Chapter 141: Three Reasons

In fact, speaking of it, Lu Yao has not made many friends and like-minded people since he time traveled. Basically, they can be counted on one hand.

Of course, some of these people are not friends with Lu Yao, but more like superiors and subordinates, or a cooperative relationship.

If we talk about friends alone, Lu Yao himself would say that there should be only two people who can be regarded as Lu Yao's true friends.

One of them is Pan Wen. He became Lu Yao's friend before Lu Yao traveled through time. Although they are close friends, Pan Wen is indeed the person Lu Yao has known for the longest time.

Friends. In fact, when it comes to this, Lu Yao is still a little grateful to Pan Wen. If it were not for Pan Wen, how could Lu Yao have the opportunity to meet Su Shi and Su Che in the brothel, and then, through the relationship between the Pan family

, sold his secret recipe to Pan Wen’s father, Pan Yuanwu, and earned his first pot of gold in the real sense?

Pan Wen, in modern terms, is a second-generation rich man. However, he is different from the modern second-generation rich people who are bohemian, unruly, and arrogant. Pan Wen is more like an inexperienced person.

The young master is curious about everything and doesn’t know much about anything. In the final analysis, this has something to do with the Pan family’s lack of discipline. Fortunately, in this feudal society, although it is not as open as modern times in all aspects, it is

, the system of supremacy of imperial power is the only one that remains unchanged. Now Pan Wen is in Bianliang City, which is the capital city. If someone commits an offense here, the punishment he will receive can be imagined. In addition, although the Pan family has the most popular

Restaurant, Fanlou, but in the final analysis they are just businessmen, so once Pan Wen commits a crime, it is not easy to help Pan Wen.

Therefore, although he was lax in discipline, under the general management of Pan Yuanwu and his mother, Pan Wen was still a person who would not do anything outrageous.

Although his relationship with Lu Yao has undergone some changes after time travel, the two have always been friends. After this new Cuju competition, Pan Wen became a big help to Lu Yao, saying

To be honest, if this had happened before, Lu Yao himself would not have thought that Pan Wen would shine in this matter.

Apart from Pan Wen, the other one is Zhe Kexing. At this point, Lu Yao also realized that the impression he left on people before crossing over was really too bad. Otherwise, besides Pan Wen, how could he be a friend?

Haven't handed it over yet?

Starting from Zhe Kexing, and then to the following people, they all met after Lu Yao traveled through time. From this point of view, in ancient times, a person's moral character was still a very important thing. If he was a dandy, his friends would still be

Relatively few.

It was really a coincidence that Lu Yao met Zhe Kexing. After that, Lu Yao made a sword for Zhe Kexing that was as sharp as clay, and he got a good knife, which he nicknamed Yitian.

The two weapons for slaying the dragon. To Lu Yao's surprise, Zhe Kexing seemed to like the name Yitian Sword very much.

Of course, there is no need to say much about the background of the Zhe family, but Lu Yao is not the kind of person who would make him his friend just by looking at his background. People who share the same views and can get along easily are the best way to make friends in Lu Yao

By that time, it has become a fixed premise. Otherwise, if two people cannot agree on many issues, whether they are lovers or friends, they will basically break up on bad terms in the end.

However, Lu Yao felt very happy during the chat with Zhe Kexing. This guy was a very upright and passionate young man. Lu Yao knew that he could not hang around in Bianliang City all his life.

, must fight in all directions. For this reason, he must make more friends with generals like Zhe Kexing, not just for himself. In fact, in the Song Dynasty, there were actually many such generals, both in the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty.

Among them, the most famous one is naturally Yue Fei. However, most of these people are good at leading troops in war, but in the end, most of them died in the rumors in the court. Now that Lu Yao has traveled through time

, it is necessary to gather people like Zhe Kexing together, on the one hand, to enhance the military and national power, and on the other hand, it is also to protect their safety in disguise.

This is also what it means to be sworn brothers with Zhe Kexing. Now when everyone mentions Zhe Kexing, they will think of Lu Yao. Everyone thinks that the reason why Zhe Kexing can become an instructor in this new Cuju competition is basically because of Lu Yao.

A lot of credit.

