Chapter 45: The Opponent (Revision)
Just as Xu Youzhen himself knows, he is old, people can't accept old age, after all, time is the sharpest arrow, and there are many talents in the DPRK and China, and the replacement is too fast. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
He can control it for ten years, he can control it for twenty years, he can control it for thirty years, but he can't control it for a lifetime, he offended too many people when he was in his prime, and when he was about to die, he would definitely not be able to spend his old age in peace.
So, he needs to train new minions to take his place.
Cao Jixiang is also over sixty years old, because the eunuch has no roots and disabilities, which causes psychological distortion, too much blood in his hands, more injustices, public anger is difficult to peace, and it is only a matter of time before he falls.
As for Huo Yanqing, the commander of Jinyi Weidu, he is indeed young, even a few years younger than Wang Yan, but he has a cold personality, is not sociable, and is difficult to speak alone.
Only Lu Lijiu is on par with him.
Wang Yan fought against him four years ago, and he didn't lose or win.
Wang Yan's methods are treacherous and brutal, Lu Lijiu looked at Wen Wensheng, but he was also bloodthirsty in his bones, from a humble family to a talented man, step by step to the Hanlin Academy, although he was unknown in the Hanlin Academy, he could make Xu Youzhen never give up his attention, this is the ability.
The opponent is an existence that makes people feel that they can be equal, and the only one who is regarded by Wang Yan as an opponent is Lu Lijiu.
Li Sheng seemed to suddenly remember something, "Does the overseer still remember that when the slave came back from Qingliang Temple that day, he said that he had seen the carriage of the Fu Guogong Mansion in Yangliu Hutong?"
"That place is where the master of the country lives Fu Jiahuan, it seems to have something to do with the Fu Guogong Mansion, a few days ago Fu Erye took the wife and daughter of the Fu Lord to the house, because the overseer rejected Fu Guogong's invitation, the slave did not pay too much attention, whether it is because of this is not very clear. ā
Li Sheng continued, "Meng Jiahong, the prince of Fuyuan, and his wife returned to Yingtian from Baoding in the morning. ā
"The master of the country. Wang Yan's brows were furrowed, and his eyes were deep, "Fu Jiahuan, Fu Yu took his wife and daughter to the Fu State Mansion." ā
He knew that Lu Lijiu had some friendship with Fu Guogong's Mansion, and he would go to give lectures to Fifth Young Master Fu on weekdays, but recently, he ...... It seems that Lu Lijiu has been to Fu Guogong's Mansion more often recently.
"Even Meng Jiahong is here. ā
Fu Qi's thoughts Wang Yan knew in his heart, but unfortunately there was only one Fu Mingxian, she was dead, even if she was no longer like her, so for Fu Qi's behavior, Wang Yan only had disgust.
For Fu Guogong's Mansion, he didn't suppress it, he could already be regarded as giving enough face, and he didn't want to participate in the dispute between the big house and the second room.
But now, Fu Yu approached Fu Jiahuan's wife and daughter, Fu Qi invited Meng Jiahong over, Lu Lijiu went there frequently, several things were connected together, which step went wrong.
Wang Yan pursed his lips, walked out of the dungeon while speaking, looked up at the sky, a touch of red sunset dyed the air red, like a flame of red, more like blood in the dark prison of the West Factory, although the winter sunset looks warm, but it is already cold and biting, "I'm afraid it's going to change." ā
"There will be changes in the DPRK tomorrow. Wang Yan pondered for a moment, and said in a firm tone, "If the Fu Guogong Mansion sends someone to send an invitation card again, just agree." ā
Li Sheng was a little surprised, and then nodded, "The slave only knows!"
ā¦ā¦
"Madam, why don't you eat first, my lord may have delayed something in the court. Laneige put the soft wool brocade cloak on Zhao Wanrong's shoulder, and said with some distress, "Your health is already not good, if you stay up like this and wait, I'm afraid it will be uncomfortable for a few days." ā
Zhao Wanrong was wearing a peach-colored Shu brocade red plum long jacket, with red plum and gold silk hollow beads on her sideburns, meandering and blooming until her sideburns, and even her complexion was a little ruddy.
