Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 251 Taifu Lou returns in disgrace and summons Lou Ben

Seeing the smile on her husband's face, Wang Yanji felt happy in her heart. As long as her husband could be well, she could do anything for her.

For some reason, Wang Yanji couldn't help but think of what happened today, so her face turned red. Fortunately, Lou Ben was still immersed in excitement and didn't see it at all.

"Husband, I'm a little tired and want to rest for a while. You probably can't sleep now, right? Why don't you go find Ah Yao and have a chat?" Wang Yanji said

"Oh, okay, okay, madam, you have a good rest, I won't disturb you anymore, I won't disturb you anymore." When Lou Ben heard this, he immediately got up and left the room.

After leaving the room, Lou Ben couldn't help but feel a little strange. What happened to his wife? Why did she have to rest as soon as she came back? I guess you were given trouble by Marquis Xiangwu again today, right?

Lou Ben shook his head, and then went to his second brother's room. He had a hunch that he would not be able to rest tonight.

At this time, Ling Buhuo on the other side had a good sleep. After all, he hadn't felt this tired for a long time. The power of this beautiful young woman was really extraordinary.

Early the next morning, Ling Buhuo packed up and went to court. As usual, there was nothing wrong with him. After the court was over, he went straight to the imperial study.

Yes, he really planned to get things done. After all, he had received this benefit twice and served himself so well yesterday. He was indeed a little embarrassed to delay it.

The most important thing is, wouldn't it be more exciting to wait until Lou Ben takes office before playing?

After being informed by Cao Cheng, Ling Buhuo walked into the imperial study and bowed directly.

"Okay, get back on your feet. Is it time for you to come to me today?" Emperor Wen said directly.

"Your Majesty is wise. Yes, the time is indeed ripe now. Lou Ben has been a little sad lately. He has already asked his wife to come to see me twice."

"If this continues to be delayed, I'm afraid Lou Ben won't be able to handle it anymore, and it won't be easy to explain to Brother Chen. After all, Lou Ben is my brother's friend." Ling Buhuo said.

"Well, okay, but now there are two vacancies in the Tingwei Mansion. One is Tingwei Zuoping, and the other is Tingwei Shi. Do you want him to take any position?" Emperor Wen said.

"Your Majesty, Ting Wei Zuo Ping is in charge of the prison. Although Lou Ben and Lou Taifu have been at loggerheads, they come from the same family after all. Therefore, I think that one Ting Wei history is enough." Ling Buhuo said

Emperor Wen nodded with satisfaction after hearing this. This Ling Zichen still knew how to advance and retreat and was very thoughtful.

"Okay, you go back and wait. I will ask Cao Cheng to deliver the document to you today." Emperor Wen said.

When Ling Buhuo heard this, he naturally knew that he should leave, so he bowed, then slowly exited the imperial study, and soon left the palace.

What he didn't know was that as soon as he left, Taifu Lou received the news and went directly from the East Palace to the Royal Study.

When Emperor Wen learned that Taifu Lou was coming, he knew that trouble was coming. However, he wanted to see this person when he came, so he had no choice but to let Cao Cheng bring Taifu Lou in.

"Okay, come back. It's a coincidence that you came here just after Zichen left. Did you do it on purpose? Tell me, what are you going to tell me?" Emperor Wen said directly.

"Your Majesty is wise. I am here to recommend my nephew Lou Ben to serve as an official in the court." Taifu Lou said

"Oh? Did I hear you correctly? Recommend your nephew? Are you sure he's not your son? Anyway, tell me, where do you plan to let him serve?" Emperor Wen asked

"Your Majesty, I still lack a Cao Yu among my subordinates, so..." Taifu Lou said.

"What? Cao Yu? Lou Aiqing, is an official position worth 400 shi worth your asking? Isn't this too low? Is this obviously a sign of inferiority?" Emperor Wen said

"Your Majesty, my nephew has never been an official. If he starts too high, he will be unworthy. I think one Cao Yu is enough. If he starts any higher, I'm afraid he will make a fool of himself." Taifu Lou said.

"Hey, that's not what you said. I remember that Zi Sheng praised your nephew's ability very much before. Wasn't your nephew the one who got the map of Feng Yi County?"

"I wanted to reward him well before, but at that time, my dear, you told me that he had no intention of becoming an official, so the reward was shelved."

"But now that you have recommended him to become an official, it seems that he has figured it out. If this is the case, then this reward can be given to him."

