The master took on such an errand, and his heart was pounding, thinking that no matter what, he couldn't go there empty-handed like this. It's just that if Gu Sheruo is really Gu Xianzhi, he doesn't lack in wealth, status and reputation. If he really has something in his heart, it's not something his wealth can afford to give it away. After much deliberation, he only came up with a beauty trick, but Gu Xianzhi's rumors are numerous, but he has never heard of any romantic affairs with any beauty. Occasionally, interesting things are also classmates...
His mind lit up, and he suddenly thought of someone—
Xue Yihou Xue Lingbi.
Wasn't he not close to women back then? And the facts prove that he doesn't love beautiful women, but he just doesn't love beautiful women.
The more he thought about it, the more it seemed possible. Gu Xianzhi's literary talent is shocking to the world, so he must like people who can laugh and chat with him, and watch the mountains and rivers. Such women are hard to find in this world, but men do exist. What's more, inviting a woman to go, the intention is obvious, if it doesn't work, it will make the situation worse. If a man is invited to go, even if the temptation fails, he can retreat without losing face.
Several people's names flashed through the master's mind in an instant, and he finally decided on one person.
Liu Chongpin is well-known in Tancheng, but this name is a stigma, and his voice is scolding.
He wasn't from Qincheng originally, but a citizen who remarried with his mother. Because of his outstanding appearance and good conversation, he established a firm foothold in the local area in the first few months, and joined the very famous poetry club at that time. He ranked fifth among the six sons of Tancheng, known as the fifth son of Ya.
It's just that Lu Yao knows horsepower, and he knows people's hearts over time.
Not long after Liu Chongpin integrated into this place, his true character was gradually revealed. Going after others, sowing discord, benefiting oneself at the expense of others... All kinds of deeds are amazing. Because of him, the six sons of Tancheng who were once popular cut off their robes, and the poetry club was disbanded.
However, the master admired his eloquence very much, and would occasionally invite him to drink and talk, but he ignored Liu Chongpin's repeated mention of recommending him in front of the magistrate. The master knows in his heart that some people can be used, but they must not be used. And now is the time to take advantage.
In fact, using Liu Chongpin, the master is still a little worried. After all, Liu Chongpin was the one who crossed rivers and demolished bridges, if he really hooked up with Gu Xianzhi, he might not only forget about him, but even deal with him in reverse. But now he couldn't help but pick and choose. It is not difficult to find a talented and beautiful man, but it is not easy to find such a man who is willing to subdue another man.
When Liu Chongpin heard the master talk about this matter, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't hide his joy, "Is it really Gu Xianzhi?"
The master thought to himself, I just want to know whether he is or not. "Naturally. Judging by that man's demeanor, who else could there be besides Gu Xianzhi?"
At this moment, Liu Chongpin seemed to see a gold ingot dropped from the world, but he became uncertain in his heart, "As Gu Xianzhi, is there anyone who wants to? How could he fall in love with me?"
The master said: "Brother Liu is modest. How can Brother Liu's appearance and talent be comparable to ordinary people? Gu Xian is famous all over the world, so he must be proud and arrogant. If it is not Brother Liu, he may not be tempted by his character."
Liu Chongpin felt elated by the praise, but he really didn't want to give up such a great opportunity, so he asked tentatively: "Then Gu Xianzhi really has a habit of breaking his sleeves and dividing his peaches?"
The master said: "There are such rumors, but Brother Liu has to confirm whether it is true or not." As he spoke, he showed a smile with deep meaning.
Liu Chongpin didn't care either. In fact, he had read a lot of stories in the history books about men relying on their beauty to rise to the top, and he was also yearning for it in his heart. Although Gu Xianzhi is not a prince or general, his family background is first-class in character, talent and learning. If he can really catch up with him, even if he can't make it to the top, he will definitely be able to get rid of the current embarrassing situation. As for the magistrate's feud with Gu She...it has nothing to do with him!
The master knew from his expression that he was tempted, so he discussed with him in detail how to deal with it.
Liu Chongpin wrote down one by one. After the master left, he dug out two more erotic novels, replaced the women in the books with himself in his mind, and practiced quietly.
After looking for Liu Chongpin, the master still felt that it was not enough. After thinking for a while, he recruited two more arresting officers to invite several respected calligraphers and painters in the city. Although these people disdain to associate with the master, when they heard that Gu Xianzhi had arrived in Tancheng, they were all overjoyed and hurriedly agreed to come down.
Afterwards, the master ordered the two policemen to remember the address, and then went to wait outside the inn. If you see him raising his hand while talking with Gu She, he will come here to invite them.
Quickly respond.
After such preparations, the master went to the pharmacy to buy some tonics, found Liu Chongpin, and went to the inn together.
When they arrived at the inn, Tao Mo and the others were about to have dinner, and when they saw them coming, all of them were downcast.
