Volume 1 The First Entry Chapter 30 Graciously Declined

As soon as these words came out, Long Shaoyang was surprised and relieved, and a little admired, and said in his heart that this Miss Zhu family actually speculated that she and the county lord of Zizi knew each other, but in fact, she didn't know the inside story, so she was really worried.

Thinking of this, his doubts in his heart disappeared, and he couldn't help but feel quiet. Thinking about her subtle observation and subtle knowledge, this exquisite mind is really very accessible, and I secretly admire it. After thinking about it again, how could he and the county lord of Zizi be regarded as acquaintances, this body and this appearance, it was the first time they saw each other at the birthday banquet that day, although they already knew the existence of each other - for a while, their thoughts turned a thousand times.

After pondering for a moment, Long Shaoyang smiled calmly and said, "Thank you for wishing the girl to clear up her doubts." However, what the girl said is neither right nor right, the reason for the situation, the ins and outs, when the time is ripe, Long will definitely know the girl as it is and without reservation. But now ...... Please forgive Long for not being able to answer the girl. ”

"Who wants you to answer, if I want to know, I will ask you to speak when the horses race in the west of the city that day. Zhu Xibing smiled heartily, turned back to the chair and sat down, and said with a smile: "This girl neither wants to be difficult for others, nor does she want to trouble herself. My sister who believes in Buddhism often says that there are three Buddhas in the past, present, and future in the Buddhist family, and the little woman is shallow and can only see the Buddha of the present. ”

Long Shaoyang was amused by her and said with a smile: "Now it's in this glass of wine." I wish the girl, please!" he said, raising his glass and drinking.

Zhu Xibing also drank it all. She was not strong enough to drink, two glasses down, the wine surging up, her cheeks were slightly red, like a lotus flower blooming, very delicate.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a rush of footsteps, and someone came up from downstairs, came to the door, and knocked lightly twice. Zhu Xibing answered, and when the door opened, a person who looked like a family man walked in, and after the person respectfully saluted, he went to Zhu Xibing's side and whispered a few words, and when he saw her nodding, he hurried away again.

After the man left, Zhu Xibing said with a smile: "Young Master Long, on the birthday banquet of His Majesty that day, Gongzi's literary talent and martial arts were amazing, and it was rumored that Luocheng was rumored for a while, and I don't know how many people admired Gongzi's talent and looked forward to seeing it." At present, there is a person who is eager to be virtuous, and he admires the son very much, I wonder if the son would like to see him? This person is ...... to you. And I am very important. After speaking, his face turned red and he lowered his head.

Long Shaoyang didn't answer yet, he only listened to the sound of footsteps on the stairs, carefully distinguished, there was a difference between the light and the heavy, when the two people came slowly one after the other, and then listened to a hearty laughter, full of breath, and the voice was loud. Amid laughter, two men pushed the door and walked in.

The man in front of him had a square face, sharp edges and corners, and a gorgeous costume was even more majestic, but he was an old man in his sixties. He was followed by a very tall young man, dressed in a strong suit, majestic, and a pair of big eyes came in and shone brightly, sweeping around.

Long Shaoyang's right hand tightened slightly, and he said in his heart: "It turns out that Prime Minister Zhu and his god'er are thinking quietly." ”

The person who came was Zhu Lark and Jing Si father and son.

Zhu Xibing immediately stood up, with a happy face, threw herself into the arms of the person in front of her, and said with a smile: "Dad, you're here!"

Zhu Yunque patted her arm and said angrily, "What are you messing around with again?......?" It's really getting more and more unpleasant to drink secretly behind your father's back, and it's all because your father usually spoils you too much!"

Zhu Xibing pursed his mouth, let go of his father, and said aggrievedly: "Dad will wronged his daughter, it's true that my daughter drank alcohol, but she didn't intentionally carry her father behind her back." ”

Zhu Yunque smiled: "Okay, Dad didn't really blame you." Crying and laughing, like a three-year-old child, in front of outsiders, he is not afraid of ugliness. Saying that, he looked at Long Shaoyang, was slightly surprised, and said, "I don't know who this son is?"

