Chapter 50
Heavenly City, the outermost part of the imperial capital of the inner city, in Lu Fan's mansion, a figure in the garden is practicing swords, two maids are on the side, one is playing the piano, and the other is boiling water and making tea on the side.
Since that day, Lu Fan sent away the county lord who had changed his clothes in the mansion, and it has been three days, and his own young master has to practice swords every day, and he has never left the mansion, while making tea, Chunyun looked at Lu Fan who was dancing the sword and thought of it.
The figure floats, the sword in his hand goes up and down, there is no order, it seems to be weak and weak, but it is soft and strong, like a poet dancing the sword, coming at will, but without a trace of true qi, take a closer look at the sword in his hand is not a sword, but a bamboo sword.
Seeing that there is no reality, fast and slow, the steps are zero but not chaotic, the swordsmanship is plain, there is no earth-shattering might, there is no prosperous sword momentum, some just follow the trend, whether it is rigid or soft...
Lu Fan did not practice swords in the real sense, but practiced his state of mind, dancing with his heart, like an ordinary person who didn't understand anything, pure sword dancing, Lu Fan knew that his state of mind had made a qualitative leap, but the violence in his true qi was never completely expelled, but became more and more condensed, and merged with his true qi.
Although the violentness was not expelled, it was suppressed. The more condensed the true qi, the more stable the realm.
Lu Fan looked at the feathered wolf standing by the pond and looked at the fish in the water.
Lu Fan knew that the feathered wolf was thinking about how to get the fish out of the ice again.
Lu Fan slowly put away the bamboo sword, his body shook, and appeared behind the feather wolf, the aware feather wolf turned around and looked at Lu Fan behind him, and then turned his head and continued to look at the pond, Lu Fan suddenly kicked the unsuspecting feather wolf into the pond ice, the feather wolf was on the smooth ice, the tips of its claws were deeply buckled on the ice and did not dare to move, and he bared his teeth towards Lu Fan, and expressed his dissatisfaction with the sound of 'wooing' in his throat.
Lu Fan didn't look at it, with a wave of the bamboo sword in his hand, a condensed sword light mixed with strength shot towards the feathered wolf, and the feathered wolf jumped away from it, but it slid farther on the ice until it reached the center of the pond.
The sword qi that left the body would cut a one-meter-long crack on the ice surface, and the accompanying sword gang blasted out a half-meter-long ice hole on the ice surface near the crack, and the fish in the water all went to the ice cave to breathe for a while.
The feathered wolf saw the fish jumping out of the water on the ice hole, and regardless of whether the ice was slippery, he jumped on the ice and slid directly to the ice hole to take the fish.
Lu Fan looked at the bamboo sword in his hand, and saw that it was split from the middle, and the bamboo sword could not withstand Lu Fan's thick true qi bursting, when the true qi could be as soft as water, then the bamboo sword could withstand the bamboo sword.
With a flip of his hand, he threw out the bamboo sword, and the bamboo sword mixed with true qi shot into the big bluestone placed on the edge of the bamboo forest.
Look carefully, it turns out that the bluestone has been covered with holes, and there is a bamboo sword embedded in each hole, and the hilt of the sword has not entered the stone, and now there is another hole.
Lu Fan walked to the coffee table where the tea was boiling, sat down and tasted the freshly brewed tea, and Qiu Tan also put away the piano and came to the stove to warm up.
Lu Fan took a sip of hot tea, enjoyed the warm sunshine, found a comfortable position to lie on the rattan chair, watched the long ice pick melt snow under the eaves, and 'tick tick' along the ice pick... kept hitting the green bricks under the eaves.
Recalling that a month ago, at the sacrifice ceremony personally presided over by the emperor of the empire, Lu Fan saw Hua Kun, who had not been seen for a long time, and the two of them.
Today's warriors are wearing the majestic golden armor of the forbidden army, and they are already the deputy captain of the Jin Wuwei team, and the commander of the forbidden army loves him and intends to promote him.
