How to work

Qu Youliangdao knew very little about the Sovereign Order, but it was enough for Lu Li.

At least he knows that there is an island called Chuanyun Island, which is the suzerain's own place, and successive suzerain decree holders were born there.The succession of suzerain orders is not based on blood, but on personal talent. Miao Hongxiao, this strange woman, was brought up by the old suzerain, and she is also the only female suzerain over the years.

Miao Hongxiao studied with the old suzerain, lived in a simple way when she was young, and was not well-known in the world.The old suzerain suddenly sensed the danger, sent Miao Hongxiao to Qu's house, told Qu Youliang some of the facts, told him not to speak to Miao Hongxiao, and actively encouraged Miao Hongxiao to live a normal life. If the old suzerain returns one day, he will naturally Tell her personally.

Miao Hongxiao is warm and cheerful, and she is also very beautiful. When she came to Qu's house, which is a place where both yang and yin are weak, she quickly attracted everyone's love.Not only the brothers and sisters of the same generation, but also the elders love her very much.

Miao Hongxiao is very smart, and her personality is quite eccentric. She created many legends in Shangjing and brought many benefits to the Qu family. She even accurately commented on their strengths and weaknesses, and suggested their appropriate development direction...

When Qu Youliang spoke, Lu Li kept watching him quietly.Looking at the old man with warm eyes, he talked about the past in a nostalgic tone.

In those years, Miao Hongxiao was a beautiful, confident, flamboyant and smart girl. She regarded etiquette and customs as nothing, dared to stand shoulder to shoulder with men, led her brothers and younger brothers to make troubles, caused troubles everywhere in the capital, and broke the hearts of the elders in the family.But no matter how bad the process was, she could always turn the situation around miraculously in the end, preventing herself and anyone in the Qu family from being hurt at all.

The Qu family's heart became stronger little by little, and in the end they even became as free and easy as a mountain, and the masts and sculls disappeared in smoke while talking and laughing.The mind is broadened, the horizons are broadened, and the world in the eyes also becomes different...

Miao Hongxiao has no blood relationship with the Qu family, but in Qu Youliang's description, the seven emotions of life are full of the past years, very vivid, those memories are like a huge net, tightly netting them, connecting them into an inseparable fetters.

Although the blood on their bodies is different, and even though their surnames are different, they are a family!

Lu Li's eyes were slightly hot, and he had the urge to shed tears. It's not that no one really loves this body...

"Then grandpa...does he know of my existence?" Lu Li was a little confused about how to call Qu Youliang according to Miao Hongxiao's identity, so he simply called him grandpa just like Qu Jiu.Anyway, Miao Hongxiao has no blood relationship with the Qu family, so it is appropriate to call him grandpa according to his age.

When the grandfather called, Qu Youliang smiled and narrowed his eyes instantly, he was so happy that he didn't know what to do.He dug out his pockets again and again and found that there was nothing good on him, so he simply took off the bag of gold beads hanging from his waist at any time and stuffed them into Lu Li's hands, "Take it for fun!"

Lu Li: ...you have already given the meeting gift!

The Qu family seems to be rich and powerful, and it seems that there is no shortage of this money, and the most important thing is that everyone is happy.Qu Youliang was nearly seventy years old, and the elder gave him a gift. Lu Li thanked him earnestly, and carefully put away the golden bead bag.

Qu Youliang was quite satisfied, but after he was satisfied, he felt a little embarrassed, "Grandpa will give you more good things in the future..."

Lu Li: ...

"You just asked me if I knew about your existence?" Qu Youliang was very unhappy when he thought of this puffing beard and staring, "Of course I do! You still hold the Catch Week at our house, right in front of the hall!" How could he forget Miao Hong smiled kids!

Lu Li didn't understand again, since Miao Hongxiao has such a close relationship with the Qu family... "Did you know when my mother had an accident?"

Qu Youliang sighed, "Your mother is very smart, she didn't notice anything wrong in one or two years, and in four or five years, it's impossible not to notice it after a long time. After she got married, she followed her husband and son-in-law around the world, so she should also learn about wearing clothes by the way. The matter of Yundao, but these matters have nothing to do with the Qu family, so she didn't mention it."

