2 I am a dandy prince
◎Not a great writer◎
He didn't know that the scene just now was that Bai Yu came over in a sedan chair, and before he could stand firmly, he started coughing.
In addition, in the morning, Bai Yu felt that the ancient weather was too hot and there was no air conditioning, so she specially wore clothes made of moon gauze. Clothes made of this material were thin and breathable, which made Bai Yu look thin and weak.
As for sitting on a soft sedan chair, it obviously means that the body is extremely uncomfortable, so one would sit on a soft sedan chair even at home.
Marquis Anping and his wife were heartbroken, while General Xie and his son looked ashamed.
He hesitated to speak, as if something was not right.
While he was in a daze, An Lanhui quickly came forward and said softly, "Why did you leave? You are not well yet. Yan'er, come and help me help the prince to stay in the inner hall. Don't let him get caught in the cold wind."
"Yes, ma'am." The maid responded.
"My Lord, it's my fault that I didn't teach him well enough. I let this useless boy do such a bad thing. What are you doing standing there? Why don't you go in and apologize to the prince?"
Looking at the backs of the mother and son walking away, General Xie turned to speak to Marquis Anping on the side, and then whispered a rebuke to Xie Mingxuan who was standing on the other side.
"Your Excellency is joking. This was an accident. Besides, my son is also at fault. He has never been a contented person since he was young." Seeing General Xie pushing Xie Mingxuan into the house, Marquis Anping spoke quickly.
The two of them passed the buck to each other and were polite to each other.
When Lady Anping Hou entered the room and saw Bai Yu resting, she went out to prepare food and later entertained General Xie and his son.
"Mom, some of the food this morning was not to your taste. I gave it to the maids and servants." Bai Yu called An Lanhui and told her what happened in the morning.
"Yu'er can make the decision on these matters." An Lanhui smiled and touched Bai Yu's head. "Yu'er, take a good rest. I'll go to the back kitchen to take a look."
Bai Yu stayed in the room for a while, then looked up and saw Xie Mingxuan standing at the door. Not knowing what to do, she snorted and said in a dull tone, "What are you doing here?"
"...I...I...come to apologize." Xie Mingxuan said weakly.
"Then why are you standing there? Sit down. I'm not going to eat you. Where's the courage you had when you argued with me? Why are you so timid now?"
"I'm not...no..." He muttered a few words.
"What are you mumbling about?"
"I passed by there and saw you forcing the boss to sell the goods to you at the door. I went over to argue with you, but you didn't listen..." Xie Mingxuan simply said loudly.
Bai Yu didn't expect that Xie Mingxuan's words were not the situation of the two fighting in the original owner's memory. As expected, human memory is still very deceptive.
But this is not what Xie Mingxuan meant by "force".
The original owner had already ordered a vase, but when he went to pick it up, the owner unexpectedly changed his mind and refused to sell it. After asking around, he found out that a customer had offered a higher price.
However, these white jades were not explained to the silly boy in front of him. One more person who thinks he is a playboy means more power.
He just interrupted Xie Mingxuan and said, "So the result is that I was unconscious in bed for two days and almost couldn't wake up, and now you come to blame me?"
Xie Mingxuan was speechless now. Thinking of how fragile and weak she looked just now, he felt guilty and just stood there in a daze.
Come to think of it, looking at the scene in my memory, I originally thought that Xie Mingxuan was the type of person who wields swords and guns and has a hot temper, but I didn't expect him to be a soft bun. Bai Yu looked at Xie Mingxuan.
At this time, Xie Mingxuan finally sorted out his thoughts. He stood up, took a deep breath, and said to himself:
"A few days ago, I accidentally caused you to fall into a coma. If it happens again, I will do the same thing. I apologize to you, Your Highness."
The air suddenly froze, and the two looked at each other in silence. Bai Yu stared at Xie Mingxuan intently.
Xie Mingxuan shouted in his heart, It's over, it's over, it's over, Dad, please come and save me. This prince must be thinking about pulling out my tendons and ripping my bones.
Bai Yu did not, on the contrary he admired this upright attitude very much. As a playboy, this practice of bullying a good person played an important role in establishing his character.
It’s a pity that no outsiders were present at this time.
"Apologize? In that case, just treat me as your little brother. From now on, when I ask you to go out, you must agree." Xie Mingxuan was shouting madly in his heart, but when he heard the man in front of him speak, his tone was cold and his face was expressionless.
Just as Xie Mingxuan was about to say something more, the maidservant of Anping Marquis's wife pushed the door open and said, "Prince."
