Chapter 213: No Gifts
Quiescence.
Deathly silence.
Lu Qian's words instantly stopped the sound of silk bamboo pipa around him, and the air seemed to be swept by a twelve-level snowstorm, which was chilling.
The middle-aged man in black kowtowed abruptly and didn't dare to move.
"Lord Lu, what do you mean by that?"
Cao He squinted and stared at Lu Gan, his eyes were as sharp as a sword, but he didn't see a trace of anger.
Liu Sankai on the left and right, Han Tian, one with a short beard, the other turned the jade cup in his hand, his pupils shrunk, and his expression was calm.
Lu Qian raised his glass and drank it all, and his cold face suddenly smiled like a spring breeze: "Haha! This official is just joking! Maybe this official is used to catching heads, and everyone thinks he is a prisoner! Steward Cao, you won't be angry, right?"
“......”
Cao He, Liu Sankai, and Han Tian all looked paddled.
In the moment just now, Lu Qian's incomparably vivid interpretation of what it means to turn his face is like turning a book, which is completely incomprehensible.
This made the hearts of the three of them sink.
Cao He's expression softened, and he arched his hand and said: "Lord Lu is dedicated to the people, which is really the blessing of Qingyang County! Cao admires it!
As he spoke, he raised his glass to toast, his attitude was very humble, and he had never seen a trace of anger on his face.
Obviously a scheming and gloomy guy with a deep city government.
Lu Qian smiled, returned a cup, and his eyes fell on the middle-aged man in black: "If this had been done before, this official would have arrested him in prison a long time ago, and let him taste the severity of the punishment of the Suppression Division." It's a pity that he is lucky, the official has recently become obsessed with Buddhist scriptures, and his anger has been lost a lot. That's it, spare his life. ”
"Lord Lu is broad-minded, and Cao admires it. ”
Cao He arched his hand, turned his head and said, "Throw this guy away, so as not to stain Lord Lu's eyes." ”
"Yes!"
The old man in the green shirt arched his hand, grabbed the man in black like an eagle catching a chicken, and turned to leave.
Then, a delicate voice came from outside the door: "Steward Cao, Miss Yaochi has arrived." ”
"Come in!"
After Cao He finished speaking, he turned his head and smiled: "Lord Lu, I hope that Miss Yaochi's dancing skills will not disappoint you." ”
Lu Qian nodded and looked at the door.
I saw a snow-white shadow leaping towards him, landing in the open space in the field, and flicking his long sleeves in his hand, like a shocking flood flying from the sky, pounced in front of Lu Gan.
Immediately, people danced with their clothes, dancing like a flood.
The sound of silk and bamboo sounded around him, and a veiled snow-white face loomed between the fluttering skirts, and his eyes were like green smoke on the river, ethereal and hazy, and he wanted to speak.
Lu Gan's body was half-leaned, looking intently, with one hand on his chin and the jade cup in the other, taking a few sips from time to time.
His expression was calm, and his eyes were like a 10,000-year-old well, undisturbed.
At the end of the song, the dancing girl in the audience stopped, dressed in white, with a face like a goose egg and beautiful eyes like smoke, and saluted Lu Qianyingying.
It does have a bit of the temperament of the fairy of Yaochi who is descended from heaven to earth.
If you talk about the appearance, on the water, it is comparable to Fang Youxue, and each has its own merits.
"Lord Lu, what do you think?"
At this time, Cao He asked.
Lu Qian put down his wine glass and frowned slightly: "Does Steward Cao really want this official to say?"
"Lord Lu, but it doesn't hurt to say!" Cao He said.
"Yaochi also wants to hear Lord Lu's high opinions, so please ask Lord Lu for advice. ”
The Yao Chi in the field opened, and the voice was as sweet as wine.
"Okay. ”
Lu Gan nodded, pondered it slightly, and spit out a sentence: "This official thinks that you dance well, the only drawback...... It's just that there are more clothes on the body. ”
Hmmm!
As soon as these words came out, Cao He, Liu Sankai, and Han Tian were stunned on the spot, and their eyes widened slightly.
Yao Chi's beautiful eyes in the hall were as wide as bells, her teeth were clenched, and a trace of annoyance appeared on her face.
Regarding Lu Gan's evaluation, there are only two words in their hearts: vulgar!
Even with it, standing on the left seat behind Lu Gan, Sun Hei felt a little blushing and embarrassed.
"Ahem, Lord Lu's comments are very good! Miss Yaochi will improve next time! Lord Lu, why don't you let Miss Yaochi accompany you to have a drink?"
At this time, Cao He coughed lightly and proposed.
Lu Qian smiled, glanced at the goose egg beauties in the field, shook his head and smiled: "Steward Cao, you are stingy! This official has one hand on his left and one hand on his right, how can one beauty be enough, at least two!"
“......”
