Thought

"Tsk, it's rare to see our young master's hot face sticking to other people's cold ass!" Xu Minyou's tone was up and down, full of schadenfreude.

Before Xue Yi could answer, he said angrily, "Yes."

"Hehe." Xue Yi looked at Xu Minyou mockingly, "Master Ben is willing, you care about me? Go away!" After speaking, he led a group of people into the Governor's Mansion swaggeringly.

Xu Minyou's eyes widened, "This little brat is really getting more and more arrogant."

"Who told you to provoke others first." Wei Pingting looked at Xu Minyou helplessly, "You deserve it."

Xu Minyou's eyes widened, "Did I provoke him? I deserve it?" As if hearing a big joke, Xu Minyou looked aggrieved, "You don't know how difficult this little brat is."

Wei Pingting met Xu Minyou's pitiful gaze indifferently, "Aren't you an adult yourself?"

"Little bottle, whose bamboo horse are you?" Xu Minyou exaggeratedly exclaimed.

Wei Pingting clenched his fist and coughed twice on his lips, "It's not yours anyway."

Xu Minyou, "..."

Early the next morning, a group of people appeared on the official road.

Wei Pingting looked at Wei Shulin reluctantly, "Uncle, are you really not going back to Kyoto with us?"

Wei Shuolin smiled and rubbed Wei Pingting's head vigorously. He didn't say anything, but revealed his attitude beyond doubt.

"Uncle, grandma always talks about you, thinking about when you can go back." Wei Pingting was full of resentment, "It has been more than three years since you left, and we will be separated as soon as we meet."

This made Xu Minyou, who was listening on the sidelines, jealous and jealous, why hadn't Xiao Pingzi been so clingy to him before, usually he was beaten or scolded!

He doesn't even look at himself, he always teases Wei Pingting on weekdays, and stays sticky with Wei Pingting all the time.It was too late for Wei Pingting to refuse!

It’s okay if Wei Pingting didn’t say anything, but when he mentioned that his so-called grandmother, Wei Shuolin, was even more determined not to go home, “Pingting, look at my uncle’s recovery from a serious injury, and there’s still a mess in Qingzhou that hasn’t been cleaned up…”

"Uncle really can't let go!"

Seeing this, Wei Pingting finally gave up the idea of ​​returning to Beijing with his younger uncle, but at the end of his life, Wei Shulin's "face" was broken, "I think you are afraid that after you go back, your grandmother will force you to marry, you coward."

Wei Shuolin was not annoyed when he heard the words, and flattered him, "Pingting, you know your grandmother too. My uncle was really tortured, so he escaped from the capital. You said that your grandmother didn't do well, so you have to force her." I'm married."

"That's your mother too." Wei Pingting said angrily.

"Otherwise I can run out of the capital in a hurry." Wei Shuolin scratched his head twice vigorously, and the scattered strands of hair fell down, causing Wei Shulin to pull back impatiently, "If it was someone else, your uncle would have called him Shut up."

Wei Pingting was speechless. If it was someone else, with his brother-in-law's character, he would definitely wear a sack.

"I always say that someone will take care of me when I get old, as if Pingting, you won't be filial to me when I get old." Wei Shuolin muttered, but Wei Shuolin didn't hear him.

"Don't talk about it." Wei Shuolin got on his horse, "If your grandmother asks me when I go back, she will say that I am busy with work, do you understand?"

"Understood." But it's not his fault that his grandmother guessed it, Wei Pingting added in his heart, seeing Wei Shulin riding his horse galloping, he didn't regard himself as a sick person at all, and helplessly told him, "Uncle, slow down. "

On the way back to Beijing, the journey is smooth. Compared with the time to go to Qingzhou, the return to Kyoto should not be too easy.

Xue Yi lay lazily on the soft cushion of the large carriage, and almost went to find Duke Zhuang while he was staggering, but it was the noise of Xu Minyou getting into the carriage that woke Xue Yi up.

