At this time when the situation in the DPRK and China was turbulent, another group of people came to Beijing, it was the Qingcheng Sect Yushu Zhenren and his disciple Tianquan, and several inner disciples came with them.

This group of people has attracted the attention of many people when they first entered the capital, and it must be known that this Gyeonggi important place has strict sword control laws on weekdays, and if you want to hold a sword and wear a sword, it is not an ordinary family, even a high-ranking official and nobleman, and it is difficult to be an exception.

But Yushu Zhenren was carrying a long sword on his back, simple and slender, with a brown sword spike hanging from the hilt, and a dark blue glow faintly revealed under the gray scabbard, like the light of the moon, and the colorful flowers loomed.

From this appearance alone, it is undoubtedly a rare and good sword, but if there are masters here, you can recognize it at a glance, this sword is called Shushuang, and it is a token of the head of the Qingcheng faction.

In addition, this sword is one of the "Dao swords" used by the Qingcheng faction to sacrifice heaven and earth, so the frost is really a sacrificial weapon, not a killing sword, so Yushu Zhenren can bring it into the capital.

Yushu Zhenren did not act in a low-key manner, although the Qingcheng faction is a Jianghu sect, it is also the orthodox inheritance of Taoism, so he doesn't have to hide.

Moreover, this time the matter is extraordinary, the more he hides it, the more people are worried, it is better to be righteous and bright, he has righteousness, and he is not afraid of the ghost.

The affairs of the rivers and lakes have always been valued by the Jinyi Guard, so the Yushu Zhenren and his party have been targeted by the Jinyi Guards as soon as they entered the Zhili, and today they entered the city, and there are countless eyeliners watching them openly and secretly.

Seeing that this group of people went straight to the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion, the eyeliner immediately returned to Jinyiwei, and after Lu Hanjiang received the news, he couldn't help but smack his lips and said: "This head of Yushu is bright and fair, and he will come to the door directly." ”

Wu Qiming said: "Although the Qingcheng Sect Nanshan Immortals are involved in the plot to assassinate His Majesty, but the lights are extinguished, and His Majesty has not mentioned that he will be crushed and scattered. ”

It has been a long time since the matter of the immortals in Nanshan, and the people of the Yamen threw the corpse to the mass grave in the back mountain to cover some soil, and now what the Qingcheng faction wants is nothing more than to cross a clear road and bring the corpse back, so that the disciples under the sect will not even have a chance to sacrifice after his death.

"Let's let Lord Fu Yin drag it out first." Lu Hanjiang said after pondering for a moment.

The disciples of the Nanshan Immortal lineage naturally wanted to welcome the corpse back, but what Yushu Zhenren thought was still unknown, so it was better to see the situation first.

There was no hurry in this matter, Lu Hanjiang looked at the sky, and it was close to lunch, so he asked, "Is there anything else to pay attention to in Beijing these days?" ”

Wu Qiming thought for a while and said, "There are no big things, small things are constant, please rest assured." ”

Lu Hanjiang nodded, after the business was done, he was going to get off work secretly, Wu Qiming didn't stop people without interest, but congratulated him on the recent fact that he wanted to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors.

Speaking of this, Lu Hanjiang remembered a strange thing, originally the day when the Lu clan opened the ancestral hall was approaching, he planned to go back to the Lu family today and talk to Lu Shangshu, but what he didn't expect was that Lord Shangshu went out.

And Shangshu went to an ordinary place, the place he went to was Guozijian, and the person he visited was Luo Yuanjing.

......

In the cold winter season, the doors and windows of Old Master Luo's study are still wide open, and the cool breeze blows, but his old man is unmoved.

"Lord Shangshu, it's rare to take a break today, but you are still running around for business, which is commendable." Old Master Luo said calmly.

