I don't want to be king

Chapter 5 The Apprentice

When the breeze picked up, the fine waves on the river jumped and slapped the river bank, making a whimpering sound.

Xiao Anzi became even more frightened, looked at Hong Ying pitifully and said, "Master"

"En." Hong Ying nodded, then turned and left.

"Master!" The more Xiao Anzi shouted, the faster Hong Ying walked, and gradually the street wall covered his figure and disappeared.

She glanced back at the broad, sparkling river, shrunk her neck, and quickly caught up with her master with short legs without hesitation.

In the darkness, she just followed the master's path, not knowing where she was going, until she found the master stopped at the door of her house, she was stunned.

I saw my parents nodding and bowing to the master, then pressed their fingerprints on a piece of paper, and happily sent the master out.

Seeing that her mother's head was exposed from the lintel, she was so frightened that she wanted to find a place to hide.

"Little Anzi, you're lucky!"

It was too late to hide.

Mother has already stopped her.

From the moment she was born, my mother had never talked to her so kindly.

"After entering the prince's mansion, you will have endless blessings in the future!"

Daddy followed suit.

No matter how much parents complimented Master, Master always had a cold face and never said a word.

"Why are you standing there in a daze? Hurry up and follow Director Hong, do a good job in the palace, don't embarrass your father!"

When she was in a daze, her father suddenly reprimanded her again.

She still hadn't reacted, and her father came over and pushed her.

Without pushing her, the master told her that no matter what the situation, both legs should be firmly planted on the ground, like a tree.

Dad's slap came over, in her eyes, it was very slow, very slow, but she didn't dare to hide.

She knew that if she hid, her father's anger would not be dispelled.

He will beat her harder and scold her harder.

With a snap, his face was hot.

Covering her face, following her father's fingers, she saw the back of the master who was gradually going away.

She finally understood, and followed her master in despair, and then at the ear door of the palace, the master stopped, took a look at her, and she entered the palace.

Every time she enters the palace, the farthest distance is only under the screen wall next to the ear door, and it is the first time for her to enter the large side hall of the palace.

The heartache at this moment suppressed all her curiosity, she didn't have the time to look left and right, she lowered her head nervously, and stood opposite Master.

After Hong Ying held the teacup and took a sip, he said calmly, "Did you hear what your parents said?"

Xiao Anzi twisted the hem of his clothes with both hands, and said in a low voice, "Master, I know, they sold me out."

From the beginning to the end, she heard what her parents said, and she always understood it very well.

Just don't want to believe it.

"Is it eleven this year?"

"Master, it's twelve."

"Remember what the prince said, keep striving for self-improvement, and you will be no worse than anyone else in the future."

Hong Ying closed the tea lid, put the teacup on the table, stood up and said with his hands behind his back, "Be more confident, otherwise, as your mother said, it's useless to be alive."

"Master, I will definitely live up to it and not embarrass you." Xiao Anzi said hastily.

"It's not to embarrass the prince." Hong Ying emphasized his tone.

"Don't embarrass the lord," the voice became smaller and smaller.

"Do you remember your name?"

"My name is Sun." Xiao Anzi suddenly felt a chill, and hurriedly changed his words, "Hong An, my name is Hong An"

Tears pooled in the eyes again.

Hong Ying stood up, passed the threshold, and said to the maid waiting outside the door expressionlessly, "Mingyue, arrange a place for our apprentice, teach her some rules tomorrow, and offend the prince, our family will interrupt you." legs."

Their prince has always been unrestrained, but he does not allow others to behave in front of his prince.

"Yes, Manager Hong, this servant understands." Mingyue bowed and agreed.

Lin Yi slept until the sun was high, and if it wasn't too hot to fall asleep, he could continue to sleep.

"You're young, you don't get enough sleep"

While yawning, Lin Yi took a wet towel from Hong Ying.

"My lord has worked hard." Hong Ying smiled and said.

"Hey, Xiao Anzi." Lin Yi just arrived at the gazebo to have breakfast, when he saw Hong An standing at a loss, he said with a smile, "It's early enough, children need to get enough sleep, otherwise they won't grow up."

"My lord" Hong Ying put the last plate of fried mutton on the table, then knelt down and said, "I made my own decision and kept her as an apprentice. I hope my lord will agree."

"Hey, how many times have I told you, it's early in the morning, don't go to so much, it's a waste!

Do we have a mine at home?

Why did I find you prodigal bastards! "

Lin Yi slowly chewed the glutinous rice cake in his mouth, "You have become addicted to kneeling recently, don't get up."

Hong An looked at the prince who had already had breakfast and got up, and then glanced at the master who was still kneeling on the ground.

When the prince walked out of the gazebo, she couldn't help but walked over to hold Master's arm, and said in a low voice, "Master"

"Slap the mouth" Hong Ying knelt on the ground without moving, and said coldly, "I forgot the rules I just learned."

"Is it your job to bully a little girl?"

Lin Yi, who walked to the corner of the garden, suddenly stuck out his head, "Prepare the donkey, let's go fishing and add vegetables tonight."

"Yes." Hong Ying stood up happily, then turned her head and said coldly to Hong An, "Continue to practice the eight-step catching toad. If you are lazy, our family will definitely not forgive you."

"Master, I will"

Hong Ying didn't bother to listen to what she said, and followed the prince closely.

The standard equipment for the prince to travel is two guards, a maid, a donkey, and a servant.

"Xiao Hei, if you dare to throw me today,

Lin Yi tugged at the ears of a donkey that was black all over, "I eat donkey meat on fire at night!

Don't think I dare not. "

The dream of riding a galloping horse when I was young has not yet come true.

The reality is too cruel!

Riding a horse is harder than getting a driver's license!

As for the carriage, it is stuffy and stuffy inside, even if it is put in an ice jar, I don't know if others can survive it, but he certainly can't.

The black donkey's ears were already long, but when Lin Yi grabbed them, they looked even longer.

He glanced at Hong Ying who was close to him, but didn't dare to move, and let out an ugly cry.

After Hong Ying shouldered the prince to the donkey, he asked with a smile, "My lord, where are we going to go fishing today?"

"Jumahe always has the air force," Lin Yi said angrily, "Let's go farther and go to the North Canal. The king has a hunch that today will definitely explode."

Hong Ying said, "What the prince said is true."

What is the air force and what is explosive protection, the prince has never told him.

But over the years, he probably has understood what these words mean.

"Is it Hong An?" Lin Yi asked curiously on the bustling street, "Accept him as an apprentice, don't mistake him for his disciple."

Hong Ying smiled and said, "My lord, this skill of a slave is best suited for a girl to learn."

"What is it called Kung Fu?" Lin Yi couldn't remember for a while.

"Hui Yuan Gong."

"You're welcome, just copied it."

Lin Yi said angrily.

He dared to use the name of the exercises in Journey to the West, and he was not afraid of flashing his waist.

"Small mistake."

Hong Ying led the donkey and smiled happily.
