Seeing Xi'er's appearance of not admitting his account, Cao Tong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although he knew that the old lady sent Xi'er to take care of himself, he wanted Xi'er to take care of himself.

But after experiencing Liang San's incident, Cao Tong no longer wanted to be deceived by people close to him.

"Xi'er, will the person who drove the car return to our courtyard in the future?"

Seeing that Cao Tong asked about this, Xi'er shook his head in embarrassment and said, "He is just temporarily acting as a guard for the young master."

However, if the young master wants to recruit him as a subordinate, he can go directly to the eighth master. ”

Cao Tong couldn't help but be a little moved when he heard this, but then he vetoed the idea.

After all, the Cao family must have put a lot of effort into cultivating an elite.

And as long as he keeps to himself, he shouldn't need such an elite.

Fortunately, when Cao Tong figured these things out, the carriage finally came to Lu Mansion.

"Lang Jun, according to the number of etiquette, this disciple is coming to the door for the first time, and the disciple himself needs to communicate with the concierge.

The items that need to be touched, I have prepared them for Lang Jun.

It's all treasures in the house, and it should be easy to get through."

Xi'er delivered a food box to Cao Tong as she spoke.

Cao Tong opened the food box and saw that in addition to all kinds of agate jadeite, there were also exquisite purses.

That's too arrogant, isn't it?

You must know that his small courtyard doesn't even have the money to buy charcoal.

"Xi'er, are these things in our yard?"

Lang Jun laughed...

These are all prepared by the master.

If it is only based on the little money in our yard, I am afraid that we will not be able to wait for the door in the short term. ”

Hehe, it seems that this time it was really bleeding.

"Xi'er, how much should each person give, is there a ration?"

Seeing that Cao Tong asked about this, Xi'er said with a smile: "The doors of each family are carefully selected.

Lang Jun, in addition to the purse, you also need to give one piece of agate jadeite.

After entering the house, there is no need to make a dot. ”

Cao Yan couldn't help but wonder when he heard this.

If that's the case, you don't need to prepare so much!

But just when Cao Tong was about to ask for an understanding, the disciples of the Lu Mansion had already come out.

The person who came was probably in his twenties, dressed brightly, and had a temperament, even if he was a literati, no one would doubt it.

Cao Tong naturally didn't dare to hold it up, and took out a meeting gift from the food box according to Xi'er's instructions.

But what he didn't expect was that the door only glanced at it slightly, but he refused to answer anything.

This made Cao Tong embarrassed.

Could it be that Lu Yijian specially instructed his own disciple to make things difficult for him?

Fortunately, when the disciple saw Cao Yan's displeasure, he explained with a smile: "I've seen Cao Yanei."

The villain Lu Sheng is one of the seven disciples of this Lu Mansion.

It's not that the villain doesn't accept the reward in the ya, but this gift has to be given together in front of everyone. ”

Cao Tong instantly understood the reason when he heard this.

He understands the principle that there is no shortage but unevenness.

Fortunately, this Lu Sheng in front of him has no bad intentions towards him.

If he really accepted his own meeting gift just now, he would meet the other six people in a while, and I am afraid that he would need to give him one more.

Thinking of this, Cao Tong couldn't help but admire the family style of the Lu Mansion.

It is said that this prime minister is a seven-grade official in front of the door.

The Lu family can cultivate a disciple to such a point, and it is no wonder that the Lu family can be full of vermilion.

"Brother Lu is worthy of being the person that his teacher likes, it was Cao who misunderstood Brother Lu before."

"Don't Cao Yanei call 'Brother Lu'!

If Cao Yanei doesn't dislike it, just call the villain by his name.

You are the master's protégé, and if others listen to what he said just now, the villain's errand will not be guaranteed. ”

Seeing Lu Sheng's resignation, Cao Tong also agreed, and followed Lu Sheng to the gatehouse of Lu Mansion.

To say that this Lu family is really meticulous!

Just a concierge who treats people and picks up guests, the decoration is even more elaborate than his small courtyard.

Cao Tong took a closer look after entering.

It didn't take long for Lu Sheng to come with the other six disciples.

Cao Tong and the other six had another greeting.

This time, Xi'er prepared those items for him and finally sent them out.

Originally, Cao Tong thought that the next step was to go to the study and wait for Lu Yijian.

But Lu Sheng just found an empty room at random to settle him, and left with the other six people.

At first, Cao Tong thought that he had committed some taboo before.

But as time passed, Cao Tong gradually understood the deep meaning.

If he guessed correctly, Lu Yijian was not called into the palace today.

And what happened in Cao Mansion, presumably Lu Yijian also knew everything.

He was already out of the limelight at the palace banquet, and today he ruthlessly pitted the Gao family.

As his master, how could Lu Yijian not beat himself well?

After thinking about this, Cao Yan emptied his mind and closed his eyes to recuperate.

It's noon.

Just when Cao Tong felt a little hungry in his belly, Lu Sheng finally appeared again with a food box.

Cao Tong knew that this was Lu Yijian sharpening his temperament, so he didn't ask when he would be able to see Lu Yijian.

Instead, he chatted with Lu Sheng for a few words and began to eat.

Until Lu Sheng packed up the dishes and chopsticks and left again, Cao Tong was still waiting quietly.

It's getting dark.

Cao Tong had been sitting for nearly a whole day.

Even if he knew why, he couldn't help but feel a little bored.

Fortunately, he has been copying calligraphy lately.

Reviewing the shortcomings of copying in my mind also passed some time.

Just when Cao Tong felt hungry again, the door was opened.

However, the person who came was not Lu Sheng, but Lu Yijian.

Seeing this, Cao Tong hurriedly got up and saluted, "The student greets the teacher." ”

"Well, do you know why I hung you in the porter?" Lu Yi said lightly.

"Students know..."

Seeing that Cao Tong didn't continue, Lu Yijian shook his head helplessly and said, "Yu'er, you are really smart!"

But the old man has been an official for decades, how can he count the smart people he has seen...

Some of them are talented and some are good at scheming, but none of them are among the six departments and nine secretaries.

Do you know why? ”

When Cao Tong heard this, he couldn't help but realize Lu Yijian's words.

But it's also a fine tasting, but the more frightening.

Lu Yijian seemed to know that he understood the meaning of his words, and continued: "Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind...

A genius who has not grown up is more vulnerable than a mediocre.

Yu'er, today you use the future of the Gao family to get the Cao family out of trouble.

Have you ever thought about the consequences? ”

Cao Tong saw that Lu Yijian had said everything to this point, and sighed helplessly and said, "Teacher, it's all the disciple's fault..."

"Well, it's rare that you've been able to do this.

But Yu'er, do you know who is giving advice to the Gao family! Lu Yi said simply.

"The disciple doesn't know..."

"Hey, it was Li Xianggong who instructed General Gao to go to Cao's house to make trouble.

You have not only offended the Gao family today, but even Li Xianggong has also offended! ”
