"My subordinates have seen Shangguan!"

Under the corridor of the study, Senior Brother Qiantian bowed to me very clearly.

For the matter of becoming my chief staff, the senior brother seems to be a little too deep into the drama, and I am no longer surprised by such a senior brother, let him go.

"Senior brother is early, can you have breakfast?"

"Used. ”

I set up a Go table directly at the entrance, and I sat cross-legged at the table, leaning slightly against the table, holding a chess game in one hand, and a black piece between my index and middle fingers in the other, thinking about where the chess piece would go.

After the senior brother Qiantian finished saluting, he slowly walked up the stairs, immediately entered the corridor, took off his boots in front of the door, stepped into the study, and sat down directly opposite me without seeing anything.

He first glanced at the chess game on the chess table, then looked at the chess book in my hand, shook his head helplessly, and said:

"If you want to crack the chess game, you don't have to use the 'endgame' to solve it, right?"

The endgame is an endgame because no one has been able to crack it yet.

It's rare for me to steal half a day's leisure, so I actually spent the morning here. When the senior brother said this, he was obviously laughing at me for having nothing to do.

I smiled and said:

"Don't you think that cracking the endgame can arouse people's competitive spirit?"

"Oh, what are you interested in again?"

Since there is a fight, then it is natural to ask for something.

But I suddenly sighed at this time, threw the sunspot back into the chess box with some decadence, put the chess game aside, and shook my head helplessly:

"That being said, what I want is not to be competitive, but to be humble and self-sustaining. ”

Even after grinding all morning, I still haven't been able to crack this chess game, and my emotions are still quite lost.

"That's what you want now. ”

Seeing this, the senior brother also smiled, knowing that I was deliberately honing my mind, but I actually used such an abrasive method, which was really laughable.

Many things in the world are not achieved overnight, just like trying to crack this chess game, it takes time and patience, so I will not rush this time.

"Speaking of which, I have a lot of thanks to Senior Brother for yesterday's incident. ”

I will keep in mind the kindness of others to me;

"Yesterday?"

The elder brother was sloppy with me at this time.

"Yesterday I took Wan'er to Fenglai Tower, and when I returned, I was given Jiuxiao Huanpei and Ke Tingdi, and the other party said that 'Mingqin has to meet a confidant, and a good flute is given to a good friend', I think about it, I am also a newcomer to Luoyang City, and I can regard me as a friend and give such a generous gift, and there is only Brother Qiantian. ”

Senior Brother Qiantian was not surprised at all that I would say this, but asked with some curiosity:

"Nine Heavens Ring?"

"Well, Wan'er gave it the name. ”

I was smug in my words.

"A good name indeed!"

When the senior brother heard this, he also appreciated it.

I poured a glass of the rice wine that had been warmed from the small red clay stove next to me, placed it in front of his desk, and pointed to a few delicate pastries next to it.

In this cold winter wax moon, there is nothing more pleasant than drinking warm rice wine while enjoying the snow and sitting with friends, chatting happily.

"Does that friend of yours have something to ask for?"

Now that I think about it, that person was also persuaded by the senior brother, so he was willing to give away these two treasures.

I asked this sentence very bluntly, and there is a good saying, if you are soft, you will never fall pie in the sky for no reason.

"Can't it be that the scholars hit each other off at first sight, and they show their sympathy with gifts?"

Senior brother, are you talking about our city's philistine?

"If I were just an ordinary scholar, I might still believe this kind of argument. ”

The more you are in a high position, the more careful you have to be with this kind of gift, because the more valuable the gift, the higher the demand.

When the senior brother saw that I had suddenly become so old-fashioned, and that I really looked like such an old and sophisticated person, I couldn't help but look at me differently.

"Now that you've come to this enlightenment......"

I hurriedly waved my hand and said:

"Eh, please excuse me if I don't want to do anything. ”

The senior brother's expression was stunned, and he suddenly laughed twice, and said:

"Is this your sincerity in reciprocating the favor? Why don't you say it?"

"If I don't mention it, I'll be upset. ”

"Say a word without opening your mouth, and you will be at ease?"

"Of course!"