However, they only knew that Lu Yao and Zhe Kexing had a good relationship. As for the fact that the two had become brothers, in fact, Lu Yao and Zhe Kexing had agreed to keep it secret.

Pan Wen and Zhe Kexing, in Lu Yao's opinion, should actually be regarded as pure friendship with him, that is, friends. Therefore, with these two people sitting in the battle, Lu Yao is in seclusion, but for this

You don’t have to worry too much about Cuju training for a few days.

Among the other people who are good friends with Lu Yao, more of them have a superior-subordinate, or cooperative relationship with Lu Yao. However, their relationship with Lu Yao is better than that of the factory leaders.

Even more intimate.

Among them, the two people who should actually be classified as friends are the two brothers Su Shi and Su Che. Although Lu Yao really wanted to make friends with Su Shi, and even called them brothers. However, after several contacts with Su Shi, Lu Yao

Yao finally gave up the idea. For some reason, Lu Yao just felt that Su Shi lacked a natural sense of closeness compared to Pan Wen. Moreover, Lu Yao always felt a certain distance when talking to Su Shi, which made

Lu Yao always didn't want to tell Su Shi everything. What was the reason for this? Even Lu Yao couldn't say for sure, but it had something to do with Su Shi actually being a representative of the literati of this era. Put it into perspective.

In modern times, Su Shi has the air of a literati, or to put it bluntly, he is too poor and bookish. Even if Su Shi is praised by later generations as bohemian or talented, the times still have his class.

, which determines his limitations as a literary man of this era.

Because of this, he and the casual Lu Yao always felt that there was still something missing to become friends. However, despite this, Lu Yao still admired Su Shi, Su Che and their father Su Xun from the bottom of his heart.

.Not to mention anything else, just because later generations called the three of them Sansu, and Su Shi had the achievement of being a water melody singer, it was enough to win Lu Yao's respect.

If Su Shi, Su Che and Lu Yao are considered to have a cooperative relationship, then we have to mention another three people, that is, the three clans of Kaifeng Mansion, Bao Zheng, Zhan Zhao, and Gongsun Ce. Especially these three people want Lu Yao to

If Yao himself describes them, he will never classify them as his friends. He can only say that they are good friends.

After all, Lu Yao had never thought of being friends with these three straight men. Moreover, if he wanted to be Bao Zheng's friend, he would have to make a lot of sacrifices. But aside from his personality, Bao Zheng is still

A good official, otherwise the title Bao Qingtian would not exist. In that era, officials like Bao Zheng could be counted on one hand, although this guy sometimes seemed a bit stale to Lu Yao

, but considering the background of the times, Lu Yao understood that it would definitely not do any harm to him to be on good terms with Bao Zheng and the other three.

Then, there are people who have more of a superior-subordinate relationship with Lu Yao. Among them, the most typical ones are Chen Chen and Tang Xi. Let’s talk about Tang Xi first. She met Lu Yao by chance, which completely changed Tang Xi’s life.

Development trajectory, if it weren’t for Lu Yao, Tangxi would still be wandering around with a group of brothers in the outer city asking for food. But who would have thought that in just a short period of time, Tangxi would transform into Lu Yao’s housekeeper, and even become Lu Yao’s housekeeper.

Being able to participate in the management of the factory shows Lu Yao's trust in Tangxi.

As for Chen Chen, although Lu Yao selected Chen Chen when he was forming a team to participate in the new Cuju competition, through observation and communication, Lu Yao also felt that Chen Chen must be a malleable talent in the future.

In terms of relationship, these two people are actually the next level of Lu Yao. However, these two people have one thing in common.

They all come from the outer city of Bianliang.

In fact, for Lu Yao, his impression of the people in the outer city is better than that of the inner city. He has always felt that in the outer city, there are many capable people like Chen Chen and Tangxi. What they lack is more.

is an opportunity.

Compared with the pampered people in the inner city, people in the outer city appear to be more diligent and work harder. This is an indisputable fact.

Tangxi and Chen Chen also have another point in common, that is, they both have a repayment mentality towards Lu Yao, which is why Lu Yao values ​​the residents of the outer city.

As long as you are good to them, they will never forget your kindness, and this friendship will definitely repay you twice in the future. This is the tradition of ancient people. Our country has always been a human society. This has been true from ancient times to the present.

