Chapter 19: No Drunk, No Home
"Wan Gongzi, the incident happened suddenly just now, so I wasn't injured." After Lu Chen said goodbye to Wan Xian, he still went to Wan Ruhui's courtyard to see him in person.
"Lord Lu is too polite, I'm fine. Thanks to Lord Lu's help today, I wanted to come to the door tomorrow to thank you, why bother you to come over. Wan Ruhui was in a daze in the study, and when he heard the little servant report that Lu Chen was coming, he let him in, if it was anyone else, he would push it, but Lu Chen saved him once and was in the center of the incident, so he had to see him.
"Why is the so-called assassination today, does Wan Gongzi have a clue?" Lu Chen wanted to hear his opinion.
"I really didn't think for a while, there are many family lines, side branches, and many people, if I usually do something not in place to offend the uncle of which house in the family is not impossible, but I don't think it is enough to let them spend so much money to kill people on the street. Don't hide it from Lord Lu, my skills have been practiced since I was a child, and the martial arts master is also a famous family, my skills may not be ranked in the rivers and lakes, but among the younger generation in the capital, I can also count the numbers, and everyone in this family knows it. As for the people outside, that's not to mention, it's not that I'm arrogant, and the Wanjia family won't be my turn to call the shots for a while, and the target is my father, right? ”
Lu Chen found that although Wan Ruhui had just experienced so many things, his mind was still clear, and he had to admit that what he said was reasonable. As for Wan Ruhui's skills, it is not an unusual thing for the son of a family in the capital to cultivate both civil and military since he was a child, and it is not a big deal to ask a master of the rivers and lakes to protect him as a master of the rivers and lakes as Wan Xian, not to mention that as a martial arts teacher of his son-in-law, it is normal. And according to Lu Chen's observation, unlike Wan Ruhai's three knives, Wan Ruhui's martial arts are hard work, with a solid foundation, flexible steps, and neat shots, and some Wudang and Huashan moves can be seen. In terms of pure skill, his martial arts are not modest among the young generation in the capital. It's just that after all, he is a son of a family, and he has never seen blood or killed anyone, so it is inevitable that his strength will be greatly reduced in the face of assassins who kill people for a living.
The major families can't raise assassins who are so interested in killing, and there are also a number of killer sects on the rivers and lakes, as far as Lu Chen knows, the sects that can exclude thirty or forty second-rate killers are all a minority. These people kill people for a living, but they only kill themselves, Wan Ruhui's strength is unscathed, he quietly probed the pulse just now, and he was not injured internally, so as long as he confirms the situation on Jin Chengyuan's side, he can basically determine the facts.
"I'm bothering Wan Gongzi tonight, there's still something unclear, but I don't know if to ask ...... or not," Lu Chen said.
"Lord Lu, I confirm that Ning Chen has nothing to do with this matter, she is a weak woman, such a fanfare killer, do you think it is possible." Wan Ruhui interrupted Lu Chen before he could ask.
"That Wan Gongzi and Miss Ning Chen?" Lu Chen said tentatively.
"It's a long story between the two of us. I don't have to report to you one by one, but today I ...... "Wan Ruhui has indeed experienced a lot today, I want to drink, I want to find someone to chat. I don't know why, he actually looked at Lu Chen, a cold-hearted and cold-faced person, and recalled it with a hundred and fifty ten.
There are many encounters between talented and beautiful people, there are many in the book, willow bank, dawn wind and waning moon, moon dew is cold, sycamore leaves are yellow, three more snow, peach blossom moon, love at first sight, spring breeze once, and then forget each other in the rivers and lakes, or hurriedly as a passerby. But the two of them, one is overwhelmed by the burden of the family and wants to find the source of peach blossoms, and the other is grateful for treating each other with sincerity and giving all his sincerity.
But the identity is different, and it is more important than friendship.
