Chapter 12: Lady Song
After that, the three children were taken to meet Mrs. Mamarumomatsu, who held the political office of Kojira, as children of the Kodera family. Mrs. www.biquge.info Song of the Pen "Fun" Pavilion meets her three children in the bedroom located at the back of the palace.
"Wan Ji (Ali) (Ah Guang) to meet Madame."
"Well, okay, in fact, I'm just meeting with you today, and there's nothing to say, Ali and Ah Guang I've already met, Wanji is the first time I've met, what a special child! Okay, stand down! After that, a maid will take you to your lodgings and tell you the rules to be observed here. Madame Song's tone was not very good, and Wan Ji could clearly feel that this tone was aimed at himself.
In his previous life, he watched a lot of various TV series and novels, and Wanji didn't have to think about it to know why, because Mrs. Song, or the Kotera family, has no heirs at present, and as a child of the Kuroda family, she became the adopted son of the Kodera family, and Mrs. Matsu felt that she was her enemy, and she was here to inherit the Kotera family, and she was here to compete for the position of the governor of the family with her children who might appear in the future.
"Madam, I have something to say to you alone, I don't know if it's convenient." Wan Ji was supposed to leave together, but suddenly, he saluted Mrs. Song and said very respectfully.
"Oh! It's really interesting to talk about it alone. Mrs. Song looked at Wanji with a very sharp look in her eyes
"Yes, that's right, there is a word below, but I can only tell Mrs. Song alone, and I don't want others to know, so I dare to put it forward, I hope to talk to Mrs. Song alone, please Mrs. Leave it right, and then I will tell the truth about what I am going to say." Wan Ji bowed to the ground.
Mrs. Song looked at Wan Ji, Wan Ji's eyes were very clear, without a trace of complicated emotions, he knew that it was impossible for this child to hurt himself, and this was the backyard of the Imperial City, which was his own territory, so he didn't think much about it, and said coldly: "Okay, then so be it!" Wanji stays, the others retreat first, if there is something I will call you. ”
After Madame Matsu finished speaking, everyone withdrew from the room, and because Wanji said that she didn't want others to know, the maid went out and closed the sliding door, leaving only Madame Matsu and Wanji in the room, sitting facing each other.
"Okay, there's no one else, what do you have to say, you can say." Mrs. Song said lightly.
Wan Ji walked up to Mrs. Song, who kept looking at Wan Ji and saw him walking towards her, and said sternly, "If there is anything, you can say it directly!" You don't have to get so close. ”
But Wan Ji didn't care so much, he still walked in front of Mrs. Song, and began to speak to Mrs. Song's ear, at first Mrs. Song was very resistant, after all, the political position of the small temple would not talk to him like this, and he would still be a little unaccustomed. But after Wanji said a few words, Lady Song's face relaxed, and then a smile appeared on her face. After speaking, Wan Ji returned to his seat and sat down respectfully.
"Wanji, are you telling the truth?" Madame Song had a look of surprise in her eyes.
"Madam, it's true, I usually like to read, and Madame can order someone to go to Kuroda's house to investigate, and before coming to Koji's house this time, something happened to my family and Takino Temple. Before I came, my father sighed that it would be nice if the Koji family could have an heir, if the lord had an heir, even if it was an ignorant child, His Royal Highness Takino would not dare to threaten the family like this in this incident, and the retainers of the family would be more united because of the heir. So I started to prepare before I came, and I didn't sleep the next night yesterday, and finally found these in a **** medical book. ”
"****'s medical book?" Mrs. Song said curiously, after all, it is indeed very rare for an island country to read **** medical books, even famous doctors in Kyoto will not do this!
"Yes, ****'s medical book. In fact, there are five relevant methods I found, but the other four are all required to take medicine, but **** medical skills are three points of poison, so only in the following method, you don't need to take drugs, you just need to pay attention to the time. The book says that this method is very useful, and even if it does not work, at least it is not harmful to the body. ”
"I gave birth to an heir, does it really matter to you?" Madame Song asked tentatively.
"Madame may have misunderstood, in the next Xiaoji family is actually the whim of the lord's idea, in the coming down to the Imperial City, there is never any extravagant hope, and in the next sincere hope, Madame can give birth to an heir for the small temple family, and when the young master becomes an adult, he will return to the Kuroda family in the next place, or stay in the family to assist the young master, and die for the small temple family."
