Daming Wuhou

The incident of running water had nothing to do with Lu Changting, so he just came to have a look, and then went back.Zhu Xi, on the other hand, had to preside over the overall situation with a long face.After all, the matter of running out of water has always been a big deal!

Lu Changting threw Zhu Xi's gloomy face behind him, returned to the hall, changed his clothes, and lay down comfortably on the bed.But after being disturbed, Lu Changting couldn't fall asleep again for a long time.After hesitating for a while, Lu Changting simply turned over, sat down at the table, and took out his pen and ink...

I can't sleep anyway, so why not... write a letter to Zhu Di...

But when the paper was spread out and the pen and ink were dipped, Lu Changting had some difficulties.

He should have treated Zhu Di coldly, after all, it was Zhu Di who thought about him that he shouldn't have.But now he took the initiative to lean forward again, isn't it...not good?Lu Changting tightly gripped the pen in his hand.

Because of the long suspension time, the ink condensed and dripped on the paper, forming a big black spot.Fortunately, the paper used in the Qin. Wang. Mansion is all high-quality paper, and the ordinary ink dots are impenetrable, so there is no tragedy of one sheet polluting multiple sheets.

Lu Changting reflexively wanted to remove the paper, but after thinking about it, wouldn't it show that he attached great importance to this letter?Really cheap Zhu Di!Lu Changting was not at all willing to show any signs of softening towards Zhu Di at such a time.After getting along for such a long time, he has already known Zhu Di too well.With Zhu Di's character, as long as he sees the slightest sign of softening, he will completely firm up.If he was not worried about Zhu Di's safety, he would not have given Zhu Di any ink.

The slander belongs to the slander, Lu Changting still honestly picked up the pen and continued to write.This time, he didn't hesitate anymore, after all, he didn't want to add a few more black dots on the paper.

In order not to reveal his emotional tendencies, Lu Changting tried his best to keep the letter as short as possible, and even chose neutral words that do not express emotions...so what ended up on the paper was just that. Two sentences:

The White Lotus Sect attacked Qin Wang's mansion.Yanwang Mansion must be on guard.

After finishing writing, Lu Changting felt that it was almost done.The more few words, the more it can show the seriousness of the matter, so that they can be more vigilant.And the less you talk, the less easy it is for people to judge his attitude.

After Lu Changting put away the letter and packed it, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The eunuch happily took the letter, thinking that it was finally time to please this Mr. Lu and show his abilities.The eunuch took the letter and ran away.He is the person who always waits by King Qin's side, so it's very easy to prepare a messenger.

Lu Changting looked at the back of the eunuch going away, and then went to bed to rest.

Lu Changting leaned on the bed and fell asleep for a long time.

When Zhu Xi came back, he was exhausted to the extreme, but his complexion looked much better than before.

As soon as Lu Changting opened his eyes, he met his face, and Lu Changting was really startled.

"Two people were caught." Zhu Xi said in a low voice, "I ordered them to be locked up with Guerlain first. After two days, there will be an interrogation."

Lu Changting nodded, but didn't care.After all, the rest has nothing to do with him.Lu Changting couldn't help but yawned.

Zhu Xi took a sip of tea, frowned and said, "Changting, I want to remove the door and the screen... You said yesterday that you can easily make such a Feng Shui formation just by relying on the existing screen and door. Don't worry about it." It's like leaving a natural handle for others, and people like Zhu Xi naturally don't feel at ease.

Lu Changting could understand his worries, but he still had to explain the situation in more detail: "I said long ago that good fortune comes with misfortune. No matter what is in Feng Shui, it can become good. It may be bad, or it may become bad. When we made the screen and gossip on the door, it was all for the good of Qin Wang’s mansion, but no one thought that it would be used by thieves and turned into a sharp knife for harming people.”

"Changting, the meaning of your words..."

