Chapter 53 The Kind Prince

Chu Tianshu was a little surprised.

It is relatively difficult in his plan to get out of citizenship and become a free person, and it requires a certain amount of effort to do it.

Now Qi Weizhi, the king of Chen, directly said that he was disqualified, which made Chu Tianshu stunned for a moment.

Qi Weizhi sat in the gazebo, saw that Chu Tianshu standing below did not speak, so he said again: "You don't have to thank me."

"There is no need to think that the old man has any other plans for you."

"Xiao Liu'er is asking you to win Miss Xie's favor for Seventeen. As the old man knows today, you will not be able to do this job."

"Her Majesty's matter is the first. In these years, the noble ladies have been thinking of finding pearls in the sand, and have chosen their own Qin Fuzheng; .”

"You are exactly like this." Qi Weizhi sighed: "Although the end of the noble ladies is not always good, but this feeling of being able to choose for themselves always teaches them to go forward and continue, and they will be happy even if they encounter a broken head. "

"What I saw when I entered the palace today, Miss Xie seems to have this meaning for you."

"Miss Xie has a special status. It is difficult for the royal family to arrange for him. It is best to give him the best. Originally, he was looking for a prince who was going to succeed to the throne to be a princess."

"Now that she has read some novels by herself, and Princess Heyang Zhuyu is in front of her."

"I guess she's going to choose you."

"If she really chooses you, then no matter what you do in the future, your life will be smooth."

"The old man gave you kindness today. Although it is not difficult for a capable young man like you to get out of the country, it still saves your effort. All I want is your gratitude."

"No matter who the old man is in this position in the future, I hope, boy, you can help me at critical moments."

"If Ms. Xie didn't choose you in the end, the mansion wouldn't actually lose much."

Qi Weizhi looked down at Chu Tianshu: "Boy, the old man said it so clearly, do you understand?"

"Understood." Chu Tianshu bowed his head: "Thank you, my lord."

"Very good." Qi Weizhi sighed, "But you don't have to leave the palace in a hurry."

"I guess you haven't found a good place to live outside, so you can live in the mansion first."

"I called a servant and temporarily arranged for you to live in a simple courtyard."

"Whenever you need to leave, you can tell the servants that you don't have to return the key."

"If you are interested in the future, you can also come to the mansion to have a look."

"Go." Qi stroked his beard for him, turned around, and turned his back to Chu Tianshu.

It's pretty high.

Chu Tianshu raised his head and took a deep look at Qi Weizhi.

The old man was taller than him, with a broad back, but not bloated, he was tall and strong.

After seeing this, Chu Tianshu turned and left.

After leaving the back garden, he touched his waist.

Qi Yingzhi didn't bring the pistol she gave her.

You should take it with you next time you go out.

When he stepped out of the back garden, there were servants waiting for him, he didn't say anything unnecessary, he just led Chu Tianshu to a remote small courtyard in the palace, and gave him the key.

Afterwards, Chu Tianshu was the only one left in the huge courtyard.

He looked around and saw that the yard was cleaned temporarily and was very clean. Several trees were planted in the yard, a jujube tree and a peach tree.

There are peaches on the peach tree, and judging by the color, they are about to ripen.

After sitting for a while, Chu Tianshu went back to Qi Zhongliu's yard, took his money and pistol with him, and went to find Xiao He, Qi Zhongliu's personal maid.

"Xiao He." Chu Tianshu knocked on the door.

Hearing it was Chu Tianshu's voice, Xiaohe put down the insole in her hand, and ran to open the door: "You, the young master was dragged out to watch a play by his classmates just now, and he hasn't come back yet. Just tell me if you have anything to do. I'll wait for you." Tell the young master for you later, or you can wait for a while and tell him when the young master comes back in the evening."

Go to a play?

Going to the Grand View Garden to watch a play?

Chu Tianshu smiled: "Xiao He, His Royal Highness Chen Wang has just released me from slavery. I will not be the book boy of the Seventeenth Young Master in the future. Please tell him about this matter when you have time."

"Are you out of citizenship?" Xiao He's eyes lit up, she was very envious: "Congratulations, you will be a free man from now on."

"Yes." Chu Tianshu smiled.

"Then do you have a place to live? Is there enough money for board and lodging outside?" Xiao He said, then turned around and went back to the house to take out a small wallet.

The hamster wallet was bulging, and when it was opened, it was full of dimes and quarters.

"It's not like the free board and lodging in the palace. You haven't been in the mansion for a long time. I don't know if you have saved money. Although I don't have much money here, I can lend you a dollar for a while."

"You take it. After you go out, find a job first. If you have relatives, go to relatives. Just don't expose such a small amount of money in front of relatives. If your relatives are unreliable, you should run quickly and use this money to find a shop." Live here, eat something good to reward yourself, after all, you have left your citizenship."

"This..." Chu Tianshu had some experience, and looked closely at Xiao He's eyebrows: "You lend me so much money?"

"I'm in the mansion, so I don't need money even if I have money." Xiao He laughed, a little foolishly: "It's great to be out of citizenship."

"It's a good thing." Chu Tianshu looked at the two fifty-cent coins lying on Xiao He's white palm, and sighed. He didn't tell her that he was rich, and he didn't say that he still lived in the mansion. .

"You save so much money, you want to use it to extricate yourself?" Chu Tianshu asked.

"Yeah, but it's still far away." Xiao He carefully put away the hamster wallet: "I have [-] cents a month, plus the occasional reward from the Seventeenth Young Master, it will take another four or five years. Only then can I save enough money to get out of citizenship.”

"In addition to the living expenses that I have to save outside, my parents at home also come to me every month to get [-] cents, so I have to save for nearly ten years."

"What are your plans after getting out of citizenship?"

"I plan to open a shop at that time, selling pastries or tailoring clothes. I learned how to make pastries, how to sew clothes, how to make tea, and how to make wine after learning a recipe. People can also marry and have a baby.”

"It's just that when I can save enough money to leave my citizenship, I should be 26, and I'm old. Will I be able to find someone who wants me, and can I have children..."

As Xiao He said, the longing in her eyes couldn't be hidden.

Chu Tianshu squeezed the two coins, and patted Xiao He's shoulder: "You are so kind, it must be possible."

"You are out of citizenship, you must live a good life after you get out, and don't sell yourself to be a slave again." Xiao He smiled and blessed.

"Definitely."

"I was not born to be a slave to others."
