Chapter 34 (11)

Lu Qian said: "No, when I saw that my career was not up to scratch, I hurriedly retired to the world, and I inevitably took the responsibility too lightly." Honestly, it's not as simple as you think. Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and on the shore of the land, it is not the king's ministers. Do you think there is any quiet place in this world? If you really want to live freely, the 'entry into the court and becoming an official' in front of you is the most convenient way! If you think that officialdom is dark and that it is limited by the old bureaucratic system, you can reorganize it from top to bottom and create an ideal kingdom of your own. The rewards and punishments of the law are not up to you. The greatest pleasure in the world is that as the supreme king, no one can disobey your will anymore. ”

Xia Shengxun said lightly: "Lord Lu's words are wrong. Real gold and jade, it inhabits the mud tiles, and does not change its quality slightly. If you think my brother is talented, he doesn't have to cling to the soles of your feet. A good man should be self-reliant, and he should also become a king, should he be a puppet who is assisted by you and is constrained everywhere, or should he stand on his own and do whatever he wants? What choice should be made, I think Lord Lu should know better than us. Do unto others as you would have them do to you. I believe that my vision is good, and in terms of strength in all aspects, Brother Yi is not inferior to you. When it comes to the battle, it is still unknown who will win and who will lose. ”

Yuan Yi smiled: "What Sheng Xun said is exactly what I meant. Lord Lu, in fact, I am just one of the most unpromising descendants of the four major families. Instead of focusing on me, it is better to fight for the three later. As a friend, I can take you to open your eyes. Once there, you will truly realize the gap in strength and your own shortcomings. If there is a move at that time, I dare to say that the whole Central Plains, the army of the whole country, will definitely not be able to resist the enemy. For the sake of us for the time being, you should not try to light that fuse. Otherwise, it won't do you or me any good. ”

Lu Qian looked around between the two of them, and smiled at Xia Shengxun: "Miss Xia, you are the most beautiful and smartest. Yuan Gongzi is a little confused, you can't follow him to be confused, help me persuade him a few words, okay?" Xia Sheng smiled and said: "I didn't want him to agree, but now it's just what I want, do you want me to lie? Not everyone can be like Lord Lu, earth-shaking and unobstructed. ”

Lu Qian almost took a blow in front of him, his face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he said: "If you don't think about yourself, you should also think about Yuan Gongzi." It is true that a woman regards her husband as heaven, but how can she hinder his future for you? For his good, if he is sticky with you for a lifetime, it will be useless. On the contrary, persuade him to become a professional, but let him apply what he has learned and realize his ambitions......"

Yuan Yi said with a smile: "Lord Lu is too exalted to me, how can I have any lofty ambitions? I don't want to follow my father to practice martial arts, not because I have any unfilial piety to him, but because I don't want to provoke criticism behind others, saying that I rely on anyone's power." Even under the command of my own father, I refused to stay, and finally escaped to the outside, after a lot of hardships, I finally mixed up a little fame, is it still for the special trip to Yun Guifei? If my wish is very simple, it is to be with Sheng, never leave her for the rest of my life, love her well, cherish her, and be a pair of fairy couples who are envied by the world. Her happiness is only valuable if I have struggled for it and given it to her with my own hands. You see, I'm just an ordinary man trapped in love, and such a person is not worth fighting for. ”

Lu Qian was almost out of whack, and said with a dry smile: "You two, are you really husband and wife?"

Xia Shengxun smiled and said, "Thank you Lord Lu for the compliment." Yes, everything is magnificent and has to be created with my own hands, and that's what I want. For a woman, no matter how nice she says, she always hopes in her heart that her husband can leave his business behind and be by her side for her. Even if it is relatively silent, as long as we sit quietly together, he looks at me, I look at him, and silence is better than sound at this time. I know enough to get this kind of ordinary happiness. As the emperor's harem, I have to compete for favor with the rest of the women at all times, and I want to share my husband with them, I don't want to! The person I want to marry will definitely care for me wholeheartedly and treat me well. Otherwise, no matter how ambitious his ambition is, no matter how respectable his status is in the martial arts, I will never marry him. ”

Li Yijie's body stiffened, and a mouthful of green vegetables sandwiched in the chopsticks suddenly fell on the table. I only felt a chill down my spine. No matter how dull he was, he could hear it at this time that Xia Shengxun's words were specifically for satirizing him. Isn't he determined to save the people and save the world, and is "ambitious"? As the highest level alliance leader in the martial arts, isn't he still considered a "respected status"?

Nangong Xue's intentions, he couldn't be clearer. Helplessly, I really didn't love her, and secondly, I had Shen Shiyun in my heart, knowing that it was difficult to let go, and I didn't want to let her down. But although the younger sister is strong on the outside, she has always been cowardly in her feelings, and she is as sensitive as a frightened cat. Could this be a blatant statement to him, and at the same time a condemnation of his ruthless man?

Slowly raised his gaze, and immediately touched Xia Shengxun's gaze. It seems that her eyes are on two sides of each other, one is smiling with Lu Qian and Yuan Yiyan, just like normal. And the other, like weeping and complaining, like resentment, only looked at him alone. Li Yijie was instantly frightened and frightened, panicked and speechless, hurriedly buried his head, covered his face with a bowl, and gulped down the rice.

The three people at the same table then talked about a few more words, and he didn't know anything. After eating a meal, I was even hungrier than before eating. The stomach is heavy, and the heart is also heavy.

