Chapter 50 Cooperation
"Sister, this time I heard that someone suggested to the Queen to allow girls to participate in the Hero Festival Competition, so this time the female students of the Imperial College also organized four competitions in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Has Sister received the notice to participate in the competition? I heard that because this year is the first time a women's competition is held, the queen is worried that the number of applicants for the competition is too small, and the female students of the Imperial College must apply for at least one item."

On the way to Jingshan, the Lu family was riding a horse, and the housekeeper was behind in a carriage, carrying the necessary tents, clothes and other necessities.Each of these items is the experience gained from the experience and lessons of the Lu family participating in the Hero Festival over the years, such as waterproof boots, coir raincoats, and a complete set of dressing boxes.

Lu Weimang shook his head, "No one informed me. I'm not from a girls' school, so I shouldn't have to participate in those competitions... right?"

The atmosphere of this era is more open and civilized than Lu Weimang thought.I heard that the doctors of Yushitai, as long as they grabbed the emperor's pigtails, they could spend a whole day in front of the emperor, until the emperor deeply realized his mistake, and this matter would pass.

And the Queen.I heard that the empress and empress were young couples. When they were young, the empress was still pursued by the emperor, so the empress had a very good relationship. Except for a few concubines who were like decorations, in the harem, it was the empress's world.The queen quarreled with the emperor one day, and even started fighting.I heard that the emperor had people hang bead curtains in front of the dragon chair during those days when he was in court, so as to hide the nail scratches on his face.

Of course, privilege is the foundation of this era.

For example, the emperor's youngest daughter, Princess Jiazhen, because of her bad temper, beat and killed a maidservant, and after being nagged in front of the emperor by the imperial doctor for a day, the emperor fined the princess half of her food?Then the doctor Yushi was very satisfied with the call of gold to withdraw his troops, and praised the emperor for his wisdom.

In the minds of the people, different statuses and privileges such as power and status are taken for granted and taken for granted.

After more than ten years of fighting, the emperor conquered the world, and the world belongs to his family.The people of the world belong to the emperor too.

This is the cognition of the emperor, the cognition of all the officials, and even the people of the world think so.

Hundreds of officials killed the enemy in front of the battle, or were recommended as officials to benefit the local area, then they were born with a higher status than the common people and had the privileges of the official class.

This is also natural.

Only then did Lu Weimang realize that in this society, benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and filial piety are not just talk.It is the criterion for the emperor to rule the society, and everyone must abide by it, and the emperor is no exception.If there were no such constraints, wouldn't the royal family do whatever they wanted?

The law restrains the common people, and morality restrains privileges, including the royal family and dignitaries.

Living in this era, Lu Weimang feels free and cold at the same time.Because she has a high status, but not particularly high.So she was walking on thin ice in her heart.

Fortunately, although the emperor did not have much contact with him, all officials and common people said that the emperor was kind and kind.Although the queen doesn't have much contact, she is open-minded and good at accepting advice.

Just like this Hero Sacrifice Women's Competition.Although Lu Weimang didn't want to participate, but it was just a student's advice, and the queen agreed with kindness, which made Lu Weimang respect the queen even more in his heart.

At the foot of Jingshan Mountain, Lu Weimang, Father Lu, and Steward Chengyang Changfeng set up a tent together.

From time to time, noble people looked at the Lu family with strange eyes, and even the servants who were building tents like the Lu family looked at the nobles who were dressed in fine clothes but did these rough jobs in surprise.

But the Lu family didn't care.Subtly, the Lu family has been deeply influenced by Lu Weimang, some things can be done by the servants, and they can also be done by themselves.It's not to show off or show anything, it's because Lu Weimang likes to do interesting things by himself.

In Lu Weimang's eyes, setting up a tent once a year is an interesting thing. Why did she give this opportunity to the servants to do it, just for the so-called "decency" of the nobleman?
"One person grabs a corner and pushes hard together. Dad, you are holding on in the middle, we are going to push hard."

Lu Weimang held a corner of the tent in his hand and directed everyone.

"Understood, I can hold it here, hurry up!"

Father Lu was in the center of the tent, trying to hug the pillars supporting the tent, and shouted.

"Okay, here we go. One, two, three!"

The five of them worked together, and as Papa Lu put the middle column in place, Lu Weimang and the other four put the four corners of the tent in place.One of them picked up the hammer and wooden stick on the ground and began to nail the ground.

There are so many people and so much power. Seeing that a triangular tent is set up, everyone has a sense of accomplishment on their faces.

"Grandstanding!"

When you are happy, someone will spoil the fun.

A group of girls in fancy dress came over gracefully, speaking in a voice that everyone could hear.

"That's right. If you want to appear to be happy with the people and approachable, you should do enough tricks. Put on coarse clothes and do these rough jobs. Wearing silk and satin all over to do these jobs is too wasteful and extravagant. "

Lu Weimang and the others listened, looked at the clothes on their bodies, and scratched their heads a little.

"Housekeeper, do we have suitable clothes at home?"

Butler Lu thought for a while, "Our family doesn't have many servants, and the clothes for the guards are fine, but there are nothing else. Miss, do you want to buy some now?"

"Forget it, the clothes are already wrinkled, so don't worry about it. Hurry up and put up the rest of the tents, and I can change my clothes later and go out for some fun."

"Hey!"

The butler agreed, and the group walked to another tent material place, ready to set up a tent.

Lu Weimang has earned a lot of money these years, and his standard of living can't be said to be as exquisite as that of generations of high-ranking people, but the name of a local tyrant is unavoidable.Especially Lu Steward, the housekeeper, may have been very poor a few years ago, so he doesn't seek the best in everything, but the most expensive.

