Chapter 105: Constant Guests
Whether it is a demon or a human being, it is determined by heaven, whether it is a blessing or a curse, it all depends on good karma.
Jiang Yin Yipinhou had just left, and soon another person came here, this person was tall, good-looking, and looked young and promising, but there was a trace of stinginess between his eyebrows.
Lu Junhao was enjoying his breakfast time, not wanting to be disturbed by uninvited guests.
"Your Excellency, Liu Deen, a scholar of the Lower Cabinet University, has come to visit. ”
Seeing this, Lu Junhao had no choice but to get up and salute back: "University scholar, please come in." ”
Liu Deen didn't speak, he walked straight in, and when he saw Lu Junhao eating on the table, he was not polite, so he grabbed a peanut and put it in his mouth, "Lord Envoy, life is good, haha......"
Lu Junhao glanced at him with some disgust, got up and walked out the door, "Little second brother, please get a pair of chopsticks......
Liu Deen hurriedly interrupted: "Eh, I also need a wine jug and a wine bottle." ”
Lu Junhao didn't answer, turned around and sat down in the room, and said very politely: "The scholars are not only here to drink and eat, but also to get straight to the point." ”
"Hehe, it's not a big deal," Liu Deen said, waving his hands, but his little eyes were dripping in the room, as if he wanted to find something.
Seeing that he didn't finish speaking, Lu Junhao didn't say anything, and ate the side dishes by himself, as if this person's existence had nothing to do with him.
"My lord, why don't you see your subordinates?"
Regarding Liu Deen's sudden sentence, Lu Junhao glanced up at him a little lazily, and then said: "Scholar, you are only an envoy, not a prince, you don't need to keep vigil for me, right?"
Lu Junhao's cold words made Liu Deen embarrassed for a while, and he carefully remembered his grudge, but Lu Junhao didn't care.
Liu Deen finally fell silent, and Lu Junhao was also happy to be quiet. At this time, the little second brother came in, "Guest officer, the chopsticks you want." ”
Liu Deen saw that there were no wine jugs and wine bottles, so he made a fuss, "Didn't you see Lord Ben? ”
The little second brother glanced at Liu Deen, nodded and said, "My lord, I'm really sorry, the little one didn't hear it, the little one will go get it, please wait a moment." ”
Lu Junhao chuckled and shook his head, picked up his chopsticks and continued to eat his side dishes.
Liu Deen couldn't help but smile embarrassedly when he saw Lu Junhao ignoring him, "My lord, well, cough cough, that one is here this time, mainly to ask if the adult is a cultivator, well, is there any way to cultivate the Tao that can also be taught." ”
Liu Deen snorted haha.
Lu Junhao snorted lightly, "The scholar thinks too much, although he is from the Shanglai Kingdom below, but the matter of cultivating the Tao has nothing to do with the below, alas...... It's a pity that my blood, alas......"
Lu Junhao shook his head and sighed, as if he had missed something important.
Liu Deen was a little distrustful, looked around left and right, leaned forward, and whispered: "My lord, there are no outsiders here, but it doesn't hurt for my lord, besides, I am quite fond of cultivating things, and I hope that my lord will tell me one or two." ”
Lu Junhao looked at Liu Deen pretending to be respectful, and couldn't help but snort lightly, and said, "If the scholar doesn't believe it, there is no way to do it." ”
Lu Junhao shook his head as he spoke, sighing.
Seeing that there was no progress, Liu Deen couldn't help but be a little unhappy, and sat there in a dignified manner, still refusing to leave.
At this time, the little second brother appeared at the right time, presented the wine jug and wine bottle, and slowly retreated.
Seeing this, Liu Deen happily poured a glass of wine, got up and handed it to Lu Junhao, "My lord, come, please try our Daming's good wine poinsettia." ”
Lu Junhao didn't shirk either, took the wine bottle, covered his sleeves sideways, and took a sip into his throat, "Haha, good wine, good wine, this is the best wine I have ever drunk." ”
Lu Junhao said and turned around and arched his hand: "I have thanked the scholar in Xia, otherwise I would not have known that there is such a good wine." ”
When Lu Junhao said this, Liu Deen was a little thief-hearted, and said again: "Haven't you drunk poinsettia all the way?"
Lu Junhao shook his head and smiled: "It's not a secret, in the next way, where is there leisure to drink." Besides, Fengqi Mountain is full of supernatural spirits, and I am also worried about it below, so I am in a hurry and I can't enjoy it. ”
When Liu Deen heard this, he couldn't find any flaws, so he had to pick up the wine bottle and take a sip, put down the wine bottle heavily, got up and bowed his hand slightly: "Then I'm sorry to disturb today, say goodbye." ”
Listening to Liu Deen's unhappy timbre, Lu Junhao hooked the corners of his mouth, got up and said perfunctorily: "Won't the university scholar sit for a while?"
Liu Deen snorted lightly, flicked his sleeves and strode away.
Lu Junhao pretended not to go, "The university scholar walks slowly, I will not send it far." ”
After Lu Junhao finished speaking, he sat down and continued to eat, but the smell of wine just now was still there, and he was a little disgusted, "Come on, remove all this wine and wine bottles." ”
The man who had been hiding around the room quickly appeared, took the flask and the wine bottle and left.
