Chapter 124 Sword Qi Fuguang, once made the world's first class
The sword energy rushes across the bullfight and falls into the mountain mist and clouds!
Nan Fengmian clearly saw the icy sword energy reflecting the sharp cold light on the ice peak just now, reflecting the heaven and earth.
The sword energy wanders and blooms on this green mountaintop, as if there is frost on the ground, and the sky is white.
Nan Fengmian stood on the red clouds, the confusion on his face had disappeared, replaced by surprise, and... confusion.
He was pleasantly surprised that from the sword light on the ice peak, he could clearly see the rare complexity, the sharpness of the sword flying in the sky, and the blazing light of the sword, which seemed to illuminate all the injustices in the world.
It almost turns into a scorching sun, shining in all directions, making everyone in the world see hope out of nothing.
"This is Mr. Fourth's sword energy...but it doesn't have the meaning of heaven covering the world and looking down on the world. It's as if this sword energy comes from all living beings in the world and from the trapped world."
For a moment, Nan Fengmian forgot to approach Bingfeng.
I stood on the red clouds from a distance, watching Lu Jing in the distance holding a sword and a pen, composing a few lines of text.
"In the midst of the enthusiasm of Hao Ge, I saw the cold, in the sky I saw the earth, in the ordinary world I saw nothing, and in the hopelessness I was saved!"
Nan Fengmian saw the words Lu Jing's seal carved on the ice peak, and for no reason he remembered what he had experienced during his twelve years of traveling around the world, going on great ambush, and entering the Northern Qin Dynasty.
He has walked thousands of miles across the red land, and when he goes out he sees nothing, and the plains are covered with white bones!
He once saw in war-torn areas where men's heads were hanging on the sides of horses and women were carried on the backs of horses!
He has also seen mountains, snow, rivers, and icy fields desolate, and the mountains and rivers are as green as white bones in the smoke of war!
The scenes he witnessed in the past made him like the words Lu Jing carved on the ice peak even more.
"Even though I am in the gate of heaven, drinking with all the immortals, my eyes are still on the human world, hoping that all sentient beings in the world will be saved."
"I have been looking at Bingfeng for many days, and I just thought that Mr. Fourth's sword was really the sword from the sky, the sword light he got from observing the sky!"
"But... Mr. Fourth got this sword light in the sky because he saw the prosperity and abundance in the sky and the poverty and poverty in the world, so he got the sword.
I couldn't see the sword intention in those notes because I guessed wrong from the beginning."
Nan Fengmian's eyes were gazing until the sword energy fell and his eyes fell on Lu Jing again.
The young man in the distance was also looking down at the few sentences he had written.
The wind on the mountain was lonely, but when it blew on his slender body, it did not feel desolate. Instead, Nan Fengmian felt that this man was full of Confucianism and indeed had the grace of a young gentleman.
"He is a seventeen-year-old boy, but he can see through the blood and tears of the world in Mr. Fourth's notes, and he can also understand the killing method, sharpness and transformation of the sword... This boy is really amazing!"
Nan Fengmian raised his eyebrows slightly. He thought for a while and carefully recorded the lines of text on the ice peak in his heart. He did not disturb Lu Jing who was comprehending, but he was quite interested in Lu Jing in his heart.
"With his age, how can he see the blood and tears in this world?"
Nan Fengmian thought to himself, turned around and continued to walk away on the red clouds.
Walking on the red clouds, the famous sword on his waist was still humming softly. The sword energy that was seen in the world just now made the world-famous sword "Xinggu Zhenren" admired by it.
The wine flask and beef in Nan Fengmian's hands had disappeared and were collected into his treasures.
He placed his right hand on Master Xinggu and touched it gently, then suddenly thought of his niece Nan Heyu.
"He Yu has a feathered sword heart, but he can't see through the sword intention in Bingfeng's words at all. This time, brother... seems to have made a mistake."
Nan Fengmian shook his head slightly when he thought of this, and then a refreshing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"It's also a good thing. If he really enters the Nan family and is immersed in luxury for a long time, wouldn't this young man who can see the blood and tears of all living beings in the world be ruined?
It would be great if the engagement was cancelled! Wouldn't it be great if there could be one more young swordsman in this world who was once promised to be the best in the world, and he could one day cross the Pure Yang and ascend to the Pass of Heaven?"
