Chapter 126 Girl's Feelings
When Lu Yun returned to Congshanfang, it was already setting sun. As soon as he saw him, the neighbors greeted him warmly, with a hint of flattery in his tone.
Even if Lu Xin did not succeed in replacing Lu Jian, the clans would no longer avoid him as they did before. Because Lu Yun is already one of the four candidates in the clan to participate in the competition. In the next year, the worst of the ninth-rank official ratings will be third-rank official ratings, and Lu Jian can no longer suppress him!
Lu Yun was still very uncomfortable with this compliment of being tempted by the incest, but he could already keep a polite smile and respond politely to other people's greetings. Unlike when he was in Yuhang, he was out of place with the surroundings...
I don’t know if this is considered to be growing up or being sophisticated. But people always have to adapt to their current life, right?
As soon as he got home, he saw a gorgeous carriage parked in the yard, with Cui Jia's clan emblem embedded in the carriage. The guard of Cui Jia who was watching the car recognized Lu Yun and hurriedly saluted him and said, "Young Master Lu is back."
"Uh..." Lu Yun also remembered this person, who should be one of the guards escorting Mrs. Cui's mother and daughter to the north. But he couldn't remember what his name was, so he had to say a little embarrassedly: "Hello. Is Mrs. Cui coming?"
"My wife and lady come to visit Lingtang," the guard smiled, "and he is still talking behind him now."
Lu Yun nodded and had to go in to pay homage to Mrs. Cui.
Mrs. Cui was talking to Mrs. Lu in the back hall. When she saw Lu Yun coming in, she immediately smiled and said, "You guy is so successful. Your aunt dares to hide when she comes to her door. Do you think you should be punished?"
Lu Yun respectfully saluted Mrs. Cui, then knelt down and said, "I don't know that my aunt will come to the door today, otherwise I wouldn't dare to go out and run around."
"This is almost the same." Mrs. Cui looked up and down at Lu Yun with a eager face, and the back of her spine became cold. She smiled and said, "I heard that you won the championship in the Land Valve competition. My aunt came here to congratulate her."
"Just a competition in the valve is nothing." Lu Yun replied softly: "Maybe you will lose a lot next year, but it will make your aunt laugh at me."
"That won't." Mrs. Cui smiled and said, "Auntie has known for a long time that you are not a person in the pool and will definitely soar into the sky next year." After saying that, she said, "But it's really careless. My Cui family and the boys from the Pei family are all so powerful that they are outrageous... I heard that the children sent by the other families this time are also rare geniuses. Then there will be a fight between dragons and tigers."
Lu Yun nodded and agreed with Mrs. Cui's words. These days, Lu Wei repeatedly emphasized that this competition is definitely the most difficult time since the founding of the country. Each family has produced some extremely outstanding and elegant talents. In the previous competitions, it can undoubtedly win the championship.
It was like God deliberately arranged for these extremely powerful young people to be born together and compete in the same field.
Lu Yun patiently spoke with Mrs. Lu for a while before leaving, he said, "I won't disturb my aunt and mother's conversation."
"Go and go, Ning'er asked several times when will you be back?" Mrs. Cui nodded with a smile.
Lu Yun shivered and came out of the back hall.
As soon as he came out, he was patted on the back and heard Cui Ning'er's crisp voice saying, "Where have you gone?"
Lu Yun turned around helplessly and saw the Miss Cui and her sister standing side by side. Two beauties, like flowers and jade, were fascinated by the sunset.
"He finally had a day off, so of course he had to go out for some breath." Lu Ying looked at Lu Yun resentfully, but did not forget to explain for him.
"It's really easy to come..." Cui Ning'er pouted, took Lu Ying's arm, and smiled and said, "Luckily, my sister is at home."
Lu Yun nodded after hearing this, "Yes, you and my sister have fun, and I will lose my companion." After that, he wanted to leave quickly.
"Stop!" Seeing him looking away, Cui Ning'er stomped her feet in anger.
Lu Yun had no choice but to stop and look at her helplessly.
"Are you still angry about what happened last time? Haven't you apologized to you?" Cui Ning'er whispered, pulling Lu Yun's sleeve and said, "At most, I won't use you as a shield in the future."