Only Mr. Jin stood up with a smile, "Master Yao, you are a rare visitor, and you are welcome at a distance." Since Tao Mo wants to continue to be an official, the immediate boss of the prefect of Qincheng can't be offended for the time being.
Master Yao hurriedly returned the gift.
Lao Tao was glad that Gu Xiaojia was serving Gu She's meals upstairs, otherwise, with his personality, there would have been a lot of trouble.
He reassured too soon.
Gu Xiaojia's sharp voice came from behind, with hostility, "It's you! What are you doing here?"
Master Yao's eyelids twitched, and his smile did not change: "This little brother is..."
Master Jin said: "Young Master Gu's book boy."
Gu Xiaojia said coldly: "Are you here to plead guilty? Where are the vines? Where are the thorns? You came here without anything?"
There was cold sweat dripping from Master Yao's back. This Gu Xiaojia in front of him was much harder to deal with than the others. Gu She insisted on his own identity, so he would not hurt others so verbally. And others would not hurt others because of his status as the magistrate's master, but Gu Xiaojia was born in the prime minister's mansion, and he didn't have to respect his status, so it was the most difficult to deal with.
Thinking is just a moment. He quickly said: "I just came to visit Mr. Gu." He handed over the things in his hand, and smiled apologetically, "It's a small thing, it's not a respect."
Gu Xiaojia didn't even bother to roll his eyelids, "Since it's not a respect, why bother sending it to embarrass yourself!"
Master Yao's smile finally couldn't hold back, and a few cracks opened.
Liu Chongpin, who was standing behind him without speaking, opened his mouth and said: "Xiaosheng has admired Mr. Gu for a long time, and I heard that he was injured, so I am very anxious. I wonder if this little brother can help me and recommend him for Xiaosheng?"
Tao Mo's eyes lit up when he saw him. Liu Chongpin has a handsome appearance and outstanding appearance. Among the people in the inn lobby, he stands out from the crowd and is very eye-catching.
Gu Xiaojia didn't appreciate it, "What is my son's identity, and you can see it as soon as you want?"
Liu Chongpin smiled nonchalantly: "Yes, yes. Xiaosheng is reckless. As long as Mr. Gu is safe and sound, Xiaosheng has nothing to ask for."
Gu Xiaojia heard that his tone was quite sincere, so he relaxed a little and said, "My lord finished his meal and rested."
Liu Chongpin couldn't hide his disappointment in his eyes, "It's rare that Mr. Gu came to Tancheng, and Xiaosheng didn't have the chance to see the true face of Lushan Mountain, which makes people sad."
Master Yao said at the right time: "Brother Liu, isn't he good at copying Mr. Gu's paintings? Why don't you just wave one of them on the spot. If you can get Mr. Gu's comment, you will be very lucky."
Liu Chongpin groaned secretly. Master Yao told him to rush, he didn't have time to prepare anything, not to mention copying Gu Xianzhi's paintings, he didn't even study carefully what Gu Xianzhi had painted, how could he show his skills on the spot
Seeing that he didn't answer, Master Yao went on and said, "Don't you dare to show your shame? Oh, yes. Mr. Gu's calligraphy and painting are unparalleled in the world, I'm afraid all the talented people in the world will feel ashamed in front of Mr. Gu. If we can let us see Mr. Gu The authentic work of the book is an eye-opener, and we will not waste our lives."
Master Jin and Lao Tao exchanged glances, and understood their intentions.
Gu Xiaojia frowned, walked down the stairs, sat next to Hao Guozi and ate with his head buried in his mouth, and ignored them.
Master Yao cheekily sat down at the table next to them, and said with a dry smile: "Actually, I came this time because of the intention of the magistrate. Ever since the magistrate missed Mr. Gu on a whim last time, um... since then, I have been feeling uneasy He originally wanted to take the blame himself, but unfortunately he fell ill. The doctor said it was stagnation in his chest and it was not suitable for him to get out of bed, so he sent me here."
Gu Xiaojia swallowed a big mouthful of rice, and said with a sneer: "How can a stagnation in the chest be stronger than the three big boards?"
Master Yao was speechless. He can't suggest that they return these three boards.
From the very beginning, Liu Chongpin noticed that Tao Mo was sizing him up from time to time. He knew it was a good opportunity to start, so he quickly raised a gentle smile and said, "This young master is..."
Hao Guozi glanced at him and said in a low voice, "This is my young master."
…
After Liu Chongpin had a meal, he calmly cupped his hands and said, "Hi, young master."
Hao Guozi sneered and said, "My family has no shortage of servants."
Liu Chongpin smiled slightly.
Master Jin looked at him and Master Yao, as if weighing his status and intentions.
Master Yao rushed to introduce: "This is the magistrate of Tanyang County, Master Tao Motao."
Liu Chongpin hurriedly got up and clasped his fists and said, "Look at you for a long time."
Tao Mo blushed, stood up and replied, "Don't dare."
