Chapter 406 Attitude
In the Lu family, Wang Yi still couldn't accept that his son wanted to marry a woman who was only a few years younger than him, no matter how beautiful she was.
"Husband, too, why didn't you stop me?" Wang Yi complained to Yan and Diao Chan with some distress. It's really not that she is picky, it's just that the daughter-in-law here doesn't feel the slightest violation when she calls her sister, thinking that the other party will control her in the future. Wang Yi felt uncomfortable all over when he called her mother.
"Then the Wang family girl is also a noble girl. Besides..." Mrs. Yan originally wanted to say that she was just taking concubines, but considering that Wang Yi's situation is actually similar to Zhen Mi's, if she said this, she would be somewhat looking down on Wang Yi. He stopped talking and changed his words: "Sister Zhen Mi has also seen her. Apart from her age, she is skillful and dignified. She is indeed a good match."
"But she is ten years older than Yong'er!" Wang Yi still couldn't accept it. It was very common for a man to marry someone who was ten years younger than him. He was already ten years younger than his husband, but after all, marrying someone ten years older than him was What's the picture? Have you never seen a woman?
"Although he is older, his appearance and character are both the best for him. He will marry a virtuous wife."
"But after all, he is ten years older."
Seeing Wang Yi's expression, Yan could only comfort her. Sometimes it was not easy to be a lady.
No matter what, this concubine was chosen by Lu Bu and Lu Yong was willing, so the marriage could only go ahead.
On the other side, Lu Yong felt much more comfortable without his mother nagging him. After bidding farewell to his three mothers, he took Dian Wei to Jia Xu's residence.
Originally, he thought that when he came back this time, he would just marry a woman to keep his bed warm and preside over the matter of moving the capital. However, after returning to Chang'an, Lu Yong realized that things were not as simple as he thought!
"Uncle, it seems that someone in Chang'an City wants to cause trouble while father is away." Lu Yong knelt down and saluted Jia Xu.
Jia Xu and Dian Wei were considered close ministers of Lü Bu. In terms of age, Jia Xu was older than Lü Bu. Therefore, they had been referred to as uncle since they were children, so they were considered close.
"Everything in this world can actually be regarded as a word of profit." Jia Xu smiled and helped Lu Yong pour tea and said: "Since the young master can see it, he must have found the key to it, and he will take advantage of the situation. Can."
"Uncle, do you think this matter has something to do with the emperor?" Lu Yong suddenly asked after tasting the tea for a moment.
Jia Xu paused and looked back at Lu Yong, only to see Lu Yong looking at him with burning eyes.
Jia Xu nodded and said: "Everything in this world is always related, but I don't know where the connection is."
"My nephew is still young after all, and some things are difficult to control. Can uncle help my nephew take care of things?" Lu Yong asked with a smile.
"I'm old, so I'm afraid I'm not up to the task." Jia Xu thought for a while, then finally shook his head and said, "Young master, I'd better focus on moving the capital first, and let other things take their own course."
"We, the Lu family, have always worked for the benefit of the people in the world. There are some things that my father is unwilling to fight because of old friendships. However, there are always some people who will feel that my Lu family is easy to bully because of this. My nephew also wants to let nature take its course, but there is always some need for some I need to be smart so that others won't think that my Lu family is easy to bully." Lu Yong sighed: "Uncle, I know that my uncle is the real wise man. I just want to know if this is the right time to come to visit today."
"Yes, that's not right either." Jia Xu sighed. After all, he still couldn't escape these things. Just because Lu Bu didn't fight for some things didn't mean that others didn't want to fight either.
Lu Yong asked in confusion: "What's the explanation?"
Jia Xu thought for a while and said: "If the time is ripe, then it is naturally ripe, but whether the lord is willing or not is another matter."
If Lu Bu wanted to do something these years, he would have done it long ago. However, Lu Bu gave people the impression that he was more like a powerful minister, but he seemed to have no intention of going further. Up to now, there are actually only two kinds of things in the world, one is Lu Bu If you want to do it, the other is if Lu Bu doesn't want to do it. As long as Lu Bu doesn't want to do it, no one can force him. So Lu Yong came here today to ask these questions. Jia Xu didn't want to answer, but he had to answer.
"If this matter has something to do with the emperor, and my father's blind tolerance is what gives these people the confidence to act unscrupulously, then what my father doesn't want to do can only be done by my nephew." Lu Yong probably understood Jia Xu's attitude. , I won’t help myself, but I won’t care about myself either.
Jia Xu nodded with complicated eyes and said: "There is a person Xu can recommend to the Young Master. There are some things that are not suitable for the Young Master to do personally. However, this person has some means that may be able to help the Young Master."
"Who?" Lu Yong asked curiously.
"Sima Yi, the lieutenant in the Ministry of Rites, is a man of great talent and learning. He has a lot of strategy but is also good at forbearance." Jia Xu sat down and said, "With the talent of the young master, it is not difficult to control this man."
For Sima Yi, a subordinate who has been with him for several years, Jia Xu has basically seen through Sima Yi. This person is capable, good at forbearance, and it is difficult for ordinary people to control him. This is a person who knows how to use force, and he is no better than Lu Bu now. Pang Tong and Xu Shucha, whom they rely on, have a personality that is a bit like a wolf. If you don't have some ability, you really can't control it, and you may even be prone to backlash.
