"Tingsongju" is very spacious and empty inside. Except for a few futons, there is almost nothing else.

Zhang Changzong's eyes were red. He stood on the ground, holding a long leather whip in his hand. He was swinging it hard every now and then, and the tip of the whip made a crisp sound.

Seeing Lu Xiaoxian enter the room, Zhang Changzong looked furious and yelled at him: "Who let you in, get out!"

Lu Xiaoxian was neither anxious nor annoyed, looking at him calmly, with pity and disdain on his face.

Zhang Changzong was irritated by Lu Xiaoxian's provocative gaze, and covered his head with the whip in his hand.

Lu Xiaoxian did not dodge, and stretched out his hand to grab the whip. The tip of the whip was obediently held between his thumb and index finger.

The anger in Zhang Changzong's heart became even more intense, and he wanted to pull back the whip and teach him a lesson, but no matter how hard he tried, the whip seemed to be in Lu Xiaoxian's hand and could not be pulled at all.

Lu Xiaoxian shook his head slightly and sighed: "My heart is as high as the sky, my life is as thin as paper, and I don't know that I am about to die. Poor! Sad! What a shame!"

Lu Xiaoxian looked at Zhang Changzong as if he were looking at a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. This look made Zhang Changzong a little crazy. Like a rogue, he threw down his whip, cursed and charged at Lu Xiaoxian fiercely.

come over.

"Rokuro! Stop" a voice came from the door.

Zhang Changzong seemed to be stunned and rushed to Lu Xiaoxian regardless.

A figure quickly flashed over, grabbed Zhang Changzong by the collar, and slapped him twice on the face.

Only then did Zhang Changzong stop and look blankly at Zhang Yizhi in front of him.

After a while, he burst into tears. Zhang Changzong was in so much pain that he seemed to want to pour out all his grievances.

Is this still the suave sixth brother from before?

Seeing Zhang Changzong's appearance, Zhang Yizhi's eyes turned red and tears fell down.

Lu Xiaoxian looked at the two Zhang brothers with cold eyes, filled with emotion, and fully understood their confusion and helplessness at the moment.

Back then, when he first traveled through time, he also felt helpless like this. The sky was not working and the earth was not responding. This was the cruelty of life and fate.

After a long time, Zhang Changzong finally stopped crying.

Only then did Zhang Yizhi notice Lu Xiaoxian standing in front of him. He asked in surprise: "Master Lu, why are you here?"

Obviously, Lu Xiaoxian left a deep impression on Zhang Yizhi and recognized him at a glance.

Lu Xiaoxian was waiting for Zhang Yizhi to ask this question. He smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Zhang, are you okay?"

"Fifth brother!" Zhang Changzong wiped his tears and looked at Zhang Yizhi, "Do you know him?"

Zhang Yizhi nodded: "You forgot, I told you last time that there is a genius in Qiu Fengpo, this is Mr. Lu!"

"Master Lu?" Zhang Changzong asked Lu Xiaoxian with a confused look, "Why are you in our house?"

"I begged Mr. Li Qianli to send me into the house as a slave!" Lu Xiaoxian looked harmless, "I have no other intention, I just want to save the lives of you two brothers!"

"Save our lives?" Zhang Yizhi became more and more curious, "Master Lu, I wonder if you can be more detailed!"

Lu Xiaoxian looked around and smiled: "Mr. Zhang, can you please let me sit down and let's talk slowly?"

Zhang Yizhi nodded hurriedly, pointed to the futon next to him and said, "Master Lu, please sit down quickly!"

Lu Xiaoxian was not polite and sat cross-legged on the futon.

Zhang Yizhi followed him and sat down. Seeing Zhang Changzong still standing there stupidly, he winked at him. Only then did Zhang Changzong wake up and also sat aside.

Lu Xiaoxian cleared his throat and asked bluntly: "Mr. Zhang, do you think it is too undignified for a man to be a man's favorite for a woman? Do you think that at such a young age, he is still in his prime?"

Is it too frustrating to have to serve an old woman?"

After listening to Lu Xiaoxian's questions, Zhang Changzong showed a painful expression on his face. He glared at Lu Xiaoxian bitterly. This was clearly exposing someone's scars!

Zhang Yizhi couldn't help but frown.

Lu Xiaoxian ignored the changes in their expressions and continued: "If you really think so, then I can tell you clearly that your death is not far away!"

"Even if you die, you will be better than what you are now!" Zhang Changzong finally couldn't help roaring.

"Oh!" Lu Xiaoxian deliberately lengthened his tone, "Since you think so, then I have nothing to say!"

Zhang Changzong stood up with a shout and walked out the door.

Zhang Yizhi scolded Zhang Changzong: "Sit down!"

Zhang Changzong glanced at Lu Xiaoxian, then at Zhang Yizhi, then came back and sat down angrily.

"Master Lu!" Zhang Yizhi tried his best to calm down his emotions and asked in a slower tone, "We are willing to hear the details!"

"Although Your Majesty is a woman and an old woman, she is not an ordinary woman. How many people have died at her hands! How can she not feel it when you accompany her every day with resentment? Now she

She can still tolerate you, but if one day she doesn’t want to tolerate it anymore, then think about what the consequences will be.”

