Chapter 443: The Ambition of the Holy Maiden
In the study, Lu Yun brewed a pot of tea and brought it to Lu Xin to relieve wine.
When Lu Xin saw that the tea soup was bright and clear, it was very different from the thick tea soup I drink on weekdays. He picked it up and sniffed it gently, and felt the fragrance was swelling. He couldn't help but look excited and asked with a smile: "What is this how to drink it?"
"I learned from others, it is both simple and light. I have been drinking this way with my sister recently. My father tried it. Can you drink it?" Lu Yun asked with a smile. Since he had drunk Yunwu Tea twice at Miss Shang, he has fallen in love with this way of drinking. He was at home for no reason, so he tried all kinds of teas and finally found out that this unfermented tanned Liuzhou tea does not taste inferior to Miss Shang's Yunwu Tea.
Lu Xin tasted the tea soup, and when he first entered his throat, he was a little uncomfortable with the slightly bitter taste. But after drinking it, he felt that the fragrance in his throat was refreshing for a while and it was even more fresh and mellow. He couldn't help but feel refreshed and praised: "It really has a unique flavor."
"I guess my father will like this way of drinking." Lu Yun smiled and poured another cup of tea for Lu Xin. The father and son were drinking fragrant tea while talking casually in this winter night warm room, which was a rare peaceful time.
"Have you all the food you bought been distributed?" Lu Xin took a sip of tea and asked softly.
"I had already handed over to the Cui Valve the day before yesterday. As for the guard Valve, it will be today and tomorrow." Lu Yun replied.
"I really told you, but I didn't expect Cui Yan to accept our food." Lu Xin looked at Lu Yun in convincingly. At first, he didn't believe that Cui's family would continue to get involved with him. But it turned out that Lu Yun's judgment was correct.
"Xiahou Ba is too domineering and does not give face to Cui's family at all. Cui Yan is also a minister of the ministers. His disciples and former officials are everywhere. He will definitely feel very uncomfortable when he is treated like a slave." Lu Yun said lightly: "But if they accept these 500,000 stones of grain, it doesn't mean they will get closer to us. I think Cui Yan is still for the Xiahou family to see."
"But this is enough. It is a rift that arises. It is impossible to go back to the past." Lu Xin smiled and said, "There are 500,000 stones left. What are you going to deal with? I thought you would give it to your grandmother's house." The grandmother's house that Lu Xin mentioned was naturally not Mrs. Lu's mother's house Xiejia, but the plum house of Queen Qianming's mother.
"I can only give up my grandmother for the time being," Lu Yun whispered: "Now everyone thinks that our two families are hostile, but this is the most beneficial to us. How can this ace be easily shown? It must be played at the most critical moment." After a pause, he couldn't understand: "Actually, when he took out the two million guan, he didn't expect to buy so much food. He thought it would be good to have one.5 million shi, but he didn't expect that Miss Shang would give face like this..."
"Didn't she fall in love with you?" Lu Xin asked quipped.
"Puff..." Lu Yun almost squirted on Lu Xin with a mouthful of tea, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Father, this kind of joke is not good."
"I'm not kidding. I heard from your sister that the girl has been here several times, but it's all for you." Lu Xin said with a smile.
"That's all the past. Last time I went to buy food, I almost let Miss Shang eat it alive." Lu Yun sighed lightly. He really didn't understand what medicine was sold in Shang Luojia gourd?
"This is interesting." Lu Xin said more and more interested: "She is angry with you, but she also makes you take such a big advantage. I've read the article here so big. I'm afraid it's inappropriate if you don't figure it out, right?"
"Oh, I know there must be a problem, and it's the one who thrust Su Yingxiu." Lu Yun said with a bitter face: "But I've already alerted the snake before. If I want to find out the truth from that witch, it will be difficult to reach the sky."
"I hope she doesn't want to hurt you," Lu Xin's eyes flashed, and the tea on the table rippled slightly. "Otherwise I will destroy her!"
"Father is really different..." Lu Yun looked at Lu Xin with a smile.
"Haha..." Lu Xin smiled embarrassedly and said, "I have lost my compulsion, I have lost my compulsion."
The father and son looked at each other and turned their conversation elsewhere.
.
Shengpingfang and Cui Yingzhi's home are particularly busy today.
Because Cui Yingzhi, who had been an official abroad for many years, finally returned to his home in Luodu.
Although his purpose of returning to Beijing was to celebrate his birthday for Mrs. Cui's uncle Pei Qiu, and he was also marginalized in the family because of conflicts with his father over the years. But he was still the legitimate son of the clan, Pei Qiu's niece and son-in-law, and the relatives who visited him one after another, but he was exhausted from Mrs. Cui and Su Yingxiu, who pretended to be Cui Ning'er.
At this moment, Cui Yingzhi was still in the front hall with Cui Pingzhi. Cui Dingzhi helped his brothers drink and reminisce about the past. It seemed that they would not stop until midnight.
Mrs. Cui and Su Yingxiu finally rested, and they spoke seriously in Cui Ning'er's boudoir.
While she was talking, Su Yingxiu sneezed three times in a row. She rubbed her nose with some annoyance and said in a muffled voice: "Who is talking bad about me behind my back? Eighty times it's that boy again..."
"The saint can touch Mr. Lu in anything." Mrs. Cui couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Who will be fine except him?" Su Yingxiu curled her lips and turned back to the main topic: "Where did you say just now?"
"When Taiyi first went to Goryeo, then went south to Zhenbeiguan. After returning to Taiping City, he began to rectify the academic affairs with the left guardian..." Mrs. Cui reported softly: "According to the right guardian's guess, he was afraid that he had reached an agreement with my parents' family, and he might have made big moves soon. But the right guardian didn't know what the specific matter was."
"I don't even know?" Su Yingxiu looked shaking, and he gently twisted the ends of his hair, and said quietly: "It seems that the two people have the idea of usurping the throne." As she said that, she couldn't help but look worried and said, "Is it possible that my master is shut up and something goes wrong?"
"The Right Protector did not say anything, but said that the Dao Sect had not heard from him for a long time." Mrs. Cui knew the relationship between the Saint and Sun Yuanlang, and whispered: "The Saint is really worried. Why don't I accompany you back to Taiping City to see what they are going to do?"
"With my current strength, what's the use of seeing clearly?" The saint smiled self-deprecatingly and shook his head, "It's just a trap."
"That's right, if they really have any actions that are not conducive to the saint, it's safer to stay in Luo." Mrs. Cui said deeply.
"Yes, who is my master? It won't be so easy to be plotted." Su Yingxiu let out a light whisper, putting his worries behind his head, and gritting his teeth and said, "The most urgent thing is Luodu's business. As long as I can successfully advance to the heavenly level, all the problems will be solved!"
"Ah?" Mrs. Cui was stunned when she heard this. She only learned from Su Ying's cuffs why the saint had been wandering around Luodu and doing those inexplicable things? It turned out that the real purpose was to improve her strength and advance to the Grandmaster!
But is it that easy to advance to a grandmaster? The Saint had only barely advanced to the Earth level not long ago. Without ten or eight years of hard work, how could he reach the sky in one step?
