Manchu traitor, how can you let me be the emperor of the ages

Cai You stared dumbfounded at the situation in the courtyard, and almost tried his best not to let himself cry out.

Lu Bu was afraid that he would make a noise, so he didn't let him watch for too long, and quickly dragged him down again.

"Brother Lu...Brother Lu..."

Cai You, who returned to the bottom, still had his eyes staring straight, his forehead was sweating, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

shh~
Lu Bu first motioned him not to speak, then he pulled up the bamboo forest where he came from.

He didn't stop until he came to the shadow, away from the house, and the melodious voice in his ear gradually faded away.

During the whole process, Cai You didn't move at all, as if he was stupid.

It stands to reason that one of the women inside is his aunt, and Cai You usually keeps his head down and sees them up.

Every time we saw each other, Cai You treated each other with courtesy and called her Auntie, and they also respectfully called Cai You loud and dignified, and almost never violated the etiquette.

But Cai You never thought that there is such a side behind these normally dignified aunts and girls. This strong sense of contrast has made Cai You a little confused.

"Brother Cai?"

Seeing him staring blankly for a long time, Lu Bu couldn't help reminding him: "Are you alright?"

Cai You was shocked, and suddenly came back to his senses: "No... I'm fine!"

"It's just...just..." As he spoke, he looked at Lu Bu with strange and complicated eyes.

He never knew about this kind of secret in the Cai Mansion, and it was known by an outsider like Lu Bu, this...

Cai You hesitated to speak several times, but finally couldn't help asking: "Brother Lu, who are those men in there...?"

Although Cai You had no feelings for those aunts, they were his father's wives and concubines after all.

Looking at the current situation, Cai Jing's head is probably already frighteningly green...

Meeting his gaze, Lu Bu was still a little uncomfortable.

"It's full of passers-by..."

"Passers-by?"

Cai You was even more shocked. He thought these people were lovers, but passers-by... This simply exceeded the lower limit of his imagination.

"Brother Lu, what's going on?"

Lu Bu sighed, and explained: "A few days ago I was drunk in a restaurant and passed out. I got lost in the capital and came here by mistake."

Cai You frowned, how could he stray into such a high courtyard wall?
However, when he thought of Lu Bu's terrifying skill, he suppressed his doubts again. Perhaps the high wall that was insurmountable to normal people was nothing more than a small fence to him.

"Not here."

Lu Bu also seemed to see his doubts, and explained bluntly: "There is a low wall at another place, and these people probably came in from there."

Then he talked about the situation that day.

"I was so drunk for my brother that day, I strayed into this place by mistake, and when I woke up the next day, I was already sleeping on the street."

Lu Bu solemnly said: "At that time I only thought I was dreaming, but later when I passed by here, I unexpectedly found someone turned over from the low wall over there. I was curious and followed in, that's why I found out what happened today."

Cai You was dumbfounded while listening. …

These aunts of his are actually dragging drunks to have sex with them on the street... How is this different from those fireworks girls in the brothel?
"Brother Cai..."

There was a bit of guilt on Lu Bu's face: "I was also drunk that day, and I didn't know what I did at all, and maybe I did something I shouldn't do..."

Lu Bu said that it was all a drunken mistake.

Cai You forced a laugh: "It's okay, Brother Lu made an unintentional mistake, besides, anyway, they all...all..."

The implication is that you are not alone.

Lu Bu heaved a sigh of relief, and continued: "Brother Cai, since I found out what happened here that day, I have been quietly checking on it several times."

Facing Cai You's gaze, he hastily added: "I came here secretly to investigate, and no one else found out."

Cai You sighed tiredly, it means whatever you say.

Lu Bu said solemnly: "I found that some of these people outside came here by chance. After spending the night, they just thought it was a big dream and gradually forgot about this place. Some gradually became regular visitors here."

"And your... aunts come here by turns almost every day, almost without interruption."

Take turns here...

Cai You's eyes darkened, it turned out that not all the people he saw just now were there, and there were some who came in turn...

Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly asked: "Brother Lu, have you met here..."

In the middle of the speech, he stopped abruptly. I don't know what to think of, and his face gradually became gloomy.

Lu Bu didn't ask any further questions, but just let out a long sigh: "Brother Cai, ever since I found out about this house that day, I've been very conflicted, should I tell you about it?"

