Chapter 14: Children Make Choices
When I first entered Luoyang, the eastern capital, there were only a handful of people who knew my name.
In the big house, except for Lu Yao and Master Dog, I could see the stunned in their eyes from the blank eyes of the others who looked at me.
The reason why they were stunned, I know it wasn't because of me.
The reason for this is the boy who is by my side.
A prince and grandson of the fallen princes of the Wei Kingdom with nine young Jiao on his body, who was originally supposed to stay in the Jing Kingdom as a proton, but now seeks to solve the disaster in Taoliu Lane, Luoyang.
The three of us weren't really eye-catching in a crowd of young people in fancy clothes, so it was easy not to go unnoticed.
Right now, everyone's eyes are focused on the position where I am standing, and Lu Yao is also recognized by many Luoyang scholars present.
Suddenly, the sound came and went, endlessly.
"The person who just recited the poem Shui Yunjian turned out to be a talented man under Lu Yao."
Among the people present, there were still many people who didn't know their names, and asked with a puzzled face: "Which Lu Yao?" ”
"Which other Lu Yao could it be, that is the Wei Kingdom proton who is riddled with nine dragons...... A young man who seeks to crack the body of doom all the way from Jingguo! ”
"Taoliu Lane, the ...... who won't live to be twenty years old"
As the chatting deepened, some teenagers who didn't know the ins and outs suddenly became stunned.
In the big house, as the eyes of the prince gradually became cold, the atmosphere of the scene became strange, and the condensation was so condensed that many princes who looked at the prince did not dare to speak again.
Wang Gongwang was robbed of the limelight by me, although it was not easy to see any anger on his face, but the eyes that wanted to get rid of me quickly were seen from the corner of my eye.
Su Boyong saw that the atmosphere in the audience was a little embarrassing, so he hurriedly put down the wolf in his hand and bowed to us.
According to the ancestral system of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the descendants of the princes of Wei are the emperor's family, and those who have no merit should bow their hands, and ordinary people should bow to the ground.
Out of politeness, Su Boyong only bowed and did not flatter him.
The other scholars were hindered by Wang Gongwang's murderous eyes, and out of some concerns, they stood like statues of living people, and they didn't even dare to make the slightest sound of breathing.
For a while, the atmosphere in the field condensed to the extreme.
What broke this embarrassment was Wang Gongwang, who suddenly had a smile on his face.
His face was pale, his lips were slightly pursed, and he bowed his hand to Lu Yao, but he did not bend down and salute like Su Boyong.
For example, Wang Gongwang is such a high-minded and arrogant and boundless family, I am afraid that he has never bent down when he has grown up with a golden spoon.
What's more, at this moment, the prince and grandson of the princes of Wei State in front of him is still a proton, not the only person who holds real power and inherits the title of prince in the future.
Paying tribute to Lu Yao, a nominal prince and grandson, it is estimated that he will feel that he will lose his noble status as the prince of the god general's mansion.
"It's rare for Brother Lu to come to this land of wind and moon for recreation, isn't it also the name of the girl who is staring at the eyes, and wants to see her beautiful face?"
Wang Gongwang didn't smile, his purpose tonight was to make a name for himself, and secondly, he wanted to hug the beauty and take Feng Xuan's gaze into his arms.
The reason why Wang Gongwang asked Lu Yao about the purpose of coming to the big house tonight was obviously to probe his tone.
It's just that when Wang Gongwang spoke, the arrogance in his bones was condescending, obviously with a tone that was not allowed to contradict it, and he really couldn't raise the insipid mood that people faced with it.
To my great surprise, even shock, Lu Yao's answer was not only more unassailable than Wang Gongwang's, but also arrogant enough to ignore everything.
"Children make choices, I don't come alone for Feng Xuan's gaze, I want all the nobles in the big house tonight...... Don't talk about the nobles here, even if it's a female mosquito, I don't plan to let it go! ”
Hearing this, the dog who was pouring wine into his mouth was also frightened, and he almost didn't choke on a mouthful of spirits.
After coughing a few times, the dog master looked at Lu Yao, who was calm and relaxed, not knowing whether to brag or prepare to act recklessly.
When I heard Lu Yao's big breath, I was even more stunned that my cheek muscles instantly stiffened and became expressionless.
The person who suddenly felt embarrassed was Su Boyong, who was writing down the details of tonight, and was hesitant to decide whether to put pen to paper at the moment!
At this moment, he was hesitating whether to compile and improve the list of talents in the wolf's smoke.
At this time, his eyebrows were in a line, his sword eyebrows were furrowed, his eyes were slightly at a loss, and his face was difficult.
He complained to others about his situation tonight, but he was afraid that he would be laughed at and generous by others.
As for the other ladies in the field, they were expressionless one by one.
Not to mention how much financial resources it takes for the nobles to charter the entire house, what kind of physique does it take to take forty nobles into their arms at the same time in one breath so that they don't die of exhaustion?
People in the world often say that thirty is like a wolf, forty is like a tiger, such an amazing move is the rampant flower thief Meng Lang, and there is no rumor of such a tiger fighting a group of wolves.
At this time, everyone couldn't help but speculate, could it be that the unworthy King of Wei in front of him knew that his limit was approaching, and he was ready to break the jar to fulfill his long-cherished wish before death?
Because of the fat powder on the face of the red-clothed bustard, the whole face was stretched together, and the wrinkles that were covered under the thick fat powder, layer by layer, were frozen on the face that couldn't cry or laugh, and raised her eyes to look between Wang Gongwang and Lu Yao, in addition to embarrassment, there was still embarrassment in her expression!
Seeing that Lu Yao didn't seem to be joking, the red-clothed bustard girl was so anxious that she was sweating profusely, and her eyebrows were frowning at the prince in front of her, her eyes full of fear and shame.
Not to mention that all the carefully choreographed things tonight fell short, and after receiving so many benefits from the prince's hope, in the end he reluctantly spit out all the amount, and this feeling was even more uncomfortable than swallowing a fly.
The most delighted are the nobles who performed on stage tonight.
People such as Feng Xuan Ningyan and Liu Hanyan have been adrift with the flower boat cruise ship since they were implicated by the family as official prostitutes.
They are the playthings of the nobles of the world to vent their desires, and if they have the opportunity to meet the rich man with a good heart, it is not impossible to get out of the sea of red dust and suffering.
"You want so many nobles alone, can you afford it?" It can be seen that Wang Gongwang is suppressing the anger in his heart.
Facing Lu Yao, who was fearless and did not lower his eyebrows, Wang Gongwang's eyes gradually changed from the slaughter just now to helpless unwillingness.
Lu Yao pretended to fan the folding fan in his hand, and finally showed his intention tonight: "It's not that I want to find the unhappiness of the prince and you, it's really the spring heart of the pockmarked young man who guards filial piety on the bank of the Luo River...... He didn't reveal to me his specific preferences for women, so I had to make a decision! ”
As soon as Lu Yao's words came out, I understood the real purpose of his disruptive poetry meeting tonight.
This move is really ruthless enough, not only messing up the pockmarked boy's filial piety, but also causing trouble to the east, turning all the troubles to the pockmarked boy who guards filial piety on the other side of the Luo River.
The prince who is bound to compare his eyes may not dare to find Lu Yao's unhappiness, but he definitely has the courage to sprinkle all his grievances tonight on the pockmarked boy.
After the dog master understood Lu Yao's methods, he hugged the wine gourd and shook his drowsy head without tears, and sighed helplessly: "After tonight, there will be no peace in Luoyang from now on!" ”
