing to be tattooed with two sentences by the old man. They burned incense and paid homage to the Bodhisattva every day.

On this day, the Taifu leaned on the bedside and asked a great-grandson to read to him.

The steward came to deliver the things and was talking to the two masters outside. A servant came to look for the steward and said that the tea was gone. The steward asked him to go to the warehouse to get it, but the servant said that there was no tea left in the warehouse.

There has been a lot of trouble at home lately, so the manager hurriedly asked someone to go buy it in the back street.

The Taifu heard this and called his two sons to him, scolding him.

The tea in the warehouse has been drained, so many guests have been entertained!

 “Didn't I tell you to close the door?” Taifu was very upset: “I am not the West Market here, let alone the Caishikou!”

The two old sons were scolded, and the eldest explained awkwardly: "Every day in the palace, servants come to inquire about the father's injury. The son thought that it would not be appropriate to keep the door closed..."

“Then let swarms of wasps and flies come in!”

"It's just a cicada's nest, but it's already making me miserable!" Taifu ordered angrily: "Hurry up to the front, kick everyone out for me, and close the door tightly! No one from the palace is allowed in. !”

The two gentlemen looked at each other, neither dared to refute, and bowed and left.

When the room became quiet, the old servant took the opportunity to tuck the quilt for the Grand Tutor and tried to ask: "Old Master, are you angry that Your Highness did not come to see you in person?"

The Taifu grabbed the quilt, turned around and faced inside, and said angrily: "It's best not to come, so as not to upset others!"

As he spoke, he laughed again and added: "If you are willing to be angry, let her be angry!"

Since the Grand Tutor has been recovering from his injuries, Li Suining has indeed not come to the Chu Mansion.

The Taifu was too injured to move at first, so he was treated nearby and placed in the imperial city. When he was in a coma, Li Suining visited him even though he couldn't get away. After he woke up safely, only the chamberlain came to inquire every day.

After the Taifu woke up, he slowly regained his consciousness. After hearing what happened, he first felt relieved, and then got used to getting angry with his students again - he had already left a message, asking her to stay in Luoyang and wait for news. It was better for her. I took the risk to kill him again!

It's best to be okay, but if something happens to him, his life will be in vain!

The Tutor was ready to scold the students, but he waited and saw no one to be scolded.

After waiting for more than ten days, the Taifu finally couldn't hold it back and asked the chamberlain who came to visit.

At that time, Zhai Xi looked a little embarrassed, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, and said as softly as possible: "Her Royal Highness, if you keep asking, let me answer you..."

Taifu frowned: [Answer! 】

Zhai Xi: [Her Royal Highness the Dowager said that the Tutor made decisions without any discussion and was prepared to die. She was really angry. 】

　　Yes, that is exactly what Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother said - [Tell the teacher, I am really angry. 】

When Zhai listened carefully, he felt shocked in his heart.

 Such a straightforward and unvarnished statement, which is very naive and willful for a prince... Does the princess actually want him to send it to the hot-tempered Taifu Chu?

After hearing this, Mrs. Chu was so angry that her eyes almost popped out - Hey, is she still angry? This is simply unreasonable!

　　【Get angry! 】 The Taifu asked Zhai Xi to speak in a strange way: "Just be angry, it's good to be angry, be energetic!" 】

Zhai Xi was silent for a moment, and suddenly realized that the concubine was not the only one who was willful.

After Zhai Xi left, the Taifu told his children and grandchildren that they were not allowed to accept anything sent from the palace, saying: "I don't want to get angry after eating it, and then become that water toad that explodes when poked!" 】

 Fortunately, the children and grandchildren of the Chu family are well versed in the art of giving and receiving gifts and violating the laws of the yin and yang. Here they agreed with the old man, and on the other side they bowed to the emperor and accepted the gifts without hesitation.

As for the old servant who was personally serving the Grand Tutor, he discovered that it was impossible to tell whether the Princess Royal Highness in the palace had become more energetic due to anger, but the old master of his family had indeed become more energetic visibly to the naked eye...

Drinking medicine and supplements every day is a great thing. He no longer complains about the bitter taste of the medicine and doesn't feel tired of the soup, nor does he have any quarrels with the doctors. The old servant sees this and can't help but secretly guess that the old man probably wants to get well as soon as possible. He was injured so that he could go to the palace to vent his anger.

Mr. Chu, who is full of energy to recuperate, has been listening to the doctor's advice recently. He will sleep two or three times during the day, and sleep hard even if he doesn't sleep.

On this day, the Grand Tutor woke up from his lunch break and heard faint voices outside. He vaguely heard something like "The Dowager is angry." The old man sat up in excitement and said, "She wants to be angry, let her Get angry! Who are you talking to here?"

　　The servant who was sleeping on the side was startled.

The grandson of the Chu family who spoke also hurried in to ask about the situation.

The Taifu blew his beard and glared, and asked the young man: "Let me ask you, who are you telling this to?"

