Volume 1: Like Clouds Chapter 25: Three Women, One Play
Chen Xiang looked at Lu Tan as if he was looking at a fool
"Who is the Sect Master? Isn't the leader the leader? Chen Xiang tilted his head.
Lu Tan: "What nonsense...... I mean, what is the true identity of the Master? ”
Chen Xiang didn't say anything, looking down at his bloody fingertips, which were dripping blood on the ground. Lu Tan suddenly wanted to smoke a cigarette, he didn't have any addiction to smoking, but occasionally he would have one when he was drinking, but at this time he somehow wanted to have one.
But there was no cigarette for him to smoke, so he could only shake the chain on his wrist and make a boring noise.
"The sect leader should be the empress." Chen Xiang was silent for a long time before he silently said this sentence.
Lu Tan was shocked, he learned that the relationship between the empress and Lu Manshuang was not good, she was forcibly pushed to this throne when she was a child, and she sat tremblingly on thin ice for so many years, and at this time she was recovering her rights little by little.
However, if it is said that the empress of a woman-respecting country wants to personally organize a sect that can be called a cult to develop this extreme male power, he does not believe it.
He even guessed just now whether the leader of this organization was Lu Manshuang, after all, those people were very good to Lu Sisi, and even avoided Lu Sisi when they were sucking blood.
So he didn't speak, he kept his head down and was thinking.
Chen Xiang washed Lu Tan's brain for a while, and basically said a few things over and over again, what is the man they organized to raise children at home every day, and there are also very smart people, but they are not qualified to enter the office...... And so on and so forth.
Lu Tan had already gotten what he wanted, and no matter how much speculation he had, it would be difficult to get it, so he no longer replied to Chen Xiang, and gently tapped the wall with his finger, which was the code he agreed with Luo Xiangwan, telling the other party that his task was completed.
Soon, several big men rushed in and kidnapped Lu Tan in front of Chen Xiang, and Chen Xiang even wanted to help Lu Tan resist one or two, but he couldn't use spiritual power, and he was beaten again, and he was kicked again, which made Lu Tan feel a little guilty again.
Back in the room, Lu Tan told Luo Xiangwan all the things Chen Xiang had explained, and when Lu Tan said that Chen Xiang told them that the leader of the "Divine Sect" was the empress, Luo Xiangwan snorted coldly: "Tianxin? To be a leader? ”
Lu Tan and Luo Tianxin were not familiar with each other, and they didn't know what Luo Xiangwan's attitude meant, it was too subtle, so he chose not to speak.
"Forget it, you can go back." Luo Xiangwan knew that she couldn't get anything from Lu Tan, and the conversation he had with Shu Nan just now did show that they didn't know each other, so she didn't bother anymore and directly put Lu Tan back.
Seeing Lu Tan follow the maid out of the room, Luo Xiangwan took out a pen and paper, and said softly to the empty room while writing: "Keep an eye on him, don't leave him for a minute." ”
……
Lu Tan, who returned to Ruyun Pavilion, didn't know anything about everything, and under Xie Ruyun's intentional or unintentional protection and Xie Wan's considerate care, he lived a good life for a few days.
If it weren't for Xie Wan pestering Lu Tan every day, hoping that Lu Tan could give her a child, Lu Tan's life might be a little happier.
His fame spread in the capital, and there was an endless stream of people who came to visit him every day.
Lu Manshuang was still in Dali Temple and was not released, Lu Sisi was monitored again, the Lu family seemed to be declining all of a sudden, and Lu Ning, who couldn't help him, didn't even dare to go out of the door, let alone come to trouble Lu Tan.
It's just that Lu Tan is a bit like Internet celebrity food, everyone is fresh for a while, and after that energy, they are still more inclined to order Liu Qinghuan and others, who are already famous. And there are only a few rich people, and the interest will fade after clicking once, which leads to Lu Tan not completing the system task within a week, and finally the system reduces the difficulty and rewards.
It was changed to a one-month period, and the income of 5,000 taels was realized, and then the reward was reduced from 5 to 2.
This is very easy, Lu Tan is not in a hurry at all, and has started the retirement life of Ruyun Pavilion: every day while picking up customers, he spends a lot of time practicing spiritual arts, and has practiced to the point that he can make a very dense thorny rose with spiritual magic, and throw it out to hurt people with dart skills.
Everything was fine.
Until Luo Xiangwan came to the door again.
……
Such as the Cloud Pavilion, when it was not yet open for business, in Lu Tan's room.
It's already November, and the temperature is cold and low until this morning.
Lu Tan was originally from the north, and he had a special love and affection for snow, and when he looked up at the snowflakes falling, he seemed to see the same sky in his hometown, so he was in a good mood all day.
But a few others weren't so happy.
On the main seat was Luo Xiangwan, whose face was gloomy, and at this time he was silently lowering his head and fiddling with the bracelet on his wrist that was covered by wide sleeves.
Xie Wan, who was opposite her, also changed her usual open-minded and cheerful appearance of smirking with big teeth, as if she had eaten poop, frowning and staring at Luo Xiangwan, as if she wanted to burn a hole in her handsome face with her eyes.
Xie Ruyun sat next to Xie Wan, and Xie Ruyun, who had always been calm at this time, was also a little angry on his face, holding a teacup and not speaking, as if he was thinking of some countermeasures.
