Jiangbei Prefecture, Xunyang City.

This place has been under the rule of Daqi for nearly two years, and it was originally in the border area of Yanqi and was deeply influenced by Daqi, so it behaved very tame after returning to obedience, especially when Daqi sent officials to establish the official government system, everything became orderly, and there was an atmosphere of popular aspirations.

In this process, many high-ranking families have played a pivotal role.

The Xunyang royal family is one of the distinctive representatives.

Since leaving the Northland many years ago and parting ways with the Zhai Lin Wang clan, the Wang family has been secretive about their origins and tried their best to downplay the connection with the sect, so even the gentry in Xunyang City did not know that this Wang clan was actually a branch of the Zhai Lin Wang clan.

With his own efforts to conquer Jianghua City, as well as his contribution to the process of conquering the hearts of Jiangbei people, Wang Shao was exceptionally appointed as the general judge of Xunyang Mansion, and his son Wang Jun served under Lu Shen, and is now the marching Sima of the Dingbei Army of the Dingzhou Governor's Mansion.

This kind of treatment has made many Jiangbei wang people envious, and with the arrival of a marriage decree, the Wang family's reputation in Xunyang City has almost reached its peak.

The Son of Heaven personally gave marriage and married the daughter of the Xunyang Wang family to Lu Shen, Marquis of Shanyang, as his wife!

Although there is still a woman in this holy decree, it is a great honor for the Wang family, after all, two years ago they were still the people under the rule of Beiyan, and now they have not only entered the officialdom of Daqi, but they can also marry the soaring Huaizhou Lu family, which is really envious of others.

Wang Shao had long known the inside story of this matter, because the warp weaving department and Lu Shen's henchmen had come to Xunyang a year ago to make arrangements to prevent Wang Chulong's identity from being discovered by the people in the north, which would kill thousands of people from Zhai Lin's Wang family.

Therefore, Wang Shao behaved very appropriately in front of outsiders, and never appeared arrogant and forgetful, which won him a voice of praise.

Within the Wang family, the protection of Wang Chulong has reached a level of detail that ordinary people can hardly imagine.

Although this kind of life is comfortable, it will inevitably be boring and boring after a long time.

Jin Shu sat on a small stool, his flexible hands were knitting a sweat towel, and from time to time he quietly looked at Wang Chulong, who was sitting in front of the window holding a book and reading.

After several times, Wang Chulong put down the thick book of "The Complete Works of Yuanshan" and asked with a smile: "What are you looking at?" ”

Jin Shu hurriedly lowered his head and said, "No, it's nothing." ”

Wang Chulong turned his head to look at her, and said leisurely: "Xu is Jingji thinking about it?" Be patient, and when things turn around in the future, you and I won't need to be so careful. ”

"Miss, the maid didn't think about this."

Jin Shu simply put the things in his hand on the small table next to him, got up and walked closer and said, "Miss just thinks that Lu Gongzi is a little biased. ”

Wang Chulong said curiously: "Where do you start with this? ”

Jin Shu sighed: "I won't talk about the original thing. This time, Lu Gongzi has been in the capital for so long, and several major things he has done are related to Miss Lin's family. I heard that Lu Gongzi encountered an assassin in the capital, although he knew that he was fine, and the young lady still prayed for him for seven days, but Lu Gongzi didn't know about it, and the world only knew that he and Miss Lin joined forces to kill the enemy, and their hearts were like a pair made in heaven. ”

Wang Chulong gently refuted: "The world is important in sincerity, I pray for him to be safe, and I don't deliberately act in front of him, what does it matter if he knows it or not?" ”

Jin Shu pouted: "That said, the maid is just worried about the young lady." Besides, this time the rebellion in the capital, not only the Miss Lin family has been by Lu Gongzi's side, but even the Miss Li family is also there, but the young lady can only stay here in vain and anxious. ”

Wang Chulong couldn't help but say when he heard this: "Silly girl, do you want me to go to the battlefield to dance with knives and guns?" Even if your young lady has this heart, she doesn't have the strength, so it's enough not to cause trouble. ”

"Hey...... Miss......"

"Okay, okay, I know you're kind, but it's just a few words of small talk in front of me, don't take it seriously. I know the matter between me and Lu Gongzi, don't worry in vain. ”

For this personal maid who grew up together since childhood, Wang Chulong treats her slightly differently from other maids, and sometimes has a little bit of sister-to-sister kindness.

Jinshu nodded and said: "The maid understands this truth, but I just think that the young lady's talent should not be buried." Miss often says that everyone has their own strengths, like Miss Lin has a brilliant martial arts and can help Lu Gongzi do a lot of things, but there is not only fighting and killing in the world. Miss is so smart and can help Lu Gongzi in many things, it's a pity to be so wasteful. ”

Wang Chulong was silent.

She doesn't have the heart to boast, but as Jinshu said, spending her time in the best two decades will inevitably be a little melancholy.

Looking at Wang Chulong's reduced face, Jinshu couldn't help but regret it, and hurriedly changed his words: "Miss, the maid is talking nonsense, you must not take it to heart." ”

Wang Chulong shook his head and said, "It's okay." ”

At this moment, another big girl named Mo Yun entered, and said crisply: "Miss, two strange men came, saying that they were sent by Lu Gongzi, and the master was entertaining in the front hall, please go and see Miss." ”

It stands to reason that a woman who has not left the cabinet should definitely not see a foreign man, but if today's son's marriage decree has come down, Wang Chulong is the daughter-in-law of the Lu family, and she is only one step away from being the hostess of the Shanyang Hou Mansion.

Wang Chulong thought for a moment, and said, "Okay." ”

Jin Shu was very exposed, and his smiling eyes were like a crescent moon, and Wang Chulong couldn't help but laugh.