The young man was confused and replied blankly: "Back to my grandfather, my grandson said... I told Mother Fu... Mother Fu said it was time to make new clothes, and there were many things to do next. It happened that the palace sent a few horses "Bu, my grandson has been staying here for the past two days and didn't want to go back, so Mother Fu brought some pieces of cloth and asked her grandson to choose one."

 Mother Fu as the young man calls him is his wet nurse and the housekeeper of the Chu family.

The woman had also walked in, took the words, and said with a smile: "...I want the Fourteenth Prince to choose something bright, but the Fourteenth Prince said it is too girly!"

 The young man nodded, and that's all he said!

“Grandpa is suffering from a nightmare?”

“…” The Taifu's face suddenly changed, and he waved his hand to drive the person out: “Just choose your ingredients!”

The young man didn't understand why, so he scratched his head and went out.

Not long after, there was a sound of saluting outside the window, and someone came to announce that Qiao Jijiu and Zhan Shangshu were here.

The Taifu can still meet these two people.

Qiao Yang brought two fish and gave them to the Chu family, telling them to use them to make soup for the Taifu.

 “You still have time for fishing?”

Hearing Taifu's question, Qiao Yang sighed with a smile and waved her hands: "How can I dare to take a break... I asked my servant to buy the fish from the morning market in the morning. Two fresh snakeheads are just suitable for recuperation."

Compared with Taifu, Zhan Mian's injury was not serious. Moreover, he was younger than his teacher and recovered faster. He went back to work at the Ministry of Revenue seven or eight days ago.

 Today I took some time to visit the teacher with Qiao Yang.

The two of them sat down in front of the bed, chatting with the Taifu, and talked about the progress of various matters. Generally speaking, everything was going smoothly, and it was quite busy and not chaotic.

After talking about business, Zhan Mian then talked about the thrill of that day. Thinking that the old teacher almost died, Zhan Mian couldn't help but shed tears. He was afraid and said: "If Her Highness had not arrived in time that day, the useless students would have died." How can I protect the teacher even a little bit..."

The reason why he was not seriously injured was because he was protected and pushed forward by Lu Chong's people. Only then did he realize that a scholar like him, who had no strength to tie a chicken, a bald head, a weak body, and slow legs, was there. In such a chaotic situation, he couldn't care about anything at all, let alone protecting the teacher. He had no choice but to be carried away.

Zhan Mian did not forget to comment when he was moved. He only said that after this incident, the four people he admired most in his life were these four people -

 This first person naturally wants to look at his teacher.

 The second place is undoubtedly the Crown Princess. The third person was Mr. Luo. When Luo Guanlin was mentioned, Zhan Mian felt a little sad and more ashamed. Previously, he had some prejudice against Luo Yushi, but he never thought that the other party would When he joined Li Yin's army, he actually endured the humiliation and burden to work for the princess...

 But this matter has not been widely known. Only those officials who witnessed Luo Guanlin's assassination in Hanyuan Hall that day mentioned a few words.

 When mentioning this, Mrs. Chu was thoughtful.

Just as Qiao Yang was about to take over what Zhan Mian said, Zhan Mian continued: "This fourth person is none other than Qiao Jijiu!"

Qiao Yang hurriedly said: "How dare you do it!"

Zhan Mian, however, was sincerely impressed: "Not to mention that Qiao Jijiu protected countless supervisors under Bian Jun and Li Yin. Not only was he courageous, but he also showed great benevolence and righteousness, and he can be regarded as a teacher for the world..."

Hearing this, Qiao Yang suddenly had a bad feeling.

I always feel that what I have said up to this point is just a foreshadowing, and there will definitely be a big one later -

Qiao Yang, who was vaguely aware of it, tried to stop him at the critical moment but heard Zhan Mian say: "What's even more valuable is that the sacrificial wine also taught..."

Qiao Yang, who had a strong desire to save herself, had taken a sip of tea urgently and coughed suddenly: "...cough cough cough!"

“Slow down the wine offering!” Zhan Mian was interrupted and smiled and patted Qiao Yang on the back.

Qiao Yang put down the tea cup in shock and said humbly: "When it comes to the best teachers in the world, you are the only one!"

Zhan Mian smiled and said, "Qiao Jijiu is so humble!"

This Qiao Jijiu is real. The teacher is not a superficial person who likes to be flattered. Besides, the first person he praised was the teacher. How can he not understand the respect for the teacher?

As for the teacher's expression, it seems a little not so good? Zhan Mian didn't notice anything strange - when had the teacher's face looked better?

Zhan Shangshu, who has been in the officialdom for many years, did not feel that there was anything wrong with his words at all, so he said firmly and calmly: "Sacrificing wine can teach Da Sheng such a prince. This is a great merit for the common people!"

Qiao Yang coughed again, this time it was even a dry cough.

However, this coughing sound failed to interrupt Zhan Mian's words. While slowly patting Qiao Yang on the back, he continued to sigh: "This is not what Zhan said. Who doesn't respect the sacrificial wine nowadays? Liquor is the worthy master of the queen in the eyes of the world."

Qiao Yang knelt down and begged this man to shut up.