Xu Minyou came up with a long sigh, "It's still comfortable on your side." He said that he didn't treat himself as an outsider at all, lying like a dead body

Lying on the soft cushion on the other side, "It's a pity that I still have to patrol in the wind and rain."

Xue Yi ignored Xu Minyou, and sure enough, another person came up in the carriage after a while, it was Wei Pingting who also came back from the inspection, and when he came up, he heard Xu Minyou complaining to Xue Yi.

He sneered mercilessly, "Your Majesty Xu has really worked hard, and I don't know who is the person who has been pestering to inspect after a while?"

Xu Minyou sat down Wei Pingting, the "servant" who was crawling and crawling, "Come on, come on, Pingting must be tired after a day of patrolling, let me give you a shoulder squeeze."

"Don't bother me." He refused, but he didn't make any actual actions.

On the contrary, it made Xue Yi's eyes hurt from watching it. At first, he was enjoying it, but if he watched it too much, his eyes would hurt.But the two of them didn't have any self-knowledge, so they sneaked into him from time to time.

Simply out of sight, Xue Yi picked up a miscellaneous journal and looked at it.Speaking of which, this ancient man had a pretty good imagination, and his brains were big, and some of them surprised him even when he saw them.

Time flies, and Kyoto is just around the corner.

Xue Yi got out of the carriage, exchanged pleasantries with Liang Zhu for a while, and then separated.Xu Minyou and the others went back to their respective homes. Of course, Dong Hua followed Liang Zhu into the palace to face the saint.

Back at Zhenyuanhou Mansion, as soon as Xue Yi entered the gate, he saw his grandmother waiting for him with a smile. "Grandma, why did you come out?"

Xue Yi stepped forward to support Mrs. Xue, "The weather is already cold, how can I make my grandma come out to pick me up? If my grandson is too tired for my grandson, how can I let my grandson live? The people around grandma don't know how to persuade you. "

Xue Yi chattered like this while helping Mrs. Xue back to the house.

Mrs. Xue smiled at the corner of her mouth and did not refute. She let Xue Yi support her back to the Songhe Hall and sat down. Xue Yi stopped nagging, and finally concluded, "Grandmother must not be so willful in the future. .”

"Okay, okay." Mrs. Xue seldom laughed out loud, and responded again and again, "Don't make my grandson so worried."

The nanny on the side burst out laughing, seeing Mrs. Xue looked over and said with a smile, "It's been a long time since I have seen the old lady being disciplined like this, remembering the old slave's dissuasion just now, the old lady can listen to what Master Hou said. "

To be more specific, the nanny's words were a bit over the top, but the nanny who spoke had a different relationship with Mrs. Xue.He grew up with his mother, and watched Xue Yi and his son grow up.

That's not out of the ordinary.

Mrs. Xue pointed her finger weakly at Nanny, but she was not angry, "Look at this old man, he is telling you about his old age again."

Mammy covered her mouth and smiled, but said nothing.

Mrs. Xue also exposed it, and asked Xue Yi how she was doing in Mushen Academy.Xue Yi naturally boasted again, "Besides, my grandson is already a second-rank Marquis. No one bullies my grandson, let alone my grandmother arranged to protect my grandson."

"Yes yes yes." Mrs. Xue nodded, "Brother Yi is the most powerful, and now he is Lord Hou."

The two chattered for a while, and Mrs. Xue suddenly mentioned what happened a few days later.

"In a few days it will be the emperor's birthday, and officials from all over the country will go to Beijing to pay homage." Mrs. Xue changed her voice and looked at Xue Yi kindly, "You have a good rest. You should be announced to the palace for an audience in the next few days."

"Grandma, don't worry." Xue Yi nodded, "Grandson will be careful."

Mrs. Xue shook her head, "Now there are only one old man and one child left in the Zhenyuanhou Mansion, and the military power has been retaken by the emperor. You survived a near death in the palace, because of the military power and the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion protecting Dayan for generations. For the sake of love, the emperor will take care of us."