When Nan Fengmian thought of this, he felt more and more happy and couldn't help but laugh.
Among the surrounding peaks of Jiao Shen Mountain, there are many mountain spirits and monsters lurking there.
At this moment, they naturally heard Nan Fengmian's laughter, but they also sensed the power of the sword energy in the red clouds to set a prairie fire, and also sensed the vigorous vitality revealed in the famous sword awakening bone master, so they did not dare to breathe even more.
I was afraid that the great monk in front of me, who was born with the breeze of summer, would kill them with one knife.
At this time, Lu Jing looked down at the black sandalwood sword in his hand.
The sword energy lingering in the wooden sword seemed to have been engraved in his mind.
A lot of sword energy is like frost, extraordinary killing energy, sharp energy lingering on his soul, making his soul more and more high-spirited with sword energy!
"This is Mr. Fourth's human sword energy."
Lu Jing's eyes also shone with light. The more he sensed the sword energy in the world, the more he sincerely respected Mr. Fourth, whom he had never met before.
"But this is not all Mr. Fourth's sword energy, but if there are talented people who can understand the sword energy, they can also understand the changes.
When ten thousand geniuses look at the sword energy, there will be ten thousand changes."
The admiration in Lu Jing's eyes slowly faded, and he gently sheathed the black sandalwood sword.
The consciousness in his heart was chaotic, and finally mixed together, he whispered softly: "Mr. Fourth hopes that this sword energy can shine like the blazing sun, illuminating the darkness of the troubled people in the world. In this case, the first sword energy of this world is called Fu.
Lightsaber energy."
He who supports the light is the great sun!
In the future, if Lu Jing's sword energy can shine like the bright sun on the heaven and earth, then he will be worthy of the title of "human being".
Lu Jing thought for a long time before turning around.
But he saw Zhuo Yaoluo, looking down at Lu Jing. Two balls of fire suddenly appeared in his empty eyes, burning brightly.
The three-eyed stone man leaned down and spread his palms again.
Lu Jing smiled at Zhuo Yaoluo, touched Zhuo Yaoluo's palm, and stepped onto it again.
This time, Zhuo Yaoluo put Lu Jing on his broad shoulders.
"gentlemen……"
Zhuo Yaoluo seemed to only be able to say his own name and "Mr."
The qi and blood in Zhuo Yaoluo's body rose again, and the innate qi and blood communicated with the external energy, turned into a red light, and disappeared in an instant.
On the ice peak, there are a few more lines of sword energy ink.
Lu Jing stood on Zhuo Yaoluo's shoulder, Mr. Fourth's notes always appeared in his mind.
Then he thought of Li Yushi again.
Today, I met and talked with Li Yushi. When Li Yushi told me about the Nine God Lotus, Lu Jing felt keenly that many of these things seemed to be too coincidental.
His soul was greatly damaged, so Li Yushi came to see him again. It happened that there was the third prince of Beiquehai who could see through his soul, and it happened that the seventh prince who had recruited him had an extremely rare Nine Gods Lotus in his hands!
He couldn't be sure whether this was some kind of coincidence or whether Li Yushi did it deliberately, but there was always doubt in his mind.
"Xu Baiyan is still the most suspicious. The evil thoughts in his eyes are definitely not hypocrisy. Li Yushi wants to recruit me. If the person was sent by Li Yushi, why did he want to kill me directly? If I died that night, how could Li Yushi continue to use the Nine
Shenlian recruits me?"
A series of questions were swirling in Lu Jing's mind. At that time, Lu Jing suddenly remembered Li Yushi's previous words.
"If Master Li Yu really sent someone to take action, maybe it was a storm and a whirlpool that swept past. Maybe these noble people who look down on the world just did it casually. If there is an accident, I will die if I die. If I don't die, my soul will suffer a great loss.
Then use the Nine God Lotus to recruit me..."
Lu Jing's guess at that time was also triggered by the destiny pattern of seeking good luck and avoiding bad luck.
So after Lu Jing thought about it, he temporarily agreed.
"Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune predicts good and bad luck. If I agree at that time, it will be a sign of great misfortune. If I refuse at that time, it will also be a sign of great misfortune."
If I directly agree to join the palace, the prince's family will definitely take action against me."
