In the main room of King Xu's mansion, Li Xun was writhing strangely while scratching his whole body.

Itchy! It's so itchy!

I haven't been so itchy since I grew so big, and I scratched blood all over my body, but it didn't solve the problem at all.

Yesterday, Li Xun was teased by Lu Xiaoxian, and the more he thought about it after returning home, the more angry he became.

He quietly arranged for his subordinates to sneak into Zhang Meng's house late at night, planning to kidnap Lu Xiaoxian to humiliate him and vent his evil anger.

Not long after his subordinates left, Li Xun felt that his whole body began to itch. At the time, he didn't care. But then my body became more and more itchy, and then I realized that something was wrong.

At the third watch, the men sent to Zhang Meng's house returned in embarrassment, not only did not succeed but were also injured. Li Xun didn't expect that Lu Xiaoxian would be on guard. Although he was unwilling, he didn't care about retaliating anymore, he only cared about the tickles all over his body.

Li Xun's abnormal behavior alarmed the four old servants of the palace. They were well-informed, and after listening to Li Xun's story, they concluded that Lu Xiaoxian had done something.

The bell must be tied to the bell, and the one-legged old servant suggested that he should ask Lu Xiaoxian to solve it.

Li Xun resolutely disagreed for the sake of face, and later couldn't stand it anymore, so he acquiesced to the one-legged old servant's request.

At this moment, Li Xun saw Lu Xiaoxian enter the house, and he tried his best to maintain his due dignity, but his distorted face still betrayed him.

Looking at the itchy Li Xun, Lu Xiaoxian couldn't help but recall the situation in Wangyun Mountain, when he was tossed with itchy powder by the ghost who lacked virtue.

It seems that tickle powder is really a good thing.

At this moment, Lu Xiaoxian felt a little sympathetic to Li Xun.

Li Xun suddenly became an exile from the status of a royal family, and the huge contrast of identity made him extremely sensitive.

Back then, Lu Xiaoxian traveled from the afterlife to the present day, and the difference in reality and the fear of the future also made him panic and helpless.

From this point of view, Li Xun and Lu Xiaoxian are both fallen people at the end of the world.

Why bother to be embarrassed by the end of the world, Li Xun and Lu Xiaoxian have no grievances or hatred, Lu Xiaoxian just wants to teach him a lesson. Now that he has admitted it, Lu Xiaoxian no longer cares.

Soon, Lu Xiaoxian copied the itching procedure of roasting a live chicken called Hua Chicken, and Li Xun finally stopped the itch.

According to Li Xun's character, being humiliated like this would definitely be like thunder, who knew that he not only did not get angry, but also took the initiative to thank Lu Xiaoxian.

The ghost of lack of virtue once taught Lu Xiaoxian: It is extremely important to behave in the world, get along with people, and see through people's hearts in a moment. It is necessary to start from the other party's words and deeds, every move, not only with the eyes, but also with the heart to distinguish, only in this way will you not be deceived by illusions.

Lu Xiaoxian observed his words and looks, and understood in his heart that Li Xun's psychology had changed at the moment.

Sure enough, after Li Xun finished changing his clothes, he politely said to Lu Xiaoxian: "Master Lu, we don't know each other, I want to leave you for lunch, I don't know if I can appreciate my face?" ”

The sincerity on Li Xun's face made Lu Xiaoxian unable to refuse.

Soon, a table of dishes was put on the table, although it was not rich, but in the remote Kushui Village, it was really not easy.

What's even more rare is that Li Xun also moved out a jar of good wine that he had treasured for a long time.

After three rounds of drinking, Lu Xiaoxian asked the four remnants who were sitting with him: "A few old people, if I guess correctly, you must have been on the battlefield and rolled in the pile of dead people, right?" ”

Before, when Lu Xiaoxian first saw the four of them, he felt that there was a murderous aura on them. This kind of murderous aura is different from the kind of fighting spirit on the people of the rivers and lakes, but the kind of deep imprint that will be left after being tempered by life and death, blood and fire.

After listening to Lu Xiaoxian's question, the four of them showed a look of surprise on their faces.

The one-legged old man replied respectfully: "Master Lu has good eyesight, the four of us have been in the army, and we have indeed rolled in the pile of dead people, this was more than ten years ago." Now, we're all old.

Lu Xiaoxian asked carefully, and only then did he know where they came from.

The four of them were the soldiers of the Zhichong Mansion in Kuozhou, Longyou Dao, and they all belonged to the Tang Youwu Guard. They have been in the army for more than 20 years, and have participated in dozens of battles such as the Tang Dynasty's War to Annihilate the Western Turks, the Battle of Tuyuhun, the Battle of Dafeichuan, the Battle of Qinghai, and the Battle of Heyuan.

