Chapter Seventy-Nine Encounter

  Lu Xuan smiled slightly and didn't answer.

  Yesterday, Lu Xuan's idea was unknown to others, but the masters of Pingfu and Huang Qie and Qing were aware of it. Therefore, Ah Qing and Huang Qie, who stood on one side, looked at Lu Xuan with a complex expression.

  That plan is sinister and feasible, most importantly, it was spoken by Lu Yue herself!

  What kind of person is this little sister who has always been sympathized and pitied by them, but never taken seriously?

  Can't help but say, yesterday's Lu Xuan really stunned the people of Pingfu. As a result, Ah Qing and Huang Shu looked at Lu Xuan with an added hint of fear that they had never shown before.

  Lu Xuan saw the fear in their eyes.

  She was satisfied that they knew to fear her. She wasn't one of those little girls who only thought about leaving a good impression on people, and even whether or not she got married didn't matter. Therefore, being feared by others was the prerequisite for not being bullied at will.

  This world has always been easy to deceive the good and fear the evil. Are there a few kind and generous people who won't be taken advantage of? Often those who are not deceived by others will have one or two ruthless performances.

  After seeing off Ah Qing and Huang Shu, Lu Xiang specially rushed to the market, took the fabric given by Qi Shu, and made two sets of spring clothes for herself and Lu Yun.

  Today, Lu Yun came back a bit early, his cheeks were red and puffy, and there was still sweat on the tip of his nose. He leaned against his sister and said, "Sister, today Mr. said," he deliberately stopped there.

  Lu Xuan turned his head back, suppressing a smile as he looked at him expectantly, "What did he say?"

  Lu Yun's every hair was radiant with joy and pride, "The master said I have talent, he said he would recommend me to study under Mr. Huang Wenxian."

  Huang Gong Huang Wenxian?

  This man Lu Yun has a reputation, although not as great as the late Qiu Gong, in Chengdu he is also a well-known Confucian scholar. To become his disciple, my brother has a good chance of becoming a Xiucai!

  For a moment. Lu Xuan was really excited. She asked joyfully: "Really?"

  "Really!"

  Lu Xuan took a deep breath and muttered to herself: "Father will know, he'll definitely be delighted." Her father, in her memory, had never been moved by anything, but she thought that Ah Yun's matter would surely delight him.

  Pressing her lips together, Lu Xuan said in a low voice, "A Yun, let's go and report this great joy to Father's spirit tablet."

  "En." Lu Yun was also slightly excited.

  After the siblings paid their respects to their parents, Lu Xuan turned around and asked: "Now that this is settled, I should start preparing for my trip to Chengdu." Huang Gong was in Chengdu, and had become his junior fellow apprentice; his younger brother would definitely have to stay in Chengdu for a few years. Since her younger brother was going, she naturally had to follow as well. Originally, Lu Xuan had thought that she would be following that noble person to Chengdu, but hadn't expected such a good opportunity to arise.

  After some thought, Lu Xuan said: "Fortunately, I just got 400 taels of gold. It should be enough to buy a small house in Chengdu." If not, then sell the current house.

  Lü Yuè was pondering here, Lü Yún had washed his face and began to recite sincerely.

  Listening to her brother reading aloud, Lu Xuan thought happily: Maybe one day, my brother will make something of himself, and when that happens, I'll be very happy.

  With the plan to go to Chengdu, everything is pressing. The historical records of over 500,000 words need to be copied, which will take at least two months, and time waits for no man.

  After some thought, Lu Xuan put down her copying thoughts and got up with a single mind. Her memory is excellent now, and her understanding is even more outstanding. She thinks that if she can get this book into her brain, it's not bad either.

  For several days, Lu Xuan read books day and night. Occasionally, Ping Shi would send A Qing and Huang Shu, Qi Shu to visit her every two or three days. Each time they came, they brought some gifts. By now, Lu Xuan had received four or five pieces of high-quality fabric. As for various grains, meat, and food, she still had a lot left over after eating them every day.

  This subtle movement, frequent kindness, has an unexpectedly good effect. Now Lu Xuan not only chats and laughs with them but will also take the initiative to visit Pingfu in a few days.

  Her attitude made the people of Pingfu feel at ease, and for a while, she completely restored the warmth and harmony of a family with Pingfu. At the same time, Lu Xuan also learned about the major and minor events in Pingfu through casual conversations with these people.

  These idle chats, to ordinary people, might just be some trivial words and phrases. But in Lu Xing's ears, she gained more from them than the average lord of a humble manor would know.

  And these secrets and right or wrong were exactly what Lu Xuan wanted to know. She didn't want to deal with Ping Fu for now, but if she needed to in the future, what she heard today would play a huge role.

  On this day, Lu Yue, who had been reciting day and night and felt that she had almost memorized it, tucked the Shiji into her sleeve and asked her younger brother to invite Wang Shang.

  The brother and sister met Wang Shang in a wine house in Hanyang.

  This is the best wine house in Hanyang, a two-story wooden building with independent rooms upstairs.

  When Lu Xiang came, she wore a gauze hat. The new spring dress was worn on her body, fluttering with her movements, with a different youthful aura.

  As soon as she went up the stairs, Lu Yue, wearing a veil, saw Wang Shang standing at the door of the wing room, staring at her with a complex expression through the brim of his hat.