"What I mean is, it's hard to eradicate them fundamentally. At least taking them out is not a one-and-done solution. It's better to rectify the palace first... However, it's also very troublesome." Are they all under the control of King Qin?This is too difficult!

"Naturally, troubles have to be done." For the Zhu family who are extremely controlling, how can they allow three or two rats on their territory?

Lu Changting nodded and didn't say anything else, Zhu Xi will take care of these things one by one.

"and also……"

what else?Lu Changting looked at him slightly surprised.

"White Lotus Sect." Zhu Xi emphasized the pronunciation of these three words.I also want to know that Zhu Xing now hates the White Lotus Sect to the extreme. If the plan to eliminate the White Lotus Sect could be delayed before, then Zhu Xing is already impatient at this time.

"Changting, the White Lotus Sect is a thorn in my heart right now, if I don't get rid of it, I really feel too uncomfortable."

People are always unable to relax in matters that are directly related to themselves.

Lu Changting rubbed his forehead: "At first, I was also thinking about what method to use and what kind of Feng Shui formation to set up. Since the White Lotus Sect is one step ahead, we can use the ready-made ones, which is exactly what the saying goes. Also heal his body."

Zhu Xi was startled for a moment, but immediately there was great interest: "How to use it to treat the body? They don't have such a gossip gate, and they don't have such a big screen."

"But we have paper figurines, not to mention that every building and every house has five ghost seats." Lu Changting said lightly: "It's too difficult to tamper with the five ghost seats in other people's houses. Going to a restaurant to tamper with it is not a bad idea." Disaster."

It is precisely because the White Lotus Sect deliberately wants to hide among so many people, so they have tried their best to make the restaurant so crowded that today's customers come in like a cloud, and once there are more people, the White Lotus Sect will naturally be unable to monitor them all the time. Whatever you do, the chances of trying to mess with it are too great.

Zhu Xing's eyes brightened slightly, and a happy expression appeared on his face: "Okay! Just do as Chang Ting said."

"I have to go to the restaurant again."

"I'll accompany you..."

"No need, such a big incident happened in Qin Wang's mansion. If the second brother is still interested in accompanying me to the restaurant, they should know that we are going to the restaurant."

Zhu Xi frowned: "But your safety..."

Lu Changting said in his heart that your majestic King Qin's safety is much more important than mine!But in the end Lu Changting just said, "It's good to be accompanied by guards."

"Well." Zhu Xi didn't want anything to happen to Lu Changting in Xi'an at all. This was not only a problem that endangered Lu Changting's safety, but also made a joke of what he had said sonorously in Beiping.At the same time, it will only provide Zhu Di with an opportunity, a favorable opportunity to bring Lu Changting back to Beiping.

Zhu Xi had a lot of thoughts in his heart, and at the same time, he also decided how many people he would send to follow Lu Changting.

"Second brother, don't you go back to rest first?" Lu Changting's voice interrupted Zhu Xi's thoughts.

It was nothing at first, but now being reminded by Lu Changting, Zhu Xi also felt extremely tired, he nodded, took the eunuch and his relatives back to his bedroom.Lu Changting tossed and turned on the bed for a while, but fell asleep again.This time I fell asleep again until the afternoon before waking up.

When Lu Changting got up, Zhu Xi had already got up.Zhu Xi was about to ask someone to prepare the meal, but was interrupted directly by Lu Changting.

"No need." Lu Changting whispered, "I'll go to the restaurant in a while."

"So fast?"

Lu Changting gave him a strange look: "But the manpower is not ready?"

"Of course not, the guards can accompany you to the restaurant at any time. I just, just feel a little worried..."

"It's fine." Lu Changting was indeed hungry, so he didn't want to waste time here. He was about to go out immediately, and said, "Where are the guards?"

Zhu Xi had no choice but to immediately recruit all the guards.

This time it was Lu Changting's turn to be helpless.

"Is this person... a little too much?" Lu Changting asked hesitantly.

"A lot?" Zhu Xi didn't care, "It takes so many people to protect you."