Zhu Xibing smiled and said, "Dad, let me introduce you, this is Long Shaoyang Long Gongzi." ”

Long Shaoyang stood up, bowed down, and said, "Long Shaoyang, the grass people, have seen Xiangye." ”

Zhu Yunque hurriedly stretched out his hand to help him, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be the dragon young man who won the first place at His Majesty's birthday banquet that day, no wonder the old man felt familiar and familiar when he saw it." The young man's talent and wit are strategic, even His Majesty appreciates it, and the old man also appreciates it, it is really terrifying, and the future is terrifying. ”

Long Shaoyang hurriedly said: "Xiangye has won the award." The victory of the younger generation is really a fluke, if it weren't for Ling Ai to kill halfway, maybe he would have been defeated by this brother An early in the next day, and he would have won the first place later. ”

Everyone laughed when he said this.

Zhu Yunque looked Long Shaoyang up and down with a smile, saw his sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and his appearance was delicate, and he thought about the young man's literary and martial arts skills at the birthday banquet that day, and suddenly fell in love with talent, and said: "Young heroes don't have to be too humble. The old man Rong Ma has been a life, up and down for half a lifetime, nothing else, I still have the eyesight to know people, the so-called pearl of the spiritual snake, the jade of Jingshan, how can its light be covered by sand and stones?"

Long Shaoyang looked at him, only to see him smiling, and his demeanor was very calm.

I only heard Zhu Yunque say again: "I heard that Long Shaoxia is from Haizhou, and this time he came alone, if there is any need in Los Angeles, just come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find the old man." Bing'er knows best, the old man has always loved and cherished talents, and used talents to know talents, especially for young talents like Long Shaoxia. ”

Zhu Xibing nodded at the moment and looked at Long Shaoyang with a smile.

Long Shaoyang smiled slightly, and said: "The younger generation has long heard that Corporal Xiangye Lixian has the style of Meng taste, and I can see it today, how fortunate it is." However, at present, the younger generation lives in Xiao Mansion, and they should live and live, and they are all comprehensive, and if they need it in the future, they will ask for it from their grandfather. ”

Zhu Yunque frowned, and said a word of goodwill, the meaning of solicitation, obviously, who would have thought that the young man in front of him would take it and let it go, but he was the respect of the prime minister, and he felt that he was short of identity, and he groaned slightly, coughed, paced, and said slowly: "It turns out that the young man has his own opinion." Seeing the young man in his prime, majestic and heroic, it made the old man think about it for a while. A few decades ago, when the old man was as old as Shaoxia, he also wandered around, thinking about making a fortune with this skill. For the sake of Mingzhi, the old man himself changed his name to the word lark, which means to be a finch in the clouds, not a finch in the grass. Ha ha...... Now that I think about it, it feels like yesterday. After a few years, he was still lonely and nameless, and he achieved nothing, until he fell in love with God and met the first emperor, and since then he has followed his old man to fight in the north and south, and then he has this later great mansion. ”

After that, he turned around, looked at Long Shaoyang, and asked with a smile: "Long Shaoxia is very intelligent, the old man is in decline, what is the reason for this?"

Long Shaoyang said: "The ancients had a cloud 'the flight of green flies, but a few martial arts, attached to the tail, can be thousands of miles', this is the truth. What's more, Xiangye has a tail of golden scales, which is not a thing in the pool, but he has not encountered a storm and clouds to rely on earlier. ”

After listening to this, Zhu Yunque laughed loudly, and only stopped for a long time, and muttered: "Long Shaoxia is really a smart person. The east wind is good to borrow its strength to send me to the clouds. Long Shaoxia, there is this situation to rely on right now, I don't know what Shaoxia wants?"