It was like this, I don't know how long it would last, and when I raised my eyes again, I had already gone out with Lu Qian's farewell and walked on the crowded street. Turning his head to look back, the original mansion was no longer clear from afar. Secretly smiled bitterly: "If you go through this more experience, you will get nothing, and it will only increase the trouble." And I can't live with you. ”

Lu Qian smiled: "Brother Li, don't say that. What's more, how can it be called nothing? Just now, didn't we get the most important clue? But really speaking, this Xia girl is also serious, her words and deeds are not leaking, and she is completely another person. If I hadn't loved Cher before, I might not have been able to tell the difference. In the end, you still have the ability, and without saying a word, you can attract her to expose her bottom. ”

Li Yijie was irritable in his heart, and said secretly: "If you don't recognize Xue'er, then it's just impossible to tell the difference, what are you talking about?"

Lu Qian said: "Isn't this obvious? The authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear." Miss Xia's last sentence, what is marrying the wrong person, her husband is not in pain, etc., clearly refers to you. In this case, she is not forgetful of you, but she also holds a grudge. It's hard to balance the two, and now I'm doing something I can't do, so I have to pretend not to recognize you. Every time you go to her, you are full of temptations, and it is torture with you, but it is even deeper with her. ”

Li Yijie was already six gods and no master, and said: "But what do you want me to do? Doesn't she understand, I sincerely bless her and Yuan Gongzi, as long as she lives well, I will be at ease." The original intention was just to say something heavy and apologize to her. Why would she avoid it so much?"

Lu Qian said: "I see that you don't understand." The more you pretend to be generous, the more sad it will be. That shows that you don't care about her at all, and it doesn't matter to you if you lose her. Women, why do they lose their temper? Aren't they just waiting for men to coax them? Their tears are not necessarily helpless, but more about wanting to be loved. Xue'er turned into Miss Xia to punish the ruthless and unrighteous man, and in order to cooperate with her, you should deliberately pretend to be heartbroken. Or I'll teach you a trick and play a bitter trick in front of her. The knife was put on the wrist, and he said that if Senior Sister Xue'er is dead, you will never live alone, and this is to martyr her. Let's see if she is convinced, do you want to stop?"

Li Yijie shook his head and said: "It doesn't work, I grew up with my junior sister since childhood, and she knows best how I behave." Even if there are occasional frustrations and frustrations, they will never commit suicide at every turn. Once it goes too far, it makes her suspicious, and the misunderstanding is even more out of control. ”

Lu Qian kicked the stones on the side of the road and sighed, "You are so dead-eyed." Okay, in that case, I have another plan, let's go and ask Ling Gao's disciple how about it? That kid, hmph, don't look at his young age, this is a ghost, I'm afraid that the two of us have lived in vain for more than 20 years, and the way of doing things is not as good as him. ”

Li Yijie was embarrassed: "You mean Xuanshuang? but...... But this ......"

It is true that Xuan Shuang was his apprentice, but at the same time, he was also a rebel who collided everywhere in the past, and finally kicked him away and converged with Jiang Yanchen. What's more important is that when he came to Xuanshuang, he lost face and didn't look like a master. If you rush to beg him again, I don't know what kind of ridicule I will give him for the sake of that little "romantic affair" again. It is a small matter to lose his dignity for a while, and he can't raise his head in front of Shen Shiyun anymore, which is the last thing he wants, and he really doesn't want to take this step.

Lu Qian sneered secretly, knowing that Li Yijie was cautious everywhere, if he didn't provoke him, he could only cower in place. It's like the original martial arts alliance leader, isn't it all forced out? Forced a smile, and said: "If you insist on refusing, I can't force others." But Master Ling, I really admire him, so it's better for me to ask him for advice. At that time, when I took the first step, found out the identity of Miss Xia, and hugged the beauty in my arms, you just sighed on the side. ”

Li Yijie was shocked and anxious, and shouted: "No!" Seeing Lu Qian's smile on his face that the conspiracy had succeeded, he realized that he had set a show for him. The competitive spirit in his bones suddenly rose again, and he didn't necessarily have the dignified martial arts alliance leader, and he would fall into the trap of the former bandit leader. He said proudly: "What's the big deal? Everyone will go together, and no one will say that they will retreat on the spot!" Lu Qian replied briskly: "One word is a decision!"

—————

After Cheng Jiaxuan took the antidote that was boiled remotely in the soup, the purple swelling of her lips and Yintang finally faded. But he was still frozen in bed, unable to move. According to several imperial doctors in the palace, she was poisoned for too long and injured her heart and lungs. Although the antidote was taken in time to dissipate the toxins, it was still necessary to apply acupuncture and moxibustion for several days before it could be cured.

However, due to the deep accumulation of trouble, it has greatly damaged the vitality, and then I am afraid that I must always be cautious, and every autumn and winter change season, but I must catch a little cold, and it is easy to cause the recurrence of the old disease. The body is like a dead leaf swaying in the autumn wind, fragile.

Xuanshuang guarded Cheng Jiaxuan all day long, singing for a while, reciting poetry for a while, he had already lost his patience, but he was always reluctant to leave. As if he was worried that he would be there just in time for her to wake up. On this day, everything was as usual, and suddenly there were two more figures behind me. One hand quickly slid to his waist and touched the hilt of the sword before slowly turning his head.

Standing in the room were the "two people who had something to ask for". Lu Qian smiled dryly: "Master Ling, your vigilance is really high. Well, well, that way, no enemy will have the ability to bully you within three steps of you—"

Before he could finish speaking, Xuan Shuang raised his hand and waved, signaling to go out and talk again. Lu Qian clearly understood his gestures, but he always felt that his movements were more similar to chasing flies, and he was full of displeasure. And Li Yijie didn't say a word, and left everything to Lu Qian to negotiate with Xuanshuang.