Lu Junhao turned around and looked at the wine he had just emptied, narrowed his eyes, and disappeared with a little spell.
The mood was much better for a while, "Yan'er, I don't know when you can come." Alas......"
Lu Junhao muttered to himself for a moment, then turned his head to the door and said, "Contact Xiaojian and see where Yan'er is." ”
Soon a man in black appeared in the house and said, "Yes, my lord, I have been contacted, but I can't get in touch." ”
"Can't be contacted? What's going on? Xiaojian has an accident? No way, I didn't sense anyone in an accident. Lu Junhao seemed to be asking and thinking, and the man in black heard movement outside and quickly disappeared.
The sound of going upstairs made Lu Junhao a little irritable for a while, and he couldn't help muttering, "Who is visiting?" ”
Before the visitor arrived at the door, he had already said happily: "Hehe, Lord Envoy, Shang Youliang, the secretary of the Ministry of Lower Rites, is here to visit." ”
Lu Junhao squinted his eyes helplessly, quickly got up and opened his eyes, walked to the door, saw the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, and arched his hand: "Lord Shangshu is visiting, there is a long way to welcome, please come in." ”
Shang Youliang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was not polite, and walked to the house by himself with "please".
Lu Junhao shouted to the outside world: "Little second brother, please serve tea and take a pair of dishes and chopsticks." ”
Lu Junhao turned around and entered the house, and Shang Youliang was already sitting where Liu Deen was sitting just now.
Lu Junhao smiled slightly, he didn't get angry because of this, but he was in a good mood, and sat down casually, "How can Lord Shangshu have time to sit?
Shang Youliang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, raised his eyes and glanced at Lu Junhao, and said a little irritably: "Your Excellency, do you have to bring some will when you come down?"
Lu Junhao smiled slightly, which was an answer.
"I want to visit my lord, I want to understand the customs and customs of Shanglai, and it is also convenient for my lord to prepare a gift for returning to China. "Shang Youliang is an upright person, and he has sinned against many officials in the court, but he is a loyal person who does not attach to the trend of inflammation, and the emperor likes it very much, so he can be in the position of the secretary of the Ministry of Rites for several years.
Lu Junhao naturally knew that after all, it was this Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites who sent someone to receive him into the Forbidden City, and as soon as he saw this person, he knew that this person was an upright person, and Lu Junhao liked to deal with such people, without bad intentions, and was dedicated to the people and the truth.
Hearing that Shang Youliang finished speaking, Lu Junhao nodded and said, "Don't worry, my lord, let's chat while drinking tea, okay?"
As soon as Lu Junhao's words fell, the second brother served tea and chopsticks in a timely manner. After putting it away, he quietly retreated. He knew the Lord Shangshu in front of him, this person was amiable to the people, and he never looked down on his subordinates, but he was a good official, so the second brother was very respectful, and he withdrew without saying much.
"Lord Shangshu, please use tea, I don't like wine and meat, so I can only entertain Lord Shangshu like this, and I hope Lord Shangshu doesn't mind. Lu Junhao said and arched his hand.
Shang Youliang replied: "No, I don't like wine and meat, although wine and meat have passed through the intestines, and the Buddha stays in my heart, but after all, wine hurts the body and makes mistakes." Shang Youliang stopped as he spoke, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then got up to renew it for himself, and sat down before saying: "As an official of the imperial court," Shang Youliang arched his hand to the upper right, and continued: "You must be worthy of the emperor, and you must be worthy of the people, and you don't want to drink and miss the emperor's affairs and the people." ”
Lu Junhao laughed and arched his hand: "My lord is reasonable, the Ming Dynasty has such an official, and it is also a blessing for the Ming Dynasty." ”
Shang Youliang hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Eh, don't dare to be, don't dare to be." ”
Lu Junhao picked up the teacup with both hands, "My lord, I will toast you with tea instead of wine." ”
"Yes, please. ”
"Please. ”
The two talked happily with each other, and they hated each other.
It was getting dark, but the two of them were still talking in the house, not noticing that it was getting dark, and the noise outside was gradually becoming less, so they ate and drank all afternoon with the side dishes on the table.
"It's very pleasant to talk today, and I know a little bit about the customs and customs of your country, so it's better to go back and prepare to return the gift," Shang Youliang said and looked at the sky outside, lowered his head and sighed, "I'm really sorry to have bothered adults for so long, it's getting late, so I'll leave below." ”
Shang Youliang got up as he spoke, and Lu Junhao also hurriedly got up, "Lord Shangshu doesn't have to be so polite, you and I are familiar at first sight, we should be called friends, why be so polite." ”
Shang Youliang laughed and said, "Exactly, exactly." Raising his hand to hug but feeling inappropriate, he put down his hand, just lowered his head and was a little reluctant, and found that he had been hugged by someone.
"My lord, you and I have been friends in a foreign country since then, what about a hug?" Lu Junhao let go of Shang Youliang and said happily, not caring at all that his subordinates were still watching in the dark.
