"Uncle Hai, please carry your father-in-law back!" Lu Xiaoxian let out a long sigh.

After watching Uncle Hai leave, Jiang Xiaotong smiled at Lu Xiaoxian: "Thank you!" ”

"Thank me for what?"

"What you just did, I know it in my heart!"

"Are you really thanking me?" Lu Xiaoxian asked with a smile.

Jiang Xiaotong nodded and said, "Of course it's sincere!" ”

"Okay, let me kiss it!" Lu Xiaoxian said with a hippie smile.

"Death!" Jiang Xiaotong saw that Lu Xiaoxian had no scruples in his mouth, and said with a red face.

Shadow was tidying up the house, listening to the two flirting and scolding, and couldn't help but snort.

Lu Xiaoxian glanced at Ying'er and said to Jiang Xiaotong: "Why don't you buy a few maidservants, this big family, Light and Shadow and Yin Feng Lingyue are too busy." ”

Shadow said angrily: "What kind of servant girl to buy, I can do it, you won't think about recruiting any fox spirits, right?" ”

Jiang Xiaotong couldn't cry or laugh: "Xiaoxian is for your good, why don't you appreciate it?" ”

"Why should I appreciate it?" Shadow pouted.

Lu Xiaoxian suddenly stood up and said behind Ying'er, "Father-in-law, why are you here again?" ”

The shadow was startled and hurriedly turned around, but when she saw someone behind her, she knew that she had fallen for Lu Xiaoxian.

She turned around angrily and pointed at Lu Xiaoxian: "You ......"

Lu Xiaoxian pointed to his nose and vividly imitated Jiang Yuqiao's voice: "This is our uncle from Fulong Island, why is it not big or small to speak?" Why don't you apologize to your uncle in a hurry? ”

Looking at Lu Xiaoxian's proud scoundrel appearance, Ying'er was so angry that her teeth itched, but she had no choice at all, stomped her feet and turned around and left in a huff.

……

"Gu'er!" Lu Xiaoxian beckoned to Yan Gu.

"Brother Xiaoxian!" Yan Gu sat beside Lu Xiaoxian obediently.

"Learning martial arts is very hard, are you afraid?" Lu Xiaoxian stroked Yan Gu's head and asked.

"Don't be afraid!"

"That's good!" Lu Xiaoxian admonished, "From tomorrow onwards, Uncle Jiang will be your master, learn from him." If you learn a good martial arts, you can not only avenge your family, but also become a chivalrous man respected by everyone. Don't be like Brother Xiaoxian, who has no ability at all, and is messing around all day long! ”

Yan Gu shook his head and said: "What Brother Xiaoxian said is not right, your ability is great, you are a person who does great things, Gu'er has learned martial arts, and will help you do great things in the future!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian smiled bitterly: "Gu'er, you are still young, and you don't understand some things, who told you that I am a person who does big things?" ”

"Sister Xiaotong, Uncle Jiang, and Uncle Hai, they all say that Brother Xiaoxian can do great things in the future!"

Lu Xiaoxian sighed and asked himself: Can he really do great things in the future?

……

Xuanyangfang, outside the Ya of Wannian County, Lu Xiaoxian was walking back and forth while looking inside.

"Why haven't you come out yet?" Lu Xiaoxian muttered softly.

Leaving from Jiang Xiaotong, Lu Xiaoxian came to find Ji Wen.

He was in a panic, but there was no one to tell him, so he had to come to Jiwen.

It had been half an hour since the person who had led the conversation had entered, but he had not yet seen Jiwen come out, which made him even more anxious.

Finally, Ji Wen hurriedly came out of the county office, and when he saw Lu Xiaoxian, he was out of breath and said, "Xiaoxian, you are in such a hurry to find me, is something wrong?" ”

Lu Xiaoxian sighed and said, "Nothing happened, but I was upset and wanted Brother Ji to go out for a walk with me!" ”

"Oh, I'm relieved if it's okay!" Ji Wen breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Still angry about the matter of Qian Zhuang?" ”

Lu Xiaoxian nodded.

"It's right to go out for a walk, Xiaoxian, where do you want to go?"

"What's the buzz out of town?" Lu Xiaoxian asked casually.

"Outside the city?" Ji Wen thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to Xinfeng Town!" ”

There is Xinfeng Town in the suburbs of Chang'an, there are many wine shops in the town, and there are many good wines, the world's name is called "Xinfeng Wine", also called "Chang'an Xinfeng Wine".

The name of Xinfeng originated in the Han Dynasty, and Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, was born in Fengli, and then raised an army, punished Qin and destroyed Xiang, and established the Han Dynasty. He honored his father as the Emperor. Emperor Taishang missed the scenery of his hometown in Chang'an City, and Liu Bang ordered the craftsman Hu Kuan to build this city in the shape of his hometown Fengli, which was called Xinfeng, which means the newly moved Fengxiang.

After the completion of Xinfeng, Taigong still wanted to drink the wine of his hometown, and Liu Bang moved the winemaker of his hometown to here, and since then Xinfeng wine has been famous all over the world, and there are many literati and ink writers.

As early as the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Emperor Liang Yuan once wrote the poem "Try Xinfeng wine, persuade balcony people from afar", and drank Xinfeng wine as if it was in the balcony fairyland.

Xinfeng Town is really lively, from Xinfeng all the way to the east gate of Chang'an City, there are stalls selling wine on both sides of the official road, these wine sellers are the villagers of the villages along the way, those who are in a hurry to drink at any time, pay more to drink more and pay less to drink, this way of drinking is called "Xiema Cup".