The corners of my mouth rose slightly, and I continued:

"It's normal for you to send some small gifts to Shangguan as a subordinate to ask for care and express your heart, so senior brother is relieved, as Shangguan in the future, I will definitely promote senior brother more, with the talent of senior brother, the future will definitely be bright......"

As I spoke, I raised my glass and toasted Senior Brother Qiantian, which can be regarded as bringing my cheekiness to the extreme.

"Then the subordinate thanked Shangguan for his promotion. ”

"Hey, it's easy to say. ”

At this moment, the senior brother also had to marvel at my clever tongue, and he also raised his wine glass with emotion, and the two of them drank the glass of wine in their hands with their own thoughts.

After a set of very philistine rhetoric, I hurriedly raised my doubts again, and said bluntly:

"Senior brother, do you know that there are craftsmen in this Luoyang City who can repair the guqin?"

My intention was obvious, I wanted to find a skilled master to help restore the guqin.

The senior brother smiled bitterly, and said helplessly:

"Do you really treat me as Bai Xiaosheng?"

"Hey, Senior Brother is too modest, what is there in this Luoyang City that Senior Brother doesn't know?"

"I'm not a god, I really know everything?"

The senior brother seemed to be interested in the chess game as he spoke, and reached out and took out a sunspot from the chess box, as if thoughtful.

"To me, Senior Brother, you are the omniscient and omniscient immortal. ”

"It's useless to compliment me, if I really know everything, then the dark line of Xiaoyao Building will not be resold by you?"

Hey, didn't Senior Brother come to me to settle accounts?

I hurriedly accompanied the smiling face and said:

"Hey, what are you talking about, I'm making it worthwhile, so as not to ruin it. ”

"So it's worth a good piece of meteorite. ”

Look, there is really nothing in this Luoyang City that my senior brother doesn't know, as long as he wants to know, there is really nothing to hide from him, the 'Lord of Luoyang'.

"Senior brother, if you want that dark line, you should have told me earlier, Sister Ah spoke first, I naturally have to give Sister Ah No, after all, she is now the head of the family, the order of the head of the family cannot be violated, and I still remember the rules of the family. ”

Well, my reason is really unassailable.

Seeing that I was so clever and eloquent, the senior brother couldn't do it, so he said bluntly:

"Are you so afraid that the dark line will fall into my hands? ”

The intention was seen through by the senior brother, and I was not flustered, on the contrary, I replied to him very bluntly.

"It's not that I'm afraid, it's that I don't want to. ”

When the senior brother heard this, he laughed out loud.

"I'm quite defensive. ”

"This is also something that can't be helped, and now in this Luoyang City, the only person who can check and balance with you, Senior Brother, is Sister A. ”

Speaking of which, I haven't seen Sister for a few days.

"Can't you trust Senior Brother?"

The senior brother looked very expectant when he said this.

I was slightly stunned, and then replied:

"Ye Chen believes in Senior Brother. ”

After speaking, I poured wine for the elder brother, and the senior brother drank the glass of water and wine with a smile on his face.

"Since you want to restore this instrument, do you know the origin of this instrument?"

When the senior brother said this, he was willing to help me. Then again, as long as I ask for something, the senior brother will do his best to do it for me.

Wan'er said that the qin was very likely to come from the Lei clan in Shuzhong. ”

The Lei family in Shu, very good at chopping the qin, the world sighs: Lei Qin is exquisite, unparalleled in the world. Its reputation can be seen.

When the Taibai Lou martial arts conference was held, Wan'er had played the Lei's qin, which was one of the many guqins collected by the palace family, Lei's 'Spring Thunder' qin, the sound of this qin was thick and clear, and it was endlessly evocative.

As for how to distinguish Lei's qin, there are traces to follow, so Wan'er deduced that the system of this qin is from the same source as Lei's qin after identifying the 'Jiuxiao Huanpei', so it can be seen that this qin should also be made by Lei's qinist, but it is quite strange that the back of this qin is not engraved with the name of the qin and the name of the qinist.

"It was originally from the Lei clan, no wonder it can make such a clear sound. ”

The senior brother couldn't help but sigh with emotion about what happened last night.

"Since it is the Qin of the Lei Clan, should I seek the help of the people of the Lei Family to repair this qin?"