At first Lu Changting thought that the momentum was too big, making him more flamboyant than the real prince, but then he thought, the more fanfare he had, the more the people of the White Lotus Sect would take it lightly.After all, those who do secret things should minimize the number of people.With such a big fanfare, the first time people see him, they must think that he can't do anything big.How nice it is.

Lu Changting finally nodded in agreement.

Seeing that he didn't intend to reject him at all, Zhu Xi was also relieved.

Lu Changting and his party quickly set off for the restaurant.Although there was no King Qin accompanying him this time, Lu Changting still went in the carriage.

Just after they left, another group of people arrived outside the city gate of King Qin's Mansion.

……

Although the restaurant run by Bailianjiao had a lot of customers, it was rare for Lu Changting to be in a row. When the shopkeeper saw the car driving, he thought it was the King of Qin who came and greeted him personally.Many people in the restaurant also poked their heads out to look.After all, even Zhu Xi seldom used this battle when he was traveling.Naturally, it is inevitable to attract the attention of others.

But they never expected that when the door of the carriage opened, it was a young man who got out. This is not King Qin at all!

The onlookers immediately lost most of their interest.

But Lu Changting's face was extremely unforgettable for the shopkeeper. Not only did he not lose interest, but he seemed to be more enthusiastic, and he interpreted the face of a businessman quite well.That's right!In Lu Changting's view, these attitudes of his are all disguised to fit the image of a businessman.

After bringing Lu Changting upstairs, the guards stood beside him, the deterrent force was really extraordinary, especially when the box was small, and some of them had to stand outside the box, facing the guests downstairs, The guests downstairs were even more stunned, and secretly guessed what the origin of this young man was.

Those guests couldn't figure it out, and neither could Lu Changting over here.

The shopkeeper was so warm to him that he even served tea and water by himself.Even if it's a disguise, you don't have to pretend to be this far, right?After all, he does not represent King Qin himself, and the treatment he can get will not be higher than that of King Qin.Then there is only one possibility...the shopkeeper wants to get something from him.But what can he get?He doesn't even know his identity.

Oh no, not necessarily.After all, if the White Lotus Sect has evil intentions and wants to murder Zhu Xi, as long as they know that they are close to Zhu Xi, wouldn't it be enough?Perhaps originally they were counting on Concubine Deng or Guerlan, but now Concubine Deng has fallen out of favor, Guerlan has been imprisoned, and other people have also been recruited.So they decided to go the other way.But are they too impatient?

Lu Changting temporarily suppressed the thoughts roiling in his head, and asked the shopkeeper in a low voice: "Does the shopkeeper treat every customer who comes here with such personal and thoughtful service?"

The shopkeeper has a round face and looks like a Maitreya Buddha.Generally, a person with this kind of face is very suitable for opening a restaurant, after all, this face is easy to make people like him.No one would reject or be wary of a cheerful face.

The shopkeeper shook his head: "You are different, you are a distinguished guest." The shopkeeper bit down the word "visited guest" hard.

Lu Changting raised his eyebrows, he couldn't figure out how he became a distinguished guest.So Lu Changting said with a smile: "Your restaurant, I think there are many distinguished guests..."

The shopkeeper smiled and shook his head.

Lu Changting always felt that at that moment, he caught a glimpse of something from the shopkeeper's eyes.It was a sly color.

Lu Changting couldn't figure it out after much deliberation, and he didn't mean to reveal it when he asked the shopkeeper. In this case, Lu Changting didn't bother to care about his ambiguous attitude.Now it is the White Lotus Sect who is rushing to curry favor with him, not him.If the White Lotus Sect had any purpose, it would have to be revealed sooner or later.

After settling down, Lu Changting calmly waited for the food to be served, without even looking at the shopkeeper.But the shopkeeper seemed determined to wait aside.Lu Changting was fine, but the guards around him couldn't help being anxious.They were worried that with the shopkeeper by their side, Lu Changting would not be able to take a good look at the entire restaurant.

