If You Can’t Be a Son-in-law, You Have To Be Sanctified

The most talked-about event in Taixuan today is probably the son-in-law of the Nan family and the son-in-law of the Lu family summoning auspicious beasts to meet the holy king.

But at noon, this matter has already caused a lot of trouble.

Many details have also been spread out. For example, the last one who summoned the auspicious beast was Xu Baihe, the heavy armored general who took over the important task of King Chong'an and sat in Shenguan.

At that time, the sage had just ascended the throne, but Xu Baihe, a domestic slave, had an extraordinary heart. It was widely rumored in the capital that he saw Xiezhi in his dream, and since then he escaped from the lofty aristocratic mansion, and came to Taixuanjing in the middle of the night to call Swiss beast.

It was just because it was late at night, and because of many reasons, even many nobles in Beijing didn't know about it.

The earlier precedent is even more distant, dating back to the reign of the first emperor.

But what happened to the young man today, I don't know how many people in Beijing saw this scene. Even though they were separated by an extremely long distance, many people had seen the majestic auspicious beast in the sky above Taixuan Palace.

Closer, of course, he could vaguely see the figure of the young man on Ruishou's head.

Lu Jing, a young man who fell into the quagmire but still determined to improve, was talked about by everyone for a while, and everyone was emotional.

Later, many people found out that this young man was actually a scholar, but he did not kneel in the inner court of the Jingyin Mansion. The young man's cultivation of gods was already better than many children of your mansion.

All of a sudden, Lu Jing's name became famous in Taixuanjing.

I don't know how many people want to see what this outstanding young gentleman looks like.

In the mansion of Dazhu Kingdom.

Su Zhaoshi was still copying the isolated scriptures, and he did not hide the admiration in his tone when he spoke.

"I didn't expect Mr. Jing to have such a talent that he could awaken the auspicious beast, and even the auspicious beast felt that such a young man should not be underestimated, so he revealed himself.

On that day, Sheng Zi said that Lu Jing was very talented, that Lu Jing might be the next Bai Yan, and I thought it was true that he was very talented, but he was still not as good as Bai Yan.

Thinking about it now, Lu Jing's talent is probably much stronger than Bai Yan's, but he lacks a famous teacher. "

Su Zhaoshi said so.

Princess Anqing, who was sitting not far away from him, also had a gleam in his eyes: "I'm not too interested in Lu Jing's talent, but this matter sounds too interesting.

I heard that Mr. Nan Tinggui of the Nanguo Mansion had already led the crowd out early this morning, and wanted to go personally to deliver the wedding date booklets, but Lu Jing came instead. "

"He was written a formula by the old matriarch and the eldest lady of the Lu mansion, and he was cut off from his relationship. He was already a loner, but actually entering the Nan mansion is a good choice.

Moreover, Nanfu seems to have known about his extraordinaryness, and Nan Tinggui, who is in charge, personally sent the wedding post with great fanfare, which can be regarded as apologizing for the past.

The Nan family has a master of swordsmanship and many industries in Dafu. According to Nanfu's attitude, if Lu Jing really went to Nanfu, he would probably not suffer any grievances. "

Princess Anqing said this, but there was still a smile in his eyes: "I just didn't expect Lu Jing to be so proud, and he said bluntly that he would rather rot with the grass and trees than to be innocent.

Coupled with the many things before, Nan Fu and Lu Fu are afraid that they will be ridiculed by many people in Taixuan Jing for an unknown amount of time. "

Su Zhaoshi was not interested in these trivial matters, he just said: "You and I also met Lu Jing once, you were rude that day, if others hinder you and my status, I am afraid that I will endure it and deliberately cater to you There are not many.

But he got up and left decisively, which also shows that he is indeed arrogant. "

"It's understandable. Who is not proud of being a genius in this world? Sheng Zi once said that although Lu Jing was young, he treated others warmly and modestly on weekdays, but his mind was impartial. If he disagreed, he would never Deliberately flatter.

Sheng Zi and I also gave him a gentleman's sword, when he was still in the Lu residence, how had he ever seen such a treasure as a gentleman's sword? But he also refused to accept it on the grounds that he would not be rewarded for his lack of merit..."

When Su Zhaoshi said this, he couldn't help sighing: "Now that he has shown his talents and has broken ties with Nanfu, I'm afraid he will soon become the hottest young man in Xuandu.