Lu Tan and Da Qiang quietly stood aside, trying to reduce their sense of presence.
It is said that three women are in one play, these three women are together, neither he nor Daqiang dares to step forward to touch the mold, if they really fight, he and Daqiang are even easy to be scraped to death by AOE.
And today, a few of them got together for Lu Tan's marriage.
It all started a week ago.
A week ago, Lu Manshuang was finally released from Dali Temple, just because Luo Xiangwan led someone to turn the Lu Mansion upside down, and did not find out the evidence of her corruption, the ministers of the Lu Party kept playing and impeaching, and under pressure, Luo Xiangwan and Luo Tianxin had to be released.
But Luo Tianxin felt unhappy in her heart, and in the end, it was the excerpt handed by the national teacher who helped her solve the problem, Lu Tan and Lu Sisi had problems one after another, and the crime of not governing the family was strict, so it was reasonable for Lu Manshuang to "take a long vacation" and go home to rest for a while.
And Lu Manshuang is not a fuel-efficient lamp, she has been regent openly and secretly for many years as prime minister, mixed with the status of "prime minister", and has been fighting with Luo Tianxin for a long time, so she naturally understands what this young emperor is thinking.
So she made a move, it was a concession, but also with some tentative threats, she still did not admit that she was corrupt, but offered to donate 100,000 taels of silver to the treasury to show her apology for not disciplining the child - of course, this 100,000 taels is her life's work, and the entire Lu Mansion will be impoverished after donation.
Luo Tian gritted his teeth with hatred, but he also accepted the 100,000 taels, and even wrote a holy decree to announce to the world, thanking Lu Xiang for his great love and selflessness, for the country and the people.
The day Luo Xiangwan met Lu Tan, it was the first day she had just returned to the capital, she had been fighting abroad for three years, and the treasury had been so empty that it could no longer be empty, and this 100,000 yuan was a windfall for Luo Tianxin and Luo Yunguo.
After receiving the money, Luo Tianxin naturally had no way to let Lu Manshuang go home to "rest", a mother who was willing to pay 100,000 taels, who would be embarrassed to accuse her of not taking care of her children well?
100,000 taels of silver is enough to turn the page on this page, and everyone must at least be happy and happy.
It's just that Lu Manshuang is not happy in his heart.
Although 100,000 taels will not really make her destitute, it is also a solid blood. In addition, Lu Sisi was also in trouble, after she came back from Dali Temple, she was like losing her soul, she didn't talk, laugh, or communicate with others, and she lost her soul every day in the room except for eating and sleeping.
Ben also wanted her to take the son of a colleague as the main house, so as to consolidate the DPRK-China relations...... There's no way around it now.
And Lu Ning, that's it. Lu Manshuang felt a headache when Lu Ning mentioned it. If it weren't for Chen Linfeng's one, it would be too useless...... Hey, I didn't expect Chen Linfeng to die so early, but he also did a good deed and left a good marriage.
It's just that this marriage is really a waste for Lu Tan's nest of boys, and of course such a good assistant of the Xie family should be left to Ning'er.
Therefore, when Luo Tianxin was reluctant to maintain a superficial friendship with her, Lu Manshuang opened her mouth while the iron was hot: "Holy Lord, the minister still has one more thing to ask for." ”
Luo Tianxin's heart had already scolded the eighteenth generation of the Lu family's ancestors, but the surface was still as warm as a spring breeze, and he asked with a smile: "Aiqing was wronged in prison some time ago, if you have any requirements, I will satisfy you if you can do it." ”
Lu Manshuang sniffed aggrievedly: "It's not a big deal, it's still related to the uncompetitive youngest son Ning'er in Weichen's family." He has been happy with Xie Wan, the eldest daughter of the Ruyun family, since he was a child, and the two are childhood sweethearts, and they are deeply in love. And Weichen's eldest Langjun, who died early, also happened to have a marriage contract with the Xie family...... Chen thought, Sisi had this kind of thing, and he wouldn't be able to get married for a while, but Ning'er was too old to wait, so it was better to ......"
Speaking of this, she raised her head again and stared at Luo Tianxin without saying a word.
Seeing Luo Tianxin frowning slightly, she knew that Luo Tianxin might also have concerns about the marriage between the Xie family and the courtiers, and even caused Luo Tianxin's jealousy because of this move. But there was no turning back when she opened the bow, she said everything, this thing must be done, if it doesn't work, I'm afraid she won't have a foothold in this court.
So she squeezed out two more tears: "Weichen knows that Ning'er Puliu's posture is not worthy of the good daughter of the Xie family." But Ning'er and their relationship is really good, Ning'er said that he would rather be a small one and marry into the Xie family, otherwise he would die head-on...... If Ning'er has three long and two short...... The minister is not alive anymore! ”
Lu Manshuang began to play the trick of crying, making trouble, and hanging himself on top of this court.
When she said this, Luo Tianxin couldn't refuse anymore, so she had to wave her hand: "Lord Anhe, I'll leave this matter to you." ”
Luo Xiangwan, who was drowsy on the side, was suddenly named, and when he reacted, he knew that Lu Tan's kid's marriage might be yellow, and he immediately gave birth to a trace of joy that he didn't know why, and happily accepted the order.
Then there was the scene just now, Xie Ruyun and Xie Wan's mother and daughter worked together and hated the same enemy, and they didn't agree to modify the marriage contract even if they broke the sky.
