The gorgeous carriage gradually approached, and the surrounding team of people and horses were in unison, slowly marching in the direction of the Liu family.

Passers-by on the street turned sideways to get out of the way, and stood on the side of the street talking and whispering about the people in the carriage.

In a matter of time, the carriage traveled not far from Lu Wu.

"But Mrs. Gu returned from visiting relatives, and the eldest prince scholar Lu Wu is here to greet you. Lu Wu smiled and bowed slightly towards the carriage.

"Stop. A gentle voice came from inside the carriage, and the whole team stopped.

The curtain on the side of the carriage was gently lifted by the people inside, revealing a graceful face.

In the carriage sat a woman with a beautiful face, with willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes, a green silk coiled behind her head, her red lips slightly raised, and a gentle smile on her face, she looked less than thirty years old, and her eyes were moving.

This is the third lady of Liu Tai of the Liu family, Gu Zhilan.

Gu Zhilan's eyes drooped slightly, and when she saw Lu Wu bowing on the side, a slender hand was slightly raised from the car window, her lips opened slightly, and she said softly: "No courtesy." ”

When Lu Wu heard this, he straightened up and respectfully excused himself: "Mrs. Gu is tired of traveling, Lu Wu will not bother." ”

"Wait. A gentle and soft voice came from front of itself.

Lu Wu was slightly stunned and bowed: "What else is the matter, madam?"

Gu Zhilan looked at Lu Wu's figure with a soft face, and chuckled: "Did you make that Zhao Ming and Mrs. Qin suffer dumb losses? ”

Lu Wu's face was calm and he couldn't see the slightest emotion, so he only responded in a low voice: "Madame praised it falsely." ”

I was slightly surprised.

This incident happened during Mrs. Gu's departure, how did she know about it?

A smile suddenly appeared on Lu Wu's face, and he said lightly: "Madame is not in the family, but she can know these things, it is really her hands and eyes." ”

When Gu Zhilan heard this, her willow eyebrows raised slightly, covered her mouth and smiled: "It's just a rumor between people." ”

Lu Wu nodded lightly and said no more.

"Someone. Gu Zhilan turned her head and shouted softly, and someone around her immediately lowered her head and bowed her head.

Gu Zhilan stared at Lu Wu with a pair of beautiful eyes, and said with a smile on the corner of her mouth: "Take some of the rare things I brought back from the family and give them to Lu Wu, as a meeting gift for him." ”

Lu Wu was shocked, and he didn't know what this meant.

Earlier, he had also intersected with this Mrs. Gu, but he did not have the same treatment as he did today.

Gu Zhilan was suddenly so enthusiastic, which made her a little embarrassed.

But when he thought about it, he understood a little.

Eighty percent was because he had rectified Zhao Ming before, and he implicated Mrs. Qin one after another.

He sighed secretly.

It is expected that this is also an open and secret battle between the two ladies, so it is better not to get involved.

Lu Wu's face was embarrassed, and he shirked his hand and said: "Mrs. Gu's kindness Lu Wu has taken it, and those rare things should be brought back to the family and handed over to the master to dispose of." ”

When Gu Zhilan heard this, she suddenly looked displeased, and said softly: "It's some kind of fate to meet you today, and when I am in a good mood, I will reward you with something. Besides, my lord has never been interested in these objects, these are just rare things that I brought with me to relieve my fatigue. ”

Before the words fell, the guards on the side had already come over with a small box.

The guard walked up to Lu Wu and opened the box.

In an instant, Lu Wu only felt that his eyes were full of brilliance and treasure.

There were some bits and pieces of rare objects in the box, all of which were precious metals such as gold and silver jewelry, which reflected a rich treasure light under the daylight of the afternoon, which shocked Lu Wu.

Seeing Lu Wu's appearance, Gu Zhilan covered her mouth and chuckled, and her eyes flowed, with a unique charm, which permeated from the carriage.

After Lu Wu was distracted for a short time, he hurriedly took two steps back, bowed deeply and said, "I can't accept this, madam, please take it back." ”

"Oh?" The smile on Gu Zhilan's face slowly faded, her phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, looking at Lu Wu outside the carriage, and her tone suddenly became slightly cold: "Is this insisting on not giving me face?"

Hearing the displeasure in Gu Zhilan's voice, Lu Wu's face did not change, and he still bowed and said, "Please take it back, Madame." ”

The words are quite resolute and unyielding.

This kind of heavy gift, where is the reward, it is clearly some kind of bribery.

Lu Wu knew it, but he didn't tear his face, but unilaterally refused to accept this "reward".

Gu Zhilan's willow eyebrows furrowed slightly, her face revealed a little displeasure, she lowered the curtain, and a soft voice came out of the carriage: "You dare to accept the exercise cheats given to you by the eldest prince, and you will refuse the reward I give you, what is the reason?"

When Lu Wu heard this, his pupils shrank slightly.

These things are also known to Lu Wu himself and Liu Shuye himself, how did this Mrs. Gu know?

It's not soft enough, but it's heart-wrenching at the moment.

This Mrs. Gu is really a good means.

He became more and more vigilant about this Mrs. Gu in his heart.

Lu Wu's expression was calm, his voice was not shocked, and he said softly: "Lu Wu dare." But the so-called merit is not rewarded, and Lu Wu really deserves these rewards from his wife. ”

"What I gave you, you can take it. Mrs. Gu's soft voice came from the carriage, and she yawned lazily: "It's been a long journey, I'm really tired, Lu Wu, hurry up and accept those rewards, I'm going back to rest." ”

Lu Wu sighed and shook his head helplessly.

It seems that today, Gu Zhilan is determined to let herself accept these things.