When he came to the front hall, Wang Chulong recognized at a glance that one of the men was Tan Zheng who he had seen before, and the other was slightly familiar.

Of course, Wang Shao would not really regard himself as Wang Chulong's father, so he left first to deal with business after a few polite words.

"My subordinates have seen Miss Wang."

Tan Zheng and Qu Zhong saluted respectfully, and then introduced themselves succinctly.

"You don't have to be polite."

Wang Chulong responded calmly, and Jinshu stood behind her.

Tan Zheng said first: "On the order of the Hou Ye, the subordinates came to convey several things to Miss Wang, one of which is that the Hou Ye has gone to Shazhou and was ordered by the Son of Heaven to try to repair the relationship between Daqi and Shazhou. Hou Ye said that the trip is not expected to be too smooth, but it will not be too risky, please Miss Wang don't worry. ”

Wang Chulong bowed slightly, and ironed a little in his heart.

Tan Zheng said again: "The second thing, Hou Ye hopes that Miss Wang can do him a favor." ”

The eyes of the brocade who was standing in the back lit up.

Wang Chulong said unhurriedly: "But it doesn't hurt to say it. ”

Tan Zheng lowered his head and said: "Hou Ye said that now the Lu family's manpower is very large, and there is a lack of a person with outstanding ability to preside over the overall situation, and Hou Ye himself lacks skills, so he sent his subordinates to go through this experience." Hou Ye said that Miss Wang did not have to be reluctant, if she was not interested in this matter, Hou Ye would make other arrangements. ”

Jin Shu was stunned when he heard it.

Wang Chulong hesitated: "You mean, Lu Gongzi asked me to help take care of these manpower?" ”

Tan Zhengzheng said: "It's not help, Hou Ye means that he wants Miss Wang to be fully responsible." From now on, all the forces in the shadows of the Lu family, except for the guards around the master, will be in the hands of Miss Wang. What we need to do and how to do it is just to follow Miss Wang's orders. ”

He took out a booklet from his arms, held it in front of him with both hands, and said respectfully: "Here is the complete roster of the Lu family's secret guards, with everyone's detailed information on it, please Miss Wang to look at it." ”

Jin Shu hurriedly stepped forward to take it, and then handed it over to Wang Chulong.

The booklet is very light, but Wang Chulong can feel its heavy weight.

She didn't look through it immediately, held the booklet and asked, "What else did Lu Gongzi say?" ”

Tan Zheng replied: "Hou Ye said that Miss Wang does not need to worry about Hou Ye's safety, he handed over the Lu family's hands to Miss Wang out of absolute trust in Miss Wang, and this matter has been agreed by the master." The Lu family's manpower has been trained by the master and the marquis, and they are not necessarily weaker than the spies of the warp weaving department in terms of personal ability, but they have never been able to exert their due strength, the reason is that there is a lack of a person in charge who can really understand the overall situation. ”

Wang Chulong heard the meaning of his words, and said slowly: "You have always taken the warp weaving department as the target of comparison? ”

Tan Zheng said calmly: "Yes." Now that Hou Ye's status is getting higher and higher, there are some dangers that are difficult to eliminate. The old man asked his subordinates to tell Miss Wang that he didn't want the Qingfeng Street assassination case to happen again in the future, not only for the assassination of Hou Ye alone, but also for the potential threat to everyone in the Lu family. ”

"I see."

Wang Chulong bowed slightly.

Aside from the importance of this matter itself, the purpose of Tan Zheng's trip has been clearly expressed, and the reason why Lu Shen made such a decision was because he regarded her as a real family.

It's not the kind of marriage object that respects each other like ice.

She remembered the words she had said during the banquet in Guangling City at the beginning of the year, when there were only two people, her and Lu Shen.

It turned out that he had always kept it in his heart.

A faint smile appeared on Wang Chulong's face, and he said, "Okay, let someone tell Master Lu and Master Lu, I will do my best in this matter." ”

Tan Zheng and Qu Zhong immediately said solemnly: "Subordinates receive orders!" ”

Wang Chulong glanced at the booklet in his hand, and said: "I need all the information you have collected and mastered, no matter when, where, who, or what, it can be brief, but it can't be missing. ”

Qu Zhong replied: "Miss Wang, Master Hou has already ordered us to prepare properly, and we can send it over at any time." ”

Wang Chulong said neatly: "Very good, then let's do it today." In addition, if you stay in Xunyang City for the next few days, I will rearrange and divide your responsibilities. ”

Tan Zheng and Qu Zhong responded, and then saluted and retired.

At this moment, Jin Shucai said a little embarrassed: "Miss, ...... servant"

"Alright, you're a prophet of the unknown."

Wang Chulong raised his hand and gently scraped the tip of her nose.

The master and servant were about to return to the back house, but they saw Wang Shao striding hurriedly.

Wang Chulong stepped forward and saluted, "Uncle." ”

Wang Shao waved his hand and said a little nervously: "Chu Long, I may not be able to go back to the house often during this time, you have to take care of yourself." ”

Wang Chulong observed his expression and asked, "Could it be that there is a change in the border?" ”

Wang Shao was not surprised that her thinking was so agile, and she said with a solemn expression: "I just received the news that the five-day prospect army began to enter the border of Dingzhou, although our side is still calm, but no one can say whether the Jing army will go south to open up another battlefield." An order was issued from above, and all the provinces should be on guard and not be neglected. ”

Wang Chulong was slightly stunned.

Wang Shao said a few more words, and then left in a hurry.

Wang Chulong came to the porch and looked up at the north.

In the courtyard, the autumn wind kills.