How did they know that Lu Changting had already memorized the appearance of the entire restaurant in his mind?The purpose of coming here this time is to combine the method I thought of with the actual situation and rehearse it in my mind.He didn't need it at all, he carefully looked at every corner of the restaurant.If this is the case, it would be strange not to attract the restaurant's attention.

Soon, the dishes were served.

The shopkeeper leaned forward again and continued to pour tea and water for Lu Changting, with a very low posture.

The guards didn't even have a chance to go forward to show their performance, and they were immediately depressed, and they were even more dissatisfied with the shopkeeper from the bottom of their hearts.

These palace guards are different from Concubine Deng. They will not guess what relationship Lu Changting has with Zhu Xi. After all, they often follow Zhu Xi. They know that their prince is really good to this Mr. Lu, but it is indeed only from brothers. Friendship, not to mention the matter of Feng Shui this time, they admired Lu Changting even more.Of course, they also thought that Lu Changting had a lot of good luck with Zhu Xi, so they naturally hoped to serve Lu Changting well at this time.

Who knew that the shopkeeper seemed to have taken the wrong medicine!

The shopkeeper put the soup into Lu Changting's bowl with a smile, and moved forward even more.

Lu Changting: "..." The other party's face moved closer to him.

"Mr. Lu, may I ask that you are a good friend of shopkeeper Shi Jiaci?"

Shi Jiaci?What a familiar name, of course Lu Changting did not forget it. After all, when he left Beiping, he was given a plaque... What shocked Lu Changting at this time was how did Shi Jiaci get involved with the White Lotus Sect?As for why the shopkeeper knew that he and Shi Jiaci knew each other, Lu Changting was not interested anymore.

Lu Changting's voice suddenly turned cold: "Who are you?" This of course asked about the relationship between the shopkeeper and Shi Jiaci.

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "I am his second uncle. It is also a kind of fate to meet his good friend here."

Is this... a relationship with him?

People from the White Lotus Sect are trying to get involved with him?Lu Changting couldn't help the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.He's not crazy is he?Okay, what's the relationship?

Seeing that Lu Changting was not only unmoved, but also had a cold face, the shopkeeper refused to give up from the bottom of his heart.

"Mr. Lu, since we met by fate, why don't you come here to eat more in the future. Mr. Lu is a good friend, if there is anything that needs my help, we are obliged. Although our business is small, but... there are always things It can help Mr. Lu." He said this with a lot of meaning.

It's a pity that Second Uncle Shi didn't know that he was wrong, because until now, Lu Changting still didn't know what he was talking about.

Of course, the members of the White Lotus Sect took the initiative to come forward, and Lu Changting would not just deny it like this. He nodded, but didn't say much else.

Second Uncle Shi only thought he was being cautious, so he walked away tactfully.

At this time, the guards couldn't bear it anymore, and cursed: "What a big tone! Could it be that the cooks of our Qin. Wang. Mansion can't compare with your small restaurant? Naturally, Mr. Lu doesn't like it!" The guards only heard I read the first half of what I just said, but didn't hear the second half, so I just scolded like this, otherwise it would be more than that.

In fact, such a scolding, on the contrary, shows that Qin Wang's mansion has no suspicion of going to the restaurant.Uncle Shi quickly apologized with a smile.

Lu Changting was still observing Second Uncle Shi carefully. He found that the man's smile seemed extremely sincere. He was really happy. Was he just happy that the Qin Wang Mansion didn't follow them?Lu Changting felt that he should be more than happy about this.

Lu Changting turned his attention back.Nothing is more important than eating at this time.Lu Changting slowly enjoyed the food, and glanced downstairs from time to time, as if attracted by the voices downstairs, his movements couldn't be more natural.Soon, an hour passed, and Lu Changting had almost finished eating.When he stood up, Second Uncle Shi followed suit and sent him out graciously.

