Chapter 366: Lu Xiangyu's Troubles
The city lord of Zhanghua City is named Lu Xiangyu, who is a member of the Lu family, a nobleman of the Wu Kingdom. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Lu Xiangyu is two hundred and thirty-two years old this year, and Jin Dan is a double heaven, and he is already an extremely powerful existence in the land of the southern Xinjiang of Wu State.
As the lord of Zhanghua City, one of the three major cities in southern Xinjiang
However, Lu Xiangyu also has some things on his mind, that is, his son and granddaughter.
The sons of monks are very valuable, because the more powerful the being, the more difficult it is to give birth to children.
This law is not only limited to alien races like the Dragon Titans, but also to humans, or rather, the strongest among humans.
However, after the "foundation building", the higher the cultivation, the less likely it is to give birth to an heir. And if you can't give birth to children and grandchildren before Jindan, then it is likely that you will never be able to give birth.
And if it breaks too early, it will also cause a flaw in cultivation due to the damage of Yuan Yang (Yuan Yin).
Therefore, for the monk, becoming strong and giving birth to an heir is a difficult choice.
Lu Xiangyu was born as a son after he reached delusion, and he was no longer affected by his body after he broke his delusion, so no matter how many women there were, it would not damage the true element of this body.
But his son Lu Shizang was congenitally deficient because Lu Xiangyu had already hidden the essence at that time, and his qualifications were extremely mediocre.
So obviously, it is impossible for Lu Shizang to inherit Lu Xiangyu's cultivation status, and Lu Xiangyu has always been sorry for his son, so he is also negligent in education. Lu Shizang's original name was Lu Shichang, but because of his unscrupulous behavior, Lu Xiangyu finally had to leave his son to a Buddhist to tell him, and changed his name to Lu Shizang.
It is a pity that although Lu Shizang has a very Buddhist name, his actions are still very upside down.
The son is definitely useless, but after Lu Xiangyu despaired of his son, he found out that although his son was a fool, there was a genius among his grandchildren.
Lu Xiangyu has only one son, Lu Shizang, but since Lu Shizang has no hope of cultivation, he naturally accepts wives and concubines, so Lu Xiangyu actually has more than 20 children.
And in this wide net, there is actually a servant girl from a common people, who gave birth to a granddaughter with extremely outstanding talents.
Lu Xiaoqian.
Thinking of the granddaughter who was extremely talented but showed clear hostility towards the Lu family, Lu Xiangyu just wanted to sigh helplessly.
When Lu Xiangyu was thinking hard about the relationship with his granddaughter, the next person came to report: "Master, Mr. Liu Da of Baihua Palace is coming to visit." ”
Lu Xiangyu was slightly stunned: "But that Confucian master Liu Zhenliu, who is said to be extremely good at Confucianism and Taoism?"
"Exactly. ”
Lu Xiangyu thought for a moment and said, "Open the main gate and invite Mr. Liu in, just say that I will set up tea in the back garden to entertain guests." ”
"Yes. ”
After the next person went down, Lu Xiangyu squinted his eyes and secretly pondered: "Mr. Liu from this Hundred Flowers Palace is visiting...... Well, it's probably because the Western Regions are being invaded by aliens this time, and the Hundred Flowers Palace wants to go to support...... However, why did he come to me? Although there is no specific information about this Mr. Liu, it must be true under the fame, maybe ......"
A moment later, Lu Xiangyu faced Yun Xiao's guest in the back garden.
"Mr. Liu, please use tea. Lu Xiangyu poured tea for Yun Xiao in the main seat, and with the teapot that was lifted high, a string of emerald tea juice was discharged, and a blue-green breath rose, and a fresh tea fragrance that seemed to be green bamboo after the rain and like virgin frankincense overflowed the backyard.
