Return of the Swallow

"Explain? I don't want to listen to your explanation! Now that you have grown up, you have more ideas, and your thoughts are deeper, so you don't take the words of an old woman to heart. You are rich and prosperous, but those good qualities have given you Lost it! As an official, if you do this, I would rather you be a cook!"

Ma threw the shoes on Pang Xiao, and turned away, "What I hate most in my life is your kind of chaotic abandonment. If you want to leave it in the early years, I won't even kick you to death because of my temper. You are stronger than others!"

Pang Xiao was holding one of Ma's shoes, and when he saw that his grandmother finally stopped beating him, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Grandma, calm down. This time, Sister Yi and I deliberately played a play."

"Is it intentional again?" Ma was a little stunned to hear that.

Pang Xiao nodded and said in a low voice, "Too many things have happened in the past two days. The sage has set up a bureau to harm me, and it is still Sister Yi who helps me think of countermeasures so that I can survive the disaster in a safe and secure manner, not only without any loss, but also He entered the pavilion smoothly and became a senior scholar of the Yingwu Palace. I have both respect and pity for her in my heart, how can I always abandon it? It's just that something happened to her family..."

Pang Xiao kidnapped the Qin family, and the gangsters took Qin Huaiyuan and his wife as hostages and forced the Qin family to send Qin Yining to the palace for the draft.

Both Yao Shi and Yao Chenggu had a heavy expression on their faces. They had always been deep in thought, and had vaguely guessed some clues.

"This is... ah! What is this called!" Ma Shi almost thumped his chest.

A good granddaughter-in-law, not to mention her personality, she has to be liked by Pang Xiao, and more importantly, she is smart and filial. She is really pleasing to the eye, who would have thought that such a thing would happen!

"Sister Yi is a good boy, she knows to think about the family." After a long silence, Yao Shi touched Pang Xiao's shoulder and arm, "Don't be too sad, there is no way out, Sister Yi. If you have your own difficulties, you can't help thinking about the overall situation, Dafu, let go if you should."

Although he knew that his mother was well-meaning, hearing Yao Shi say this, Pang Xiao's heart was still filled with panic.

"Mother, we won't end like this." Pang Xiao said very confidently.

Yao Shi said in astonishment: "Don't be obsessed, with Sister Yi's appearance and character, as long as you run for election, winning the election is inevitable. If the sage likes her, do you still plan to be angry with the crown? You don't want to die. It's gone!"

Yao Chenggu also thought of this layer, and he didn't even bother to smoke.

But Ma said: "If you really have the courage to rush to the crown and be angry,

You are also a good man! "

"mother!"

"Damn it!"

Both Yao Chenggu and Yao Shi were stunned, and invariably raised their voices.

Ma looked at Pang Xiao, then at the fox-like grandpa, and sighed: "You two are deep-minded, worry a lot, think a lot, but you can live a lifetime, don't you just live comfortably? If I was just as concerned about gains and losses as you guys back then, would I live with you, a poor jingle boy with no skills?"

Yao Chenggu touched his nose and muttered in a low voice, "Isn't it because you like to eat my dishes?"

When Ma slapped the table, the cups and cups were shaken for a while, "If I were with a dignitary, how many delicacies of mountains and seas would I not be able to eat?"

Ma Shi grabbed Pang Xiao's collar and said, "Don't imitate them, worry about this, worry about that, what else can you do?"

Holding Pang Xiao's clothes and letting him sit on the edge of the kang, Ma said earnestly: "Do you think the time in one's life is very long? In fact, it will be over in a blink of an eye! Take advantage of the fact that you have this heart, you have this strength. , go for what you like, and do what you want to do!"

"You don't need to worry about me and your grandfather, let alone your mother, anyway, we are also muddy legs. If it's a big deal, we'll start all over again. It's easier to go back to farming. How can we live? But you just remember. One point, the best hunters know how to seize the moment best, you can't use brute force, remember?"

When Pang Xiao listened to Ma's words, his heart was really touched.

Pang Xiao's mind might not understand Ma's reasoning. However, the smarter people think more comprehensively, and they are often limited by superfluous conditions. It's not as cool and happy as Ma's.

Since he followed Li Qitian to conquer the world, he gradually learned to show people with a mask, talk to people and talk to ghosts. In order to reach the peak step by step, and to protect himself, every time Pang Xiao did something, he had to go through careful attention. Thinking about it, this is where he is now.

For someone like him who has always been self-disciplined and suppressed, what is missing is the kind of pleasure from Ma Shi.

Pang Xiao's eyes were bright, and he nodded vigorously: "Grandma, I understand what you mean. In fact, Sister Yi went out like this on purpose this time, in order to solve the draft."

"Oh?" Ma asked, "She belongs to a girl's family, what can I do?"

"I'm not good at getting ahead in this matter. Because of the relationship with the Holy One, I can only be silent. So I have to do it with Sister Yi."

Pang Xiao sighed and shook his head, "Anyway, no matter what rumors you hear tomorrow, don't worry, I have a good relationship with Sister Yi, everything I do now is for the two of us to be together in the future. "

Ma Shi nodded, thinking of --\u003e\u003e

The granddaughter-in-law didn't have to change people, and I felt a lot of ironing in my heart.