"If I refuse directly, the destiny prediction of seeking good luck and avoiding bad luck will also say that this is a sign of great misfortune...why is this?"
Lu Jing was very confused about this.
"If I agree to Li Yushi, I will be standing on the opposite side of the prince. It is not difficult to understand that the prince's family has murderous intentions against me.
But my rejection of Li Yushi this time is also a sign of great evil... Why is this? I have rejected Li Yushi once before, and now I refuse again, but I have never joined the prince's lineage. Why do these seven princes also want to kill me?
?”
Lu Jing was keenly aware of the problem.
"Perhaps...it was Master Li Yu who took action. He planned to recruit me. If I was not moved by the Nine God Lotus, he would naturally kill me as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if I have another chance to repair my soul and grow up in the future, I may learn about Li Yushi's plan and I will definitely oppose the Seventh Prince.
These noble children often use any means to kill me as soon as possible to eliminate future disasters. It is not impossible..."
At that time, Lu Jing was suspicious.
But many of these thoughts are just his speculations, and there is no evidence to support them, so he still needs to wait for the investigation of the Chong'an Palace.
In the end, Lu Jing chose the only fierce elephant at the time.
This fierce elephant made a promise to completely restore the Yuanshen with the Nine God Lotus, and would not be willing to enter the mansion until the Yuanshen was completely restored.
In this way, Lu Jing would have more time, so that he would not be in the center of the storm immediately. Even if he had to make a choice, he still had to investigate the assassination matter.
Moreover... the gains from this fierce elephant are quite impressive. In addition to the possibility of obtaining a precious medicine, the Nine God Lotus, Lu Jing also gained a full three hundred points of life energy, as well as a bright yellow chance and a bright yellow
Fate!
The name of Minghuang is [divine jade is the bone], which can improve the temperament, make the bones and the spirit gradually become like gods, dazzling, the temperament is dazzling, and the gods are like radiance. It is also very strange.
"Master Li Yu treated me with evil thoughts, so I temporarily agreed to protect myself. If this matter was not done by Master Li Yu, I would return the Nine God Lotus on the grounds that the soul has been restored. In this way, I have not received his kindness, nor have I ever
Accepting it, taking the Nine Gods Lotus, and not using its power to repair the soul, naturally it is not a breach of trust."
"But if this matter is related to Li Yushi..."
After Lu Jing thought about this, his calm expression changed slightly.
"The prince must also know about this."
Lu Jing, standing on Zhuo Yaoluo's shoulder, thought this way.
When two dragons fight, no matter which one they fight against, they will inevitably arouse the wrath of the other dragon.
But if we can make good use of the power of these two heavenly dragons, this matter can still be resolved for a long time.
It was getting late at this time, and it was already past the time for class.
Lu Jing felt guilty. After all, he received a huge monthly salary from the library. It would be too much if he didn't teach a single lesson every day.
So Lu Jing quietly told Zhuo Yaoluo to go directly to the library.
Zhuo Yaoluo landed at the entrance of Hanmo Academy.
Lu Jing was about to wave goodbye to Zhuo Yaoluo
But he saw that Zhuo Yaoluo lowered his head and his body became smaller and smaller, until it was reduced to the size of a thumb.
The congenital blood on the thumb-sized Zhuo Yaoluo slowly converged.
This little Zhuo Yaoluo jumped up and landed on the back of Lu Jing's hand.
Lu Jing's eyes were a little surprised and he spread his palms.
The three-eyed stone man who was originally full of agility suddenly stiffened and lay peacefully in Lu Jing's palm like a stone man pendant.
This three-eyed stone man in the divine realm... wanted to stay by Lu Jing's side.
This was unexpected to Lu Jing.
If Li Yushi knew about it, I'm afraid he would be very surprised.
He thought that the three-eyed stone man called Lu Jing sir, and Lu Jing had a stone guardian in the library.
Because since the death of Mr. Fourth, this three-eyed stone man has never left the library...
But he never thought that the three-eyed stone man would turn into a pendant and stay by Lu Jing's side ever since.
Lu Jing lowered his head and looked at Zhuo Yaoluo, not knowing what to say.
But he heard Zhuo Yaoluo, who had already turned cold, flash red light again.
