Husband is extremely regent

Chapter 84 Lu Xu Going Down the Mountain [One More]

The princesses of the six tribes of the Three Kingdoms issued a letter of challenge to Lu Xu at the same time.

In the Imperial Academy, Xuan Yuan, and the places where young men and women live together, everyone is discussing: one against nine, what are the chances of Miss Lu Xu's victory.

After a period of fermentation, there was a wave of enthusiasm throughout the country. The underground gambling houses had already set up a gamble. Not only the Nanli Kingdom, but also people from the six tribes of the Three Kingdoms all placed bets to see who could win the game.

Because it is one against nine, there are many gambling methods:

Big gamble: buy the winners and losers of the Six Tribes of the Three Kingdoms and Lu Xu;

Small gamble: the win or lose between the nine princesses and Lu Xu;
Betting on the number of wins and losses: bet on how many games the nine princesses and Lu Xu can win and how many games they can lose.

The gamblers, from ordinary people to aristocratic families, and finally court officials and even the royal family, all secretly placed their bets.

Needless to say, Lu Yi would naturally spend money to support his daughter, and he also believed that her daughter would win. The uncles did not hesitate, no matter what the content of the challenge was, they would buy their niece to win.

Jingdu placed the bet vigorously, while Lu Xu quietly completed the second exorcism of cold poison.

Shangguan Shouruo counted the time and sighed: "The third time is too late, you should go back and prepare well. Mother is betting all the betrothal gifts for marrying a daughter-in-law in the future."

"What bet?" Lu Xu asked puzzled.

"Since you don't know anything?"

Shangguan Shouruo quickly explained: "Lu Xiang also made a bet, and you will know the consequences if you dare to lose."

Only then did Lu Xu know that a village had been set up for her challenge with the nine princesses, so he hurriedly urged Suzaku and Jade Bird: "Pack up your things and go home before you have time to place your bets."

Fanxing glanced coldly at Shangguan Shouruo...

Shangguan Shouruo's neck felt cold, and he asked at the top of his voice, "Lu Xu, do you want to help?"

"roll!"

After some tidying up, we started to descend the mountain after half an hour.

When going up the mountain, Fanxing used lightness skills to walk, but when going down the mountain, Lu Xu insisted on walking by himself.

It turned out that the scenery in the villa was the best, and she never wanted to walk on the mountain path, the scenery she saw was the most pleasing to the eye.

Lu Xu walked in front, and Fan Xing followed behind with his hands behind his back. Seeing her commanding the two girls to pick wild flowers and mushrooms from time to time, he regretted not taking her out for a walk before.

"Xu'er, next time you come, I'll take you to the back mountain." Fanxing caught up with Lu Xu and said, "The back mountain is shaded, and there are more mushrooms there, so it's more interesting to pick them yourself. There is also a small stream at the foot of the mountain. fishing there."

"Okay."

Lu Xu agreed without thinking.

There are not many places in Kyoto where she can be free, and Aoyama is not bad.

Fan Xing didn't expect her to be so straightforward, and he couldn't help showing a smile on his face, seeing Shangguan Shouruo almost stepped on the wrong foot and rolled down the stone steps.

They didn't expect that the moment Lu Xu walked down the stone steps, the news of Lu Xu's descent spread all over the capital, just to see the incense car of the number one beauty in Nanliguo, and everyone went to the only way she had to go back home.

Bai Ying was on the verge of crying, the delegation from the Three Kingdoms and Six Tribes was already too busy to touch the ground.

Now that Lu Xu was going down the mountain, he had to deploy manpower to maintain order, so as not to discover the stampede, and he was so busy that he didn't even have time to eat.

Fan Chen and Gao Liao didn't bother to go anywhere. As soon as they heard that Lu Xu was going down the mountain, they quickly sent government servants to help. Before they knew it, they thought it was an invasion from foreign enemies. Dali Temple, Shuntian Mansion, and Patrol Palace all went out to defend the capital.

"What a big stage."

Princess Qingmi (mi) of the Kingdom of Jin stood in the private room, watching the crowd swarming below and ridiculing.

Qing Mo said lightly: "Although there are many beauties in the world, only Lu Xu from Nanli Country can cause such a big sensation."

"It's pushy."

"No."

"It is said that she made her first public appearance when she was a child, so the scene can be seen often."

Qing Mo squeezed the gold wine and said: "Three years ago, she was demoted to Liangzhou with her father. Liangzhou refused to marry for three years. Everyone was waiting for her to grow up. In the end, Emperor Nanli issued an imperial decree to recall Lu Yi back to the capital. , Those young princes in Liangzhou were heartbroken and sent them off one after another."

"A mere little girl..." Qing Mi was very disdainful: "Students, clowns."

"Keep your voice down." Qing Moxuan smiled wildly and said, "If Lu Xu's followers hear it, they will fight you desperately."

Qingmi snorted coldly: "Unfortunately, he is a short-lived ghost."

