I was a gentleman in ancient times

"Bang bang bang!" There was a knock on the door, breaking the tranquility of the room.

Only then did Tao Jin come to his senses, and hurriedly pushed Xie Zhuo away.He hastily adjusted his skirts and crown belt again, then took a deep breath and said calmly, "What's the matter? Come in."

The door opened, and a servant came in. When he saw two people sitting at the table drinking tea, he didn't feel any difference in the atmosphere between them.I just don't know why Xie Langjun next to him is throwing knives one after another.He was frightened, and he didn't remember when he offended Xie Langjun?So he became even more cautious, and quickly knelt down and said, "Mr. Wei, just now Mr. Wei sent someone to deliver a letter, and I asked Mr. Lang to have a look."

Tao Jin gave a "hmm", took the letter and began to read it.After reading it, he handed it to Xie Zhuo, then waved his hand to let people go down.The man breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly exited, not forgetting to close the door behind him.

After Xie Zhuo finished reading, a look of joy appeared on his face, "The day has finally come."

They have been helping Wei Su with the layout. Originally, they thought it would not be so fast, but now they are waiting for the news all of a sudden. It has to be said that it is a surprise.

Tao Jin nodded, "I was thinking that I could take a break after being busy a while ago, but now I'm afraid I won't be able to keep my feet on the ground again."

Xie Zhuo felt a little distressed when he heard the words, he took his hand and said: "This time we are together, I will help you share."

Tao Jin broke free, her ears turned red, "No need, you go and do your own work. Now that Mr. Wei is employing people, why do you have to act like this? How can you be affectionate in front of such a big event?"

Xie Zhuo looked at him sadly with a hurt face, "Didn't I love you?"

Tao Jin paused, not knowing how to answer for a while, sighed, frowned and said: "I...I am in a mess right now, I will think about what you said. But now is not the time to talk At these times, let’s talk about it after everything has settled.”

Now that Tao Jin has said so, Xie Zhuo has nothing to do, he knows what Tao Jin means, but he still wants to avoid it.But even if he knew, it could only be up to him, who told him that he couldn't bear to force him too much.

"Well, I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer after this matter is over." Xie Zhuo nodded, and then I won't let you escape anymore.

Tao Jin was speechless, but with the mentality of being able to hide for a while, she could only nod and agree, "I'll go see Mr. Wei right now, you..."

Xie Zhuo showed a big smile, the sun was shining brightly, "Together!"

The two walked side by side, under the belt of the toga, no one noticed that Xie Zhuo's hand was already secretly pulling each other.Tao Jin struggled, but was held even tighter by Xie Zhuo. He was afraid that his movements would be too large and would be discovered by others, so he could only give Xie Zhuo a hard look and let him hold him.Xie Zhuo was satisfied, and shamelessly exchanged it for a big smile.

Young Master Huai really chose an auspicious day for everything, and after devoutly burning incense and taking a bath, he officially handed over the pleats and entered the palace to meet Lord Lou.

Lou Guojun also found it strange that Young Master Huai usually enters and exits the palace casually, why is it so formal today?

Young Master Huai is indeed Lou Guojun's favorite nephew, Lou Guojun was just surprised for a while, although he didn't know what he was doing, but he let him go.

In the afternoon, the royal palace was bathed in the winter sun, and Mr. Lou rarely had the leisure to take a walk in the garden and bask in the sun.

Since Young Master Huai is going to have an audience today, the garden in this winter has a special charm, let's come here to see what Young Master Huai wants to do.

There were cheering voices coming from the front, and a bunch of people crowded around there, but they didn't know what they were doing.

Seeing this situation, a palace official hurried forward to inquire. After a while, a person followed the palace attendant and came to see Mr. Lou.

Only then did Lou Guojun see clearly that this was his son Ruan Ji. Lou Guojun sent this son to Yingyang Academy in a rage, but he regretted it later.

Fortunately, he came back in a few years, but after the son came back, his temperament seemed to have changed a lot.In the past, I always liked to get close to him, but now I haven't seen anyone for a long time, and I don't know what I'm doing.

Wang Ziji saluted respectfully, Lou Guojun nodded, and asked, "What are you doing? A group of people are making noise and making noise."

Wang Ziji curled his lips, he didn't want to say it, but when his father asked, he had to say it, so he said: "I have researched a new gadget here, and I am experimenting with it over there."

Lou Guojun wanted to cultivate some relationship with this son, so he asked casually, "Oh? What is it?"

When Lou Guojun asked, Wang Ziji didn't dare to hide anything, so he had to ask someone to present the things.Lou Guojun picked up this strange-shaped wooden lump, and looked left and right, but he didn't see why. He really couldn't figure out what they were cheering for just now.

Wang Ziji saw Lord Lou's doubts and explained, "Father, don't underestimate this thing, it can fly."

"Can it fly?" Lou Guojun reconfirmed, seemingly unbelievable, "Just this lump of wood, do you think it can fly?"