Yao Chenggu and Yao shi thought a lot at once, but they didn't say much just looking at Pang Xiao's appearance.

It's just that the father and daughter both felt that things would not end so easily. Qin Yining had to do something big if he wanted to reject the draft in an open and fair manner and not serve the Holy Driver.

And things went as they expected.

In the afternoon of the next day, Mrs. Yao was talking with Mrs. Ma, when a little girl from the second door hurried in and replied, "Mrs. Tai, Madam, something is bad!"

"What's wrong? In a panic." Yao shi frowned.

The little girl said anxiously: "The lady from the Qin family went to the Shuntian government yamen to sue the prince, because the matter is big and the prince has a distinguished status, the Shuntian government did not accept it, so that lady Qin actually went to beat the drum. Sue the Royal!"

"What?" Ma Shi opened his mouth wide in shock.

Even though Pang Xiao had told her yesterday, "Don't worry no matter what rumors you hear", but things are going to be troubled by the Holy One, so what's the small matter?

"What the hell is this girl thinking? Our family's Dafu has only entered the cabinet now, and the situation is just a little bit better. It's too late to hide, why did you go and cause trouble?"

Yao Shi was much calmer than Ma Shi, he held Ma Shi's hand and said, "Mother, don't be in a hurry."

Immediately, he instructed the maid, "Look where the old man is, and let the old man come back as soon as possible. Also, can the prince be in the mansion now? If he is, call him and go."

"Yes."

The maids also knew that the matter was serious and hurried to find someone.

After a while, Yao Chenggu came back.

But Pang Xiao was not at home, he said that he had just been sent to the palace by someone ordered by the sage!

"Hurry up and invite Mr. Xu and Mr. Xie." Yao Shi was also in a hurry now.

Yao Chenggu was smoking a cigarette in the presence of the old god, and said, "You all stay calm, you will be fine."

"You damn old man, you've been smoking for a while. You're choking to death!" Mr. Ma usually disliked Yao Chenggu's smoking, but he never restrained him. Today, he was really too anxious. He grabbed the brass smoking bag pot and dipped the shredded tobacco that was just lit in the tea bowl.

"Ouch, you! Sigh!" Yao Chenggu couldn't save him in time, and he stretched his neck to look at the precious smoke that had extinguished the fire in the tea soup, but he still didn't dare to revive Fu Gang.

"Tell me, what's the matter? It confuses me. Yi girl went to sue our family Dafu, last night Dafu confidently said that Yi girl was for their future, but this is not the initiative to sue our family. Did you show your face to the Holy One?"

Yao Chenggu said dully: "You can't figure this out? Let me ask you, how did the girl come to our house?"

"It's not that Dafu brought it back that day... No, it was said that Dafu robbed girl Yi and brought her back."

"Then it's over. Dafu robbed the girl Yi and came back. Although the two of them are innocent, it's not necessarily the case that people outside see it. This is what the girl Yi takes advantage of. Is there a stain? Isn't that infidelity to the Holy One?"

"Ah?" Ma said in astonishment, "Yes, but in that case, Yi girl's reputation is..."

Yao Chenggu slowly rescued the cigarette bag pot from the tea bowl, and wiped it gently with a cloth.

"Since she arrived in the capital and was brought back by our family's great blessing, the so-called boudoir reputation has probably been ignored. Yi girl went to the saint to sue our family's great blessing. In my opinion, it is a good thing, not only can it give her a straight body. , and let the sage see with his own eyes that the Qin family is not in harmony with our family, and can also give the sage a handle on our family's great blessings, so that he can use people more at ease."

"What the old man said is very true." Xu Weizhi and Xie Yue, who were led in by Yao's confidant maid, walked to the door just in time to hear Yao Chenggu's analysis, and said with admiration, "This is indeed the truth."

The two came to pay their respects.

Yao Chenggu and Mrs. Ma did not care so much, they politely ordered someone to put a chair for refreshments, and politely asked them to take their seats.

Ma sighed: "The two gentlemen are laughing, and I am also worried about the safety of the prince. The affairs in the court are complicated, and I don't know so much as a woman, so I just want to ask the two gentlemen, is the prince okay? "

Xu Weizhi stood up, bowed his hands, and said, "Mrs. Hui Tai, whether this happens or not depends entirely on Miss Qin's performance in front of the sage. If she behaves well, the prince will not only be fine, but also It can make the sage relax a lot. Although it is a joke for outsiders to watch, it is absolutely harmless to the prince."

"Really?" Ma couldn't help but worry about Qin Yining again, "That girl is still young, so I don't know if she can hold her back."

While the family was gathering together and anxiously waiting, Qin Yining had already been brought into the palace by the great eunuch Li Guanwen beside Li Qitian.

This is the first time Qin Yining has entered the palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty. This palace was renovated based on the original palace of the Northern Ji Kingdom. Under the simplicity and grandeur, it reveals the unique luxury and majesty of the royal family.

Qin Yining bowed his head, followed Li Guanwen's footsteps without squinting, and arrived at the imperial study in a short time.