"After all, this matter is unusual. These women are also your elders. Even if you know about it, it may not be easy to deal with it."

This makes sense, this kind of matter can only be handled by Cai Jing himself, and Cai You is his son anyway, so it is not easy to participate in it.

Of course, Lu Bu has also imagined many strange plots, such as: Auntie, you don’t want my father to know about playing cards all night, right... It’s really cool to think about it.It's a little exciting.

It's just that no matter what Cai You does, Lu Bu probably won't be able to see it.

"Thank you Brother Lu for thinking about my younger brother."

Cai You forced a smile on his face: "Thank you Brother Lu for being honest and telling me about this matter."

"Ah~"

Lu Bu sighed a little disappointed and regretful: "Brother Cai, what are you going to do? Tell your father about this?"

Cai You's expression froze immediately, and he didn't say yes or no, but solemnly told Lu Bu: "Brother Lu, can I ask you something?"

Lu Bu patted his chest immediately: "But it's okay to say!"

Cai You smiled wryly, and said helplessly, "After all, this matter is a scandal in my younger brother's family. I hope Brother Lu will not tell others..."

"That's natural!"

Lu Bu's face immediately turned serious: "I'm not an unreasonable bastard. I don't need Brother Cai to tell me, and I won't reveal this matter."

"Since I entered here by mistake a few days ago, I have never disclosed this matter to outsiders!"

Before that, there is no guarantee.

Cai You breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: "Thank you, Brother Lu."...

Lu Bu looked at his expression and couldn't help but said: "However, there are many people here and there are many people coming and going. Even if I don't say it, it may be revealed by others. Brother Cai has to make preparations early."

Cai You shuddered and nodded, "I...understood, Brother Lu."

Seeing this, Lu Bu sighed: "Brother Cai, it's getting late, why don't we stop here for today."

"There will be a curfew in a while, so I'll go home first."

As for Cai You... this is his home.

Cai You nodded, with a bit of apology on his face: "I can't see you off today, I really neglected Brother Lu."

"Tomorrow at noon, my brother will hold a banquet in Huabao Building to make amends for Brother Lu."

Lu Bu was really surprised this time: "Actually..."

"Brother Lu, there is no need to shirk."

Cai You shook his head: "It's just a meal, it's nothing."

Lu Bu was silent for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, then see you tomorrow in Huabaolou."

After finishing speaking, he stopped talking, but turned around and entered the dark bamboo forest when he came.

Cai You watched his back silently until he could not see him at all, and the rustling sound of walking in the bamboo forest gradually faded away.

The moonlight shines through the bamboo forests on both sides of the path, shining mottledly on Cai You's face, reflecting his unusually complicated expression.

After standing for a long time, he took a long breath and walked towards the small courtyard by the lake just now.

On the other side, Lu Bu also came all the way to the courtyard wall.

After a Zongyue jumped onto the top of the wall, what was waiting for him outside the wall was an inconspicuous little carriage.

The strong man driving the car was startled by the sudden appearance of a black shadow on the wall at first, and he was taken aback for a moment before realizing that it was Lu Bu.

"grown ups."

Zhuge Liang was still sitting cross-legged in the carriage, shaking his feather fan and closing his eyes to rest his mind, but he also opened his eyes when he heard this, planning to open the door.

But at this moment, Lu Bu, who was standing on the wall, showed some hesitation on his face.

"grown ups?"

The coachman yelled again in doubt, wondering why he didn't hurry down and leave.

Zhuge Liang was also taken aback, and hurriedly poked his head out of the carriage, looking up.

Lu Bu stood on the top of the wall for a long time before heaving a long sigh. After all, he couldn't resist the curiosity in his heart.

"Go back first, and I'll go check it out."

As he spoke, he turned around and flew away without giving the two people below a chance to speak.

The coachman was dumbfounded for a moment, and just about to yell to stop him, Zhuge Liang stopped him.

"Since Mr. Lu told us to go, let's go first."

"But……"

The coachman hesitated.

"Master Lu is very capable, no matter where he is, nothing will happen to him."

Zhuge Liang shook his head, and said persuasively, "On the contrary, you and I have too big goals in the carriage."

"If he is discovered by the officers and soldiers who are watching the night later, wouldn't that hold him back?"

