Slacking Off and Gossiping: The Court Officials Are Not Amused

Jiang Yueyang, a 21st-century office worker, died from a cerebral infarction after working overtime and staying up late. In her dying moments, she bound to a 'Gossip System'.

She then...

Chapter 5 Young General

“Speaking of Lu Yunting, he was born into a family of generals and has practiced martial arts since he was young. At the age of six, one could see how he would perform on the battlefield in the future. He is a gifted man and has attracted much attention.

However, fate played tricks on him. When he was seven years old, his father died in the battlefield, sacrificing his life for his country, and his mother also committed suicide for love. Seven-year-old Lu Yunting became an orphan without a father or a mother overnight, and fell from the clouds into the abyss.

In front of him, there were people with ulterior motives eyeing the military power of the Lu Family Army in his hands, and in the back, there were enemies assassinating him day and night. The young Lu Yunting lived in darkness from then on, and over time he developed a cold and inhuman character.

Under the protection of the Lu family army, Lu Yunting gradually came out of the pain of losing his parents and officially took over the Lu family army.

By this time, he had studied military books and practiced martial arts diligently, and at the age of ten, he was able to defeat a general of the Lu family army who could defeat a hundred of them alone!"

Having said that, the storyteller picked up the teapot beside him and poured himself a cup of tea.

He took a sip of tea slowly to moisten his throat, but the audience in the audience couldn't wait even a moment.

"You old man, you've done this again! I don't want to hear the words 'next time' today, so finish your story quickly."

"Yes, if you continue to procrastinate like before, I will make you pay."

[Actually, this storyteller is pretty good. He finished his long speech before sipping water. The storytellers I saw before would drink a sip of water after finishing a sentence, or else they would talk about a bunch of irrelevant things, which was really annoying.] Jiang Yueyang complained to Xiaogua.

Because there were a lot of people in the lobby, including many girls, no one went out of their way to look for the source of the sound.

After hearing this, the impatient young men calmed down a little, as if it was indeed the case.

Compared with other storytellers, Mr. Tao is considered to be honest.

At least he only tells a story for two days, unlike other storytellers who take five, six, seven or eight days to keep people in suspense.

System: [As the saying goes, money makes the world go round. As long as you have money, you can ask the storyteller to tell a whole story in one breath. People make money from this. If you want to listen to a storyteller, how can you not show some appreciation?]

As soon as these words were spoken, the young man who had been shouting the loudest earlier immediately threw a purse at the storyteller.

"There are ten taels in it. Here's a reward for you."

Others also took out silver coins to give as rewards. When the old man saw the huge amounts of silver, he couldn't help but smile.

"Can you finish this in one breath now?"

"Of course." The storyteller threw the teacup in his hand to the floor. "I just wanted to drink some tea to moisten my throat. I didn't mean anything else."

Jiang Yueyang curled her lips, [Are you kidding me? Only a fool would believe it. ]

Storyteller: Which girl talks like that? Can you give him some face?

At this time, the waiter bought the Songjianlu that Jiang Yueyang wanted.

"Girl, the wine you asked for."

Jiang Yueyang nodded slightly at him, "Thank you."

The waiter couldn't help but look at her twice more when he saw that she, a young lady from a wealthy family, was so polite to a commoner like him.

Whose girl is this? She is so pretty. Why have I never seen her before?

Such a well-mannered and beautiful girl should be a household name!

If Jiang Yueyang knew what the waiter was thinking at this moment, she would definitely say it proudly.

There is no way. Our motherland has taught us since childhood to be polite and to be three good students!

But she didn't know that it was her thank you that attracted some attention in the darkness.

Over there, the storyteller began to tell the story about the young general Lu Yunting again.

"Ten-year-old Lu Yunting became famous in one battle and reappeared in front of the world, which also made many people fear him. The Lu family is going to stand up again."

"No!" Someone suddenly shouted, "The Lu family has never fallen, so how can they stand up?"

"That's true on the surface, but do you know that your achievements are greater than your master's?"

The whole audience suddenly fell silent.

The storyteller continued, "Everyone in the Lu family army is resourceful, brave and good at fighting, and they are also loyal to the Lu family. How can Your Majesty not be afraid of the Lu family's power?

A common man is innocent, but he is guilty of possessing a treasure. Lu Yunting is so outstanding at such a young age, and he has such a powerful army. If he wants to..."

The storyteller did not say that word, but changed the subject, "As a result, rumors spread and the Lu family army was pushed to the forefront. In order to protect the Lu family army, the ten-year-old Lu Yunting volunteered to fight the enemy and guard the border.

Those who wanted to split up the Lu family army, seeing that their first plan failed, tried another one. They wanted Lu family army to fight in every battle, hoping that Lu Yunting would die on the battlefield like his father.

Unfortunately, their wish was not met. Lu Yunting led the Lu family army to victory after victory, and his reputation rose. He had numerous military exploits and was no longer a ten-year-old kid who could be easily bullied by others.

Seven years have passed in a blink of an eye, and Lu Yunting has grown into the appearance of his father. He has won the hearts and minds of the soldiers, frightened the enemy, and attracted the love of the girls of Daxia. Who can not love an eighteen-year-old young general? "

[Tsk, what's wrong with this storyteller? He was just talking about national affairs, but suddenly he turned to love affairs? Bad review! ]

Storyteller: “…”

"I don't want to hear that. Tell me what happened on the battlefield."

"You don't want to hear it, but we do. Mr. Tao, how does Mr. Lu look? Is he as handsome as our Crown Prince?"

"Don't worry, everyone. Let me tell you in detail." The storyteller stood up from the stool and looked around. "Lu Yunting is now of marriageable age. Who wouldn't want to marry such an outstanding man? What's more, he has the Lu family army! The evil spirits are ready to make a move again.

For this reason, a minister in the court made a suggestion to Your Majesty, saying that since Lu Yunting was the only one left in the Lu family, he should marry and have children as soon as possible to ensure that the Lu family would have successors. This is also the reason why our General Lu will return to Beijing soon.

As for what General Lu looks like, I have never seen him, but I heard that he is a handsome young man. Whether it is true or not, you can go and see General Lu when he returns to Beijing.

Well, Lu Yunting's story ends here. Thank you all for your support today. See you tomorrow."

"Old man, don't leave. I haven't heard enough. Keep going. How did General Lu kill the enemy on the battlefield?"

The storyteller said calmly, "Please forgive me, sir. This is all I know. I have said it all. Besides, that battlefield is not a place I can go to."

"Spoof!"

The young man said this in displeasure, but he did not embarrass the storyteller. After all, he would come to listen to his story tomorrow.
