"Laugh, laugh, laugh, you two are laughing your ass off!"
Early the next morning, Xie Liangcai rushed into Xu He's room angrily. When he saw Xu He and Wu Decao, he was immediately furious.
Obviously there were so many scholars participating in the cultural gathering, and there were also many officials and officials, so the King of Qi seemed to be bound to Xie Liangcai.
She kept "showing affection" with him in front of everyone!
Xie Liangcai refused in his heart, but he still wanted to force the business on his face. In the end, Xu He and the others finished their meal and left, leaving him alone. He was dragged along by the enthusiastic Prince Qi to talk about life and ideals for a long time, which made him confused. He was very annoyed.
"Brother Defu, this is a good thing. If you can be valued by King Qi, Brother Defu will have a bright future in the future."
"Brother Dev, did you tell your uncle about the literary meeting when you went back? Did your uncle praise you? Hahahaha!"
Speaking of this, Xie Liangcai became angry.
"As soon as I got back, I bumped into my father. He smelled alcohol on my body, and he scolded me in front of so many servants!"
"When I got to the study room, after I told him what happened that day, he directly picked up the ruler and whipped me hard all night long!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Xu He and Wu Decao laughed unkindly again.
Xie Liangcai scolded: "Xu Liangsheng, why do you have the nerve to laugh? If you hadn't asked Lu Ji to pick me up, would I have been spotted by King Qi at the gate?"
Xu He smiled and said: "I didn't expect you to meet His Highness King Qi and King Shu at the gate!"
"Are you lying?" Xie Liangcai spat and said, "Then how do you explain Wu Yaochen's matter? Don't tell me, he asked you to catch a knife for him, and you agreed so readily!"
Wu Decao was dumbfounded. He looked at Xu He with a look of disbelief on his face: "Liangsheng, you, you, you helped me catch the knife, didn't you do it to let me live the addiction of being noticed?"
"Shit! Without you, he wouldn't be able to write a word. But with you, he writes. He pushes you to the front of the stage and tests his articles in the eyes of the bachelor's lecturer and the number one scholar in the Hanlin Academy. What level is it!”
After being exposed, Xu He couldn't help but said quickly: "Brother Defu, what you said is really hurtful..."
Wu Decao looked at Xu He with a look of despair: "Liangsheng, I originally thought you were doing it for me. Although I was humiliated in Lian Yutang, I am still grateful to you. I didn't expect..."
"Uh..." Xu He looked at the resentment duo and had to surrender: "Okay, I admit that I have some, uh, other plans! But, Brother Dev, you have to use a car when you go out to buy onions. , is my arrangement in place?"
"fart!"
"Brother Yaochen, are you crying and begging me to help you catch the knife? Have I satisfied you?"
"Shit!"
"Okay, okay, you guys are shit, right? Then I admit, I do have my own little thoughts in it!"
"Bold, so brave..."
After the three of them laughed and laughed, they sat down. Xu He poured a cup of tea for them and said, "Don't you think this literary meeting is a little strange?"
"What's so strange?" Wu Decao asked.
Xie Liangcai took a sip of tea and said, "It's really strange."
"You said that this British government has different paths in civil and military affairs. It stands to reason that such a noble family is under the emperor's nose. How can it be so close to scholars?"
"Also, why did the young prince from the British government come to invite you Xu Liangsheng in person? Yes, that's right, you have an uncle called Mr. Xu Ge, and you are also Jie Yuanlang. But again, why did the Lu family do this? Do you value you so much?"
"It's not because of Lu Heng..." Wu Decao interrupted.
"Who is Lu Heng?" Xie Liangcai was confused.
Xu He told the story of Xue Yongzhi taking Lu Heng to Hailing to play tricks on him.
Xie Liangcai said in surprise: "The last time you were washed away by the flood? Aren't you the only one who was washed away? Why is there another Lu Heng?"
Xu He rolled his eyes at him: "Because she is a woman, how could she tell others that she disappeared with a man like me for so many days?"
Xie Liangcai nodded and thought for a long time before saying: "But it's not right!"
"What's wrong?"
Xie Liangcai continued: "The British princes of this generation only have three sons, and there is only one legitimate son, Lu Ji. I have never heard of a British prince having a daughter!"
Xu He smiled when he heard this: "Maybe it's a side branch..."
He stopped mid-sentence, side story...
No, it's definitely not a side branch.
There is no way that a member of a branch of the British government would be so nervous if something happened to him, such as Xue Yongzhi, the young prince, personally escorted him.
It is impossible for the side clan members of the British Duke's Palace to have an old eunuch with as much energy as Eunuch Zheng accompanying them.
What's even weirder is that if the British government invites him to attend a cultural gathering because of Lu Heng, even if they are not allowed to meet because of Lu Heng's daughter, they will still mention it like this.
But if he hadn't mentioned it on his own initiative, Lu Ji would have had no intention of mentioning it.
Wrong, still wrong.
Every time I write to Lu Heng, the address I send to is the British government.
Moreover, Lu Heng responded promptly.
what's going on?
Ever since he came to the capital, Xu He always felt that everything was weird.
It seems that there are still too few sources of information in the capital.
If only Lao Hu could be a well-informed petty official in the capital!
I miss Lao Hu!
…
Two days later, the Prince of Shu's Mansion actually sent over the title deed and key to Wu Decao's courtyard.
Accompanying him was a companion from the Prince of Shu's Mansion.
This reading companion is not the kind of book boy or reading companion that wealthy families would find for their children.
The companion of the Prince of Shu's Mansion is an upright and official court official, although he is only... from the ninth rank!
The companion of the Prince of Shu's Mansion was a middle-aged man in his thirties. He was very polite after seeing Wu Decao. Wu Decao refused to accept the title deed and the key to the small courtyard, but this man dropped the things and only said that they were gifts from the Prince of Shu. There is no reason to take things back.
After dealing with the matters in the small courtyard, the companion asked Xu He: "May I ask if Wu Jiansheng is a friend of Xu He and Xu Liangsheng, who was the judge of the Southern Zhili Township Examination!"
really.
After reporting the address of Huayuan Hutong, the Shu Palace must have known about Xu He behind Wu Decao.
"Liang Sheng is renting a yard outside, preparing to move out of Mr. Xu Ge's mansion, and concentrate on preparing for the exam!"
The companion's eyes lit up when he heard this and said, "Xu Jieyuan is looking for a house?"
Wu Decao: "..."
An hour later, as soon as Xu He returned to Xu Song's house, he saw Wu Decao standing at the door with a fawning look on his face.
"Liangsheng, there is something I want to tell you!"
"Lack of money?"
"No, no, no, look..." After Wu Decao finished speaking, he turned around and took out a plate.
On the plate were a land deed, a bunch of keys, and an invitation.
"Is it someone from the Prince of Shu's palace?"
"Did you guess it? Do you want to go back?"
"Forget it, stay, you can't go back!"