The coachman couldn't say no to him, so he raised his whip and drove away quietly...

The next day, it was still the elegant room of Huabao Building.

Lu Bu was invited again and pushed open the door of the elegant room.

crunch~
Cai You hurriedly stood up to greet him, and smiled and asked him to sit down.

"Brother Lu, thank you for your kindness."

After closing the door, Cai You first saluted him solemnly.

Lu Bu looked at him, the strangeness in his eyes flashed past, and then he lifted his shoulders: "Why do you and my brother do this?"...

"If Big Brother Lu didn't find out about this, my little brother would still be kept in the dark."

After Cai You got up, he took out a small wooden box from under the table and placed it on the table solemnly.

Lu Bu looked at his actions in puzzlement.

Cai You took out the key and opened the box, and the jewels inside were immediately released without reservation.

"This……"

Lu Bu was taken aback: "Brother Cai, you are..."

"These are my thanks to Big Brother Lu."

Cai You handed the box to Lu Bu, and said with some embarrassment, "At present, there are only these yellow and white things. I really don't want to neglect Brother Lu."

"No, I can't accept this."

Lu Bu immediately refused with righteousness and sternness: "Brother Cai, who do you think I am?"

"Could it be that I told you that just to seek your money?"

"Of course not!"

Cai You hastily explained: "Brother Lu, don't be angry, younger brother naturally knows that you are willing to remind me, it is entirely for the friendship between you and me."

"But since the little brother has received the favor of the big brother, he must show something, otherwise the little brother will have trouble sleeping and eating."

Lu Bu frowned and looked at him for a moment, and seemed to have changed, but finally shook his head decisively: "No, I can't accept this thing."

"As you said, I reminded you because of our brotherhood. If I accept this thing, it will make me sleepless!"

"This……"

Cai You was so moved that he even wanted to give him the box of gold and silver treasures. The two pushed each other for a long time before Lu Bu reluctantly accepted it.

"Ah~"

Lu Bu looked as if he had suffered a great loss, and looked at the box with disgust: "Brother Cai, if it wasn't for you, I would never have accepted these things!"

"Thank you Brother Lu, thank you Brother Lu..."

Obviously it was to send money to Lu Bu, but in the end he kept thanking him.

"Thank you, brother Lu, for giving me face."

Cai You was also very helpless: "It's not that my younger brother insists on giving this, but besides these things, there is really nothing else I can get."

"I'm just a prodigal son who inherited my father's shadow, and I'm even more lucky. With the favor of His Majesty, I'm lucky to be able to find a small official in the Ministry of War..."

Speaking of this, a bit of embarrassment appeared on his face: "Except for the little floating wealth, it is really a family, and I can't get anything out."

Lu Bu paused for a moment after hearing this, with regret appearing on his face.

After hesitating for a while, he still lowered his voice and said, "His Majesty actually knows about the news that you went to work in the Ministry of War."

"what?"

Cai You was taken aback for a moment, and then a look of urgency appeared on his face: "Your Majesty..."

"Your Majesty originally praised you as a down-to-earth person who is not impetuous, and thought of giving you a family background after a while..."

There was no excitement on Cai You's face, only nervousness.

originally……

It's a very subtle word, and it was there, but it might be gone now.

Cai You has never taken the imperial examination, and he thinks he has no such skills.

Although Cai Jing got him an errand in the Ministry of War, if this continues, his achievements in the future will not be very high, at most he will be a seventh-rank official, and if he goes higher, he will be criticized by others.

If you can't pass the Jinshi exam, you can only go some other ways, such as granting a Jinshi.

The top three in the palace examination are all of Jinshi background, but few people know that apart from those who pass the exam, outsiders can also be born as Jinshi.

And there is only one person in the whole world who has this power, and that is His Majesty the Emperor.

"Brother Lu..."

However, Lu Bu waved his hand and interrupted Cai You who was about to speak: "You also know that His Majesty cannot give you a Jinshi background out of thin air. You must ask your father to ask His Majesty first."

"My little brother knows."

Mentioning this, Cai You's face showed a bit of sadness.

It's not that he hasn't talked about it with Cai Jing, but he was flatly rejected every time.

"If it was last month, and your father told His Majesty, His Majesty must have agreed to you."

Lu Bu said with emotion: "But it can't work now!"
