Chapter 101: Sleepless Nights
Upstairs in Furong, Shouwang Li Mao retracted his downward gaze, and the housekeeper Chen Bo pushed open the wooden door and walked in. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Back to the prince, those teenagers are all Xu Xiang's students!"
For Lecheng, a sister who doesn't know how many people are ranked, Li Mao naturally can't not know her, and the daughter of Neiwei Lao Jiu has also seen it a few times, but Xu Chen, a few teenagers, has seen it for the first time.
"How could Lecheng know them?" Li Mao looked puzzled.
"Presumably because of the other woman!" Chen Bo explained: "That woman is the daughter of a merchant in Dongshi, and she seems to know Miss Guo, so she became a friend of the princess, and as for Xu Xiang's students, it seems that they have something to do with this merchant......
After hearing this, Li Mao shook his head: "Although Xu Fan is a good help, this person doesn't even care about his son's future, and he only plans to be the prime minister for a while, and the previous temptations have no results......
"Forget it, leave him alone!"
"In addition, this Cui Chengfeng should be the person sent by the Cui family to negotiate with the prince......" Chen Bo continued: "These days, the prince's side has been cleaned badly, and we have lost a lot of manpower, and there is no one who can go deep into the prince's side at present, so I don't know if the Cui family has contacted the prince......"
"Even the Cui family can't help it......" Li Mao looked at the sky in the distance and muttered to herself.
On Xu Fan's mansion, the prime minister, who had been waiting for a long time, had a dark face, and Xu Chen smiled, looking embarrassed.
"Now that I'm a teacher, it's really not easy to see you!" Xu Fan sneered.
"How could it be......" Xu Chen smiled facelessly: "Today is an accident!
"Don't you know, the second daughter-in-law has run away from marriage!" Xu Chen sat down like a familiar acquaintance, and said with an exaggerated face: "Escape from marriage! I really didn't expect that the woman of the Tang Dynasty could be so heroic! I met it thanks to me, or who will the second child marry in two days?"
Xu Fan's face was expressionless, and he looked at Xu Chen coldly with a pair of eyes.
"By the way, teacher, you came to me today, is there anything wrong?" Xu Chen took a sip of tea, smiled and said: "After a day of tossing, I'm really tired, if there is nothing important, I will go back to sleep first, and Ming'er will go to court! After all, it is the first time, you must always have a good spirit, in case you accidentally doze off...... Uh, will you be dragged out and beheaded?"
Xu Fan finally couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, stretched out his right hand, grabbed the teacup on the table, looked at Xu Chen, looked at the teacup again, and after a long time, he slowly picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
Xu Chen didn't seem to notice the teacher's movements, and still looked at Xu Fan with an innocent face, curious as a baby.
Xu Fan put down the teacup slowly, met Xu Chen's gaze, and smiled: "Tomorrow is the first time I go to the court, and I haven't had time to teach you some rules before, so don't leave tonight......"
"Huh?" Xu Chen was stunned for a moment, and then twisted: "It's not convenient, right?"
Xu Fan squinted his eyes and looked slightly cold: "But even if you beat the Cui family, you will be afraid?"
"What are you kidding!" Xu Chen said with a righteous face: "I'm a civilized person, okay? I will do anything to beat people? It's the hand of the stone! This kid has been crazy in size recently, and he can't use all the strength in his body, so he is ......probably idle."
"Teacher, don't worry! I have already punished him for moving 500 pounds of bricks every day until the thatched house in the backyard is built, there are too many people in the family, and going to the toilet is a big problem!"
"......" Xu Fan looked at him and was speechless for a long time.
"You've made up your mind not to get involved, have you?"
Xu Chen in the gag smiled bitterly: "A group of immortals are fighting, I'm a mortal like a little ghost, so don't get involved, right?"
"But you're already in the game!" Xu Fan said coldly.
"That's right!" Xu Chen nodded, "So I'm going to start sleeping tomorrow as soon as I go to court!"
"You really won't be dragged out and beheaded when you sleep, right?" Xu Chen looked up at the teacher with a look of anticipation.
Xu Fan shook his head and sighed lightly: "Go, Uncle Xu will teach you the etiquette of going to court tomorrow, and the court clothes are also prepared for you......"
"Okay!" Xu Chen bowed and retreated.
Xu Fan looked at the back of the big apprentice leaving, and smiled: "It's really slippery!"
In fact, Xu Fan obviously didn't get to the point where he needed Xu Chen to charge for him, but he was just ...... There is always an invisible gap between him and Xu Chen!
Xu Fan wanted to find out who or what it was many times, which made Xu Chen unwilling to be honest with himself.
As an elder, I want to know everything about the younger generation, whether it is care or control, Xu Fan has ardent expectations for Xu Chen, an excellent disciple.
From the current point of view, Xu Chen has received much more from the teacher than he has paid, and it can even be said that Xu Fan has not asked for anything from Xu Chen except for the desire to understand.
