Chapter 54: Sudden News and Kiss Lu An was furious
In nearly a month, Lu Yuyan completely mastered the technique of pushing oil.
The essential oil business gradually flourished, and in addition to making money, the relationship between Lu An and her became more and more harmonious.
As soon as he sent away the new batch of essential oils, Lu An returned to the hall on the first floor of the Light Smoke Pavilion.
Fortunately, during this time, the Lord of Phantom Cloud County has become more and more lenient in his control, allowing him to have enough leisure time to busy with his business.
However, he was a principled man.
I didn't redeem the deed of sale for a day, and I was still the top brand of the Light Smoke Pavilion for a day, and I couldn't leave my job behind.
It's just that what makes him feel inexplicable is that there seem to be a lot fewer guests in the past two days......
You must know that since the Mid-Autumn Festival Night Banquet and the two incidents of the Turkic Mission, the Light Smoke Pavilion has become famous, and it is like a cloud of guests every day.
But todayβ
Looking at the empty hall, there were only a few guests, and even the old bustard Wu's mother didn't look good.
"Lingfeng, what's going on, why are there so few guests?"
Mu Lingfeng shook his head heartlessly, "Who knows, maybe the weather is cold, and the guests don't want to come out."
Besides, business here is not good, do you need to care? β
Lu An shook his head, he really wasn't interested in caring about these things.
In short, just don't affect the business of essential oils and Duxiufang.
"An Shaoβ"
Yue'er and Ruoxi, the two girls, had just sent off the guests and ran to him.
"An Shao, the guest I served just now was the second son of the Hubu squire, and I heard him say that it seems that the imperial court is going to fight with the Turks, and the capital is panicking, so we have a lot fewer guests here."
"Yes, An Shao, the guest I was waiting for just now also said the same, if there is a real fight with the Turks, everyone will have a hard time, how can they be in the mood to come to us to be happy?"
"The Turkic mission has just left our Great Xia for about a month, and it is really barbaric to turn around and send troops to invade!"
Lu An waved his hand and said with a smile, "Fighting is a matter for the imperial court, so we don't need to worry."
What's more, isn't Jing'anhou the god of war in Great Xia?
With him, no matter how strong the Turks are, they can't make any big waves. β
"Yo, Elder Sun is here, please hurry, please hurry."
Seeing Sun Zhaohui enter the door, Lu An hurriedly pulled him to the corner and sat down.
Xiao Qingzi put on the wine utensils in time.
Seeing that Sun Zhaohui looked tired, Lu An asked with concern, "Old Sun seems to have something on his mind?" β
"Alas! I'm bored, so I'll sit with you and talk for a while. β
"Could it be that Sun Lao is for the invasion of the Turkic army?"
Sun Zhaohui raised his eyebrows, "You kid is quite well-informed, did you hear about this morning's incident?" β
Lu An smiled, "We are here in Qinglou, there are all kinds of guests, and the news is naturally well-informed." β
"Well, that's a good thing, alas!" Sun Zhaohui nodded, picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
At this moment, I saw the Lord of Phantom Cloud wearing a red cloak and a personal maid walking in in a hurry.
"County Lord, you're here." Wu's mother hurriedly greeted her.
However, the Lord of Phantom Cloud had a gloomy face, and he didn't stop a step, and while walking upstairs, he commanded, "Prepare two pots of wine and bring them to the light dust room, and then call Xifeng up!" β
Mother Wu had never seen such a serious expression from the county lord, so she answered and hurried to work.
After a while, in the dusty room on the second floor, there was a burst of heart-wrenching music, as well as Xifeng's unique rough and heroic voice.
In the hall that was already empty, the guests pricked up their ears one after another, even Sun Zhaohui was no exception, closing his eyes and admiring while rhythmically beating the beat.
Xifeng was just halfway through singing, and when he saw Lei Jin suddenly break in, Lu An subconsciously shrank down.
This guy obviously doesn't like Lu An, as long as they meet, they will definitely think of Fa'er to embarrass him.
Lu An didn't want to have nothing to do.
However, after Lei Jin came this time, he went directly to the second floor, which made Lu An have a false alarm.
Outside the light dust room, Qiao'er, the maid brought by the Lord of Phantom Cloud, stopped him directly.
"I'm sorry, little marquis, the county lord has ordered, no one is allowed to disturb, please go back."
Lei Jin didn't force his way in, he just stood outside the door and shouted, "Phantom Cloud, listen to me!" β
"No matter what, I won't let you marry the Turks!"