"gentlemen……"
Just two words, cold and hard, seemingly without any emotion.
But when it fell in Lu Jing's ears, for some reason, Lu Jing felt that Zhuo Yaoluo's mouth was full of yearning and reluctance.
"Do you think of me as Mr. Fourth?"
Lu Jing thought for a while and said to Zhuo Yaoluo carefully: "I am not Mr. Fourth, and I am far less noble than Mr. Fourth. If you want to repay your kindness, maybe it would be better to continue guarding the library."
Zhuo Yaoluo was silent, still lying in Lu Jing's palm.
So Lu Jing did not hesitate anymore and carefully put Zhuo Yaoluo into his sleeve.
In Hanmo Academy.
Guan Changsheng and Jiang Hu were taking care of the flowers and plants in the courtyard.
Lu Jing stepped into it.
Guan Changsheng saw Lu Jing, looked him up and down, frowned and said, "Lu Jing, your demeanor has changed."
Lu Jing was a little surprised.
The round-faced student named Jiang Hu next to Guan Changsheng was also a little surprised.
He also looked at Lu Jing carefully, but he didn't know what the change in Lu Jing's demeanor was.
Jiang Hu turned his head and thought for a while. For some reason, when he saw Lu Jing, he actually remembered his elder brother in the village who used to divert water for everyone in the fields when he was a child and was convinced by everyone.
"Mr. Lu Jing is still so noble and scholarly, but when I look at him today, I feel that he is much more approachable."
Jiang Hu thought in his mind: "I have heard of Mr. Lu Jing's name before. I only knew that he was the young master of Xuandu Noble House. I didn't expect that he could make me, a commoner, feel approachable."
The two of them looked at the scene.
Immediately, Guan Changsheng asked Lu Jing again: "There was a lot of commotion in the library today. It is said that a mysterious stone giant took you out of the library?"
Jiang Hu's eyes were full of admiration: "Today, the news has spread in the library, and many old scholars who have stayed in the library for decades are also talking about it.
Mr. Jing, do you know the relationship between the three-eyed stone man and Mr. Four?"
There was some mystery in Jiang Hu's eyes, and he whispered: "It is said that Mr. Four will become an immortal after entering the Heavenly Pass, and his blood will have extremely mysterious power that can turn death into life.
This three-eyed stone man was brought back to life by pouring his blood."
Lu Jing smiled at them: "I'm here to see Mr. Jiu. I missed my class today because of some trivial matters."
"Mr. Nine is in the room."
Mr. Guan shook his head casually and said: "Actually, it doesn't matter. You have two classes tomorrow and just make up for it. Sometimes you have important things to do and you can't be completely trapped in the library."
Lu Jing smiled and nodded at them, then went to Mr. Jiu's room.
Mr. Jiu is copying a painting.
The scene in the painting is a green mountain.
The green mountains are green, the rain is hazy, the sun is hanging in the sky, the sunshine is shining on the pines, and the breeze is blowing slowly, because those green mountains are shaking their heads.
When Mr. Jiu saw Lu Jing coming, he subconsciously looked up.
At a glance, his expression suddenly became stiffer, and his eyes narrowed slightly at this moment, as if he was looking at Lu Jing carefully.
"good."
Mr. Jiu nodded and said: "It's gratifying to have improved again, but your soul is a bit strange..."
Lu Jing didn't answer. He sat opposite Mr. Jiu and mentioned today's homework.
Mr. Jiu continued to copy the picture of Qingshan with his head lowered, and said casually: "These are just minutiae, you can just make them up when you have free time one day.
There are rules in Hanmo Academy, but these rules are only for promoting Taoism, not for restricting the teachers and students in the academy."
Lu Jing thought for a moment and said: "After all, with the monthly salary from the library, you have to do something, otherwise it will become a reward for nothing."
Mr. Jiu recalled that piece of support and seemed to agree with Lu Jing's words, nodding lightly.
"It's a coincidence that you came here. I have something I just wanted to ask."
Mr. Jiu said: "There was a message in the palace today. There will be a poetry meeting in the palace in the next few days. Most of them will be princesses. The princes and concubines will write a line of poetry and compose a lyric. Originally, it has nothing to do with the library.
