Chapter 84: Confession

At lunchtime, Zhou Ang saw the wine that made Lu Min drunk and coquettish.

It was the first time he had seen the world's wines.

It is said that grapes are nothing rare, it is said that as early as the Han Dynasty ruled the world, it has been passed over, and it is no longer a rare species, but the production of wine has always been limited to a very small scale, and therefore, even in Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, this ordinary wine is not easy to buy, to a certain extent, it is an exclusive drink for the elite class - Zhou Ang in the past has indeed not drunk it.

Not to mention, after a sip, Zhou Ang felt that the alcohol content was not low.

Lu Duan explained with a smile, "This is a close friend of the teacher, I heard that I recently accepted a disciple, I am sincerely happy for me, and I specially sent it as a congratulator, hehe, we have been writing letters for many years." ”

When he said this, Zhou Ang intuitively felt that he, a teacher who had been in power for a while, had some indescribable pure feelings, and he was as happy as a child.

However, Zhou Ang was a little surprised, and remembered the eldest brother and second brother mentioned by Lu Min just now, he couldn't help but say: "I thought it was the eldest brother or the second brother who sent someone back." ”

When he said this, only about half of it was smooth, and the remaining ninety out of five was a little curious.

Since he began to enter and leave the Lu Mansion in Lujia Town, he has always been very curious about one thing in his heart, that is, he has not met the two sons of the old man Lu Duan once after coming so many times.

Even after his formal apprenticeship, his teacher didn't seem to have the slightest intention of introducing his two sons to himβ€”which was obviously not normal.

But on the contrary, no matter from which angle you inquire, the news shows clearly and unmistakably: the Lu family has fallen to the bottom since the old man Lu Duan was dismissed, and his original disciples and servants have also been dismissed or reprimanded one after another, and many people have changed their courts, and the Lu family itself has been directly restricted from the possibility of going out, and even has been monitored by the family and trapped in their ancestral home.

Therefore, logically speaking, his two senior brothers can only accompany their father to nest in the old mansion, except for studying and having children, what else can they do?

When Lu Duan heard this, he smiled, looked at Zhou Ang gently, and said, "Zixiu, you should have asked this question a long time ago!"

Zhou Ang was stunned for a moment, but even if he understood that he was actually self-defeating, he quickly stood up and pleaded guilty, "The disciple is confused, he actually ......"

Obviously, Old Man Lu Duan not only heard the curiosity and spying in his words at once, but even faintly blamed himself for not being close enough to his old man before.

So since you have apprenticed to my master and entered my court, we are a family, how can you always be very curious about the whereabouts of the two senior brothers, but you have always endured not asking?

This is not the principle of being a disciple!

Lu Duan waved his hand, interrupted Zhou Ang's words, and said with a smile: "Sit down, sit down!" When Zhou Ang sat down, he smiled and said: "As a teacher, I didn't mean to blame you, and I understand why you didn't ask." ”

Speaking of this, he sighed, stroked his long beard with his hand, and said with a smile: "However, Zixiu, you still can't help but underestimate being a teacher! Haha......" Speaking of this, he picked up his cup, took a sip of wine, and said with a smile: "Although I have been trapped as a teacher for many years, I don't hurt myself and pity myself for this, only occasionally I am a little lonely, why don't you even mention my own situation? What's more, you are now my only disciple, what can't I say about you?"

Zhou Ang bowed his head, "It's the disciple who is shallow." ”

Lu Duan smiled, shook his head, and said: "You are not shallow, you are just sympathetic to the teacher's state of mind, and the teacher understands it, so I don't blame you." ”

Zhou Ang smiled when he heard this, and said, "The teacher's open-mindedness is really ...... Tell the disciple to be ashamed. ”

Lu Duan smiled again and waved his hand, "Where am I open-minded?"

Speaking of this, he slowly put away his smile and said, "If I hadn't been trapped in one place and practiced for thirty years, where would I have come to be of such a level now?" In the eyes of outsiders, I have only been suppressed by Xu Xiang in every way in the past thirty years, but I don't know that this is actually just the agreement between the two of us. ”

"He governs with fierceness, and I practice with peace. So much for. ”

Zhou Ang was shocked when he heard this.

This is really a complete overturn of what he had heard before.

According to the secret confided in the teacher, that is to say, his dismissal of the prime minister and Xu Xiang's complete control of the power of the DPRK and China were actually the result of the consensus of the two people, and it was an agreement!

Crouch...... Trough!

Zhou Ang was stunned for a moment, but in front of his teacher, he still quickly regained his mind, so in a flash of thought, he asked, "That...... My two brothers......"

