The Number One Catcher In The Capital, You Call This A Dog Leg?

Chapter 612: Chu Kingdom Bone

It snowed all night last night, when Xu Qing woke up, Su Qian's warm pavilion was still closed, and she was still sleeping, and because of the sound of the wind and snow last night, Su Qian was afraid that Xuan'er would not sleep well, so she called Xuan'er too Nuan Ge went to bed.

Xu Qing had no choice but to go to the kitchen to cook.

Now the inner house is full of snow, and the servant girl from the inner house will have to come over and clean it up later.

When the little girl came, she couldn't find Xuan'er who played with her yesterday, so she ran to the kitchen and looked at Xu Qing suspiciously: "Xu Qing Xu Qing! Where did Xuan'er go? We also said that we will continue to make snow sculptures today. "

Xu Qing said: "I was called to sleep by my lady yesterday, I guess I haven't woken up yet."

"Did Xuan'er sleep with Sister Su last night?" Hearing this, Xiao Ruxue looked in the direction of the Nuan Pavilion with bright eyes.

Xu Qing looked at Xiao Ruxue and said, "What's with your envious expression?"

The little girl immediately shook her head and denied, "I...I didn't, I...I didn't envy Xuan'er..."

Xu Qing: "Did I say you envy someone?"

When Xiao Ruxue heard this, she stomped her feet: "You talk nonsense! I'm ignoring you, I'm going to build a snowman."

After that, the little girl put on her shawl and ran to the yard.

...

During the meal, Su Qian lost her appetite, so Xu Qing took a bowl of porridge and went to the Nuan Pavilion. When Su Qian lost her appetite, she usually wanted Xu to feed her.

It's quite Tsundere, if you want to be fed, you can say that you want to be fed, and if you say you don't have an appetite.

After Xu Qing left, only Xuan'er and Xiao Ruxue were left on the dining table.

Xiao Ruxue brought Xuan'er a bowl and sat down next to Xuan'er, looked at her with big eyes and asked, "Xuan'er, Xuan'er, did you really sleep with Sister Su last night?"

When Xuan'er heard Xiao Ruxue's words, she couldn't help lowering her head and said, "Yes... yes..."

Xiao Ruxue asked: "How does it feel to sleep with Sister Su?"

Xuan'er's pretty face couldn't help being covered in a layer of pink: "Sleeping... with miss, it's very safe..."

Xiao Ruxue stared at Xuan'er with big black eyes, and then asked: "I still have a question, that is..."

...

When Xu Qing came back from Nuan Pavilion after feeding, she looked at Xiao Ruxue who was staring at Xuan'er's expression with big eyes, and then looked at Xuan'er who had her head bowed and her pink face showing doubts.

Was Xuan'er molested by Xiao Ruxue, who was a few months younger than her?

Just when Xu Qing put down the bowl and was about to inquire, a maid from the outer house ran over, looked at Xu Qing and said, "Master, there is a Wei Gonggong outside who wants to see you."

Xu Qing nodded when he heard this, "I see."

After finishing speaking, Xu Qing looked at Xuan'er and Xiao Ruxue, who were restless loli, and said, "Eat well, I'll go out and have a look."

Outside Andinghou's Mansion

Wei Zhong stood beside the carriage, walking up and down continuously, with a little anxiety showing between his brows, Xu Qing couldn't help being startled when he came out and saw Wei Zhong like this.

In the past, when Emperor Chu had something to do, he would send Wei Zhong to call him into the palace, but Wei Zhong always gave people a calm and mature feeling.

He always treats people other than Emperor Chu in a leisurely manner. Although he calls himself an old slave to any adult in the court, he clearly has an arrogance when he talks and walks.

It would not be an exaggeration to describe Eunuch Wei's composure as Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without changing his face.

But today was the first time Xu Qing saw such an impatient Eunuch Wei.

When Wei Zhong saw Xu Qing, he didn't say much, he just stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation: "Master Hou, get on the carriage quickly."

Seeing Wei Zhong's appearance, Xu Qing realized that it was an important matter, so he didn't neglect it. It wasn't until he got into the carriage and started to drive that he looked at Wei Zhong who was driving himself for the first time and asked, "Eunuch Wei, what makes you so nervous in the palace? Grassland Is there a call from there?"

While steering the carriage, Wei Zhong said: "Today is not for the affairs of the palace, drive!"

Xu Qing stabilized the wall of the carriage beside him and said in fear, "Hey, old Wei, the road is slippery in the snow, you drive... no... you're going to drive so fast, there will be problems."

Wei Zhong didn't rein in his horse to slow down, but said: "This old slave knows what to do, Lord Hou just sit down."

An sit a fart, Wei Zhong can still run with his own Qinggong while driving outside, sitting in the car by himself, is there really a problem to get out?

He has a fart number in his heart!

Feeling the bumps of the road, Xu Qing asked, "Since there is nothing wrong in the palace and the world is safe and sound, why are you still in such a hurry?"

Wei Zhong replied: "Teacher Zhao has been sick in bed. After winter, he wakes up and sleeps less. I'm afraid he won't be able to survive this winter. Now that he is dying, Taifu said that he wants to see Mr. Xu again, that is, Lord Hou, His Majesty heard what the Grand Tutor said, so he asked the old servant to hurry up and ask Lord Hou to go to the Zhao residence."

Xu Qing couldn't help but fell silent when he heard this.

Winter is the greatest enemy of the elderly. For many elderly people, this winter is the most difficult.

Zhao Taifu is no exception.

It is said that an old family is like a treasure, and so is a country.

It is indeed a blessing for the Chu State to have such a dedicated literati like Zhao Taifu in the court of Chu State.

Dragging a seriously ill body, he still has to fight for Chu State with Zhao State in Jingyi, which shows his ambition.

Taifu has been a false title since the previous dynasty. It is mostly given to those who are highly respected in the court or who resign due to physical reasons. Generally, this position can be enjoyed for life.

Although he doesn't have any real power, it is a symbol of status and status, and he doesn't have to do anything at home, and the imperial court pays a salary according to the official first rank every month.

But Taifu Zhao is an exception.

At the beginning, the emperor of Chu issued a decree to appoint Zhao Wen, who had resigned from office, as the grand tutor. Naturally, the imperial decree had to be accepted. If he did not accept it, he would not give the emperor face, which would be challenging the authority of the War Emperor.

In this way, Zhao Wen resigned as the Taifu in the Tai Chi Hall again after receiving the order to be the Taifu of Nine Heavens for 20 years.

It was also the first time since the founding of the state of Chu that someone resigned from the position of Taifu, an official position with only a status symbol but no real power.

The best new thing in the world.

When the Emperor of Chu asked about the reason, Zhao Taifu just said: "You will not be rewarded without merit, and you will not be favored without virtue. Since you are old and unable to serve the country, naturally you should no longer enjoy the imperial salary. Now our country of Chu Not rich, Your Majesty must not waste the treasury money on this useless person, Lao Lao."

At that time, Zhao Wen was also getting old, and when he was old, he became stubborn. The Emperor of Chu was also afraid that no one would be able to resist the stubborn temper of this old hero of Chu State, so he had to agree to Zhao Wen's resignation request again. .

Zhao Taifu resigned this time not for himself, but only for the imperial court, which was not rich at the time, to save a salary of a regular official, which can be used where it should be used.

It can be said that Taifu Zhao has been serving the country and the people all his life, not to mention the Emperor Chu, even the old father of the Emperor Chu treated this hero with courtesy.

Zhao Taifu also has a very high prestige among the scholars of Chu State because of his noble character, and he is called——

Chu State Bone!
