Chapter 1284 Small Crisis

"My lord just asked about you!" Lu Xingchi said with a cold face, "The most important thing right now is to guard against His Majesty's spies. If you fall behind at this juncture, can you imagine the consequences?"

As Lu Xingchi said, he looked Lu Xinghe up and down coldly: "You can be regarded as one of His Majesty's subordinates, so you're going to give His Majesty a message this time, right?"

Lu Xinghe picked out his ears, chuckled twice, and blew a sigh of relief at Lu Xingchi.

Intense booze.

He took off a wine gourd from his waist and handed it to Lu Xingchi: "The Zhuyeqing from Yecheng is just delicious. I've been thinking about it for so many years!"

"In the future, I can drink it every day, right?"

Lu Xingchi took two steps back, covered his nose and frowned, "I didn't take all your money away, and I didn't ask others to give you the money. Where did you get the money for drinking!"

"I asked people to borrow it on the street!" Lu Xinghe smiled freely, and said roughly what happened just now, and then stretched out his hand in front of Lu Xingchi, "I promised him that I will pay you back double!"

"Give me back my purse!"

Lu Xingchi's face was sullen: "Don't try to ask for money, I still don't know you! You took the money and went to drink again. Now is the time to do business, don't just think about the wine!"

"Besides, you didn't ask anyone you met on the street where they lived or what they did. Who did you give back the money to?"

Lu Xinghe said lazily: "If there is fate, we will meet, and if we meet, we will pay back!"

Lu Xingchi became more and more disbelieving, and the matter of the money bag was naturally left alone.

Lu Xinghe chased after him and yelled: "You are my clan brother, not my wife, why are you in charge of my purse, you give it back!"

However, Lu Xingchi walked very fast, without stopping at all!
Lu Xinghe could only sigh unhappily.

Then someone came forward, put his arm around his shoulder and smiled: "Brother Lu, do you want to marry a wife?"

"Think about it!" Lu Xinghe picked up the wine gourd on his waist, and knocked vigorously on his mouth.

Empty, nothing left!

He looked dejected: "I need to be rich. You know the situation of my family. Isn't this family property controlled by my stepmother? She will leave it to my unlucky brother. Where can I have money?" share!"

He winked: "If you know a girl who doesn't want a bride price, you might as well tell me. It doesn't have to be too nice, just be as good-looking as the girl from Chunhualou!"

The man punched Lu Xinghe on the chest: "Nowadays in the land of Yecheng, the village girls in the countryside all ask for a dowry gift of two taels of silver. You still want the girl in Chunhualou to be as good-looking, dream about it!"

Lu Xinghe sneered and stopped talking.

The man lowered his voice and said again: "However, it's not hopeless. When His Highness's great career is accomplished, there are so many beautiful maids in the palace. Which one do you like at that time? Just ask for it!"

Lu Xinghe's eyes lit up: "Yes, you still have an idea! But before that, you need to lend me some money to repay the debt!"

The man hurriedly covered the money bag: "That's not allowed, Chief Lu told me that whoever dares to lend you money will deduct a whole year's salary, please forgive me!"

Saying that, he ran away in a hurry.

Lu Xinghe stared at the back of him slipping away, the playful smile on his face faded, and changed into a dignified color.

For many years, the king of Shu has managed the land of Shu to be rich. These soldiers were born in Shu and grew up in Shu. They watched the sky from the well, thinking that the world is similar to Shu.

So I also dreamed this dream with the King of Shu.

He thought that Da Yue was just a larger Shu land, and thought that usurping the throne was like pretending to be a family.

They probably never thought about how this failure would happen.

I don't know what His Majesty is capable of today.

Lu Xinghe frowned tightly, shaking the flagon in his hand.

It is indeed empty!
I remember that when he first entered the land of Shu, in order to dispel the wariness of the King of Shu and his clan brothers, when he was indulging in wine and sex, half a catty of wine would be enough to make him forget everything.

Now that the two catties of bamboo leaves are green, he can still stand still.

Among other things, in the past few years in Sichuan, he has gotten better at drinking.

Lu Xingchi shook off Lu Xinghe's entanglement, and immediately went to see Wei Shang.

Wei Shang is looking at the map in the study.

That is the layout of the palace.

He grew up in the deep palace since he was a child, and he knows the layout of the palace like the back of his hand.

However, just to be on the safe side, he still found the old man who was released from the palace last year, and compared the picture in detail to make sure nothing went wrong.

There is one thing in their favor right now.

Now there are only the Empress and Concubine Liu in the harem, and many palace rooms are empty, and the defense is relatively lax on weekdays. If their people hide in it, it is not easy to be discovered.

He was marking carefully when Lu Xingchi knocked on the door and came in.

Wei Shang stopped what he was doing, looked up at him, and asked, "Is Lu Xinghe back?"

Lu Xingchi nodded: "Go back, he was caught in the street..."

As he spoke, he narrated what the two common people said and what Lu Xingchi did.

The doubts in Wei Shang's eyes dissipated a lot: "At this time, he can still tell the difference!"

Lu Xingchi smiled: "Your Highness has been kind to him for so many years, he remembers it in his heart!"

Wei Shang snorted: "Look at this king, deterrence is one aspect, he wants to take the opportunity to ask for some spare money to drink is the most important thing!"

Lu Xingchi was startled, and quickly knelt down: "It's my subordinate who missed the investigation, I must take care of this kid's habit of drinking!"

It turned out that the king of Shu knew about it a long time ago, but kept silent until Lu Xing came to report.

Fortunately, Lu Xingchi didn't tell lies, nor did he exaggerate. He just covered up the money bag, which made Wei Shang a little displeased, so he slapped him!

Wei Shang waved his hand: "Men are a little bit wrong, so they can show their true temperament. Love drinking and beauty, it's not a big deal, as long as there are no mistakes at critical moments!"

Lu Xingchi broke out in a cold sweat, and quickly replied, "Don't worry, Your Highness, he has his own priorities, and he can be relied upon for every major event!"

Wei Shang nodded and hummed.

If not, he would not have kept Lu Xinghe.

Taking a step back, Lu Xinghe has an old relationship with Wei Shu after all, although it is the kind of old acquaintance that is not very high-ranking, Wei Shang is still a little jealous.

If Lu Xinghe performed perfectly in all aspects, he would not dare to use it!
Just because he has these little problems, it is more reassuring.

The same is true for Lu Xingchi, this brother of the clan doesn't lose much to him in terms of martial arts and strategy, but he is greedy for drinking, lustful, and has no ambitions.

Push it to move it.

I have no sense of subjective struggle.

That's it!
In this way, he can become his right-hand man, without going over his head, and the king of Shu will not value him more than himself!
In the imperial study room, the news that Lu Xinghe passed on through Zhang Er had already reached Wei Shu's hands. He unfolded it and looked at it carefully, and handed it to Jiang Fei who was standing beside him.