Long Shaoyang shook his hands and said with a smile: "Thank you for your love, and the younger generation will feel guilty." It's just that on that day's birthday banquet, His Majesty has already given the prince of the five grades to give up his people, and he will go to the East Palace to be on duty in the near future--it is really a pity! If he has another chance in the future, the younger generation will definitely go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to flatter. ”

When Zhu Yunque heard this, the smile on his face suddenly froze, and he disappeared without a trace in an instant, and secretly thought: "The old man is the prime minister of a country, one of the generals of the four pillars of the founding country, above one person, below ten thousand people, how many people are rushing to it, and the authorities are looking forward to the old man's eyes, you, a young man who is not deeply involved in the world, do not know the height of the sky, and you actually refute the old man's face on the spot." I couldn't help but feel angry in my heart, but I didn't provoke it, I smiled at the moment, and said coldly: "Long Shaoxia said this, is it because he dislikes the small temple of our mansion? Hmph, Shaoxia must know that this temple is big and small, and it may not be accurate to see and hear, some seem to be big but are actually small, and some are big today and small tomorrow." There was a sense of majesty in his tone.

Long Shaoyang's eyes were calm, and he said calmly: "How dare you, the younger generation will never have such intentions." Long knows the way of being a man, which lies in keeping promises and keeping promises. Long has joined the East Palace, and he has been good from the beginning to the end. If Long is a villain who sees something different and betrays his promise, I am afraid that Xiangye will also abandon him. ”

Zhu Yunque laughed, turned around and walked to the window, and said, "That's not necessarily." The old man has always used people to learn from people's strengths, eclectic, chickens and dogs can be used. In the old man's view, there is a difference between good and bad, there is a difference between high and low, and all talents have a price, and there is no talent that cannot be recruited, only a price that cannot be negotiated. ”

"Xiangye really sees it that way?"

Zhu Lark turned around, with a smug look on his face, and said slowly: "Not bad." To this day, the old man has not met a talent who has no price. Long Shaoxia, gold and jade, good house BMW, what do you like, the old man has everything. ”

"I'm afraid that the younger generation will disappoint you. ”

"Huh?"

"The younger generation thinks that there are some things that are priceless - to talk about it, it is impossible to talk about it. ”

He didn't speak in a loud voice, but at this moment it was like a thunderclap out of thin airβ€”and the room fell silent. Zhu Yunque swept the corner of his eyes, and saw that there were four large meatballs in the sand pot in the middle of the table - it was Guiyun Pavilion's signature dish iron lion head, the meatballs were delicate, and the cabbage sum was green, which complemented each other, and couldn't help but make people feel relished. After a pause, he sneered, and said: "After all, the young man is young and vigorous, and he is not deeply involved in the world, you must know that the things in this world may not always be worthy of the name, for example, the iron lion head of this Guiyun Pavilion seems to be as hard as iron, but it is soft and weak, and it is vulnerable...... If the young man is interested, the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion will always be open for you. The prime minister still has the court affairs in his body, so he will accompany him less. With that, he shook the corner of his robe and went straight away.

The quiet thought followed, and he stood there motionless all the while, without saying a word.

Zhu Xibing saw that his father was gone, and his face turned pale, and he shouted anxiously, "Dad, Dad", pulled his legs and left, just walked to the door, turned around, glanced at Long Shaoyang, and was anxious and reluctant in his eyes, and said: "Long Gongzi, he is my father, even if he doesn't want to, you can think about it in the long run, you, why are you ......" hesitated, stomped his feet, and followed.

Everyone went, and Long Shaoyang was the only one left in the huge private room.

He stood there silently, thoughtful. After a long time, he sat back in the chair, picked up the wine jug, slowly poured a glass of wine, and with a "grunt", he leaned back. Raise the chopsticks to the iron lion's head clip, sure enough, it will be broken as soon as it is clamped, soft and abnormal, put it in the mouth, but the meat is delicious, and the fragrance is mellow. Things are like this, but are people like this?

Thinking in my heart, I raised my eyes and looked out the window, only to see that the originally clear and bright sky had become cloudy at some point.
