The blue clothes, the long ink-colored hair, were pulled up like a waterfall, revealing a snow-white and delicate neck.

The white, slender palm slowly lifted.

A faint aroma wafted in the air, gently blowing with the wind, driving bursts of orchid fragrance, which made people intoxicated. Float like a fairy.

Is this what she really looks like?

In the bronze mirror, looking at this beautiful face, it is comparable to the posture of the country, and it is also the first time in three years that she has appeared with this face.

"Sir!"

The little boy behind him stared, looking at the person in front of him, surprised.

Lu Zhaoyi turned his head, his eyes were cold, "What's wrong?" ”

Her gaze was cold and sharp, like the depths of a thousand-year-old cold pool, slightly chilly, but when she saw Xiao Tong's face clearly, her eyes suddenly changed, with a little warmth and softness, as if Fang Cai's sharp gaze was just an illusion.

The little boy was stunned, and hurriedly bowed his head and apologized, and he didn't know what to call for a while.

"Xiaoman, don't panic, just call it the past day." Lu Zhaoyi's eyes darkened, and he said with a chuckle.

Xiao Man, who was stunned for a long time, regained his demeanor and gave a few courtesies, "Sir, Yuan Zuoxiang came to visit and said that he had something important to discuss with Mr. ”

In the past three years, Lu Zhaoyi has dressed as a man, solved problems for Wu Gong, and specialized in strategy. Now that the new dynasty has been decided, it has been a month since the new emperor ascended to the pole, and she only came to Luojing from Yedu today.

And Yuan Qi, the left minister, is an upright person, although he is usually good at calculation, but he is also the person she trusts very much, and he is also the only person who knows her true identity.

Since the establishment of the Dayuan Dynasty in January, it is this Yuan Xiang who has been busy in the court.

It is true that Yuan Qi came to visit, so why did she not see it? Thinking of this, Lu Zhaoyi waved his skirt and headed towards the front hall.

In the front hall, Yuan Qi, who was dressed in a red robe, was sitting in a precarious position, and if others saw it, they would be surprised that this left-hand minister in a high position was actually a young man.

"I haven't seen you for a few months, Brother Yuan has become the minister of the Great Yuan Humerus, under one person, it's amazing."

Before anyone arrives, the sound comes first.

As soon as Yuan Qi heard this, his face was immediately filled with a bright smile, and he turned his head to look at the source of the sound again and again.

"Miss Lu praised falsely, and Yuan didn't dare to be ashamed." Yuan Qi stood up to greet him, "If the world knows that the world's most trusted military advisor Gou Chenzi is actually a daughter, it will definitely shock the world." ”

Lu Zhaoyi smiled and was noncommittal.

Three years ago, after unifying the north, in order to end the troubled times of the Five Kingdoms as soon as possible, Wu Gong personally saluted Corporal Xian, and asked for the help of Gou Chenzi, who was rumored to have a talent through the sky, to go out of the mountain, but at first sight, he found that Gou Chenzi was actually a woman.

At that time, Lu Zhaoyi was only seventeen years old, and he was already well-versed in ancient and modern times, and he was good at strategy, even if he was a person like Wu Gong, he struggled for a long time to accept this reality.

In order to avoid her identity being leaked and questioned by the people of the world, thus making the court unstable, Wu Gong hid her in Lutai, so that the whole world, people who know Gou Chenzi's true appearance can be counted with just one hand.

Until a few months ago, Wu Gongxue died, and the only person who could protect her was no longer there, and Xia Pei inherited and forced the last emperor Chan to inherit the throne, and the new emperor, who did not know the truth, naturally asked her to come out of the mountain again, turn the tide, and stabilize people's hearts.

The situation is like this, she has no choice, she can only travel thousands of miles from Yedu, and she must stand in front of the stage.

After the two talked, what Yuan Qi explained also came from this.

Although the new emperor Xia Pei knew that Gou Chenzi was determined to fade out of the government and the opposition, but now in the court, the factions of the five countries were also in the middle of the Dayuan Dynasty, and they were in important positions, and only she could deter them.

After hearing this, Lu Zhaoyi was unhurried and put down the teacup, "I am Gou Chenzi, except for Wu Gong, you are the only person in the world who knows." In the future, I will not use this identity very much. ”

As she spoke, she thought about it, raised her head and looked at Yuan Qi, and chuckled: "Tomorrow morning, you ask Your Majesty to play, Gou Chenzi is old and has difficulty moving, I am afraid that I will not be able to serve as an official in the court, and there is an apprentice under his knees, who is the daughter of the Lu family in Yedu, and has won the inheritance of Mr. ”

Yuan Qi nodded, his expression solemn, "Although this method is wonderful, it not only retains your identity, but also shares your worries for Your Majesty, killing two birds with one stone, but Lu Chengye is still in the court, you ......"

