Pan Ming rode straight to the city gate. The city guards all knew the young master, so he quickly informed the city guard leader. The city guard leader only thought that the county guard would send someone to pick him up. Unexpectedly, the young master came in person and hurriedly came out of the room to greet him.
Pan Ming opened his mouth and asked where the master was, and the city guard leader hurriedly led him into the city guard room. While waiting, he had already invited Qingyu and his party to rest in the city guard room.
Zhufeng was drinking hot tea. Although this tea was far inferior to what he drank in Xuanmen, it was better than nothing.
The city guard leader led Pan Ming to Zhufeng, first pointed at Zhufeng and introduced, "Young Master, this is the Master." Then he said to Zhufeng: "Master, this is the Lord Sheriff's son.
"
Zhufeng took the lead and stood up, followed by Qingyu and others, saying goodbye to each other.
Pan Ming looked at Zhufeng like a treasure, "You're the one who said it would snow at three quarters and stop at two quarters?"
Zhufeng smiled slightly and nodded. He said it, but it was his head junior sister who told him.
After receiving the affirmation, Pan Ming's face turned red with excitement. Last night, the master left overnight. He was still very sad. He didn't expect that God would give him another great magical power today. He happened to encounter a snow stop on the way here. He deliberately looked at it.
It's the last moment.
"How can the master condescend to such a humble house? Master, hurry up and follow the apprentice. Let's go to the county governor's house." After saying this, he grabbed Zhufeng's sleeve and pulled it out.
Zhufeng looked confused, "Master?"
Pan Ming chuckled and said, "Master, I don't know. My disciple has been waiting for you for many days. We are destined to be masters and disciples. Don't worry about titles for now. I will give you three kowtows after my disciple has settled you in, master."
Bow nine times and perform the apprenticeship ceremony." After saying that, he pulled him out without any explanation.
Zhufeng was pulled to follow him, turned around, and looked at the others inexplicably.
Qingyu pursed her lips and smiled. Although the eldest brother had many direct disciples, this was the first time he had seen one like this. The governor's son was quite an interesting person.
Seeing Zhufeng and others being taken away, the city guard leader immediately breathed a sigh of relief and watched him off respectfully as if he were sending off a giant Buddha. It wasn't until they were far away that a city guard turned to the city guard leader with confusion on his face:
"Boss, are these people really masters? They don't even look like them." They look more like refugees. Their clothes are so tattered that they don't even know how to patch them.
The city guard leader glanced at him and said, "You can't judge a person by his appearance. You guard the city gate every day, how many people have you seen coming in and out? You don't have any ability at all."
These people, especially the master's family, are by no means ordinary people. You can tell just by looking at the way they drink tea.
One of them has a stiff face and stiff movements, and should be a commoner;
But the other one's demeanor and movements are all natural and pleasing to the eye, and his temperament is completely different from you and me, which is definitely not what ordinary people can have."
The city guard suddenly nodded and looked at the city guard leader with a little more reverence.
But Pan Ming led Zhufeng away and said guiltily: "Master, it's all my fault that my disciple didn't think well and came out in such a hurry. The carriage couldn't wait for a while. I've wronged the master."
Zhufeng couldn't help but laugh: "Aren't you a master everywhere?" With such an attitude of buying and selling by force, shouldn't anyone be able to be his master?
Pan Ming paused and laughed and said: "Not too much, not too much." There were probably about a dozen abbots, abbots, and temple masters.
Zhufeng shook his head and took out his arm, "I don't accept disciples, so don't call me. I won't teach you if I call you."
"Master, my apprentice understands that you have to go through an adaptation process. Don't worry, my apprentice doesn't ask you to teach me anything. You just need to let your apprentice serve you by your side, and that's enough." Pan Ming smiled.
Zhufeng blinked and pulled a few more times before pulling his arm out.
Pan Ming didn't know it at all, but when he saw the carriage coming, he respectfully said, "The carriage is coming. Master, please get in."
Zhufeng:......
The two families each got into a carriage, and Pan Ming sat on the shaft of the carriage that Qingyu and his family were riding in. Then he whispered to the coachman, "Take the door on Pucheng Street."
The coachman nodded in understanding, roared, and the horse started to gallop.
In the car, Zhufeng rubbed his arms to get rid of the goosebumps all over his body. Then he felt more comfortable. Then he looked at Qingyu and the others helplessly and speechlessly: This kid is so scary.
Wen Ya raised her eyebrows: Congratulations to Elder Zhufeng for gaining his first beloved disciple in the world.
Hong Tao blinked her eyes excitedly: He is a man of wealth and wealth. He will have no worries about food and clothing throughout his life. Senior brother, if you take him in, it means that we will also have no worries about food and clothing.
Shi'an smiled slightly: He is a good boy, very well-behaved.
Qingyu looked out the car window and thought about what "that door on Pucheng Street" meant. It wasn't a front door, but a back door? It wasn't the county governor who sent someone, but the county governor's son came in person. She vaguely felt that it wasn't that simple.
The carriage drove for two or three moments and finally arrived at the Sheriff's Mansion. Qingyu got out of the car and saw the words "June Sheriff's Mansion" on the door plaque and the door that was only half a foot wide.
Pan Ming glanced at Qingyu and the others with some worry. No one was in any unusual mood. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and then led the way: "Master, please follow me."
Pan Ming led them around seven or eight turns in the Sheriff's Mansion and passed three or four small gardens. Finally, the group stopped in a courtyard. Pan Ming led everyone into the courtyard and said: "Master, please go first."
Rest here while I prepare lunch."
After Pan Ming left, Qingyu's family began to wander around the yard. There were five rooms in the yard, which was just enough to live in.
Zhao Qian and Tong had never seen such a nice place. The yard was spotless, and this was also the county governor's house, where the officials lived. The couple were very cautious, fearing that their feet would make the ground dirty.
The second baby and the third baby also wanted to walk around the yard, but they were stopped by Zhao Qian and Tong. The couple signaled the two children not to mess around.
Wen Ya noticed their restraint and stepped forward to persuade them: "Go inside and rest."
The couple looked at each other, and they both saw the shame in each other's eyes. They were able to receive this kind of treatment only because they followed the Qingyu family. In fact, the two families had no relationship at all, and even they themselves felt embarrassed.
Blushing, the young master didn't invite them.
Suddenly, a group of servants walked in at the entrance of the courtyard, each carrying water and clothes. It was obviously arranged by Pan Ming. The couple saw that the servants were all well-dressed, and they became more and more embarrassed.
"Come on, let's sit inside first. Why are you standing there?" Zhufeng pulled Zhao Qian into the room. Tong had to drag the three children to follow. Zhao Qian was a little embarrassed, "We...here..."
Hongtao took Qingyu to a room. After the servant filled the room with hot water, they closed the door and took a comfortable hot bath.
However, the clothes prepared for them were not worn. They all still wore their own clothes. But this time, they put the new clothes on the outside and the old clothes on the inside. They combed their hair again, wiped their faces, and poured them clean.
Also pretty and cute.
Qingyu and Hongtao came out after washing up, and everyone else was there. Their faces looked very red, obviously they had just taken a hot bath.
Zhufeng couldn't help but sigh, "It's been a long time since we've seen days like this." This made the other four Xuanmen members also sigh.
Not long after, Pan Ming came in with eight maids carrying food. But just as the maids were preparing to set the table, they heard a voice saying "Young Master" at the door of the courtyard.
Pan Ming visibly stiffened, then left a smile on everyone's face and hurried out.
"Master Huang, why are you here?" Pan Ming looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, his father's right-hand subordinate, Chief Chronicler Shi Huangji.
