Xu Qing looked at the gratified look on the prince's face, he felt that the prince might have some serious illness...

Could it be that Xiao Ye was getting angry with the prince every day, what's wrong with getting angry at his father?

Xu Qing thinks it is possible.

King Xian looked at Xu Qing and said, "Although you have made great contributions this time, you are still a little short of realizing your ambition. I will save the credits for you this time, and wait until your credits are enough." , this king will allow you a position with a salary while lying at home."

Xu Qing blinked and looked at King Xian: "Really?"

The virtuous king nodded and said: "Mr. Duke, if you get one, you will be able to seal your wife and son... However, the title of my Great Chu is not so good. If you want it, you'd better have a few more like horseshoes." thanks to

Xu Qing's eyes lit up immediately, it doesn't matter whether he is a noble or not, but...it's a good job to get paid while lying down at home.

He always thought that if he wanted to get this thing, he had to go to battle to kill the enemy to have a chance to get it.

Unexpectedly, a small piece of iron can change a title? !

This deal is worth it!

At that time, if he became the Duke of the state, why would he be afraid of the ass of the Xu family? He can make Xu Sima sing Conquer on his knees!

Thinking of this, Xu Qing looked at King Xian and said, "My lord, how much credit does the Duke need?"

King Xian just sat down and took a sip of water, coughed up the water when he heard this, he looked at Xu Qing for a long time before saying: "The ambition is great, but you don't want to think about such a good thing, if you were born a few years earlier After ten years of fighting the world with Emperor Taizu, there might still be a duke of the country, but now that I have established the country for more than 60 years, how can there be a duke of the country for you."

Not even a prince, this prince is really stingy, his fighting spirit is halved...

The Xian King glanced at Xu Qing who had a melancholy expression on his face, and said: "You are still white now, don't be too ambitious, it's better to save a county magistrate down-to-earth, it's almost time, I asked my servants to bring you You go to the dining room."

Watching Xu Qing go away, the Xian Wang took out a piece of paper, wrote a letter, and then stamped his own private seal, packed it together with the drawing of the horseshoe, and ordered his cronies to send it to the capital as soon as possible.

King Xian is very happy at this time, maybe Da Chu will add a new pillar.

Originally, the virtuous king thought that this person was quite talented, so he tried to get close to him, but now he found out, how could this person be talented?

He treated Xue'er twice, and presented a horseshoe today, and from time to time taught this negligent son some rules and procedures for doing things.

This time it is a treasure!

As for how the virtuous king fell in love with Xu Qing among the many talents? Is it because he was named the number one talented man in Yongzhou?

It's not that there are too many talented people in the capital, and I haven't seen any of them valued by the virtuous king, but the number one talented person in Yongzhou is just a fast catcher!

It's fine to be a policeman, but he can get along with his own son!

You must know that his son would never be so close to a person who wrote poems and lyrics on weekdays.

What a wonderful boy!

...

After King Xian ordered someone to deliver the letter, he came to the dining hall, where the maids in the mansion had already served several dishes, King Xian looked at Xu Qing and said, "It's really hard work for you, come and sit down."

Xu Qing shook his head and said: "My lord, there are still people waiting to eat at my house, I'm afraid it's inconvenient to stay for a long time today."

King Xian looked at Xu Qing: "Aren't you the only one in your family? Who is waiting for you?"

Xiao Ye said from the side: "Ahem, father, yesterday, brother Xu just married the daughter of the county magistrate of Yong'an."

King Xian looked at Xu Qing and said, "The daughter of the county magistrate? It's a shame that your talent is worthy of a county magistrate's daughter."

At this time, Xiao Ruxue stood up from her seat and came: "That's not true! Xu Qing didn't get married! Yesterday's report is obviously fake!"

Xiao Ye looked at Xiao Ruxue and said quickly: "Xue'er, don't talk nonsense."

Xiao Ruxue pouted and said, "I'm not talking nonsense! Xu Qing told me that he and the county magistrate's daughter were just playing around, because Xu Qing offended the Xu family, and the Xu family forced the county magistrate to marry her." , they were acting together, Xu Qing is not married!"

King Xian looked at Xu Qing and said, "The Xu family forced a marriage? Is there such a thing?"

Xu Qing shook his head and said: "It's not yet possible to force the marriage, it's just that the Xu family has this kind of intention. The county magistrate is only a county magistrate after all, and he's a little nervous facing the Xu family. He has considered everything that should be considered."

King Xian nodded and said: "Well, since the forced marriage has not yet happened, it is not easy for me to intervene, you go, I am still in Yongzhou City, don't be afraid of the Xu family. By the way, this time the reward of..."

Xu Qing looked at the virtuous king and asked, "My lord, can this reward be saved?"

After hearing this, Xian Wang was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said: "You are persistent, well, then save it all."

After watching Xu Qing go out, Princess Xian asked beside him, "Just now what did Xu Qing say that he is saving?"

The Xian Wang laughed and said: "I heard that this person didn't want to be an official, but this king thought that this person had no ambitions, but the princess knew what kind of reward he was asking for from this king just now?"

Concubine Xian was puzzled and said: "He asked for an official position?"

The virtuous king said: "He asked the king for the title."

Concubine Xian was slightly taken aback when she heard these two words. Da Chu has not been granted a title for more than ten years, right? This kid is really brave!

Concubine Xian asked: "The prince gave it?"

The virtuous king shook his head and said: "Although the horseshoe can not only save hundreds of thousands of taels of silver for Da Chu this time, it is barely enough to give him a title, but this son is young after all, so it is so easy to promise him a title. I'm afraid it will make him proud and complacent, which is not a good thing."

Concubine Xian asked again: "Then the prince didn't promise him?"

The virtuous king said: "This king told him: If you want to become the noble of my Great Chu, this merit alone is not enough, you need to accumulate it."

Princess Xian couldn't help covering her mouth and chuckling when she heard this: "No wonder just now Xu Qing said that the rewards should be saved first, so it turns out that the prince is careful."

Xiao Ye, who was on the side, couldn't help but start to be mean: "Father is not thinking of Brother Xu, Father is obviously trying to squeeze the last bit of value from Brother Xu..."

King Xian couldn't help but slapped the table when he heard this: "What nonsense are you talking about?! Could this king be those villains in Xu Qing's storybook?!"

Xiao Ye lowered his head and ate in silence, muttering in his heart: Do you have no points in your heart...

night falls

Su Mansion, above the dinner table

Xu Qing put the last dish on the dining table, Su Qian looked at Xu Qing and asked, "Why did you come back so late today?"

Xu Qing said: "I came back a bit late after negotiating a business deal."

Su Qian wondered, "Business?"

Xu Qing said: "If this business is negotiated, we will have money to send over even if we lie at home in the future."

Su County Magistrate who had just caught a piece of meat at the side glanced at him: "You can still get money while lying at home? You have a good idea..."