It is impossible for Wan Xian to let a woman in the Qinglou enter the mansion, let alone enter the courtyard of the future successor, Ning Chen is not willing to be pointed at and hopeless for the rest of his life, so tragedy, it is just a matter of time.
"Trapped by love, it shows that Master Wan is a man of temperament, and Master Wan has taught both of you brothers very well." Lu Chen comforted.
"My father is for my good I know, it is not easy for him to support the long house, and I also know, so since I was a child, when other children were running around and playing, I was studying and practicing martial arts, and when other children were messing around in the Qinglou Casino, I was learning to behave in the world, how could I not be envious, but I knew my father's difficulties and wanted to do my best to share them for him. That's when I met Ning Chen, she was talented and sensible, she told me that there must be a reward for paying, and told me that if I want to succeed, I must bear the weight, and my vulnerability is in her, but I can't do anything for her" Wan Ruhui took out the wine glass out of nowhere, and drank it all.
"It's the opposite, it's man-made, how can Wan Gongzi know the result if he doesn't try." Lu Chen is also a son of a family, the Lu family has been inherited for hundreds of years, and the rules are more exquisite than those of ten thousand families. He thought of his eldest brother and sister-in-law.
Lu Chen's eldest brother Lu Feng is also the eldest son of the Lu family, and he is both talented and beautiful, and he is more mature and stable than Lu Chen. As the successor of the Lu family, his marriage is naturally not a child's play. Lu Chen still remembers that when the eldest brother reached the age of discussing relatives, the threshold of the family was almost stepped on, there were girls and young ladies in the famous and surnamed families in Chang'an City, and everyone who was old wanted to try the situation, who knew this try, he tried for three years, Lu Feng was not satisfied, and he could find fault with each of them, and then rejected them one by one. At this time, the eldest brother said that he thought that the girl of the Liu family in the south of the city was very good, smart, virtuous and humble, and he took a fancy to marry him. The father was annoyed and said that he had no opinion, thinking that as long as it was a girl with an innocent background, it would be fine, and the mother also wanted to know which girl it was, why she hadn't heard of it before. After inquiring, I found out that it was the daughter of the Liu's pharmacy in the south of the city, and she had just passed this year. I can't talk about my life experience, and my talent is barely superior, but after marriage, the two still live a harmonious and beautiful life, and my sister-in-law also treats her in-laws as her biological parents. Therefore, Lu Chen didn't think that the difference in life experience would break up the true feelings. He only said that things were man-made.
"It's man-made, if only I were the second brother. Does Lord Lu have a sweetheart? Wan Ruhui went glass after glass, and seemed to be a little drunk.
"I don't have the luck of Brother Wan, and I'm still alone. Is it okay for the second son to come in? Lu Chen also thought of Wan Ruhai, and I don't know if he is still reading, enjoying the scenery and painting. Compared with Wan Ruhui, although he is a concubine, he is much happier.
"It's very good, writing poems, painting, enjoying beautiful scenery, visiting mountains and waters, and enjoying the great rivers and mountains, I am sometimes about to be jealous of him."
With the support of Brother Wan, he has the confidence to support the mountain. Many things are good things in the eyes of others, but they don't necessarily think so when they happen to themselves, this is also my honey and the arsenic of the other. ”
Wan Ruhui knew what Lu Chen meant, Ru Hai's affection for mountains and rivers is not necessarily that he only loves mountains and rivers, but just to avoid unnecessary disputes and take the initiative to withdraw. My honey is arsenic, "Where is Brother Lu's honey, and what is arsenic." ”。
"My honey, I once had a friend, we agreed to cultivate ourselves together, and the family ruled the country and the world, and later, later, then I began to cultivate myself." Lu Chen smiled and drank all the wine in his glass.
Wan Ruhui didn't expect him to say this, he was stunned for a while, but his mood calmed down a lot, he shook his head and smiled, "Don't say it, don't say it, drink, and Brother Lu won't get drunk today." ”