I don't know how many big houses, I don't know how many forces will show favor to him, but he became famous at a young age, I don't know if he can still be as impartial as before. "

Princess Anqing's eyes flickered: "The most despised thing in this matter is the Jiuhu Lu family. The previous generation of Shen Xiao Bo "holding a knife to resist demons for eleven years", but now this Lu family has been criticized by many people because of this incident. The tabloids edited countless doggerel poems, and the reputation of 'the bad family chases the unicorn' has fallen."

"If the accumulation is not good, there will be disasters in the family, but no one else can blame it."

When Su Zhaoshi said this, he put down the Langhao pen in his hand, and gently blew the ink on the paper.

"It will be my father's birthday in a few days. I will send invitations to you in advance. I have lived in the deep mansion for a long time, and I don't have many friends. It's just a few of you, and I happened to come to get together."

Princess Anqing was naturally willing, and said with a smile: "I don't know why these days, I keep dreaming. In my dream, I dream of a sky dragon taking off. Maybe it's because I can see Dazhu Kingdom again."

"It's just a pity that Sheng Zi was severely reprimanded by Sheng Cifu because she went to Taixuan Palace privately, and she was ordered not to go out. I don't know if she will be able to come."

Su Zhaoshi frowned: "It seems that Sheng Zi really cares about Lu Jing very much, otherwise she wouldn't be in a hurry, she just wanted to help, and she just went to wait in front of Taixuan Palace, but she was with Xianyou The princess went into the palace together and sent someone to disturb Sheng Cifu who was discussing matters, so of course he will be punished."

Princess Anqing blinked her eyes, wondering what she was thinking.

Because of this matter, some people are curious, some people are happy, and naturally some people are worried.

The ones who were most annoyed were probably the old lady of the Lu family and several wives.

What annoyed them the most was that all these things were caused by Lu Jing.

But Lu Jing no longer had anything to do with the Lu family, not to mention being harsh and scolding like before, even the old matriarch sent a word to him, but that Lu Jing responded lightly with a word.

Because of this incident, the old matriarch was so angry that his seven orifices were full of smoke. It is said that he has a splitting headache these days and has closed his eyes all day long.

Naturally, Lu Jing didn't know this, and even if he knew, he would probably just laugh it off.

Because in his mind, the Lu family had buried many hidden dangers, and what happened in the past few days may only be regarded as a trivial matter for the Lu family in the future.

One day, the Lu family might lose even the title of earl.

Lu Jing always felt that he didn't need to pay more attention to the Lu family, the Lu family would naturally fall into a vast expanse of whiteness and the land was so clean.

There must be reasons for the rise and fall of wealthy families.

Just like what Su Zhaoshi said, if the accumulation of evil is not good, there will be disasters.

At this time, Lu Jing was walking slowly in the empty mountain alley with Qing Yue.

Kongshan Lane is located in Yanglu Street in the city.

Yanglu Street is quite spacious, not too far from the back door of the library, if there is a carriage, it only takes two quarters of an hour to get there.

Compared with Qingyun Street, Changning Street, and Jingyin Street, the biggest difference here is that the vast majority of people living here are not officials and officials, but rich businessmen of all kinds.

Many wealthy merchants have business affairs with Xuandu, and they travel between different ways and Xuandu, so they will naturally buy properties in Xuandu.

Because of this, the courtyards facing the street on this street are also magnificently built and look quite beautiful, but there are few people living in them.

After all, rich businessmen from all walks of life often travel frequently, and the mansions in Beijing are only used for lodging, and they don't have time to live in them for a long time.

Many wealthy businessmen also choose to rent out when not in use.

The reason why Lu Jing and Qing Yue came here was naturally to find a yard.

Although the Gu Yue Tower is very comfortable, it is still an inn and restaurant. Not to mention the expensive rooms, it is not considered a home.

Because of this, after lunch, Lu Jing and Qing Yue walked a few streets behind the study building and walked around several courtyards.

Finally, I arrived at Yanglu Street and this empty mountain alley.

At this time, there was a middle-aged tooth beside them.

"Although the houses in Kongshan Lane are not as good as the mansions facing the street, they are better in cleanliness, and the second is that most of the yards in Kongshan Lane are undeveloped yards. After all, every inch of gold and every inch of land in Taixuan Capital can be called , There are quite a few merchants who can afford mansions, but not all of them can afford second or third mansions."

A brown-clothed and hooded tooth was leading the way for the two of them, with a friendly smile on his rich face.

"Young master, look at this place."

