After returning home, Muchuan tried to keep Qin Huaidao for dinner, but the man was anxious to go back and talk to Qin Qiong, so he refused to keep him.
"Master, who was that boy just now?"
Seeing Qin Huaidao walking away, Gao Kan came up and asked curiously.
Muchuan smiled lightly and said: "Qin Qiong's eldest son Qin Huaidao."
Hearing this, Gao Kan couldn't help but be shocked.
"He is actually Marshal Qin's son, but this Mr. Qin doesn't look like a general."
"He is indeed not this material."
Muchuan shook his head and said with emotion: "The older generation is withering away day by day, but the new generation has few mainstay talents. It is really sad and ridiculous."
Indeed, no matter what era, it is difficult for the descendants of heroes to continue the glory of their parents.
Dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, and mice's sons can dig holes. This principle is not completely applicable to humans.
Muchuan no longer paid attention to this matter, he had more important things to deal with.
In the study room, Muchuan called Di Renjie.
After this period of study, Di Renjie fully demonstrated what it means to be as intelligent as a demon.
In just a few days, he has actually mastered the books Muchuan prepared for him, and now he can even serve as a technical consultant in the workshop.
"Huaiying, my teacher plans to give you a very difficult task."
Muchuan plans to let Di Renjie board a new ship and go to Baekje to pick up Xiaoying and others.
After hearing the content of the task, Di Renjie readily agreed.
If he can't accomplish such a small thing, then he's not worthy of being Muchuan's disciple.
"correct!"
Before Di Renjie left, Muchuan suddenly thought of something and stopped Di Renjie again.
"Master, do you have any other instructions?"
"Go to the Qin Mansion and tell General Qin that if he doesn't mind, you can take a ship with us."
Hearing this, Di Renjie couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
"Master, then we have to take a long detour."
It is indeed possible to reach Goguryeo by sea, but compared to the original destination of the ship, Baekje, it takes a lot of detours.
Muchuan smiled and said: "Don't worry, it won't take long. The speed of the steamship is much faster than you think."
Di Renjie thought of the scene he saw during the trial voyage, and quite agreed with Muchuan's words.
Good guy, a steamship is faster than a horse-drawn carriage on the river. If it were on a wider sea and there were no speed restrictions, wouldn't it be like flying?
In short, after Di Renjie received the order, he followed it.
After arranging this matter, Muchuan had a little leisure time.
The next important thing to deal with is to accompany Wu Yuanhua to the Wu family to propose marriage.
So Muchuan went to look for Wu Yuanhua and planned to discuss when to set off.
This matter may be said to be light or heavy.
It's light because if you leave it alone for a while, apart from Wu Yuanhua complaining, there won't be any other losses.
The main reason is that the Wu family fully thought that Wu Yuanhua had entered the palace, but after such a long time, the court had not contacted them. They were definitely worried. If it took a little longer and the Wu family came to Chang'an, they might be worried about it.
Wu Yuanhua's reputation had an impact.
After all, living in a man's house without being married is a disgraceful thing, whether in ancient times or modern times.
Arriving at Wu Yuanhua's room, Muchuan found that Wu Yuanhua was not in the room.
After asking the maid, Muchuan found out that Wu Yuanhua had gone shopping.
This little girl is quite leisurely and elegant.
Muchuan shook his head, feeling a little helpless.
It seems that no matter what era it is, shopping has a strong appeal to women.
Forget it, let's discuss this matter when she comes back.
Muchuan rarely had any leisure time, so he took Gao Kan and a hunting bow with him, intending to go hunting and practice his archery skills.
When I was in Cairo before, I almost lost my system due to my poor archery skills.
Muchuan has always been concerned about this matter, so when he has time, he will naturally strengthen his shortcomings.
Not long after Muchuan and his party left the house, several guests suddenly came to the door.
"We are Princess Wencheng's maids, and we are here to deliver gifts to the Prince Consort on behalf of the Princess."
As soon as these maids opened their mouths, the servants in Mu Mansion were stunned.
Although they had never heard of Princess Wencheng, she was still a princess, and they were not someone they could afford to offend.
What makes them curious is, when did their young master become the prince-in-law again?
Out of curiosity, the people of Mu Mansion quickly invited several people into the mansion.
These maids walked around and looked at everything in Mu's mansion with judgmental eyes.
"Tsk, tsk, this Mu Mansion is really impressive. You are worthy of being a celebrity by your Majesty's side."
"Who says it isn't? Hey, look, why is there a bastard in the pool?"
Following the expectations of their companions, everyone saw a fat turtle nestled on a rock in the pond.
There was nothing special about the turtle. What shocked them was that the turtle was actually wearing a jade pendant that looked quite expensive at first glance, even though it was only half of it.
"Master Mu is really rich and powerful. Even the bastard in his house wears such good accessories."
"Hey, it looks like we are about to change things this time. When Li Xueyan gets married, we can also enjoy it."
The people from Mu Mansion who led the way naturally listened to the words of these maids.
He was a little dissatisfied. Why was the maid next to the princess so bad in character?
Even if you really have such an idea, you wouldn't say it here. You have to mention it in private chat anyway, right?
In short, everyone in the Mu family did not have much favorable impressions of Princess Wencheng who was about to marry.
At the same time, I also complained about the injustice for Muchuan.
After all, my young master is also a talented person. Why would Your Majesty betroth such a princess to the young master?
When everyone came to the reception room, the maids were not polite at all. As soon as they sat down, they took the cakes, honey and water and ate them.
"These things are so delicious. What a wonderful job!"
"Come on, try this. It smells sour, but tastes sweet and sour. It's delicious!"
Seeing how many people were devouring their food, everyone in Mu Mansion frowned slightly.
If they hadn't come here to give gifts, they would really want to drive these rude people out right now.
At this time, the acting housekeeper of Mu Mansion finally came over.
This acting housekeeper was used to replace Di Renjie. His ability was not outstanding, but he had worked in Mu Mansion for a long time and was highly regarded. Mu Chuan had no choice but to let him be the acting housekeeper for the time being.
job.
"You guys have been waiting for a long time. I am the acting housekeeper of Mu Mansion. You can call me Butler Mu."
Butler Mu had a smile on his face, but his attitude towards welcoming guests was very good.
"Butler? Or an agent?"
One of the maids looked displeased and said, "We are here to deliver gifts on behalf of the princess. What use can a little butler like you do! Call your master out!"
As soon as he said this, Butler Mu's face became ugly.
Master? I don’t know how many years have passed since my death. Who in Chang’an doesn’t know that the Mu family only has a young master but no master.
Manager Mu has already characterized these people as deliberately making things difficult.
"I'm sorry to you guys, it's inconvenient for my master, why don't you go and invite him yourself?"
