Inside the main hall of Zhongshu Province.

"Uncle don't worry." Xiahou Bupo comforted Xiahou in a soft voice and said: "The conspiracy is not good, we can still conspire with us, and we can also help the second prince to the throne and drive the eldest prince out of the capital." Let's follow the rules from beginning to end, and the Heavenly Master Dao has no chance to interfere even if he wants to. ”

"What do you mean?" Xiahou Ba understood a little, and looked at his nephew with renewed brilliance.

"What belongs to the court belongs to the court, and what is true to the true person belongs to the real person, and the Heavenly Master Dao can't stretch his hand so long after all." Xiahou Bupo leaned into Xiahou Ba's ear and whispered.

Xiahou Ba couldn't help nodding again and again when he heard this, and praised him: "Well, this seems to be better, then listen to you, be patient, ......and take your time," he patted Xiahou's thin shoulder and said, "You think about this matter thoroughly, and after you have the charter, you will be fully responsible." ”

"Yes." Xiahou bowed down in response, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart: 'It's been a whole year......

The defeat of Bailiuzhuang was too painful, although Xiahou Ba did not punish him, but he also threw Xiahou Bupo idle for a year. Only then did Xiahou Bupo's efforts regain the reuse of Xiahou Ba.

"By the way, you think about it for the old man, what kind of errand to find for the kid of the Lu family, which can not only make him acceptable, but also trap him, don't let him be idle all day long, and make trouble with the eldest prince." Xiahou Ba commanded again.

"Yes, my nephew will find him a suitable official position as soon as possible." Xiahou didn't break his voice, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, he didn't give Lu Yun an official position at the beginning, but now he has to take the initiative to arrange it, what is the matter?

。

In the Changle Palace, there was laughter and laughter at this time.

"Okay, your ability to combine verticals and horizontals is not inferior to Su Qin and Zhang Yi. It's really a stroke of genius, breathtaking, breathtaking! While playing chess with Lu Yun, the Initial Emperor praised with a smile on his face: "The widow finally dares to let go and fight for something for the boss." ”

Lu Yun hadn't been in the palace for a while, and this time it was the Initial Emperor who learned about the Heavenly Master Talisman issued by Xu Xuanji, and couldn't suppress the joy in his heart, so he immediately asked Du Hui to personally invite him into the palace to praise him.

"Your Majesty is the chess player who plans the layout, and the minister is just a pawn who charges into battle." Lu Yun did not show any arrogance on his face, and he became more and more respectful and humble towards the Initial Emperor. Obviously, the many changes that have taken place since this spring have made him mature a lot.

For his sensible performance, the Initial Emperor naturally liked it very much. He looked Lu Yun up and down, how pleasing to the eye. He didn't expect that the idle man he had laid out at the beginning would now play such a big role.

"It's a pity that the widow is a princess of no age, otherwise I would have to recruit you as a concubine!" For the first time, the Initial Emperor felt that he didn't want to reward Lu Yun with something. "Since the marriage with Cui Valve has failed, why don't you find a virtuous and virtuous county lord from the clan for you?"

"Your Majesty Xie is very fond, but as soon as the minister hears the word marriage, his head is as big as a fight," Lu Yun naturally thanked Bumin, no matter what aspect he talked about, he would not accept the proposal of the original emperor. "Please spare the ministers, let me live a few days of clean life."

"It's okay to ...... slowly" The words of the initial emperor were also mentioned casually. He naturally knew that Lu Yun's marriage was now a twine ball that was constantly cut and sorted out. Is his marriage with Cui Ning'er still concluded? So far, the two valves have not come up with an explanation. Of course, the initial emperor didn't want to make Cui Valve unhappy because of his casual actions.

Thinking of this, the first emperor stopped talking and said: "The widow is just joking with you, but your marriage with Miss Cui must be treated carefully, no matter whether it is married or divided in the end, it must not spoil the relationship with Cui Valve." ”

"Yes, I know." Lu Yun responded with a smile on his face, but secretly smiled bitterly in his heart, now that there is a Shang Luojia who must be responsible, how can the relationship with Cui Valve not be bad?

Just the day before yesterday, Cui Baiyu also came over to convey Cui Pingzhi's dissatisfaction with him - let him run less to the Shang head office before Cui Ning'er's case stopped.

'It's all the sins of the demon girl, what can I do?' Lu Yun smiled helplessly in his heart, and lost his mind while playing chess with the emperor.

。

In the Hall of Changle.

The initial emperor summoned Lu Yun, and Lu Yun came back to his senses and hurriedly asked the emperor for his guilt.

"Your Majesty, you deserve death for your minister's crimes, and you are actually distracted......"

"It seems that you don't want to continue with Miss Cui." The initial emperor was in a good mood, so naturally he would not worry about the loss of honor in front of him, but also laughed: "Listen to Lao Zuo, you have been running very diligently to the head office of the Shang family recently, are you empathetic and don't fall in love?" ”

"Father-in-law Zuo is really, there is nothing more to tell Your Majesty." Lu Yun smiled and muttered, but did not deny the speculation of the Initial Emperor.

"Oh? Do you really have a crush on Miss Merchant? "The initial emperor didn't expect it, and he really let himself guess. He waved his hand and said, "Don't be dizzy, with your current status, how can you marry a woman outside the eight families?" No matter how rich the merchant is, he will not be worthy of you. ”

Lu Yun naturally didn't like to hear what the Initial Emperor said, so he directly diverted his attention from his own private affairs.

"By the way, Your Majesty, the minister still has a confidential matter to report."

"Tell me, there's no outsider here." Of course, the initial emperor was more concerned about his own affairs, and when he heard this, he immediately waved his hand and asked Du Hui to guard the door.

"During the Chinese New Year, for the marriage of my brother, I visited Meifang and managed to meet Mrs. Mei." Lu Yun's words aroused the strong interest of the Initial Emperor.

"Oh? Then you don't have to suffer. The first emperor couldn't help laughing and said: "Then the old woman and you, don't you meet the enemy and are very red?" ”

"Weichen originally thought that this would be the case, but thinking that the two lords could never intermarry, he wanted to provoke Mrs. Mei." I heard Lu Yun open the river: "But what I didn't expect was that the old lady was very reasonable, saying that the juniors should never come together because of the grievances of the previous generation." ”

"Don't be fooled, the daughter of the Mei family doesn't marry Lu Jialang, it was the rule she set at the beginning." Hearing this, the initial emperor smiled and said: "Now he is pretending to be a good person again, but I am afraid that he has other plans." ”

"Your Majesty Shengming, you can't hide anything from Your Majesty." Lu Yun hurriedly put on a certain high hat, and then said in a deep voice: "Weichen was also puzzled at the time, and later figured out that in the final analysis, the hatred back then was just a personal grudge between the old lady and his father, but the two valves did not get along, and even Mei Valve had a lot of complaints. Now, when she saw that I had come to the door, she also expressed her kindness to my father, expressing her hope to ease the relationship between the two valves. ”

"Which of these valve owners is not calculating? Now seeing that your father has been promoted to the Grand Master and has become the lord of the land valve, Mei Yi of course feels that if the stalemate continues, only the Mei valve will suffer. The initial emperor said with a natural expression: "However, why haven't you heard the news of the easing of the relationship between the two valves, is there any change?" ”