"Short-lived ghosts are also ghosts that have no choice but to live." Qing Mo said with a perverse smile on his face, "Although you are a princess, you may not be as noble as her."

"I know, Lu Yi's only Miao Miao, Nanli Prince's companion, Nanli's number one beauty..." Qing Mi counted Lu Xu's names in detail.

"Emperor Nanli doesn't have a princess, the princesses of the imperial family are not outstanding, and the daughter of Prime Minister Liu Ji of the left is not on the stage. Lu Xu is the face of Nanli Kingdom."

"You should now understand the meaning of challenging her..."

"Sister Chen understands."

They want to join hands to slap Nan Liguo in the face...

Qing Mo drank Juezhong fine wine: "It used to be here... belonged to our Qing royal family."

The Mo family is just the courtiers of the Qing royal family, even if they can't take back the country now, he will also destroy the Mo family's arrogance for the Qing royal family.

"Miss Lu Xu's carriage is here..."

Someone on the street yelled passionately, and the whole street suddenly boiled.

Qingmi turned her head to look out the window, she leaned forward a little, a carriage with lanterns from the Lu Manor, pulled by two white horses, slowly came into view.

"Miss Lu Xu..."

The young scholars shouted loudly without any scruples, and their passion could overflow the street.

Ordinary people wanted to see the beauties, and there was a turbulent discussion for a while. Fortunately, there were people from Dali Temple, Shuntian Mansion and the patrol camp to maintain order.

Because there are too many people, it is difficult for chariots and horses to move forward.

Lu Xu was a little worried. If it dragged on, it would not only be a stampede, but an assassination.

At this moment, a loud voice came from the sky: "The emperor has ordered that Miss Lu Xu will openly accept the challenge of the nine princesses in the martial arts arena on the first day of the eighth day. Please don't block her way back to the house, so as not to affect her." The challenge of the first day of August."

Then a group of Imperial Forest Army came to the carriage, and the leader got off the horse and said, "Miss Lu Xu, this general is escorting you back to the residence according to the emperor's order."

"There is General Lao Liang!"

Lu Xu's ethereal and indifferent voice blew past everyone's ears like fluffy feathers.

This voice can't be said to be very pleasant, but it is faint and curling, the lingering sound is faint, long and endless, the meaning of Zen rhyme makes people forget the world and abandon the world.

But even if there was a will and the crowd still refused to leave, Lu Xu glanced at Fan Xing and said, "Lu Xu is weak, I hope you can find a way, so that Lu Xu can return to the residence in time to rest, so as not to affect the meeting with you on the first day of August. "

"Everyone, please make room for Miss Lu Xu to return home."

As soon as General Liang spoke, it was like a relay in front of him, one person after another passed the message for him.

Finally, a passage was opened in front, and the carriage, led by General Liang, drove towards the Lu Mansion at a moderate pace, with a long team still following behind.

The place where Lu Xu's carriage passed was also constantly shouting. The original one-hour journey still took half an hour longer. Many people chased outside the gate of Lu Mansion, but they only saw Lu Xu's graceful and elegant back.

Go back to Shangsu Garden.

Lu Xu breathed a sigh of relief and sat in the rocking chair to rest.

Fan Xing sat down and looked at her and said, "You were worried that I would be assassinated, so you talked to everyone."

"It's still human."

The voice is lazy and charming.

Fan Xing said lightly: "You know, I don't need you to pay it back."

"Whether you need it or not is your business, and it's still my business."

Lu Xu's voice at this time was deep and melodious, it seemed extremely lazy and coquettish, who in the world could resist it.

"You look like this..."

Fanxing secretly took a breath and said, "I will be reluctant to leave."

Lu Xu looked at him and said, "I've been entertained by you for a few days, if you don't mind, then stay and have a light meal before leaving."

"What about me?" Shangguan Shouruo was unwilling to be ignored.

"I'll ask Crested Ibis to make eight-treasure duck for you, or you can order one yourself."

"Can I order another steamed sea bass?" Shangguan Shouruo looked at Fanxing and said, "I have a lighter taste, so steamed sea bass is more suitable."

"No problem." Lu Xu looked at Fan Xing: "Sir, do you want to order one for yourself?"

"I don't have any requirements, I will eat whatever you eat." Fanxing replied with a smile, but in fact he wanted to find out Lu Xu's preferences.

Lu Xun said in a low voice: "Suzaku, let Zhu Xi prepare according to the specifications of the family banquet. Except for the two dishes ordered by Mr. Shangguan, the rest will be arranged according to my daily preferences."

Shangguan Shouruo found a seat and sat down: "Today is 27. You still have three days to spare. If you need anything, ask the prince quickly. Don't rush to find the capital all the time. The impact is more than the result of the challenge. My mother may Will hang himself."

"Your mother hanged herself, what does it matter to me?"

"In order to buy you to win, she took all of my sister's dowry."

Lu Xu was also speechless, and said flatly, "I don't need anything, I just want to have a good rest."

"With one against nine, I am confident that I can win." Shangguan Shouruo sat over and said, "Let's not talk about challenges, you may not be able to persevere until the end just because of your physical strength."