"As long as I have thunder for a day, even if I give up this life, I will give up my life to give you a death to your majesty."
In the room, the music stopped for a moment, and soon it started again.
In the hall, the guests were frightened by Lei Jin's loud voice.
Lu An, who was in the corner, was stunned all of a sudden!
Seeing Lei Jin disappearing, Lu An asked with a solemn gaze, "Old Sun, what the little marquis said just now...... The county lord marries to the Turks?! β
Sun Zhaohui's expression froze, and then he sighed, "Yes! β
"This morning, the imperial court received news that the Turkic army of 100,000 invaded, and more than ten cities in Shengzhou in the north fell, and now the enemy army is also in Suizhou, and the battle situation is critical."
"It turned out that the Marquis of Jing'an had decided to personally dress up to face the war, and the Turkic Khan suddenly sent a letter, proposing that as long as the imperial court paid some money every year and let the lord of Huanyun go to the Turks and relatives, the war could be avoided at any time."
"For this reason, after a fierce debate, the imperial court finally decided to accept the policy of peace and proximity."
"Jing'an Hou spattered the hall with blood for this and left gloomily......"
Bang β
When Lu An heard this, he smashed his fist on the table and got up suddenly, startling Sun Zhaohui.
"Xiao Anzi, you ......"
saw Lu An's face cold, and a sneer squeezed out between his teeth, "Harmony?!" Hum! β
In the last life, I saw these two words in the history books more than once.
At that time, when I was studying, I only regarded these two words as a symbol.
But in fact, he fully understood the meaning behind these two words.
That is the mark of humiliation that the Central Plains nation cannot erase one by one!
Since the Han Dynasty, it has been the first to make peace with relatives, until the Qing Dynasty and more than 70 relatives, reaching its peak.
Worry, Zhaojun, Jin Cheng......
Whenever there is a hardship on the border, someone will prescribe a good prescription for harmony to fill the insatiable desires of the alien race!
Two lives, the way of life to protect one's life, Lu An asked himself more clearly than anyone else.
However, hearing the word "harmony" instantly pierced the most sensitive nerve in his heart!
Looking up at the closed door on the second floor, Lu An only felt his blood boiling.
"An Shao!"
Seeing Lu An go straight to the second floor, Mu Lingfeng called out and hurriedly chased after him.
Facing Lu An, the maid Qiao'er's attitude was not so good.
"The county lord has not ordered, not to approach!"
"Get out!" Lu An let out a deep sigh and forcibly pushed the door open.
"Bold!" Qiao'er was angry, and stretched out her hand to stop it, but was directly blocked by Mu Lingfeng.
In the room, seeing Lu An suddenly breaking in, Qingchen who was caressing the qin immediately stopped, and Xifeng also looked at him in a daze.
The Lord of Phantom Cloud was full of redness, obviously drank a lot of wine, fell crooked beside the piano platform, squinted at it, and blurted out, "Get out!" β
However, Lu An was unusual, strode to the front, squatted down, and his face was grim.
"You promised to kiss?"
"Huh!" The Illusory Cloud County Lord smiled wryly, "Nominally, the county lord has a noble status, but from the moment he was born, the future of this county lord is involuntary!"
The court ordered me to be with my relatives, what can I do! β
"Won't you resist!"
Lu An roared, "Great Xia is a great country, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and countless soldiers, do you want to tie the safety of the whole country to you as a woman!" β
"The princes of the court, are they all unseeded eggs!"
Inside and outside the room, there was silence.
The four women, Lord Huanyun, Qingchen, Xifeng, Mu Lingfeng and Qiao'er, looked at the angry Lu An in a daze.
After a while, the Illusory Cloud County Lord shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Lu An, you are just a Qinglou Priest, these are not what you should ask, let's go!" β
"Not bad!"
"Lu is indeed a cheap slave."
"But at least it's still a man!"
"With me Lu An for a day, I will never watch you go to Turkic and kiss!"
The Phantom Cloud County Lord chuckled, "It's up to you?" β
Before the words could be uttered, Lu An had already gotten up and walked out, "The county lord can wait and see!" β
"County Lord, Mr. Lu, he ...... Maybe there's a way to help you? Seeing the back of Lu An's departure, Qingchen faintly looked forward to it.
The Phantom Cloud County Lord rubbed his forehead, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "How is it possible?"
It's youβ
Sister Qingchen, my sister can't take care of you anymore in this situation.
But don't worry, before I leave the capital, I will give you back your freedom.
Okay, Xifeng, let's continue drinking, playing and singing, and rest when we get drunk! β
