Soon, the driver of the carriage showed a hint of surprise on his face, but then he became embarrassed again.

Because the clothes on this person seem to have a lot of smell, they should look like beggars. You must know that because of the winter, there are not a few people like this.

In the carriage, a girl in a snow-white coat cautiously leaned out of the carriage, seeing the person lying in the snow, she couldn't help showing a hint of unbearable expression on her face.

"Housekeeper, take him with you."

The girl's weak voice sounded, making people feel pity.

"Yes, miss!"

Soon in another carriage, a middle-aged figure stood up and said, but there was a look of disgust on his face.

Obviously, if the young lady didn't speak up, he would not have planned to take in such a beggar at all.

You must know that there are many beggars in winter, and there are also many beggars sleeping silently in the snow.

This middle-aged butler has long been used to such things and has long been indifferent, but he still dare not go against his own lady's wishes.

Chapter 394 Another New Year's Eve

New Year's Eve

This was Shu An's second New Year's Eve in Chang'an, and many people gathered together.

There are Dou Hong's mother and daughter, Yang's mother and daughter, some people from Liu Yingchun's residence, and many guards from Shu's residence.

Even the family members of An Beibo's mansion also gathered in Shu's mansion, but it's a pity that Xue Rengui is still at the border.

The main reason was that this heavy snow had changed too many things, even Shu An didn't know if it was because of his own influence.

As a result, this winter is much colder than in the past, and the whole world seems to be frozen by these colleges.

"Teacher, I respect you with this glass of wine."

Liu Yingchun was the first to speak out, and the longer she stayed in Chang'an, the more she understood the terrifying influence of this teacher.

You must know that there are not many people who can help Rengui now, but this teacher is definitely one of them.

It's a pity that although Liu Yingchun prefers her husband's return, there is no way around it.

"Thank you, Yingchun."

Facing this girl, Shu An said with a gentle smile on his face.

He was still very satisfied with this daughter-in-law of his disciple, and he learned from Laifu that An Beibo's mansion was well managed by Liu Yingchun.

Obviously Liu Yingchun quickly adapted to her role, maybe some people have such a talent.

Another point is that Liu Yingchun treated his servants equally well, otherwise, he wouldn't have brought Shu Mansion together.

Shu An didn't care whether it was pretending or sincerity, after all he wasn't someone who forced others, it was enough to have this kind of heart.

"Uncle, I respect you too."

"Uncle, and Ya Ya."

......

However, Liu Yingchun's words seemed to have opened a shackle, and then one voice after another sounded out.

The originally dull atmosphere suddenly became lively, and because of the two little girls, it quickly became chattering.

"All come, all come."

The smile on Shu An's face deepened and he continued to speak, there are quite a lot of people this year.

Fortunately, the food on the table is also rich enough, and the food in Shu Mansion is not generally exquisite.

Even Liu Yingchun once asked cooks to study in the Shu Mansion, and of course only Li Shimin and Liu Yingchun did so at present.

Li Shimin did it because of Wugou, and Liu Yingchun did it because of keeping the family. Of course, if it wasn't for Xue Rengui's reason, how could it be rumored about the Shu residence.

Among thousands of households on New Year’s Eve in Chang’an, the lights are brightly lit tonight. Although not every family will have a reunion, even in the homes of ordinary people, there will be some meat flavor in the food.

This day is the happiest day for many children, because they can eat the most extravagant meal of the year.

This is still the case for common people's homes, not to mention those wealthy families. Many families in the minister's mansion are happy together.

And as the most noble family in the entire Tang Dynasty, the palace is also very luxurious, but this luxury lacks a sense of family atmosphere.

But this is the helplessness that belongs to the emperor. Although there are no three thousand concubines in the harem, the number is also quite a lot.

In addition to many princes, the population will be dozens of people in an instant. It can be said that Li Shimin himself is a family population.

There are also eunuchs and maids waiting on the sidelines. With such a number, it will become hundreds of people in an instant.

It's a pity that because of the rules belonging to the court, this New Year's Eve dinner was also restricted.

........

In the carriage in the backyard of a mansion in Chang'an, a figure slightly touched its finger.

"Why am I here again?"

Wang Xuance opened his eyes and murmured, and then the memory came from his mind, he seemed to have had a very long dream.

He vaguely heard a girl's voice, saving him from the snow, but it seemed that he should leave here now.

Soon Wang Xuance touched a sewed pocket on his chest, and couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, because the seeds were still there.

"I'm going back by tonight!"

But then Wang Xuance revealed a resolute look on his face and whispered, barely supporting his body to get up.

Looking at the coat draped over his body, he secretly remembered the decoration here, and there must be rewards in the future.

The kindness of dripping water should be repaid by the spring, let alone the kindness of saving life, but now he has more important things.

Perhaps because of this, the servants in this mansion seem to be busy, while the backyard is empty.

Stumbling all the way, Wang Xuance walked out of the backyard with his weak body.

"Hey, why did the person you brought back disappear?"

I don't know how long later a servant came back and said with a hint of doubt on his face, you must know that he followed the lady's order and brought some food to this person.

Because according to the prediction, the rescued person should have almost woken up.

Fortunately, seeing the gate of the backyard opened, it was probably clear that the rescued person had escaped.

"White-eyed wolf!"

The servant didn't care after scolding softly. In his opinion, it was only because of the kindness of the lady that he saved this person.