This excellent scholar adheres to the tradition of being a teacher, and does not have the harshness and stubbornness of ordinary teachers, and the mind of the prime minister is used by him to treat his students well.
In general, this is an excellent and competent teacher, and if you count his status as prime minister, he is simply the most perfect teacher in this era!
But......
"Why is there such a disgusting existence for a cultivator?" Xu Chen gritted his teeth more than once.
Since that day in the Huangcheng Temple, when the old monk Huoneng waved his hand lightly, and a cloud of white light wrapped a pitch-black insect floating out of his body, all Xu Chen's yearning for a better life was completely shattered.
Coming to such an era inexplicably, I originally thought that I could be like a fish in water with my understanding of history, and there was no big revenge to change the world anyway.
Even if the "Anshi Rebellion", which is known as the turning point in the history of the entire Chinese nation, is close at hand, Xu Chen can't give birth to a sense of national mission. Anyway, those two guys didn't come to the south, either to Guangzhou or Sichuan, in short, Xu Chen has a way to make himself happy and happy.
There are ways to make money, it's a big deal to throw a few poems out, be held by people as talents, always worry about eating and drinking, and there will be no shortage of beauties.
Who knew that from the beginning, he had been targeted!
And it's also a bunch of perverted "cultivators"!
At first, Xu Chen thought he had come to the world of mythology......
To this day, I still can't tell whether there is a connection between the era and the world before me, and why the moon in the sky is so white.
Being forced by others, everything has to be done, and I can't help myself.
For example, if you don't tell your teacher your secrets, you want to take them alone and don't want to implicate others......
Such a noble statement, if others had to think so, Xu Chen would naturally not refute it, but only he knew how disgusting and fucked up this statement was!
Anyway, Xu Chen has never been a noble person.
The reason why he didn't say anything was just because Xu Chen knew very well that even if he did, it would not help, but might make things worse!
Fortunately, I am not lonely on the road, no matter where I can go at that time, there will always be these brothers by my side.
"Damn, I really want to go up and get two pits out, it's too much of an eyesore!" Xu Chen put back his evil gaze at the moon, turned around and asked Chai Lao, who had been waiting for a long time: "How is it?"
"It's confirmed!" Chai Lao nodded and said: "The Cui family only came to the Grandmaster Realm, and the old slave didn't spend much effort to get the jade pendant from Cui Chengfeng, both the material and the patterns on it are the same as the two pieces that Gongzi already has!"
"That's very interesting!" Xu Chen sat down, his fingers habitually tapping on the table, and muttered, "So this kid is pretending to be stupid and deliberately leading us to the bait...... Or are we really lucky, and we can drop treasures from the sky when we go out casually?"
"That'...... Do you want to do it?" asked Chai Lao.
Xu Chen thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "Forget it, I don't know if it's true or not, I have to check it and then talk about it...... Don't startle the snake just yet!"
Okay!" Chai Lao immediately left the Prime Minister's Mansion without alarming anyone.
At the same time, in a courtyard in a square in Chang'an, Wan Ping was reporting the same thing to his son-in-law.
"You don't have to think about it to know ......" Wan Shijun shook his head and smiled: "Our eldest prince Xu will definitely not take things back like this!"
"That'...... Why don't we help him?" Wan Ping laughed too.
"Forget it, it's not time!" Wan Shijun actually thought about it seriously for a moment, and still shook his head and said: "Things can only play a role when they are ready, don't put too much pressure on him now, otherwise it will get out of control!"
Wan Ping nodded and continued: "According to the previous information, the fourth piece should be in the hands of the head of the Lu family, and the reason why the two brothers of Lu Zongbao became interested in that piece is probably because they saw a similar ...... in the head of the Lu family."
"What about the last piece?" Wan Shijun frowned and asked, "After so many years, there is still no news?"
Wan Ping shook his head and said dejectedly: "Everyone has not been idle for so many years, and the heads of the previous generation and the previous generation have never given up searching, but there is still no news......
"It's different!" Wan Shijun said hurriedly: "Dad and Grandpa don't have any hope for this, which one of the people they met at that time could be like Xu Chen?"
"This time is the most likely chance to unlock this secret!" Wan Shijun looked resolute: "I will never give up!"
Wan Shijun was already proud, when he didn't know about his own situation, he couldn't help but fight back against the provocation of the seven sects and five surnames, and now that he knows his family's long history, how can he not be curious about this secret that has been passed down for thousands of years and has accompanied the entire family history?
Without hope, Wan Shijun is afraid that he will try his best, but now that he sees hope, how can he give up?
"At all costs, we must get the last piece of jade pendant back!" Wan Shijun said solemnly: "Even if you use those chess pieces planted in various domains, you will not hesitate!"
"Okay......" Wan Ping understood the determination of the head of the family, so he had to nod, and then spread the news one by one according to the specific channels.