"When she had an accident, I received a letter. In the letter, she had many arrangements and asked me to help. She also said that nothing would happen to her, but the situation was urgent. She might not contact the Qu family for a long time. I know the suzerain As for the greatness, she also said that it was very serious in her letter, and she also said that if I don't do what he said, she will definitely die, and she will die with regret... I have no choice but to agree. "

That letter was actually Miao Hongxiao's arrangement for her funeral.He said that if there is news of her death, please ask Qu Youliang to go somewhere, collect the bones for cremation, and deal with all kinds of news one after another...

"So you think my mother is not dead?"

"Definitely not! Those bones are all fake!" Qu Youliang clenched his fists tightly, "Ah Xiao is so good, how could she die! She promised to come and see me!"

The ancients did not actually live long. Qu Youliang's age and physique are already rare. Lu Li didn't want to break the old man's expectations at all, but just asked, "Why did my mother put me in the Liu family and give it to my aunt Feng? Do you know?"

"I don't know!" Qu Youliang became even angrier when he said this, "Obviously my Qu family has the closest relationship with your mother, if you stay with me, you will definitely grow better! Your grandma couldn't close her eyes before she died, especially I want to see you, but I can't!"

As he spoke, Qu Youliang became more emotional, held Lu Li's hand, and touched his face carefully, as if confirming something, "I know you won't die, how could your mother let you die..."

Lu Li was afraid that the old man would be sad, so he hurriedly leaned over to let Qu Youliang touch his head, and shook his arm with a smile, "I'm fine, I've learned my skills, and I can always scare others to scream, Grandpa, don't worry!"

"Okay, okay...Little Lizi is a good boy!" Qu Youliang was amused, but then he asked, "Then how does the Liu family treat you?"

Lu Li thought for a while, and began to sue Feng Shi, saying that she didn't love him, and sometimes she couldn't eat enough when she was a child. It was all thanks to the kind neighbors at the time that she lived a good life.

The old man has a deep affection for Miao Hongxiao, and seeing his emotional ups and downs, Lu Li is worried about the old man's health.Let the old man think that he lived a good life by lightly talking about his past experience, but Feng's is a little bit bad, but it's not too bad. He's still growing up healthy and healthy...it should be much better.

Sure enough, Qu Youliang clapped his hands after hearing this, "That wicked woman of the Feng family, look back and watch Grandpa take care of her!"

"Yeah, grandpa wants to make the decision for me and beat up everyone who bullies me!"

"Hahaha that's right, beat everyone down and see who dares to bully my grandson!"

The old man still feels distressed, but seeing Lu Li full of energy and begging him to be a backer, he is in a very good mood!

"Does Grandpa know this Feng family?"

"I don't know." Qu Youliang shook his head, his voice was slow, as if he didn't understand, "Your mother has no relatives, only the suzerain's subordinates."

Lu Li nodded, having some guesses in his heart.Miao Hongxiao didn’t come to find the Qu family who was close to her when something happened. It must be because the situation was tense at the time. She was very popular in Beijing. She was worried that if something unexpected happened, Lu Li’s sending to the Qu family would be like a target, not only her own safety could not be guaranteed. , will also implicate the Qu family, and simply arrange another place for him.

Miao Hongxiao has suzerain orders, and suzerain orders have given countless favors, Lu Li guessed that Feng's family or his elders were benefactors, Miao Hongxiao had entrusted them, they dare not refuse.As for why the Feng family treated him so harshly... People are different, there are those who reciprocate kindness and those who are ungrateful.

Lu Li had been in the Liu family for many years and knew that Feng was the only daughter of a squire. A few years after the squire married his daughter, she suddenly died of a sudden illness... Lu Li boldly guessed that the beneficiary was probably the squire, but Feng might not have known about it.

Otherwise, with Feng's temperament, he can be manipulated by virtue of his relationship with the second concubine of Prince Ping's mansion. If he knows Miao Hongxiao's level, it will probably be even more important.

The Feng family is located in a remote place, and their family background is not very big. Lu Li guessed that Miao Hongxiao's arrangement should be to prevent him from being known by the outside world, so as to save his life.

Lu Li thought for a while, then asked Qu Youliang, "Did Grandpa know that my mother has engaged me?"

"I know," Qu Youliang stroked his beard, smiling so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, "Your mother was not in Beijing at the time, and she just wrote a letter back, saying that she had booked a door for you, and said a lot in the letter, but she forgot to mention her family. The name of the portal... which girl is she, is she pretty?"

