But he said that the King of Lu met Jia Huan and talked about everything in the house in detail. Jia Huan deeply felt that it was not a problem for the Zeng family to be the only one. Luzhou could not do anything without relying on the Zeng family at the moment, unless he had a military general.
Balance and restraint. Then he said to the king of Lu sternly: "To ensure the peace of one side, both civil and military skills are indispensable. Drinking, sex, wealth, and lack of people's hearts. If you don't have a reliable military commander, it will be difficult for you to cure Luzhou."
The king of Lu hurriedly said: "That Luzhou pacifier Du Dequ is not a good person."
Jia Huan smiled and said: "There are not many good people in this world. Since he has money, he will be more beneficial to you than power."
King Lu frowned: "He's quite ugly."
Jia Huan knocked on his forehead: "How many good-looking generals are there?"
King Lu pouted and said, "I don't like him."
Jia Huan glanced at him: "That's all, I didn't say I had to conquer him. How much do you know about the generals in Luzhou?"
The king of Lu turned over and got off the kang: "I have only seen a few, but not many. The one the government invited to teach me martial arts was Du Dequ's son, and I don't like him either."
Jia Huan looked at him and said, "So you have no time to learn martial arts?"
"hey-hey……"
Jia Huan couldn't help but have a headache: "It's not enough to delay it like this. You have to find another martial arts master you like."
King Lu muttered: "Isn't there anything good-looking? Even if it doesn't look good, don't look ugly."
Jia Huan couldn't laugh or cry. Isn't this the face control that Cong'er often talks about? Then he thought for a while: "Although I know some good-looking and talented people, they are just very busy..." Suddenly he thought of a person.
King Lu saw him frowning at first, but suddenly his eyes lit up and he opened his eyes wide: "Are you free?"
"It's not idle..." It's just that for many years, we brothers have been trying to pry him over in an honest and honorable way. Teaching the King of Lu to practice martial arts is an opportunity. He looked at the King of Lu and said, "I may not be able to get this person."
King Lu blinked: "Isn't it ugly?"
Jia Huan smiled and said: "If he is ugly, I'm afraid not many men will be good-looking."
King Lu hurriedly tugged on his lapel: "Mr. Huan! Please come, come! That Du looks like the evil ghost next to King Kong in the temple."
Jia Huan said: "You may not be invited."
King Lu looked at him longingly for a while, then sweetly shouted: "Brother-in-law~~"
Jia Huan was elated: "What a good little thing! Okay, if you say brother-in-law, I will definitely invite you!" He then calculated the distance and said, "In that case, I will go look for him, but I don't have enough time.
Easy to talk about."
King Lu nodded vigorously: "Hurry up, hurry up!"
Jia Huan then took out a purse from his arms and took out a mutton-fat white jade ring the size of a copper coin and held it in his hand: "Although this object is small, I always carry it with me."
King Lu glanced at him: "No! Even Mr. Huan has to be a serious matchmaker."
"Nonsense!" Jia Huan glanced at him, "When you get married, you naturally have to be a serious matchmaker. How old are you? I want to marry you right now, does your sister dare to marry you? This is just an attitude, to express your thoughts, so as not to
Your sister thought I was in love with those boxes of snacks." Then she stuffed the jade ring back into her purse and sighed: "It's obviously a consensual marriage between you and me, but it's so sneaky that it's like an affair. Tomorrow it will be earth-shattering to make up for it.
!”
King Lu hesitated for a long time, then muttered unwillingly: "Okay..." and carefully put away his purse.
Jia Huan said: "When you go back, quietly tell your grandfather and uncle Zhao San's identity, and ask them to keep quiet until the general is invited. Don't disturb Du Dequ." King Lu nodded. Jia Huan told him a few more times.
Sentence, send him out.
Seeing the smile on his lips, Fan Cheng rushed to greet him: "Your Majesty? How about it?"
King Lu puffed up his chest and said, "Let's go! Go back to the house immediately, I have important matters!"
Fan Cheng asked: "What's the matter?"
"Don't ask, we'll talk about it when we get back."
Fan Cheng didn't dare to ask, so he carefully escorted him back to his residence. When he arrived near Prince Lu's Mansion, Prince Lu was more cautious and took a detour to enter through the west corner gate. Although Fan Cheng didn't know why, he followed his words. When he arrived at the west corner gate,
The King of Lu ordered Fan Cheng to wait here, and he quickly rushed to Princess Jian'an's Courtyard.