Although I don't know why the name of the qin and the name of the luthier are not engraved on the body of this qin, if you want to restore the lyre of Lei, it is not the safest thing to find its original owner.

"As far as I know, there are no people from the Lei clan in Luoyang City now, but ......?"

Senior brother's words turned so hard that it was unbearable.

I smiled and helped him pour his wine, and asked as I persuaded him to drink:

"But can anyone fix it?"

The senior brother saw my sincerity, and also understood that I would only show such a flattering expression when I asked for something, and said with a smile:

"This man may be able to fix it, but he is a mason. ”

Tile mason?!

Since he is recommended by the elder brother, he must have his own merits.

"Then I'll go to visit you in person another day, thank you, senior brother. ”

When the senior brother saw that I accepted his words without thinking, he showed a rather relieved expression.

"Anyway, you must already know about Gong Ming, right?"

It's really interesting that Senior Brother would mention Gong Ming to me at this time.

"If I'm not mistaken, Senior Brother, you were also in Fenglai Tower last night, and what Gong Ming did should be visible to you. ”

When the senior brother heard this, he sighed rather regretfully, and said:

"Gong Ming has been kicked out of the house by Mrs. Gong today. ”

Something to be expected.

Seeing that my face was calm, Senior Brother continued to ask:

"You don't seem to be worried about Gong Ming being removed from the family at all?"

Senior Brother naturally knew what my relationship with the Gong family was, and the sudden mention of Gong Ming was indeed deliberate.

"The old lady of the palace broke the ancestral family law in order to protect the children of the Gong Ming and other families, even if Gong Ming's behavior is too dissolute, as long as it does not touch the root of the family law, the old lady will not depose Gong Ming and remove him from the clan. ”

The corner of the elder brother's mouth was a meaningful smile.

"This is one of them, and the most important thing is that you open your mouth to plead with the old lady of the palace, otherwise the treatment of him will not be so light. ”

It seems that the senior brother also dislikes what Gong Ming did last night, which is indeed not what a child of a family should do.

"It's not light, they all used family law, and they were beaten and bloodied in front of the clansmen in the ancestral hall. ”

It does look a little miserable to say this, but if you want to come to the Gong family, you will still show mercy to your subordinates, and you won't really cripple people, after all, Gong Ming still has some influence on the Gong family. As for whether there was deliberate release of water during the torture, this should only be known to the people of the palace family.

"That's what he deserves. ”

Seeing that I was biased in favor of Gong Ming, the senior brother began to be a little angry when he looked at me.

Under the strict hierarchical etiquette of the prince of heaven and earth, Gong Ming, as a child of a family, disregarded etiquette, righteousness and shame to ask for a lowly prostitute as his wife, and was rejected in public, this is indeed a very serious problem, and if he is not careful, he will become the public enemy of the entire scholar class.

"Because he's a lowly Leji, can't he ask for a wife?"

I knowingly asked the senior brother this question.

"If Gong Ming is just a grass farmer or a mountain village man, that's okay?"

Status, high or low, is so important, no one can tolerate offense.

"Chen'er, since you know the rules and etiquette of this world, don't try to offend and provoke them. ”

Big brother, this is warning me.

Hearing this, I smiled and responded:

"My own existence is the greatest provocation to the rules and etiquette of this world. ”

The elder brother knows what I am talking about, and understands that I have a long-standing grudge against the injustice of this world, and because of this, he is worried that I will do something even more rebellious.

But my character, even if I didn't know it in the past, it should be clear now.

"So, you're not going back, are you?"

Why do you have to look back?!

I slowly put down the wine glass, only to feel that the seat was tired, so I stood up on the table and relaxed my muscles, walked to the door step by step, looked at the snow in the courtyard, the smile on my face was even stronger, and I had a very peculiar emotion in my heart, which I could not describe in words, I only felt full of joy, but I was fearless......

"Senior brother, do you know? I have also done what Gong Ming has done, and I have done what Gong Ming can't do, and the corresponding price I have to pay is that I can only be Gao Chen in this life, but even so I will never regret it, since I have no regrets, there is no need to turn back. ”

Because it is Gao Chen, Xiao Wan is my wife, and because it is Gao Chen, I can ascend to the phase below that person and fulfill our common prayers......