"girl?"

Qu Youliang didn't hear the weirdness in Lu Li's words, and laughed, "Your mother said that the child looks like your mother, with pink makeup and jade carvings, and it looks good! The child's mother and your mother are good friends. Since we are married to Jinlan, I will book this marriage for you... The elders have a good relationship, and if you get a good wife in the future, you will have a good life!"

It turns out that this relationship was made through a fight over wine?The corners of Lu Li's eyes twitched.

Zhao Zhu is good-looking, but...fancy makeup?No matter how Lu Li couldn't connect these four words with him.

Lu Li understands that Qu Youliang has misunderstood, but the matter has already been decided, and there will be a long time to come, it seems that it is not good to hide it from the old man... He tilted his head slightly, "Zhao Zhu."

Qu Youliang didn't understand, "Huh?"

"Prince Ping... Zhao Zhu."

Qu Youliang didn't think of the two of them together at all, "I know the name of King Ping, but what does he have to do with your matter?"

"The one who is betrothed to me..." Lu Li smiled lightly, "It is Prince Ping Zhao Zhu."

Qu Youliang was stunned for a while, then suddenly jumped up, "What did you say!"

Lu Li hurriedly stood up to support the old man, and at the same time patted his back to comfort him, "We are... engaged."

"Dignified King Ping, he even forcibly snatched the women of the people... Ah bah, the man of the people!" Qu Youliang rolled up his sleeves and ran out, "This old man will fight with him! So what if the enemy of Hades is sad, if you dare to bully my grandson, this old man will kill you To the front of his palace!"

"Grandpa—" Lu Li was in a hurry, but unfortunately he couldn't grab Qu Youliang with all his strength.

The old man's excitement made his voice so loud that the Qu family is still holding a tea party in the outer hall, waiting for the old man to finish speaking, so that they can get close to their younger brother, drink some wine and play for a while, and when they hear the old man roaring, they think When something happened, he immediately surrounded him, "What's wrong, what's wrong!"

Although Qu Youliang is not young, but he is very strong, with a big wave of his hand, he lifted Lu Li to the back, raised his arms and shouted, "Children, copy guys!"

The Qu family brothers roared loudly, "Yes!"

Qu Youliang shouted again, "Follow this old man and kill King Ping!"

The Qu family brothers shouted yes in a low voice, "...Grandpa, Prince Ping is not easy to mess with."

Qu Youliang stared, "He wants to kidnap your younger brother to be his wife! Lock him up and beat him every day!"

It's okay, the eyes of the Qu family brothers immediately turned red, and they raised their arms and shouted, "Mie! If you dare to bully Xiao Lizi, step on our corpse!"

The heroes were furious.

……

Lu Li just thought that if he wanted to recognize the Qu family as relatives, it would be difficult to hide some things, but he really didn't expect that this would be the result!Moreover, he was not as strong as the Qu family, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't squeeze through, and no matter how loud he shouted, his voice would be drowned out by the roar of the Qu family brothers, no one listened to his explanation!

This group of people surrounded him in the center of the world before, expecting him to speak, but now they don't look at him at all, they all roll up their sleeves to copy guys, they don't even hold the swearing-in meeting. Splash the palace!

Lu Li: ... Can such a simple person really stand up for several years and be favored by the emperor?

Just as I was having a headache, how to appease this group of people, suddenly a voice came, "What are you going to do with me?"

This voice was deep and dim, with the chill of the night, the coercion of the superior, full of presence...it was Zhao Zhu.

When the Qu family saw Prince Ping, who suddenly appeared in their yard, dressed in the prince's uniform, unabated in the moonlight, with murderous aura, they were all taken aback.But it was only for a moment, Qu Youliang rushed forward first, his eyes widened, "You don't want to take my grandson away!"

Zhao Zhu narrowed his eyes, "Your grandson is—"

Before he could say "what" in the back, Lu Li had already shouted his name from behind the crowd, "Zhao Zhu!"

Lu Li shouted and squeezed in, but unfortunately there were too many Qu family members, so he couldn't squeeze out...

"Lu Li!" Zhao Zhu glanced at the Qu family with dead eyes, what did this group of people do to his wife!If Lu Li hurt even a single hair, these people wouldn't have to live!

It was Qu Jiu who was clever enough to help squeeze a way out and let Lu Li pass.

