The other examiners also frowned, obviously not understanding Lu Yu's current performance.
Everyone who entered Huangliang's dream began to make plans after adapting to their identities.
After all, no one who can enter the palace examination is stupid. Everyone knows that there are many examiners outside watching, and they all want to do their best to show their talents.
But only Lu Yu behaved so strangely!
"Look at his performance. I think the evil cultivator is just an excuse for him to withdraw his military power. I don't know what he is going to do now that he has the power to command his troops."
"Yes, after all, this person is at the top of the civil and military rankings. There should be something extraordinary about him."
Several examiners communicated with each other, but except for some grumpy censors, everyone else chose to watch silently.
After all, Huangliang Dreamland only lasts for a year, and it is only the beginning, and the outcome has not yet been decided.
…
noon.
Lingzhou, Xiangshui Tower.
Lu Yu left the government office and came to this restaurant in casual clothes.
The chief clerk has already made arrangements, the entire Xiangshui Building has been booked, and the chief clerk has been waiting outside the door.
"Sir, Sword Master Qingmu and Taoist Tongtian are already here, but the big boss of Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce said that he is sick and bedridden, so he really can't come to the banquet." The chief clerk said with a helpless expression.
Lu Yu frowned, but still remained calm and said calmly: "Okay, I understand."
On the top floor of Xiangshui Tower, in a luxuriously decorated box, the masters of the two sects have been waiting here for a long time.
"I've met Mr. Zhou Mu!"
Seeing Lu Yu come in, the two sect leaders bowed their hands and smiled at the same time.
One of the old men has a gray beard and a thin body, but his eyes contain a bright sword intent that makes people dare not look directly at him. The other man is a middle-aged man, wearing a Taoist robe, with a smile on his face.
An unfathomable look.
These two people are the heads of the two major sects in Lingzhou City!
Not all sects will choose to build their mountain gates in places with high mountains and rivers. Some sects focus on inheritance, and sitting in the city can better recruit disciples and strengthen their own strength.
"Today happens to be New Year's Eve, so I feel quite sorry for calling you here." Lu Yu said with a faint smile.
After some pleasantries, Sword Master Qingmu still expressed his confusion: "Lord Zhou Mu, what do you mean by calling us all over?"
Not only him, but Taoist Tongtian next to him also had a wary look in his eyes, wondering what kind of medicine Lu Yu was selling in the gourd.
"Oh, this is it."
A kind smile appeared on Lu Yu's face: "You two should understand that I have been in the position of state pastor for too long. I don't know how difficult it will be to climb up."
With that said, Lu Yu personally poured wine for the two sect masters.
"In a few days, the people from the Civil Service Examination Department will be patrolling around. At this time, I would like to ask you two to restrain the disciples in the sect and prevent too much conflict from breaking out. I would like to thank you both."
As soon as these words were spoken, the originally austere atmosphere immediately dissipated, and a look of relief flashed in the eyes of both Sword Master Qingmu and Taoist Tongtian.
"I see. Sir, you take good care of us all the time. Of course I want to help you."
"That's right, don't worry, I will naturally restrain the disciples in the sect. During this period, they will all be in seclusion for me to practice, and no one is allowed to run out!"
The two of them clapped their chests loudly and assured Lu Yu.