When Princess Jian'an saw him coming, she asked with a smile: "Why are you here again? Is everything okay outside today?"
The King of Lu hugged her arm and complained in a low voice: "Sister! You already knew this! You are only coaxing me!"
Princess Jian'an raised her eyebrows and said, "What do I know?"
The King of Lu snorted and just looked at her without saying a word; Princess Jian'an hurriedly sent everyone out. The King of Lu took out his purse from his arms and shook it triumphantly. Princess Jian'an guessed it immediately and was so ashamed.
His face was red. King Lu also smiled and gave her his purse, whispered what happened, and looked at his sister sadly: "You should have known."
"It's not hard to guess."
King Lu asked: "How did my sister guess it?"
Princess Jian'an didn't answer. She got up and came to the case. She calmed down, gritted her teeth, opened the dowry box, took out the ebony comb she usually used, and held it in her hand. After hesitating for a long time, she finally put it down, turned to Prince Lu and said, "Go and tell Zhao
Third, Du Dequ has great military morale, even if the general he hired is good at martial arts, it is not easy to control the troops." King Lu nodded. Princess Jian'an also sighed, "It really looks like an affair."
Prince Lu said: "Mr. Huan said that he will make up for it when he invites the general to make a shocking move."
Princess Jian'an smiled slightly: "Let's see how shocking he is."
Unexpectedly, as soon as King Lu came out of the hospital, two people were already waiting at the door. They were sent by Zeng Chu. One of them laughed and said: "Your Majesty has become more naughty and sneaked in through the west corner door, making it difficult for us to find him."
"
It turned out that Zeng Cheng had been discussing with his father for a long time and could not find the King of Lu when he returned. After asking, he found out that Fan Cheng had taken him away. Needless to say, he could not wait until tomorrow and immediately went to see Zhao San. He couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
I'm afraid that King Lu let that boy coax him away, so he sent people to guard the door of the mansion. Just then he got the message, and Master Fan was waiting at the west corner gate not knowing what he was doing, so he went over to ask in person.
Although Fan Cheng complained that he wanted to take Zhao San and the princess to his home, he had no intention of tricking him. He told him everything. Zeng Chu felt that something was wrong and ordered people to look for him inside and outside.
King Lu. Not long after, someone reported that King Lu had gone to Princess Jian'an's courtyard. He was getting more and more headache. So he sent someone to wait here, and ordered him to be taken to the front when King Lu came out.
King Lu was young and had not experienced much. When he saw these two people, he suddenly felt that his uncle had sent him to arrest him to prevent them from succeeding. His heart beat faster. He only said: "Wait a minute, I will
I have something important to tell Fan Cheng."
The two men said, "Your Majesty, go ahead and meet us adults first." They surrounded him on both sides.
King Lu frowned and said, "Fan Cheng is still waiting. I want to see him first."
One said: "How about I send a message for him to come in and see the prince?"
"No." Prince Lu said, "I was just about to send him out to do some work." He rolled up his sleeves and said, "It only takes a few words. It's okay to let uncle wait a little longer." He picked up his feet and started walking.
The two men looked at each other for a few times, how could they dare to threaten him seriously? They had no choice but to follow behind. King Lu trotted all the way to the west corner gate. As expected, Fan Cheng, the idiot, was still waiting. King Lu stepped forward and grabbed him, then turned around and blasted Zeng Chun.
The two men stayed away, pulled Fan Cheng a few steps closer, hid under the wall, and said, "Go and tell Mr. Zhao San immediately: Du Dequ has great military morale, and it's difficult for others to control the army. It's important!"
Seeing the stern expression on his face, Fan Cheng was startled. He said "yes" repeatedly, turned around and pulled his horse away. The King of Lu withdrew back to his house after seeing him go around the path in front of him.
As soon as Fan Cheng left, Jia Huan ordered someone to fetch the pigeon cage, wrote an urgent letter and stuffed it into the mailbox, then let the pigeon go. After waiting for another half day, Fan Cheng came over and said "Lu", panting and frightened.
After hearing the king's words, Jia Huan frowned and said, "How powerful is Du Dequ?" He bowed to Fan Cheng and said, "Thank you, sir."