Lu Duan immediately said: "Your eldest brother's name is Lan, the word is near the mountain, and he is currently the secretary of Jiuyuan County to join the army, although he is a small official, he is not known to the princes of the court, and the matter of Tuntian in Jiuyuan County presided over is a matter of fighting Xianbei in the north, which is not trivial." Over the years, he has also made a small contribution, which is quite comforting to me. ”

"Your second brother is named Luan, the word Zilu, and he is currently the deputy general of Zuo Yiwu's army. Zuo Yiwujun is the Tang Dynasty who is specifically responsible for fighting against the Han State, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the pillar of the Tang Dynasty. It's just that for many years, Zuo Yiwu's army has always been directly under the jurisdiction of Xu Xiang, and there should be no one in the court who knows that your second brother is in this army. ”

After a pause, he said: "In recent years, Xu Xiang has deliberately promoted the two of them many times, but they have all been suppressed by me. It's not time, it's not time yet!"

Zhou Ang has already listened thoroughly.

Although before asking, Zhou Ang had a faint guess in his heart, since the teacher was not really suppressed after the defeat of the political struggle, then presumably the situation of the two senior brothers should not be as miserable as rumored by the outside world, but he still didn't expect that the two sons of his teacher had been officials all along!

Although it may be as the teacher said, the two of them are both lowly officials for the time being, and they are not concerned by the court, but if you carefully smack their positions, it is not difficult to see that whether it is his own teacher or Xu Liang and Xu Xiang, the political enemies who have been suppressing him for nearly 30 years, they have actually been cultivating the two of them with all their hearts!

Jiuyuan County, the northernmost county of the Tang Dynasty, is the place where the Xianbei people are directly faced, there, relying on the people to reclaim by themselves, it is definitely impossible to stand the Xianbei people attacking the city year after year, so the local implementation is the policy of military tun, by the imperial court immigrants to fill in the border, the establishment of military and civilian integration of the organization, to fight against the Xianbei people who come and go freely.

Sihu joined the army, although it is not big, but as the teacher said, he is one of the officials directly responsible for the military tun, if you want to make some achievements in this position, you really have to be able to govern the army and the people!

The eldest brother Lu Lan can make deeds in such a seemingly inconspicuous position, which makes Lu Xiang think that he is "a little meritorious" and "quite comforting to my heart", it can be seen that his talent has been demonstrated, but he has been deliberately suppressed for the time being.

But in time, the future is limitless!

Let's talk about the second brother Lu Luan...... This is also ruthless enough, and he was directly sent to the front line against the Han Dynasty by Lu Xiang to be beaten! And a rough estimate of age, considering that under the extreme suppression, he has already become a deputy general, obviously his training time is not short, and he must have been trained to be real!

In a place like the army, there must be a belief in strength as respect! If the second brother Lu Luan has indeed been tempered, then it may be a matter of edict to be promoted in the future!

The most important thing is that the two sons, one people and one army under their knees have been thrown to the most dangerous and tempered place in the imperial court for so long, and the government and the opposition have not even noticed it!

Look, that's the big deal!

Thinking about these things in a flash, Zhou Ang swallowed almost subconsciously.

I can only say: a teacher is a teacher!

At this time, thinking of these things, Zhou Ang subconsciously wanted to open his mouth to pat himself on the back, not sycophancy, but sincere admiration, but at this time, Lu Duan had already spoken again: "There are only two sons under the knees of the teacher, as for this little daughter, you have also seen it, how much more interest she has been with her over the years, so she can't help but be pampered, she is a girl, and the teacher is really reluctant to do anything to her, let her go!" It is impossible to choose a good person for her in the future, and having her two brothers to take care of her will not make her feel wronged. ”

The old man said these with a smile, Zhou Ang suddenly subconsciously felt a little weak, and he couldn't say the rainbow fart in his stomach.

After taking a sip of grape wine, he smiled and said, "The teacher is so generous!"

Lu Duan smiled and said seriously: "Since you and I are masters and apprentices, the inside and outside will become one, and I will tell you these today, firstly, because the teacher wants to give you a bottom, so that you don't feel trapped here for the teacher, and you are too busy to take care of yourself, and you don't want to alarm me when you have something, and you have been wronged in vain." ”

Speaking of this, he smiled and said, "My disciple, don't let others bully!"

After he said this, the master and apprentice laughed, and Zhou Ang hurriedly said: "Now the disciple understands, and from now on, he will run rampant on the streets and live up to the teacher's high expectations!"

Lu Duan laughed when he heard this.

After laughing, he said: "As for these two, I also want to tell you that if you want to do something in your career, you can rest assured that you can move forward, as a teacher is in his last years, and he has no idea of reviving in this life, but if you have the heart, help you to go up for the teacher, and go to the political hall of the Tang Dynasty to sit down, but there is still a certain opportunity!"

Although he has long known that the teacher admires him a lot, and now he is already a formal master and apprentice, but listening to the teacher considering this step for himself, regardless of whether Zhou Ang has any plans to take the road of career in the future, he really can't get up at this moment - he couldn't help but get up and leave the table, with a solemn look, and bowed to Lu Duan seriously.

"Disciple is grateful for the five years! Thank you, teacher!"