When Lu Changting got into the carriage, the guard who drove the carriage couldn't help but said: "What's wrong with this man? I haven't seen this shopkeeper like this before! Could it be that he has already started to guard against us? Mr. Lu couldn't see anything just now Right?" The guard's voice was full of anger and regret, thinking about it now, the guards even felt that they should have driven the shopkeeper out.

Immersed in his own thoughts... The guard heard an extremely calm voice from inside the carriage: "It's okay, I've seen everything I need to see."

The guard almost dropped his jaw in shock: "When did you watch it?"

"When I was eating, I would look downstairs after eating for a while, didn't you notice?"

The guard smiled: "We thought you were attracted by what those people downstairs said."

Lu Changting also smiled slightly: "That's just right, I guess the shopkeeper thinks so too."

The guard laughed, and it took him a long time to hold back a sentence: "Young Master Lu is amazing!"

Soon, their carriage entered the city gate.Of course, the carriage can only travel for a certain distance, and it is impossible to drive completely to the front of the main hall.Whenever this time, Lu Changting had to sigh, this is not as good as Yan Wangfu.Although King Yan's Mansion is small, it's easy to walk around!

When Lu Changting got off the carriage, a young eunuch came up to him and said, "Master Lu, the prince is waiting for you."

Lu Changting thought that Zhu Xi was waiting to hear his results, so he went quickly without delay.

As soon as he entered the hall, Lu Changting first saw two unfamiliar faces.

A face is a bit old, because people in this era are generally prematurely aging, and they always look older than their actual age. Ordinary people will never be able to tell how old he is, but this is not difficult for Lu Changting. Lu Changting only takes a rough look. With just a few glances, one can tell that the person in front of him is in his fifties.As for the other person, his face was a little younger, with a serious expression on his face, and he seemed to be a scholar.

Who else could appear here at this time?

Lu Changting's mind turned quickly, and finally fixed on the teacher Zhu Xi had hired for him.

Only this one explains it.

In fact, when Lu Changting was looking at them, they were also looking at Lu Changting.Good-looking people are always more popular. This is not only among the opposite sex, but also among men, women and children. This principle can be used universally.After all, the appreciation of beauty is an innate instinct of human beings.We all have an instinctive liking for beautiful things.

At this time, when the two people looked at Lu Changting, they developed a slight affection.

Especially when this person is not only good-looking, but also has a pair of good-looking eyes, the favorability will be doubled.

After all, it is often said that the eyes are the windows of the soul. This sentence is really not a lie. You can see a lot of things by looking at a person's eyes.When the two saw the clarity in Lu Changting's eyes, they naturally liked it even more.

At this time, Lu Changting was puzzled.Who is the teacher of these two?Lu Changting thought of the person who reported the news before saying that the gentleman met an old friend on the road, so he delayed the trip.So one of them must be the teacher's old friend.

At this time Zhu Xing came in, seeing Lu Changting already standing in the hall, Zhu Xing couldn't help laughing and said: "Here it is, I just sent someone to prepare some snacks for you."

Lu Changting shook his head: "No need, I'm a little... full." Eating slowly in that restaurant, I ate a lot of food invisibly, and on the way back, I took a carriage, so naturally it was not Need some snacks.

Zhu Xi smiled in a good mood, and then asked: "How is it? Are you satisfied with each other?"

This is like a blind date...

At this moment, the serious-faced man said, "Well, I'm satisfied."

Lu Changting was quite uncomfortable at first, but now hearing the man's serious tone, he felt like laughing.Of course, it is very unwise to laugh on such occasions, so Lu Changting just nodded: "Very good. But this..."

Before Zhu Xing could introduce him, the man said, "My surname is Zou, my name is Yu, and my name is Zhumo."

Yu, pointing to the pen.Isn't that what Zhumo means?

