"What? You want to join the guest hall? Become a guest guest?"
Just after she brought Lu Li and her brother back to the Liu Family Courtyard, and before their buttocks were even hot, Miss Yi received a shocking news.
Lu Li said with certainty: "Yes, I want to join the living room. As long as the Liu family agrees, if anything happens to the Liu family in the future, Lu Li will fight to the death!"
Lu Ling has made it very clear to him that he can join any family, but he must only be a guest minister, and he must not join the outer hall. Of course, the inner hall is impossible. Generally, only children of the same clan can join the inner hall.
Lu Li had rarely disobeyed his sister since he was a child. This time he felt even more sorry for his sister after hearing what happened to her. How could he disobey her
"etc!"
Miss Yi took a sip of tea and said seriously: "Lu Li, you may not understand the big family, the outer hall and the living room. If..."
"I understand everything!"
Lu Li interrupted Miss Yi and said apologetically: "I know that if I join the living room, my status in the family will be very low, and my resources, power and salary will be very small. But I have my own reasons. I can only guarantee that as long as the Liu family accepts me, In the living room, if something happens to the Liu family, I will die..."
"Stop talking, it's meaningless."
When Miss Yi saw Lu Li asking for various guarantees, she shook her head and said: "The rules are the rules. I don't have the final say in the family. Not to mention that even my father has no right to give the guest the treatment of the outer hall. And... you have offended Di Ba. , now Di Ba is the outer elder of the Zhao family, it’s okay if you are in the city, but if you leave the city, the family will definitely not be able to protect you! "
"I know!" Lu Li nodded affirmatively again: "But I still insist!"
After Lu Li finished speaking, he could clearly feel that Miss Yi's face turned gloomy. Several guards inside and outside the hall looked a little bad, and their eyes were mocking, as if... they were silently blaming Lu Li for not knowing what was good and what was good.
Lu Ling stood next to Lu Li, saying nothing the whole time. Her face was covered with a gauze scarf, her eyebrows lowered and her eyes lowered. It was impossible to tell what she was thinking.
"All right!"
Miss Yi was too lazy to persuade her. She stood up and said, "You need to complete a task to join the living room. You may have to leave the city. You'd better be careful. As long as you complete the task, you will be the guest of the Liu family. I hope you practice well. If... you want If you change your mind, you can come to me at any time, Liu Yu, take them to the living room and tell the elders what I mean."
Miss Yi got up and took the people away, leaving the guard Liu Yu expressionless and saying to Lu Li and his brother, "Let me go."
Liu Yu's attitude changed drastically. Lu Li and Lu Ling could understand that Ke Qing was actually not welcome in any family. Unless Lu Li has very strong fighting power, no one wants to raise a person in vain, and that person may join a hostile family...
…
The Liu family was very large, with stacked buildings, densely covered pavilions and pavilions, and candlelight everywhere. It was luxurious yet elegant. It was the first time for the siblings to see such a novel scenery, and they felt overwhelmed.
"The Liu family is no different than your tribe. There are many rules here. You are not allowed to wander around at ordinary times. You can only walk in the living room. To leave Liu Fort, you must enter and exit from the west gate, and your sister cannot go in and out at will. The elders in the living room will give you a detailed The illustrated catalog will tell you all the rules.”
Liu Yu explained to Lu Li while walking. Lu Li nodded slightly, while Lu Ling lowered his head and stopped looking around.
After walking for a few sticks of incense, Liu Yu led the two of them to a large courtyard. There were more than a dozen separate small courtyards, many of which were lit with candles. It seemed that there were also some guests from the Liu family.
"Elder Chang, this is the new guest guest named Lu Li. Miss Yi wants you to arrange the rest."
Arriving at a small courtyard, Liu Yu left the two siblings to the white-bearded old man and left without looking at Lu Li and his siblings again. The white-bearded old man had a kind smile on his face. He pointed to a small courtyard in the corner and said, "My name is Cheng Qu, and I am the elder of the living room. You go and stay there first. We will talk about anything tomorrow."
The white-bearded old man threw another wooden slip to Lu Li and said, "These are the rules of the living room. You have to read them first. If you don't understand, ask me tomorrow."
Lu Li and his brother stepped back and walked into the small courtyard in the corner. This small courtyard was larger than the courtyard where they lived in the tribe, with four rooms. The decorations inside are average, much better than the courtyard where the Dillon tribe lives.
Putting down the package, Lu Ling walked around the yard, walked in and nodded: "Yes, it is very quiet and safe here, suitable for retreat. If nothing else happens, we should live here for a year or two."
Lu Li was reading the catalog Cheng Qu gave him to understand the rules of the Liu family's living room. When he heard these words, he raised his head and asked, "Sister, will you stay here for a year or two? Where are we going?"
"south!"
Lu Ling pointed to the south and said: "The small Wuling City is not suitable for you to stay. You have more important things. Within three years, you must go to Tianwu City, Tianhan City or Tianliang City to join the three largest cities in the Northern Desert. A fifth-grade royal family becomes a guest of one of the families!”
"Tianwu City, Tianhan City, Tianliang City? Royal family?"
Lu Li was frightened by Lu Ling again. These three cities were the three major royal cities in the Northern Desert. They were the capitals of the three major kingdoms in the Northern Desert: Tianwu Kingdom, Tianhan Kingdom, and Tianliang Kingdom.
Lu Ling actually asked him to go to the three royal cities and join one of the three royal families? who is he? A commoner from a small tribe is lucky to be able to join the overlord of a county like the Liu family.
Royal family
That is the super overlord who stands at the pinnacle of the Northern Desert. The leader of the Liu family is probably even looked down upon by the royal family's gatekeepers, right? How could he be so virtuous as to join the royal family and become a guest minister
"Lu Li, don't underestimate yourself. I told you that your status is extraordinary, and your future achievements are also limitless. As long as you work hard, one day you will stand on the top of the Northern Desert and make the entire Northern Desert famous. Trembling under your feet, with the blood of the Lu family flowing in your bones, you are destined to be anything but ordinary."
Lu Ling said sternly, then paused and explained: "Joining the fifth-grade royal family is your first goal, and you still have a long way to go. Now... don't think about anything, just practice hard and wait for your bloodline to awaken. Say it again.”
Black lines appeared on Lu Li's forehead again. Lu Ling always kept many things hidden, which made him feel like she was in the clouds. However, she had a stubborn personality. If she didn't tell Lu Li, he might not be able to find out.
He could only go back to his room with the picture album. Lu Ling would always live in the yard from now on, and the picture album was not needed. He had to carefully observe the various rules in the Liu family's living room to avoid being kicked out of the Liu family.
After looking through the catalog several times, Lu Li understood a little bit about the rules of the living room. The Liu family had very few restrictions on guests. As long as they didn't mess around under the banner of the Liu family or mess around in the Liu family, it was basically fine.
The Liu family will distribute salaries and provide certain resources every month, and will basically not mobilize guest officials unless the family encounters a crisis of genocide.
This is equivalent to... raising a group of idle people for nothing.
However, every guest guest must take an assessment to prove his ability or potential before joining the guest hall. The Liu family will definitely not raise a bunch of useless people in vain.
"Assessment?"
Miss Yi also said about the assessment, and Lu Li frowned. Don't leave the city for this assessment, otherwise Di Ba and others will definitely try their best to ambush and kill him. Once he dies while on duty, Lu Ling will no longer be qualified to live here and will be expelled. The fate waiting for her will definitely be extremely miserable...