"I know, my dear, that you are afraid of people gossiping, but I cannot chill the hearts of meritorious ministers. Please stop talking about this matter. I have my own plan." Emperor Wen said directly.

After hearing this, Taifu Lou wanted to say something, but His Majesty had already stopped talking, so naturally he could not speak any more.

So he could only bow and thank him, and then turned around and left the imperial study. Emperor Wen looked at Taifu Lou's leaving figure, and the expression on his face gradually became serious.

This Lou Aiqing really has too much on his mind. It seems that he needs to find a way to beat him.

At this time, Taifu Lou didn't know that because of his performance just now, Emperor Wen wanted to beat him. At this time, he returned to the East Palace with a dark and solemn expression.

"Taifu, I see you look worried. Did your father not agree to your promise?" the prince asked.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty said that Cao Yun is too young. He wants to arrange a larger official position as a reward for the incident in Feng Yi County last time. I have nothing to say for a while." Taifu Lou said

"Taifu, are you really unable to win over your nephew? You both come from the same family, why do you have to make the relationship so tense?" the prince asked.

"Your Highness, I understand. I will talk to my nephew after I go back." Taifu Lou said

"Well, Taifu, don't be too impatient. After all, you are still living together now. This is something Ling Buhuo cannot compare with. Take your time and don't rush." ​​The prince advised.

Taifu Lou nodded after hearing this, saying that he understood, and the prince did not try to persuade him again. After all, he knew that his Taifu was in a bad mood today, and he naturally did not want to add fuel to the fire.

Emperor Wen acted quickly, and Lou Ben's documents were quickly prepared. Not long after Ling Buhuo returned to Tingwei Mansion, Cao Cheng came over.

After sending a sincere gift, Cao Cheng left with a smile.

Ling Buhuo looked at the accreditation document in his hand. He knew it was time to have a serious talk with Lou Ben.

Although he knew that through this matter, he could still enjoy the service of the beautiful young woman, there would be many opportunities for this kind of thing in the future, and it would be even more exciting.

So there is no need to rush at this moment, it is still important to get down to business now, after all, he can still tell the difference between a full meal and a full meal.

As long as Lou Ben is under his hand, the beautiful young woman cannot escape from his grasp.

Lou Ben was very happy about Lu Cheng's arrival and quickly invited people into his yard. When Wang Yanji saw Lu Cheng, her expression instantly became unnatural.

However, Lu Cheng did not change at all. Instead, he said calmly, "Master Lou, stop chatting. You'd better clean up quickly. My Marquis is still waiting for you." "Oh, yes, yes, look. I almost delayed this matter. Madam, please help me entertain Brother Lu first, and I'll be back as soon as I can." After Lou Ben finished speaking, he went directly to the room.

After he walked away, Wang Yanji felt a lot more relaxed, and then asked, "Um, I wonder what happened when he went to find my husband?"

"Madam, please don't worry. This is good news. My Lord Marquis has just returned from the palace. What you asked for has been fulfilled." Lu Chengdao

"Ah? Really? That's great, that's great. If your husband knows, he will be very happy." Wang Yanji immediately became happy when she heard this.

"Mrs. Lou, please control yourself. You can't tell Mr. Lou the news now, otherwise, it may not be easy to explain." Lu Cheng bowed and said

"Oh, yes, yes, okay, okay, I won't say, I won't say." Wang Yanji nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

"By the way, Mrs. Lou, my Marquis asked me to ask you, now that everything is settled, how are you preparing the thank you gift you promised before?" Lu Cheng asked

"Ah? Well, you go back and tell Marquis Xiangwu that I am ready. I will send it to my husband when he officially takes office." Wang Yanji said with a somewhat unnatural expression.

Lu Cheng nodded after hearing this and said nothing, which made Wang Yanji feel relieved. At this time, Lou Ben happened to come out.

Lu Cheng and Lou Ben left the Lou family together, leaving Wang Yanji with a complicated expression, her face turned red and she didn't know what she was thinking.

On the other side, Lu Cheng and Lou Ben happened to bump into Mr. Lou who was returning home. Lu Cheng was naturally polite and considerate when he saw this, and Lou Ben was also polite.

Taifu Lou nodded to Lu Cheng, then ignored Lou Ben and walked straight inside.

Lu Cheng took Lou Ben with him, left Lou's house and continued to Tingwei's mansion.