As soon as he mentioned this person, Lu Zhaoyi's face changed greatly, and he immediately interrupted him and stopped talking.

Or knowing her relationship with the Lu family, Yuan Qi sighed and prepared to leave, but before leaving, he still explained, "There must be an end to the matter between you and the Lu family, and you can't hide it." ”

With that, he bowed and left.

After being in a trance for a long time, Lu Zhaoyi noticed that Xiao Man in the corner was trembling, so she eased up a little and gently called his name.

"What do you command?"

"From today on, in front of outsiders, you can call me Qi Niang."

She is ranked seventh in the Lu family, and the family is called Qi Niang, and when she mentions it again, she seems to have a plan in her heart.

The world doesn't know Gou Chenzi, but you must know Xiaoman, in the past three years, Xiaoman has played the role of delivering a message, thus, down to the local officials, up to the prince, is very familiar with him, for which he has also been attracted by some forces.

If Lu Zhaoyi shows up and shows up with him, it also means that she Lu Zhaoyi is the representative of Gou Chenzi.

"Xiaoman, pack up. After lunch, go back to Lu's house with me. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Man trembled and saluted, "Then, the courtyard here is vacant, and the days are long, isn't it suspicious of outsiders, is Mr. really in the capital?" ”

At a young age, he was able to think of this truth, which shows that he has been deaf and blind for three years, but he has also been deeply instructed.

Lu Zhaoyi smiled lightly, "It's okay, this matter will be handed over to Yuan Xiang." ”

After lunch, the two walked out of the back door of Gouchen's courtyard, got into a carriage, and went out of the city.

……

Nanyang Hou Mansion on the outskirts of Beijing is the current residence of the Lu family.

Lu Chengye, the son of the Lu family, was once Xia Pei, the son of Duke Wu, and his disciple because of his meritorious service and outstanding military achievements.

And after Xia Pei seized the throne, he was named the Marquis of Nanyang, and the official residence was still in the book, holding real power.

The carriage approached the gate of the Hou Mansion, Lu Zhaoyi jumped out of the carriage, raised his feet and stepped in, and Xiao Man followed behind.

Regardless of the obstruction of the miscellaneous servants in the house, as soon as she stepped into the lobby, she saw the Lu family, Lu Chengren, Lu Chengzhi, Lu Chengyi and others were already there, but they were all sitting at the bottom and did not stand.

And they all had serious expressions, as if something big was about to happen.

When the Lu family saw Lu Zhaoyi, they were all taken aback, and Lu Chengyi's expression curled slightly, "Seventh sister, why did you come back suddenly?" ”

At this time, the middle-aged man on the main seat spoke: "Xiao Qi, you are finally willing to come back." ”

Lu Zhaoyi glanced at everyone, and finally stopped his gaze on the middle-aged man on the main seat, his face did not change, and he walked straight to the side of the main seat

"The eldest brother is so majestic, I haven't seen him for three years, he is already the minister of the second rank of the dynasty, and he is the closest to the position of the third prince, I don't know if I am still used to sitting?"

This middle-aged man is none other than Lu Chengye.

And Song Ying, who was sitting next to him, the head mother of the Lu family, was angry at the moment and couldn't hold back any longer.

"Lu Qiniang, you evil obstacle, you kicked you out of the house at the beginning, and now you are embarrassed to run back?"

Lu Zhaoyi snorted coldly, "Sister-in-law, please be careful, if it weren't for Qi Niang being ordered to go back to the house, otherwise I would want to come back?" ”

"On orders? On whose orders? ”

The men of the Lu family looked at Lu Zhaoyi with wide eyes one by one, as if they were confirming some news.

At this time, Xiao Man was still outside the door, coughing a few times, he had already attracted the attention of a seat, just like the previous rehearsal, he cleared his throat, "Gu Man has seen Lu Shangshu and Mrs. Lu." ”

As soon as he saw Xiaoman, Lu Chengye suddenly stared, eager to kneel down and go over to greet him, and was even willing to curry favor with this ten-year-old child at all costs.

If he can please Gu Man and say a few kind words in Gou Chenzi's ear, his official career will definitely be more long-term.

But Xiao Man didn't look at him, his expression was indifferent, "Mr. said that from today on, his only apprentice, Lu Qiniang, will return to the Lu family to live temporarily, and I wish Nanyang Hou a good life to take care of him." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the hall was silent.
