As soon as the words fell, the four of them fell to the ground with white eyes.

Ma Kongming appeared behind the four of them and asked, "Jie Shuai, how do you deal with these people?" ”

Lu Yuan shook his head and said, "They just follow orders, don't worry about them." As he spoke, he stepped out of the alley with a slight regret in his heart.

Ma Kongming was too fast, he originally wanted to deal with these guys personally, but since he learned martial arts, he has not had much chance to show it now.

When they returned home, Su Liuying and Lu Yutong had just returned from the academy, Su Liuying was teaching Lu Yutong to paint in the courtyard, and when she saw Lu Yuan, Su Liuying smiled and said, "Why did you go back so early today?" ”

"I'll be back with you soon." Lu Yuan said with a smile.

Walking to the two of them, I saw that Su Liuying drew a courtyard landscape, Lu Yutong drew a secondary fishing picture, a little girl was fishing by the lake, and a man next to him was sleeping on the lawn, and it was the scene where they went out fishing that day.

Although the characters are not very similar, at least they can identify who is who, Lu Yuan touched her little head to show encouragement.

Seeing Lu Yuan go home, Su Liuying put down the paintbrush and prepared to go to the kitchen to cook, when the captain of the personal guard of Lu Yuan's back house came over and handed over a document and said: "Jie Shuai, the military sent by Qimen County." ”

Lu Yuan opened it and looked at it, his brows furrowed slightly.

The Tang army led by Li Hongyi has captured Tongling City in the north of Chizhou and is marching towards Chizhou City.

After several battles that took place during this time, Lu Yuan was not as unfamiliar and worried about the war as he was at the beginning.

Thinking of the previous battle between Ning ** and the Tang army in Tongling City, when Ning ** had more than 20,000 against more than 40,000 Tang troops, he had to defend it.

Although their own reinforcements also played a key role, it can be seen that defending the city does have a great advantage over besieging it.

According to the Qi ng report from Qin Quan, Chizhou City is stronger than Tongling City, and there are cloud crossbows sent by themselves, and now Ning ** has expanded to 50,000 people.

Although most of them are Gangla's recruits, but defending the city is not like a field battle, the recruits will not break and flee, and against the Tang army, which is also 50,000 people, Lu Yuan thinks that he should be able to defend it.

After thinking about it, he gave Qin Quan an order to wait and see.

In the evening, Sun Shaoqing and Qin Youyu both came over for dinner, although they had not moved to Jiedu Mansion yet, they always had to come over for dinner in the evening and then go back.

At the dinner table, Lu Yuan said, "Qing'er, do you know a person named Xu Qing?" ”

Sun Shaoqing was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "Uncle Xu Shi has a nephew, it seems to be called Xu Qing, why did Brother Yuan suddenly ask about him?" ”

Lu Yuan took a mouthful of food, chewed a few bites, and said lightly: "This person also participated in the imperial examination, cheated openly, and asked his subordinates to threaten me and ask me to help him frame a candidate." ”

There was a hint of reproach in the tone.

Sun Shaoqing heard Lu Yuan's reproach, lowered his head aggrievedly, and ate the food silently.

Qin Youyu smiled and said: "Lu Lang, Sister Sun and Xu Qing should not be familiar with each other, this person has done bad things, don't blame Sister Sun?" ”

"I know." Lu Yuan nodded slightly and said, "I just hope Qing'er will pay attention to it in the future." ”

After eating, Sun Shaoqing walked out of Jiedu Mansion with a sinking face, and after returning to the carriage, she asked the maid on the side: "Lan'er, let me ask you, is someone outside using my name to do nonsense?" ”

Lan'er lowered her head and said, "Well, this." ”

"Come on, I've already guessed a few points."

Lan'er said in a low voice: "There are very few people who dare to borrow Miss's name, but there are still many people who take advantage of the power of our Sun family, and you also know that the old man's temper is getting better and better now, and many people come to ask him to do things." ”

"What's going on with Xu Qing, I remember that my father didn't have a good impression of the Xu family, right?"

Lan'er nodded and said, "That's right, when Xu Qing came to our house, the master always didn't have a good face, but Xu Qing had a good relationship with the two young masters, and he had a good personal relationship with Steward Yang." ”

Sun Shaoqing was silent for a moment, and then said: "Resign Steward Yang, Deputy Steward Qian also resign, you go and look for a few honest housekeeper candidates, bring it to me another day, I will personally choose one." ”

Lan'er was dumbfounded, Steward Yang resigned and Qi Ng was forgivable, and the Steward of the Qian Mansion was too miserable, it could be said that it was a disaster for the pond fish, but she did not have a good relationship with the Deputy Butler Qian, so naturally she would not ask for Qi Ng.