Fan Cheng returned the courtesy and couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Zhao, what's going on? How can the prince hide his head and show his tail?"
Jia Huan chuckled and said, "It's a good idea to open the plank road, but I suddenly sang it as a secret crossing to Chencang." Then he stood up and told the boys, "Now that your things are packed, go check out first."
Fan Cheng was startled: "Mr. Zhao is leaving?"
"Well, go and invite someone, sooner rather than later." Jia Huan bowed deeply to Fan Cheng again, "The King of Lu asked Mr. Fan to take care of him."
Fan Cheng thought he had voted for the King of Lu. He was overjoyed and hurriedly returned the favor: "Thank you, Mr. Zhao!"
Fan Cheng then escorted him all the way out of the west gate. Jia Huan thought for a moment and left two bodyguards behind, telling them to follow Fan Cheng for the time being in case of emergency. The sun was setting at this time, so Fan Cheng stood at the gate of the city.
, watching Jia Huan's body covered with Xiaguang leave, tears fell quietly from the corners of her eyes.
The pigeons flew very fast, and within a few days Zhou Camellia climbed up to the pigeon cot, got the letter, and handed it to Jia Cong.
Jia Cong was sitting idle with a few people, chewing his teeth, taking it apart and looking at it for a long time, and said to himself: "I always feel that Brother Huan did this strangely."
Chen Ruijin happened to be nearby and asked, "How is Third Master Huan's marriage going?"
Jia Congnai handed the letter to her: "Here, let me help him find a martial arts practitioner for his brother-in-law."
Chen Ruijin took it and looked at it and asked, "Why do I need your help?"
"It's not a invitation, it's a pawn." Jia Cong said, "Yu Langjun Zhong Heng. I have been thinking about this brother for a long time, and it is very appropriate for him to go to Luzhou to lead the army. But... Brother Huan, how does this look like he is going to pick up girls?
If someone were to steal his wife, he would sting him. If it were the other person, I would definitely kick down the door of his Zeng family!"
After reading the letter, Chen Ruijin said: "I think this matter was handled well. Mr. Zeng is the grandfather of Princess Jian'an. After all, he is related by blood. It is inconvenient to shame the elders openly, so it is better to let him know secretly."
Jia Cong curled his lips and said: "What shame is there! The two families are fighting for a girl. They are in sharp conflict and there is no room for negotiation. If he doesn't make concessions, they still think they can negotiate if they can't protect everything. Look ahead and look behind."
Xichun was engrossed in looking at the fortification plans when he heard the words and said, "Bring it to me for a look." Chen Ruijin handed it to her. After she finished looking at it, she blurted out, "Did Huan'er fall in love with King Lu or Princess Jian'an?"
"ha?"
Xichun said: "Everything is for the good of King Lu. If he falls in love with Princess Jian'an, he should put the princess first."
"That's right!" Jia Cong high-fived, "There's something wrong here. Does he want to marry Princess Jian'an? Forget it! Love at first sight is not reliable."
Chen Ruijin took the letter and read it again: "I really don't think there is anything wrong with Mr. Huan. The situation in Luzhou is like that, what else can we do?"
Xichun said: "If he just wants to marry a good girl as his wife, there is nothing wrong with it; if he wants others to be really good to him, then there is something wrong. You only need to think about how Uncle Wu treats Aunt Wu, and you will understand
.”
Jia Cong said lazily: "The fifth uncle is the talented one! The script clearly shows that they are fighting each other, but they forced him to act like a fool. It can be seen that the script can be changed." He stretched his waist and said,
"Let's go! We're leaving tomorrow to pry Zhong Heng away." He turned to look at Chen Ruijin, "Are you going?"
Chen Ruijin sighed: "Third Master is so reckless, how dare my subordinates not follow him?"
Jia Cong laughed a few times and ran out to find Gong Kun to hand over official duties. He didn't have much practical work at hand.
On this day, Jia Cong and Chen Ruijin quickly entered Ezhou and found a Yuezhi Teahouse not far from the Prince of E's Mansion. When they walked in, they saw Jia Huan wearing the clothes of a tea boy serving tea to the guests. He burst into laughter.
Jia Huan also looked at them, walked over seriously and bowed, "You two guests, please come in."
Jia Cong said with a bulging belly: "Let me find a private room with you and serve you the best tea. I want to use the snow water harvested from the plum blossoms ten years ago."