She and Lu Lijiu have been married for five years, exactly five years.
Lu Lijiu except for occasionally going to Fu Guogong's Mansion to give lectures to the Fifth Young Master on weekdays, only the Hanlin Academy and the return to the mansion remained, and he always came back on time, thinking that it was really too late to shirk today.
Zhao Wanrong looked at the few dishes on the Nanmu table, such as Kung Pao chicken, roasted loin with melon, fried fresh mushrooms, cold bean sprouts, and the pea yellow, and shook his head with a smile, "No need, I'm not tired." ā
She was busy in the kitchen in the morning, although she was not in good health and could not cook by herself, but the dishes she watched from the sidelines were all Lu Lijiu's favorites, especially the steamed steaming pea yellow.
Zhao Wanrong touched the red plum and gold silk hollow beads on her sideburns, and smiled sweetly on her face, "Wait a little longer, you first remove these dishes and put them in the pot to heat them, and then bring them out when you come back for a long time." ā
In fact, Zhao Wanrong is also extremely beautiful, different from Fu Mingxian's dazzling, but she is not gentle and virtuous, but she has been sick for so many years, and the Zhao Guogong Mansion has suffered great changes, so she has no intention of dressing up.
Hongmei, Fu Mingxian used to like Hongmei the most, Zhao Wanrong is the concubine of Zhao Guogong's mansion, with pride in her bones, but after meeting Lu Lijiu, these prides are also scattered, even if she is learning from her, as long as she can make Lu Lijiu happy, Zhao Wanrong is also happy.
Lanzhi couldn't resist Zhao Wanrong, so he had to nod and agree, but when he was about to withdraw, he suddenly saw Lu Changjiu's figure outside the door.
"Madam, the master is back!"
Zhao Wanrong had surprise on her face, "Really?"
"That's great. Zhao Wanrong got up, and the soft wool brocade cloak on his shoulders fell to the ground, "Help me go over and take a look." ā
Lu Lijiu had already walked in head-on, picked up the cloak for her with a slight frown, and put it on her shoulder again, "I said that you don't have to wait for me." ā
Zhao Wanrong smiled, "I didn't mean it, I just did it, and you came back." ā
Lu Lijiu pulled Zhao Wanrong to sit down, and personally distributed vegetables to her bowl, but his expression was still indifferent, as if it was his responsibility to take good care of Zhao Wanrong, "Eat it while it's hot." ā
Zhao Wanrong asked softly, "Long, is there any happy event?
Lu Lijiu looked up and saw the red plum and gold silk hollow beads on Zhao Wanrong's sideburns, and said a little distractedly, "Do I look very happy?"
Zhao Wanrong nodded heavily, "I'm very happy." ā
Lu Lijiu has always been calm and doesn't care too much about everything, but since he came back from the door, the corners of his lips have been slightly raised, unless it is an important happy event, Lu Lijiu will not be so happy.
Lu Lijiu suddenly smiled, "It is indeed a happy event." ā
"Tomorrow I will go to the Ministry of War to serve as the left attendant of the Ministry of War. ā
The smile on Zhao Wanrong's face faded, and he asked a little stiffly, "Why is it so good, suddenly transferred to the military department?"
Lu Lijiu has been in the Hanlin Academy for so many years, except for four years ago...... That time he took the initiative to apply for a job, he no longer had no intention of being promoted, and Zhao Wanrong began to panic in his heart.
Lu Lijiu said as if unintentionally, "You are not suitable for red plums, or peonies are more suitable for you." ā
Zhao Wanrong's eyes were full of mist, but the corners of his mouth still had a smile, "Okay." ā
She actually ...... I don't even have the qualifications to learn from her.
