After the prince finished sending the gold and silver, he expressed his condolences, and left first after not staying long.

After all, as we all know, this Marquis of Zhengyang is the person of King Yuan!

Even if he came by order, he stayed here for a long time, and it was inevitable that people would criticize him for forming a party for personal gain.

So, he had to avoid suspicion.

After three rounds of drinking, it was already dusk.

King Yuan also left in a hurry, and only Lu Xu's father and son were left in the entire Lu Mansion courtyard for a while.

Lu Xu raised his wine glass, looked left and right, and couldn't help but admire: "It is worthy of being a good wine transported from Huainan, it is strong enough." ”

"If I drink this wine on the battlefield, I can still take the head of the enemy general once in the army."

Lu Shuang didn't even look at his boasting father, but was sullen.

Why are His Royal Highness King Yuan and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here?

What is this signal?

Where will the Lu family go in the future?

If he didn't understand these questions, he was itching.

And Lu Xu, seeing that Lu Shuang didn't respond to him, squinted his eyes, and deliberately amplified his voice: "I'll just say, Your Majesty still understands old ministers like me!" ”

"Not only is Your Majesty considerate, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and King Yuan also worship veterans like me, who are both cultured and brave."

"Why is that?"

Lu Xu looked at Lu Shuang directly, hoping that he could give an answer.

However, after waiting for a while, nothing was found.

Lu Xu was not annoyed, he still smiled, took a sip of wine, and said, "It's all the credit of the Lu Family's Education Heart Sutra!" ”

"This book, the ancestors really made it up well!"

"What's so good? Listen to what I tell you. ”

When Lu Shuang heard this, he finally reacted.

I saw that his body stiffened, and then he suddenly fell to the ground, and suddenly convulsed.

Bang!

The glass fell to the ground with a crunching sound.

Lu Xu stood up suddenly, quite a little masterless.

He is such a son, and over the years, he has always recited the Lu Family Education Heart Sutra because he really thinks this book is useful and can teach Lu Shuangcheng to become a talent.

But now... Why do you suddenly have epilepsy now?

"Son, don't scare Dad!"

"If you have three long and two short, how will your father live!"

Hearing this, Lu Shuang on the ground slowed down the frequency of convulsions a little, and said intermittently: "Dad... Dad, I... I have a headache... It hurts terribly. ”

"I'm afraid I have to rest first... Take a break and can't... Can't listen... My father's teachings..."

"It's easy to say, when you want to hear this Heart Sutra, I will tell it to you as a father, and your body matters! Your body is important! ”

"What are you still doing? Why don't you hurry up and carry the young master back to the room to rest? ”

Seeing that Lu Xu was angry, the housekeeper servants naturally didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly picked up Lu Shuang and put it on the bed in the wing room.

After everyone left, Lu Shuang, who had been convulsing, got back to life, and looked out the window with palpitations.

"Is my son better? Why don't you go in and accompany you for your father? Don't worry, I've already called someone to call a famous doctor, you just have to wait. ”

When Lu Shuang heard this, he immediately fell to the ground and convulsed again.

Even the corners of his mouth cracked, and he couldn't wait to spit out a few mouthfuls of white foam.

The staccato voice came again, and the person who spoke seemed to be very difficult: "Labor... I'm tired of my father... Care, son... The son is fine, only... It's good to rest for a while..."

……

Qiandu West Street, Zhengde Fang, Gu Mansion.

Main Hall.

Gu Beichuan and Li Dongbi looked serious, just because a distinguished guest came today.

The first person in the Qiandu literary circle, the son of the country to supervise the sacrificial wine - Hu Yan!

"Hu family came to the door on purpose, what are you doing?" Gu Beichuan asked while instructing Zheng Jian to pour tea.

Hu Yan picked up the poured tea, took two sips, and after savoring it carefully, he praised: "Not bad, good tea." ”

Although Hu Yan is not from a wealthy family, he has now become a high position with what he has learned.

On weekdays, it is also a high-end venue in the Daqian literary circle.

The tea he drank was naturally not ordinary, and he was able to praise him, which was enough to show the quality of Gufu tea, and it was also enough to show that Zheng Jian was careful when he bought tea.

Of course, Zheng Jian is just a rough person, and he probably can't see these people.

He only felt that Hu Yan didn't spit out the tea leaves, and he was much better than the previous guest.

He's a good guy!

"I came to the door today, I was entrusted by Wei Xiang to ask Gu Gongzi in person what his future plans are."

Gu Beichuan's mind was racing, but he was silent, and said with a smile: "I am a master craftsman, what can I plan, it is nothing more than to work hard and make some good farm tools for the imperial court." ”

When Hu Yan heard this, he shook his head: "With Gu Gongzi's great talent, he only makes some farm tools, which is inevitably a bit overkill." ”

"Besides......" He paused, and then lowered his voice: "Above the court, there are many treacherous clouds, there are many parties, and there is always the power of overthrow, but I am afraid that it is not the best policy." ”

When Gu Beichuan heard this, he was a little silent.

Seeing that he was silent, Hu Yan had no choice but to open the skylight and speak brightly.

"On the side of the family faction, because of the water control strategy and one million silver taels that Gu Gongzi offered this time, he already hates Gu Gongzi."

"As for the military generals, not to mention that Gu Gongzi is a civil official, there has been no tradition of messing with military generals throughout the ages."

"Even if there is, I'm afraid they won't accept you."

"I have inquired clearly, Your Majesty went to Huainan with the identity of Zhengyang Marquis, so Gu Gongzi mistook it for Zhengyang Marquis, and did business in the name of Zhengyang Marquis in Qiandu."

"As a result, this silver was earned, but it severely tricked His Royal Highness King Yuan and Marquis Zhengyang once."

"They don't say they will retaliate against you, but I'm afraid they don't have a good impression of you."

When Gu Beichuan heard this, his brows furrowed slightly.

The other party has said everything to this point, as long as he is not a fool, he should be able to understand.

"It seems that I have only one way, Qingliu."

"It's just that my family wealth is inevitably criticized."

"What did Gu Gongzi say, this time you can take out a million taels of silver to rebuild the building ship for the imperial court, which has already proved your quality of serving the public and the country."

"Even if you have some money at home, so what?"

"We are a clean stream, and we don't hate the rich."

When Gu Beichuan heard this, he smiled and said, "Then, thank you for the introduction!" ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, Wei Gong likes you very much when he wants to come. I am also honored to introduce young talents like you. ”

The two looked at each other and laughed.

In this way, Gu Beichuan was considered to have gotten into Qingliu's car, and he was also tied to the same boat with His Royal Highness the Prince.

This matter of seizing the heir has always been troublesome.

Gu Beichuan didn't want to participate, but since the Canglan flood incident, the prince and the family faction have become increasingly estranged, but they have become more and more dependent on Qingliu.

This... The situation is stronger than the people!

Gu Beichuan was most afraid of getting involved in the whirlpool of troubles before, but now, since he is already in the whirlpool, he naturally has to change his attitude and live a more positive life.

After all, if you put the crown prince on the throne and read their feelings and contributions, you can at least mix the glory and wealth of the second half of your life.

But if King Yuan is allowed to ascend the throne, I really don't know what the situation is.

So... How to choose, Gu Beichuan has a certain number in his heart.