Walking to a brown brick courtyard with many exquisite patterns carved on the wall.

Yazi took out a key as big as half a hand, unlocked it, and opened the courtyard door.

It seems that there are no people in the courtyard for a long time, and because it is winter, there are many fallen leaves.

But it can also be seen that the houses in this yard are quite exquisite, the houses are spacious, the wood is also painted with red paint, the same color of blue tiles, and the same wooden structure, there are three main rooms and two side rooms in total.

One wing room is the kitchen, and the other wing room is the hall.

Coupled with the stone platform in front of the house, the courtyard looks like a whole.

Looking at the flower beds in the courtyard now, they seem a bit dilapidated, but they only need to be tidied up carefully, and they can naturally complement the houses.

Qingyue looked at the yard, her eyebrows twitched, her beautiful eyes were clear and moist, and there was still some longing in them at this moment.

But then, she suppressed her eyes, tugged Lu Jing's sleeve lightly, and said in a low voice: "Master, I've heard people say this alley, it's good, but... besides, we can't help it." I don't know how long I can stay..."

Lu Jing naturally knew what Qingyue wanted to say.

It is nothing more than feeling that renting such a mansion would cost a lot of money.

Lu Jing smiled at her.

Yazi at the side saw Lu Jing's expression, and hit the rails while it was hot: "My lord, this courtyard is the family property of the Lihe Mansion. They bought it for renovation not long ago. Recently, there was a flood in Lihe, and the business of that family suffered. Unfortunately, the business with Jingzhong was also cut off.

But I was also reluctant to sell this Jingzhong family business, so I asked me to find a clean guest official to rent it out.

They have only lived there for two or three times after they were built. I see that the young master and young lady are well-dressed, and you are only two people living together, so you opened the gate of this courtyard and left this courtyard. It takes many times. "

Lu Jing naturally knew that what this tooth said was 50% true and 50% false.

But he and Qingyue looked at two or three houses today.

Only this courtyard is the cleanest, indeed the cleanest.

And Qingyue seemed very satisfied, so he didn't care too much, and was about to ask the price.

But at this moment, Lu Jing suddenly felt that there seemed to be something strange in front of the door.

Yuanshen Rizhao is naturally much sharper than ordinary people.

Lu Jing turned around, and saw a young man with a knife on his waist looking at him from a distance in front of the gate of the small courtyard.

When the young man saw Lu Jing turn around, he didn't enter the door, he was saluting from a distance.

"Trouble Mr. Lu."

The young man with the saber said in a calm tone, "My master will invite Mr. Lu to meet you this evening."

The Yaman was a little dissatisfied at first, after all, in his opinion, the deal was almost done, but he was interrupted like this.

But when he saw the long knife on the young man's waist and the handsome robe on the young man's body, he immediately lowered his head and didn't say much.

This is the Taixuan capital!

There are many high-ranking officials and nobles, and there are also many errands. If you are not careful, you will provoke very extraordinary people. They naturally understand the principle of being cautious in words and deeds.

Lu Jing frowned slightly.

The young man said again: "don't worry sir, after leaving Kongshan Lane, there will be a restaurant a hundred steps ahead.

The deer-raising sake produced by that restaurant is quite extraordinary, among the people walking on Yanglu Street, eighty-nine people go to that restaurant, and there are quite a few of them, so my young master made an appointment to meet there. "

Lu Jing naturally understood the words of the young man with a knife, it was to reassure Lu Jing.

"Who is your master?"

Lu Jing's words were straightforward, and he tilted his head and asked, "When you invite someone to meet you, you must always tell them their names."

The young man with the knife never hesitated: "My master is named Li Yushi, and he is the third young master of the Li family in Xuandu."

Lu Jing's expression remained unchanged, but he knew it in his heart.

The Li family in Xuandu...Even though Lu Jing is not familiar with many nobles in Beijing, he still understands how extraordinary the Li family is.

Because the current Dafu Shaozhu Kingdom is Li Guanlong, the Patriarch of the Li Family.

This Master Li Yu is exactly Li Guanlong's younger brother.

Li Guanlong of the Li family ascended to the position of the Zhu Kingdom at the age of thirty-two, and is also a well-known monk of the gods and martial arts.

Today, in the Dafu Dynasty, the three most powerful young people, apart from the current prince who is as thunderous as fire, are Li Guanlong of the Shaozhu Kingdom who "sitting upright and watching the dragon, the dragon dare not dance to the sky", and The Marquis of Zhongshan who was conferred with military exploits!