But there was another nobleman in the palace who wanted to meet you and asked you to come and read some poems and do some poetry reviews. I didn't agree directly. I thought I would meet you tomorrow and ask you before making a decision."
"The nobles in the palace want to see me?"
Lu Jing was a little surprised. Who among the princesses, princes and concubines could see him?
"I am still young, is it appropriate to go to such an occasion?"
"It would be inappropriate if you had any other identity, but you are a gentleman from the library. Mr. Guanqi has already recorded the two poems you found in a poetry book. You have also seen good poetry. Since it is a poetry banquet, you naturally need it.
Sir, how can you know the quality of poetry otherwise?
In fact, it is not just you, there are also two great scholars who are well-known in Xuandu outside the library. This is nothing."
Mr. Jiu replied like this.
"If someone in the palace wants me to participate, wouldn't it be bad if the library refuses?" Lu Jing was still hesitant.
Mr. Jiu smiled casually, paused for a moment while copying the famous paintings, and said: "Others can't refuse, but the library can."
"However, if I refuse, if the nobles in the palace insist on seeing you, they will send someone to invite you privately without passing through the library. Then it will be your own decision. After all, the library is a place for preaching and teaching, not a
Sects, teachers and students in the library are all free."
Lu Jing was even more confused: "I wonder which noble person it is?"
Mr. Jiu looked at Lu Jing and said, "She is the crown prince's concubine, your sister."
Lu Jing fell silent.
There was indeed a vague impression of his sister in the memory in his mind.
He ranks third in the Lu family. Lu Qiong is his second brother. The fourth brother is still young and is on his way back to Beijing with Lu Shenyuan.
And this crown prince's concubine is Lu Jing's eldest sister. She was not born to Mrs. Zhong. Before Mrs. Zhong, Lu Shenyuan was married to another wealthy manor in Xuandu.
But later, the wealthy family was massacred overnight. The mother of the crown prince and the princess escaped, but she also died in depression.
Later, Lu Shenyuan remarried and Mrs. Zhong became the head wife of the palace.
Since Lu Jing entered the Lu Mansion, he has never met his eldest sister. He only has a slight impression of her. It is said that she has become a noble person.
The ancient pine in the ancient pine courtyard was sent by the crown prince and his concubine, but she had never returned to the Lu Mansion to visit her relatives.
Many times, Lu Jing forgot that he had such a sister.
Now, the sudden summons was naturally not to get to know Lu Jing and reminisce about the past. The reason may also fall on the prince.
Lu Jing was thinking.
Another golden light emerged in his mind, and the ancient and mysterious destiny palace emerged. A warm feeling carrying a lot of information flowed into Lu Jing's mind.
[Ninth day of the ninth lunar month: When you meet your spouse, even if you have no fault for a few days, you will go well. 】
[When the prince and his wife meet, there will be no thunder but celebration.]
…
The destiny pattern of seeking good fortune and avoiding evil is triggered!
Two auspicious images flowed into Lu Jing's mind.
"When entering the palace, there are no ominous signs. If it goes, it will be auspicious. If it does not go, it will be auspicious. This is a bit surprising."
"With great auspicious signs, you can get unknown help, you may become famous, you can get one hundred destiny vitality, a yang orange destiny [as stable as a mountain], a rare thing."
"With auspicious signs, there will be no disasters, but you will lose many opportunities, but compared to the auspicious signs, you will gain fifty more points of vitality."
Lu Jing thought for a moment and then remembered the dispute between the seventh prince and the crown prince.
"Although there is a secret book, we are related by blood after all. The crown prince and his wife want to see me. If I am willing, it makes sense. I can take advantage of this opportunity to find out what the prince has to say."
Lu Jing thought about this and said to Mr. Jiu: "In that case, it would be good to go to the palace and see the world."
Mr. Jiu nodded and said: "If you agree now, you are going on behalf of the library. The library will naturally give you a gift when the time comes. When you enter the palace, you are also the gentleman of the library. Although your status is not noble, you are proud of it."
But you are respected by others, so you should go and visit Taixuan Palace."
The two chatted for a while.
The green mountain painting that Mr. Jiu traced was also completed.
He picked up the drawing paper, looked at it carefully, and compared it with the original painting. He said disappointedly: "At that time, I could just draw casually and get the charm of the green mountains. Now I concentrate on copying, but the charm cannot be preserved."
one."