Not much has changed.

It’s just that I don’t know when the deep friendship in ancient times has turned into the so-called friendship of spending money or finding someone in modern times.

Of course, Lu Yao never thought that if he really wanted these two people to give him something very precious to repay him, he just had to do things well for himself.

In fact, when it comes to Lu Yao's friendship, there is actually another person, and that is Zhong Xing. Although this guy didn't have much contact with Lu Yao, he left a deep impression on Lu Yao. It's a pity that this guy

After the guy sold the land in the bank to Lu Yao, he went to the border. If you want to see him, you may have to wait for a while.

The so-called friends, not to mention being sarcastic, but they should also think about their friends before they can be considered friends. No, in fact, Pan Wen and Chen Chen who were walking on the road were still a little entangled at first as to whether they should go or not.

To Lu Mansion.

After all, both of them already knew that Lu Yao would be in seclusion starting from today to prepare for the imperial examination. Under normal circumstances, without any special incident happening, neither of them really wanted to disturb Lu Yao.

Yao’s study.

However, what happened today was so sudden that these two people still can't accept it until now.

From the perspective of Pan Wen and Chen Chen, when Zhao Zhen announced the news of the warm-up match, the two of them were surprised at first, and then secretly delighted. When they went to find Lu Yao before, they had never heard Lu Yao talk about it.

Regarding the warm-up match, that is to say, Lu Yao didn't know about the warm-up match at that time, and now Lu Yao has also retreated, which means that the idea of ​​​​the warm-up match was not Lu Yao's idea.

The reason for the secret joy is also very simple. For the two team leaders who are very interested in this new Cuju competition, since there is a warm-up match, it means that they have the opportunity to watch before the official competition starts.

It is a formal new Cuju competition. Through this competition, it can be said that there are too many things that can be learned. Especially for Chen Chen, it is actually not bad for Pan Wen. The players he found are actually good in physical fitness and comprehensive skills.

In terms of ability, they are all pretty good, but the grassroots team is different. None of them have actually heard of the word Cuju. Before this, this sport was regarded by them as an event that only the royal family can play. So they were actually allowed to participate in official competitions.

It is very necessary to watch a Cuju competition before.

However, before these two people could be happy for too long, Zhao Zhen announced a new rule, which was the day before the warm-up match between Han Yonghe's Wenyuan team and Cao Yan's Lions team, which was the last day.

On the first day of training, the four training teams corresponding to that day are Tigers, Fanlou, Grassroots and Huangtian. Among these four teams, two teams must be selected for another round.

The warm-up match, and according to the calculation of the schedule, is actually the first warm-up match in the true sense. After all, the Wenyuan team faces the Lions, and their match time is set in the last round.

On the last day of training, which was the fourteenth day, the identities were reversed, and now they had the opportunity to watch this warm-up match before their warm-up match started.

As soon as this news came out, both Chen Chen and Pan Wen were actually very worried. Their worries were from different angles. For Chen Chen, after the first training, he already knew the difference in strength between his team and the Huangtian Team.

gap, so in fact, this warm-up match will be a good opportunity for Chen Chen to improve the strength of his team, and to learn more experience before the official competition. This is where Chen Chen first stood

The reason why I came out to sign up for the first warm-up match.

As for Pan Wen, the reason why he finally decided to participate in the warm-up match is actually very simple. First of all, the other participating team must be formed among the Tigers and Fanlou. This is a must. And then, because

The reason why Uncle Liu was not present today, so the decision-making power can only be left to the hands of Pan Wen, the only leader present today. In order to avoid being gossiped about by others, and considering that Chen Chen's team is the opponent, Pan Wen's pressure

It was not that big anymore, so in the end Pan Wen decided to send his team to participate in the first warm-up match.

Even though these two people actually made a happy decision in front of Zhao Zhen, they actually had too many issues on their minds.

Naturally, the atmosphere of a friendly match between two people with a good relationship will definitely be much better than another warm-up match between the Cao family and the Han family to resolve personal grievances, and no matter who wins or loses in the end, they will not be against each other.

Calculate, this is certain.

However, after the two people left the palace, they became afraid again.