God pity, he really wanted to object just now, but everyone was so excited that no one listened to his words!

Lu Li glanced at him gratefully, rushed to the front, opened his arms——

Zhao Zhu caught him firmly and held him in his arms.

Lu Li felt that the farce tonight was difficult to break through, so he simply gritted his teeth, and leaned over to kiss Zhao Zhu's lips in full view.

In an instant, people on both sides were stunned.

The Qu family's eyes were all round, their mouths were wide open, and they could hardly speak. What did they see! ! ! !

Zhao Zhu also looked at Lu Li in surprise.When the two get along, Lu Li is enthusiastic, but he is always very shy in front of people and refuses to get too close to him. What kind of welfare is this now?

After the kiss, Lu Li coughed, pointed to the Qu family and said to Zhao Zhu, "This is my natal family, you are not allowed to be cruel to them!"

After speaking, he looked at the Qu family, "That's it... Zhao Zhu and I have long been engaged, and now we have a strong relationship, and we may get married soon, and we will need everyone's help at that time..."

The Qu family members were all stunned.

Just came back, tender and soft cute little brother, before they had time to love, they were taken away by someone!It was such a big wolf that took my brother away!The brothers of the Qu family were bleeding in their hearts. They really didn't want to believe the facts, and they still wanted to chop Zhao Zhu up!

In the past, King Ping, who was admired by everyone and who dared not look at him too high, is disgusting no matter how he looks at it now, and he is not afraid at all!

Qu Youliang was still in a daze and didn't move, it seemed that he hadn't figured it out.

Lu Li felt that he had caused a catastrophe, and he didn't dare to stay where he was to provoke everyone. He hugged Zhao Zhu's neck and whispered, "Let's go."

Zhao Zhu was naturally obedient, originally he came here to pick up his wife.

While walking out with Zhao Zhu, Lu Li bid farewell to the Qu family, and he did not forget to call grandpa a few times sweetly, "I will come to see you again in two days, you can't be angry with me...you are my grandpa !"

The figures of the two disappeared quickly, and the Qu family was very quiet. You could probably hear a needle drop in the yard.

Qu Jiu stepped forward to comfort Qu Youliang in a gentle voice, "Grandpa, Xiao Lizi has a very good relationship with King Ping, and King Ping is very protective of him...but the one in Prince Ping's mansion is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and the two will soon get married, you How about standing up and protecting the little oak..."

That public kiss had already made Qu Youliang understand Lu Li's intentions. The old man was so shocked that he didn't want to believe it at all, but Lu Li liked it, so others couldn't care about it, just like his mother and her husband were chosen by herself.

And this marriage was arranged for him by Miao Hongxiao... Qu Youliang really wanted to scold Miao Hongxiao for making a mistake, but when Qu Jiu mentioned the successor concubine of Prince Ping's residence, he immediately stared, "She dares!"

Yes, he likes men more than Lu Li, and this man happened to be ordered by his mother for him. More importantly, he is the evil mother-in-law he will face!

He thought that Lu Li didn't have a mother's family to bully him, so he just looked at that wicked woman, he old man Qu is amazing!

……

Lu Li dragged Zhao Zhu around outside Qu's house twice, seeing that there was no big movement in Qu's house, and the hidden guards also sent news that everything was safe, Lu Li breathed a sigh of relief and left with Zhao Zhu.

Zhao Zhu remembered the previous kiss, hugged Lu Li and kissed for a long time under the moon before letting go, "How's your harvest today?"

Lu Li carefully told him what he knew about the past from Qu Youliang, and discussed with him his conjectures.

Zhao Zhu listened to the jaw, "I guessed the same as you, your mother had her own considerations in her actions, and the situation was probably very tense at that time."

"I think... my mother probably didn't intentionally ration me to a man, she probably has other plans with your mother." Zhao Zhu confessed before that he didn't know about Miao Hongxiao, and Lu Li came to this result after comparing .

For example, only temporarily can we avoid disasters, and then we can find a solution after they grow up.

Zhao Zhu didn't think about this problem at all, anyway, the matter has been settled by now!He hugged Lu Li tightly, possessive, "You are mine."

In fact, Lu Li wasn't bothered by this question, he just thought of it by chance. He touched Zhao Zhu's face and said, "Well, you are mine too."

