Daily life of black skin cub's princess

Lu Xi returned the jade pendant to Xu Zixiu: "Is your father Xu Jingcheng right?"

Xu Zixiu was surprised: "Brother, do you know my father?"

"Put the jade pendant away carefully, and don't show it to anyone. This jade pendant can save your life at critical moments, you know?"

Xu Zixiu scratched his hair: "Mother gave it to me before leaving. She did say that this jade pendant can save her life, but isn't this just an ordinary jade pendant?"

Lu Xi smiled slightly: "Just keep it, and you will know in the future." Immediately, he changed the topic, "Let me guess, I wrote the names of the three of you on the invitation, and it is said that all three of you can stay in the villa. Was it kicked out by the owner of the villa?"

"Are you a half-immortal?!" Xu Zixiu's jaw was about to drop, "How do you know everything? The owner of the villa doesn't count me as driving me away, but it really makes things difficult for me. A gentleman can't eat what you get, so I naturally don't want to continue to rely on it." .”

Lu Xi sighed: "Your father is an upright man, and he offended many people back then, especially he had some problems with the owner of the villa. I didn't think about it deeply at first, but now it seems that you and your father are [-]% similar in appearance. , the owner of the villa may indeed make things difficult for you."

Xu Zixiu opened his mouth, but didn't say anything, because the amount of information was far beyond his comprehension. He thought his father was just an ordinary official, and he even made enemies?

"Before you gain a firm foothold in the capital, I suggest that you keep quiet about your father's identity." For an official, the imperial examination is just the beginning, and the long career is not so easy.

"Can I ask why?" Xu Zixiu pursed his lips, "Did my father do any evil things back then?"

"No, on the contrary, your father is a very upright official." Lu Xi said slowly, "It's just that your father was the Prince's Shaofu at the beginning, and he once gave lectures to the Prince. But now that the Prince is weak, if others know that you are the son of Xu Jingcheng , will definitely think that you are a supporter of the prince, which is not good for you."

Xu Zixiu frowned and pondered for a while, then stood up abruptly: "But the crown prince is the crown prince and the future emperor. There is nothing wrong with the current crown prince's ability and integrity. Even if everyone thinks that Xu is the crown prince's supporter, so what? To establish a concubine, to establish an elder but not to establish a young one, even if the sage is in good health, there is absolutely no reason for him to have a young son!"

Lu Xie rubbed his brows and felt a bit of a headache. Just as he was about to speak, Wu Xun, who had been listening quietly all this time, suddenly said, "Brother Xu, you might as well calm down. Xiao Xie doesn't mean to harm you, let alone disturb Chao Gang. I will deal with the court affairs." Although I don’t understand it, I understand the principle of showing your sharpness. If you really support the prince, you should hide your strength and bide your time, and wait for the opportunity to help the prince. Although ants have the ability to break the embankment, the premise is not to be discovered.”

Wu Xun's words fell on Xu Zixiu like heavy rain outside the house.

Xu Zixiu sat back on the chair. He was in a daze for a long time, and smiled wryly for a while, "Zixiu has been taught. Although I have been older than the young man for two years, I still don't see it as thoroughly as the young man."

Wu Xun tilted his head and pointed at Lu Li: "Are you older than Xiao Ling? I am the same age as Xiao Ling."

Xu Zixiu looked at Wu Xun and then at Lu Xun, with a shocked expression on his face: "The two brothers are the same age?!"

Wu Xun nodded: "Didn't I say that we are Fa Xiao?"

Xu Zixiu: "..." He knew he knew, but Lu Xi looked really calm, and the two of them didn't look like they were the same age.

Lu Xun sneered: "You didn't mention your name when we met for the first time, and judging by your attire, you must have not reached the top yet. Xun'er and I should be a few years older than you."

"It's Zixiu who is being rude." Xu Zixiu stood with his hands folded, bowed and said, "I haven't asked the names of the two brothers yet."

"My name is Wu Xun."

Lu Xi pondered for a while: "I do six." Then he didn't say much more.

Xu Zixiu had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly remembered what the boss of the gambling shop called Lu Xi, and cupped his hands: "Wu Shaoxia, Liu Shao."

Lu Xi smiled. He was indeed Xu Jingcheng's son, but he was honest but not rigid.

At the beginning, the father took a fancy to this point, so he tried his best to point out Xu Jingcheng, who was young at that time, to be his young master.Shaofu, one of the three orphans, also cultivates virtue.Although the crown prince's three masters and three orphans were headed by the grand master and the young master who taught literature, the first lesson of the princes in Dayu's dynasties was not to study literature or martial arts, but to learn virtue.

"I have an old relationship with your father, and it's inconvenient to take the imperial examination soon. Why don't you just stay here, and you don't need to worry about food and clothing." Lu Xi took a sip of tea, put down the teacup and called, "Uncle Ning,

you come in. "

Ning Bo had been guarding outside the house, but soon came in when he heard Lu Xi calling him: "Young Master, please order."

"Ning Bo, take Mr. Xu to find a room to settle down, and wait until the day when the imperial examination results are announced before making other plans."

Uncle Ning bowed in response: "Yes, young master. Mr. Xu, you come with this old slave."