"Good tea!" Yun Xiao praised: "I have heard for a long time that the best tea in Wu is the legendary 'Blue Sky After the Rain' under the title of the virgin with the wood attribute of the virgin, and it is really extraordinary when I see it today." Such a good tea is really unparalleled in the world. ”
"Hahahaha, compared to the hundred flowers and dew that your palace has a price now, it is ugly. ”
"How dare you, the little industry in this palace is nothing more than a helpless move, compared with the tens of thousands of years of history after the rain, it is the class to get the axe. ”
After the two exchanged pleasantries, Yun Xiao took the initiative to speak:
"I should have come to visit the city lord earlier, but my Baihua Palace is in ruins, and I am busy with mundane affairs, and I don't want to disturb my lord with mundane affairs. Yun Xiao's tone was very polite.
"The old man has already met the Lin Palace Master a few times, and he is really talented, and the future is limitless. The lord of the palace has also mentioned Mr. many times, full of admiration, and the old man has long wanted to meet with Mr., and it is also a time when there are too many miscellaneous things to do, but he didn't expect Mr. to come, and Lu is also very honored. Lu Xiangyu also put on an honorary posture.
"Thanks to the city lord, I praised it, but I also have nothing to do in the Three Treasures Palace. Yun Xiao didn't say much, and went straight to the point.
In the previous understanding from Shen Jiarui and others, Lu Xiangyu was originally a pragmatic person, and such a person is realistic to put it bluntly. It doesn't take too much courtesy.
Mr. Liu might as well speak bluntly. ”
Yun Xiao sighed: "The City Lord should know about my Hundred Flowers Palace's intention to go to the Western Regions this time, right?"
"I've heard of it. Lu Xiangyu's official routine words quietly: "The Hundred Flowers Palace is indeed worthy of being a Wanzai sect, and its courage and arrogance are unusually comparable. I admire Huacheng all over the city, and they are all proud of the Hundred Flowers Palace. ”
Yun Xiao sighed: "Actually, this matter was opposed at first. ”
"............" Lu Xiangyu was a little surprised, but he didn't speak.
To be honest, for hundreds of years, this matter of resisting foreign enemies has actually been only an empty righteousness. Yun smiled bitterly: "However, this righteousness is only righteousness, to be honest, initially, it was opposed below." ”
Lu Xiangyu looked at Yun Xiao with a heartfelt look, not knowing what Yun Xiao wanted.
In general, I would not say such a thing. Even if it is, it will only be said to close friends.
"However, my junior sister is a pure and virtuous person who has never been in the world, and her heart is very good, and my junior brother is also a hot-blooded young man, full of thoughts of serving the country......" Yun smiled and said, his face was full of undisguised pampering and love: "Although I am an old conscience and a cold-blooded 'old Jianghu', but for some reason, I can't object to my sister's pure and good chivalrous behavior." ”
Lu Xiangyu looked at Yun Xiao's self-deprecating and doting smile on his face, but suddenly felt a relative.
Lu Xiangyu's granddaughter Lu Xiaoxi was born to a servant girl since she was a child, and both mother and daughter have suffered, not to mention the treatment of Miss Qianjin, even if she is inferior to ordinary regular servants.
And when Lu Xiaoxi was nine years old, he awakened the Lu family's talent "Flame Rain Smoke and Dust", and was finally known and valued by Lu Xiangyu.
But when Lu Xiangyu said, "Good boy, no matter what you ask, grandpa will agree to you", Lu Xiaoxi's request was actually "let me and my mother leave the Lu family", and Lu Xiaoxi even said that he didn't want the Lu family to pay a penny.
Lu Xiangyu didn't expect to be rejected by his granddaughter in public, Lu Xiangyu, who has been a master all year round, only felt that his face couldn't get over it, so he immediately agreed, and only waited for Lu Xiaoxi to come back after he couldn't stand the suffering.
But what Lu Xiangyu didn't expect was that Lu Xiaoxi actually went out of the city to hunt at the age of nine, although he had not yet built a foundation, but after awakening his natural powers, Lu Xiaoxi actually succeeded in hunting low-level demon beasts, and became stronger little by little.
Of course, this is also because although Lu Xiangyu kept asking Lu Xiaoxi to leave the Lu family, he also secretly sent someone to take care of this genius child who awakened the family blood at the age of nine. And the people in Zhang Huacheng also knew that Lu Xiaoxi was Lu Xiangyu's most valued grandson, and they didn't dare to bully him.
