Chapter 72: It's tiring to be a pretty boy
There was a dining table in the hall, and behind the table sat two people, Shangguan Changge and a man in his early fifties.
Shangguan Changge did not wear the noble palace dress of last night, but simply wore a light shirt, his hair was coiled, and he wore a hairpin at will.
The man sitting next to her had a straight mouth and nose, and he had a sense of not being angry and arrogant for a long time, and he had a bit of a scholarly temperament.
He was wearing a green shirt, his temples were slightly white, and his eyes were full of vicissitudes, and he did not deliberately hide the traces of time.
With this bearing alone, Xu You knew that this person was Zhou Wuji, one of the core powerful monks of the Great Zhou Imperial Family.
This person was born as a military general when he was young, and he liked literature and was good at strategy, and he made immortal achievements when he was in friction with foreign tribes.
has both the domineering spirit of a military general and the lightness of a literati, and is a Confucian general who is famous on the frontier.
Later, after the border was peaceful, he retreated to the second line and came to Xichuan County as the county guard, and he was the county guard for more than 30 years. In the past few decades, he has been in charge of people's livelihood in Xichuan County.
The reputation among the people is very good.,It's a Xichuan county guard that everyone likes.。
"I've seen the county guard, and I've seen the seniors of the Shangguan." Xu You took the lead in saying hello.
"Sit, I heard Changge say that you came to celebrate your birthday this time, and it was rude that you didn't take the time to see you last night." Zhou Wuji said in a warm voice and motioned for Xu You to sit down.
Xu You thanked him and sat down on the opposite side.
Zhou Wuji continued, "Xiaoyou is young and cultivates profoundly, and Kunlun Immortal Sect is prosperous. I also want to thank Xiaoyou for the events of the night before. ”
"Jun Shou praised it, I'm just an ordinary disciple, and as a disciple of the Immortal Sect, I naturally can't sit idly by." Xu You said modestly.
Zhou Wuji half-squinted his eyes and looked at Xu You with a smile on his face.
Xu You also picked up the teacup and drank it.
"Xu You, I have something to tell you." Shangguan Changge turned his head to look at Xu You.
"Senior, please speak." Xu You said.
"I have an only daughter, called Wan'er, with a standout appearance and talent. Now that Taiyi Sect is concentrating on cultivation, he is about the same age as you. If I have time, I can introduce you later. Shangguan Changge said slowly.
Xu You was stunned for a moment, and the tea in his mouth almost choked. He looked at Zhou Wuji, who looked indifferent, and then at Shangguan Changge, who had a calm look.
I realized it all of a sudden, although the other party said so tactfully, but I'm afraid it's not the drunkard's intention to drink!
Is this trying to make yourself a son-in-law? No, it shouldn't come to this point. It is impossible for the two of them to lose their status so much, probably because they want to be friends.
Thinking about this clearly, Xu You smiled and said, "That's natural, I'm also very interested in getting acquainted with the daughter of my predecessors." If he has the opportunity one day, he should see him. ”
Listening to Xu You's answer, Shangguan Changge only smiled lightly, and no longer talked about this topic, but talked about ordinary things like daily life in the Xianmen.
Xu You naturally knew everything, and chatted with each other very carefully.
When the sun was on the clock, the communication jade talisman in Xu You's pocket vibrate, and it was a message from the Xianmen Office in the city.
Seeing this, Xu You pointed to the jade talisman and said apologetically, "Senior, there is still something in my door, I'm afraid I have to leave now." ”
"Go ahead." Shangguan Chang sang his head.
"Thank you seniors for your hospitality, and the juniors will retire first." Xu You stood up and solemnly gestured before turning around and leaving the hall.
Shangguan Changge and Zhou Wuji watched Xu You leave, and after a while, Zhou Wuji suddenly sighed with emotion, "This Xu You's demeanor can be called the dragon and phoenix among people, although Kunlun Xianmen has declined, but in the end it is extraordinary." The disciples are still like dragons. ”
This emotion was issued by him in his capacity as a royal family, and the heritage of Xianmen can make anyone sigh from the bottom of his heart after all.
Shangguan Changge said, "I didn't praise it, Xu You is indeed an extremely rare talent." It goes without saying what it means to be able to slash the four realms with the sword qi of the three realms that night, right? ”
"That's right." Zhou Wuji bowed his head slightly, "It's just that you know Wan'er's temperament, isn't it inappropriate for you to say that just now?" ”
Shangguan Changge said slowly, "Wan'er, she has a cold temperament and high vision. But Xu You's every aspect is higher than her vision no matter what.
I didn't say that they are good, young people's business belongs to young people, it is good to be a friend, multiple friends have many paths. It doesn't matter if you can't be friends.
The new era of the Great Dao is coming, no one knows what will happen to you and me under the general trend, the luck of the world is young sooner or later, I just think about the future for Wan'er. ”
Zhou Wuji's lips twitched twice, but he didn't speak again. It was a trivial matter to him.
Young people are excellent, but his strength and status are here, and it is not yet time to rely on young people.
On the other side, when Xu You left the City Lord's Mansion, he rushed to the direction of the office as soon as possible.
Shangguan Changge's words just now made him think a little too much now, originally thinking that Guan Changge gave him two generous gifts when they met last night because of his master Li Changsheng.
But now that I savor it, I'm afraid that it's not just because of this reason, she is investing in an excellent pretty boy.
Xu You suddenly became a little helpless, this person, as soon as he is excellent, the big and small ones will swarm in. Xu You said that he was under a lot of pressure, and he was so tired of being a beautiful boy.
"Senior Brother Xu!"
The greeting voice behind him woke up, and when he looked back, it was Huo Lianyi who shouted.
The little girl changed into an ordinary skirt, her hair was combed into a bun, her face was still veiled, and her eyes looked at her in surprise.
"It's Senior Sister Huo, how is it, is your body fine?" Xu You smiled and paused, and asked.
"It's okay, Senior Brother spent the night in the City Lord's Mansion last night, and I waited here." Huo Lianyi walked to Xu You's side, "I haven't thanked Senior Brother yet, thank you, Senior Brother." ”
"You're welcome." Xu You nodded.
"My mother said that if you need help with anything in the future, just say it." Huo Lianyi continued.
Xu You's eyelids couldn't help jumping twice, after getting to know the owner of Huo Lou, Xu You didn't dare to say anything like asking people to help.
He stays away from this kind of crazy criticism of women.
Even this Huo Lianyi he planned it this way, his daughter is like a mother, Huo Lianyi's behavior that night still made Xu You forget it.
Of course, he naturally couldn't say this in front of the little girl, so he just bowed his head and said, "Then thank you for your kindness." ”
"It should."
Huo Lianyi chatted with Xu You for a few more words and then left, as a popular idol, she was very busy, the schedule for listening to the music was full, and now she had to rush to the next place.
"By the way, Senior Brother, don't forget to invite me to the double cultivation ceremony between you and Senior Sister Luo in the future." The little girl's crisp laughter before leaving brought out such a sentence.