"What's wrong? Yan'er."
"Lord, please ask Master Xie to go to the front hall."
Led by the maid, Xie Mingxuan walked through one corridor after another and arrived at the front hall. Before he entered the door, he heard laughter inside.
After listening carefully, he found that his father and Anping Hou had become brothers.
"Haha, you are serious, brother Xian. I'll leave this matter to you."
"Brother Yi, don't worry. I still have some connections in Songzhu Academy. I will go home and write a few letters. I think good news will reach your house soon."
"In that case, I will offer you a toast."
"Hahaha, Brother Yi, don't worry, come and drink, drink."
Turning around and seeing him standing at the door, Anping Hou said, "Mingxuan is here."
He turned to the servant beside him and said, "Come and take a seat."
"Mingxuan has met the Marquis."
"Hahahaha, my nephew is so polite. In the future, when Yu'er goes to Songzhu Academy, I will have to trouble you to take care of her." Marquis Anping laughed loudly.
"Are you going to send the prince to Songzhu Academy?" Xie Mingxuan asked upon seeing this.
"...Alas..." At this point, Anping Hou seemed to remember something, he sighed, took a sip of wine, and said, "Don't be afraid of your mockery, my son has been very naughty since he was young. Now, while he is still young, let him go to Songzhu Academy and have a try."
Thinking back to the meeting with Yi Baiyu in the inner hall just now, he silently thought to himself that the guy didn't look like someone who would be obedient and go to school.
After eating and drinking, General Xie and his companions decided to bid farewell to Marquis Anping.
Marquis Anping escorted the two of them all the way to the carriage at the gate of the marquis' mansion.
"Please rest assured about what Brother Yi said. I believe good news will reach your house soon." Before leaving, General Xie said to Marquis Anping again.
"Then I will wait here for good news." Marquis Anping bowed.
"Master." Looking at the shadow of the carriage gradually going away,
An Lanhui's voice came from behind.
"Ma'am, why are you here?"
"Master, are we really going to send Yu'er to Songzhu Academy?"
He stepped forward and held An Lanhui's hand, and whispered: "Madam, we will talk about it in detail when we get back."
After entering the house, the two of them sat down. He said, "Yu'er, you know his temper. We can't discipline him well, and he won't even attend the lessons of the teacher we hired. What will happen to him in the future? Why don't we send him to Songzhu Academy as soon as possible and give it a try?"
"It's not that I don't understand the reason, but when I think about the fact that Yu'er has never left us since he was a child, and now that he's gone, I..." An Lanhui's eyes were red.
"Madam, don't worry. Songzhu Academy was opened by the late emperor's teacher, so the conditions there are not bad. I heard from my colleagues that His Majesty has sent the prince to study there." Marquis Anping comforted.
"Alas... I hope Yu'er can understand our painstaking efforts."
Seeing An Lanhui gradually calm down, he spoke carefully:
"Madam, I want to wait until Yu'er recovers, then I will let him study in the study room, and he is not allowed to go anywhere before going to Songzhu Academy."
"It's up to the master to arrange it."
At this time, Bai Yu, who was being discussed by the two, sneezed several times in succession, prompting Chuanfu beside him to come forward and put a coat on Bai Yu.
"But it's a cold wind today when we went out, why don't we ask the kitchen to prepare some ginger soup?" Chuanfu said.
"Nothing, um, just a little itchy nose."
After four or five days, Bai Yu was no longer ill and recovered, and Anping Hou began to fulfill what he had said a few days ago.
He confined Bai Yu to the study and forbade her to go anywhere.
According to Bai Yu's understanding, even if you play in the study, you can be indirectly influenced by the knowledge atmosphere, which is better than playing outside.
An Lanhui also hardened her heart. Apart from asking the maids to bring some lotus seed soup every day, she never came again.
Bai Yu was really bored staying in the study room all day. He could only contact the system when there was something urgent to do. He couldn't read books without anyone to chat with.
But he thought of the system store, where there were things that could help him pass the time.
I opened the system store and searched for videos, and suddenly, all kinds of them came flooding in, and they only cost one mission coin.
Thinking that his mission was in ancient times, Bai Yu found a costume film to watch.
"Prince, this is today's lunch."
"Leave it there for now. I'll eat it myself later."
"yes."
I was so focused on staring at the screen in front of me that I didn’t even have time to take in my meals, which was the time I looked forward to the most.
Because at this moment, the TV series in front of them has reached a wonderful scene. The princess, the heroine, is going to marry the second male lead, a playboy, and the hero comes to snatch the bride.
