Gu Ao said: "Being respectful is worse than obeying orders, please!"

Before he finished speaking, Lu Mouzhong had already walked away with his hands behind his back, Gu Ao followed him a few steps closer and followed behind him.

Passing through paths full of green hills and green scenery, mountain springs gurgling past, Gu Ao secretly observed the prefect of Hanzhong County, and saw that he walked with a bold and unrestrained heroism, he couldn't help saying: "I I have never seen such a bold person before. Just now I was rude, but he didn't seem to care, it seems that he is a casual person..."

Although he wanted Gu Ao to 'take him around', but Lu Mouzhong chose his own way like the wind, and walked out of the quiet bamboo forest at the end... The noise gradually rose in his ears, and he arrived at the Yuanmeng Court soon. .Lu Mouzhong stopped not far away, looked at the playful students coming in and out, raised his eyebrows slightly: "They all belong to the Liao family?"

Gu Ao said, "Five or six out of ten."

Lu Mouzhong stared at Yuanmeng Yuan for a while, then suddenly laughed, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, he said without hesitation: "That old man Liao Yong! Heh, there really is no hero in the world today, making Zhu Zi famous! "

Gu Ao was slightly taken aback, he hadn't heard such pleasant words for a long time, although he had never met Liao Taishou, but when he heard Lu Mouzhong's words, Gu Ao couldn't help but look at him with admiration, after all he put down a little and just saw it Wu Ruzhushe's heart was guarded, and he asked, "Why did you say that, my lord?"

Lu Mouzhong's eyes showed an undisguised rebelliousness, and he raised his eyebrows: "Why, Lao Er Liao has done such a dirty thing, so I'm not allowed to say it?"

Gu Ao couldn't help smiling slightly, and sighed: "But the Liao family takes it as a strategy."

"Hey!" Lu Mouzhong waved his wide sleeves, "Liao Quji, that incompetent boy, wants to make some noise every day to compete with the children of the Yong family. It seems that people in the world have no eyes, so he is listed in Yong Under the young master, he doesn't take a mirror to look at himself, just by that appearance, he can compare with Yong Chi in the slightest? Old Liao's kind, it is good to be able to be upright, what else does he want to stretch?"

Gu Ao was taken aback when he heard this.Seeing that Lu Mouzhong was talking about the quality of his actions, he suddenly jumped to his appearance, and he couldn't help but lose track of his thoughts.

Lu Mouzhong took a clear look at Gu Ao, and suddenly stretched out his hand to pat Gu Ao's shoulder: "You boy! Don't be so restrained! Why should I wait for a poor family? No matter what I do, it is nothing more than to win people It's just a sentence of "Small surnames don't know how to be educated." Wouldn't it be ridiculous to wait and learn?"

Gu Ao came back to his senses, followed a few steps, and could only say in a daze: "...that makes sense."

Lu Mouzhong has walked all the way to the gate of Shanyun Academy with his hands behind his back. The originally empty mountains and fields are now full of vehicles and tents. On the flags that are unfurled in the wind, the word "Lu" is written, and the mood is full of flamboyance. , but it is different from the solemn warrior who waited outside Shan Yunzi's gate before, and couldn't see his head.Before getting on his horse, Lu Mouzhong turned his head and said to Gu Ao: "Don't bother sending me off, I still have official duties, so I'll go to the county mansion to scold old Liao for the emperor, you can go back now!"

"Yes." Watching Lu Mouzhong riding his horse and raising his whip, and being escorted away by his chariot, Gu Ao couldn't help being dazed for a while, then turned his head and walked back.In the past and Huai Xin, when they mentioned this Lu Taishou of Hanzhong County, they didn't realize it, but now, when they saw him, he was completely different from what they had imagined.

----

It is said that at this time Liao Yong, the prefect of Jiangqu County, had already greeted Lu Mouzhong's guard of honor at the gate of the county mansion.

Lu Mouzhong snorted out his nose, got off his horse, patted the fine ash on the broad shoulders with embroidered gold patterns, and handed the whip to Liao Yong as soon as he raised his hand.

Now that Liao Yong is over forty years old, he sees himself as a hero with great power in his arms. Seeing the horsewhip stretched out in front of him, his face froze slightly, but he immediately calmed down again, smiled, and immediately handed it over to his servants , caught up a few steps, and said: "The old brother doesn't say hello when he comes, but the younger brother can go to the county boundary to meet him!"

"You don't need to pick it up!" Lu Mouzhong waved his hand, and went into the inner hall, Liao Yong hurriedly greeted the waiter: "Why don't you welcome Lu Taishou soon?"

Entering the inner room, Lu Mouzhong didn't ask to sit by himself, and sat on the main seat with his robe lifted, and Liao Yong smiled and sat on the opposite table with his robe lifted: "I don't know why you came so far away this time... ..."

Lu Mouzhong raised his eyebrows: "The emperor asked me to reward you, saying that you have made great achievements in guarding Shanyun Academy!"

"Oh!" Liao Yong sighed with an expression of waking up from a dream, "It turns out that this matter is what I thought, such a small matter of guarding the soil, can it be counted as credit? Your Majesty really cherishes us as courtiers!"