In this way, Lu Xiaoxi took his mother to live in the slums in Zhanghua City and grew up. Lu Xiaoxi did not oppress others because of his ability as a monk, on the contrary, Lu Xiaoxi was an angel in the slums. If Lu Xiaoxi's daily hunting is used as a cultivation resource, although it is insufficient, it is enough for her to help many, many people in the slums.
Lu Xiangyu just looked at Lu Xiaoxi, feeling the amazing will and courage in this small body. Lu Xiaoxi's courage and will even changed Lu Xiangyu, making Lu Xiangyu reflect on his behavior, and even if Lu Xiangyu was able to advance to Jindan, it has to be said that he was influenced by Lu Xiaoxi.
However, Lu Xiaoxi always refused to accept Lu Xiangyu's help.
"City Lord, thank you for your kindness, but I don't think I need charity from the Lu family! The little girl is doing very well now, a thousand times better than when she was in the Lu family!"
Every time he stood in front of his granddaughter, looking at his granddaughter's eyes like black pearls, Lu Xiangyu felt proud and depressed in his heart.
In the past ten years, what Lu Xiangyu has paid the most attention to and cared about the most has always been this disobedient granddaughter. Every time he saw the grandchildren in the family who only knew how to eat, drink, have fun, be luxurious, and debauchery, and then saw the "disobedient" granddaughter with bright eyes like stars in the slums, Lu Xiangyu was full of tangled intestines and regretted it.
But Lu Xiangyu really couldn't force Lu Xiaoxi, every time he saw Lu Xiaoxi's eyes full of strength and pride, Lu Xiangyu felt very small.
Therefore, when he heard Yun Xiao say this, Lu Xiangyu suddenly remembered his granddaughter.
Yun Xiao continued: "Yes, from my utilitarian standpoint, there is no benefit in going to the Western Regions except for spending a lot of savings and untold dangers. But...... I don't know why, when the junior sister and junior brother firmly asked to defend the country against foreign enemies, I really didn't have the courage to refuse......"
Hearing this, Lu Xiangyu couldn't help but sigh: "Yes, there are some people in this world, they always do extremely stupid things in the eyes of others, but such people, such things ......" Lu Xiangyu muttered, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of kindness: "But we have to respect them......"
Yun Xiao showed a look of surprise: "The city lord's words seem to be very understanding, huh?"
Lu Xiangyu sighed: "Don't hide it from Mr. Liu, in fact, the old granddaughter is also such a stupid girl......"
With a proud sigh, Lu Xiangyu slowly told Yun Xiao about Lu Xiaoxi, and at the end, he sighed in a reassuring tone: "This child is so strong, but it seems that the old man is incompetent." The old man's endless family property, in the eyes of Xiaoxi's child, is just a joke. Alas, sometimes the old man even thinks that if this child is also mercenary, the old man can worry less about it. ”
Yun Xiao smiled and said: "The city lord said that the quality of Miss Xiaoxi is the supreme treasure, if Miss Xiaoxi really moves back to the house for this bit of family property, then she is not worthy of the city lord's treatment." In fact, Miss Xiaoxi's character, even if she doesn't have those blockages, she can definitely become a generation of Tianjiao. Cultivating a character is the most important thing, if you don't know the character of the Mandate of Heaven, even if you have countless spirit stones, you won't be able to reach the highest place. And she...... It's always been Lu's surname, isn't it?"
"Alas, what the old man is worried about is that she doesn't want to be surnamed Lu!"
In fact, adults don't need to worry at all, since the child can do this for his mother, and he easily refuses to show affection, it shows that he is affectionate and righteous. The more you care about friendship, the more reluctant you are to accept this. And when she grows up, she naturally understands that she has had a smooth ride all these years, all because of the presence of the city lord. Therefore, the city lord only needs to guard silently behind him, and for people like Miss Xiaoxi, the effort will be rewarded after all. ”
Lu Xiangyu was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he nodded slowly: "Mr. Liu is really wise, worthy of the name of Confucianism and Taoism, but the old man has put the cart before the horse." Speaking of which, Mr. Liu, in fact, the old man has long thought about asking Mr. Liu to help my stubborn granddaughter. (To be continued.) )
