Feelings of Heaven and Earth(47)

Lu Qilang signed up and left. The assessment will take some time.

The Sixth Prince looked at the other party's leaving figure and waved to Xiao Shizi to come to him, "What about you, you will leave for Lu Qilang's house in an hour, bring a four-color gift box with you, be respectful, and say that you know Lu Qilang is very good at regular script.

, I want to beg him to write me a copybook for copying purposes."

Xiao Shizi looked outside and could still see Lu Qilang's back, "Otherwise, I would have called Lu Qilang for you right now."

The Sixth Prince raised his hand and patted Xiao Shizi on the head, "Forget it, you're so stupid! How can I tell you what to do? Why is there such nonsense?"

Xiao Shizi touched his head and smiled naively, not daring to reply.

"By the way..." The Sixth Prince remembered, "Don't bring the tea leaves in the gift box, replace them with good old herbs... Also, replace the silver ingots with gold ingots..."

Xiao Shizi didn't dare to ask any more questions, and turned around and went back to do his errands.

Lu Qilang had just had a meal after returning home. He was about to go out to the temple when a guest came to his door.

He thought it was another girl from a merchant family who came to his door, but it turned out to be a eunuch from the palace. Looking again, hadn't he just met him before? He only stiffened for a moment, then hurriedly handed over his hand, "I have seen my father-in-law, please bring me to justice."

Have a cup of tea."

Xiao Shizi sighed inwardly. In the past, no one from an aristocratic family would take a second look at a family like his. With a family of aristocratic status, a palace official like himself could not easily enter the main hall.

Thinking of His Highness's instructions, he hurriedly returned the gift, saying that he did not dare. He first explained the reason, and then offered the gift, "Your Highness said that you were leaving, and he remembered that he had something to ask for. We are old acquaintances of you, and it was just a word.

I forgot all about the entrustment. Then I sent my servants, firstly, to say hello to Mr. Lu; secondly, to send a message to Mr. Lang about entrusting me with this matter."

Lu Qilang was stunned for a moment, then agreed with a smile, "It's not worth anything. I'll send it to His Highness another day."

Pebbles did not stay and left directly.

Lu Qilang was sent to the door in shock. He watched the other person walk away, and then turned around and walked back. When he turned around, he saw someone looking at him at the door, and then he smiled flatteringly at him.

.

Before, she wished she could hide away from her, but now because of the entrance of a palace official, she turned around and became polite.

Lu Qilang glanced in the direction of the alley entrance, feeling hard to describe.

When I came back, I saw that my mother had already opened the gift box, and then frowned slightly, "Qilang, this is too expensive."

This is not an ordinary four-color gift.

There is no tea, but medicinal materials! This is because I know that there are patients in the family who take medicine all year round and cannot drink tea, so I did not use tea and replaced it with the above good medicinal materials.

Then there are good pens and ink. People who are good at reading and practicing calligraphy will really feel that everything is not smooth without these two things.

There are also two gold ingots worth ten taels, which would be worth two hundred taels if converted into silver.

Mother Lu looked at her son, "What... should we do?"

Just when Lu Qilang was about to speak, Lu Fangxing called from inside, "Qilang."

"My son is here!"

Lu Qilang went in and helped Lu Fangxing stand up, "Here you are."

Mother Lu brought the gift box in and said, "Ms. sir, isn't this good?"

Lu Fangxing glanced at him, turned his face and said to Qi Lang, "... Qi Lang, the affairs of the aristocratic family and the Lu family have nothing to do with you! Now, there is no longer aristocratic family, and there is no longer the Fanyang Lu family... Your father is just a common man from a poor family.

A small household, a flawed family... all I expect from you is to settle down and live your life! If you want to settle down, you must be a good person; if you want to live, you must do your duty. You must remember this!"

My son remembered, "Everyone respects me an inch, and I respect others an inch! Don't be too ambitious if you are down-to-earth... Don't worry, father."

Only then did Lu Fangxing smile, slowly lie down, and gradually his breathing became steady.

Then it went very smoothly, and Lu Qilang passed the exam to become a translator.

Since the translators would be sent to the Liao Kingdom in the future, most of them were born as clerks and lacked etiquette. After being hired, they would receive a salary, but they also had to learn etiquette from the Ministry of Rites.

The fourth master and the eldest prince came out to take a look and saw Lu Qilang, who stood out among a group of people.

The eldest prince was surprised, but did not bother him. It could be seen that the others were learning how to straighten their backs and not bow their heads frequently. But Lu Qilang was learning how to look more humble.

The two of them walked around, and the eldest prince and the fourth master discussed who to take with them and who not to take with them. According to the eldest prince's plan, Tongtong was not to be taken with him.

The Fourth Master laughed and said, "Get ready, she will definitely go." It just depends on how to convince Link to use it.

How to convince?

As soon as Link came back, Lin Yutong pestered him, "Dad, it makes sense for me to go."

