The Luguo Mansion is in the powerful and powerful Wu Benfang, the Hou family has been an official for several generations, this old mansion is also old, Sun Xiangfu knocked on the door to ask for a meeting, and was taken by the porter of the Hou Mansion to walk through it, quite a bit of the taste of visiting places of interest.

After a while, Sun Xiangfu was taken to the reception hall of Hou Junji's house, which was actually equipped with a warm pot.

"Xiaguan Sun Zhengming, meet Lu Guogong."

In the hall, Hou Junji, who had a beard, looked dignified, and at first glance he looked like a person who had been in the top position for a long time, and when he saw Sun Xiangfu saluting him, he raised his hand and said, "Sit down!" Your own people, no need to be polite. ”

After coming to the Tang Dynasty for so long, Sun Xiangfu naturally knows the meaning of the words 'own people', Hou Junji is the old department of the Qin Palace, and Sun Xiangfu is the retainer recommended to Li Shimin by Qin Qiong, who is also the old department of the Qin Palace, and they are all Li Shimin's descendants, of course, they are their own people.

Kneeling down opposite Hou Junji's case, Sun Xiangfu said straight to the point, "I don't know what Gong Lu has to ask the officials to come to?" ”

"I want to ask you a little favor, but it won't let you work in vain, you can take a look at this first."

Hou Junji pushed a document in front of Sun Xiangfu.

"The deed of Luoyang, a mansion with a length and width of sixty zhang? Lu Gong: What is this? ”

One zhang is calculated according to three meters, and the length and width of the house cover an area of more than 30,000 square meters, which is much larger than the three-entry mansion where Sun Xiangfu lives at present, and the price is not low in Luoyang City.

"The little girl has recently been obsessed with the drama of your drunken fairy building, she wants to worship you as a teacher to learn drama, this is the little girl's apprenticeship, this face, you won't give it to me!" Hou Junji said very casually.

My daughter wants to learn drama, and you take a mansion worth thousands of yuan as a teacher's gift, is this because I'm stupid?

"This, it's too precious, if Lu Gong's daughter wants to learn, the lower officials can take the time to teach or order the daughter to go to the humble house to learn, no need for any teacher etiquette, Lu Gong must not be polite to the lower officials." Sun Xiangfu seemed polite, but he actually postponed.

Hou Junji seemed to have expected that Sun Xiangfu would refuse, and said with a smile, "My father is not polite to you, part of this house is to be used as a workshop for the Luoyang Food Supervision Division, and it can be regarded as my father's worries for Your Majesty, in addition, my father's daughter, Shu Ya, is eight years old this year, and has already learned a little quyi, you can't teach her in ordinary ways, you have to teach her the best quyi, my father heard that His Majesty allowed you to teach the prince music, so let her study with the prince!" ”

All right! Learning quyi is nonsense, which means putting his daughter and the prince together, before Uncle De said that Hou Junji does not love money, it seems that it is not wrong at all, he loves power more, in order to ensure that the family's status does not decay, even the eight-year-old child will not be spared.

For such a person, of course, Sun Xiangfu does not have much good feelings, but he can't talk about hatred, Hou Junji is the most politician-like person in this era that Sun Xiangfu has ever seen, such a person has brains and very poisonous eyes, and he has long been optimistic that Li Shimin can succeed and bet on him.

And such a smart person, there is no problem with his ability, Sun Xiangfu read few history books, I don't know that he later became a secretary of the military department, a secretary of the school department, and he has served for many years, and he has done a good job.

He just knows that such a powerful person is something he can't offend now, and since he has tried to correct the three views of the crown prince Li Chengqian, arranging a little girl who is a childhood sweetheart by his side, so that he will not like men in the future, it is actually not bad!

Therefore, Sun Xiangfu put away the deed on the table and said, "Xiaguan will definitely not disappoint Duke Lu." ”

"Very good, my uncle and I are friends of life and death, if you have something in the future, you can go to the house to ask for help, and my father will do his best to help you."