Lu Yannian's face was calm, and he smiled at the eucalyptus seat: "There are many things at the end of the year, don't dare to be careless, listen to the officials of the Ministry of Rites below, the gift to Your Majesty at this New Year's banquet, the boss doesn't seem to be ready." ”

Old Master Luo's face did not change, and he said solemnly: "Guozijian teaches and educates people, and there are only a few articles on gifts over the years, and the gifts can be submitted for review in seven days at most. ”

Lu Yannian said kindly: "After all, it is a matter of the face of the court, and the late students have to pay attention to it, since the adults are okay to speak, then naturally the later students naturally dare not say much." ”

After that, Lu Yannian looked at the tea on the table, and said with a smile: "I have long heard that the old man loves tea, and there is a saying that the old man 'does not drink good tea', I happen to be here today, I don't know if I can ask for a cup to try?" ”

Old Master Luo kept silent, raised his hand slightly, and calmly brewed a pot of tea, which was immediately fragrant and refreshing, and after a while, he took matters into his own hands and made a cup for Lu Shangshu.

"Thank you, Lord."

Lu Yannian picked up the tea and tasted it, and exclaimed: "The fragrance is like orchid cinnamon, the taste is like sweet rain, and the tea taste is perfect. ”

Old Master Luo said vigorously: "Lu Shangshu is really well-informed, this old tea in the south of the Yangtze River is not widely spread, and you can actually taste the taste." ”

"The boss praised it falsely, but I just tasted some by chance."

Lu Yannian turned his head to look at the snow outside the window, and said with a bit of memory in his tone: "Ink Jiangnan, outstanding people, I received a little kindness from Lord Meng here by chance, although more than 20 years have passed, but now in retrospect, it seems to have happened yesterday." ”

Old Master Luo raised his eyebrows and glanced at Lu Yannian, then slowly looked away, he said: "I thought that Lu Shangshu was also obsessed with glory and wealth, but I didn't expect it to have such a relationship, it seems that the Lu family has some merits." ”

"Adults praise it like this, and they can't afford it in their later years." Lu Yannian said humbly.

As he spoke, there was an occasional gust of wind outside the window, and a few snowflakes floated onto Old Master Luo's lap, which was gently swept away by him, fell to the ground, and melted away in a moment.

"Lu Shangshu has deceived many people over the years, but he didn't know that even you secretly took refuge in Jinyiwei," Luo Fuzi looked at him and said: "The Lu clan has cleared its name for generations, and in order to be quick for a while, Lord Shangshu wants to ignore the century-old reputation of the clan. ”

"The boss is serious, I have received the grace of a little water, and there is still a reward from Yangquan, Lord Meng treats me sincerely, and I naturally dare not live up to his kindness in my later life." Lu Yannian's expression was calm.

"Lu Shangshu knows how to repay kindness, and he is indeed a person who values righteousness and etiquette," Luo Fuzi narrowed his eyes: "But I don't know what kind of kindness Meng Yuan has given you, and you need to repay you like this?" ”

"It's just a small thing."

Lu Yannian smiled, his gaze gradually drifted away, and he said leisurely: "In his later life, there was a brother of the same generation, named Lu Qinian, more than 20 years ago, he ran an errand in the south of the Yangtze River, one day, he crossed the river by boat with his wife, and met a water thief——"

Luo Fuzi's eyes flashed slightly, and he seemed to say meaningfully: "In the clear land of the Haiyan River, there are water thieves, and the old man has heard of it for the first time. ”

"There are no wonders in the world, there are still outlaws at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the water thieves in the south of the Yangtze River, it is not too out of line," Lu Yannian continued: "The water thieves hijacked the ship, and it happened that Lord Meng was passing through here, repelling the thieves, saving a boatload of innocent people, and finally escorting my brother and his wife back to Beijing, and finally it was safe and sound. ”

"The dignified Jinyi Guard commanded the deignt escort of your clan brother back to Beijing, I didn't expect Lord Meng to be so leisurely." Luo Fuzi's tone was inexplicable, as if he was sarcastic, but a little surprise flashed in his eyes.

Lu Yannian smiled and said nothing.
