"Go and report this suggestion to His Majesty. I'll pay a visit to the princess tomorrow. Speaking of which, it's the New Year and I haven't officially visited His Highness yet!" Lu Chen looked at Li Daozong and said with a smile.
"Then you are really incompetent as a military advisor. Those so-called 'disciples' and 'old friends' and so on, who are not scrambling to repay the 'grace of knowing and encountering' during the New Year and festivals, but you, my father-in-law, treat me like this?" The 'highly powerful' Third Sister has forgotten it! I really don't know if I, the Third Sister, would have scolded you as a 'white-eyed wolf' if I knew that you remembered this by chance!" After hearing Lu Chen's words, Li Daozong He directly teased Lu Chen with a smile, and at the same time bitten the "high-ranking and powerful" and "white-eyed wolf" very hard.
"I was really negligent in this matter!" Lu Chen did not refute Li Daozong's teasing, but smiled sheepishly. After all, in this era, he really became what he is today because of meeting Li Xiuning. Given his current status, it is somewhat unjustifiable that he did not go to pay Li Xiuning a New Year greeting in person during the Chinese New Year.
"Do you need me to prepare some gifts for you?" Li Daozong looked at Lu Chen and said with a smile.
"Isn't this ready-made?" Lu Chen pointed at the body armor on the side and smiled.
"Don't mention it yet! This thing is really suitable for my third sister!" Following the direction of Lu Chen's finger, Li Daozong nodded in agreement after seeing the bulletproof vest. Compared with those things like rouge and gouache, My third sister is indeed more interested in these armors and weapons. Maybe this is why my third sister is so "powerful"!
After Li Daozong said this, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, and then they chatted for a while, and then they went to rest.
Turning around, Lu Chen and his people bid farewell to Li Daozong and left the Rencheng Palace. They went to Li Xiuning's Princess Palace. Naturally, it was impossible to bring so many people with them. Lu Chen asked his men to take the convoy back to Lujiazhuang, while he took Liu Jing back. Feng Huai and several Weiwei guards headed straight for the princess's residence.
"Your Majesty, Duke Lu took people to the Princess's Mansion!" Lu Chen took people to the Princess's Mansion to see Li Xiuning. On the other hand, the housekeeper Li Fu made a report with Li Xiaogong, who was sitting in the side hall drinking tea.
"Yes!" After listening to Li Fu's report, Li Xiaogong nodded, "Uncle Fu, let's get started!" Li Xiaogong put down the tea cup in his hand, looked up and whispered to Li Fu.
"Yes!" Li Fu saluted Li Xiaogong, turned around and left the side hall, and sent people to do things according to Li Xiaogong's arrangement.
"Lord Lu Chen of Chang'an County, please see Her Royal Highness Princess Pingyang!" Lu Chen led people to the gate of the princess's mansion. Lin Jiulin was stunned by what Lu Chen had done just as he ran over to greet Lu Chen. .
After all, His Highness had already told him that if the county official in front of him came to the princess's mansion, he could just take him directly to the front hall. However, today, the county official Lu was obviously not following common sense. He asked loudly for information. ghost?
The key point is that Lu Chen's actions will make him easily beaten! For those who don’t know, they thought they had neglected the county magistrate!
"Military advisor, did you offend the military advisor in any way?" Lin Jiucheng asked in fear as he saluted Lu Chen.
"Not really!" Looking at Lin Jiu's frightened expression, Lu Chen said in surprise.
"Since the villain has not offended the young master, then why does the young master want to embarrass the villain?" Lin Jiu looked at Lu Chen with an aggrieved look and said.
"When did I give you a hard time?" Lin Jiu's direct words made Lu Chen stunned and even more surprised.
"His Highness has given an order! When you come, please don't wait. Just go and take a seat in the front hall! If you call the door like this, the villain will inevitably be punished for 'bad hospitality'!" Lin Jiu looked at Lu Chen with a sad face. said.
"It's okay! This guild explained this matter to His Highness, you don't have to worry! I naturally have my own reasons for doing this, and I will definitely not let you be punished!" After hearing Lin Jiu's explanation, Lu Chen immediately understood What was Lin Jiu worried about in front of him, and he said with a smile.
Hearing what Lu Chen said, Lin Jiu felt relieved. At this moment, Lin Jiu saw Lu Chen's eyes sweeping towards the corner of the street in the distance. Lin Jiu was a scout and looked in the direction of Lu Chen's gaze. Naturally, he also caught a glimpse of those figures, and Lin Jiu suddenly had a hint of enlightenment in his heart.
"The young one is going to report to the military advisor now! Please wait a moment for the military advisor!" Lin Jiu saluted directly at Lu Chen, turned around and ran into the princess's mansion.
Not long after, footsteps were heard, the corner door opened, and Chai Shao led someone out of the corner door.
"I have met Duke Huo! I am very scared to be greeted by Duke Huo personally!" Lu Chen saluted the excited Chai Shao and said respectfully.