After hearing this, the Zhang brothers' expressions couldn't help but change.

Lu Xiaoxian was right. They only cared about their own feelings and completely forgot that the Majesty they were serving was a murderous female demon queen.

"Even if His Majesty is merciful and lets you go, you still won't be able to escape death!" Lu Xiaoxian continued, "Take the Imperial Counselor Xue Huaiyi as an example. Even though you are favored by His Majesty, he still has scruples. Without His Majesty, you

What will happen if they fall into his hands?"

The expressions of the Zhang brothers changed again. The scene of them coming out of the palace in the morning seemed to be right in front of them. As Lu Xiaoxian said, if there was no support from His Majesty, wouldn't Xue Huaiyi have to...

They didn't dare to think about it any further.

"Even if you have escaped Xue Huaiyi's disaster, do you still expect to be a noble scholar like before?" Lu Xiaoxian shook his head and said, "You are too naive. It's just the scholars all over the world who are trying to make trouble for you.

You cannot face the verbal and written criticism, which is no different from death!"

Zhang Yizhi couldn't help but close his eyes, and his mind was filled with the images of those scholars who sneered at them. He couldn't help but sigh. Although what Lu Xiaoxian said was very rude, it was the truth. Sometimes, as long as you take that step

, you can never go back.

"There are people like Di Renjie, Lai Junchen, Wu Chengsi, Wu Sansi, Princess Taiping, and even the emperor Li Dan. When you are in power, you may live in peace. Once you fall out of favor, if anyone steps on you, you will not

There will be a way to survive!"

"Okay! Stop talking!" Zhang Yizhi interrupted Lu Xiaoxian, "Mr. Lu, I understand what you said! Tell me, what should we do?"

"It's very simple! Now that you've boarded this ship, let's work together and dock smoothly with this ship!" Lu Xiaoxian hit the nail on the head when he said, "With His Majesty's favor, you will have everything. Without Your Majesty, you will have everything."

There is only a dead end for her favor. Therefore, what you have to do is not to compromise with His Majesty, but to please her from the bottom of your heart!"

"But..." Zhang Yizhi asked hesitantly, "Your Majesty is almost eighty years old. If she..."

Although Zhang Yizhi didn't finish what he said, how could Lu Xiaoxian not understand what he meant.

Lu Xiaoxian smiled: "With His Majesty's favor and trust, you don't have to be afraid of Xue Huaiyi during her lifetime. Then, through your efforts, you can do a few things that are beneficial to the scholars. Of course, those scholars will be grateful to you two brothers."

People. As for people like Di Renjie, Lai Junchen, Wu Chengsi, Wu Sansi, Princess Taiping, and Li Dan, pay attention to planting more flowers and less thorns when getting along, and say more good things about them in front of His Majesty at critical moments. Who of them?

Will he not accept your kindness? Even if His Majesty really dies in the future, you will come ashore safely!"

Lu Xiaoxian's words were very thorough, and seemed to have opened a window in the hearts of the Zhang brothers.

Yes! Since you can't fight, you might as well face reality. With such a bright future, why should you complain and sigh all day long?

After listening to Lu Xiaoxian's words, the Zhang brothers suddenly felt enlightened.

"Master Lu, our brothers are indeed a bit over the top!" Zhang Yizhi felt that he had enlightened himself and humbly asked for advice: "Through these days of getting along, I feel that it is difficult to guess your Majesty's thoughts. It is not difficult to get her favor, but to get your Majesty's favor.

Trust is not that simple."

"You are right. Although His Majesty loves you now, he has not yet reached the level of trust. As for how to gain His Majesty's trust, that is what you should think about. I can only tell you how to judge whether Your Majesty has already

I trust you!" Lu Xiaoxian made no secret, "It's very simple! As long as His Majesty is willing to promote you, it means that he trusts you, and the faster you are promoted, the more trust you have!"

Having said this, Lu Xiaoxian paused, "His Majesty not only made Xue Huaiyi the national counselor, but also made him the third-rank Zuoweiwei general, and granted him the title of Liang Guogong. You know, he turned out to be just an ordinary monk. You guys

Think about it, what does this mean?"

Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Changzong were deep in thought, and they did not notice an imperceptible smile on Lu Xiaoxian's face.

The reason why Lu Xiaoxian wants to help the Zhang brothers untie their knots is not because of his kindness or how much he has a good impression of them, but because he has other purposes. He is unfamiliar with the place in Luoyang, the capital of the gods, and he wants to truly gain a foothold in Luoyang.

You definitely can’t do it alone.

His idea is simple: by tying up interests and pushing the Zhang brothers to gain power, he will of course rise.

It was also for this purpose that Lu Xiaoxian asked Li Qianli to send him to the Zhang Mansion.

But judging from the current mentality of the Zhang brothers, it is at least five stars difficult to gain power. Therefore, he must help them open up their hearts. As long as they pass the psychological level, with their brothers' abilities, they can pass the "beauty trap"

"It is easy to gain power. In real history, the Zhang brothers were also influential figures.

There is no risk to Lu Xiaoxian in doing this. As long as the straw rope you tie to the hairy crabs, the straw rope will be whatever the price of the hairy crabs is. Therefore, bundling a win-win situation is an excellent strategy.