In the last bloody battle, all the brothers of the same brigade were killed, leaving only four of them alive, but also seriously wounded.

At that time, Li Sujie, the king of Xu, sent an edict to go out with the army, and felt that they were pitiful, so after the war, he accepted the four as domestic servants. The four of them thanked King Xu for his kindness, and since then they have tried their best to assist the Lord to repay his kindness, and they have not wavered for 18 years.

Later, Li Sujie was framed to death by Wu Zetian, and his eldest son Li Xun was exiled to Lingnan. The trees fell and scattered, and the slaves and maids in King Xu's palace went to their own places, but the four remnants were loyal and did not hesitate to follow Li Xun to Kushui Village, which was thousands of miles away.

After listening to the words of the one-legged old man, Lu Xiaoxian couldn't help but be in awe of them.

He got up and said to the four of them: "Four old men, you are the heroes of the country and the heroes of the Tang Dynasty, please accept my worship!" ”

The four remnants of the servants had been in the Xu Wangfu for many years, and later followed Li Xun, who had long been accustomed to this, but never asked about their backgrounds. Today, it is the first time I know that the four of them have such an experience.

Seeing that Lu Xiaoxian respected the four remnants so much, thinking about what he did on weekdays, Li Xun's face couldn't help but turn red.

Lu Xiaoxian was a guest of the palace, and his solemn actions made the four remnants a little flustered, and the four of them hurriedly got up and saluted Lu Xiaoxian in return.

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be!" The one-legged old servant's eyes were a little moist, "Master Lu has tormented us, please sit down!" ”

After sitting down again, the one-legged old servant looked at Lu Xiaoxian earnestly: "Master Lu, the old man can see that although you are young, you are a master. The old master has been framed and died, and the young master has been exiled here, the old man dares to ask Lu Gongzi to help my master come up with an idea, see how to turn evil into good fortune? ”

Listening to the words of the one-legged old servant, Lu Xiaoxian couldn't help but sigh: At such a point, the four remnants of the servants who are over the age of old are still working hard for the safety of their masters, and they are indeed loyal. Back then, King Xu Li Sujie may have taken in four remnants out of sympathy. Under Jiuquan, I am afraid that he will not know that it was his decision back then that benefited his heirs a lot.

Lu Xiaoxian glanced at Li Xun, and Li Xun lowered his head in shame again.

Lu Xiaoxian sighed and said to the one-legged old man: "According to the current situation of your master, I estimate ......."

Speaking of this, Lu Xiaoxian stopped.

"Estimate what?" The one-legged old servant asked eagerly.

The other three remnants were also looking forward to it.

"I guess his death is not far off!"

Lu Xiaogosi's words were not shocking, and the four remnants were stunned, as if they had been struck by lightning, and they were stunned on the spot.

Li Xun raised his head violently, his eyes were full of recklessness and dissatisfaction.

Looking at Li Xun's expression, Lu Xiaoxian snorted coldly, and his eyes became cold at the same time: "Don't be unconvinced, I'm not alarmist, with what you're doing so far, it's no different from looking for death!" ”

The one-legged old servant knew Li Xun's temperament, and was afraid that Li Xun would not be able to restrain himself, so he bumped into Lu Xiaoxian, and hurriedly said: "Master Lu, forgive me for being stupid, can you explain it more clearly?" ”

Lu Xiaoxian pointed at Li Xun and said unceremoniously: "As the saying goes, when people are under the eaves, they have to bow their heads. King Luling is the son of the saint, and as far as I know, after he was exiled to Fangzhou, he still kept a low profile and never dared to publicize it. And you? Acting arrogantly and domineeringly, speaking without choice of words, how can he be like an exile? Today's holy thunderbolt method, you must also know that there are thousands of descendants of the Li family, and she is not at ease, what is it that you are not seeking death by doing this? ”

Li Xian, the king of Luling, mentioned by Lu Xiaoxian, is the third son of today's Shengshang Wu Zetian, and he was the emperor in the first year of Hongdao. In the first year of Guangzhai, Li Xian was deposed as the king of Luling by Wu Zetian and exiled to Fangzhou. Li Xian's identity is much more noble than Li Xun, and after listening to Lu Xiaoxian's words, the faces of the four remnants changed.

Li Xun's lips moved, but he didn't say anything.

"King Xu has been stripped of his title, but Kushui Village has made a new Xu Wangfu, who is this king? Are you going to make yourself king? ”

Li Xun couldn't help but shudder, Lu Xiaoxian's words were poisonous enough, and if he established himself as the king, he would punish the nine clans.

In fact, Li Xun missed his previous days in the palace, and made a sign that wrote "Xu Wangfu" and hung it in front of the door, just to keep a memory, how could he think so much. But what Lu Xiaoxian said is not unreasonable, if someone really makes a fuss about this matter......