Just thinking about it, Lan'er found that Miss was looking at her again, and she hurriedly said, "Miss, I didn't borrow your name to hang out outside, at most, I mentioned it twice when I quarreled with Yu'er's girl." ”

Speaking later, the voice was low and inaudible.

Sun Shaoqing shook his head and smiled: "Lan'er, you spoke for me in front of Brother Yuan back then, I have always kept this matter in my heart, even if you really did something wrong, I won't blame you." ”

Lan'er choked up and said, "Thank you, Miss!" ”

Sun Shaoqing said again: "Just now you said that there are very few people who dare to borrow my name, that is, there are, is it Sun Heng and Sun Chun?" ”

Sun Heng and Sun Chun are her two younger brothers, but the relationship between sisters and brothers is not very good.

Lan'er whispered, "Yes." ”

Sun Shaoqing thought for a while and said, "They have nothing to do all day long, sooner or later they will cause trouble for our family, I want to send them to Sister Qin's military camp, what do you think?" ”

Lan'er swallowed her saliva and said: "I think Miss should have done this a long time ago, the master actually does things in a measured manner, but the two young masters only know how to cause trouble!" ”

Sun Shaoqing nodded and said softly: "Then I'll tell my father when I go back, I've been a little negligent in this regard during this time, so it's no wonder that Brother Yuan is angry with me." ”

Lan'er snorted: "It's all to blame on that Xu Qing, he caused it!" ”

"He's just a primer, the problem is still with me." Sun Shaoqing shook her head and smiled, suddenly she noticed a delicate packaging box in the corner of the car, and frowned: "You received a gift?" ”

"Not really." Lan'er said with a smile: "This is the dim sum fruit sent by Chu Xiongtuo, saying that it was bought from a merchant from Chizhou, and I will give it to Miss to taste." ”

"He's got a heart." Sun Shaoqing sighed, took the box, opened it and tasted it, only to feel that his mouth was full of relish, and said with a smile: "Lan'er, you can taste it too." ”

……

In a private room in the Eight Immortals Building, Xu Qing didn't know that his threat had hurt his backer, he was talking happily with several friends of Jiang Huashan, in addition to their usual friends, there was also a strange man during the banquet.

The man's name was Deng Jia, and he was also a son of an official eunuch, and he had been stammering Jiang Huashan and a few people in the past few days, wanting to join their small group.

During the banquet, he continued to persuade him to drink, and he complimented everyone in his mouth, making everyone happy.

Seeing that everyone was almost drunk, he finally spoke: "Brother Jiang, I heard that you have the exam questions for this imperial examination, hehe, I wonder if you can reveal the questions of the third session to my brother?" ”

Jiang Huashan frowned and said: "Brother Deng, with our current relationship, I can make this matter clear to you, my brother does have exam questions, but I explained it when I bought the questions, and I can't disclose it to others, if Brother Deng wants to buy it, my brother can take you to the place where you buy the questions." ”

Deng Jia smiled: "Anyway, there are only a few of us here, and Brother Jiang told me that no one knows, so why bother with the person who sells the question." ”

Jiang Huashan said without a table: "The person who sold the question was my uncle. ”

Deng Jia was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Gaffe, please forgive Brother Jiang, brother buys it, and Brother Jiang leads the way." ”

Jiang Huashan nodded and said, "Okay." ”

At this moment, one of Xu Qing's subordinates entered the private room and said something in his ear, Xu Qing's face became extremely ugly, and the fat scholar asked, "Brother Xu, what's wrong?" ”

Xu Qing drank a glass of wine, slammed the wine glass on the ground, and said angrily: "It's not Mu Xuan's stinky boy, he took my money but didn't do anything, I asked people to teach him a lesson, but who knew that those rice buckets were knocked out before they could do anything." ”

The weak scholar was the most timid and cautious, frowning and saying, "Will he have any background or backing?" ”

Xu Qing said viciously: "Then I'll clean up his backers together." ”

Deng Jia smiled and said: "No, with Brother Xu's background, how many people in our Hui'an Mansion dare to offend Brother Xu?" ”

The weak scholar snorted secretly, he knew Xu Qing's roots better, and knew that he couldn't speak at all to the most important eldest lady of the Sun family.

This is also the reason why he didn't take Xu Qing seriously among the few people, he snorted: "Our Hui'an Mansion's catching speed is very powerful, Brother Xu had better be restrained." ”

Xu Qing said angrily: "What are you afraid of, now that Zhang Wande is a pusher, he is very greedy for money, and when the time comes, he will settle it with money." ”