What level should you perform in this game? Are there any other ways to quickly increase the team's strength during training? How should you show your team's strength in front of the emperor?

There are too many problems that need to be solved by these two people. One of these two people is Pan Wen, a young man who does not know anything about the world. The other, although he works very hard, has nothing to do with his own level of education.

, children from poor families who didn’t pay any attention. To a certain extent, it was really difficult for them to think about strategies for the warm-up match.

In fact, the first idea of ​​the two of them was to find Zhe Katsuyuki to discuss their warm-up match. However, Zhe Katsuyuki also looked helpless, saying that although he was very good at training, he could do it during this period.

The training intensity of these two teams should be increased within the game, so that when the game comes, it should be more exciting. But the details of the game, including how to perform, are shown to Zhao Zhen. How could Zhe Katsuyuki, a straight man who can't turn, know these things?

After thinking about it, the two of them had no clue, and finally decided that although Lu Yao was still in retreat, they should still tell Lu Yao about the warm-up match and let him help come up with ideas.

In addition, the Han family has made a substitution, so it is actually necessary to tell Lu Yao.

After making up their mind, both of them knew that doing so would affect Lu Yao's studies, but they had no choice but to shamelessly walk towards the Lu Mansion.

Then, there was what happened before. Lu Xu closed his eyes and rested in the main hall, and got the news that Pan Wen and Chen Chen were visiting.

After listening to it one after another, they thought that Pan Wen and Chen Chen were both familiar with Lu Yao. It was impossible not to know that this boy was currently in retreat. And they came to Lu Mansion at this time because they had something they had to tell Lu Yao.

information.

Thinking of this, Lu Xu asked Uncle Fu to go to the door and brought the two people into the main hall, and Lu Xu himself began to think.

"What could it be?"

Lu Xu was thinking, while Pan Wen and Chen Chen were already brought over by Uncle Fu.

Originally, Pan Wen and Chen Chen thought that they would see Tangxi, so they were a little surprised when they saw Uncle Fu coming to open the door. After all, in Lu Mansion now, basically whenever Tangxi is there, it is Tangxi.

Come out to meet the guests.

The reason for this is also very simple, because in the past, although there were not many guests who came to Lu Mansion, there were always a few who came to visit every week. And at that time, the guests who wanted to see by name should be

It is the owner of the Lu Mansion, that is, Mr. Lu Xu. In fact, before Lu Yao traveled through time, basically every time someone from outside came to visit, Uncle Fu would go to the door to greet him and then send him in. This was done to reflect

The etiquette of the Lu family.

After all, before Tangxi appeared, Uncle Fu was the real butler of the Lu Mansion. The master did not need to come out to greet the guests, but having Uncle Fu lead the way also reflected the Lu Mansion's hospitality. However, since Lu Yao crossed over

After that, whether it was his status in this family, his status in the city, or even his status above the court, it can be said that he was now basically on par with Lu Xu, and even had the intention of catching up with Lu Xu.

And precisely because of this, more and more people came to the Lu Mansion to look for Lu Yao. Gradually, even if Lu Xu didn't say anything, the first reaction of everyone in the Lu Mansion when they saw someone coming was not to come to see the master, but to come to see the master.

I came to see Lu Yao.

After that, Tangxi successfully became a housekeeper under Lu Yao's promotion. Later, in the shift arrangement between him and Uncle Fu, Tangxi was assigned more positions to receive guests. Of course, the premise was that Tangxi was at home and guests were visiting.

when.

Speaking of which, Chen Chen didn't come to Lu Mansion many times, so aside from that, every time Pan Wen came to Lu Mansion, he was basically received by Tangxi. Today it was replaced by Uncle Fu, but Pan Wen was thinking

Somewhat secretly happy.

In Pan Wen's view, the fact that Uncle Fu came out to greet him today means that Tangxi must have been favored by Lu Yao, and his status is now different. Moreover, since Lu Yao is in retreat now, Uncle Fu may want to take him with him soon.

The person who went to meet was Tang Xi. After all, Pan Wen had been in contact with Tang Xi for a long time. Both of them were straight-tempered people with no fancy ideas, so they got along quite well during the conversation. It can be seen that Tang Xi's status has been improved now.