"I don't dare to take it, I really don't dare to take it..." Qiao Yang, whose face was red from coughing, waved her hands and stood up, silently poured a cup of tea for the Taifu, handed it to the couch with both hands, and looked at the Taifu with eyes full of guilt. color.

He confesses, he is a thief! Thief who steals students!

This kind of thing, let alone the master, is that he thinks he is indifferent to fame and wealth, but if you think about it, he worked hard to teach a number one among the number one, but the name of this number one teacher was stolen by others. Go, every time he has to listen to the world praising the thief, but he still can't explain it, then he will be angry for whatever reason...

 But he was also wronged. It should be noted that he didn't know it at first. It was His Highness who insisted on becoming her disciple. After all, he was also the victim!

 When His Highness is free, he will definitely ask His Highness to come forward and speak for him properly!

The Taifu probably also understood the truth that every wrongdoer has his own debtor, so although he was displeased, he accepted Qiao Yang's tea and asked Qiao Yang angrily: "Is there anything else?"

Hearing the words about to drive people away, Qiao Yang hurriedly said: "There is one."

"In three to five days, the Luo family will arrive in Beijing together with Marquis Zhongyong." Qiao Yang said, "I am here today to see how you are recovering and to hold funeral arrangements for Mr. Luo..."

Before Qiao Yang finished speaking, Taifu sighed almost imperceptibly and said, "Of course I want to go, I want to give you something."

Qiao Yang agreed and said that he would notify the Taifu after a specific date.

The Taifu nodded and asked Qiao Yang: "What is her plan? Will she personally attend to the funeral of Luo Yushi?"

ˈ˜Qiao Yang: “Exactly.”

The Taifu then understood and nodded without asking any more questions.

Luo Guanlin's coffin was parked at Luo's residence in the capital.

This is the former residence of Luo Guanlin. It is guarded by the imperial army day and night, and eminent monks gather here to build a dojo for the deceased. There is a sky mirror among them.

Li Suining had given instructions in advance that when the Luo family came to Beijing, there was no need to go to the palace immediately to pay respects, but to go home first to express condolences and hold funerals.

After the Luo family entered Beijing with Chang Kuo, they went straight to Luo's house.

Before approaching the mourning hall, Luo Ze heard the sound of the ritual ceremony in the Taoist temple. Luo Ze didn't pay much attention to it and ran quickly into the mourning white hall. He knelt down with tears in his eyes and worshiped solemnly.

Luo Xi supported her mother who seemed to have no support anymore. She looked at her grandmother behind her with red eyes, only to see her grandmother waving her hands and saying, "Help your mother in first..."

Mother Luo looked at Chang Kuo, who had come to express condolences before returning home, and said thoughtfully: "Master Marquis, please come in with me."

 Entering the mourning hall, Mother Luo had already organized everything in an orderly manner amidst the sounds of crying.

Chang Kuo finished applying the incense and looked at the old man who was slightly stooped, wearing a brown sarong, and his neat silver hair was carefully wrapped, and he couldn't help but feel respect in his heart.

Along the way, Chang Kuo had seen Ms. Liu cry and her children crying, but he had never seen Granny Jin shed a tear in front of others.

　　It has always been a great tragedy in life for a person with white hair to give a gift to a person with black hair, but this old man is the calmest one in the family and arranges everything carefully and appropriately.

 But Chang Kuo, who is also a parent, knows very well how this can not be painful.

He wanted to say a few words of comfort, but the old man told him instead: "I am in mourning, but it is not appropriate to go to the palace to pay homage to the Queen, so I would like to ask the Marquis to express my gratitude on my behalf..."

As he spoke, he looked at everything in the mourning hall and said sincerely: "Everything has been arranged so thoughtfully. It really takes a lot of effort from Your Highness. I and my family are very grateful."

 After that, he was about to bow down in the direction of the imperial city. Chang Kuo hurriedly supported him.

However, after Chang Kuo left, Granny Jin still insisted on saluting in the direction of the imperial city. After a long time, when she straightened up, a trace of tears appeared in her eyes. She looked at the coffin in the mourning hall and whispered hoarsely: "Mother Come on, go ahead... I know you should rest in peace."

 Her son, how could she not understand him?

From the moment she heard the news, she had already guessed what this smelly stone was going to do—as a mother, she had never doubted that her son would betray Jiangdu and his lord.

 Hence the phrase "He is probably dead". At that time, the mother made preparations for her son. Her son didn't say it clearly, so she knew or didn't know, but she still understood the truth that things come true in a secret way.

 If the son does something wrong, the mother will scold or beat him.

 When the son does something right, the mother must let him do it no matter how reluctant she is.

Now, he has done it, mother, be happy for him!

 Grandma Jin wiped away the tears from her eyes and walked into the mourning hall amidst the sound of chanting sutras.

 It's the end of the month, please give me a monthly ticket!

 I have read everyone's extra suggestions, and those that can be written will be written in the main text (according to the timeline, if the timeline does not allow it, try to write as many extras as possible)