I don't ask you to go, I have my own reasons. Link came out of the bath wearing a wide robe and wide sleeves, leaning on the couch holding a book, looking like a lazy beauty.

Lin Yutong went over and put his hand on his shoulder, "I'll tell you my truth first. You can think about it and then look at it."

It's your business whether you want to say it or not. It's my business whether you think about it or not. Link pointed to the left and said, "Be gentle here."

Okay! Be gentle. Lin Yutong said while massaging: "Who has the most friction with the Khitan? The long border line along the northwest, all year round, the Khitan is actually at odds with the Lin family. So tell me, should the Lin family?

Should you directly participate in this trip? If you kept your brother at home as your heir that day, then it would be appropriate for him to go this time. But isn't this your release? Who else in our family can go except me? From the northwest

Call an uncle back? Or which brother comes back? You know, this is not possible! They have a sense of distance from the princes and princesses in the palace! This cannot be cultivated. It is not wrong to have a sense of distance, but in Liao

The country makes people feel a sense of distance, which is wrong."

Link paused with the hand that was turning the pages of the book, and then turned over it calmly, "It is precisely because of the closeness that the Lin family doesn't care whether they go or not. The imperial court can be the master of the northwest, why does the Lin family have to leave? The latter words make sense, but the premise is not

Yes, no matter how sufficient the arguments are, they are just sophistry."

Lin Yutong squatted next to him again and gently tapped his legs, "Besides, the Queen of Khitan has extraordinary say in Khitan..."

As long as the Great Khan is alive, she will be a queen. She can influence the Great Khan, but only influence.

"Emperor Taizu would rather see the women of the younger generation participate more in affairs."

You are not allowed to participate! What kind of errands do you want to go to the palace to ask your uncle to go to? You don’t like Da Chen’s many errands, so you have to run out? "Take care of your body first, and when your body is well taken care of, I will be satisfied.

Now, you are allowed to go out and play." Lin Yutong: "..." It doesn't make sense!

She stood up quickly, startling Link Yong, "Be good! It's not as comfortable as at home on the road, so be obedient."

Lin Yutong raised his arms and wiped his eyes with his sleeves. As soon as he wiped them, the tears fell down. Then he stood there motionless, tears falling down. Lin Ke said: "...

"This is too scary! He stood up at a loss, knelt down and looked up again. He was really crying! He raised his hand to pick it up, and his palms were wet with tears. He scratched his head, why was he crying?

What? My daughter looks very delicate, but she is actually a child who doesn’t cry much.

As a result, I stopped talking and just stayed here silently weeping.

How to do it?

He looked at Lin Kuan: I haven't coaxed her before. How did you coax her when she was a child? Hurry up and coax her.

Lin Kuan stepped back. When he was a kid, he gave me candy and rice cakes, but now he just gives me whatever I want.

Lin Keyong also asked, "Do you want to ask the Lord Yiyun County to come?"

Why are you inviting me?

Lin Kuan quickly said, "Princess, just tell me what you want, and Uncle Kuan will find it for you."

"I'm going! I'm going."

Lin Kuan spread his hands: She is going! She will cry if she is not asked to go! It is up to you whether you want to go or not. Link said: "... Go! Isn't it enough to go? Go!"

real?

real!

Tongtong wiped her tears with a handkerchief. If she had told her to go away, wouldn't it be over? Look at me crying.

Sure enough, I stopped crying as soon as I wiped it, then turned around and left.

Link looked at his daughter's back and wiped the sweat from his head. In this cold weather, he was sweating all over! He sighed, "I knew the girl was so troublesome! Why do you think it's so difficult?

Are you going? Is there anything wrong with getting what you want at home? You have to go out and do the hard work."

Lin Kuan couldn't hold it back and complained in a low voice: "There is no beautiful husband in the family."

Um?

Link turned around and looked at Lin Kuan: "What did you just say?"

Lin Kuan was stunned for a moment, then quickly waved his hand, "I didn't say anything... that... the palace sent tangerines, I will order them to be sent to the princess..."

"No! I'm not deaf. What did you say about the beautiful husband..." Lin Ke stopped Lin Kuan with his words, "I have to make it clear. During this Chinese New Year, she is already a fifteen-year-old girl... After she gets hairpins, this marriage will

Don’t mention it?”

Lin Kuan wished he could slap himself in the mouth, but he was forced to do nothing, so he said: "I heard that Qi Lang of the Lu family has become an interpreter and is going to Khitan."

Qilang Lujia? Who is it?

"A man with a jade face, he is quite handsome. The princess once praised the seventh man of the Lu family for being worthy of a reward!"

Jade face? Handsome? Rewardable?

Link turned around and stood in front of the mirror, looked around and then asked Lin Kuan: "How does your husband compare with the seventh son of the Lu family?"

Lin Kuan took a closer look and said, "How can Lu Qilang be as handsome as Mr. Lang?"
