Chapter 739 Hold Tight
Lu Chaochao plans to use these eight clay figures to maintain the sect.
As for the master who would teach her how to practice, she had other arrangements.
Wake up the next day.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she heard that His Majesty was going to build something on the top of a mountain a hundred miles away from the capital.
It is said that the project was of great magnitude, with the national treasury opened and a large sum of silver allocated, and construction started that day.
We are also planning to hold the four-nation talks next month, and preparations are currently in full swing.
After these two incidents, the court was very uneasy.
This matter is of great importance. If it were to get out, it would probably cause unrest. Emperor Xuanping did not publicize the news, but people in the court could vaguely feel that a storm was coming.
Although everything is tense, it is also progressing rapidly.
Lu Chaochao went to the girls' school in person and found that the school had made great progress. Even Zhixin couldn't help but sigh: "This good seedling was almost buried."
"She should be able to give it a try next year." Next year will be Yuzhu's third year in school.
Lu Chaochao had a smile on her face, and the righteousness flowing faintly over the girl's head made her feel gratified.
"If you were willing to enroll, I wouldn't have to find a closed disciple now." Zhixin blew his beard and glared. If there was anyone with talent that could compare with Yuzhu, it was probably Lu Chaochao.
"I can't compare to Yuzhu." Lu Chaochao admitted.
"Although I am more talented than Yuzhu, Yuzhu only has the belief of studying in her heart."
"But I have too many complicated thoughts and cannot compare with Yuzhu. It is the best solution for the saint to accept Yuzhu as his disciple." Besides, Lu Chaochao's personality is not to be disciplined.
Zhixin looked at her dimly, then looked up at the sky.
"I can only help you for five years. For the rest, you have to rely on yourself. How far you can go in the mortal world depends entirely on luck." Shu Zong, after all, could not compete with the divine world. He is responsible for the lives of many disciples of Shu Zong.
Lu Chaochao understood: "It is a great blessing for the saint to send us on a journey to the mortal world. Chaochao would like to thank the saint for his help on behalf of the mortal world." Lu Chaochao bowed to him respectfully.
"If you are short of disciples, why not... take Shanshan with you?"
Zhixin jumped up: "You damn girl, I risked my life to help you, but you turned evil into evil! Go, go, go quickly..."
Zhixin originally wanted to persuade her a little longer, but when he heard her words, he became furious and sent her away in a few seconds.
Lu Chaochao stood outside the girls' school, touching her nose awkwardly.
Although Shanshan is a little annoying, it’s not that serious.
When she returned home, Xie Yuzhou had already gotten up and was sitting at the table.
As soon as he saw Chao Chao, his eyebrows and eyes flew up: "Let me tell you, is your mother going to arrange a marriage for your eldest brother?"
Lu Chaochao looked at him in confusion: "When did it happen?"
"I overheard it this morning. But...your brother is almost thirty years old, isn't it time for him to get married? The girls in this city are all waiting for him."
"If he doesn't marry a wife, he won't be able to get one in two years."
Lu Chaochao asked him inexplicably: "Why can't I marry her?"
Xie Yuzhou raised his chin slightly, looking very proud: "Because I have grown up, with me, there is no need for him. He should get married quickly while I am still young."
Lu Chaochao...
Sure enough, after a good sleep he returned to his old self.
Lu Chaochao thought to herself that her second brother would be a father next year and her third brother would be fifteen. Only my eldest brother is still alone. No wonder my mother is worried.
She tiptoed to the door and heard the conversation between her brother and mother inside the house.
"Mom, when I was going to court this morning, I 'coincidentally' met several girls on the road. Was it arranged by you?" Lu Yanshu sat helplessly at the table. The eighteen-year-old Lu Yanshu would blush when he mentioned feelings.
Now that Lu Yanshu is in the court, there is no fluctuation in his emotions when he talks about his feelings.
Xu Shiyun felt guilty and didn't dare to look her son in the eye.
The official authority over her eldest son became more and more powerful. Sometimes, she even felt her scalp tingling under her son's deep gaze and dared not refute him.
"You are the only one in the court..." Xu Shiyun sighed deeply.
"Look, who is as old as you and still doesn't have a wife and children?" How could Yunniang not be worried. For ordinary people of this age, their children are older than Chaochao.
Xu Shiyun felt jealous when she saw other people holding weddings.
"Yes, Li Zixi is two years older than me." Lu Yanshu actually found one.
Xu Shiyun choked...
"So you two are competing with each other, right?" Two bachelors are quite proud?
"Mom, I said last time that I don't want to indulge in love affairs. I don't have any thoughts of getting married for the time being..."
"Now that the second son is married and you are about to have grandchildren, there is no need to urge your son, right?"
Lu Yanshu looked gentle, but he was always firm, and Yunniang couldn't help but have a headache.
"You don't have any girls you like that you meet on the road?"
Yunniang asked hurriedly.
Lu Yanshu nodded.
"Then...then..." Yunniang held the handkerchief, looking a little embarrassed.
"Where are those good-looking boys?" She looked at Lu Yanshu with burning eyes, not missing any of his expressions.
Lu Yanshu was stunned for a moment.
"Male??" Lu Yanshu, who had been in the officialdom for many years, had a sudden expression on his face.
"You don't like the girl, and you don't like the boy either?" Yunniang was anxious, really anxious. At worst...really, at worst, my son-in-law and his wife can accept it! !
Lu Chaochao covered her mouth and said, "My mother is so open-minded."
But think about it, Big Brother holding hands with a man...
Oh, Lu Chaochao didn’t dare to think about it. It’s really... exciting.
Lu Yanshu looked at his mother and began to laugh. Xu Shiyun actually felt a little frustrated under his gaze.
"Yes, no matter if it's a man or a woman, I don't like them."
"Besides, my son has no idea about men." Lu Yanshu couldn't help but correct him. He was afraid that one day he would return to his room to rest and find a man lying on the bed.
Lu Yanshu glanced at the door, nodded at Xu Shiyun, and suddenly opened the door.
puff……
Lu Chaochao lunged forward and fell onto his eldest brother's legs.
He raised his head awkwardly, revealing his missing teeth.
"Mom, I'll take my leave first." Lu Yanshu took Lu Chaochao's hand and walked out the door.
After the brother and sister walked away, Dengzhi stepped forward and advised: "Madam, the eldest master has been a man of his own opinion since he was young. If he doesn't want to do something, no one can force him."
"Why do you have to bother the eldest young master?" Dengzhi thought about it and felt that no girl seemed to be worthy of the eldest young master.
The eldest son is extremely talented, as handsome as Pan An, polite to others, and holds great power at a young age. He is like the clouds in the sky, unattainable.
Xu Shiyun sat dejectedly at the table, resting one hand on her forehead.
"I understand," she whispered.
How could she not understand?
She understood it all.
Her son has the people and the country in his heart, and is a man of integrity. There is no romance or love in his heart.
But Xu Shiyun... couldn't help but panic.
Chaochao and Yanshu are like kites.
She brought them into the world, but couldn't hold the string, which always gave her a sense of uncertainty and trance.
Eager to keep his son by his side through emotional ties.
She is afraid...
She was afraid that she couldn't hold it.
This is a mother's intuition.