As Mr. Jiu said this, he put down the drawing paper again, with a little more disappointment in his eyes.
Lu Jing looked around and saw that every time Mr. Jiu copied, he was copying Qingshan painting.
Many green mountain paintings are also hung in Mr. Jiu's room, each is different and has its own merits.
"It's always harder to write with the left hand."
Lu Jing advised: "Perhaps Mr. Jiu can try to copy some simpler paintings first. These green mountain paintings have intricate brushwork and ink, and there are probably hundreds of layers of brushwork and ink. It is naturally more difficult to copy."
Mr. Jiu seemed to have a special liking for these green mountains. He just shook his head and said: "I first started to learn painting by painting green mountains. I was still a teenager at that time. I thought painting was the simplest thing. I just need to bring some sincerity and do less.
Just whitewash it, but don't exaggerate or show off.
Now I am starting from scratch, but I find that these green mountains are too difficult to draw. Every time I write, I feel extremely annoyed, and I even feel a little disgusted with the green mountains."
"But the more this happens, the more I want to subdue the mental ape, control the mental horse, and the more I want to paint green mountains."
Mr. Nine sighed.
Lu Jing looked down at the green hills, feeling that these green hills seemed to have great significance to Mr. Jiu.
So Lu Jing thought for a moment and then comforted Mr. Jiu and said, "Mr. Jiu has painted so many green mountains. I think the green mountains in Mr. Jiu's heart will not let you down. In this case, Lu Jing will not say more. He only hopes that Mr. Jiu will not let you down."
Surrender your own thoughts and desires, and you will be able to create a painting with your left hand as soon as possible."
Mr. Jiu smiled softly, but for some reason, there was a hint of guilt in his smile.
"The green mountains will not let me down, and the green mountains will not let me down, but if I am..."
Lu Jing didn't know what Mr. Jiu was thinking, so he stopped disturbing Mr. Jiu.
He left Mr. Jiu's room, and together with Guan Changsheng and Jiang Hu, he carefully took care of the flowers and plants in Hanmo Academy for a long time.
There are many benefits to a library.
For example, it is winter outside the library, but the scenery inside the library is pleasant, like warm spring.
The flowers in the courtyard are always in full bloom and will not fade.
It is said that this strange scene is also due to the four words "The four seasons are like spring" mentioned by the Master in the library.
It is a taboo for Yuanshen monks to harm the heavens, as it can easily lead to disaster.
Even if your cultivation level is far inferior to that of Chunyang and you don't need to survive thunder tribulations, if you use your magical power on a daily basis and go against the nature of heaven and earth, disasters will naturally come.
Every spring, when the spring thunder suddenly rings, it often takes the lives of many Yuan Shen monks who are struck by disaster.
Because of this, Spring Thunder is also a great disaster for those Yuanshen monks who go against nature.
But... the Master wrote the four words "The four seasons are like spring" in the library, and the atmosphere in the huge library changed accordingly, which lasted for many years.
Spring thunder occurs every year, and until the Master climbed to the gate of heaven more than forty years ago, no disasters came. This shows that the Master is extraordinary.
It wasn't until the end of Youshi that Lu Jing left the library.
But for some reason today, there were very few carriages in front of the library. After walking for a while, I finally saw a carriage, but I was overtaken by a scholar not far away, got on the carriage and left.
So Lu Jing could only walk for a while.
In Lu Jing's mind, a bright yellow light dissipated.
Lu Jing hadn't noticed it yet, but he saw a strong young man in front of a noble mansion not far away, being escorted by several guards with strong bodies and surging energy.
Faintly, there was still a voice coming.
"The horse is dead! How can you live?"
"Even if I sell ten of you such precious giant horses, you won't be able to afford the compensation."
"Read all day! Read! Don't forget that you are just a horseman. No matter how many books you read, you are not a good person as the household registration secretary. Now because of your negligence in studying, you have harmed the young lady and the young master's horse. Even if you are a noble person in the house,
If I can tolerate you, I will never allow you to be so presumptuous."
"Let's go! What if I kill the disobedient slave?"
…
Lu Jing frowned in the distance. In a flash of thought, he discovered that the bright opportunity he had just gotten when talking to Li Yushi today had disappeared.