Seeing that Sun Xiangfu accepted the deed, Hou Junji's majestic face finally showed a smile, and with a big hand, he saw a woman with a seven or eight-year-old girl coming, Sun Xiangfu glanced at the girl's pink and jade face, sure enough, no wonder Hou Junji was confident that Li Chengqian would like her.

"Come, Shuya, meet your teacher Sun Zhengming."

"He's Xu Xian." The little girl's big round eyes looked at Sun Xiangfu, and she said with a little excitement, obviously, she went to Wangjianglou to see the legend of the White Snake.

"Yes, I am Xu Xian, and you will be my disciple in the future." Sun Xiangfu looked at this cute and beautiful child and said with a smile.

"Then Bai Suzhen is my master?" Hou Shuya ran to the table and pulled Sun Xiangfu's sleeve and said.

"Uh, of course."

Sun Xiangfu touched his nose embarrassedly and said, feeling that he was happy in vain, the little girl was a fan of Yu Xiu'er.

"Great, Daddy, my daughter will go back to learn art with the teacher."

Hou Shuya fell into Hou Junji's arms and coquettishly, Hou Junji touched her head with a smile and said, "Okay, good, go and go, go today, Zhengming!" I also have two carts of wealth and brocade in the concierge, even if the little girl spends money on learning art from your side, usually food, clothing, housing and transportation, you can just watch and buy it for her, and I will order someone to send it in the future. ”

"Duke Lu is too polite, and he doesn't dare to be an official."

"My own people, I'll see you outside when you say this, I'll have dinner at the house tonight, and I'll arrange for a carriage and horse to send you back when I turn around."

A banquet was eaten until the sun set, Lu Guogong's carriage sent Sun Xiangfu back to Sun's mansion unimpeded, Sun Xiangfu, who seemed to be drunk, got off the carriage and his eyes became very clear, if the liquor of later generations can drink a few taels, it is no problem to drink two or three catties of Sanle pulp in this era, he now has more or less an actor's identity, and it is quite similar to playing drunk.

"Uncle De, arrange for Miss Hou to go to the courtyard of the third girl to be her companion!"

Hou Fu used to walk around with Qin Mansion a lot, and Uncle De naturally recognized this Miss Hou, and Hou Shuya didn't come alone, three teenage girls followed! Basically, you don't have to worry about the people of the Sun Mansion.

went back to his room, and under Yu Xiu'er's service, Sun Xiangfu took off naked, soaked in the bathtub and told her about the journey to the Luguo Mansion.

"What, my husband feels uncomfortable?"

"Uh, should I be happy?" Sun Xiangfu squinted his eyes and said.

"You should indeed be happy, now besides Your Majesty, there are more people who need you, that is to say, you, a kid born in a peasant family, have a bigger and bigger foundation." Yu Xiu'er helped Sun Xiangfu scrub his arm and said.

"Oh, yes! It is an honor for people born like us to be taken advantage of. Sun Xiangfu smiled a little bitterly and said.

"Husband shouldn't think so, in this world, who doesn't use each other, Lu Guogong is kind, many people who want to sacrifice their daughters to the palace, the means used are not exaggerated to describe as despicable and shameless, and the husband is used to seeing too much."

Yu Xiu'er sensed that something was wrong with Sun Xiangfu's mood and comforted.

Her words are not wrong at all, after so many years of war at the end of the Sui Dynasty, all the people in power now do not have much sense of security, just like when Sun Xiangfu was threatened by the seven sects and five surnames, he did not try to find a way to ask Qin Qiong's mansion, and finally took refuge in Li Shimin.

And not only a small citizen like him, but even the emperor Li Shimin is very insecure, otherwise, a smart person like him would not be ignorant of the harm of the feudal system, but instead made dozens of food estates, hundreds of households, and more than a thousand households for the Tang Dynasty, let alone marry a princess who was only a few years old to each prince in charge of military power.

