"Since Mr. Shangguan likes to get straight to the point, then Ben Gongzi will not hide it."

After saying that, Lu Hanjiang raised his hand and beckoned outside, Kuai Baihu walked in silently, and he bent down to present an embroidered spring knife.

picked up the knife and put it on the side of the tea case, Lu Hanjiang said: "This son is the commander of the envoy, all the affairs of the Eastern Capital can be decided by me, with this knife as proof, is there any doubt about Mr." ”

The embroidered spring knife is not a treasure that is cherished, after all, the brocade guard is a hand from top to bottom, and it plays more of a symbol of status.

Jinyiwei has their backs to the imperial court, and their manpower and material resources are extremely sufficient, but even so, with their size, it is still a little powerless to monitor half of the court and then monitor the entire rivers and lakes.

Therefore, Jinyiwei often recruits some Jianghu people for their own use, this group of people is not on the roster, it is a group of thugs privately raised by Jinyiwei, although they are all doing things for Jinyiwei, but compared to the brothers in the yamen, these people will not be awarded the iconic embroidered spring knife.

The embroidered spring knife is a sign to distinguish oneself from outsiders, such as the one who should be innocent, has been appreciated by the boss, and the person who officially has the official body is his own person.

In contrast, although Yue Lifeng and Jinyi Wei had a close relationship before, the people on the rivers and lakes never thought so, and there were not a few people who spoke ill of him and even killed him directly.

The difference is in this embroidered spring knife, or in other words, in this official, later Yue Lifeng was able to exist as an intermediary between the court and the rivers and lakes, and it was also because of this.

Yue Lifeng has never been granted the official status of the imperial court, and he also uses the heavenly machine of the Xiaoyao faction instead of the embroidered spring knife, which also gives an unwritten explanation to everyone in the rivers and lakes, that is, this person is still a person in the rivers and lakes and has not entered the officialdom.

At this time, Lu Hanjiang took out the embroidered spring knife, which was considered a thorough and sincere performance, and Shangguan Shaoqin's eyes inevitably flashed a little surprise.

"It seems that Yue Shaoxia's status in Jinyiwei is expected to be higher in the next, oops, it seems that this time the tea in the lower part will not be kept, and it will be broken." Shangguan Shaoqin smiled and shook his head.

Lu Hanjiang raised his eyebrows and said, "What, could it be that Mr. was polite to me just now?" ”

"Of course not." Shangguan Shaoqin denied it seriously, and then the two looked at each other and smiled.

"It's come to this point, and my son will say it directly."

Lu Hanjiang stretched out two fingers: "Two questions, one public and one private, first, how did Mr. Shangguan persuade Qiu Tongzhi to speak for you, or rather, at what price did Mr. Meng impress Lord Meng to open the door for you?" ”

"This kind of thing, why don't you ask the two adults directly. Also, the whereabouts of the two adults are unknown now, which is indeed a problem. ”

Shangguan Shaoqin said distressedly: "Presumably, the answer to this question is not only you, Yue Shaoxia, but even the Lu Commander behind you is also very interested." ”

Lu Hanjiang chuckled silently, his attitude was ambiguous, Shangguan Shaoqin saw this, just groaned a little and then said: "When today's etiquette law has a lot of constraints on women, does Yue Shaoxia know the difference between this family woman and a woman in the rivers and lakes?" ”

This seems to be an unrelated question, and after Lu Hanjiang heard it, he just smiled and said, "What's the difference, please give me advice." ”

Shangguan Shaoqin said: "There are many things in the world, men do it, women can't do it, for example, the learned and knowledgeable master is easy to find, but Shaoxia has seen how many people are willing to accept a woman as a disciple?" ”

Lu Hanjiang bowed his head and said: "It's really rare, it's about women's reputation, and most of them are taught by their elders from home, or simply ask a female gentleman Mr. Shangguan to suddenly talk about this." ”

"I don't mean anything else, but I don't know if Yue Shaoxia has heard that the teacher under him also accepted a woman as a disciple in the land of Jiangnan." Shangguan Shaoqin said meaningfully.

Lu Hanjiang knew it well, but he still had interest in his eyes, and took the initiative to ask: "There is such a thing, I don't know which girl is so lucky to be able to worship under the door of the great Ru Luozi." ”

Shangguan Shaoqin smiled: "This woman was born in Jiangnan, and she is also from a big family, but her family is deeply involved in the rivers and lakes. ”

"Mr. is talking about the Jiangnan Huangfu family?" Lu Hanjiang said thoughtfully: "Old Master Luo has been away from Jiangnan for some years, and according to time, the only one who can worship the Huangfu family under him must be the only one." ”

"It's the second lady of the Huangfu family." Shangguan Shaoqin said.

Lu Hanjiang sighed: "Sir, don't you know that the second lady in your mouth is now Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess of the imperial court, you are screaming so loudly, you want to trap me in injustice." ”

Shangguan Shaoqin said helplessly: "Yue Shaoxia, Ming people don't say secret words, in the land of Jinyiwei, why do you bother." ”

"Oh, get used to it."

Lu Hanjiang tilted his head, and then said, "In this way, not only do you have half a friendship with Commander Lu, but you also go out of the same house with Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess." ”

"If you count it from the teacher's side, Lord Lu and His Royal Highness can also be regarded as the same door, but it doesn't make any sense to do so," Shangguan Beicang shrugged his shoulders and said, "I started earlier than His Highness, so it's not too much to shout a senior sister here." ”

"So, you have an old relationship with Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess, is this why Lord Qiu accepted your 'bribe' in the first place?" To be honest, if this is the case, then Lu Hanjiang will be a little disappointed.

Because if this is the case, then I am afraid that Qiu Qingyun is looking at Luo Yuanjing's face, not because of Huangfu Ling'er, who has not been canonized as the crown princess at that time.

"Sort of."

Shangguan Shaoqin smiled slightly, he said: "Huangfu is one of the three major families in the rivers and lakes, and his name is extremely good in the land south of the Yangtze River and even in the entire rivers and lakes. ”

"Really?"

Hearing this, Lu Hanjiang finally became interested, the Shangguan family's martial arts are average, it is understandable to find a strong backer, the Huangfu family is in the south of the Yangtze River, and the reputation and martial arts are first-class in the world, which is the most suitable.

At that time, as one of the three major families, Huangfu not only supported the Shangguan family, they had friendships with many Jianghu forces.

What interests Lu Hanjiang is that the Huangfu family has provided help, and the Shangguan family will return to them, thinking about it carefully, there is nothing else except gold and silver treasures.

Then this is very interesting, although the Huangfu family disappeared from the rivers and lakes, it was not as dusty as the Oriental family, they were just arranged by the crown princess, from light to dark.

The size of the Huangfu family is there, even if a part of it is hidden, but after all those properties are abandoned on the surface, it is not easy to feed such a large group of people with the title of a crown princess alone.

The Xuantian Sect, which is far away in the north, is already good at being self-sufficient, it is not a help at all, and this is a lot of extra expenses out of thin air, how did the crown princess make something out of nothing, Lu Hanjiang has always been curious.

At first, he thought that Huangfu's hundred years of accumulation would not be a problem for the other party to squander for a few years, but Shangguan Shaoqin's words seemed to give him a different answer.

No, that's already explicit.