"There happened to be no carriage on the road today, and when I walked to this mansion, I happened to see this young man in trouble... such a coincidence... meeting this young man, it turned out to be a bad opportunity?"
Lu Jing thought in his mind.
And the guards had already come over pressing the young man.
The leader was a middle-aged man wearing steward's clothes, with a fair face and a bit of coldness in his eyes.
This middle-aged man is probably the steward of your mansion as mentioned by the guard.
Lu Jing looked at the young man.
But they saw that the young man was covered in bruises, and the scars on his body had torn his clothes.
Blood oozed from the whip marks, his face was bruised and swollen, and there was blood gushing out of his mouth and nose.
But at this time, the young man's eyes were very determined. Although there was some fear in his eyes for the future, he did not give in.
He was weak and whispered: "Those two horses... are not my fault. Before I went to school... I clearly tied the horses' reins..."
"Shut up."
The steward turned his head and shouted angrily, but didn't say much.
Because they had already arrived at Lu Jing's side.
Seeing Lu Jing's extraordinary demeanor, the steward felt that the young man in front of him must also be a young man, so he subconsciously put a smile on his face and saluted Lu Jing.
He didn't say much. After saluting, he continued to walk forward.
The young man drooped his head and seemed to have given up struggling, but he still whispered: "If it's not me, it's not me. You can kill me today, but you can't say that I let go of the horse's rein!"
Lu Jing's heart moved. This young man...not to mention the chance thing, just his love of reading and his strong character made him admire him more.
But the steward was even more angry. He took the whip from one of the guards and was about to whip it hard.
At this moment, a calm voice suddenly came and fell into the ears of him and the guard.
"What did this young man do?"
The steward paused, and several guards also turned their heads.
But he saw the young scholar with a black sword looking down at the young man with some inquiry in his eyes.
The young man has a calm face and calm tone, but he has a lot of magnanimity.
If others asked like this, the manager would probably scold him a few times and tell him not to meddle in other people's business.
But when Lu Jing looked at him, the middle-aged steward couldn't help but replied: "This young master, this person is my Zhao family's horseman, but he failed in his duty and caused the two horses to fight and die!"
Those two horses are the beloved horses of my young lady and my young master, and they are extremely valuable. Even if I sell this slave, I won’t be able to get half of the horses back."
The steward said this and said nothing more.
But the meaning behind these words is already clear.
This young man was beaten like this and had to be dragged out of the house. It was more dangerous than good, and the word "death" was inevitable.
Lu Jing didn't say much. He turned to look at the Zhao Mansion and asked, "Is this the residence of General Xuanwei of the dynasty?"
When the steward heard Lu Jing's question, he immediately straightened up a lot and showed pride on his face. He nodded and said, "Young master is exactly what you said. My master is the current General Xuanwei!"
Lu Jing nodded, glanced at the young man, and said softly: "This young man is good at reading, which makes me admire him a little. How about I beg for mercy for this young man?"
The middle-aged steward's expression changed a bit and asked: "I wonder which mansion the young master comes from?"
Lu Jing shook his head and said, "I come from an ordinary background."
The middle-aged manager was even more confused.
He has been in the mansion for a long time, so he naturally knows that someone knows that he is the steward of General Xuanwei's mansion, but still dares to plead for mercy. He must have something to rely on. Otherwise, how can a young man from an ordinary background dare to plead for mercy?
So, the middle-aged steward asked again: "Young Master just asked about my general, but do you know my general?"
Hearing Lu Jing plead for him, the already very weak young man raised his head with difficulty and looked at Lu Jing, with gratitude and hope in his eyes.
At this moment, Lu Jing did not want to talk to the steward anymore. He asked, "Is General Xuanwei in the mansion now?"
The middle-aged steward hurriedly said: "If I go back to the young master, the general is practicing martial arts in the mansion."
Lu Jing glanced at this young man who already had a bright chance just from meeting him.
He also felt that as a domestic slave, this young man also had to study, and he was somewhat similar to his former self.
So he said softly to the steward: "I have received an invitation from General Xuanwei, so I would like to inform you... Lu Jing of the library wants to pay a visit to General Xuanwei."
Double monthly votes, don’t waste it. If you don’t vote for me, you can vote for others. I’ll just remind you.