Lu Mouzhong looked at Liao Yong for a while, then suddenly stretched out his palm and slapped the table: "You also know it's not credit?!"

Liao Yong was taken aback for a moment, but then remained silent.

Lu Mouzhong sneered and said: "I think about the righteousness of being in the same robe with you, and I advise you a few words. The emperor is kind and kind, so he praises you for your meritorious service in guarding the academy, but what will happen if outsiders look at it without knowing the depth? They will think that you The eunuchs supported their own self-respect, and forcibly occupied Shanyun Academy...Look, look, now in Yuanmeng Academy, there are five or six out of ten children of the Liao family, what do you think if you let interested people see it?"

Liao Yong couldn't stand it any longer, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Just... just because I am afraid that someone will alienate the friendship between the monarch and his ministers in front of the emperor..."

"Hey..." Lu Mouzhong hooked his lips and laughed twice, "I will tell the emperor a few words about your affairs here."

Liao Yong hurriedly stood up and bowed to him: "It's really thanks to the old brother! The honor and disgrace of the Liao family are all tied to the old brother..."

"Hmm..." Lu Mouzhong sat down and glanced at Liao Yong, "It's good that you know."

Liao Yong's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his mouth was still respectful: "How come I don't know."

----

It is said that here Gu Ao sent Lu Mouzhong away, and then returned to Shanyun Zishe again, but saw that the warriors had already withdrawn, Gu Ao entered the house, but saw that there were no guests, the tea cup was slightly cold, and only the waiter was waiting. Bow down and clean up.

Yun Ang was not among them, an old servant was beating Shan Yunzi's back, Gu Ao walked in through the curtain, the sound of footsteps approached, Shan Yunzi opened his eyes, and said: "Ao'er, come here... I am about to find a teacher for you. You, say a few words and sit down."

"Yes." Gu Ao obeyed and sat upright.

Shan Yunzi looked at Gu Ao, waved his hand, ordered the attendants to go down, and closed the door, Shan Yunzi finally sighed, and said: "...the little pony will always gallop around the world when it grows up. You are so eager to learn, the old man is reluctant to let you go. But Mouzhong is right, I can't watch you for the rest of my life..."

"...Teacher?" Gu Ao heard the words, probably guessed the next words, and couldn't help but get serious.

"This is a letter of recommendation from this old man. It is for the prefects of Yingchuan, Hejian, Jibei, Yuyang, Shangdang, and Julu counties respectively. You can take the letter of recommendation and go straight to the county mansion to meet you. All the way Go, you also go and see the world..."

"Then... Teacher, your body?" Gu Ao asked with some concern.

"There is a cloud, don't worry. I have taught you everything the old man can teach you. You can travel around the world... You should know that I teach you these things not to make you serve me, but to make you serve me. The world is beneficial. If you serve me, why don't you do something to comfort me..." Shan Yunzi coughed suddenly, Gu Ao hurriedly got up and stretched out his arms to caress, the old man gradually calmed down , and then said again, "Even though Taishou Lu always treats poor people differently, the old man also praised you to him. But where you will end up in the end, you still have to decide for yourself..."

"...Yes, the students obey the teacher's instruction." Gu Ao bowed his body, "The teacher taught the students a lot, and the students have nothing to repay, but to thank the world..."

"Now that you know, let's go and pack our bags. Before leaving, come and say goodbye to this old man."

Gu Ao's eyes were slightly red: "Yes."

In Shanyun Academy, Shan Yunzi made a plan for Gu Ao, while in Jiangqu County, Liao Yong, the prefect, went inside shortly after Lv Mouzhong's car drove away. The table in the room was lifted, and the tea was turned over and spilled all over the floor.Liao Quji returned from dealing with county affairs, and this scene caught his eyes. He hurriedly stepped forward to support Liao Yong, and asked, "Father...this..."

Liao Yong shook his sleeves and yelled: "The shabby man who ran away from the army and settled down! He rode over the head of the Liao family because he was the favorite of the emperor. He didn't report when he entered the county. He took his private soldiers and ran around the river. I don't understand An old thing about etiquette! If I hadn't watched my father and brother plan..."

Liao Quji comforted him and said: "Father, don't be angry, don't ruin your body because of the popularity of a humble man, why bother?" He drank a cup of warm tea and offered it with both hands.

Liao Yong glanced at Liao Quji, originally this son was the most satisfying to him...but today Liao Yong couldn't help sighing with heartache: "Quji, since he is near the border of the county, why didn't the first part of the family play sooner?" Found this old man? If he hadn't fought the guard of honor in the academy, I, as the prefect, would not have known that he had entered the realm... Sigh... he is treating my Liao family like no one!"

Liao Quji also felt strange for a moment, frowned and said: "Father calm down, go to Jiding to investigate to the end."

Only then did Liao Yong take the teacup from Liao Quji's hand, took a sip, and drank the warm tea, then slowed down his tone and sneered: "However, I don't think the little old man can be a favorite for long. It's... isn't it rumored in the capital that the man is so sick that he has passed out?...How long can the little old man be domineering?"

Liao Quji bowed and agreed, "Exactly."

Speaking of this, Liao Yong laughed: "If you don't look at this, you have endured him for so long for your father?"
