Chapter 178: The county lord is loved

Lu Xuan should wish that Li Ce would have no place to be buried, it was rare for someone to teach him a lesson, but she actually offered her face in exchange to keep him safe.

Shen Xixu didn't know what Lu Xuan was thinking in his heart, but when he saw her open his mouth, he also obeyed her wishes and forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart.

"Okay, since Lord Lu has opened his mouth, the county lord will not care about you for her face, but if there is a next time, the county lord will not be spared!" Shen Xixu glared at Li Ce viciously as he spoke.

Seeing this, Li Ce hurriedly leaned over: "Fang Cai is a subordinate official, thank you to His Royal Highness the county lord Haihan." ”

Seeing that Li Ce also admitted his mistake, Shen Xixu was not good at showing too arrogant side in front of Lu Xuan, so he reluctantly let Li Ce go.

turned to look at Lu Xuan: "Ah Xuan, when can you leave today?" I want to take you somewhere. ”

Shen Xixu became extremely intimate with Lu Xuan's address, which made the people around him surprised.

Lu Xuan herself was even more stunned by her sudden "Ah Xuan", and then hurriedly showed a look of dignity and humility, and leaned down towards Shen Xixu: "The official is busy with government affairs, I don't know what His Royal Highness the county lord has." ”

Seeing that Lu Xuan was already busy, as if he wanted to reject himself, Shen Xixu's face suddenly flashed with displeasure, but he nodded calmly.

"That's it, since Ah Xuan is inconvenient today, then I will come back another day." Shen Xixu said.

Lu Xuan couldn't help but be scared out of a cold sweat by her: What? Do you want to come back another day?

Out of Lu Xuan's selfishness, she never wanted to see Shen Xixu in the place where she was dealing with business again.

Seeing that the eyes of his colleagues around him slowly became strange, Lu Xuan couldn't help but want to defend himself.

It's just that rejecting Shen Xixu's friendship in front of so many people will hurt the dignity of His Royal Highness the county lord, not to mention, and maybe it will make Lu Xuan hated by others.

After thinking for a long time, Lu Xuan spoke: "The status of the lower official is humble, His Royal Highness the county lord does not need to take such pains to deal with the lower official. ”

Lu Xuan thought that his refusal was both tactful and clear, but Shen Xixu's temperament has always been straightforward, and when he heard this, he instantly moved out yesterday's rebuttal to Lu Xuan.

"I said that I don't have to care about these identities, if I, Shen Xixu, love someone, it will only be because of him, and it has nothing to do with his identity and power." Shen Xixu said arrogantly.

Lu Xuan's heart became more and more frightened, yesterday Shen Xixu said it tactfully, but now he directly said the word "love" in front of so many people, which really made it difficult for Lu Xuan to deal with himself.

After a while, Lu Xuan seemed to hear a small discussion around her, and she didn't have to think about it, she knew that it must be her colleagues who were talking about her seducing the only daughter of the eldest princess by some means.

But those people were afraid of Shen Xixu's face, and they spoke very carefully, and they never reached her ears for a while.

Lu Xuan hesitated for a long time, but still felt that he should not let Shen Xixu's feelings develop for no reason.

So I had to put aside the matter at hand for the time being, and promised Shen Xixu: "Then the lower official will go with His Royal Highness the county lord, and it just so happens that the lower official also has some private matters that he wants to discuss with His Royal Highness the county lord in detail." ”

Shen Xixu suddenly smiled when he heard this: "Okay, then let's go." ”

Lu Xuan followed Shen Xixu and left in front of a group of colleagues in desperation.

As soon as the two of them left on their front feet, there was a burst of discussion in the household compound-

"This Lu Xuan is really capable, some time ago, he was full of rumors with His Royal Highness the Fierce King, and now he has been mixed up with the county lord of Pingchuan, this man's ability to eat is really enviable." A broken-mouthed official at the same level as Lu Xuan said with disdain.

Then another responded: "Who's to say it's not? She's clinging to all powerful people, but she's much more shrewd than those of us who just keep our heads down and work hard. ”

The two men, still out of jealousy, talked about one according to the previous rumors, and the next one seemed to be full of hostilityβ€”

"What do you know, who doesn't know that when His Majesty ordered Lu Xuan to be transferred from the Criminal Department to the Household Department, His Royal Highness the Fierce King didn't say anything, her move was nothing more than the loss of a backer, so she had to find her next home as soon as possible!"

It sounds sarcastic, but it speaks to everyone's mind.

Looking at these people who are jealous of Lu Xuan at this time, if they can really rely on their skin to gain the favor of the powerful, and then make themselves rise to the top in the officialdom, I am afraid that none of them will go to such great trouble as now.

The voices of several people became louder and louder, and finally attracted Chen Weizhi, who had been nesting in the study.

At that time, one of them was laughing at Lu Xuan, who was neither male nor female, except for his appearance, he was useless, and he could have his current status by relying on some unsightly means.