  Like Yin Cheng, Wang Shang, who was sixteen or seventeen years old, had a tall and slender figure, with a gentle face and a fair and clean complexion that was pampered by the rich.

  At this time, this slender and pale young man had been watching Lu Yue walk closer.

  After taking a glance at her sister, Lu Yun hastened forward and called out: "Brother Wang."

  Wang Shangchong smiled slightly and said in a low voice: "A Yun, is this your sister?"

  "Ah, this is my sister. My sister says that the gift you gave was too expensive and she wants to thank you in person."

  Lu Yun's voice was crisp and cheerful, but Wang Shang seemed a bit distracted, occasionally glancing at Lu Yue.

  At this time, Lu Ying also came before him, and after saluting Wang Shangfu, Lu Ying called out coldly: "Wang Jialang Jun."

  "Is it Ah Yu? Please come in, please come in."

  Wang Shang apparently didn't want to be dismissed by Lu Yue with just a few words, so he hastily opened the door of the carriage and respectfully invited the sister and brother to enter. On the table in the carriage, wine and meat were fragrant, and the hot soup in the cauldron was steaming.

  It was obvious that they couldn't disobey his wishes, so the sister and brother followed him into the house. Lu Xiang followed Lu Yun into the room, and when the door closed, she took off her veil.

  Wang Shang had been paying attention to her all along, and when he saw her take off her veil, his eyes widened in a daze.

  However, Wang Shang soon lowered his eyes and walked over to sit down, saying warmly: "A Xuan, A Yun, please sit down."

  He poured wine for his siblings and said in a low voice with a bitter smile, "That Ah Zhuo has really fooled us badly!"

  What he said was clearly referring to Yinyin, but also alluding to Luyuan at the same time.

  Lu Xuan lowered her eyes and said in a clear voice: "It can't be helped, Brother Wang, don't blame me."

  Listening to her cold and distant tone, looking at her feminine face, Wang couldn't help but think of Lu Yue in men's clothing. He lowered his eyes, hiding the loss in them. After a while, he raised his wine cup and drank it all in one gulp, "This is not Ah Yue's fault, we are just blind."

  Lu Xuan came to see Wang Shang this time, first to express her gratitude, and secondly, to apologize to him in person. After all, in the few encounters they had, Wang Shang was very affectionate towards her, treating her completely like a friend.

  After some thought, Lu Xuan raised her dark eyes and looked at Wang Shang, saying in a clear voice: "No matter what, it was Ah Yuan who deceived first." She paused for a moment, then said: "Please don't take offense, brother."

  She apologized twice in a row, and Wang Shang said that seeing the strange would make him appear narrow-minded. At this time, he smiled bitterly.

  Just as Wang Shang was about to pour the wine, Lu Yun, who was near the window, suddenly exclaimed: "Hey, isn't that Tian Xiaoqi? What is he doing here?" Turning his head, Lu Yun said to his sister: "Sister, I've been wanting to catch this little scoundrel for a long time. I'll go out for a bit." After saying that, he also said something to Wang Shang, and without waiting for Lu Xue's response, he rushed out.

  Suddenly, there were only Lu Xuan and Wang Shang left in the room.

  This stinker has left them, a lonely man and woman, in one room.

  Lu Xuan muttered slowly.

  At this moment, Wang Shang said in a low voice: "A Xue, I really didn't expect it. I always thought you were A Yun. I...". He remembered the young man in red robes, who was beautiful and coldly distant. For some reason, he suddenly wanted to drink.

  In fact, since he knew that Lu Xuan was actually Lu Yun, he had been drunk several times.

  After a long sigh, Wang Shang looked up at Lu Yue, the smile on his lips was somewhat bitter, "So you're him, no wonder he treated you differently with that person's identity."

  Hearing the loss in his tone, although somewhat puzzled by the source of his loss, Lu Xuan still spoke softly: "Sorry."

  These two words had just come out when Lu Ying suddenly heard a girl's angry shout from outside, "You're talking nonsense! I knew he was here!"

  As soon as this cry came out, Wang Shang's face changed. At the same time, a series of footsteps rushed forward.

  As the footsteps drew closer, Lu Xuan's expression also changed. She quickly put on her veil and looked at Wang Shang with a cautious gaze.

  She had just met this king, how did someone come knocking on her door so quickly? Could it be that this was a trap set for her by some person?

  Although she couldn't understand why someone would make things difficult for themselves, Lu Xuan was still a bit annoyed.

  Just then, the door was kicked open with a loud bang, and a girl in magnificent attire rushed in with two guards!

  The girl rushed in and stared straight at Lu Yue. Looking at her wearing a veil, the girl sneered: "How come, dare to do but not dare to admit it?"

  Having said that, she rushed towards Lu Yue and was about to lift her hat.

  Before she could act, Lu Xuan had already taken off her veil herself.

  A pair of resentful eyes stared at Wang Shang, the girl's eyes reddened as she stomped her feet and turned to face him, saying in a hateful tone: "Wang, you've escaped marriage twice, making me a laughing stock throughout Chengdu, all for her?"

  Today there is only one update. There is still another update owed. Well, I already owe everyone two updates now.
