The fourth prince finally figured it out. Everyone believed that things like cultivating power should be hidden deep and buried tightly.
But he just openly displayed his relationship with Qiao Shifang for everyone to see. When everyone thought they were just good friends, they did the opposite and got married openly through everyone's misunderstanding. Become a party member.
But as the saying goes, you can never wake up a person who is pretending to sleep. If you can't offend me, you can't hide from me.
"Brother Lu, haha, you have worked hard, you must be tired from this trip to Huashan."
Qiao Shifang came up with a letter of snacks and put his arm around Lu Hanjiang's shoulders, looking like a best friend. Ever since this guy got involved with the fourth prince, his originally unstable temperament had become even more unruly. .
Qiao Shifang is the youngest among the thousands of Jinyiwei families. Of course, this does not include Lu Hanjiang.
He is only in his early thirties. He comes from a wealthy family. He has money and power. He also has a handsome face. He is handsome and full of energy, making him look like a handsome young man.
It was the Feiyu suit that delayed him. If not, there would have been countless women in the capital falling for him.
"Brother Qiao Xian came just in time, have you had dinner?"
Hearing this, Qiao Shifang twitched his lips but said nothing for a while. Every time he heard Lu Hanjiang, who looked only in his early twenties, call him a good brother, he always felt like he was being taken advantage of.
"Unfortunately, there are still some errands to be done next," Qiao Shifang let go of Lu Hanjiang's hand, put the snacks on the table, and looked around: "I wonder where Brother Lu has placed the person?" Already?"
"Old Qian." Lu Hanjiang called inside. The housekeeper and his two children were already waiting in another room. When they heard the greeting, they immediately came out with them.
Although the two children of Shang Jidao have not yet been crowned, they look really good. The boy is young and handsome, and the girl is cute as ice and snow.
He is young, but has an extraordinary mind. When he saw Jin Yiwei standing in front of him, his brother was protecting his sister, but his eyes were full of caution, and he did not show panic at all. He looked a bit like a young hero.
"The headmaster of Huashan is not very handsome, but his two children are very cute." Qiao Shifang said in a frivolous tone, not caring at all about the two children's glares at him.
"I'll leave this person to you. Bei Si will no longer interfere in this matter, and I won't ask any more questions." As he spoke, Lu Hanjiang suddenly reached out and patted the young man on the shoulder, which made the latter tremble: "Speaking of which , Mr. Shang and I still have some friendship, so I want Brother Qiao to take good care of these two children."
"..."
As soon as these words came out, not only the two children of Shang Jidao were stunned, but also the smile on Qiao Shifang's face froze.
Good guy, just pretend to be stupid, Qiao Shifang doesn't believe that Lu Hanjiang can't guess the person behind Shang Jidao based on Lu Hanjiang's skills. So far, Shang Jidao has almost put the words "Fourth Prince" on his forehead.
But Lu Hanjiang didn't follow the routine and revealed the matter directly. At best, this was because he was affectionate and righteous. At worst, Jiang Xiao's body was buried not long ago, and Huashan itself is not clean. You... Aren't you causing trouble for yourself?
Qiao Shifang felt a headache. The leader of Jinyiwei was Lu Hanjiang's backstage, so there was nothing he could do about it.
But soon, Qiao Shifang adjusted his mentality. If this thing didn't work out, he didn't expect to bring Lu Hanjiang to their side with just a few words and a few people. At most, it would just make them more friendly through this matter.
As for Lu Hanjiang leaking the relationship between the fourth prince and Shang Jidao? Qiao Shifang didn't think about it at all. On the one hand, this matter was nothing more than the fact that the fourth prince admired the majesty of the head of Huashan and took care of his youngest son in the capital out of good intentions.
After all, they didn't have much of a relationship to begin with.
On the other hand, isn't it because they have such mutual secrets that they can be called friends?
"Brother Lu is very righteous." Qiao Shifang bowed his hands to Lu Hanjiang. Since the other party wanted to pretend to be stupid, he should pretend to be stupid with him. After all, this is the capital, and some things don't have to be said.
"Better go, brother Qiao Xian."
After sending Qiao Shifang all the way out of the door, Lu Hanjiang stopped the smile on his face, curled his lips nonchalantly, and went back to his room to continue tinkering with his gadgets.
Lu Hanjiang's study room is filled with books on all kinds of weird and obscene techniques, whether it's hidden weapons or formations and five elements. In short, anything that has nothing to do with reading is basically available here.
Before Qiao Shifang arrived, Lu Hanjiang was playing with the building blocks on the table, holding a book of mechanisms in his hand, which was rumored to be the lifelong learning of a former mechanism master.
I don’t know whether it’s true or false, but as a gift from others, at least its gold content won’t be outrageous, so Lu Hanjiang has been thinking about this thing recently when he has nothing to do.
It just seemed that he had no talent in this area. Not long after, his butler, Lao Qian, came in with tea.
Lu Hanjiang never asked Butler Qian's specific name. The steward himself said that he had forgotten everything in the past.
This housekeeper was arranged for him by Lu Shangshu when he just left the Lu family. His daily life is now taken care of by the housekeeper.
At the same time, if there is any news that needs to be conveyed to Lu Shangshu, Lao Qian will be responsible for it.
"Master," Lao Qian put down the tea, and at the same time took out a few pieces of paper with some names and related introductions written on them: "Everything you asked me to ask about is here."
Lu Hanjiang put down the blocks in his hand without hesitation, and picked up the information compiled by Lao Qian. The records on it were all the guys who had been making trouble in the arena recently, which made him happy.
"Where did another 'Thief Saint' pop up here? He must be a self-proclaimed one."
Lu Hanjiang really didn't understand that these thieves were not very capable, but the names they gave each one were loud. I wonder if the more famous you are, the easier it is to get caught. The first three thieves are still in prison, and this has popped up again A thief saint is coming, is he planning to get together for a table of mahjong?
Seeing that Lu Hanjiang was getting interested, Old Qian who was waiting aside said, "This old slave has also heard about this. I heard that this 'Sage of Thieves' often appears in the south of the Yangtze River and specializes in attacking big families. What he steals is neither property nor jewelry, but They were some books, so some good people in the world thought that this person was a good thief, so they gave him the name 'The Saint of Thieves'."
"Heh, stealing books is not considered stealing, right?" Lu Hanjiang raised his brows a little, took out his pen and ink, and marked under the name of "Thief Saint".
Then, Lu Hanjiang rummaged for a while and rounded up another swordsman with a good reputation. This man was engaged in murder and smuggling. He had escaped from being rounded up by the court many times just because of his high martial arts skills.
Here Lu Hanjiang was minding his own writing on the list, but over there Lao Qian couldn't help but look away. Everything else was easy to say, just that word.
Although Lao Qian was reluctant to preach to Lu Hanjiang due to his status, his eyes still showed a little helplessness and contempt. You said that you are also from the Lu family after all. You have learned from the old Meng family since you were young. You have learned this handwriting How could it be written in such an ugly way...