Behind him, a man's almost angry voice came: "Are you all here to eat idle food?" On weekdays, you don't do your job, but you talk about other people's private affairs, is this the purpose of your entry into the court as an official? ”

Although the official positions of these people who spoke were not high, looking at the entire household department, there was no second person who would directly scold their colleagues except Chen Weizhi.

Chen Weizhi has always been afraid of heaven and earth, and even Emperor Liang Qinyi, the Ninety-Five Supreme, is sometimes afraid of his words, not to mention these empty petty officials here.

Naturally, none of them dared to refute Chen Weizhi's words, and they all hurriedly clamped their tails and silenced.

Chen Weizhi stepped forward at this time, and he could hear it clearly, it was Lu Xuan who was talking about these people.

But after all, they are all under the same roof, and being insulted like this, can Lu Xuan turn a deaf ear?

When I saw Lu Xuan refute himself on weekdays, he was quite a bit not afraid of the posture of the powerful, why did he easily succumb to these villains this time?

Chen Weizhi was puzzled, then looked around but there was no trace of Lu Xuan, and instead looked at the trembling and groveling people on the other side with a look of displeasure.

"What about Lu Lingshi?" Chen Weizhi asked.

Several people looked at each other, and no one dared to speak for a while.

Until Chen Weizhi's face became more and more gloomy: "Isn't Fang Cai quite able to say one by one, why didn't anyone reply when the official asked at this time, so he didn't take the official in his eyes?" ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, after working with Chen Weizhi for so many years, he seemed to have never put on an official show like this at this moment.

At this time, even Chen Weizhi has learned to bully others, and it seems that they have really stepped on the tail of the tiger.

After being silent for a long time, an unlucky person was finally pushed out by a few people, and then he walked up to Chen Weizhi.

"Back in Chen Langzhong, Lu Lingshi was taken away by the county lord of Pingchuan." This person responded respectfully, and the contempt that Fang had just mocked Lu Xuan was missing from his words.

Chen Weizhi was stunned for a moment: "Pingchuan County Lord? What is she doing here? ”

Chen Weizhi has always known Shen Xixu's name, but after all, she is a royal family and a daughter's family, so there is no intersection between the two, and they have never even met.

As for when the county lord of Pingchuan began to become interested in the affairs of the household department, Chen Weizhi was even more puzzled.

He then looked at the person who replied: "How could the county lord of Pingchuan find Lu Xuan?" ”

This stopped the person who replied, just now he was severely reprimanded by Chen Weizhi for discussing Lu Xuan and Shen Xixu in private, at this time, in front of him, how dare he speak nonsense?

Seeing that the other party didn't answer, Chen Weizhi coerced him by some means: "So disrespectful, don't you want this month's money?" ”

The household department was already in charge of the financial operation of the Liang Dynasty, and Chen Weizhi was personally appointed by Emperor Liang Qin to be in charge of officials at all levels.

He let out such words, and these people didn't dare to hide anything in front of him.

This finally attracted one of them to speak: "Back to Chen Langzhong, His Royal Highness the County Lord of Fangcai insisted on looking for Lu Xuan, and the two were intimately spoken, and it seemed that there was some kind of unspeakable relationship. ”

Hearing this, Chen Weizhi didn't want to think about it, so he sharply dismissed this person's nonsense: "Presumptuous! The eldest princess's only daughter, the county lord of Pingchuan, can also be easily discussed? ”

Before reprimanding others, Chen Weizhi didn't think about it carefully, this sentence was obviously to protect Shen Xixu's face as a royal family, but in fact, he was lying to protect Lu Xuan.

And Chen Weizhi seemed to be a subconscious reaction when he spoke, combined with the experience of openly opposing Lu Xuan and the crown prince in the court several times before, he even felt that defending Lu Xuan seemed to have become one of his habits.

Thinking of this, Chen Weizhi couldn't help but feel that he was fascinated by ghosts: what do you do to protect her in a good manner? What does she have to do with me?

No matter how entangled Chen Weizhi's expression was at this time, anyway, the few people who spoke just now were completely frightened by his attitude, and they didn't even have the courage to raise their eyes and take a look.

Chen Weizhi reluctantly let go of these villains who were talking about others behind his back, and then returned to the study to lock himself up.

On the other side, Lu Xuan followed Shen Xixu all the way and didn't know where he went, but he felt that the scenery here seemed to be good, and it was a scenery that Lu Xuan had never seen in his previous life and this life.

But right now, Lu Xuan is full of how to reject Shen Xixu's mind for a while, and no matter how beautiful the scenery in front of her is, she can't be the slightest interested.

It wasn't until he walked to a sea of flowers that Shen Xixu looked back with a bright face, and then Lu Xuan turned his head: "Ah Xuan, is it beautiful here?" ”

Lu Xuan nodded dumbly when he heard this, wondering what Shen Xixu meant?

After a while, I saw that her face seemed to be flushed with two circles of redness, and she had been brewing for a long time before she raised her eyes to look at Lu Xuan.

At this time, the expression on her face has long lost the immaturity of Fang Cai, and it can even be called cautious.

It stands to reason that there should not be such a hesitant look on the face of the pampered and confident and generous county lord of Pingchuan.