"And the person behind it is a smart person who has done this, so naturally he would be smart enough not to do anything to us." Mrs. Xue touched the back of Xue Yi's hand, "Grandmother knows that Brother Yi is smart, otherwise she wouldn't agree to go to the shepherd's house." Xin Academy to go to school."

"Grandmother." Xue Yi's expression was complicated, and Mrs. Xue could see clearly.But it's also very sad!

Mrs. Xue waved her hands and smiled, "This man is old, so he tends to think too much." As she said, Mrs. Xue tapped Xue Yi's forehead, "Grandma said these things to you today just to let you know, we The Xue family is not afraid of trouble."

"Yes, grandma." Xue Yi said respectfully, lying on Mrs. Xue's lap.

On the other side, Xu Minyou, who had just returned to Cheng'enhou's Mansion, had no time to freshen up and feel his mother's warm embrace, when he was violently dragged into the study by his father.

"Father." Xu Minyou struggled hard, and finally got out of his father's clutches, "Your son, I finally came back, is this how you treat me?"

"You are really my dear father."

Master Xu Hou sneered, "If I wasn't your own father, I would have thrown you somewhere long ago."

"I really doubt if you are my son, you are so stupid." Lord Xu Hou only felt that the fire in his heart was getting hotter and hotter, wishing to burn this stinky boy Xu Minyou completely.

Look at what he did in Qingzhou, if he made a wrong step, he might lose his life in Qingzhou.God knows how he felt when he received his son's letter from Fei Ge, he couldn't sleep for several nights, and he didn't dare to let his wife notice.

Thinking that the elder son might not come back, Xu Houye's eyes were sore, and finally he just sat down on the chair weakly, "Don't take such risks in the future."

Looking at his father who suddenly looked a few years older, Xu Minyou suddenly felt guilty. If Xue Yi hadn't appeared, maybe he would not have seen his father.

Just giving him another chance, Xu Minyou also knew that he would make exactly the same choice, "Father, my son will be more careful in the future."

Xu Houye sighed in his heart, and he also understood Xu Minyou, but the training for Xu Minyou suddenly doubled later, he didn't want Xu Minyou to become a peerless master, he just wanted to be able to protect him.

"Tell me about your experience in Qingzhou."

Xu Minyou's face straightened, and he brought up his experience in Qingzhou one by one, but the source of the gun/powder made him cleverly transfer it to the mine.When looking for an account book, an extra gain.

"Father, you don't know. Those who chased and killed me in the canyon used this kind of gunpowder. If Xue Yi hadn't happened to pass by..." Seeing the change in his old father's expression visible to the naked eye, Xu Minyou was clever, "So I searched for it in the mine."

Master Xu calmed down his emotions, stroked his smooth beard, thoughtfully, "Is the power of this gunpowder really as you said?",

Xu Minyou blinked, remembering the explosives that Xue Yi dropped in the canyon, and the explosives that he dropped. "Father, my son has prepared a batch of finished products with the formula. Although the power is not great, but my son feels that the power of gunpowder is more than that."

It must be because of my own hands, so the power of gunpowder is not great.

Xu Minyou thought for sure.

If Xue Yi knew Xu Minyou's thoughts, he would laugh at Xu Minyou's whimsy.The formula he gave Xu Minyou was only the most elementary gunpowder formula, it was too rough.

At that time, what he ordered Xu Xu to throw out was an improved version, and the power was naturally different.

However, I don't know if Dayan's craftsman is strong enough, maybe it can be improved.However, the improvement of anything takes time, and it will naturally not come out overnight.

"You still have the formula for this gunpowder?" Master Xu Hou looked at Xu Minyou carefully.

Xu Minyou chuckled, "It was sent to Eunuch Liang together with the account book, and it should be in his hands at this time." Xu Minyou pointed to the sky.

"You're smart." Master Xu was slightly proud, "Get ready, if you're quick, today, if you're slow, tomorrow."
