[Comprehensive] Travel to the world of martial arts and raise a boss

When Su Mengzhen walked into the teahouse, Zhuge Zheng and I had been sitting by the window and waiting for a while.

Seeing the person he was waiting for, he raised his glass slightly and said with a smile, "Here we come!"

Su Mengzhen coughed lightly and sat down opposite him, apologizing, "Master Zhuge, forgive me, I'm late."

Zhuge Zhengwo waved his hand indifferently, and said, "I know your situation well. It's not bad to be able to avoid the eyes and ears of interested people."

Su Mengzhen smiled faintly, picked up the teapot and filled it up for the person opposite, "Did you see him?" Although it was a question, it was in an affirmative tone.

Zhuge Zhengwo nodded his head, "Today, I have met him in Dachao."

"how?"

"I can't tell." Zhuge Zheng, who has always been confident, sighed, "He seems to be a very indifferent person, reticent, I don't understand why you chose him, after all, he is Cai Jing's student, and he is deeply respected by him. "

Su Mengzhen pressed her lips and coughed lightly: "I know him three years more than you do."

Zhuge Zheng raised his eyebrows, "I have also inquired about his political achievements in Yanzhou. He is indeed a talent, but he may not be able to be used by us."

Su Mengzhen was silent for a while, and then said: "Gu Lanxi is a square person."

"He may not have any loyalty to the court or the emperor, but he will never go along with people like Cai Jing. It has nothing to do with what kind of person he is, it is determined by his own personality."

Zhugezheng pondered for a while, and finally said: "I believe in the judgment of Master Su."

Su Mengzhen smiled, got up and said, "I have to go back."

"Do you need my help?"

"Thank you, sir, for your kindness." Su Mengzhen's face showed a faint but undeniable arrogance, "It's just a bunch of jumping clowns, I can still handle it."

He looks weak and modest, but there is a sharp spirit in his bones.

……

Lu Chongming naturally didn't know anything about the conversation about himself. He was trying to adapt to life in Kaifeng. After more than half a month, both business and personal affairs have gradually been on the right track.

It is much more difficult to be a deputy envoy of the Privy Council than to be the magistrate of Yanzhou. It does not refer to the difficulties in the position. The deputy envoy of the Privy Council is a military officer. For Lu Chongming, handling military affairs is much easier and smoother than managing political affairs and people's livelihood. The main reason is that The complicated situation in the court.

Although he didn't want to go through this muddy water, but with the two titles of Cai Jing's most proud student and the emperor's new favorite minister, even if he wanted to live his life in a low-key way, he couldn't do it.

What's more, there is a marriage that weighs heavily on him, which is even more troublesome.

Like, for example, now!

Lu Chongming looked at the young man with an arrogant face, almost looking at people with his chin, with an extremely cold expression.

"Get out of the way!" The deep voice was full of impatience.

Never has Third Young Master Cai been looked down upon like this before, only this Gu Lanxi, whether it was a few years ago or a few years later, always makes him unhappy, but he still can't touch him.

He tried his best to suppress the anger that kept coming up in his heart, and said disdainfully: "Do you think I want to see your dead face? If it's not for Si Niang, even if you invite me, I won't even set foot in your mansion."

"Why are you here!" Lu Chongming didn't want to listen to nonsense.

Third Young Master Cai looked ugly, "Follow me to see Si Niang!"

Unexpectedly, the other party would make such a request. Lu Chongming was a little surprised. He didn't even realize that Gu Xichao's hand holding his sleeve was clenched. He frowned slightly, and said in a reluctant tone: " Men and women are different, I'm afraid it's inconvenient."

"You are an unmarried couple, what's the inconvenience?!" Third Young Master Cai raised his voice, "Whether you like it or not, you must come with me today! I promised Si Niang that I will let her see my future What is your husband and son-in-law like? If you are not satisfied, it would be nice to get rid of the engagement as soon as possible!"

Hearing this, Lu Chongming's eyes lit up at first, but he soon calmed down again. The Song Dynasty paid attention to the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers. It is obviously impossible to withdraw marriage because of a woman's wishes, not to mention that this marriage involves more than just It's the two of them, and the solidification of his relationship with Chae-kyung.

Although the third son Cai is a dude, he knows some things in his heart, and he naturally knows that it is impossible to withdraw the marriage, otherwise he would definitely be the first to oppose this marriage because of how much he dislikes Lu Chongming.

He and Si Niang are about the same age, and they are the best couple among the brothers and sisters. Regarding her marriage, he can't get in the way. The only thing he can do is to bring people to her for her to see for herself. The final result cannot be changed.