Pan Wen was naturally happy for his friend from the bottom of his heart.

It can only be said that although Pan Wen's current understanding is half-assed, he did guess it right, but it is not completely correct.

It is true that Tangxi has been promoted and has become a housekeeper in the Lu Mansion, but his status is not as high as Pan Wen imagined now. He is just on the same level as Uncle Fu. Moreover, Tangxi

Now he is Lu Yao's housekeeper and is only responsible for Lu Yao. However, Tangxi is still the same as before and has no authority to participate in the large and small affairs of the Lu Mansion. These matters are still in the hands of Uncle Fu, but he happened to catch up today

Such a special situation caused Pan Wen to have this illusion.

In the final analysis, Lu Yao was indeed negligent. He did not tell Pan Wen about Tangxi's promotion, which led to such a misunderstanding.

Not knowing anything, Chen Chen, who was a latecomer, saw Pan Wen walking towards the house with a smile on his side. He was confused and asked Pan Wen why he was laughing. Since Uncle Fu was walking in front,

Pan Wen thought that he couldn't talk about Tangxi in front of Uncle Fu, so he just found some excuse to excuse it.

However, when Uncle Fu brought these two people to the main hall and saw that the person sitting in the main hall was none other than Master Lu, Lu Xu, Pan Wen's smile froze on his face for an instant.

Chen Chen was naturally very scared. You must know that although Cao Yi and Han Yonghe held high positions in the court, not to mention Privy Councilor Han Qi. However, Chen Chen saw these

When they were young people, their identities were not high officials of the imperial court, but people on the same level as themselves, as leaders of a Cuju team. After Chen Chen accepted their identity, no matter in the palace

Faced with the saints in a group, or on the training ground, Chen Chen found that these people were no different from himself. Moreover, on the training ground, no matter what high official you were, you were not allowed to put on airs. However, the instructor Katsuyuki Katsuyuki never did it because of

What special treatment is given to you based on your status?

However, today is a little different. I came to see Lu Yao. Although I knew that he was in retreat, who knew that when he and Pan Wen came to visit today, it would be Lu Xu who came to greet him personally.

In Chen Chen's mind, Lu Xu was not at the same level as him, and he had not participated in any Cuju competitions. Therefore, the only identity that Chen Chen could think of for the person sitting in front of him now was that of the Minister of Household Affairs.

Because of this, Chen Chen felt extremely strong pressure coming towards him, and for a moment, he was a little at a loss.

Pan Wen was even more surprised. He had already thought about what kind of blessings he should say to Tangxi in private when he saw Tangxi later, but the result was not what he expected. Uncle Fu directly brought them to see him.

Lu Xu is here.

Then, Pan Wen's smile froze on his face.

Seeing the reaction of these two people, Lu Xu waved his hands and said, "Why, are you surprised to see me? Sit down and talk."

After hearing Lu Xu's voice, the two finally confirmed that it was indeed Lu Xu they were seeing. He Jian Tangxi's mentality changed drastically. The two immediately became respectful and cautious. Pan Wen

He nodded repeatedly, then pulled Tangxi and sat aside.

After sitting down, Lu Xu drank tea while observing the expressions of the two people.

As for Pan Wen and Chen Chen, they looked at each other in confusion. They didn't dare to take a sip of tea, let alone look at Lu Xu. In fact, for Pan Wen, what he was least good at was dealing with officials. In addition, he didn't dare to take a sip of tea.

, that was before Lu Yao traveled through time, and the two of them basically hung out together every day, so Lu Xu criticized Pan Wen a lot, so Pan Wen actually had the same attitude towards Lu Xu as he did towards Pan Yuanwu.

sense of fear.

Seeing that these two people said they were here to see Lu Yao, Lu Xu sat there for a long time without saying anything, so he cleared his throat and said, "Why, didn't you say you had something to say?"

When the two of them heard Lu Xu speak, they seemed to be inspired and immediately sat upright.

Pan Wen was the first to speak and said, "That's true. I wonder if Tangxi is here."

When Lu Xu heard this, he looked displeased and said to himself that the original plan of these two people was to come to Tangxi, so he said, "Why, Tangxi is not here, are you going back now?"

"We have absolutely no intention of doing this." Chen Chen said immediately.

