And just when Luo Guan was drunk and asleep, there was a sudden knock on the door in the backyard of the Sihai Escort Bureau in the Imperial Capital.
Sun Lingyun, who had just turned the concubine in the twelfth room into a little white sheep, shivered with fright and suddenly became furious, "Are you looking for death? Get out of here and tell me tomorrow if you have anything to do!"
"Dad, it's an emergency of 100,000 yuan, I really can't wait!"
It's the eldest son.
His father's good deeds were disturbed by his own son. With a dark face, Sun Lingyun put on his clothes and opened the door, "...Say from the study!"
After lighting the candle and having a cup of herbal tea, Sun Lingyun's expression returned to calm, "What on earth is going on?"
Sun Daer hurriedly stepped forward and placed a crumpled letter that had obviously suffered a lot of damage during the transportation process on the table. "Dad, this letter is from our escort team. It was just delivered to the imperial capital today. It's divided." When I was picking it up for delivery, I was spotted by an attentive steward and hurriedly delivered it."
Sun Lingyun picked it up, looked at the address first, and said with a solemn expression, "No. 11 Gonghou Avenue..." No ordinary person can live there.
But after thinking for a while, he couldn't remember which nobleman lived in House No. 11.
Sun Daer smiled bitterly and said, "Dad, the house at No. 11 on Gonghou Avenue is a first-class government residence. His Majesty recently issued a decree to give it to Emperor Wuluo Shaoyuan."
"Moreover, I have verified that this letter was mailed from Jiangning City.
"Ah..." Sun Lingyun's hand shook and he almost dropped the letter. He caught it hurriedly, held it in front of his eyes and read it carefully.
call--
He took a deep breath and raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. Fortunately, although the envelope had many wrinkles, it was not damaged. Lao Sun witnessed the destruction of the Tianlong Escort that day with his own eyes, and his fear of Master Shao Yuan had long been engraved in his bones.
Sun Lingyun jumped up with a "chun" sound, "Why are you still standing there? Since it's a letter from Master Shaoyuan, why don't you send it over quickly!"
"Dad! Dad! It's already midnight. Even if we deliver the letter, we have to wait until tomorrow." Sun Daer hurriedly stopped him.
"Yes, yes, Master Shaoyuan may have already fallen asleep!" Sun Lingyun paced back and forth, "In three hours, it will be almost dawn. Let's go over now and wait outside the palace."
Soon, Sun's father and son, together with a group of escorts, hurried out as if escorting a valuable treasure. Time moved forward for a while, and on the fourth day after that night when the stars and the moon condensed beams of light, and the sound of swords resounded through the sky, a dirty Taoist came outside Jiangning City. His beard and hair were all white, and he looked up at the city gate with eyes that showed deep weariness. meaning.
"This place is really remote, and there is nothing unusual about it. How can you stand out from the crowd like that?" Taoist Zang shook his head, expressing his confusion.
He entered the city gate and found the Luo family mansion after a short inquiry. He saw that it was decorated with lanterns and red lanterns hanging high today, and it was full of joy.
The Taoist listened to a few words and found out that this was the birthday banquet of the third master of Luofu. All the prominent figures in the city gathered together. I heard that the county guard ordered people to send congratulatory gifts in person, and wealthy families from surrounding counties came to express their congratulations. There are countless rich families.
The entire long street was packed with cars and people, all of whom were celebrating birthdays. It looked like a prosperous scene, which made the old Taoist's eyes brighten, but then he sighed. Breaking through the realm failed, and now he can only take a look, but he is powerless and unable to eat even if he wants to.
Following the flow of people, he came to the main entrance of Luo Mansion and saw several juniors from Luo Mansion waiting outside the door to receive visitors from all directions.
Seeing the sloppy Taoist, Luo Ning was startled for a moment, then stepped forward with a smile, "Taoist, today my elder is celebrating his birthday. If you don't mind, please come in and have a drink."
"That's fine, Taoist master happened to be tired, so I'll take a rest here." The sloppy Taoist nodded and walked in swaggeringly.
A junior from the Luo family frowned, "Who are you? He comes here to eat and drink, and he looks so arrogant. What do you want me to say..."
Luo Ning interrupted him, "Okay, please stop saying a few words in front of all the guests." He glanced at the Taoist's back, shook his head and continued to greet other guests.
He is just a lonely old man, how much can he eat and drink? Third uncle celebrates his birthday today, everything should be festive and decent, and must not be a joke to outsiders.
When the old man entered Luo's house, he didn't care about the servants' greetings and found a seat to sit down, causing everyone at the table to frown.
If they change the place, they will definitely call someone to drive this sloppy old man away. Wouldn't it be a loss of status to be at the same table with him? But today... After a moment of hesitation, a few people snorted and endured. They each stepped aside and continued the topic just now.
"This Luo family is really smoking from the ancestral grave. An unknown small family can actually fly out of a Nine Heavenly Dragon!" "Yes, when I knew it at first, I was completely stupid... Emperor Wu Shaoyuan, In the future, he will be in charge of the entire Imperial Martial Academy. What a status and power that will bring, it is simply unimaginable."
"The Hu family in the county town used to be average and lower-level. Now, relying on the relationship with the Luo family, I heard that the county guard held a banquet two days ago and invited Hu Chong to go, which gave him enough face!"
"Hey! This is how one person attains enlightenment, and chickens and dogs ascend to heaven...Tsk, tsk, this Luo family is going to be completely prosperous!"
A group of people sighed with emotion, and suddenly someone said: "I heard that our Lord, the Young Master, has not made a marriage contract yet..."
"What are you thinking about? We can't worry about people like Master Shaoyuan!"
"Having said that, I have heard that the Master of the Young Court values filial piety the most. Now Mr. Luo is still in Jiangning. If the old man says... Not to mention the position of the main wife, it shouldn't be difficult to be the wife of the side courtyard, right? "
Everyone's eyes gleamed when they heard this, and just when their thoughts were wandering, a sneer sounded.
The old Taoist pouted and ate and drank as if he had been hungry for a long time. However, the expression on his face did not show any enjoyment. Instead, he had a frown on his face, as if he was being tortured.
At this moment, facing everyone's angry looks, he turned a blind eye and just gobbled it up.
"You are such a rude old man. If you don't want to listen to what we are talking to, go somewhere else!" A guest in a brocade robe shouted.
The sloppy old Taoist didn't even look at him, "Master Tao is born not to know how to roll, how about you teach me?"
The guests in brocade robes were furious, "How brave..."
But soon, someone stopped him and advised him not to be impulsive and not to offend him today.
The guest in the brocade robe gritted his teeth, "When the Luo family's birthday banquet is over, I will entertain you again, so that you, an experienced person, will know why trouble comes from the mouth!"
The sloppy old Taoist wiped his hands on the dirty Taoist robe, and glanced at the sneering crowd, "I have seen Luo Guan, the Taoist master, in the imperial capital. He is so handsome that he would put 90% of the women in this world to shame."
"You are so honored, and you still want to give birth to a daughter who wants to cling to a high branch? Tsk, tsk, I'm afraid he wouldn't even look at her if she was stripped naked, washed, and thrown on the bed."
These words completely made everyone angry, but before a few people could get angry, a voice sounded from behind him, "Is this Taoist serious, has he ever seen Quanzi in the imperial capital?"