In the end Lu Chongming went with him, it wasn't that he couldn't do anything about being entangled by the other party, and no one could force him to do what he didn't want to do. The reason why he agreed in the end was because of Gu Xichao, although he didn't know why Xiao Gu suddenly met someone who was with him It's okay, even the woman who was faintly repulsed became interested, but he didn't want to refute his intention.

The wife of the Cai family is a typical woman who was raised in a deep boudoir. She is well educated and reasonable, with a beautiful appearance. She will definitely be a good wife and mother when she gets married in the future.

A virtuous wife, marrying her can also give her a powerful backer, and her future career is limitless. This is something that any man can't refuse at first sight, but Lu Chongming only thinks it is a burden.

The man with a handsome face and outstanding temperament made the woman's cheeks blush. Seeing her expression, she was obviously very satisfied with Lu Chongming. Gu Xichao's eyes dimmed, and he suddenly pulled his father's sleeve and smiled: "Father! This is you A bride to marry?"

The young man's clear voice made Lu Chongming frowned slightly, not knowing what he was paying attention to, but the woman let out a soft cry and turned her gaze to him.

Gu Xi looked her up and down without any concealment, her straightforward gaze made the woman lower her eyes in embarrassment, staring at her lotus-coloured skirt, while Gu Xi showed a row of neat teeth to the instigator, smiling Said: "My sister is so beautiful!"

Si Niang's face turned even redder, just like the sunset glow in the summer sky, "You, you are also beautiful, I heard third brother said about you, I, I will take care of you in the future, treat you, treat you as your own child When the last sentence came out, her voice was almost inaudible. Girls shouldn't say such bold words, but their wedding day is just around the corner, and the two will soon be married. They are married, and Si Niang has also asked people to inquire about it. Hearing that Lu Chongming attaches great importance to this son, she said these words regardless of embarrassment.

The words seemed to be addressed to Gu Xichao, but anyone with ears would know who they were addressing.

It's just that Lu Chongming didn't care about it yet, but Gu Xichao suddenly laughed, "Treat me like your own son?!" He blinked his eyes with an innocent face, "My sister is only a few years older than me. If you want me to call you mother, I will But I can’t yell out.”

Obviously, she did not expect Gu Xichao to say such a thing, her mind was pure and innocent, and the girl who was not good at words was a little awkward, she didn't know how to refute for a while, her anxious face turned pale.

Lu Chongming, who had been standing aside without making a sound, frowned, and finally knew why the other party had to come to see someone. It turned out that he was a bully.

Although he doesn't like this marriage either, he still disdains bullying a teenage girl.

Pushing Gu Xichao's shoulder warningly, Lu Chongming nodded towards the woman opposite and said, "Little Gu is ignorant and offended Si Niang, please don't blame her."

"Ah—" Si Niang bit her lip, waved her hand and said, "I won't."

Now that they had met, Lu Chongming didn't want to stay any longer, and wanted to leave after saying hello.

When he was leaving, the young man beside him suddenly turned around and said, "Can I come and play with you tomorrow?"

His smile is very bright and beautiful, Gu Xichao is a very beautiful boy in the first place.

Some of the anger towards him disappeared in an instant, Si Niang nodded in agreement, and said yes in a soft voice.

On the way back, Lu Chongming kept sizing up the other party calmly, looking at him uncomfortably, and when he turned his head to stare at him, he said, "Tell me, what are you paying attention to?"

His plan?Naturally, his plan cannot be said.

So, Gu Xichao raised his chin and snorted, "I won't tell you!"

Lu Chongming: "..."

In the days that followed, Gu Xichao went to the Prime Minister's Mansion every now and then, so that the uncle who swept the floor at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion knew him well, because he was Lu Chongming's son, and he was still young, so maybe the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion also pretended to let him go Lu Chongming's beloved son wanted to foster a relationship with the future Mrs. Gu, so no one stopped him from coming.

At the beginning, Lu Chongming was paying attention to what the hell he was doing, but then he had no time to take care of his affairs, because a major event happened, a major event that shocked the government and the public, the emperor was assassinated!

On September [-], the Double Ninth Festival, the emperor led all the civil and military officials to climb high and look far away, admire the chrysanthemums and recite poems. Already touched the side of the emperor.

The scene at that time was very chaotic. After Lu Chongming threw the assassin over his shoulder with great effort, he heard someone shouting that the emperor was injured.

idiot!Lu Chongming cursed secretly, shouting like this is tantamount to setting up a target for people to chop down, and it will disturb the morale of the Song army, who is so brainless!

Fortunately, there are still one or two capable officials among the officials. Zhuge Zhengwo quickly led people to quell the sudden assassination, and Cai Jing also stabilized the civil and military officials.

Because of the assassin's matter, the whole Kaifeng was in a state of turmoil, and even Lu Chongming couldn't completely stay out of it, and even more ignored the things that should be paid attention to.