"Okay, what an interesting kid." Mrs. Song's tone this time was already full of pity and joy.
When Wanji heard Mrs. Song's words and heard the tone of her words, Wanji sat on the ground, and finally felt relieved in his heart, knowing that he had been recognized by Madame Song, at least with Madame Song's care in the city, he was temporarily safe in the Imperial City.
"Madam, it's okay, I'll step back first!"
"Wait a minute, A-Qing." Lady Matsu did not let Wanji go by herself, but called the name of a maid
After Mrs. shouted, a maid entered the room, this maid Wan Ji noticed that it was Mrs. Song's personal maid, "What does Madame command?" ”
"You take Wanji to his residence, he will be the adopted son of the Xiaosi family in the future, you must treat him as the young master of the Xiaosi family, you must serve him well, and you can't be lazy, you know?" Mrs. Song returned to her cold appearance and said solemnly.
"Ah Qing knows, he will definitely not snub Wanji Gongzi."
"Ah Qing, please take care of it in the future," Wan Ji said respectfully.
"Prince Wanji is polite." Ah Qing bowed and said.
Ah Qing took Wan Ji to a room not far from the Xiao Temple and Mrs. Song's residence, it can be seen that the Xiao Temple family, at least on the surface, does treat Wan Ji as an adopted son, Ah Li and Ah Guang's room is in the corner of the courtyard, and the location is not very good, this is the difference.
"Aqing, I just came, and I'm still very new to everything in the city, what rules do I need to pay attention to in the city? It's not good to do something wrong when you don't get to," Wan Ji asked in a low voice as he followed Ah Qing all the way.
"Childe, you're welcome, it's an honor to be able to serve Childe. In fact, in the city, Childe doesn't have much to pay attention to. It is four points to be careful, the first hall likes flowers and plants, so there are a lot of flowers and plants in the courtyard, and you can't destroy or destroy flowers and plants when playing; Second, the main hall will sleep at noon every day, and do not wake up His Highness during this time; The third is that the main hall has purchased some valuable screens and works of art in Sakaicho and Kyoto, so try not to touch these things; The fourth is that you can't just go out of this pill without the permission of the main hall. As long as you don't do these things, there is nothing to pay attention to in the city. Ah Qing clearly told Wan Ji all the precautions.
"Thank you, Qing! I remember them all. ”
"Childe is polite, if there is nothing to do, Childe will rest first!"
"By the way, Ah Qing, where does the companion Wubei who came with me live? I haven't seen him all the time, and where do the two princesses of the Kushiqiao family live? ”
"The child who came with you lives in the longhouse to the west of Honmaru, where most of the servants live, and if you want to go to him for something, you can go to him at any time. The princess of the Kushihashi family! At the southernmost end of the corridor, all the way to their apartment. ”
"Can I go to the Warrior Guard, then?"
"Yes, I just said it, as long as you don't go out of this pill, it's fine."
"Okay, then I don't have any problems, thank you Aqing."
"By the way, Childe, the lord just instructed, after that, I will prepare a few new sets of clothes for Childe, and then Childe must change into new clothes."
"Thank you, I will, the clothes will be delivered, I will freshen up and put on new clothes immediately, please rest assured."
"Okay, then the boy will rest first!"
Wanji sat on the floor, finally able to rest, and he could breathe a sigh of relief, finally gaining a foothold in the Imperial City.
After Wan Ji put on his new clothes, he lived a peaceful life in the city, but there were no military books he wanted to read in the city, so he could only practice martial arts every day. Wanyoshi specially found a remote open space to the west of Kotera Honmaru, that is, behind the residence of the Takebei, and swung his sword three hundred times in the morning and practiced spearmanship in the afternoon, without stopping. If it's raining, practice in the hallway outside your bedroom. What I want to say here is that Wanyoshi's companion Takebei doesn't like to use knives, so he will only be with Wanji when he practices marksmanship in the afternoon, and in the morning he will help the people of the Kodera family do some simple things, and the people also like Takebei this child from the Kuroda family.
A month passed in the blink of an eye, and when the sun was just dawning, Wanji went to that open space to practice swordsmanship, tied his hair, held a bamboo knife in his hand, and wore a simple dress brought by the Kuroda family.