If it weren't for this, they wouldn't care about this person's life or death, and it would be fine if he ran away now, at least Miss wouldn't care.

.......

In the Shu residence, Shu An was sleepless tonight. After the excitement, Shu An asked Laifu to arrange guards to send Liu Yingchun and others back.

As for Yang's mother and daughter, they are only a few steps away, so there is no need to worry too much. Shu An even gave Wu Shun a seven-day holiday.

Although Wu Shun was very hesitant and insisted on staying, he was finally driven away by Shu An.

Shu An also dismissed the married guards in the Shu residence. Anyway, the return of Shu Kuangshi and others made up for the vacancy of the guards.

In the end, there were only a few people left, and this night, Shu An was a little abnormal, and did not sleep as usual.

"Master, it seems that Xuan Ce must be delayed by something."

Laifu spoke beside his master, with a hint of uncertainty in his words.

He knew why the master tonight was so different, it was because he was waiting for his disciple to return.

But they also know that this is just wishful thinking, because it is not so coincidental that they will return tonight.

After all, if he came back, he probably wouldn't be so late on purpose.

Until late at night, Shu An couldn't help but shook his head. Although he was a little disappointed, he had already seen through it.

Whether you are an immortal emperor or a world-famous sage, you only have one life after all, and you only have one chance to gamble on your future. If you lose, you will lose everything.

Chapter 395 Returning from the Snowy Night, New Year

"Boom, sir!"

"Master, Xuan Ce is back!"

It was late at night, and when it was almost midnight, Shu An had already fallen asleep, because he knew that he didn't have to wait any longer tonight, but about two or three hours later, a hurried voice sounded.

"What? Back?"

Shu An, who was in a daze, woke up and said softly, but for some reason, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Master, but there is something wrong with the situation, and someone has already been sent to call for Miracle Doctor Sun."

However, before Shu An could relax, Lai Fu's voice continued to sound, which made Shu An also worried.

After thinking of this, Shu An didn't hesitate at all, got dressed and followed Lai Fu out.

Soon, Shu An came to a room where Wang Xuance lived before.

"Si Miao, what's the matter?"

As soon as Shu An came in, he saw the sloppy Wang Xuance on the bed, his eyes narrowed slightly and he said.

If he hadn't been in contact with Wang Xuance for a while, he would have almost lost his recognition. He was already so thin that he could hardly recognize him.

Putting it outside, even Shu An wouldn't find it strange to say that it was a beggar, but at this time, Shu's mansion didn't care too much.

Fortunately, he came back. As for other things, he will be treated after he returns. Even if he doesn't know the actual medical skills, he can still see that there is something wrong with Wang Xuance's situation.

"Anxuan, it's a good thing we discovered it early, it would be hard to tell if it was later."

"It's just that this child has suffered a lot. This time it has hurt his foundation. He needs to recuperate in the next few months."

Sun Simiao also breathed a sigh of relief, saying that he still knew about Wang Xuance.

Naturally, he didn't want anything to happen to Wang Xuance, not to mention it was the first time he had seen such a strong will, the fire of life seemed to be a flame in this heavy snow, which would never go out.

"Ok!"

Shu An nodded emphatically and said, the most indispensable thing in Shu Mansion is medicinal materials, so this matter is not difficult.

"Master, this is what Xuan Ce was holding on to when he passed out at the gate of the Shu Mansion."

On the side of Shu Kuangshi's face showed a trace of curiosity and said, you must know that he doesn't know much about this Wang Xuance.

All I know is that this is the youngest disciple of the master, and it is said that he was sent by his master to Tianzhu to do something.

He also didn't know about Tianzhu, he only knew that it was a country in the southwest of Tang Dynasty and went west.

Of course, it is obvious that Wang Xuance's life is dying, but he still pays attention to the things in his hands. Even Shu Kuangshi knows that this may be the purpose of Wang Xuance's trip to Tianzhu this time.

Shu An took the small bag carefully, he had already guessed what it was.

Although everything was sewn up, Shu An opened it very carefully. You must know that there are not many such seeds, and each one is related to the national destiny of Datang.

If a seed is damaged, it means that there will be one less cotton plant in the coming year.

You must know that even if it is the seeds brought back from the winter in Tianzhu, if you want to grow cotton, you have to wait until the next year at least.

The reason is very simple, that is, there are too few seeds, not that he does not want to plant on a large scale.

It is not easy to bring out these seeds. Don’t you see that cotton was not introduced until the Song Dynasty, so it can be seen that the people of Tianzhu are not stupid and know how to take precautions.

"Master, what is this?"

Seeing how his master treasured his treasure, even though he had never seen it in normal times, naturally aroused Shu Kuangshi's curiosity.

After all, the master has traveled all over the country for so many years, and he has never seen any rare things, but now he is so careful about this thing.

"This is a seed. It is worthless in the eyes of ordinary people, but it is worth any priceless treasure in front of the entire Tang Dynasty."

Shu An said quietly, this is the biggest evaluation given to this kind of seed.

After the words fell, Shu Kuangshi's face showed a hint of shock, because the evaluation was really too high.

Wang Xuance won't be able to get up for a while, but Shu An doesn't care anymore, because it's fine when he comes back, even if he is late.

Because of being woken up, the current Shu An didn't feel sleepy at all, instead he came to the courtyard and started to warm up the fire.

"It looks like the first day of the year is off to a good start."
