Film and TV: Traveling through countless worlds at the same time

Sheng Changfeng said anxiously.

Gu Tingye turned his head and glanced at him, then shook his head and said, "Forget it. You should study for a few more years. Otherwise, I'm afraid you will feel ashamed when you meet Wei Xingtou."

"Second Brother Gu, am I really that bad?" Sheng Changfeng shouted in dissatisfaction.

The rest of the people all burst into laughter.

After leaving Sheng Mansion, Lu Xiao went straight back home.

I told my wife that I was going to Guangyuntai to meet friends that evening and might not be back. Then I rested for two hours before leaving.

In response, Sheng Shulan, who was always virtuous, said nothing.

Instead, he happily sent Lu Xiao out the door.

And told him not to come back at night if he could.

During this period, Lu Xiao's physical fitness became more and more terrifying.

This resulted in Sheng Lan being unable to withstand his torment.

Every time we fought, we had to beg for mercy several times.

Honestly, I'm really tired.

She was now hoping that Lu Xiao would stay out more often at night.

In fact, she had been thinking about giving Lu Xiao a few concubines these days.

After all, there is strength in numbers.

When we arrived at Guangyuntai, the sky had already begun to darken.

As the most famous brothel in Bianliang City, Guangyuntai is definitely not inferior to Zuixianju in the Joy of Life world.

However, this was Lu Xiao's first visit to such a place since arriving in Bianjing City.

Fortunately, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Changbai Shutong waiting at the first floor entrance.

After seeing Lu Xiao, the servant hurried forward.

"Sir, my son-in-law is waiting for you on the third floor."

After saying this, he led Lu Xiao up to the third floor and into a private room called "Yunyan Pavilion."

When Lu Xiao opened the door, he saw that it was already full of people.

In addition to the Changbai brothers and Gu Tingye, Qi Heng also arrived.

In addition, each person was served by two good-looking women.

Especially the woman sitting on Gu Tingye's left, her appearance and temperament are both top-notch.

As soon as he saw Lu Xiao coming in, Gu Tingye immediately waved.

"Tuizhi, you are finally here. Let me introduce you. The person next to me is Wei Xingshu, the famous leader of the capital."

He's really playing it.

At this moment, Wei Xingtou also looked over. When he saw Lu Xiao, his eyes lit up instantly, and he asked Gu Tingye curiously.

"This young man looks unfamiliar, but he has such an extraordinary aura. I guess he's not an ordinary person, right?"

Gu Tingye immediately introduced him proudly, "Let me tell you, our brother Tuizhi is this year's Suzhou Prefecture champion. I can guarantee that those so-called talented people who usually come to your Guangyuntai will be nothing compared to him."

Although they had only known each other for half a day, Gu Tingye had already been deeply impressed by Lu Xiao's talent.

Lu Xiao shook his head slightly and said, "Zhong Huai, you're really stupid! If your words get out, I'm afraid I'll become the enemy of every talented person in Bianjing City. Wei Xing Shou, don't listen to his nonsense. My talent is only slightly better than that playboy's."

Wei Xingtou smiled softly, covering his mouth with his hand. "Sir, you are quite humorous. If Tingye had said this to someone else, I might not have believed him. But if it were you, his statement is not an exaggeration. If I'm not mistaken, you must be Master Lu Xiao, right?"

When these words came out, everyone in the room was stunned.

They remembered clearly that they had never mentioned Lu Xiao's real name in front of Wei Xingzuo.

How did Wei Xing Shou know this?

"Do you know me?" Lu Xiao asked curiously.

Wei Xingtou smiled faintly and said, "I've long heard of your great name. It's a household name."

"So exaggerated?" Lu Xiao was puzzled.

Wei Xingtou shook his head. "That's not an exaggeration at all. All the guests who come to our Guangyuntai are either wealthy or noble, including many high-ranking officials in the imperial court. Young Master Lu, the story you wrote during this year's Suzhou Prefecture provincial examination has now spread throughout the court. The emperor himself read it and declared you a worthy candidate for the top spot. Even now, all the major gambling houses in Bianjing are offering the lowest odds on you taking first place in next year's imperial examination."

The lowest odds were enough to show that the owners of the major gambling houses in Kyoto all believed that he had the greatest chance of winning the imperial examination.

That's why we set the lowest odds.

When Wei Xingshou said this, everyone in the room was stunned.

Chapter 92 Persuading Gu Tingye

To be honest, Lu Xiao had never imagined that the essay he wrote during the provincial examination would eventually be accepted into the imperial court and even receive praise from the emperor.

He was naturally well aware of the benefits of this.

Even so, he still said modestly, "Everyone, today's protagonist is Zhong Huai. Let's not discuss my own affairs, or else Brother Zhong Huai will blame me for stealing the show."

Sheng Changbai and the others were very insightful.

After hearing this, I understood that Lu Xiao didn't want to publicize this matter.

So everyone tacitly put the subject aside.

He turned his attention back to Gu Tingye.

For the next few days, everyone drank and watched the dance while listening to Gu Tingye recount the interesting stories that happened during his two years of studying at the White Deer Cave Academy.

After three rounds of drinking, Sheng Changfeng, who had the smallest alcohol tolerance, was already about 70% to 80% drunk.

At this moment, Sheng Changbai seemed to remember something, and then he waved his hand to signal the singing girl in the room to leave.

After the singing girls left the private room, Sheng Changbai asked Gu Tingye.

"I was in a hurry this morning and didn't have time to ask in detail, Zhong Huai, what exactly is going on with your mistress?"

Gu Tingye said nonchalantly when he heard this.