Lu Yun was stunned for a moment before remembering and said, "You said Xie Tian that time, I didn't care anymore."
Cui Ning'er was furious by his unspicable attitude and sneered: "But some people care so much! You don't know yet. Xie Bo from Xie's family has already issued a letter of war to you through the Imperial Household!"
"Xie Bo?" Lu Yun quickly searched the name in his mind. He was not the four candidates for Xie Valve, but he did have some impression. Soon, he found the mark of this person from his memory, the 420th place on the Xuanxing List of the Jishifu.
He could not remember the name of the guard of Cui's clan, but he remembered clearly the thousands of names on the Xuanjie List. He even remembered the records of the Jishifu Office. He was 25 years old and the Xiejiao side. He had participated in the last ninth-rank official rating, and was rated as the fourth-rank middle-rank, and was awarded the eighth-rank Jingzhao Office to join the army. In an arrest five years ago, he captured a Xuanjie Powerful Man with one person's strength, so he was on the Xuanjie List and his official rank was also improved.
But after that, this person never took action, but was promoted to the sixth rank and the other party to work step by step. His ranking in the Imperial Affairs Office has also dropped again and again, and now he is only ranked 420th.
"You must have never heard of him," Cui Ning'er didn't bother to get angry with Lu Yun. Her little face warned him tensely: "But my elder brother said that this person's skills are far superior to that idiot Xie Tian. He is just not showing off and not showing off, so he will be ranked below him."
"Since he is so low-key, why should he stand out for Xie Tian?" Lu Ying said angrily.
"I'm afraid I've followed the orders of the clan." Cui Ning'er, a direct descendant, had a far greater understanding of the clan's internal clan than Lu Ying. She explained to the two seriously: "In the clan, everyone must obey the arrangements of the clan. Many powerful characters like him were asked not to show off to the limelight to hide their own strength, and they would be surprised when they were in trouble." After a pause, she said with concern again: "My elder brother said that Xie Bo's current skills are probably no longer inferior to him!"
"Uh..." Lu Yun hesitated for a moment and asked timidly: "Who is your elder brother? Is it very powerful?"
"What?" Cui Ning'er almost fell to the ground, her eyes widened, staring at Lu Yun like a country bumpkin and said, "You don't even know my eldest brother, Mr. Bai Yu?"
"Young Master Baiyu?" Lu Yun looked confused and thought to himself, why did he look like a bird's name?
"Young Master Bai Yu, I've heard of it." Lu Ying said excitedly, "I always heard from those sisters that there are four young masters in the capital, and Young Master Bai Yu Cui Bai Yu is the most handsome one among them!" As she said that, she looked at Lu Yun and shook her head again, not seeming to agree with this statement.
"Of course, my elder brother is much better than this guy who is not dry. What's more important is that he is a hundred times better than him. No, ten thousand times!" Cui Ning'er immediately echoed excitedly, but it sounded more like he was attacking Lu Yun.
Lu Yun naturally had no idea. He was just recalling the name on the Xuanjie List, but none of them were named Cui Baiyu. He couldn't help but think: "Cui Baiyu is already a master?"
"Although my elder brother is not on the list, that's because he never attacks people." Cui Ning'er seemed to see Lu Yun's thoughts and hurriedly explained: "But my grandfather said that he was only one layer of window paper to open the Ren and Du meridians!"
"Ah!" Lu Ying was shocked: "Is that the same thing with Xie Bo?"
"Yes." Cui Ning'er didn't care about showing off her brother at this time, and anxiously persuaded Lu Yun: "Hurry up and talk to the elders of the Lu Valve, let them talk to Xie Valve, and let Xie Bo withdraw his war letter!" He paused and said: "At least it will be delayed until next year. When you are over the competition, he will not dare to kill you!"
After Lu Yun participated in the competition, he would be awarded an official position immediately. Even if he only received the lowest rating of the upper and lower third ranks, he would be awarded a seventh rank official position. Xie Bo was also an official in the court, so he naturally had to be cautious about his actions...
"Thank you." Lu Yun nodded and sincerely expressed his gratitude to Cui Ning'er. This matter is indeed a bit troublesome. If Xie Bo is only at the right side of the earth level and wins it by himself, wouldn't he have no idea of his own roots?