"Master Li Yu from the Li family...why do you want to see me?"

Lu Jing thought about it, but he didn't want to see Li Yushi.

A long time ago, Mr. Guanqi had already told him that he was in Taixuanjing, and he had some talents, so he would naturally receive many invitations.

Mr. Guanqi hopes that he can hold on to his heart and not be confused by external objects, otherwise he may encounter difficulties.

And the deep meaning contained in that heart-keeping brush is probably the same.

Although Lu Jing is talented now, his foundation is actually very weak.

Although he is Mr. Shulou, Shulou has always ignored the affairs of the court. If Mr. Louzhong is willing to become an official, he will never stop him if he is willing to become a guest minister of other big houses.

Correspondingly, the library requires the students and teachers in the middle school to "be kind to themselves", and if they cause any disaster, unless there is conclusive evidence, the matter is also contrary to the right way and reason, and the library seldom comes forward.

It is very different from the "zong" and "pai" in this world.

It is not much different from the "university" in Lu Jing's previous life, it is just a place for preaching and teaching.

It is precisely because of this that the library will become a holy place in the hearts of scholars all over the world.

Mr. Shulou is highly respected in Taixuanjing, but if something difficult happens, unless Lu Jing becomes Mr. Lou on the fourth floor of the Shulou, it will not be of much help.

In this bustling Taixuanjing, if Lu Jing can't hold back his heart, he may be drawn into some kind of vortex...

Because of this many considerations.

Lu Jing was about to reject the young man with a knife in front of him.

But the young man smiled and said: "My master ordered me to inform Mr. Jing, he is only here as a lobbyist, only as the mouthpiece of the more noble, if Mr. Jing refuses to go to the appointment, after my Mr., there will be others A steady stream of lobbyists are coming, and the harassing young master can't be quiet."

"Instead of that, Mr. Jing, why don't you see my master and listen to my master's words? If you don't want to, just have a drink with someone, and no one will bother you after that. Wouldn't it be better?"

The young man with the knife speaks very politely, neither rushing nor rushing.

"The more expensive one?"

Lu Jing's face was calm, he thought about it, but nodded.

"Knowing the name and taboo, and being nearby, I invite Mr. Li to meet you in the evening."

Lu Jing actually agrees with what the young man with a knife said just now.

Instead of always procrastinating about many things, it is better to come to the door and explain clearly, which can save a lot of trouble.

Hearing that Lu Jing agreed to come down, the knife-wielding young man saluted Lu Jing again, turned his head to look at the Yaman, then looked at the courtyard in Kongshan Lane, and said with a smile, "Mr. Jing, why waste time and effort?

With your current reputation, as long as you let out the wind, there will naturally be many rich and powerful families scrambling to give you the mansion.

My master also has vacant mansions on Changning Street, Yangsheng Street, and Jingyin Street, if Mr. Jing is willing..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Jing shook his head and said, "You will not be rewarded for your merits, thank you Mr. Li for me."

The young man with the knife stopped talking, bowed and left.

The Yaman next to Lu Jing looked a little unnatural.

He has lived in Beijing for a long time, and he has been doing business with this Yaman, so he naturally knows the names of many noble houses, and he also knows who Li Yushi from the Li family in Xuandu is.

At this moment, Li Yushi personally sent someone to invite the young master next to him, which made the man in front of him a little panicked.

"Young master, do you want my shopkeeper to come in person..."

He spoke tentatively.

But Lu Jing shook his head and said, "No need, you just need to give me a suitable rental price, if the price is suitable, we are willing to rent it, and you need to repair the irregularities in this courtyard, and the weeds in the courtyard must also be repaired. "

The tooth man nodded quickly.

——

Not enough tea time.

Lu Jing and Qing Yue had already walked out of Kongshan Alley.

The yard has also been rented.

Qingyue is still at a loss about what happened just now.

"Master, why is that Yaman so polite to you? Who is the person who invited you today?"

Qingyue walked half a step behind Lu Jing, her fluffy hair was so rare that she had never tied it up with a hairpin.

This is also the favorite dress of girls in Xuandu nowadays, it looks free and unrestrained.

It's just that Qingyue used to be in Lu's mansion, and she was also a maidservant in Lu's mansion, so naturally she couldn't be so careless.

Now that she is away from the Lu Mansion, Qingyue is really much freer.