Wang Ziji proudly said: "Of course, it took almost a year for my son to make this." Lou Guojun frowned when he heard this, no wonder he often doesn't see people, it turned out that all the hard work was spent on this.

Wang Ziji didn't see Lou Guojun's depression and helplessness, and said happily: "Father, look, there is a starting device here. This thing here is called a propeller. As long as you use external force, you can fly with the propeller. Father doesn't believe it. Erchen can give you a try."

Wang Ziji's cheerful appearance made Lou Guojun a little bit happier. It had been a long time since he had seen his son talking to him so easily.Lou Guojun also knew that this was because his son had been wronged outside, and he deliberately didn't want to talk to him.

Lou Guojun had nothing to do at this time, and wanted to talk more easily with his son, so he nodded in agreement.

The gadget was fiddled with in Wang Ziji's hands for a while, and suddenly it moved.Seeing this, Wang Ziji was excited, and his hands moved faster. After a while, he saw two leaf-shaped bamboo pieces on its head start to rotate.Then without anyone's assistance, the wooden lump actually started to move, then left the ground and flew upwards slowly.

Lou Guojun was also a little dumbfounded. Hearing about it and actually seeing it with his own eyes are two different things.He thought Wang Ziji was just talking, but he didn't expect that this little thing really flew by itself.

"This...isn't this the art of witchcraft?" Lou Guojun looked more and more wrong.It is automatic without wind, and it flies by itself without human power. If this is not the art of ghosts, gods, witches and Gu, what is it?

"This is not the art of witchcraft, this is called science, do you understand science?" Wang Ziji tried hard to explain, it was obviously a high-level scientific art, but he was mistaken for the art of witchcraft, and he panicked when he thought about it.

However, this thing didn't fly for a long time, but after only a few breaths, it wobbled and fell, and finally landed on the ground.

After confirming that this thing will not move again, Lou Guojun was relieved, "Bold Ruan Ji, what have you learned now? It's really unreasonable to spend energy on these heretical ways without studying hard!"

Wang Ziji was dumbfounded, he was talking and laughing happily just now, how could his father change his face when he changed his face?What is heresy?His theory is obviously well-founded and can be explained clearly.

"Father, this is not heresy! This is the scientific way that Mr. Wei advocates." Wang Ziji said with a stiff neck.

Hearing Mr. Wei's three words, Lou Guojun calmed down a little bit. "You say this is the way taught by Mr. Wei?"

"That's right!" Wang Ziji was not afraid of Lou Guojun's anger, and said straightforwardly: "Mr. Wei's ability is unimaginable to the world. He can instantly turn water into ice in summer, and he can also know when the wind blows under the scorching sun. When it rains, it is better to use ice to kindle fire."

Lou Guojun was silent, and his heart was greatly shocked. He knew that Wei Su was talented, Confucianism, Legalism, and Taoism were all excellent, but he didn't know that he would be able to use such mysterious techniques.Fortunately, such a person has come to Lou country, otherwise, if he becomes an enemy, it will be a great loss.

Lou Guojun's face turned pale, and his tone softened, "As a prince, what you should learn is the policy of governing the country and the foundation of pacifying the people. These things should not be taken as the foundation, do you know?"

Wang Ziji was not convinced, but at this moment he also knew that he should not blatantly disobey Lord Lou, so he replied absent-mindedly, "I know."

Wang Ziji's attitude was still good, Lou Guojun nodded in satisfaction.I wanted to say a few more words, but I heard someone from the palace reported that it was the young master who wanted to see him.

"Hey! Did this young master take some wrong medicine? This is the first time he heard that he came to see his father and reported it." Wang Ziji said sarcastically.

Wang Ziji and son Huai are deadly rivals, Lou Guojun is not ignorant.So he could only pretend not to hear Wang Ziji's words.Wave people over.

Not long after, Wang Ziji saw the well-dressed young master Huai.Wang Ziji laughed loudly, "I said Young Master Huai, why do you have such a unique demeanor today? In the past, even major festivals, I have never seen you so solemn."

Young Master Huaiyi saw Wang Ziji next to Lou Guojun, and thought in his heart that it was bad luck, why is this bastard here today.But since they are all here, there is absolutely no reason for him to back down.

After meeting Mr. Lou Guojun according to the ceremony, he said: "I have something to ask to see the king today, if Wang Ziji has nothing to do, can I avoid it for a while?"

Wang Ziji folded his arms, looking like he didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement.The more Young Master Huai wanted to avoid him, he refused to let him go, "What important matter do you have, it's nothing more than cockfighting and lackeys. Father, I also want to hear what's going on with my cousin. Maybe the son-in-law can still participate in it."

"You!" Young Master Huai saw that he did it on purpose, and he made it so clear, why is this person so ignorant?

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Lou Guojun quickly said: "Huai'er, just tell me what you have to do. It's the first time I've seen you be so serious. Come on and listen."