At this time, when Taifu Lou returned to the room, his face became extremely ugly, because he knew that since Ling Buhuo sent someone here, it meant that His Majesty agreed to him.

Otherwise, he would not send someone to find his nephew. This is a tacit understanding between the two. Judging from today's events, His Majesty is really dissatisfied with the prince.

Naturally, he would not say these words when he was in the East Palace, but he knew it in his heart, so he began to figure out what to do next.

After all, he is the Grand Duke and Tutor, and his status is extremely respected. But the price of all this is that he and the Prince are tightly tied together.

If the prince finally ascends the throne, he will be able to serve as minister. He became the de facto prime minister, but if the prince could not sit on the throne, then his end would probably be the annihilation of his clan.

After all, the current majesty can tolerate him, but what about the next majesty? Changing places, he will never leave himself as a hidden danger, so the prince cannot lose.

At this time, Lou Ben on the other side had already arrived at Tingwei's mansion and entered Ling Buhuo's public apartment.

"Hey, here you go, sit down, there are no outsiders here, so I won't talk about those false etiquette." Ling Buhuo said

Lou Ben smiled after hearing this, and he kept all the etiquette he should have. Ling Buhuo's face remained calm, but he nodded in his heart. It seemed that Lou Ben still knew how to advance and retreat.

Ling Buhuo had been thinking before that if Lou Ben really didn't know how to advance or retreat, for the sake of his wife, he would be able to endure it. Unexpectedly, he was quite sensible.

"You, that's all. I guess you've guessed what's going on, right? Yes, I went to the palace today to ask for an audience with His Majesty. Your official document of appointment has arrived."

"The official position is not too high. Tingwei Shi, originally I meant Tingwei Zuo Ping. After all, he still has some rights, but Taifu Lou asked to see His Majesty after I left."

"I don't know what he said to His Majesty, which resulted in this result." Ling Buhuo said

"Ah, it doesn't matter. I'm very satisfied with this result. If it weren't for you, Marquis Xiangwu, I wouldn't have this opportunity."

"Don't worry. From now on, I will be a shameless official and repay your kindness." Lou Ben knelt down and said.

"Hey, get up, look what you are doing. This is what you are doing for today. I will take a rest tomorrow. You and your wife can come to my house and we can have a good drink."

"I'll tell you more about our Tingwei Mansion." Ling Buhuo said with a smile.

"Oh, that's great. Don't worry, sir. I will definitely arrive on time tomorrow." Lou Ben became even happier when he heard this. After all, it is rare to have someone to guide him.

"Okay, looking at how you look now, I'm afraid you've just missed your return home? Go back quickly and share this joy with your wife." Ling Buhuo said

"Hehe, thank you for your sympathy, I will resign now." Lou Ben bowed and said

"Oh, by the way, please leave the official documents here first. It's probably not safe at home. Okay, go back. Don't forget to bring your wife with you tomorrow." Ling Buhuo said

After hearing this, Lou Ben naturally thanked him again and again, and was slowly sent out of Tingwei's Mansion by Lu Cheng on his way back. Lou Ben suddenly felt a little strange, why did Ling Buhuo always mention his wife?

But he didn't think much about it. After all, if there were only two people, it wouldn't show the closeness. If they brought their families, then the relationship would be unusual.

At this time, Lu Cheng on the other side walked up to Ling Buhuo and said, "Master, I have already reminded Mrs. Lou. She said that she is ready until her husband takes office."

"Haha, this little woman is quite smart, but she can't make the decision on this kind of thing. You should go back now and clean up the house. Don't be rude when I entertain guests tomorrow." Ling Buhuo said in a deep voice.

"It's the young master. Let's do it right now." After hearing this, Lu Cheng naturally bowed and then turned and left Tingwei's Mansion.

After returning to the Hou Mansion, Lu Cheng became busy. After all, cleaning up the mansion was not just as simple as cleaning up the mansion. He knew what his son planned to do tomorrow.

Therefore, this mansion naturally needs to be cleaned up before the young master can have fun with peace of mind.

At this time, Lou Ben had already returned to his mansion and told his wife about the matter.

"What? Going to Xiangwuhou Mansion tomorrow? Husband, have you read the official document? Are you really coming down?" Wang Yanji asked unnaturally

"That's natural. Your husband, I'm not stupid. I've seen it myself. It's absolutely true. You don't need to be too nervous about the banquet tomorrow. Marquis Xiangwu probably just wants to show his closeness." Lou Ben said