Lu Xu said: "Tell me, and tell it to Tangxi, there is actually no difference. Speaking of Tangxi, he went out early this morning, and he went out with a carriage, saying he was in retreat in Luyao

I won’t come back until it’s over.”

After saying these words, Pan Wen and Chen Chen looked at each other, obviously not expecting that Lu Yao was in seclusion. According to normal logic, Tangxi should be helping Lu Yao handle things at home. How could he not be here so early this morning?

Did he leave? Moreover, he left in a carriage, which means that the place he went to must still be some distance away. What on earth was Tangxi planning?

"But where did Lu Yao let him go?" Pan Wen asked. In his opinion, Lu Xu should know where Tangxi went.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xu shook his head and said: "I don't know where Tangxi went. After all, he followed Lu Yao's instructions and didn't need to ask me for instructions. However, it seems that he went to the outer city. He didn't

Tell me what to do, maybe this is what Lu Yao told him not to tell me."

When Pan Wen heard what Lu Xu said, he felt relieved. It seems that Tangxi's status in the Lu family has indeed improved during this period. However, it has not reached what he imagined.

"Lu Yao, is he still in seclusion?" Chen Chen saw that Tang Xi was not here, so he could only ask about Lu Yao.

Lu Xu nodded and said, "Yes, since yesterday, except for going out to eat with my family during meals, I have basically been alone in my room at other times. After all, there are only a few days until the imperial examination."

Chen Chen and Pan Wen nodded quickly, but then they looked embarrassed. It seemed that they had a lot to say, but they couldn't say it out.

Lu Xu saw the two of them like this, so he said, "If you have any issues, you might as well tell them and I'll see if I can solve them. If it's really a big deal, I can help you convey it to Lu Yao."

These words completely shattered Pan Wen and Chen Chen's inherent impression of Lu Xu. They thought that Lu Yao had gone into seclusion. As Lu Yao's father, he was such a person who valued officialdom and career. This

Lu Xu should be aware of the importance of the imperial examination. Therefore, these two people originally thought that after this exchange, Lu Xu would eventually let someone send them out. However, they did not expect that Lu Xu turned out to be

With this attitude, it seems that the Minister of Household Affairs is not as difficult to communicate with as imagined.

What they don't know is that if it was before this, Lu Xu would definitely invite these two people back without saying a word, and maybe he would even scold them a few times when he was angry. But Lu Xu is different now.

, because he knew in his heart that what these two people were talking about when they came to the Lu Mansion must be related to the new Cuju competition, and apart from the imperial examination, Lu Yao had recently focused all his attention on this new Cuju competition, and he was invested in it.

He also has a lot of energy and hard work, and Lu Yao wants to improve the physical fitness of the whole people through this competition. Since he has decided to support his son, he must do what he says. This is the basis for Lu Xu's attitude change.

reason.

So, next, Pan Wen told Lu Xu what happened on the training ground after the morning session. Naturally, this included the Fanlou team and the Grassroots team who became the opponents of the first warm-up match.

, and Han Yonghe’s Wenyuan team secretly changed three players, which led to Zhao Zhen blaming the Cao family’s team.

Lu Xu listened carefully to the descriptions of the two men. After they finished talking about the matter, Lu Xu said: "So, do you want to tell Lu Yao about the substitutions of the Wenyuan team and your participation in the warm-up match?"

Pan Wen nodded and said: "We know that Lu Yao is in seclusion, so he may not know the news about the new Cuju competition at the first time. We have just decided on the warm-up competition today, so we thought

Come and tell Lu Yao."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Xu shook his head and said, "I guess it's not that simple."

Pan Wen was stunned and said quickly: "What do you mean by this?"

Lu Xu waved his hand and said: "This matter of the warm-up match has already been decided by the emperor, so there will be no changes. Even if Lu Yao knows now, there is actually no difference from what he knew after the retreat. It has been determined

Good things, Lu Yao can't change it. What's more, it was Lu Yao who proposed adding one more warm-up match. I think you all know this, so if you come to Lu Mansion to cancel this warm-up match,

I don’t think you are that stupid. The substitution of players in the Wenyuan team is rather unusual. I have never heard Lu Yao talk about it. I guess he doesn’t know that Han Yonghe is behind this.