The sunshine in May is warm but not hot, and everyone is working in full swing, but it might as well be that the group of little girls didn't leave just now, and they were still making noise, "Look, they are all wearing clothes from Nishangge. It's dozens of taels. It turns out that the Lu family is so extravagant, we only know today."

"I don't know if it's because of a swollen face and pretending to be a fat man. The Lu family is only a fifth-rank general. Where did you get the money to buy clothes for the whole family? Don't you have another source? I heard that Mr. Lu did it in the yamen But the fat job of pensions for wounded soldiers, people like us, can’t compare~”

Lu Weimang sighed.I don't know what's the matter, their family lived quite peacefully in the past few years, but from this year onwards, people come here and find trouble everywhere.

Although my house is upright and I sit upright, but these flies are around every day, it's also annoying, isn't it?If you ignore her, she will keep buzzing in front of you, and if you ignore her, she will become more energetic.

Lu Weimang couldn't hold back the ferocity in his heart, so if he couldn't do it, he could beat them up himself, so as to save them from treating the tiger as a sick cat and coming over again and again to make trouble.

Lu Weimang made up his mind, listening to the chirping voices of these girls, he finally stopped being irritable. "Housekeeper, use more strength and push it up. I have something to do right now, and I'll come back when I'm done."

After speaking, Lu Weimang let go.

Now is the critical moment to set up the tent, Lu Qingshan is supporting the pillar in the middle with all his strength, Chengyang Changfeng and the housekeeper are standing on the four corners of the tent with the wood.Lu Weimang let go of his hand abruptly, putting pressure on the remaining few people, so they had to use all their strength to grab the wood in their hands.

"Sister, what are you doing?"

Cheng Yang knew Lu Weimang best, and as soon as Lu Weimang let go halfway, he felt that his sister seemed to be making a big move, so he hurriedly shouted.He knew that although his sister was very reliable on weekdays, she had a little flame in her heart and would do some slightly crazy things from time to time.

Lu Weimang pretended he didn't hear it, and glanced around, picked up the rope and the carpet from another tent material, tore the whole piece of carpet apart with his hands, and tore out a few pieces that were bigger than a handkerchief .

Here, Lu Weimang was tearing up the carpet, and everyone beside him couldn't figure it out, "Hey, Lu Weimang, what are you doing? Do you know how expensive a good Persian carpet is? Forget it in your tent at home, but also If you want to tear it up, it really is a cow chewing peonies. After all, it is from the countryside, and you can't become a nobleman if you use good things."

"Hey, Sister Chan'er, she can do whatever she wants. Miss Lu has always been different from us. Others go to girls' schools, but she chooses to go to boys' schools, so what if she is appointed by the Holy One? Will she not decline? In the final analysis, she wanted to go on her own, and she was unconventional all day long, but it was nothing more than sensationalism, so what if the Empress Empress left her alone last time, didn't she leak something in a short while, and the Empress Empress kicked her out?"

Lu Weimang's expression remained unchanged, but he just tore the carpet off his hands.He counted the ones in his hand again, "Well, there are five in total, that's enough."

The sarcastic girls beside her didn't know why, they looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering what kind of medicine was sold in Lu Weimang's gourd.

Only that Miss Chan'er, she vaguely felt that Lu Weimang's expressionless expression was very similar to her expressionless expression in Danqing Pavilion that year.

Instinctively, Zuo Chan'er started telling her to retreat, "Let's go, she is so boring, like a piece of wood, talking to her is just a waste of time."

A little girl was surprised, "Sister Chan'er, didn't you say that Lu Weimang is here, come here to teach her, and let her not be wild? Why didn't we say anything, but you retreated first?"

Someone on the side answered, "I heard that Chan'er was beaten by Lu Weimang, don't be timid, you are afraid of her?"

All the girls were chatting and laughing, cold sweat almost came down Zuo Chan'er's forehead.Although she is a bit mean, she knows it hurts.Back then, her hand had been hanging for three months.

"If you don't go, I'll go first."

After Zuo Chan'er finished speaking, she lifted her skirt and was about to leave, she glanced out of the corner of her eye, only to find that Lu Weimang was coming towards herself and the others with a rope and a cloth head.Suddenly screamed in panic, "You, don't come here!"

Lu Weimang would not hesitate to do things that he made up his mind to do. Seeing Zuo Chan'er holding up her skirt and trying to get away, he ran a few steps to her, without saying a word, twisted her arm and put it behind her back, Rope tied up.

Zuo Chan'er's personal servant girl stepped forward to stop her, her fist was light, Lu Weimang pushed it away with one hand, and went to grab another noble girl.

Seeing Lu Weimang rushing into the crowd like a tiger descending the mountain to catch people, everyone wanted to run away, but Lu Weimang would not allow them to escape easily, throwing them on the ground one by one with each hand, the gorgeous dresses of this group of noble girls are now complete I'm tired, I can't run and I can't get up.Lu Weimang was strung together with ropes, one at a time, and all five of them tied their hands behind their backs.

The maidservants of the five rushed over to beat Lu Weimang, and she also threw them to the ground one by one with one hand and one with each foot.

Three women in one play, five women and the maidservants screaming can make the sky loud, Lu Weimang took out the cloth torn from the carpet, and stuffed it into their mouths under the horrified eyes of everyone.

But fortunately there are some clever girls who ran to call someone when they saw something was wrong.

The position of Lu Weimang's family is not high, and the place where the tent is set up is relatively remote. When the maid called for someone to come over, Lu Weimang had already cleaned up a group of people. The guard came over and stopped, "What are you doing, stop!"

Lu Weimang stuffed the cloth head in, and stood up innocently with his hands up, "No reason, just trying to be clean."