There is no way, Wang Ziji can't be driven away, and he can't give up halfway, so he can only bite the bullet and say: "I want to ask the king to give me a marriage."

Wang Ziji laughed out loud, but he didn't find out that Young Master Huai acted like a demon just to ask for a marriage. He was so laughable, he asked very curiously: "It's worth my cousin's trouble, but I don't know which one I'm interested in." little lady?"

This is exactly what Lou Guojun wanted to ask, he nodded and said: "That's right, let's listen to it."

Young Master Huai almost wanted to tear Wang Ziji's mouth, but in front of Lou Guojun, he could only endure it, "Reporting to Your Majesty, Huai is looking for Wei Zhen, the younger sister of Lord Wei Suwei."

"What?" Lou Guojun and Wang Ziji blurted out almost at the same time.Wang Ziji asked again in disbelief, "Who are you talking about? Mr. Wei's sister? Did I hear you right?"

Young Master Huai gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, you heard me right, what I'm talking about is exactly her."

Wang Ziji almost jumped, "Wishful thinking, Mr. Wei's sister is something you can imagine?"

Young Master Huai sneered and said, "What are you talking about? An unmarried man and a woman are unmarried, why are you wishful thinking? Isn't this just a golden and jade marriage?"

Wang Ziji was about to say something, but was stopped by Lou Guojun. Wang Ziji didn't dare to say more, so he shut up.Lou Guojun looked at Young Master Huai, "Are you serious?"

Young Master Huai nodded again and again, "It's absolutely true, I met a daughter of the Wei family once, and I never forget it, so I want to ask your majesty for a marriage letter, and I hope your majesty will make it happen."

Wang Ziji stood anxiously at the side, and stopped him: "Father, this matter must not be done. Mr. Wei regards his sister like a jewel like a treasure, and he said in the early years that the younger sister's marriage is for the younger sister to like, and outsiders are not allowed to interfere. It is unknown what her younger sister means to her cousin, if she rashly orders a marriage, it may backfire."

Lou Guojun was a little hesitant when he heard the words, the young master resented that he couldn't seal Wang Ziji's mouth, and it would be bad for him to meet this person.

He must not let this bastard spoil his good deeds, and begged on his knees: "My lord, Huai has never really asked you anything since I was a child. Today is only this one time, it is related to marriage, it is not a trifling matter, please let me do it. "

Lou Guojun's heart was shaken. Gong Zihuai is the son of the eldest princess, and the eldest princess is the eldest sister of his compatriots.When I was young, my mother passed away, my eldest sister was like my mother, and I have received the favor of the eldest princess, and I am able to have this position today thanks to the help of the eldest princess.

Later, the eldest princess died young, leaving only one son, and before she died, she entrusted her son Huai to herself.Over the years, he has favored Huai'er, but he also understands that Young Master Huai has never asked himself so seriously.

Huai'er said so, that means he really cares about the daughter of the Wei family, if he can facilitate this matter, it will be a good thing.Moreover, the marriage between the young master Huai and the daughter of the Wei family will allow Wei Su to truly integrate into Lou.If I find a suitable opportunity in the future, I will invite another princess and Wei Su, and I am not afraid that he will not do his best for Lou Guo.

Thinking of this, Lou Guojun became more determined in his mind.He nodded, and was about to answer, Wang Ziji had already understood, and hurriedly said: "Father, is Mr. Wei's sister after all, how about this, at least ask Mr. Wei what he means. It will also avoid the ambiguity between the monarch and his ministers." There is a gap."

"Oh!" It was not without reason.Lou Guojun hesitated again.

Young Master Huai snorted coldly, "There is an order from the King, so why bother?"

Seeing that Young Master Huai was deflated, Wang Ziji said with a smile: "Since there is an order from the father and the king, what is the cousin afraid of? Brothers and sisters of the Wei family depend on each other for their lives. There is a saying that the eldest brother is like a father. I wonder if it would be unreasonable to meet Mr. Wei? But, come to think of it. Mr. Wei will not disrespect the king's order, why should cousin worry?"

Young Master Huai stared at him, with nowhere to vent his anger.This is also the reason Lou Guojun thinks about, at least what Wang Ziji said is also reasonable.

"Forget it, the widow will send someone to order Wei Su to enter the palace to discuss this matter. Don't worry, Huai'er, the widow will make decisions for you in this matter, and you will definitely get what you want." Lou Guojun comforted.

Lou Guojun said so, and Young Master Huai couldn't help but agree.Lou Guojun was about to order people to go, when Wang Ziji stood up, "Father, my son is familiar with Mr. Wei, why don't you let me go. This is a happy event anyway, and I should be happy when I say anything." It is."

When Wang Ziji said this, Lou Guojun would not agree, "That's fine, but this is a business, you can't delay it." He instructed.

Wang Ziji responded repeatedly, but Gongzi Huai still had to stop him, Wang Ziji couldn't wait to disappear.
