Fu Xiaoguan also widened his eyes.
No, why is this uncle sneaking here?
Although it was nothing special for the uncle and nephew to live together in such a place, Fu Xiaoguan always felt a little awkward, so he looked at Yan Liangze, and Yan Liangze also looked at him.
Both of them were very confused. They looked at each other and suspected each other, but they didn't know that Xu Huaishu was trying to hide from people and just bumped into them.
Xu Huaishu was also very embarrassed.
What the hell, I finally got out to enjoy myself, why is it so unpleasant?
The key point is that the little bastard Fu Xiaoguan actually brought Xu Xinyan with him - no matter what, this girl is now his daughter in name, and it would not be a good thing for the father and daughter to meet in such an occasion.
He really wanted to turn around and walk out as if nothing happened, but Qin Mowen and his group were still outside.
There was really a wolf in front and a tiger behind, and Xu Huaishu was immediately caught in a dilemma.
Fu Xiaoguan stood up, laughed, and walked towards Xu Huaishu, but at this moment, the reception girl pushed open the door, her face turned pale with fright.
This old man doesn't know the rules. This is Miss Sakura's room. If he makes the guests inside unhappy, he will definitely be scolded by the madam.
She walked in, smiled triumphantly, and grabbed Xu Huaishu, "Master, you've come to the wrong place. Come with me out now."
Fu Xiaoguan had just walked in front of Xu Huaishu when Qin Mowen and his group happened to pass by. Coincidentally, Qin Mowen turned his head and took a look inside.
Oh shit!
Fu Xiaoguan is here!
He will set off for Guanxi Road to take up his post tomorrow, so he went to Fu's house specifically to meet Fu Xiaoguan again. However, he did not expect that the people in Fu's house said that the boy had gone out and they did not know where he had gone.
This made Qin Mowen very regretful. He originally wanted to ask Fu Xiaoguan for more advice on people's livelihood and business strategies, but it seems he will have to wait until next year.
It just so happened that they met here, so Qin Mowen brought a group of people and blocked their way in without any hesitation.
Xu Huaishu was desperate, but the adaptability he had developed over the years in officialdom suddenly came into play at this moment.
He straightened up, stroked his short beard, and gently patted the reception girl's hand. He smiled at Fu Xiaoguan, then turned and bowed to the Third Princess, saying slowly, "Poetry, literature, and etiquette are the essence of the Yu Dynasty. Today, I have some free time and have come here to experience them. Seeing this scene, I am deeply moved. It is true that poetry and literature are spread far and wide! Lyrics and music are the best carriers of poetry and should be carried forward!"
Qin Mowen and others were stunned. What did Minister Xu mean?
Oh, he is in charge of the Ministry of Rites, so naturally he needs to understand rituals, music, and folk etiquette and education. Lord Xu's intentions this time are really good, and he should be a role model for us.
Then, Qin Mowen bowed to Xu Huaishu and said, "Lord Xu, this is a sign of someone who cares about his people even when he's in a high position. I admire that."
Xu Huaishu's old face flushed, thankfully covered by his warm hat. He returned the greeting and said quickly, "Lord Qin, thank you for your kind words. As someone whose salary is paid by the emperor, I should share his worries. This is my duty... You guys enjoy yourselves, I won't disturb you any more."
As he said this, he looked at Fu Xiaoguan and said seriously, "Xiaoguan, don't get drunk. Remember to take Xinyan back early."
He turned and left in a hurry as if his butt was on fire. Fu Xiaoguan stared blankly at Xu Huaishu's disappearing back, thinking that this uncle was really an amazing person. I haven't even said a word to him, so why did he barge in?
As soon as Xu Huaishu left, the place suddenly became lively.
Fu Xiaoguan led everyone to sit at a round table. Yinghua ordered two maids to open a bottle of Xishan Tianchun, fill it for everyone, and serve on the side.
Fu Xiaoguan naturally introduced Yan Liangze, Qin Mowen and others to each other, and they got to know each other after drinking together.
However, Qin Mowen and others felt something was strange - the result of the negotiation was now known to everyone in the court, and Fu Xiaoguan had dealt a heavy blow to the Yi Kingdom. In their opinion, the Yi Kingdom's prince had lost his wife and his soldiers, and would definitely resent Fu Xiaoguan. However, they did not expect that the prince would actually invite Fu Xiaoguan to a banquet tonight - this is unfair!
Could it be that this prince is a fool?
Naturally, they ignored this fool and drank happily with Fu Xiaoguan.
Fu Xiaoguan saw that Yan Liangze was very embarrassed. The key point was that he had an important matter to explain to Yan Liangze, and he obviously couldn't tell him directly in front of so many people. So, he patted Yan Liangze on the shoulder:
"When will Brother Yan return home?"
"We'll set off early tomorrow morning."
"...It's a bit rushed, but it's better to go back earlier. Come with me for a while."
He stood up and said to Qin Mowen and others, "You guys drink first, I'll have a few words with Brother Yan."
Xu Xinyan also stood up and followed Fu Xiaoguan closely.
Ning Yuchun took one look and said with a smile, "You don't know this woman, do you? Xu Xinyan, the daughter of Minister Xu, and the cousin of that kid Fu Xiaoguan... I think this kid might attack his cousin."
Qin Mowen sighed: "Such beautiful women have all been harmed by that boy. It's a pity that I am nearly thirty years old and still alone. Come on, let's drink and don't talk about such sad things."
Fu Xiaoguan took Yan Liangze, who was full of doubts, out of the door. Leaning against the fence, he looked at Yan Liangze and said seriously, "Brother Yan, pay this bill and go back to rest first. I have something for you..."
He pulled out a flintlock rifle and a bag of bullets from his sleeve pocket. "You should have seen this thing before. I'll give you one. It can be used for self-defense or to kill people."
Yan Liangze was delighted, this is a powerful weapon!
He took it and asked, "Aren't you worried about Yiguo going there to learn?"
"You're wrong. Our two countries have already signed a treaty of peace and friendship, which means we're allies. Feel free to research this, but remember... the prerequisite is that you can ascend the throne of the Yi Kingdom."
Yan Liangze put away his gun and bullets and bowed to Fu Xiaoguan very cautiously: "I have misunderstood you, Brother Fu. I apologize to you. Now that I have this deadly weapon in my hand, please wait for good news from me!"
As he spoke, he took out a stack of banknotes from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Fu Xiaoguan, "I won't drink with you anymore. There's still a long way to go!"
"There is still a long way to go. I wish Brother Yan good news soon!"
"When I ascend the throne, I will invite Brother Fu and Yu Tailin to have a drink and chat happily!"
"Remember the many talents of barbarian women!"
"Hahahaha, I will arrange for a stunning foreign girl when the time comes. Brother Fu, please be careful not to hurt your waist."
Fu Xiaoguan put the banknote away and shook Yan Liangze's hand. "I am quite confident about this."
"That's good. I'll take my leave!"
"Goodbye, I won't see you off!"