He suddenly had a plan, and lowered his head and said, "These rewards from Madame are really too heavy, can Lu Wu choose a few of them, it will be regarded as receiving Madame's wishes." ”

There was silence in the carriage for a moment, and after a while, there was a soft response.

Lu Wu breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out his hand and flipped through the box, only to find that it was full of brilliant gold and silver jewelry, and secretly felt a headache.

"Huh?" he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a few black things at the bottom of the box, as if they were ordinary coins.

He tore through the layers of treasure and pulled out three round coins from the bottom.

The coin is dark and does not look like the usual currency in the town.

This coin is engraved with this mysterious symbol, revealing a little ancient atmosphere.

Lu Wu made a few eyes and made sure that this coin was just made of ordinary copper plates, so he put his mind at ease, put it in his sleeve, and arched his hand at the carriage: "Lu Wu has already picked three of these rewards, thank Mrs. for your favor!"

Gu Zhilan in the carriage heard that Lu Wu had picked some treasures, and she picked three of them, and she couldn't help but reveal a thick smile on her face.

She gently flicked the curtain, looked at the figure bowing to the side, a bright smile bloomed on her face, and said softly: "The days ahead are still long, if you need it, you can come to me." ”

When Lu Wu heard this, he responded in a low voice.

Gu Zhilan put down the curtain of the car with satisfaction, and ordered softly: "Let's go back." ”

Her gentle gaze fell on the young figure sleeping on one side of the carriage, and her eyes changed slightly, not just thinking about something.

A group of guards answered, the coachman whipped his whip, and the carriage slowly drove towards the Liu family.

As the convoy moved away, Gu Zhilan suddenly lifted the curtain and asked the guards on the side: "Then what did Lu Wu choose?"

The guard frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and replied, "It seems to be three rusty coins, which seem to have been turned out from the bottom of the box." ”

"En?" Gu Zhilan's face changed, and her willow eyebrows furrowed: "Isn't it some gold and silver jewelry?"

The guard shook his head.

Gu Zhilan's face was surprised, and she turned around and wondered, "Where did I get any rusty coins in that box?

The guard was also puzzled, thought for a while, and replied tentatively: "Maybe the old lady was in a hurry and accidentally got involved." ”

"Hmph!" Gu Zhilan's face turned cold, she snorted coldly, lowered the curtain, and stopped making a sound.

What a cunning boy.

She thought to herself.

But then, an inexplicable smile crossed the corner of her mouth.

"Oh, that's funny. ”

She smiled and sighed, looked back at the sleeping petite body beside her, and helped him pull the clothes covering his body, her eyes showing a deep warmth and love.

......

When Lu Wu walked to the family, it was almost noon.

He heard the commotion at the front door from a distance, and he couldn't help but shrink his neck and walk towards the side door.

He really didn't want to be caught by Mrs. Gu anymore.

Whatever her intentions, she really didn't want to get involved in the power struggle in the family.

That Zhao Ming is a lesson from the past.

Moreover, Zhao Ming is a monk who has stepped onto the top of the mountain, and he has ended up like this, he is just a small mud tire, and he doesn't know what he will be tossed into.

His face was full of bitterness, and he walked quickly towards Lan Xinju.

After a short time, he returned to Lanxinju.

As soon as he entered the door, he smelled a strong aroma of rice, and his stomach rumbled.

He immediately ran to the bedroom on the side to wash his hands, and came to the main hall, but saw that Liu Shuye and the others were already eating.

Liu Shuye saw Lu Wu come back and motioned for him to sit down and eat as well.

Lu Wu sat down from the side, picked up the dishes and chopsticks, and was about to start, but suddenly stopped moving, frowned and said, "Childe, Mrs. Gu is back, don't you go to greet you?"

Hearing this, Liu Shuye was surprised for a moment, and slowly sat up: "Why haven't I heard of it." ”

"Right at the door, I came in and saw it. Lu Wu said while eating.

Liu Shuye put down the dishes and chopsticks, pondered for a while, and finally shook his head and continued to pick up the dishes and chopsticks to eat.

When Lu Wu saw this, he didn't say much.

Everyone ate in silence, and only occasionally heard the sound of dishes and chopsticks colliding.

Lu Wu devoured it, he didn't eat much, he could burp a lot, and smiled wryly in the reproachful eyes of everyone.

He suddenly thought of something, and said to Liu Shuye: "Childe, on the way back, I met Mrs. Gu, and she had to reward me with some gold, silver and jewelry. ”

When Liu Shuye heard this, he put down the dishes and chopsticks, and frowned secretly.

He looked at Lu Wu's face and sighed slightly: "You accepted it?"

Lu Wu saw Liu Shuye's expression, shook his head, and said with a straight face: "A gentleman loves money, and he takes it in a good way." Naturally, I would not accept this reward for no reason, but Mrs. Gu insisted that I accept it, so I had to choose three coins from it before I got out. ”

As he spoke, he took out three coins from his sleeve and handed them to Liu Shuye.

Liu Shuye took the coin, frowned slightly, and carefully examined the coin, but did not find anything abnormal, so he breathed a sigh of relief and returned the coin to Lu Wu: "It's so ordinary, but it's also a mistake." Not bad. ”

When Lu Wu heard Liu Shuye's comment, the stone in his heart also let go.

"There is less than half a month to go, and you have been practicing martial arts in the family a lot recently, so don't go out casually. Liu Shuye commanded, his expression revealing a little concern.

Lu Wu responded with a smile, only to say that he also planned to practice hard in the family, so he resigned and left the main hall.

Willow is also right, his injuries have healed these days, and it is time to practice hard and prepare for the next clan competition.

Thinking of the clan in the near future, his eyes suddenly surged with a strong sense of battle and expectation.

This clan comparison, he Lu Wu, will definitely shine!