The dandy boy chased after the heroine and grabbed her hand, saying, "Woman, you can't escape from my grasp," and then threw a handful of silver to the crowd of onlookers...
Wow, a dandy boy can be like this!
Little did they know that there was something called white jade from ancient costume dramas in the world, and that it made an exclamation called admiration.
...Wait, Bai Yu figured it out.
In that case, why don't I watch more TV dramas to learn the tricks of the playboys in them, so that I don't have to figure out the tricks myself in the future.
A good memory is not as good as a bad pen. In order to complete the mission goals and maintain his dandy persona, he decided to copy all the key points and tricks into a notebook to remind himself all the time.
Because he decided to adapt to local customs, he chose to write in classical Chinese.
The professional courses I had taken in the mission department finally came in handy.
Thinking of the writer who was said to be specially invited by the mission department and who had left his name in the history of a certain great plane, Bai Yu couldn't help but shudder.
At that time, attending his class was a torture every time, and leaving homework was a kind of "torture".
Bai Yu shook his head quickly to stop thinking about it.
For several days, except for eating and sleeping, he kept writing, wandering in the ocean of TV dramas, and watching the performances of one dandy boy after another.
In order to better understand the characters' inner emotions, he also added some background stories of those playboys.
After wearing out two brushes and spending three days and three nights on it, I finally got the book "How to Become a Dandy".
His dedication and hard work are astonishing.
Bai Yu looked at the booklet in front of him that he had spent so much effort to produce, and thought silently in his heart that this year's mission department's best employee award was not enough, and he also needed an award for hard work and diligence.
Hmm...it seems like something is missing. Here it is.
After looking at the booklet for a while, he lowered his head and filled in two sentences on the blank space on the last page of the booklet, namely:
“Knowledge is the understanding of worldly affairs, and writing is the understanding of human nature.”[Note:①]
It means to remind myself to open this book more often, learn more, and read more.
I had hardly any rest these days. Bai Yu stretched his body, got up, opened the small window and looked at the sky outside. It was probably dusk.
I went back to the desk and lay down on it to take a short rest.
It was getting dark, and the boy standing outside the gate quickly lit the candlestick at the door.
When he turned around, he saw a man standing behind him. Just as he was about to speak, the other person shook his head. The servant nodded to show that he understood.
She leaned over, gently opened the door, and whispered, "My Lord, when I went to deliver lunch at noon, I saw that the prince was just like the previous few days, with his head down, writing something."
Anping Hou walked in quietly, but saw Bai Yu lying on the table, sleeping soundly:
"This child is sleepy, I don't know, go to bed and rest."
He took off his outer cape and put it on Bai Yu, "Did we go too far?"
After thinking for a while, he went to the door again and said, "Chuanfu, go and get the bed in the inner room ready."
Chuanfu nodded, walked in quietly and went to the inner room.
Marquis Anping returned to the desk. He lowered his head and gently patted Bai Yu: "Yu'er, wake up. Yu'er, wake up. It's easy to catch a cold if you sleep here."
"No... um... don't touch... don't touch my bonus."
Seeing Bai Yu twisting her body but not waking up at all, Anping Hou sighed. This child...
Um, what is this?
The action just now made Bai Yu reveal the booklet "How to Become a Dandy" that he had been holding in his hand.
What is this? Anping Hou picked up the booklet.
This is Yuer's handwriting. Hmm... it seems to be effective in the study. It's written much neater than before.
How to become a dandy? What does it mean? Confused, Anping Hou walked under the candlestick, opened the inner page, and began to read it carefully.
[People always dislike dandy people. People who dislike dandy people don't know the inner meaning of dandy people. However, the inner meaning of dandy people can be of great use.
I have heard of people playing the zither, good...]
The book first explains in detail what a dandy is, why people hate dandies, and then goes on to explain how to become a dandy. What are the common characteristics of dandies?
There are many stories about playboys in the book: some are addicted to gambling and their wives and children are separated, some are addicted to alcohol and have a miserable end, some are obsessed with antiques and jade and spend all their family property, and some are uneducated and have a bad judgement of people...
Marquis Anping originally had a nonchalant attitude and wanted to see what Bai Yu was writing recently, but he didn't expect that by the time he came back to his senses from the world in the book, an hour had passed.
This… this… this… was it really written by his son who is only a teenager? The words are full of explorations of human nature. The details show his sensitivity to human nature, which is chilling.
Looking down at Baiyu who was still sleeping on the desk, Anping Hou stroked his beard and laughed, saying: "My son Baiyu, who is alone, has the talent of fighting."