However, the war army still hoped to go to the northwest to protect the frontier, and the emperor was very pleased when he heard about it: "If this is the case, why worry about the barbarians on the frontier." ”
As for Hua Kun, who is already under the tent of Wuhou, he is beginning to show his strength, and it is also a rumor. Lu Fan asked, why did you choose Wuhou. Hua Kun said that it was easier for Wu Hou to listen to the advice of his staff than Wen Hou.
Many people who came to the imperial capital together have been appointed, and even many powerless scribes have been obtained in the imperial capital, and it seems that only Lu Fan has not landed a position that he relies on.
In some, people from Cloud City Academy who were not familiar with it told many things that they didn't know at that festival, and they were also things that Zhan Jun and Hua Kun didn't say.
It turned out that although the county lord Wei Ruozhang's mother was the younger sister of the emperor, the county lord's father, Wei Tianqing, was a general loyal to the empire and dedicated his life to the stability of the empire, but he was not good at playing politics.
When the emperor was competing for the throne, this loyal imperial minister chose neutrality, no one supported him, and Chongzuo succeeded the emperor in order to stabilize the throne, not only did not care about the past, but relied more on Wei Tianqing, and changed the position and the minister.
But later, after the emperor's throne was stabilized, but after the death of the county lord's mother, the emperor was extremely jealous of Wei Tianqing, and suppressed Wei Tianqing everywhere, even if he was idle in the imperial capital, the emperor was also wary of him everywhere.
The hundred-legged insect dies but does not stiffen.
The student of the academy told him that it was better to keep a certain distance from the county lord, otherwise he would be burned, this important news, he should have told his best brother, but he never thought that it was told by someone with ordinary relationships.
Lu Fan thought back to the information he knew, if he had a choice, he would not want to be a grandson, and he would not want to get involved in right and wrong.
"Lu Fan, the county lord is here, why don't you come to greet him soon. The county lord shouted in Lu Fan's mansion, and it was difficult to hear it in Lu Fan's small mansion.
Lu Fan turned over and walked quickly to the county lord's side, "County lord, you are here, come on..." Drink some bitter tea" and give his rattan chair to the county lord to sit on.
Today, the county lord was in a good mood, and said with a smile: "Xiao Luzi, your business has been done for you by the county lord, how can you thank me?"
"Then how do you want to thank you, thank you by example" Lu Fan was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut
"Smack" Lu Fan's face was hot, and he was slapped in the face. The county lord said: "If this is the case, then you should not enter the officialdom, otherwise it will be in vain."
"The county lord has taught him a lesson, and he will never dare to talk nonsense anymore" Lu Fan lowered his head and said
The county lord let out an 'um' and smiled again
Like nothing happened: "The imperial capital Tiancheng, located in the center of the Great Shang Empire, has a high terrain, complex terrain, surrounded by mountains, and the mountains inside, which is a typical mountainous area, and the comprehensive terrain of hilly basins can really be described as the 'capital of abundance'." Your job is to guard the west gate of the inner city of the imperial capital leading to the outer city, which is an important position..."
Lu Fan thought it was a good errand, but it turned out to be just an errand to guard the city gate, and the people from Cloud City Academy were probably the worst, and the Peerless Shadow Tribe, which was originally brought out of the valley with Han Bing, may have now been integrated into the local customs of Dashang.
Seeing that Lu Fan didn't care what he said, the county lord slapped Lu Fan on the head again, and said a sentence: "The ancients said, 'Don't take the good as small, don't take the evil as small', this sentence is the same for you, everything has a beginning, the road in the future is to go by yourself, you can't be too ambitious, you should be 'the heavens will descend to the people'"
"Yes, what the county lord said" Lu Fan replied with his head down
"I've already arranged it for you through someone, and you can go to work tomorrow. You are ready to prepare, go, you and your two maids, you and me, don't you" The county lord said angrily and left directly.
