Martial arts immortality, I will eventually be invincible

"He is arrogant and proud of his talent, and he has no dust in his eyes. This is Yu Zhaoan before he went to the imperial prison."

Chen Guanlou almost slipped up and said Yu Zhaoan before his broken leg. Fortunately, he was smart and changed his words to before he went to the imperial prison.

Talking about broken legs in front of a cripple is suspected of exposing scars.

The master hummed and glanced at Chen Guanlou meaningfully, "From what you said, Yu Zhaoan has changed after returning to the prison."

"A lot of changes! He is willing to put down his status and bend and stretch. It can be seen that he has let go of his reputation in the past. He wants more tangible benefits."

"It's almost the same as I guessed."

The master thought for a moment and asked again:

"Did he say what he was going to do specifically?"

"He said he wanted to please His Majesty and even replace Jiang Tu. He believes that those who do great things should not be fussy about trivial matters." Chen Guanlou said slowly.

The master laughed when he heard this.

"It's good to be informal!" He seemed to have thought of something interesting, and suddenly asked after a moment: "I heard that Yu Zhaoan thinks highly of you. His career is going smoothly now. Are you willing to work for him?"

Huh?

Chen Guanlou was surprised. Was this a test, or did the master originally plan to do this?

He pondered for a moment and decided to tell the truth, "Reporting to the master, my nephew is doing well in the Tianlao now."

"You don't want to work for him, but what are your concerns?" The master asked curiously.

Chen Guanlou thought about it and simply said: "Yu Zhaoan is not an easy person to get along with. My nephew just wants to be free and doesn't want to be controlled by others."

"Oh!" The master looked at Chen Guanlou twice more, "It seems that you are really like a fish in water in the Tianlao. Don't force this matter, don't take it to heart."

After that, he picked up the teacup.

Chen Guanlou left tactfully.

In the study, the butler looked at the master and listened to his instructions.

The eldest master put down the teacup and said slowly: "Since Yu Zhaoan wants to go to the northwest to take charge of civil affairs, we can help him."

"Ah?" The butler was very surprised, "Yu Zhaoan will not give up power, and his style of doing things has always been tough."

"It is necessary to have someone like him to stimulate the northwest. The ground is too hard and has condensed into a ball. A sharp hoe is needed to dig the ground."

"Aren't you worried that he will become an obstacle, my lord?"

"I am not afraid that he will become an obstacle, and I even hope that he will become an obstacle. In addition to Jiangtu, the court needs a target, an indestructible target. Yu Zhaoan is very suitable. I believe that he himself has this awareness. If he wants benefits, give him benefits. I am very curious about how far he can go."

The eldest master laughed, a real old fox.

After Chen Guanlou left the marquis' mansion, he went to find Master Du to drink.

Since the civil unrest in Dongzhou, the clan school has opened. Master Du is very satisfied with teaching every day, and he feels at ease that he has not eaten for nothing.

As soon as the two met, Chen Guanlou took the initiative to talk about the meeting without waiting for the other party to ask, "The master asked me about Yu Zhaoan's situation. Yu Zhaoan seems to be very popular recently!"

"That's it?"

"Yes, that's it. I came out after chatting for a few words. I feel that the master already has the answer, and he just asked me to confirm it."

"Why does the master care about Yu Zhaoan?"

"I don't know. I guess it has something to do with the rebellion in Jinping and Jinzhou. We small people are late to know about the things in the court, and we can only be hindsight. The master is at the center, so he must have inside information."

Chen Guanlou invited Master Du to drink together and talked about the recent bad business. The prisoners in Tianlao either have no shortage of money, or have been forgotten by the higher-ups and don't need to spend money to manage them for the time being, or they are poor officials in Beijing. Chen Guanlou's antique calligraphy and painting business has been interrupted for a long time.

I met Manager Li of Sitong a while ago. The other party seemed to be getting up again and wanted to do the business of stealing the treasures of the palace. Of course, the other person said it very implicitly, so he couldn't report it to the police and let Qi Wuxiu and Jinyiwei deal with the other party.

Fortunately, he and Master Du both have the habit of saving money, so they are not short of money for the time being.

A rich guest like Liu Daowen is hard to come by!

After drinking, he went home in the autumn wind.

As soon as he got home, he saw a two-person sedan parked at the gate of Chen Ergou's house opposite. A little woman got off the sedan, her figure was weak, and she walked into Chen Ergou's yard with the help of a little maid.

Boss Qu, a cloth merchant, still rented Chen Ergou's yard. Could this little woman come to buy cloth?

Two days later, he heard that there was a woman next to Boss Qu. Boss Qu seemed to be planning to have a wine party and introduce the woman next to him to the neighbors.

Chen Guanlou was curious and ran to Chunxiang's house to eat a noodle. He asked about the situation on the other side, "Is Boss Qu planning to take a concubine?"

Could it be the little woman that day?

Chunxiang's news was indeed well-informed, "I asked, Boss Qu's country wife died a few years ago, and he has never had a decent woman around him. This time, he is planning to remarry, not take a concubine."

"Ah? Since it's a remarriage, they live together before the official wedding?"

Is it so unrefined these days?

"The woman's situation is a bit special, it seems that..." Chunxiang hesitated for a while before saying, "I heard that she is the family of a criminal official."

Huh?

He is familiar with this!

Chen Guanlou asked, "Tell me the details."

"I don't know. As the saying goes, family scandals should not be publicized. People keep secrets. I can't break the casserole and ask the truth. Neighbors will have to interact with each other in the future, so it's not easy to be so direct. Boss Qu is a very nice person. His business is so big, and there are many people around him. He needs a woman to take care of him. There were matchmakers for him in the past, but he didn’t like any of them. Unexpectedly, he finally fell in love with a family member of a prison official, who was so beautiful that he took away Boss Qu’s soul. "

Chen Guanlou recalled that figure from the back. In terms of the figure alone, she was indeed a beauty. I just don’t know if the front is worthy of such a beautiful back.

"Whenever the wine is served, I'll ask for a drink if I have time."

"I'm asking someone to check the date. I think there will be news in two days."

"That's good."

On the day when Boss Qu served the wine, something happened in Tianlao, so Chen Guanlou didn't get to drink the wedding wine. One prisoner suffered from vomiting and diarrhea, suspected of food poisoning, and everyone in the prison felt like they were facing a formidable enemy. After a long investigation, it turned out that the prisoner couldn't figure it out and wanted to commit suicide.

By the time he got home, the banquet opposite had already ended.

Although it was a pity that Boss Qu's wife was not seen, he also had good news. The third chapter of "The Record of Ascension" has been cultivated to the later stage of Dzogchen. It was very smooth and silky, and I entered the fourth chapter without any obstacles.

Suddenly, the big knife in my hand felt a little redundant. The understanding of sword skills has reached a new level. There is no knife in the hand, but there is a knife in the heart. Truly, everything can be a knife, and there are knives everywhere in the flying flowers and fallen leaves.
