My Chinese ancestors

Chapter 474 The person you want to meet

After eating and drinking for a while, her mother Xiao Wei felt tired, so she was supported by Yin Suhuan and went back to the backyard to rest. Then the family members came over one by one and said goodbye to Su Chen, leaving only the younger members of the family to stay with her.

Su Chen understood what these people meant, so he simply ate and drank with his eldest and second brothers, while calling the brothers and sisters in the courtyard to come in and test their knowledge and military skills one by one. For those who didn't understand these, he asked about current affairs. Or laws, orders, and things.

Su Chen didn't care when he was asked. He said a few casual words to get rid of the embarrassment. However, there were a few capable people who still kept it in mind, but still encouraged them to take the imperial examination and get official positions based on their ability.

After arriving, people had almost left. Su Yong and Su Lie were also drunk and were helped away by servants. Su Chen was also a little drunk. Dian Wei and Xu Chu followed behind, while Zheng He carried the already drunk people. Su Chen fell asleep, and the one supporting Su Chen was Shi San.

"My family has worked hard for you all these years."

On the way to the south courtyard, Su Chen was supported by the scruffy-looking guard and looked at the familiar things around him, "Have you ever regretted not going to Yanjing with me?"

Thirteen shook his head.

"No, I still know how much the little one weighs. In terms of taking care of people, he can't compare to Prince Wu, and his martial arts skills are worse than General Dian and General Xu. If he stays in the Hou Mansion, the little one can still use his skills to some extent, and at home. I am also familiar with big and small things, and can occasionally be used as a half-manager."

"You can say that, and I feel at ease. You grew up with me, and the one you want to promote most is You, but I don't dare and I'm afraid!"

Su Chen put his arms around his shoulders and walked onto the stone bridge together: "Although you and I are master and servant, I really treat you as a brother. With your lazy and lazy temperament, if you become an errand, I won't care. Is it in the court or in the army? If important things are delayed, what should I do to you? I can’t kill you, and it’s hard to convince the public if I don’t kill you!

So, you staying here really makes me feel at ease. By the way, you got married to a maid in the house the year before last, right? I can't make it back in Yanjing, so you can take this! "

Su Chen took off a jade pendant from his waist. It was carved with two dragons playing with pearls, and the jade quality was even more transparent with green onions in it, without any trace of color.

"As long as it is not a serious crime of beheading that will harm the country and the people, with this jade pendant, you and your whole family will survive!"

This is equivalent to a gold medal for immunity from death. Of course, there is no such thing as a gold medal for immunity from death in this world, but the promises made by Yu Peng and Su Chen are not false. Everyone knows that the Emperor of Xia Kingdom always keeps his word. .

Thirteen did not dare to reach out to pick it up, but Su Chen forced it into his arms. This made Thirteen's face covered with tears and snot, and he knelt on the ground kowtowing and sobbing.

"Get out of here!"

Su Chen kicked him. Thirteen covered his buttocks and laughed with tears. He put the jade pendant in his arms and put it close to his body, leading Su Chen back to the south courtyard just like before.

"Your Majesty, even if you live in the palace all year round, I will come over and clean the south courtyard every day. I clean it with my own hands. In the study and bedrooms over there, I wipe every piece of wood with my own hands."

After being kicked, Thirteen returned to his original temperament. Although there were some witticisms, Su Chen was very moved when he heard them.

"Dian Wei, Xu Chu, and Wu Zixun, you can sleep in the rooms on the left and right." Returning to the bedroom where they had been away for a long time, Su Chen also asked the three of them to go down and have a rest. After that, Zheng He, after entering the south courtyard, was let He took Su Chen to rest first.

Here, Thirteen made the bed, came over to help Su Chen take off his cumbersome robes, and said smoothly: "Your Majesty, when you come back this time, do you want to go over there and take a look?"

Su Chen was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Of course I'm going. Early tomorrow morning, prepare the carriage and don't tell anyone."

"Okay, I'll go get ready later." Thirteen talked more and hung the robe he took off on the hanger: "Over there, as soon as I'm free, I'll go over and keep an eye on everything. Everything is as usual."

Su Chen understood the meaning of his words and kicked him on the butt again, driving him out of the bedroom.

"You can say this kind of thing in front of me? Go back and sleep."

The lights were flickering, and Su Chen was lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling, thinking of the people he would meet tomorrow, but feeling a little nervous for no reason.