Since they came, Lu Xiaoxian and Ji Wen inevitably wanted to follow the customs, so the two of them found a stall casually, asked for a jar of loose wine, a few snacks, and sat on a stool to drink.

Finally, a smile bloomed on Lu Xiaoxian's face: "Brother Ji, this Xinfeng wine is really good, go!" Let's go back! ”

……

In a private room near Yonghe Building, Lu Xiaoxian was waiting for guests.

Wei Xianyun, who was dressed in a green shirt, arrived as promised, and the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then drank each other tacitly.

Once upon a time, Wei Xianyun was an unattainable god-like figure in Lu Xiaoxian's eyes.

Now, Lu Xiaoxian actually sat at the same table with Wei Xianyun, and it was so close, which made him a little excited.

Counting it, this is the third wine Lu Xiaoxian has drunk today, and it stands to reason that he should be a little drunk. However, his eyes were as clear as promised, and he could not be drunk, nor did he want to be drunk.

Inadvertently, the two of them had already drunk most of the jar of wine, but they didn't say a few words.

"Master Lu!" Wei Xianyun drank the wine in the cup, poured himself again, and said slowly, "Every time I see you, I will see a different side of you." I really want to know, is it because you are lucky that you can get to where you are today, or if you have already calculated it step by step? ”

Lu Xiaoxian smiled: "I don't know either!" ”

Wei Xianyun continued: "This time you have a dispute with Taifeng Qianzhuang, according to my estimate, you should not be able to hold on, but you just bet money to resolve the crisis...... It's not easy! ”

Lu Xiaoxian said: "Mr. Wei overestimated me, I didn't resolve the crisis, and the silver escorted was fake!" ”

Since he came to ask for help, Lu Xiaoxian planned to be open and honest. He knew that with Wei Xianyun's resourcefulness, this matter would definitely not be hidden from him, and it was better to tell the truth than to be exposed.

"What? Fake? Wei Xianyun was taken aback, and immediately understood, and looked at Lu Xiaoxian with some surprise: "You mean to say that only the box of silver you transported is real?" ”

"That's right!"

Wei Xianyun said with emotion: "What a trick to empty the city, even I have hidden it!" ”

"Let the gentleman see the smile!"

Wei Xianyun seemed to think of something again: "As far as I know, your money bank has been lending money for the past two days, and there is no sign of weakness, what's going on?" ”

"The county lord of Yuzhen and the county lord of Jincheng helped me raise some silver, but now they are just barely making ends meet."

"I see!" Wei Xianyun suddenly realized, he smiled and said to Lu Xiaoxian: "You gave me an accident again!" Tell me what's next? ”

Lu Xiaoxian said bluntly: "I am ready to introduce foreign aid to help me survive this catastrophe, and I invite Mr. to come today to discuss this matter!" ”

Wei Xianyun shook his head and refused: "It's not that I won't help you, I'll give you a bottom, Princess Taiping will never wade into this troubled water." ”

"I know!" Lu Xiaoxian smiled and said: "In the eyes of Her Royal Highness Princess Taiping, I am just a nobody, so I am not worthy of her helping me, just look at the jokes." I have no hope for Her Royal Highness the Princess, and there is someone else who is talking about strong reinforcements. ”

Lu Xiaoxian's words once again surprised Wei Xianyun, and he couldn't help asking, "Is there anyone else?" Who is it? ”

"The richest man in Chang'an, Wang Hu Feng!" Lu Xiaoxian said word by word.

"Wang Hufeng?" Wei Xianyun shook his head and said: "Wang Hufeng is a strong reinforcement, but he has always been wise to protect himself, he will not help you!" ”

"Of course Wang Hufeng won't help me, but if Mr. Wei comes forward, the result will be different!" Lu Xiaoxian smiled slightly, "As far as I know, Mr. Wei has a life-saving grace for Wang Hufeng, and he still owes you a favor." ”

"You know a lot!" Wei Xianyun's eyes flashed, "I hope you still remember our ten-year covenant!" ”

"Of course I remember!"

"Okay!" Wei Xianyun smiled and said, "I'll solve the rest!" ”

……

Princess Taiping looked at Wei Xianyun: "I know that Wang Hufeng owes you a favor, but why do you want to help him, can you give a reasonable explanation?" ”

Wei Xianyun said lightly: "The reason is very simple, because his words touched me!" ”

"Which word?"

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend!"

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend?" Princess Taiping muttered to herself, savoring the words.

"Your Highness should have the truth in this!" When he said this, Wei Xianyun inadvertently glanced at Princess Taiping.

Princess Taiping didn't speak, a strange look flashed across her face, and she instantly regained her composure.

She nodded slightly, and suddenly laughed: "The enemy of my enemy is a friend, that's right!" Sir, you did the right thing, and his words alone are worth helping! ”

……

The Penglai Hall north of the Zichen Hall and on the south bank of the Taiye Pond is the palace where Empress Wei lives.

The reason why Empress Wei chose to live in Penglai Hall is because Penglai has the meaning of longevity.

In the past two days, the palace maids and eunuchs of Penglai Hall trembled and acted extra carefully, for fear of accidentally annoying the queen's mother, and it would be bad luck.

Everyone knows that the queen is in a bad mood.

At this time, Empress Wei was sitting in front of the dresser, looking at the bronze mirror in front of her, and couldn't help but sigh.

It's really time to get old, she is not yet fifty years old, her sideburns already have gray hair, and somehow, Queen Wei inexplicably remembered when she was young.
