Donglai County was next to Beihai County. Taishi Ci's hometown, Huang County, was only a few dozen li away from Beihai County.
After half a day, Xun Mu and Taishi Ci arrived outside Huang County.
Taishi Ci, who was eager to return to his hometown, was very excited when he arrived at Huang County.
He was originally hiding in Liaodong.
He had just returned home, but because Kong Rong was in trouble, he had to leave home again.
Taishi Ci's heart had already flown into his old residence when he set foot on his homeland again.
"Advisor Jun, Huang County is just ahead.”
I miss my family very much.
Taishi Ci also became less talkative.
Not long after, they arrived at the small courtyard in the northern city.
"Mother, your son is back!"
Taishi Ci had not seen his mother for many days and could not help but kowtow and cry.
Even a first-rate general, a dignified man, couldn't help but cry when he returned home.
"Son, did you save Governor Kong?”
Madam Taishi helped Taishi Ci up. The first thing she asked was whether Taishi Ci could save Kong Rong.
"Don't worry, Mother!" Taishi Ci replied respectfully. The danger of the North Sea has been resolved, and Governor Kong is safe and sound. I have already repaid my mother's favor!”
Madam Taishi heaved a sigh of relief.
Now that Kong Rong was safe and sound, and Taishi Ci had returned safely, Madam Taishi's worried heart was finally at ease.
The grace of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring.
This was Madam Taishi's values.
Even though she knew that she might lose her son if Taishi Ci went to repay her kindness, she still chose to let Taishi Ci save Kong Rong.
Even Xun Mu admired such a loyal woman!
.....
Character: Lady Taishi
[Camp: Wild]
[Status 1: My son, don't blame your mother for being ruthless. You avoided disaster in Liaodong all thanks to Governor Kong's help these few years. If I can't repay such kindness, I'll be ashamed of the world!]
Dynamic 2: My son has not returned for many days. I wonder if he has saved Governor Kong!
[Status 3: My son, you must return safely!]
[Status 4: I suddenly want to eat Crucian Carp, but Ziyi isn't here. It's tasteless to eat it alone.]
.....
While Taishi Ci and Lady Taishi were crying, Xun Mu had been monitoring Lady Taishi's movements.
Xun Mu's eyes lit up when he saw the fourth message.
Coincidentally, he saw a few naughty children playing beside him. Xun Mu took out twenty five baht coins.
"I want ten Crucian Carps in an hour. Whoever can do it will get the money!”
The children were delighted.
"Is what you said true?"
"You're not lying to us?"
"Of course not. If you find a Crucian Carp, come to the courtyard and find me!”Xun Mu pointed at Taishi Ci's courtyard.
Wan Tong smiled." So it's Madam Taishi who wants to eat Crucian Carp. That's easy. I know where she likes Crucian Carp the most!" It won't take an hour. Just wait a moment and we'll catch it for you!”
Xun Mu gave each of them a five baht coin."Since you know, that's even better! One for each person. This is the deposit. If there is seasoning, you can also send it over. The money will still be given!”
Seeing Xun Mu's heroic spirit, the naughty boy knew that he had met a noble person. He stopped playing and carefully put the five baht money into his pocket before running off to catch fish.
Seeing Wan Tong leave, Xun Mu returned to the courtyard.
Taishi Ci saw Xun Mu's arrival and hurriedly went up to him,""Advisor Jun, where did you go just now? Mother wants to see you?”
"I met a few naughty children and asked them about my hometown." Xun Mu chuckled.”
Following Taishi Ci to the hall, Xun Mu cupped his hands and bowed."I am Xun Mu and Xun Wenlue from Yingchuan. Greetings, Madam Taishi!”
Seeing Xun Mu's handsome appearance and the demeanor of a noble family, Lady Taishi had a good impression of him. She was happy that her son could get to know such a wise man.
"The Xun family of Yingchuan has always been famous. Mister Xun's appearance is extraordinary.”
"Ziyi, in the future, you have to be closer to Mister Xun.”
Taishi Ci didn't dare to disobey his mother's orders and answered frankly,""Mother, I am currently serving under Military Advisor Xun.”
"Military Advisor Xun?"
Seeing Taishi Ci's confusion, Xun Mu bowed again before Taishi Ci could explain,""Madam Taishi, if I hadn't planned for the Yellow Turban soldiers to surround the North Sea, Madam Taishi wouldn't have worried about Ziyi's safety for days.”
"Although there is a reason for this, I feel guilty in my heart, so I specially came to apologize to Madam Taishi.”
Madam Taishi was a little confused.
What was going on?
Yellow Turban? Besiege the North Sea?
Madam Taishi looked at Taishi Ci in confusion.
Taishi Ci quickly told Lady Taishi about Xun Mu's attempt to persuade the Yellow Turban soldiers to surrender and the migration of the Yellow Turban soldiers to the East Sea.
Finally.
Taishi Ci did not forget to put in a good word for Xun Mu,"Mother, Military Advisor Xun's action has prevented the counties from being harassed by Guan Hai's fifty thousand Yellow Turbans. Although it has damaged their reputation, it is a great matter that benefits the people.”
When Madam Taishi heard this, she glared at Taishi Ci and said angrily,""Ziyi, am I that kind of pedantic person?”
Immediately.
Madam Taishi stood up and returned the greeting,""Mr. Xun is a righteous man. Not only did he save the lives of tens of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers, but he also made the people of the surrounding counties no longer worry about the Yellow Turban bandits! Such a righteous act is worthy of the word 'great sage.' Please accept this old man's bow!”
"Ziyi, you are lucky enough to be working under Mister Xun. In the future, you will follow Mister Xun, listen to his teachings carefully, and protect his safety. Don't be fickle and damage your kindness!”
Taishi Ci hesitated.
In the end, he didn't tell Xun Mu about the bet and could only agree.
If he said this out loud…
Taishi Ci knew his mother well. She would definitely be whipped and served!