However, now that the lineup and team members have been determined, it sounds like the emperor has already acquiesced to the Han family's team members, so there is nothing that can be changed. If it is just to tell Lu Yao these two pieces of news, I don't think you really need to go here.

Once you come here, you must have other things to ask Lu Yao for help."

After Lu Xu said these words, both Pan Wen and Chen Chen felt that Lu Xu had a sense of admiration in their hearts. Sure enough, how could it be that Lu Xu had been serving as the Minister of Household Affairs for nothing for so many years? How could Lu Xu learn from these two people?

The posture and expression that appeared in front of him as soon as he entered the door, coupled with the expression when he spoke just now, already noticed that these two guys must have something to ask Lu Yao for help, and this matter must have something to do with them today.

There is a direct relationship between the two teams being selected as the teams for the warm-up match. Otherwise, they would not have chosen to go to the Lu Mansion and embark on such a journey after knowing that Lu Yao had begun to retreat.

"It seems that nothing can be hidden from Uncle Lu." Pan Wen smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, we are here today for two things."

Lu Xu nodded, thinking that Pan Wen was a very honest guy. He didn't panic when he exposed his lie. It seemed that his son's best friend was not as useless as he thought.

"But it doesn't matter."

Pan Wen continued: "One of them is the warm-up match. I won't go into too much detail about why our two teams were chosen for the warm-up match and the reasons why we signed up. We would like to ask Lu Yao for advice.

The question is, how can we play well in this warm-up match?"

"What do you mean..."

Chen Chen said: "In terms of training, we will definitely do a good job, but even so, how can we make the game exciting and satisfy the emperor? This is another meaning of the warm-up match. And for this reason, we are here today.

The second reason why I came to find Lu Yao is to ask for advice. Maybe our team is far behind the Huangtian team or the Goshawk team. Is it possible to narrow this gap in a short time?

Or should we use other aspects to make up for our shortcomings?"

Pan Wen took over and said, "The third reason is actually very common. That is, regarding the replacement of Han family members, I want to ask Lu Yao what he thinks and see if he knows about it."

Lu Xu observed the expressions of these two people when they were talking just now, and they were very serious.

He thought for a moment and then said: "I probably understand. I really didn't expect it before. I originally thought that the emperor wouldn't be too interested in this new type of Cuju, so I left everything to Lu Yao. But now it seems,

I was wrong, the emperor attaches great importance to this new Cuju and this warm-up match."

Chen Chen nodded and said: "Well, because of this, the two of us feel that it is necessary to discuss with Lu Yao how to prepare next. Although this competition will definitely be held, the warm-up match will be held by the emperor when the time comes.

Go and watch in person. If you don't perform well then, you might be punished, and the training for the past half month will be in vain."

Pan Wen also added: "Yes, except for the warm-up matches, the other teams are actually relatively strong. We feel that there are some gaps that cannot be made up at all, so we want to ask Lu Yao to see if there are any other

The method, although somewhat opportunistic, is suspected.”

Lu Xu thought for a while and said: "It's normal for you to have such worries. Alas, I originally thought that I could help you with these problems. But it seems that the problems you encountered require someone who is very proficient in Cuju.

If someone comes to answer it, they can only ask Lu Yao, what should I do?"

Pan Wen and Chen Chen also sighed. Originally, they were thinking that when they arrived at the Lu Mansion today, they found Tangxi, told him the problem, and asked him to pass it on to Lu Yao. After Lu Yao finished speaking, he would ask Tangxi to pass it on to him. This shouldn't happen.

It delayed Lu Yao's retreat. But who would have thought that Tangxi would leave the Lu Mansion again today. Although Lu Xu intended to help him, he did not understand this new Cuju thing thoroughly.

On Lu Xu's side, after thinking about it, he finally came up with a compromise.

"Let's do this. You go back first, and then come to the Lu Mansion during dinner. Fight for it, and I will ask Lu Yao to solve the problem for you at the dinner table."

When Pan Wen and Chen Chen heard this, they were naturally very happy. Pan Wen immediately said that he would ask Fan Lou's chef to cook some good dishes and deliver them over in the evening.
