Chapter 583 Not optimistic
"and many more!"
A majestic voice sounded, and everyone stopped and saw four palace guards breaking away from the team and walking towards this side.
what happened? It's not illegal just to take a look, right?
Seeing the palace guards getting closer and closer, the onlookers felt a little nervous even though they did nothing.
As for the reason, the main reason is that these guards have too much murderous intent.
Seeing this, Xu Chun's originally gloomy heart had a little more hope. She straightened her body and tried to attract attention. Then she saw the other four people walking towards her.
"Hey, guys, I just took a few glances. I didn't do anything! Really."
When the man in front saw this posture, he suddenly panicked. He kept explaining and stepped back.
But the palace guards always had a stern face and their hands were on the hilts of the swords at their waists.
When they got closer, the palace guard grabbed the man's shoulders with his hands and pushed him aside. Then he squatted down and looked at Xu Chun carefully for a while, with a stiff smile on his face:
"Are you...Miss Xu Chun?"
Guanjun Hou had told him to have a good attitude, but he only knew martial arts and had never practiced martial arts, so how could he have a good attitude?
"it's me."
Xu Chun nodded timidly. The pressure from the people in front of her was too strong.
"Master Champion Hou said that he wants to catch up with you, what do you think?"
He tried to keep his tone polite.
"can."
Xu Chun nodded repeatedly, a big smile appeared on his face, and then he looked at the people around him:
"Hmph, I'll just tell you that I know the champion, and you still won't believe me."
The people around were stunned. They thought that the girl was talking nonsense, but who knew that she actually knew Guan Jun Hou?
They only felt burning pain on their faces.
A petite figure walked up to the carriage. Her big watery eyes were filled with suppressed excitement. Her rosy little face made people want to pinch it. She spoke in a timid voice:
"Big brother……"
Riding in a carriage was something she normally wouldn't even dare to think about. Now that she was experiencing it for the first time, she couldn't help but feel a little scared.
"What a beautiful child, come here."
Duanmu Keer waved her hand, called Xu Chun to her side, and pinched her face:
"What's your name?"
"My name is Xu Chun."
Although Xu Chun felt the kindness emanating from Duanmu Ke'er, the sudden intimate behavior made her even more frightened, and her little face turned red.
"Xu Chun, come and sit down."
Sensing Xu Chun's uneasiness, Lin Xiaofan opened his mouth to come to the rescue. The latter hurriedly came to Lin Xiaofan's side, playing with his fingers and sleeves.
"How have you been recently? Have you received your pension? Has anyone bullied you?"
Lin Xiaofan asked.
"Brother, I'm living a good life recently, and sister Qingyu also takes good care of me. The pension has also been paid out, and not a penny has been lost."
Speaking of this, Xu Chun's face became more happy. Although her original home was gone, Xu Chun was really kind to her and made her feel warmer than ever before.
Moreover, the officials in charge of their area knew that the two of them were related to the champion and the princess, and they were even more polite and respectful to them. There once was a drunken guest who caused trouble in a tavern. I heard he was a young master from a big family. As a result, the officials took the man to the Yamen without saying a word and gave him twenty beatings.
In the past, they could only suffer in silence.
Hearing this, Lin Xiaofan nodded in satisfaction. Seeing that the little guy seemed to be hesitant to speak, Lin Xiaofan guessed Xu Chun's thoughts and said:
"Xu Wen and Xu Wu are doing well. Xu Wu has a good aptitude for martial arts. When I left, he had already practiced well. Xu Wen gave up martial arts and turned to literature. He is now studying in a private school. I heard from the teacher that he is very hardworking and talented."
Hearing this, Xu Chun scratched his head with a smile on his face. After her parents left, her two brothers are her only relatives now. And both of them have always taken good care of her and treated her well.
When she heard the good news about the two of them, her heart was filled with joy. But more than anything, I still miss you.
It has been more than a year since we last met last year.
"Do you have the idea of studying literature or martial arts? If so, I can find a master for you. It can be in the capital or Qingzhou County."
Lin Xiaofan asked.
"Don't bother me, big brother. I'm living very well in the tavern."
Xu Chun shook his head.
"Alright."
Lin Xiaofan thought about it and nodded.
Seeing that the two of them stopped talking, Duanmu Keer became interested again, turned to her face and asked:
"Little guy, how old are you?"
"I am seven years old."
"Are you from Beijing too? I'm from Beijing too, do you want to come to my house and play?"
Hearing this, Xu Chun looked up timidly. This sister didn't look like a bad person, but he didn't know her! It would be bad to refuse, and it would be bad to agree, too.
Thinking of this, her little face was full of difficulty.
Fortunately, the carriage soon arrived at the gate of the palace. Everyone got off the carriage and walked all the way to the banquet.
As plates of delicious food were served to the table and wine was opened, the atmosphere gradually became lively.
The officials toasted each other, and Lin Xiaofan naturally couldn't escape. Almost all officials with rank five or above came to propose a toast. In this regard, Lin Xiaofan also refused to accept anyone who came.
There is no other reason, the main reason is that the wine in this palace is delicious. Not only is it delicious, but it also has a low alcohol content, so you don’t have to worry about getting drunk.
"Brother Lin, I have gained a lot from this trip. Come on, let me pay you a tribute."
Duanmu Liangchuan, as the prime minister, was also at the banquet. After entertaining all the officials, he rushed to Lin Xiaofan's table.
Now he doesn't have the bookishness he had when we first met him, his belly is a little bigger, and he looks like an official.
"Brother Duanmu, come and sit here."
Lin Xiaofan also drank it all in one gulp.
"Brother, look at you, your belly has grown a lot."
Duanmu Ke'er was filled with disgust when she saw Duanmu Liangchuan's look.
"Haha, the situation forced me to attend too many social events. Who is this?"
Duanmu Liangchuan smiled, not minding at all, and turned to look at the little Xu Chun.
Xu Chun came to such an occasion, looking at the high-ranking officials that she could never reach, and she was a little nervous. She was eating with her head down. Now that someone mentioned it, she raised her head.
"I recognize my sister."
Lin Xiaofan thought for a while and said.
"My sister."
Duanmu Liangchuan nodded.
"Brother Duanmu, what is the current situation in the court?"
Lin Xiaofan asked.
Now in the court, Kang Hong is the emperor, Duanmu Liangchuan is the prime minister, and there are officials from the Zhao and Jian families, so he is not too worried.
Because of this, he never asked much. But who would have thought that Duanmu Liangjiang would frown when asked.
"Not optimistic."