But Lu Yong's ability was trained by Lu Bu himself, and his own talent is not bad, with sufficient means, planning, and courage. It is not difficult to control Sima Yi. Although there are some young talents around Lu Yong, no one can compare with Sima Yi. Jia Xu felt that it was a pity that Sima Yi's talents were wasted on his hands. Secondly... Since Lu Yong had this plan, someone had to do the dirty work. Sima Yi came from a family, and he could do this to save his life. Lu Yong's reputation means that if Lu Bu is blamed in the future, there will be someone who will take the blame.
After all, Jia Xu watched Lu Yong grow up. Naturally, he didn't want Lu Yong to be harmed too much in this matter, but for him, he didn't want to go against Lu Bu's will, so it was best to let Sima Yi out. The result is that, but in the future, we have to find someone to handle the affairs of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and we have to look carefully for the next imperial examination.
Lu Yong understood and saluted Jia Xu: "Thank you uncle for your advice."
"I'm just saying casually, sir, don't take it easy, and...I've been feeling unwell lately. I'm afraid I'll have to recuperate for a while after your wedding tomorrow." Jia Xu shook his head and saluted Lu Yong: "I hope you can "Young Master is so kind."
"What did uncle say? If you feel unwell, you should rest more and take good care of yourself." Lu Yong said quickly.
"What's wrong with you?" Dian Wei looked at Jia Xu suspiciously, his face flushed, and he didn't look like he was feeling uncomfortable.
"Of course there is." Jia Xu smiled.
"Since my uncle is not feeling well, my nephew won't bother me anymore." Lu Yong stood up and left.
"Master, go slowly." Jia Xu stood up to see him off, and Dian Wei came up to him and said, "What were you talking about just now?"
"There will be no peace in Chang'an these days. Please protect the safety of the young master." Jia Xu patted Dian Wei and said, "The weather in Chang'an is about to change."
Dian Wei nodded blankly, still not understanding, but Lu Yong had already gone out, and he quickly followed.
Why bother?
Jia Xu looked at the direction Lu Yong was leaving, shook his head and sighed. There were some things that Lu Bu didn't want to do, but that didn't mean that others didn't want to do it. But at this time, he had to hand over the knife to others. It was really...
After Lu Yong said goodbye to Jia Xu, he didn't dare to go back to Taiwei's Mansion. As soon as he returned, he was constantly nagging him, which made his head spin. After thinking about it, he ran to Ma's house to see his nephew Ma Qiu.
"Why did you come to me instead of preparing for the wedding?" Lu Lingqi looked at her brother in confusion.
"There is some trouble at home." Lu Yong said helplessly: "Come to my sister's place to hide and be quiet."
"Your concubine is older than me, no wonder Er Niang dislikes it." Lu Lingqi said speechlessly. When she heard the news, she was also shocked. Zhen Mi is two years older than her, but she is really beautiful. , among the women Lu Lingqi has ever seen, perhaps only the young lady Diao Chan can compare with her.
"You don't understand." Lu Yong had a headache. Why was there still someone nagging me here?
"You have been raised by me since you were a child, how could you not understand? It's just a matter of sex." Lu Lingqi rolled her eyes at him.
Lu Yong glanced at her with some disgust. A few years ago, Lu Lingqi was definitely a devil. She took him to the brothel for the first time, which left a shadow. Since then, he has never been there again. Speaking of which, , it was the first time for him to meet a woman at his age, so his sister was more or less responsible.
"What are you looking at me for?" Lu Lingqi hugged her son and looked at her brother in confusion. This look... she wanted to be beaten?
"Nothing, these days... be careful, I will send some more people over as guards, or you can go back and live with mother and the others for a few days. Chang'an City... may not be peaceful." Lu Yong thought about it. thought.
"It's not peaceful?" Lu Lingqi raised her eyebrows and said, "Father is not here, and someone wants to make trouble?"
"This is their last chance after all." Lu Yong sighed. They had encountered this kind of thing several times since they were young.
"Hmph!" Lu Lingqi snorted coldly. She didn't say anything more, but just nodded and said, "Do what you should do. If the sky falls, my sister will be here!"
When Lu Yong heard this, he felt inexplicably warm in his heart. Although when he was fine, his danger usually came from his elder sister, but when something happened, his elder sister was usually the first one to stand in front of him.
"Sister, don't worry, I'm no longer the child I used to be." Lu Yong said confidently, he was the man who conquered Ye City.
Lu Lingqi looked him up and down: "You've only been a man for a few days, and you already think it's amazing?"
Lu Yong: "..."
This woman can still behave like a woman in front of outsiders, and can even occasionally act coquettishly in front of Ma Chao, but in front of her younger brother, she has no dignity at all that a woman should have, and she dares to say anything.
After all, she is my sister and my father’s favorite daughter, so I can’t do anything~
Lu Yong calmed down his breath and said as kindly as possible: "Anyway, my father is not here, so be careful. I'm going back."
I originally wanted to get some peace and quiet here, but it seems I came to the wrong place.
"I'll go back tomorrow, be careful and don't miss me at home!" Lu Lingqi's voice came from behind, which made Lu Yong's irritable mood calmer, and he waved his hand and left without looking back...