Immediately afterwards, without waiting for Lu Changting to ask, Zou Zhumo pointed to his friend next to him and said, "This is my old friend, who is quite accomplished in writing. His surname is Luo, his name is originally written, his character is Guanzhong, and his name is Huhai Sanren."

Lu Changting was stunned for a moment.

wait... what?The surname is Luo, and the character is Guanzhong?

Luo Guanzhong? !

This name is so shocking to future generations that Lu Changting almost lost consciousness for a moment.

"I was invited by His Highness King Qin to come to Xi'an City to teach you articles."

Isn't the imperial examination just writing articles?The teacher Zhu Xing hired is naturally good at this.Lu Changting has never heard of Zou Yu's name, but Luo Guanzhong's reputation is too great, this buy one get one free deal...is a good deal!

This Zou Zhumo was too straightforward, he didn't say much other greetings, he really didn't look like a modern literati, but Lu Changting had to say that it would be much more convenient to deal with such a person.

"How about going to class today?" Zou Zhumo said.

Zhu Xi pointed to the sky outside: "This sky..."

"It's okay, it's only a short while, I just want to know more about some students."

Probably similar to the basic test of later generations, Lu Changting didn't know how strong his background was now, so he could only nod silently.

Zhu Xi had no choice but to move along with Lu Changting to the specially vacated study room.

After being seated, Zou Zhumo didn't even turn over the book, and said first: "The imperial examination examines the four books and three righteousness, and the classics and righteousness four. Let's start with the four books. Historically, there are very few imperial examinations for colleges and universities. Mencius. Let me ask you Mencius. The people of Qi attacked Yan and took it, and the princes tried to rescue Yan. King Xuan of Qi asked Mencius how to treat him. Do you remember how Mencius answered?"

Ah, just recite.

Lu Changting was a little nervous at first, because he hadn't experienced such a life for a long time, but at this moment Lu Changting suddenly felt a burst of relief, because he knew how to answer Zou Zhumo's question.

"I heard that Tang is the one who governs the world for seventy miles. I have never heard of those who are afraid of people for thousands of miles. The book says: 'Tang's first levy began from Ge.' The world believes in it." ;Leave from the south, and Bei Di complains. Said, Xi is my successor? 'The people look forward to it, like a drought. Those who return to the market will not stop, and those who cultivate will remain the same. To punish the king and hang the people is like the rain Surrender, and the people are happy. The book said: 'After I die, Qisu will come later.'..." Lu Changting memorized the words catchy, and gradually the feeling of nervousness and restraint disappeared completely.

Zou Zhumo nodded, without showing any expression on his face, he asked again: "If it were you, how would you answer?"

Lu Changting:? ? ?

This topic is overkill!

Lu Changting looked at Zou Zhumo, and Zou Zhumo looked at him, and finally Lu Changting confirmed that he was really not joking.Lu Changting couldn't help muttering to himself, who said that the ancients only took stereotyped essays in the imperial examination, and these questions alone are quite annoying!Not to mention the need to make judgments and make watches, and rely on the past and the present, and familiarity with the current dynasty to examine policies and theories.

Lu Changting once again felt that he might not be able to pass the imperial examination.He is not good at writing these essays...but at this time the teachers are all around, so naturally Lu Changting can't say anything.

What's more, if he just admits defeat like this, doesn't it also make him look very spineless?

Lu Changting hesitated for a while, and said, "Kill anyone who wants to fuck me."

Zou Zhumo's serious face showed surprise for the first time: "What?"

Lu Changting repeated seriously: "The king of Qi took Yan, and other vassal states wanted to fight against the king of Qi, so the king of Qi had to kill them all." Mencius carried out the main purpose of popular support in that passage.But in fact, in Lu Changting's view, even if the king of Qi still gave various preferential treatment to the royal family of Yan after defeating the kingdom of Yan, it would not improve anything, and it would still not change the fact that Qi was growing, so why should the princes do him? .

Zou Zhumo was almost overwhelmed by Lu Changting.

