"Everyone, my master has also not eaten a grain of rice since he received the guests in the morning. If you don't understand yourself, you must understand him." Lu Ren said angrily.
His master's life was not that easy either.
Some old friends wanted to see him by name, so he had no choice but to go and meet him. In the end, he was so busy that he hadn't even had a warm meal since the morning.
Lu Ren treated everyone equally, and regardless of who was in the main hall, he said calmly: "Now my master is tired and needs to rest, so please come back."
For these people who have no right to choose, he speaks plainly.
After hearing Lu Ren's words, many people felt better and thought: "It turns out that Mr. Lu didn't eat either. This is really hard for him."
For people who are several decades old, their bodies may not be able to hold on.
Thinking of this, some people raised their hands and said, "Steward Lu, since Mr. Lu is tired today, let's take our leave."
As he spoke, he cupped his hands slightly and was about to leave.
The remaining people were all stubborn and thought it would be okay to wait until Mr. Lu finished his meal to meet him.
However, Lu Ren had no intention of giving them a chance and said bluntly: "Everyone, it's getting late now. You should all go back first. My master will come back to see you all early tomorrow morning."
He also made an apologetic gesture.
Many people had no choice but to smile helplessly and then leave.
Of course, there are some who have not left. For example, Meng Tian is one of them. He said calmly: "Steward Lu, please inform Mr. Lu that Meng Tian from Xianyang is visiting."
As the steward of the Lu Mansion, Lu Ren naturally knew Meng Tian's identity, and also knew that Meng Tian had submitted a greeting invitation before, but Mr. Lu was really not available.
So much so that he was left in a side hall for a long time.
But Meng Tian didn't care about this and said to Lu Ren calmly: "Steward Lu, just go and report it. Whether you see him or not is another matter."
From the moment he came to Peixian County, the place seemed to have changed.
Originally no one knew about the immortal figures, but now it seems that only the common people at the lowest level don't know about them, and most of the upper-class people still know about them.
After all, their information is relatively well-informed.
At this time, Lu Ren frowned and said: "General Mengtian, I know what you mean, but my master is really too tired for you to disturb me like this."
Hearing this, Meng Tian was startled and said quickly: "I was reckless. I hope Butler Lu won't blame me. If that's the case, please give me a message, saying that I want to visit that immortal master tomorrow."
"ah?"
Lu Ren was stunned for a moment, and suddenly he couldn't laugh or cry and said: "General Meng, I can't make the decision on this matter, and I'm afraid even my father can't make the decision."
Meng Tian raised his eyebrows, but said dissatisfiedly: "Butler Lu, do you have any way to let me meet that Master Jiang?"
To understand the situation, he must know what kind of person Jiang Chi is.
Or to see if he is still human.
"There is no way." Lu Ren shook his head and explained: "General people are not allowed to enter Mr. Jiang's courtyard at will. Besides, if he doesn't want to see you, there is nothing anyone can do."
Meng Tian nodded and said: "I know, that's why I asked you to help me find a way. I won't let you suffer too much."
As he spoke, he waved his hand and asked his guards to deliver a box of gold.
Lu Ren's face changed several times, and after a while he accepted the box and said in a deep voice: "I can only help deliver your request, but whether Mr. Jiang will receive you is another matter."
"Okay." Meng Tian nodded, this was the result he wanted.
The second day.
The threshold of Lu Mansion, which was also filled with people like a city, was almost broken, and people coming and going were like a crowd.
Peng Tian naturally received the news early, but he had been watching the show.
Today, Mr. Lu was still exhausted when meeting his old friends. He felt a little dumbfounded and said to himself: "I never imagined that my Lu family would still be so prestigious."
It's a pity that it came too late.
Although it was popular because of Jiang Qian, he enjoyed it very much.
But now he feels very irritable, mainly because there are too many people visiting, and most of them are asking about Immortal Master Jiang Que.
"Lu Ren, do you have anything important to report?" Lu Gong asked calmly.
Lu Ren immediately knelt down and said, "To tell you what I'm saying, yesterday evening, Meng Tian from the Meng family asked me to report to Young Master Jiang. He wants to see him."
After hearing this, Mr. Lu nodded, "You are quite honest. Let's drop this matter. As for Mr. Jiang, I'll go ask what's going on."
"Then Master, are there still guests to attend today?" Lu Ren frowned again and said, "Don't you care about those people?"
There was a long queue early this morning. Wouldn't it mean that the queue was in vain?
Thinking of this, Mr. Lu also had a headache. He said casually: "Bring me a pen, ink, paper and inkstone. I should be able to write a few words."
Lu Ren naturally ordered his servants to make preparations. He was also curious about what kind of method Lu Gong would use. Could it be that he would just go away with a little calligraphy?
Even he didn't think of it, maybe the master had thought of it.
After a while, pens, inks, paper and inkstones were placed one by one, and Lu Gong wrote three words: "I am very busy!"
Then he put his own seal on it and said to Lu Ren and others: "Go and put this inscription on the door of the mansion. No one is allowed to open it. There will be no visitors today."
"ah?"
Lu Ren was stunned and said: "Master, are you sure you want to do this?"
Isn't that a bit too willful?
If this calligraphy is posted, I am afraid that there will be an uproar in the entire Peixian County. The once popular Lu Gonglu family actually said that he was very busy.
Lu Ren stood there not knowing what to say.
After a while, Lu Gong saw that there was no movement, so he said: "What are you doing here? Hurry up and post it."
"Sir, your reputation will be ruined if you do this."
Lu Ren became worried. Once those people were shut out, Lu Gong's notoriety would spread throughout Pei County within three days.
By then the Lu family will be finished.
"It doesn't matter, it's just a little reputation, but how much is reputation worth?" Lu Gong waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Now I'm going to see Mr. Jiang and tell him about Meng Tian."
He was not stupid, and naturally knew clearly that Meng Tian came on behalf of His Majesty the First Emperor Ying Zheng, otherwise he would not have sent Meng Tian out.
"Yes." Since Lu Gong said so, what else could he say.
I just hope that this copybook won't be scolded after it is hung up. He is just a little housekeeper and can't speak.
"By the way, sir, should we invite General Meng Tian in?" Lu Ren suddenly said: "He came early in the morning to wait. He probably also wants to ask about Mr. Jiang."
Lu Gong was hesitant and deep in thought.
Telling or not actually depends on his thoughts, but the effect is completely different.
Finally he gritted his teeth and said: "Forget it, it wouldn't be a bad thing if he is really valued by your majesty. He can learn literature and martial arts and sell them to the emperor's family. This has been the case since ancient times."
If Jiang Qian has something that Yingzheng needs, he will naturally be interested in it, and the meaning of sending Meng Tian will be different.
Meng Tian is his confidant to Ying Zheng. In a sense, Meng Tian represents Ying Zheng.
"That's fine." Mr. Lu nodded and said, "Invite him in and let the servants take care of him. Don't do it like yesterday."
