Chapter 27 The Three Sons
Lu Mansion is a high-ranking family, according to the practice of the family, unless it is to welcome the holy decree or a person with a higher official position, the middle door is generally not opened, and the people next to him have to go to the wrong door.
Jiang Banxia is familiar with the side door of the Lu Mansion, people often say that the prime minister is in front of the seven officials, she expected that today she would not be scolded by the gatekeepers, but as soon as the door opened, the head poked out was a small guy with a raw face, not tall and dark-skinned, not like a Kyoto person.
"Looking for whom?" The little guy spoke with a northwestern accent.
She didn't answer the little girl's question, but asked, "Where is the king dog who guarded the side door before?" ”
"King dog?" The little guy thought about it for a long time, and said unsurely: "Wang Gou seems to have been transferred to the third young master's house by the master." "When Wang Gou left, it seemed that the third prince had caused trouble in the academy.
The master changed the people around the third son, and Wang Gou was able to withstand this good errand.
Lu Cheng's youngest son Lu Xun is about to come back soon, and it is common sense to transfer people over, Jiang Banxia left this matter behind, she entered the door sideways, leaving the little girl who was still in a daze.
The little guy thought for a moment, and when he turned his head and wanted to say a few more words to Jiang Banxia, he found that the person had already run away and disappeared.
Jiang Banxia walked around the front hall to the side courtyard where she lived, and before she passed the front hall, she heard a faint conversation from the building.
"The third prince has caused a big disaster this time, I saw the old man taking someone out angrily when I was serving tea this morning, and his face was really terrible..."
"Estimate the time, and the master should bring someone back in a while." The maid who accosted her kept her voice low: "I heard that the third prince was messing with people in the academy and was approached by his brother... The old man was furious, and it was estimated that it would be difficult tonight. ”
"What?" Hearing this, the maid exclaimed: "How could the third son and one person do such a thing?" ”
"Shhhhh
“......”
The more the two maidservants talked, the more biased they became, and Jiang Banxia continued to listen to his thoughts.
Lu Cheng's youngest son seems to be playing a little big, although it is a common practice to detain and obscure male prostitutes, but it is all a private matter, and no one has ever said it in public.
Especially for officials in the DPRK and China, there will be a fig leaf in the middle of this kind of thing, and once the fig leaf is uncovered and poked in front of Banzai, I am afraid it will be terrible.
But what does it have to do with her?
Jiang Banxia returned to the side courtyard, she originally wanted the maid to fetch some hot water, but she remembered that she was not to be seen here, so she drew a basin of cold water from the well and hastily wiped the wound on her left arm.
The wound was not very deep, but it was long, and after sloppily smearing some gold sore medicine, Jiang Banxia wrapped it tightly with a strip of cloth.
Injury is inevitable, when my father and brother were there in the past, they were always injured in the execution of tasks, and at that time, my mother always helped them bandage gently, she sat on the side to help carry water and medicine, Jiang Banxia thought a little dazed.
Meow~
A sudden cat meow brought her back to her senses.
Following the sound, there was a raccoon slave standing on the high outer wall, and the copper coin pattern on the tanuki slave was very dazzling.
How could the old fox's cat be here? Jiang Banxia Nahan.
She looked up at the raccoon slave lying on the wall, and the little raccoon licked her paws and meowed at her grievances humanely.
The little raccoon slave should have climbed up the wall along the tree from the outside, and after climbing up, she couldn't get down, Jiang Banxia looked around and didn't find a ladder that could climb the wall, so she stood under the wall and stretched out her arm to signal the little raccoon slave to jump down.
Meow~
The little civet slave screamed softly again, and looked at Jiang Banxia's arms, it kicked its hind legs, jumped down directly, and threw itself into Jiang Banxia's arms.
I don't know what good things Cao Alcohol's old fox has eaten for the cat in the past few days, and it is so heavy!
Jiang Banxia was knocked back several steps, she forked the little raccoon slave, and saw the old man who pulled the raccoon slave like a spring.
How can a cat that is only three months old be so big? Jiang Banxia held the raccoon slave and took a closer look, she felt that it might be because the cats paid tribute by Fanbang were not the same as the cats in the Central Plains.
Just like dogs, there are naturally small dogs and big dogs.
After Jiang Banxia put the little raccoon slave on the ground, she didn't pay any attention to it, she turned around and entered the house.

At the same time, in the front hall of the Lu Mansion, Lu Cheng ordered people to close the doors and windows, he sat on the top with a gloomy face, and the rest sat on the right hand side of Lu Cheng's wife Wang and a concubine.
"Dad, it's time for your temper to change." The kneeling young man in front of the hall slanted as if he had no bones: "Don't hear people say that the wind is the rain all day long, I didn't do that." ”
Originally, Lu Cheng was holding a sigh of relief in his heart, and when he heard Lu Xun's words that he had no bones, he was angry and threw the cup in his hand directly.
The cup pointed directly at Lu Xun's head, and at the moment when it was about to hit his head, Lu Xun turned his head, and the cup fell to the ground behind him and shattered into eight petals.
"Rebel!" Lu Cheng was trembling by his angry teeth, he hammered the table with one hand into a fist, immediately picked up the matching knife at hand, and slapped Lu Xun's back fiercely with the handle of the knife.
The sound of metal and flesh clashing made people's spines ache to hear.
"Hey, Dad, I'm still your own! It's so ruthless. Lu Xun grinned and shouted: "You don't even ask me what's going on, it's a beating, it's too ruthless!" ”
Lu Cheng turned around and kicked Lu Xun away, his face became even more gloomy: "I still ask you what's going on?" Well? I'm afraid I'll go later for that little bit of, and the whole of Kyoto will know about it tomorrow! ”
Mrs. Lu, who had been sitting on her right hand side and seemed calm, looked unbearable, and she pleaded in a low voice: "Master, San'er is just confused for a while, you just listen to him and tell me what is going on." ”
"A woman's kindness." Lu Cheng snorted coldly: "Come on, put this rebel in the firewood room!" No one is allowed to approach without my permission! ”
"Dad, you are so determined that you don't listen to my explanation!" Lu Xun shouted twice, and what he got was the silence of the whole family.
It can be seen that Lu Cheng's status in the family is that no one dares to disobey.
"The third son is offended." The little guys rushed up, set up Lu Xun and dragged it to the firewood room.
Lu Xun didn't struggle, he didn't even pout.
Seeing this, the anger that had just calmed down in Lu Cheng's heart burned again, and he slapped the knife on the table for no reason: "Evil obstacle! Evil obstacles! ”
"Master..."Mrs. Lu wanted to speak and stopped, and when she just mustered up the courage to say something more, Lu Cheng waved his hand and said: "You don't have to beg for mercy for that rebel son, but as long as he has his eldest brother to let me worry, I won't do it today, just let him reflect on it in the firewood room." ”
"Master, I'm not pleading for San'er." Mrs. Lu stepped forward and grabbed Lu Cheng's clothes: "I just want to know the rumors outside that he... Is it true that he had something to do with the merchant? ”
After Mrs. Lu asked this question, the hall was silent for a while.
After a pause, Lu Cheng hummed untraceably.
"It's... Be... It's true? Mrs. Lu's hand let go in vain, and she staggered back two steps: "How come?" How could Jing'er? How could it be..."
Lu Cheng supported Mrs. Lu, who was about to fall to the ground, and he commanded the servants around him: "Madame is tired, why don't you help her down to rest." ”
