In the eighth year of Chongzhen's reign, at a banquet in France.
A handsome French young man threw his white gloves at Lu Xiao angrily.
Lu Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that throwing white gloves in this era meant he was going to duel with him.
"Although I already understand the meaning of your action. But can you tell me why you want to challenge me for a duel? I don't know you. This is the first time we meet tonight. Is there any offense on my part?"
According to Lu Xiao's impression, duels are fatal. He thought he had inadvertently violated some kind of custom or taboo.
But the French aristocratic young man said angrily, "The two ladies beside you are as beautiful as angels in the sky. You actually possess them both by yourself. This is something I absolutely cannot tolerate, so let's duel. For
Where these two beautiful ladies belong!”
Lu Xiao's face turned dark on the spot. Ding Baiying, who was next to him, had her right hand pressed on the handle of the knife. Although she was bringing a ceremonial knife to attend the banquet, Lu Xiao had no doubt that she could
Within seconds, he slit the throat of the young man in front of him.
However, he still reached out and held down Ding Baiying's movements. Naturally, a man must intervene in such a matter.
"Do you know how your behavior is viewed in my country? You are preparing to steal my wife openly by force! So, I will give you three breaths, and you can say your last words
Already."
"Time's up!"

October 14, 2022, China.
In a European history class, a student raised his hand and asked the teacher.
"Teacher, I once read in a European history book about a family named Rossouart. It is known as the oldest family in France.
It is said that their family has lasted for nearly seven hundred years as early as the Ming Dynasty in my country. It stands to reason that they should now be a family with a thousand-year history. But why didn’t I find any information about this family in the textbook? ?”
After hearing this question, the teacher had a strange expression on his face.
"It's a very interesting question. If we want to know the answer to this question, we must know about a person. A legend in Chinese history, the King of Bohai, Lu Xiao."
"Is that the one who is known as the Man-Slayer, the God of War, and the Savior of the Ming Dynasty, Bohai King Lu Xiao? I have watched twenty movies and TV series about him, and I have also read six different biographies. I am sure that there are no related events mentioned in them.
"
"The amount of reading you have surprised me, which is good. But this matter has not been made public. It is recorded in a very niche... biography. And it is only circulated among a very small number of people.
It’s normal that you haven’t seen it.
The cause of this incident was a banquet. King Bohai attended on behalf of the Ming Dynasty. It was also called France at that time, a banquet of nobles in a European country.
At the banquet, a descendant of the Rothschild family did something disrespectful to his wife. For this reason, he accepted the other party's challenge to a duel."
"Just a duel?"
"Of course it wasn't a duel. In fact, later on, the Rothshuat family challenged Lu Xiao to duels many times. Later, Lu Xiao took the initiative to challenge the opponent to a duel. So..."
"...Teacher, how do you know these things?"
"Haha, because I happen to be one of those very few people."