In fact, he didn't expect Lu Changting to answer anything. This was a bottom-out behavior. He wanted to know how Lu Changting's foundation was and how his brain reacted.Who would have thought that Lu Changting would be so... rude.

Zou Zhumo has absolutely no idea that the Emperor Yongle, who will be in power in the future, will be exactly the same rude, and anyone who wants to do things in the Ming Dynasty will be done by him...

Zhu Xi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and stood up and said, "Sir, you shouldn't have asked him such a question. Why did you ask this one among so many other questions?" Although Zhu Xi felt that Lu Changting's words were rude, it sounded good. of.

Zou Zhumo also regretted it now, why did he ask such a question.Zou Zhumo's complexion barely recovered, and then he asked the Analects again.This time, he didn't come up with a stroke of genius.He just asked Lu Changting politely if he knew the meaning and learned the truth.After these questions, Zou Zhumo finally felt comfortable.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Zou Zhumo wanted to go to rest with Luo Guanzhong.

Zhu Xi smiled and said: "Sir, wait a minute, don't you wait for Changting to worship the teacher's tea?"

Zou Zhumo waved his hand: "No need. Please forgive me for being impolite, His Royal Highness Qin Wang. My friend feels very uncomfortable at night, so it's really not good to stay longer."

Naturally, Zhu Yu didn't force it, so he directly ordered someone to deliver the food and wine to their house.

After the people had left, Lu Changting sat down and said slowly, "I think he'll regret it later."

"Regret? How come? The Qin. Wang. Mansion gave a lot of money!"

"A literati shouldn't pay much attention to money, right?"

"That's on the premise that there is food, drink, and romance." Zhu Xi snorted slightly, and then smiled again: "Changting's temperament is really not suitable for the imperial examination, he should lead soldiers, but it is too hard to go to the battlefield , let’s become a feng shui master, and you can enter the Qin Tianjian in the future..."

Lu Changting nodded first, then shook his head: "No."

"Chang Ting thinks that Qin Tianjian is not good? Yes, with Chang Ting's ability, it is inevitable that he will not look down on Qin Tianjian!" Zhu Xi laughed.

Zhu Xi didn't say much else. In his opinion, the safest way is of course the imperial examination.With the favor of the prince and the emperor, and with him and the fourth child escorting him, can Changting still be smooth sailing?Then it's different to be a general.That has to go to the battlefield.Xiao Changting's skin is tender and tender... tsk tsk...

Lu Changting sighed: "I don't think I can pass the exam..." But it's normal to fail the exam.This examination of Jinshi is the same as that of Peking University and Tsinghua University in your later generations.Not to mention Peking University and Tsinghua University, how many people can't even get into an ordinary college.

He had so many back doors open that it didn't seem to help.

Zhu Xi didn't know how much excitement the matter of Concubine Li in the palace had brought to Lu Changting. In his opinion, Lu Changting was young and under the protection of their Zhu family brothers, what else could he worry about?Now that his face is exposed in front of the emperor, the future emperor will be very optimistic about him.There is really no need for Lu Changting to be so negative...

But what Lu Changting wanted was more than that. Being valued by the emperor is very good, but these are all false names. As long as he has no real power in his hands, he will always rely on others, and he will always be in a weak position.Others can accuse him of being someone's favorite, or look down on his status...

If it can...if it can reach Liu Bowen's level, that would be great.

But his knowledge is richer than his...

Thinking of this, Lu Changting temporarily dispelled the impetuousness in his heart, and learned to chant.Follow along first, learn as much as you can.That Liu Bowen was able to get the name of the reincarnation of Zhuge Wuhou, but he didn't get it by just looking at Feng Shui.

Lu Changting rubbed his belly: "I'm a little...not digestible."

"Come on, I'll take you to Mrs. Wang's residence."

Lu Changting was puzzled, what's so interesting about this?That fire didn't burn out?