"Smart people only use their brains, so it doesn't take much effort for me." Lu Xu thought for a while and said, "I'm just curious. The missions from the six tribes of the Three Kingdoms came to Nanli together, and they didn't just want to challenge me."

There has been no war in the border towns recently, and when the Trade and Tariff Agreement has not been revised, there is no proper reason to think about it.

"Why do you think it won't be for you?" Fan Xing looked at Lu Xu, she was worth everything.

"I'm self-confident, but not narcissistic." Lu Xu said lazily, "This lady, a beauty, is not worth the country."

"As soon as the challenge is over, we have to start over."

"Our work?"

"Your job?"

Fanxing and Shangguan Shouruo spoke at the same time.

Lu Xu looked at Fan Xing and said, "Sir, you won't forget what Master Wu has entrusted to us."

"You have been ill all the time, Master Wu won't mind." Fanxing looked at Lu Xu, his complexion was still pale, and the effect of the two detoxification was not obvious.

"Being in the hands of others is the end of human affairs." Lu Xu looked at the setting sun in the sky: "I, Lu Xu, do things, or I don't do them. If I do something, I must do it to the extreme, and no one can pick out any flaws."

"On the first day of August, I not only want to win, but also win beautifully."

"I believe you." Fanxing picked up the tea and handed a glass of water to Lu Xu: "You use tea instead of wine, I wish you success."

"Thank you!"

Lu Xu took the cup and took a sip.

Shangguan Shouruo said: "You don't know what they are challenging, are you too optimistic?"

"The content is not important, what matters is the rules of the game." Lu Xu spun the cup and said, "The one who understands the rules of the game can play till the end."

"game rules……"

Fanxing suddenly laughed, ordinary people play games, smart people play by rules.

Shangguan Shouruo looked at Lu Xu, and then at Fanxing: "You two really have that flavor when you sing together."

"Which smell?" Fanxing looked at Shangguan Shouruo.

"Couple taste."

Winning Brahma's heart, in exchange for Lu Xu's supercilious look.

At about the same time, when Lu Yi returned home, the first thing he did was to see his daughter.

"Daughter pays respects to Daddy, and wishes Daddy all the best!"

After he had met with Fanxing and Shangguan Shouruo, Lu Xu got up and asked An to salute politely.

Sitting down with his father on his arm, he said, "Daddy, my daughter is in charge. Mr. Liu Fan and Mr. Shangguan have dinner, thank them for taking care of my daughter these days, and you have a drink too."

"Xu'er, come here and let Dad take a look."

Father and daughter have never been apart for so long since their daughter was born.

Leaving Shangsu Garden suddenly made her less angry, Lu Yi missed her daughter in her heart, but she couldn't resist not going to Longyin Villa.

Suzaku brought tea on a tray, and Lu Xu delivered it to his father himself: "Daddy, you drink tea...the best jade snow mountain green tip, I specially asked someone to buy it from Lingnan, you can taste it."

"Nothing to be courteous..."

Lu Yi understands her daughter well, and she can't serve good tea for nothing.

"There is no rape or theft." Lu Xu quickly explained: "My daughter just wants to know, why are the missions from the six tribes of the Three Kingdoms here?"

Lu Yi took a sip of the tea, pondered it a bit before saying leisurely, "The emperor has been on the throne for more than a year, and it also coincides with the Empress Dowager's [-]th birthday. The six tribes of the Three Kingdoms naturally sent missions to congratulate him. What's so strange?"

"Why do they come to congratulate when they come to congratulate, why give the daughter a challenge letter."

"I'm worried that the state banquet will be too boring." Shangguan Shouruo is a frequent guest of the state banquet, and the whole process can be said to be very boring.

Lu Xu thought about it and said, "It seems that since the emperor came to the throne, the empress has not organized a state banquet. I wonder if this year will be more interesting."

"It will be fun if you go."

"too tired……"

Lu Xu immediately said that she couldn't bear it physically.

"Xu'er, I'm afraid I won't be able to avoid it this time." Lu Yi looked at his daughter in embarrassment: "The emperor said that you have to attend even if you are lying down."

"Too inhuman..."

"Cough cough..."

Before Lu Xu started to complain, he was interrupted by his father.

Knowing that her daughter doesn't like banquets, but as the right minister's daughter, there are some things she can't avoid.

"Whether it's the first state banquet held by the emperor since he ascended the throne, or the empress do it herself, you have to take this face into consideration." Lu Yi tried hard to convince his daughter.

"State banquets and palace banquets are different from ordinary government banquets. Although the rules restrain you, they also restrain others." Fan Xing put down his tea and comforted Lu Xu: "Breaking rules at state banquets and palace banquets will be severely punished, and if it is serious, it will also affect the family. , you don’t have to worry about them pestering you.”

"Jing Ze is right."

Lu Yi immediately agreed, thinking that Fanxing would be by her daughter's side the best.

Jingze!Is it too intimate?