"I thought you were asking something mysterious, but this is it. Actually, it's nothing. I met that girl in Bianjing City some time ago. I felt sorry for her, so I gave her some silver and sent her away. Later, her wicked brother cheated her out of all her wealth. She came to me at the White Deer Grotto Academy, saying that her brother had squandered all his money and jumped off a cliff to his death. I felt sorry for her and felt desperate, so I took her in."

After listening to his story, Sheng Changbai shook his head repeatedly.

"Zhong Huai, you are so foolish! You haven't even started a family yet, but you've already taken on a mistress. If this gets out, which family in Bianjing would dare to marry a good girl to you?"

Gu Tingye said nonchalantly, "Don't worry, Zecheng. My concubine is weak and can't take care of herself, but she's easy to get along with. She follows me without seeking any status, so it won't affect my future marriage plans."

Seeing him so carefree, Lu Xiao finally couldn't help but speak.

"Weak and unable to take care of herself? I can't see it, right?"

After all, he is Changbai's good friend, so I can't just stand by and watch him die.

As soon as these words came out, several people looked over.

"Brother Tuizhi, what do you mean by this?"

Gu Tingye asked.

Lu Xiao drank a glass of wine before speaking, "Zhong Huai, logically speaking, since we just met today, I have no right to comment on your family affairs. However, for Changbai's sake, I still have to remind you of something."

"Brother Tuizhi, just say it. I'm not someone who doesn't know what's good for me." 9 Bell Six is ​​Qi Ba Erqian Gu Tingye said.

Lu Xiao nodded and said, "Alright, then I'll tell you what I'm saying. If you can listen, that's great. If not, just treat it as some drunken rambling."

"You just said that your concubine is weak and unable to take care of herself. Then let me ask you, when you first met her in Bianjing City, did she know your identity?"

Gu Tingye said, "You probably don't know. Zecheng knows me, but when I'm away from home, I don't like to introduce myself."

Gu Tingye's relationship with his family is very strained.

This is well-known throughout the entire city of Bianjing.

"Then the question is, if she doesn't even know your identity, how did she know you were studying at the White Deer Cave Academy?" Lu Xiao asked.

Gu Tingye thought for a moment, then said, "Perhaps she heard it from someone else later?"

Lu Xiao said, "Okay, then even if she knew your identity and that you went to the White Deer Cave Academy, then the question arises: how could a frail, incapable girl like her travel hundreds of miles across mountains and rivers to find you, and how could she find you safely?"

Although the territory of the Song Dynasty is generally peaceful now.

But that doesn't mean there are no risks.

Let alone a girl, even an adult man who wanted to travel hundreds of miles away from home alone would not be without danger.

However, Gu Tingye seemed to trust his mistress very much and said foolishly, "I've asked about this before. She met a kind merchant caravan on the road, so she accompanied them to the White Deer Cave Academy."

Lu Xiao couldn't help but shake his head. "Well, since you trust your mistress so much, I won't say much. But I'll remind you one last thing. If I were you, I would definitely have someone thoroughly investigate her background, especially her brother's affairs. It would be a piece of cake for you, and you might even get something unexpected."

That's all I have to say. Lu Xiao has said everything he needs to say.

If Gu Tingye still wants to kill himself, then he can't blame anyone else.

The banquet continued.

The two Changbai brothers can actually drink about the same amount of alcohol.

After drinking for another half an hour, they both passed out completely drunk.

Qi Heng couldn't hold his liquor well either, but he had strict upbringing, so he only had a few drinks at the beginning and didn't continue playing the game.

The so-called games are nothing more than some flying flower orders and the like.

Gu Tingye, on the other hand, had a pretty good alcohol tolerance, and he drank with Lu Xiao until he was half drunk, then collapsed on the table.

But overall, this was the most enjoyable drinking session Lu Xiao had had since arriving in Bianjing City.

The wine is almost finished here.

Lu Xiao called Wei Xingtou over and arranged a place for Gu Tingye and the other two to rest.

Then he looked at Qi Heng, the only sober person on the field.

"Are you going to stay at Guangyuntai tonight, or go home?"

Qi Heng said: "Go home."

Lu Xiao nodded: "Okay, then I won't see you off."

After that, he decided to go out for a walk and have a couple of drinks.

Actually, Lu Xiao didn't really like drinking before.

This matter is all my fault in Shaoge's world.

At this moment, Qi Heng suddenly called out, "Wait, I have something to ask you."

Lu Xiao turned around and asked, "It's rare. What do you want to ask?"

Qi Heng seemed very nervous at this moment, his fists clenched tightly. After a moment of confusion on his face, he finally spoke.

"You know I like Sixth Sister, right?"

Lu Xiao nodded: "Yeah."

"I know there's a huge gap between our family backgrounds, but if I say I don't care about this, would you believe me?" Qi Heng asked.

Lu Xiao said, "I believe it."

Qi Heng seemed to have not expected this answer and was stunned for a moment.

He originally thought that Lu Xiao thought he was just playing around, so he didn't let him have any contact with Sheng Xiaoliu.

But now it seems that this is not the case.

Thinking of this, Qi Heng gritted his teeth and said.

"If I swear that I will never let Sixth Sister down in this life, can you please not stop us?"

After hearing his question, Lu Xiao smiled at him for the first time.

"Qi Heng, Qi Heng, you've impressed me a little bit today. At least you dared to ask me directly, you're still a man. But even if I didn't stop you, there's no chance for you and my Sixth Sister to be together in this life. At most, it's just a matter of fate."

Chapter 93: Three Times Never

After hearing Lu Xiao's words, Qi Heng immediately became angry.

"You're talking nonsense! How do you know we're not meant to be? I'm sincere to my Sixth Sister. For her, I'm willing to do anything!"