But she treated Lu Jing as always, only thinking that she was the young master's maid in this life.

It was precisely because of this thought that even if she went out and walked on the street at this time, Qingyue was always half a step behind Lu Jing and refused to be in the same rank as him.

"It's just people who have nothing to do with you and me. Don't worry about it. I'll go to them at night and talk about it."

As Lu Jing said so, he grabbed Qingyue's cloak and pulled her down to be in the same row as him.

Qingyue's face remained unchanged, she was still half a step behind.

Lu Jing frowned slightly, but Qing Yue stuck out her tongue and said, "Master, if it's the rules of the mansion, if a maid dares to walk ahead of her master, she will be severely taught."

Lu Jing shook his head, but didn't say much.

He didn't quite understand why he said it many times, Qingyue always insisted on these trivial etiquettes, unwilling to relax.

So I didn't say any more, just let her follow her own thoughts.

At this time, the sun was shining on Lu Jing.

As Qingyue walked, she peeked at Lu Jing.

She felt the light fall on Lu Jing.

The light does not shine, and the dust is with the light. Compared with the past, it is much more peaceful.

"The young master escaped from the quagmire of Lu's mansion, but Nan's mansion is still here... If I'm not good, I won't be a good maid..."

"Qingyue."

As the two walked like this, Lu Jing suddenly made a sound, interrupting Qingyue's thoughts.

"The marriage contract with Nan Fu is gone."

"Huh?" Qingyue was stunned for a moment, and even stopped in her footsteps.

She stood there, staring at Lu Jing in front of her, in a daze.

Lu Jing turned his head and smiled at Qingyue: "My marriage contract with Miss Nan's family is over, and I won't go to Nanfu again, and you don't have to worry about Nanfu not wanting you."

Qingyue nodded in a daze, then followed Lu Jing forward.

It took more than ten steps.

Qingyue stopped again.

Lu Jing was a little puzzled, and looked at Qingyue again.

But at this time, Qingyue was wearing the cloak she bought for her, her head was bowed deeply, and her shoulders were trembling slightly.

Lu Jing, who was always indifferent on weekdays, panicked and was about to ask.

Qingyue raised her head.

But at this moment, Qingyue's face was dripping with tears, but there was still a smile on her face.

That smile was full of joy and relief.

"Master, did they say when the yard in Kongshan Lane will be cleaned up?"

Qingyue seemed to be asking something irrelevant to the moment, but Lu Jing knew what Qingyue was talking about.

Even after renting the courtyard, Qingyue still didn't know how long she could live there, and she didn't feel that it was the home of the two of them.

Until this moment, Qingyue's tone was almost impatient.

She quickly caught up with Lu Jing, but was still half a step behind Lu Jing, but she said in her mouth: "You need to prepare earlier, you need to buy some rice noodles, and you need new pots and stoves. By the way, when the young master is studying, you must There must be brighter window candles.

In fact, the white moon candle is brighter, but the price is a bit expensive.

There are also charcoal fires, you have to go to the morning market to buy them, the ones in the store are also too expensive, not worth it..."

Lu Jing walked towards Gu Yue Tower without saying a word.

Qing Yue followed behind Lu Jing, talking about these trivial things in life carefully.

At this time, Lu Jing suddenly felt that the meaning of life might be here.

Occasionally embellish some wind, flowers, snow and moon, embellish some whistling wind and thunder, but there is always some firewood, rice, oil and salt.

Everyone in the world is like this.

According to the record in the character annals he transcribed, even King Chong'an, who was able to swallow thunder disasters in spite of a round of scorching sun, always liked to drink a bowl of white rice porridge early in the morning on weekdays.

At this time, Lu Jing was naturally far inferior to King Chong'an.

He couldn't sit alone at the gate of the gods, couldn't stand upright and crush the world's warriors, and couldn't have the Northern Qin generals admire and kneel down when his energy and blood were exhausted.

But eating a bowl of Qingyue's clear soup noodles early in the morning...is still okay.

This chapter is guaranteed to be 6,000 words today.

I just finished writing a large volume, and the author sorted out the outline, so there will be no updates today, but everyone can rest assured that the monthly tickets owed will definitely be added, and continue to work hard tomorrow.

It's still a matter of update time. Because the author is a part-time job, sometimes he gets off work late and sometimes early. There is no way to set a definite time. We can only guarantee that there will be an update. If there is no update, a single chapter will be issued. I hope you don't mind.