Even the emperor is exchanging his daughter's marriage for a stable position in order to live a safer life for himself, not to mention a Duke of Luguo.

Hou Junji is so obvious that he has placed a woman next to Chu Jun, Li Shimin can't be unaware, perhaps, he will praise Hou Junji with a smile for his loyalty.

"Yes, the way of the world is like this, it's not their problem, it's not my problem, but I don't want our descendants to also use such means to continue the wealth."

Thinking about this, Sun Xiangfu sighed again.

These words were frightened, but Yu Xiu'er's hand holding the towel trembled, and she paused before saying, "Husband, you, you want to rebel?" ”

Hearing this, Sun Xiangfu was embarrassed and laughed, "How can I rebel as a lazy person?" However, if I said that I wanted to smash this evil old society so that everyone could live freely, would you not understand? ”

"Smashing the old society of all evils?"

Yu Xiu'er repeated the words that Sun Xiangfu said, and then shook her head in confusion and said, "The concubine really doesn't know how to speak!" ”

"Well, it's right if I don't understand, I'm lazy, that is, I just think about it in my heart, I'm afraid that it can't be achieved in this life, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, we shouldn't let us help them finish their hearts, no, we don't have children and grandchildren! Xiu'er, shouldn't we hurry up! ”

After that, Sun Xiangfu's hand stretched out of the bath bucket without Yu Xiu'er paying attention, and after a while, the sound of entering the water sounded in the room.

It is said that the drink is pleasant, and sure enough, Sun Xiangfu's body was soaked in hot water, and after the onset of alcohol, the desire was particularly high, so the whole room became wet.

The next day, Sun Xiangfu, who wanted to be released, was refreshed, and went to the East Palace with a carriage of musical instruments and Hou Shuya's little Lori, and Li Chengqian, who learned the news, almost greeted him at the gate in person.

The East Palace is very large, more than half of the imperial city, there are six rates stationed, and there are many auxiliary officials, although Li Chengqian is still a minor, but the East Palace already has the prototype of a small imperial court.

After all, Li Shimin had a will for the prince to learn music, but later Empress Changsun issued a decree to limit Li Chengqian to study music for at most one hour a day, and to study, it was more than one hour in the morning and evening, and the overall study time was reduced by almost half compared with before.

"Sun Zhengming, these musical instruments you made are so weird, I haven't seen them before." Li Chengqian carefully plucked the strings of a wooden guitar.

"Well, what everyone can do, let's learn what to do, and learn what others can't play to be interesting."

Sun Xiangfu said with a smile while installing the drum kit.

Hou Shuya, who was squatting aside to watch the excitement, found something abnormal, stood up and asked, "Teacher, didn't you come to teach the prince to learn music!" Why does the prince call you by your name? ”

"Uh······"

Not only Li Chengqian, Sun Xiangfu was also stunned by Hou Shuya's question, this is also to blame Sun Xiangfu's age is too embarrassing, he will be 17 years old after the New Year, and Li Shimin is 27 years old after the New Year, just Sun Xiangfu is ten years old, Li Chengqian is only eight years old now, Sun Xiangfu is more than eight years old Li Chengqian, count him as an elder! Not really. Let's count it as a junior! The age difference is eight or nine years old, which is also a bit inappropriate, so Li Chengqian used to call Sun Xiangfu by his name, but now he is pointed out by Hou Shuya, and in the future, this title will have to be redetermined.

"That, the music teacher is also a teacher, and the prince will also call me teacher in the future! lest others say that there is no manners. Sun Xiangfu thought about it for a while before saying.

"Sister Hou is reasonable, and I will meet Teacher Sun alone." Li Chengqian said, and pretended to give Sun Xiangfu a bending salute, quite an optimistic child! How can it be portrayed so extreme in film and television dramas!

Sun Xiangfu nodded and helped him up, which can be regarded as recognizing Li Chengqian, a student.