Li Xun didn't dare to think about it.

Li Xun's heart was empty, but Lu Xiaoxian didn't intend to let him go: "Also, I heard that you often lead the wanderers and the local natives to provoke and fight, but is there such a thing?" ”

What Lu Xiaoxian said was heard when he was chatting with Liu Lizheng.

Lingnan is a desolate place, and as more and more exiles grow, they will have to occupy the resources of the locals if they want to survive. Kushui Village is no exception, the contradiction between the displaced people and the natives is getting deeper and deeper, and Liu Lizheng often has a headache about this matter.

Li Xun stiffened his neck and defended: "They were the ones who started the incident first, if we swallow our anger, how will we live in the future?" ”

"If you don't die, you won't die!" Lu Xiaoxian looked at Li Xun with pity, like a dying lamb, "It's okay to fight with the natives, and it's okay for anyone else to take the lead, but you can't!" If you let the Holy Lord know that you Li Xun waved his arms, and everyone was willing to follow you, what would be the final result, think about it slowly......"

After listening to Lu Xiaoxian's words, the people at the table were silent, and their faces became extremely ugly.

Lu Xiaoxian stopped talking, took a bite of the dish, chewed it and swallowed it slowly. After chewing, I leisurely picked up a glass of wine and tasted it.

After a long time, the one-legged old servant came back to his senses first, and choked up with a look of shame: "It is all our fault that Lu Gongzi's words woke up the dreamer, and he didn't do his best to persuade the master on weekdays, and it almost made a big mistake." If this is the case, I will come to the Nine Springs in the future, how can I still have the face to see the old master! ”

Lu Xiaoxian glanced at Li Xun and did not speak.

"Dare to ask Mr. Lu!" The one-legged old servant cautiously asked, "If my master keeps a low profile and closes the door in the future, will there be a comeback in the future?" ”

Lu Xiaoxian frowned, he had too many words today.

The ghost of lack of virtue once warned Lu Xiaoxian that if he said too much, he would lose, especially in front of strangers, and he should be even more vigilant.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiaoxian smiled: "Your old man is an immortal when I am a god, how can I know everything?" ”

The one-legged old servant wanted to ask again, but Lu Xiaoxian preemptively said: "Thank you for your hospitality, Lu has said goodbye!" ”

After that, Lu Xiaoxian got up and hugged his fist at everyone, and walked away, leaving only a group of people to look at each other.

On the way back, Lu Xiaoxian thought back to what had just happened.

Li Xun was born in the royal family, both civil and military, it stands to reason that his life should be more gorgeous. But the world is unpredictable, because Wu Zetian is the emperor, his prominent identity has become a stumbling block.

What Lu Xiaoxian said was not nonsense, but thoughtful. As for whether Li Xun can listen to it, it's none of his business.

"Master Lu, please stay!" Lu Xiaoxian, who was pondering, suddenly heard someone calling him.

Lu Xiaoxian turned around and saw that the one-legged old servant was chasing after him in a hurry.

He didn't use crutches to help, he just jumped forward on one leg, the weight of his body hitting the ground and thumping.

When he got closer, the one-legged old servant handed over a burden and said to Lu Xiaoxian: "Master Lu, there are twenty taels of silver here, which is a little bit of my master's heart, please smile!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian raised his eyebrows, and was about to refuse, but he heard the one-legged old servant say again: "It stands to reason that my master should come in person, but you know that he is ...... for a while, so I came to thank Lu Gongzi on behalf of my master, please accept it!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian knew the character of a one-legged old servant, if he didn't accept it, he might have to kneel again.

"Then you're welcome!" Lu Xiaoxian took the burden and said with a slight smile, "No merit, if you asked just now, I'll say it!" ”

The one-legged old servant's eyes showed joy, waiting for Lu Xiaoxian's next step.

"If your master wants to make a comeback in the future, there are no more than three ways. First, he has made great achievements in the world, but now it is a prosperous age, and there is basically no chance in his situation. Second, the emperor granted amnesty. With your sensitive identity as a master, it is estimated that even if there is an amnesty, the Holy One will not let him go back. Third, the new emperor ascended the throne. If it is the descendants of the Li family who inherit the throne, there is a chance that your master will be recalled. The emperor is already seventy-six years old, and your master is not yet thirty, so he should be able to wait until that day! ”

Speaking of this, Lu Xiaoxian snorted coldly: "If he still doesn't know how to converge, it is estimated that there will be no chance!" ”

The one-legged old servant nodded frequently: "What Lu Gongzi said is that the old master is grateful to Lu Gongzi for his teaching!" ”