The two got tired of it for a while, and Lu Li sighed, "Unfortunately, the question about my father... I haven't had time to ask it yet."

Zhao Zhu kissed his forehead, "It will be a long time."

"That's true." Under the moonlight, Lu Li's smile was so bright that it seemed to be able to illuminate people's hearts.

……

Lu Li was thinking about whether the Feng family's affairs were as he guessed, and asked Zhao Zhu to investigate the Feng family's affairs, and the hidden guards sent him a piece of news that he didn't like very much.

Mrs. Feng was heading towards Shangjing.

And with great fanfare and a ostentatious posture, he said that he wanted to discuss the marriage between Lu Li and Prince Ping's mansion.

Lu Li intuitively felt that something was going on here, and frowned, but Zhao Zhu snorted coldly, and hugged him into his arms, "With me here, what are you afraid of!"

Lu Li sighed, he wasn't afraid, he just felt... very troublesome.

……

Unexpectedly, he met Zhao Zhu's half-brother Zhao Xi on the road before Feng Shi.

Xu Shi didn't read the almanac when he went out. This day was really a very busy day for Lu Li.

That day Zhao Zhu was called into the palace by Emperor Taijia, Lu Li was sitting bored, took Hu Weiwei out for a stroll, and after walking into the market for a while, he ran into Zhao Xi.

Zhao Xi's brocade hat and Chinese clothes, even the boots are decorated with precious stones, which can be said to be rich and noble.When he arrogantly led his servants to block Lu Li's way, Lu Li felt that his face was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before, but this person was obviously coming for him... Lu Li cupped his hands and asked, "Your Excellency yes--"

Zhao Xi narrowed his eyes slightly, and opened and closed his thin red lips, "Why, sir, you don't recognize me?"

The cold tone proves that the visitor is not good.Lu Li was not polite, his voice became colder, "Should I know Your Excellency?"

"Some people always think too highly of themselves, think that if they hug their big golden legs, they can climb high and look far away, one person is under ten thousand people... But it's a pity, if you can't get on the stage, you can't get on the stage .My brother has been engaged to a fiancée for a long time, and is currently discussing marriage. I advise you to be a little self-aware and stay away from my brother!"

Zhao Xi's tone was very rude.Ever since Zhao Zhu returned to Shangjing, he seemed to have changed. In the past, he looked for opportunities to get close to his elder brother. Even if Zhao Zhu didn't like it, he didn't push him away coldly. But since the end of last year, things have changed. Zhao Zhu is very annoying. His younger brother.

It was only later that he found out that Zhao Zhu had a lover in the golden house of Zangjiao.

For the sake of this friendship, he also warned himself and his mother not to get close, not to play tricks, even for something as big as spring hunting, he locked himself and his mother in the mansion and did not let them go out!

He had never heard of Lu Li before, after a little research, he only knew that he was a lowly worker, he didn't know which mountain he climbed out of, he was a lowly person, his status was low, and even the things he did were low!Zhao Zhu still protects such a person!

This kind of person is generally not very knowledgeable. He urged the car to go outside Lu Li's garden, wanting to show kindness. He met Lu Li and coaxed him to see if he could grasp it and do something beneficial to himself and his mother. People obviously saw him, but they didn't go up to greet him!

It's fine if you don't come forward, and let the servants come over to drive them away!

If Zhao Zhu's figure hadn't appeared far away at that time...

Zhao Xi didn't bother to give a lesson to such a lowly and ignorant person, but today he lost a bet with someone, and his mood was very upset. How dare this person bump into him!

He thought of his mother mentioning that Zhao Zhu's fiancée who didn't know her name was coming, so he simply felt disgusted and disgusted Lu Li, which also made him feel afraid, not everyone can enter the palace!

If Lu Li is savvy and knows how to curry favor with him...he doesn't mind giving some favors, so everyone can cooperate.

Lu Li's answer was: just turn around and leave.

Don't want to talk to this guy at all.

In a hurry, Zhao Xi stretched out his hand to grab Lu Li's sleeve——

But with a bang, he was knocked down.

"Who doesn't have eyes, dares to bully my young master's friend!" Shen Wansha held the jade fan in his hand, and stretched it in front of him, his eyebrows raised, and his eyes showed a fierce look.

Looking at the instantly swollen red marks on his hands, Zhao Xi narrowed his eyes...
