Chapter 143 Xuanyuan Jing'an
This is just an interview at the Duke's Mansion, and my wife has already attracted a peach blossom.
If Hu Xiner were really left alone to be a servant, not to mention the pain of missing her that would be inconsolable.
I'm afraid that within three days, Feng Ge, Yun Ge, and Liu Ge will all come to force me to abdicate!
Mu Qing was determined to defend her position as the empress.
Hu Xiner smacked her lips and smelled a strong smell of vinegar in the air.
Feng Ge's incident happened many days ago, and Mu Qing even drinks this kind of vinegar. I'm afraid he is the reincarnation of an old vinegar spirit!
"Being a servant boy, I go in the morning and come back in the evening. It won't affect other matters. But my identity needs to be kept secret. Yunqiu, I'll trouble you to cover for me during this period."
After returning home, Hu Xiner said to Yun Qiu.
Mu Qing nodded and said, "It's not appropriate to publicize my being a study partner. These days, just say that the young master and his wife are studying behind closed doors."
Yun Qiu knew that the young master and his wife had entrusted this matter to him, which showed their trust in him.
So he said seriously: "Yun Qiu will definitely get things done!"
In fact, Hu Xiner had already inquired the princess in detail. If he were a servant from an ordinary family, it would be very degrading to go to the Lu family with such an identity.
Although the Duke's Mansion was nominally recruiting a schoolboy, in reality it was because the grandson was too naughty and they couldn't find a suitable teacher.
That's why General Xuanyuan had a sudden idea to recruit talents from the public.
So even if this matter is exposed, it won’t matter much.
But it can be used to test whether Yun Qiu is loyal.
After Yun Qiu left, Hu Xin'er warned Mu Qing, "In the Duke's Mansion, I must pretend that I don't know him. I can't reveal that we are husband and wife."
Mu Qing was helpless: "I understand, cousin."
"Then starting tomorrow, I'll be your cousin Lu Wanwan." Hu Xin'er chuckled and called out crisply, "Cousin!"
Mu Qing's heart was moved when he heard this, and his eyes dimmed slightly: "Cousin, how come your foot injury suddenly healed?"
Hu Xin'er looked away guiltily...
After a tiring night, the two went to the Duke's Mansion.
On the first day of being a servant, the housekeeper took them to familiarize themselves with the environment.
"This is the study." The butler stopped beside a rockery.
Hu Xiner looked up and saw that the study in the Duke's Mansion was even bigger than her bookstore in town!
According to the land prices in Beijing, all her savings would probably not be enough to buy one square meter.
What a rich and inhumane person!
Moreover, this mansion is different from the Lu family. The hierarchy in the Duke's Mansion is strict. As they walked along the way, the butler was explaining the rules of the Duke's Mansion to them.
It was also specifically emphasized that servants were not allowed to enter certain places, and they would be punished if they entered without permission.
Hu Xiner asked quietly, "What's the punishment?"
"Of course you will be fined a monthly fee. If you displease the master, you will be fired." The butler took the two men to another room and introduced them.
"This is Mr. Jian Yue, who specially trained you on the rules."
Because they had previous experience in the palace, Hu Xiner and Mu Qing did not make any mistakes during the training.
But I was still exhausted when I got home.
The next day, Hu Xiner separated from Mu Qing as soon as she entered the door. She was in high spirits as she was finally going to see the real person.
I don't know why, but the butler seemed a little nervous when leading the way.
"This is the young master's study." said the butler
Hu Xiner found that the study in front of her seemed different from yesterday. She was about to ask, but she couldn't find the housekeeper.
When I turned around, the butler had already run away quickly.
"What's going on?" Hu Xin'er was confused, but the butler would not lead the way randomly. This should be the study of the Duke's grandson, Xuanyuan Jing'an.
She pushed open the study door and walked in puzzled.
The huge study was empty, filled with countless books, many of which were rare.
The rosewood bookshelf exudes a faint fragrance, and in the quiet study, the only sound is Hu Xiner's footsteps.
"Young Master?" Hu Xiner tried to call his name.
The housekeeper didn't tell her that the young master had gone out.
And if the young master goes out, why doesn't he take his servant with him?
"Xuanyuan Jing'an?" Hu Xin'er called out again. If there was really no one there, she would go out and ask the housekeeper what was going on.
Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking through the air.
Hu Xiner was nearly hit, and subconsciously moved sideways to dodge it, only to see that it was actually an inkstone flying past!
The inkstone fell to the ground and splashed ink all over her.
A little boy in purple climbed down the ladder from the beam and pointed at Hu Xin'er and laughed, "You big fool, come and chase me!"
Hu Xiner raised her hand to check her body. There was ink everywhere. This dress was ruined!
"Are you Xuanyuan Jing'an?" She couldn't help but feel a little angry when she was treated like this as soon as they met.
"Who are you to dare to call me by my name?" Xuanyuan Jing'an snorted disdainfully. Although he was young, he actually had some domineering airs!
Hu Xiner forced herself to suppress her anger and told herself that he was just a child and she couldn't argue with him.
Seeing that she ignored him, Xuanyuan Jing'an became even more arrogant and domineering: "Hey, newcomer, ask around, I'm the most powerful one in the Duke's Mansion!"
"Really?" Hu Xin'er raised an eyebrow. "You're the most powerful, so where does General Xuanyuan rank?"
Xuanyuan Jing'an was furious and said, "How dare you! I'll have someone drag you out and beat you to death."
As the grandson of General Xuanyuan, he naturally practiced martial arts since he was a child and was as strong as a calf.
He got so angry that he rushed over like a little firecracker. Hu Xiner was caught off guard and was almost knocked against the wall by him.
Xuanyuan Jing'an succeeded in his attack and became even more excited: "You little bastard, take this punch from grandpa!"
Among the thirty-six strategies, running away is the best one!
Hu Xiner dodged and started a chase with Xuanyuan Jing'an in the study.
Of course, she didn't dare to hit Xuanyuan Jing'an, but Xuanyuan Jing'an was so angry that he didn't care about anything!
He actually picked up the broken pieces of the inkstone on the ground and threw them at her, then laughed out loud as he watched her dodge in a panic.
"What do you think? Are you scared now? Kneel down and kowtow to me 80 times, and I'll let you go!"
But how could Hu Xiner show weakness? It was only the first day and she was suppressed by a little brat. How miserable would her future be!
"You're going to let me go? I'm your grandfather's tutor. If you go and complain later, who knows who will suffer!"
Hu Xiner was swearing and complaining in her heart.
This is not Xuanyuan Jing'an at all, it's clearly Xuanyuan Noisy!
"What's going on?"
General Xuanyuan happened to pass by and stood at the door to question.
As soon as Xuanyuan Jing'an saw the Duke, he immediately became as quiet as a chicken.
"Speak!" General Xuanyuan's eyes widened.
Xuanyuan Jing'an argued, "Grandpa, it was this new guy's clumsiness that broke the inkstone!"