Cao He's face stiffened with a smile, and then nodded: "Lord Lu is right! Come on, go and invite the coral girl over!"
"Yes!"
Someone outside the door answered.
Then, Yao Chi Lian moved lightly, came to Lu Gan's side, smiled lightly, and poured Lu Qian full of wine.
Between the gestures, there is a kind of graceful and luxurious bearing, which makes people dare not underestimate and despise, and naturally dare not move their hands and feet.
Lu Qian smiled, took the wine glass from her Ruyu Su hand, and didn't eat tofu indiscriminately.
After a while, another small jasper-like beauty, petite and exquisite, as white as jade porcelain, came in, saluted everyone, and sat on the other side of Lu Gan.
This woman is one of the eight flowers.
She has a very peculiar aroma, quiet and elegant, and it is rumored that it can attract a group of fish in the water, which is very mysterious.
So, everyone began to eat, drink, greet, and laugh for a while, and they were happy.
Halfway through the wine, Cao He put down the jade cup and bowed his hand and said: "Lord Lu has a wonderful idea to come up with such a "Qingyang County Residence Travel Guide", Cao admires and admires!"
"That's right!"
Liu Sankai on the side stroked his short beard and said with a smile: "As soon as this guide comes out, it is convenient for the passing tourists and businessmen of Qingyang County, which is simply a great merit!
Lu Qian smiled, gave a toast in return, and said, "The two of you have won the prize." It's just a new thing, printed once a month, the first time is naturally bought by many people, and I'm afraid no one will buy it in the second month. ”
Lord Lu was humble. ”
At this time, Han Tian, the glamorous Taoist aunt on the right, winked and smiled: "The concubine heard that Lord Lu is preparing to dig a canal and build twenty-eight iron ox flying roads, which will be connected to Gaotang County in the south, Youzhou in the east, and the ancient tea merchant road in the west. At that time, Qingyang County will be the center of Qingzhou, connecting the east and west, and the goods will go north and south, and I am afraid that more and more merchants and tourists will buy this guide. ”
"Huh, Steward Han is really well-informed!"
Lu Gan was slightly surprised, shook his head and sighed: "This is indeed the idea! However, the Iron Ox Flying Road is difficult to repair, a 30,000 taels of gold, the official has just put the Zhenfu Division into operation, and the manpower has not been recruited enough, so how can there be spare money to dig the canal and open the railway?"
"Hehe, Lord Lu's trouble is the old man's trouble!"
Liu San laughed and arched his hand: "Coincidentally, the old man has saved some silver over the years, I wonder if he can help Lord Lu?"
Hearing this, Lu Gan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "This official is honest and honest, how can he accept the money of ordinary people?
"Lord Lu, don't say that!"
Cao He arched his hand and said: "As the people of Qingyang County, we naturally look forward to Qingyang County becoming better! If Qingyang County becomes better, some of Cao's small businesses can also borrow the light of Lord Lu and prosper!"
Han Tian on the other side also smiled: "Steward Cao is right. The concubines have accumulated a lot of goods in the silk villages, just because they can't be transported. If Qingyang County really becomes the center of Qingzhou, then the concubine body will not have to worry every day. ”
"Still won't work!"
Lu Qian shook his head and said with great righteousness: "This official has been an official for so long, and he has never received a gift! This matter, everyone in Shashui County, Feiyun County, and Heyuan County knows about it! No, this official can't break the vows!"
This is really shameless!
Cao and the three made eye contact, and there was a burst of disdain in his heart.
Who doesn't know that when Lu Qian was the head catcher in Shashui County, he took filial piety from Xie Anping, Zhou Hongyuan, and Baili Mad every year.
However, although the three of them were disdainful in their hearts, their faces did not show any of it.
Liu Sankai smiled, bowed his hand and said: "Lord Lu is worthy of being a person appreciated by His Majesty! Clear as a mirror and as cheap as water! The two sleeves are breezy! The old man is happy and convinced!"
"Steward Liu is polite. This is also one of the excellent qualities of this official, and this official will continue to maintain it. ”
Lu Qian smiled and nodded, without a trace of modesty on his face.
This made Cao and the three of them even more aware of Lu Gan's shamelessness.
Suddenly, Han Tian smiled and said, "Lord Lu, the concubine has a reluctant request, I don't know if I should talk about it?"
"Oh, Steward Han, please speak!"
Lu Qian smiled softly and nodded.
"Thank you, Lord Lu. ”
Han Tian nodded and thanked him, and sighed: "That's the case." The concubine has a distant niece, she also runs a silk village, and the business has been getting worse and worse recently, and she is about to get sick, and the concubine wants to ask, I wonder if she can make her silk village on the guide?"
When Lu Qian heard this, his fingers tapped on the jade table and groaned.
In the end, he raised his head and lightly spit out three words: "You have to add money." ”
