Yang Qian raised his head in shock and looked at Yang Guang, who was smiling and seemed to be waiting for his order to thank him.
Task: Reject Yang Guang, reward: a treasure box...
Yang Qian was shocked, System Dad, since when did you become so courageous? How dare you say such a cool thing about refusing.
I really have a fate with Yang Guang, the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty. I only met twice, but I have already obtained many treasure chests because of it.
It is much more refreshing than reading the Four Books and Five Classics in the dark.
"I thank Your Majesty for your kindness to your holy family." Yang Qian bowed to the ground and calmed down.
"It's just that I don't dare to accept the order..."
"Don't you dare?" Yang Guang looked stunned and glanced at Queen Xiao beside him.
Empress Xiao was also very curious, and the young man's words were indeed interesting.
"Your Majesty clearly knows that my mother is weak and sick, and has neglected family affairs for many years. My sister has already married outside, and my father is serving in the court."
"Now, only the minister who has just turned fifteen is taking care of my mother.
I obeyed His Majesty's will, but ignored my frail and sick mother in Xingyang, which was unfilial..."
"That's why I dare not accept the order."
When Queen Xiao heard that she was fifteen years old, a soft part in her heart was gently touched, her eyes were slightly red and she said.
"Get up quickly. It's rare for such a filial child to be born. Your Majesty, if Saburo were here, I'm afraid he would only be at this age and look like this..."
"Zi Tong..." Yang Guang looked at Queen Xiao with compassion in his heart.
"It's rare that you have such a filial heart, so I will wait for you for another year. When the time comes, don't refuse."
Yang Qian secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "I am so virtuous and talented, but I have received such grace from your majesty. Thank you for your kindness."
A year is a year, and it can only be delayed for a while. Otherwise, Yang Qian has nothing to do.
Yang Guang smiled and shook his head. "Okay, stop flattering me and go ahead."
"Dear gentlemen, please continue. The banquet during the Double Ninth Festival cannot be stopped so early..."
#####
The melodious and brisk music sounded again, and the maids who had rested for a long time started dancing again.
All the ministers raised their glasses one after another, and the eunuchs even lit up the lanterns, illuminating the entire Yuolingtai like daylight.
After returning to his seat and sitting down, Yang Qian had time to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. It was so exciting...
"Brother Xian, you really scared Brother Yu just now..." Zheng Shanyuan also wiped the cold sweat from his face.
Xingyang Zheng family has already bet on Yang Qian.
As a result, this guy was so ecstatic one moment, and almost scared his soul out of his mind the next.
"Brother, I don't want to either, but there's really nothing I can do about it."
Yang Qian was also helpless, and I didn’t want to act coquettishly on the verge of committing suicide.
System dad, can you be nice to me? That kind of warm and comfortable care.
"I entered the court rashly at this time, and still stayed with the emperor as a close minister, haha...
In less than two months, Brother Zheng, you might have to go to the wilderness to worship your little brother."
"That's not to say...but it's true that it's not easy to be a close minister around His Majesty."
After thinking about it calmly, Zheng Shanyuan had to admit that what Yang Qian said made sense.
Luban Li jumped over again, looking at Yang Qian with bright eyes, his face full of admiration.
"Brother Yang, my father said that you are very, very good. Your poem just now was so good that even His Majesty praised you so much."
Yang Qian showed a humble smile on his face and looked at Li Xiuning standing behind Luban Li.
"It's just a coincidence of inspiration."
"By the way, Brother Yang, didn't you want to tell me a story just now?" Luban Li tugged on Yang Qian's shirt and said very persistently.
"That's the story of Mao Sui."
"Haha..." Yang Qian, whose teeth were itching, lowered his head. "I have a better story, do you want to hear it?"
"Once upon a time, there was a child named Li. He had a good friend named Wang who lived next door to his house."
"One day, Xiao Li had been hungry all day at home. At this time, someone knocked on his door."
"I saw a man dressed as a waiter standing at the door carrying a large food box.
Xiao Li is very curious, did you find the wrong door? I didn't ask for food."
"The store clerk said: I know, this is the delicacy that Mr. Wang next door wants to eat tonight, but he is not at home today.
I was worried that you wouldn’t be able to see it, so I specially asked me to send it over for you to take a look at and say goodbye.”
Zheng Shanyuan, who was drinking at the side, spat out a mouthful of wine several feet away, choking until his eyes went straight.
Luban Li: "???"
Li Xiuning: "..."
Yang Qian had a kind smile on his face, patted Lu Ban Li who was stunned, and said feeling refreshed.
"This story tells us a truth. Not every story ends in tragedy. There may be surprises."
Li Shimin's whole body is not feeling well. Where is the surprise here?
The corners of Li Xiuning's mouth raised quietly and lightly, and then gradually went away.
"Little nephew, where are you?!" At this time, a bold and heroic voice suddenly sounded not far away.
With a smile on his face and a proud heart, Yang Qian suddenly shuddered.
#####
No, I would rather dig a hole and bury myself than let Li Xiuning see herself being lifted up in shame.
It is too detrimental to my humble image of being rich and handsome.
"What did he do?" Li Shimin, who was stunned, came to his senses after a long time.
I only saw Yang Qian's slightly hasty back walking away.
Zheng Shanyuan chuckled: "I think he went to see his uncle."
When he thought of General Han Shi'er, Zheng Shanyuan felt very lucky that he did not have such a relative.
"Uncle, uncle, and nephew are here." Yang Qian had already reached the outskirts of the banquet, and then he shouted loudly.
"Little nephew, tell me quickly, what happened to your mother?" This time, uncle Han Shi'er's expression looked very serious and dignified.
Looking at his serious uncle, Yang Qian looked around, then lowered his voice and replied.
"...Qian wanted to spend more time with his mother, so that's why he said this."
"That's good. You scared my uncle just now." Han Shi'er breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let me tell you, with your mother's body and bones, how can she be frail and sickly?"
"In the past few days, uncle and I have been in His Majesty's presence, and it is difficult to escape.
You were attacked in Xingze before, and you met the enemy in Yangzijin that day, and my uncle already knew about it. Alas..."
Seeing his uncle's sad and annoyed look, Yang Qian felt extremely moved and warm in his heart. "Uncle, you don't have to feel guilty..."
"What am I guilty of?!" Han Shi'er looked at Yang Qian in confusion.
"I think my little nephew, although you are talented and knowledgeable, you don't have the martial arts to defend yourself. This is not okay.
If someone chops it up, wouldn't it weaken the reputation of our old Han family?"
"???" Yang Qian's face turned dark.
Should I use my sword to fight with my uncle? Or should I be grateful for my uncle's concern?
ps: Thanks to the book friend Leg God Abu La for the thousand-coin reward, and the reward from Love in Heaven and Earth. Also to my dear book friends for their collection and recommendation support, I am grateful and continue to pray shamelessly.