Xu Zixiu cupped his hands again and again: "I'm here to help the housekeeper."

After Ning Bo left with Xu Zixiu, the room became quiet. Just as Wu Xun wanted to ask Lu Xi what was going on with Xu Zixiu, he saw Lu Xi looking at him with a smile.

"What, what's wrong?" Wu Xun touched his cheek, "Did something get on it?"

Lu Xie's eyes softened: "You are always more transparent and smarter than I imagined." When Wu Xun said to Xu Zixiu, Lu Xie was surprised first and then pleased, because he always felt that Xun'er As a child, he only took Xun'er to see many things, but he never made too many subjective evaluations, just to let Xun'er perceive and think by himself.He is not in a hurry, because in his plan, Xun'er has a long time to slowly adapt to this cunning court.But what he didn't expect was that Xun'er's growth far exceeded his imagination.

"It was you who taught me." Wu Xun felt a little embarrassed, "You said that day that the emperor must be good at using the art of balance. Your father told me that the current crown prince is both civil and military, and he is much more powerful than the emperor." Very courageous, the emperor wished he could retire and abdicate immediately. I think if such a person makes outsiders look weak, it is very likely that he is hiding his strength and biding his time."

"Although I don't understand government affairs, I know that where there are people, there has never been peace." Wu Xun said with a bit of helplessness in his tone, "Others say that martial arts heroes are heroes and knights, but whether it is a sect or an individual, it is true that there is no peace." When it comes time to eliminate dissidents, no one will die under the knife, so it is for his own good that you persuade Xu Zixiu to be wise and wise." Wu Xun took off his Buddhist beads, watched the heavy rain outside the house, and said a Buddhist verse , "Amitabha, good and good."

"Then let me ask you a question, why doesn't the prince compete with you for the first place?"

"Because the struggle between strong and powerful is bloody and bloody. Now that the people live and work in peace and contentment, there is no need to fight for endless troubles. Moreover, the seemingly number one in the martial arts has never been the best martial arts person. The real peerless master has long been unwilling to compete for such a false name. " Wu Xun thought for a while, "What's more, the sixth grandfather, Grandpa Shen, said that the king does not fight with his ministers."

"Okay! It's good that the king doesn't fight with his ministers." Lu Xi laughed loudly, "I'm really going to thank my grandparents."

"Thanks for what?"

"Thank them for teaching you so well." Lu Xun pinched Wu Xun's cheek, "But you must remember that when you enter the palace to face the saint in the future, if the emperor says anything about retiring and giving way You can't believe it or answer it, you know?" He never thought that his father would be so shameless, to brainwash Xun'er in order to retire.

"I'm not stupid." Wu Xun nodded emphatically, "Of course I know that this is outrageous, and you are not allowed to call me stupid in the future."

Lu Xi rubbed him casually: "You are not stupid in this respect, but you are stupid in some respects."

Wu Xun: "..." Can you fight?Want to fight.

***

The next day, it rained.

After thinking about it, Xu Zixiu still felt a little sorry for eating and drinking for free, so he went to find Lu Xun again. When he went to the flower hall, Lu Xun and Wu Xun were discussing about Xu Zixiu's jade pendant.

After all, Wu Xun entered the rivers and lakes since he was a child. He has seen and heard a lot about killing people and seizing treasures. It might be too unreasonable to give the money after only looking at the jade pendant twice."

"It took more than two glances, it took a whole stick of incense." Lu Xi narrowed his eyes, "It's a pity that Xu Zixiu forgot the name of the pawn shop, otherwise we can find out the truth."

Xu Zixiu just heard these two sentences, and said, "Although I don't know the name, I still remember where the pawn shop is, and I can take you there." Seeing Lu Xun and Wu Xun looking at him together, he realized that he interrupted "I'm sorry to bother you, please both brothers..."

Before the words finished, Lu Xi stood up and said, "Can you take us there now?"

Xu Zixiu nodded quickly: "Of course." He also wanted to come out to exercise after reading for a long time, and it would be best if he could help.

The location of the pawn shop is not too far from where they live, and soon Xu Zixiu

Seeing the location of the pawn shop, he pointed it out to Lu Xun and Wu Xun who were traveling with him.

Lu Xi raised his eyebrows and sneered. Although this was not what he wanted to see, it was expected, because there were four big characters written on the plaque of the pawnshop - "Tongyuan Pawnshop".

Lu Yu and Wu Xun were surprised with vigilance, because they all remembered that Gao Hongyi, who had "coincided" with them many times, was the big boss of this pawnshop, but there was another person who reacted more than they did.

Xu Zixiu frowned and stared at the two people who came out of the pawn shop at this moment, gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and rushed out. Wu Xun quickly grabbed his collar by the back: "Where are you going?"

"Lin Feizhang and Ma Jiarui just came out of the pawn shop." Xu Zixiu said angrily, "I thought about it for a long time last night. One night when I was on my way, they drank me a lot. Lin Feizhang asked a lot about the situation at home. I have to find them Ask."

"Wait first." Lu Xi said in a deep voice, "Based on their minds and the city government, they may be accomplices but definitely not the mastermind. If you want to find out what happened, I have a plan."