It's been five years...

he murmured.

Early the next morning, Su Chen got up early, washed up, put on his robes under the service of the maid sent by Shisan, ate something casually in the south courtyard, and then sneaked away in a carriage with only Dianwei and Shisan.

There were still few pedestrians on the street in the early morning. After twists and turns, the carriage stopped at an inconspicuous large house in the southwest corner. Thirteen jumped out of the carriage and quickly walked up and knocked on the door.

What's more, an old concierge opened the door a crack and saw Thirteen, "Why are you..."

The old concierge's eyes then saw Su Chen getting out of the car, and Dian Wei, who was like a guard, standing behind Thirteen like an iron tower. The momentum of the two men frightened the old man, and it took him a long time to squeeze out a cry.

"Who are you two looking for?" "Go tell Jiang Wan that an old friend from Yanjing is visiting."

The old concierge actually didn't know much about the host's family. He only knew that he had moved to Ding'an from outside. Not to mention the orphans and widowers, he was also pregnant. He had been here for five years and had only seen the host's family appear once.

Su Chen has also changed a lot in the past five years. Not only is he taller and taller, but his beard is also much thicker than before. In a blink of an eye, the old concierge didn't recognize him. When Su Chen came closer, he said "ouch" and hurriedly picked him up. The door leaf is fully open.

"The little old man's eyes were so dim that he couldn't see clearly who was outside."

After saying that, he went over to welcome Su Chen in, and hurriedly led the way, calling a maid who passed by to bring the news to the backyard.

"No, I'll go there myself."

Su Chen sent the old concierge away with a smile. He was still somewhat familiar with this place. He led Dian Wei and Shi San around the vestibule. On the way there, he saw a boy of twelve or thirteen years old hurried over. The moment Su Chen arrived, he froze on the spot, and then... ran away.

"Your Majesty, is that... Bei Gongshu?"

"Well, he looks really like Kitamiya."

Su Chen smiled and talked to Dian Wei. Thirteen had never seen the former Emperor Yan, so he probably understood what he heard. He followed closely: "Your Majesty, besides being filial, this Beigong Shu is really a dandy. On the street, Everyone around him has to avoid him, just like His Majesty..."

Thirteen wanted to say that he was as dandy as Su Chen back then, but when he realized that he had said the wrong thing, he quickly shut his mouth.

"Haha, he is not a playboy... he may have died long ago." Dian Wei laughed from the side.

"Jiang Wan knew this, so she raised this child to be a playboy." Su Chen had a faint smile on his face, "She is very smart..."

After saying this, Su Chen walked into the backyard and saw a little girl sitting under the eaves with her chin in her hands, ignoring the maid who was giving medicine beside her.

When she saw Su Chen, the pink little girl tilted her head, stood up in surprise, and asked crisply: "Who are you, and why did you come to my house? My mother told me, this is the backyard... Outsiders can’t come in, get out quickly!”

"This little girl is so brave. Your Majesty, her temperament is a bit like yours." Dian Wei couldn't help laughing as he looked at the cute look of the little girl who was only about five years old and stared at her.

She was supposed to look kind, but this smile frightened the little girl under the eaves so much that her face changed. She grabbed the frightened maid next to her, kicked off her feet, turned around and ran away.

"Come on, hurry up, tell mother, there is a monster in the backyard!"

Dian Wei: "..."

He turned his head and looked at Thirteen, "Am I so scary?"

Thirteen emphasized his head.

"It's just a matter of eating people."

Su Chen on the side looked at the little girl escaping under the eaves with interest. His teeth were exposed when he smiled, and he snapped his fingers and said, "Wait for me here."

After saying that, he started to catch up with her, probably guessing that this was his daughter.

……

Over there, the little girl ran into the flower garden in the backyard in a panic, shouting in panic as she ran.

"Mom, there's a monster at home!"

Not far away, butterflies and bees were flying in the flower garden. The young man from before was also here at this time. Next to him, a plump figure squatted on the ground to trim flowers and grass. He heard the voice of his panting son next to him, and then heard his daughter's voice. She frowned slightly, then slowly stood up and looked back.

From the cornice, a familiar figure came out.

Chun Ping, the maid who was guarding the flower garden, saw the person coming. When she knelt down, the scissors in the woman's hand also fell to the ground with a clatter.