Chai Shao originally walked towards Lu Chen with a smile on his face, but he was immediately confused by what Lu Chen did. He couldn't figure out why his brother Lu Xian, his future brother-in-law and brother-in-law, suddenly acted like this. come out.
However, after seeing the look Lu Chen gave him, and when he glanced towards the corner of the street, Chai Shao also spotted the shrinking figures at the corner of the street from the corner of his eye, Chai Shao immediately understood. .
"The Duke of County Lu is here, so I will naturally welcome him in person! Please come inside!" Chai Shao also smiled at Lu Chen and cupped his hands, and then directly let Lu Chen into the princess's mansion, but before walking into the princess When he arrived at the house, he winked directly at Lin Jiu, and at the same time pointed the direction of the street corner with his eyes.
Although Lin Jiu is just a janitor at the Princess Mansion, don't forget the origins of this group of people. What's more, someone who can be brought to the Princess Mansion by Li Xiuning is one of the best in the Detachment of Women in terms of loyalty and skill. Of course, there are some who are veterans and homeless, and are raised in the princess's house by Li Xiuning, but the more veterans and oily ones like this, the more terrifying they are.
With just a look from Chai Shao, these people knew what to do! After saluting Chai Shao directly, Lin Jiu ran directly to the side of the courtyard.
"Brothers, we have a job!" Lin Jiu shouted as soon as he walked into the left courtyard located in the third entrance.
This courtyard is the resting place for the guards of the Princess Mansion. Those guards who are not on duty today stay in this courtyard. Of course, there are also those who go out for a walk, but those who go out for a walk may not be able to catch up with this "work" .
As soon as they heard Lin Jiu's shout, those who were playing with stone locks, practicing martial arts, or even washing clothes immediately gathered around.
"Lao Jiu, do you have a job?" The leader was a burly man. In this winter, this man was actually wearing a sleeveless linen sweatshirt with a double-breasted shirt. The chest of the double-breasted sweatshirt was scattered all over. Scar, who had obviously experienced a lot of battles, the big man asked Lin Jiu directly in a loud voice.
"Old Xiong, lower your voice!" Lin Jiu directly signaled the strong man to lower his volume.
"The military advisor is being watched. Our prince-in-law signaled us to get those people back!" After everyone saw Lin Jiu's gesture of lowering his voice, they moved closer, and Lin Jiu whispered.
"Do you want to die or live?" The man known as "Old Bear" asked as low as possible.
"Nonsense, you must live! Death is of no use!" Lin Jiu glared at Old Xiong.
"Why are you talking to Deputy Commander Xiong! We should say, Xiong Yi, if you use your bear brain, the prince-in-law will definitely survive!" A thin man next to him with gleaming eyes laughed. Said, it turns out that the man called "Old Bear" is Xiong Yi, the deputy commander of the princess's palace guard.
Originally, the old bear thought that this kid was complaining on his behalf, but it turned out that this kid was obviously making fun of himself.
He stretched out his hand to catch this kid, but he slithered away and dodged away.
"Okay, stop making trouble! Send out a few people quickly to get those boys back. Of course, don't make too much noise!" Lin Jiu directly shouted to stop Xiong Yi and the lean man from playing.
"Then I'll bring those people back right now!" After hearing Lin Jiu's words, Xiong Yi stopped playing with the lean man and turned to look at Lin Jiu.
Don't think that Lin Jiu is just a gatekeeper who has no say in front of this group of people. In fact, Xiong Yi's position belonged to Lin Jiu at the beginning. However, Lin Jiu was unwilling to take over this position, and even thought of taking care of Captain Wen. Because of this, he rejected this position, and this position fell on Xiong Yi's head.
Of course, the most important thing is that Lin Jiu's ability is ranked first among the entire princess palace guards, so these guards still respect Lin Jiu very much.
"Old Xiong, forget it! Your physique is too eye-catching!" After hearing Xiong Yi's words, Lin Jiu directly rejected Xiong Yi's words, "Qi Liu, bring a few smart people over!" Lin Jiu looked directly at him. Said to the lean man who just teased Xiong Yi.
"Okay! Two quarters of an hour!" Qi Liu nodded, winked at a few people, shook his head, and they put on their clothes and walked towards the moon gate across the courtyard.
"Brother Xian, what did you get into?" Chai Shao, who accompanied Lu Chen to the front hall, looked at Lu Chen and asked.
"Did you receive the dividend?" Lu Chen did not answer Chai Shao's words, but asked about the dividend.
"Su Lie delivered it yesterday!" Chai Shao nodded and replied.
"That's good!" Hearing this, Lu Chen also nodded, "Today I'm here to wish the third princess and Brother Chai New Year!" Lu Chen looked directly at Chai Shao and said with a smile.
"You can pull it off!" After hearing Lu Chen's words, Chai Shao curled his lips and said, "We're just looking at the Lantern Festival, do you remember coming over to say New Year greetings? Let me tell you, Her Royal Highness the Princess didn't come to you. I was quite complaining about the New Year greetings, and even said that I didn't know people well, so you can pray for yourself soon!" Chai Shao looked at Lu Chen and said with a smile, as if he was waiting for a good show.