Lu Changting followed Zhu Xi to the main hall where the Wang family lived. Because they were on guard, the fire was not severe.

"Can you see the traces of Feng Shui array?" Zhu Xi asked.

Lu Changting immediately understood that Zhu Xi was suspicious of Wang's death.But even if the burning is not serious, the original Feng Shui pattern has been completely destroyed.Lu Changting shook his head: "If it's burned a little, it's missing a corner, and it's hard to restore it completely. But what's left may be found."

"What's left?"

"If you want to use evil spirits to harm people, then there will naturally be evil spirits that have not dissipated immediately."

Zhu Xi sighed: "That's good, at least it can explain that Wang's death is indeed different."

In fact, he had suspected Wang's death for a long time, and now he just found out the corroborating evidence.Lu Changting walked around the hall, Zhu Xi and another guard were always at his side, worried that some broken wall would hit him or trip him.

It is not difficult for Lu Changting to catch the remaining evil spirit, he knows it by heart after walking around.

"The palace burned down, and the feng shui formation no longer exists, but the evil spirit is still there. Sure enough, there used to be a feng shui formation here. I didn't find anything wrong that day, so it should be the same method."

"But I didn't see Mrs. Wang saying hell before." Zhu Xi frowned.

"Bury paper figurines. Paper figurines are things that attract evil spirits. They will naturally become evil spirits. People will feel the wind gusts and think that ghosts are coming. But this does not necessarily put paper figurines. You said that when the princess enters the mansion Her body is a bit weak, and maybe someone is using this to kill her without anyone noticing." What's more, it can be said that Wang's death is a successful experiment for the White Lotus Sect.That's why they dared to continue to set up more Feng Shui formations...

Thinking about it this way, it is really a pity that Mrs. Wang died.

Zhu Xing also thought of this, but compared to the previous two days, Zhu Xing didn't express his emotions so obviously at this time, only the slightly reddened whites of his eyes showed how much he hated the White Lotus Sect.

Lu Changting searched around again, but still couldn't find what might be buried there.

No, not necessarily buried...

Maybe... Maybe there is no screen at all in the palace of the princess. Even if there is a screen, because the size of the residence is different, it is not the one that is naturally located on the seat of the five ghosts.Is... did the princess sleep in that position?Lu Changting briefly recalled it, and he can roughly confirm this guess.

"Let's go, go back."

Lu Changting nodded: "Second brother asked them to hire some ordinary people, not in the name of the Qin Wang Mansion."

"doing what?"

"Give a big gift to the White Lotus Sect." Lu Changting was really tired of the White Lotus Sect, if he could clean it up earlier, he would have avoided a lot of trouble in the future.This kind of organization is not only digging up Daming's country, but also inciting the mindless people to use them as shields.

Zhu Xi was overjoyed: "Of course there is no problem!"

In the following days, Lu Changting became busy, he didn't even ask what happened to Concubine Deng, and Zhu Shangbing's education was left to Zhu Xi to worry about.While solving the White Lotus Sect, he also had to learn from Zou Zhumo.Zou Zhumo is very strange, in addition to teaching Lu Changting the Four Books and Five Classics, the Law of the Great Ming Dynasty, and the imperial edicts, he always likes to ask Lu Changting some big questions.

What does it mean to have a large pattern?For example, if there are any measures in the Great Ming Law that are worth improving, such as the decline in the value of treasures, or the fact that the Ming Dynasty had many enemies, if you were asked to write a policy theory based on this, how would you analyze it...

Lu Changting once felt that Zou Zhumo used these questions to crush him to death because of his reckless answer that day...

At first, it was difficult for Lu Changting to adapt, and he couldn't even figure out why a person like Zou Zhumo, who cared about the important affairs of his family and country, didn't become an official.

Later, Lu Changting had no time to think about it.Because he suddenly remembered one thing from Zou Zhumo's almost difficult question.

He is a time traveler... No one knows Ming Dynasty better than him