Jia Huan still had a fake smile on his face and led them upstairs to a room to sit down. He glanced at him and said, "You're not afraid of diarrhea either."
Jia Cong quickly asked: "How many of them are there?"
"Everything is fine." Jia Huan also sat down and said, "General Zhong has become the tea boss wholeheartedly; Master Miaoyu does not show up and only cooks tea; Zhong Heng is still robbing for Shuirong and often sneaks out to see his uncle. It's just that the E Palace is on guard.
Sen Yan, they tried several times but failed. Now that Fourth Sister Chen is here, I will be busy with half the work." Chen Ruijin nodded. Jia Huan told the story about Luzhou again, and said with a wry smile, "The Zeng family has some small ideas.
, the generals have their own sect. I am afraid that I cannot convince Zhong Heng, so I called you here. You should be more sharp-tongued."
Jia Cong said: "Throw your sleeves away and leave. King Lu's son and your wife are still in the hands of the Zeng family."
Jia Huan said: "Mr. Zeng is always scheming, especially unwilling to harm himself. Since King Lu told the truth when he went back, he didn't dare to do anything wrong."
Jia Cong said: "Although he doesn't dare to act recklessly, what about his grandchildren? Then why did Miss Zeng Ji think that your wife had robbed her of her marriage, so she secretly plotted something against her."
Jia Huan was so frightened that she stood up: "She dares!"
"You should have walked over to their house proudly and showed off your authority. You are not in a hurry. You are early and you are not here to be a tea boy." Jia Cong curled his lips and said, "What are you afraid of?
Luzhou appeasement envoy! He has money, why not throw a few boxes of silver at him? Even if he has evil intentions, it will take several days to conquer such a big idea."
"Ouch!" Jia Huan regretted, "Why didn't I think of throwing away the money?"
Chen Ruijin added: "Master Huan sent a token to Princess Jian'an, but she didn't give you a reply?"
Jia Huan said: "Girls are thin-skinned."
Chen Ruijin shook his head. Jia Cong said: "This time I understand. What the second sister said is that no one else can help with this kind of thing. If you are interested, others will naturally know. She accepted the token because she thinks highly of you.
It's not bad to marry you; there is no reply because you haven't done enough and others haven't noticed that you are really interested in her, so they don't really want to marry you."
Jia Huan was startled and argued: "I only thought about the Zeng family and that Du, and forgot about other things."
Chen Ruijin said: "The king of Luzhou has nothing to do with Mr. Huan. Aren't you thinking about them for the sake of Princess Jian'an? If you don't smoothen her life and just go to pry some general, isn't it unreasonable to seize the throne? In that mansion, Mr. Zeng,
Mr. Zeng, the girl from the Zeng family, the fourth master of the Zeng family, and Concubine Ning are all in chaos, why are you leaving like this?"
Jia Huan was startled again and said, "Oh, Fourth Sister Chen! Why didn't I invite you to go with me that time? It's really not thoughtful."
Jia Cong glanced at him: "Do you need to be reminded of this? If a man is not considerate to a woman, it means he doesn't like her that much. Look at the fifth uncle, Princess Yan bullied the fifth aunt, and he killed one of his sons.
You also instigated the other one not to get close to her. Brother Huan, do you really want to marry that girl?"
"Think about it!"
"It's really not like what you did." Jia Cong rubbed his neck, "It's like completing a mission. You got Princess Jian'an as your wife at the lowest cost, and you can get engaged. Uncle Wu spent all his energy.
Try your best to make the third aunt happy. It doesn’t matter to anyone else. The two of you picking up girls are completely different things, okay? Think about it carefully. If you don’t really want to marry someone, it’s still too late to think of other ways. I
I'm afraid that if you really fall in love with another girl someday, it will be difficult to handle." Jia Huan opened his mouth and was about to speak, but he slapped the table first and shouted loudly, "Where is your boss? He hasn't seen you even after sitting here for a long time.
The tea boy is so unprofessional when serving tea. I want to complain! Call your boss!"
I heard someone outside say: "I am the boss, is this guest okay?" The door opened with a swipe, and Zhong Wei stood at the door wearing a brocade suit and smiling.
Jia Cong glanced at him sideways and sighed: "Can't you calm down that aura? You are clearly still a military commander, not a businessman." Zhong Wei laughed. (..)
