Mrs. Shi has had countless dreams in her life, but even the most bizarre and absurd dreams are not as good as the reality in front of her, she never thought that her daughter, when she was the daughter of the court, would face a situation that no one wanted.

This is simply an insult to her!

However, she couldn't have a seizure, just because the Taihu disciples here were characters who could decide the rise and fall of Shangshu Mansion with one word!

Yuan Lai and Lu Zhangchaqian gave up a few rounds but did not come up with a result after all, but instead made Mrs. Shi tremble. Eventually, silence returned.

"Madam, His Majesty the Emperor doesn't know about this matter, right?" Lu Zhangcha sighed and said slowly.

"This ......"

Lu Zhangcha continued: "In any case, since I already know about this matter, I can't pretend to be confused, if my teacher knows about this matter, he will definitely not continue this agreement, and His Majesty the Emperor will definitely give me some thin noodles from Taihu Sect, so while I and Miss Qing Zhuo haven't met yet, this marriage should be forgotten, if I have to be entangled, it will also affect Miss Qing Zhuo's reputation." ”

"As for Yuan Lai's affairs......"

Yuan came to see Lu Zhangcha hesitated, and then he also spoke: "Mrs. Shi, I respect you as an elder, and I don't want to say more about it, no matter what you think, I just want to talk about this matter when I come to the door today, and getting angry is not the solution to the problem, since you have prejudices against me, that's fine, I won't mention this marriage to anyone in the future, just as if there is no such thing? Who I want to marry has nothing to do with your Shi family, as for Kaobeizong, I don't want to explain anything, in short, that's my business, in a word, my toad in Shencheng actually has a very picky mouth, and swan meat may not really be what we want to pursue. ”

Mrs. Shi's face changed for a while, she wanted to argue and explain, she wanted to scold and wail, she was not a woman with great wisdom, just a housewife who could only be comfortable in the house.

At this moment, it is obviously not possible to make Lu Zhangcha retract her determination, she vaguely understands that the break of this marriage may not only affect the promotion of her master's career, but also make His Majesty the Emperor's move quietly fail.

She didn't know much about things in the cultivation world, but at least she knew that the two sects of the north and south had always been enemies of each other, and Taihu Lake was the object of the emperor's wooing.

Marriage has always been a kind of co-optation, and her Shi family's pretense of wisdom broke off this marriage, for fear that it would also indirectly stir up the sinister rivers and lakes of the cultivation world.

"Master Lu, we can still ...... this matter" She still tried to redeem it, but only a faint voice from Lu Zhangcha was ushered in: "Please don't embarrass me, Madame." ”

After speaking, he got up and said to Yuan Lai, "Then let's go?"

"Let's go, then. Yuan Lai sighed and patted his buttocks.

Mrs. Shi was a little at a loss, she didn't have a chance to say anything since she entered the hall, at first it was because of Yuan Lai's sudden revelation of her identity, which made her stunned and speechless, and then it was Lu Zhangcha's words that made her sweat coldly, she always felt that she was a very capable woman, but it was not until today that she realized that it did not seem to be the case.

She wanted to stop Lu Zhangcha to explain, but in a trance, she didn't know how to speak, it was a scandal for a woman to marry a second husband, let alone for places like Taihu Lake.

......

......

"Where are you going next?" Yuan Lai asked, leaving Shangshu Mansion.

"Go to Beizong. Lu Zhangcha sighed.

"Shi Qing Zhuo is really practicing in the Northern Sect?"

"How do I know, aren't you going to get in, then I'll see for myself when you get in. Lu Zhangcha smiled softly.

Yuan Lai smiled, looked up at the dense courtyard houses in the distance, with red walls and green trees, and said, "Whether I can pass the exam or not, don't forget that I haven't even entered the first realm." ”

"My gut tells me you can get in. ”

"Yohe, do you cultivators still believe in intuition?"

"You're not right, it's because I'm a practitioner that I value intuition more, and for a practitioner, intuition is obviously more correct. Lu Zhangcha said lightly.

"Okay, then I'll borrow your auspicious words. Yuan Lai smiled lightly, then thought for a while and suddenly said, "That Mrs. Shi seems to be quite afraid of you." ”

"It's not me she's afraid of, it's my teacher, it's the whole Taihu Lake. ”

"I heard that the emperor pulled the strings in this matter. ”

Lu Zhangcha sighed and said, "Yes, do you remember the question you asked me when we first met?"

Yuan Lai was stunned for a moment, thought about it slightly, and then said, "What is the farthest distance in the world?"

"That's the question, do you remember my answer?" Xu remembered the scene when the two first met, and Lu Zhangcha couldn't help but smile.

"You say it's the distance between north and south. ”

"That's right, it's the distance between the south and the north, if you say it more clearly, it's the distance between the south sect and the north sect, it's very far, as far as the moat. ”

Lu Zhangcha's voice was a little emotional.

"Tell me?"

“...... There are so many stories about these two behemoths that I can say that I can talk about them for three days and three nights. ”

Yuan Lai groaned slightly and said, "Then pick what I'm interested in and talk about, for example, what is the relationship between the emperor and Beizong?"

The street outside the gate of Shangshu Mansion is very long, and every morning when the sky is still bright, the ministers will ride along this street and yawn and go to the imperial city, so if you walk slowly along this street, Yuan Lai can talk a lot.

"The Emperor and the Northern Sect ...... In fact, it can be said that the entire Northern Sect is actually the emperor's. Lu Zhangcha's words were amazing.

"Both the Southern and Northern Sects have always been enemies, although on the surface neither the North nor the South admit this. A long, long time ago, the two sects of the north and the south were actually one, but later they were divided into two due to some complex reasons, one south and one north regarded each other as opponents. Until now, if the Canglang River of Qiguo is taken as a dividing line, the south of the Canglang River is Nanzhou, that is, the location of the Southern Sect, and the north of the river until the 800 miles of ruins in the north is the real sphere of influence of the Great Qi Imperial Family, and it also belongs to the scope of the Northern Sect. ”

"Cultivation is inseparable from resources. The disciples of the sect want to eat and drink, to read and write, to practice martial arts, to swallow the Lingcao pill, to travel to the big men of the sect to wear fancy clothes and frames, to pomp and worship, practitioners are also people, people have to eat, drink and use, people are greedy for pleasure, even if the cultivators really have no greed at all, but just the daily expenditure of the sect is a terrible consumption, as the saying goes, raising the army costs money like running water, why not raising the sect?"

"So, who is the person with the most resources in this world?" Lu Zhangcha asked.

"It's the Emperor. Yuan replied.

"That's right, it's the emperor, only the emperor can support the consumption of the great Northern Sect, and only then can the Northern Sect always be above the Southern Sect!"

"Therefore, the entire Northern Sect actually belongs to the emperor. ”
