Rich people can be willful, and people with power can also be willful.
If Li Muyang was an ambitious person, and the emperor of a country issued such an invitation to you, and said that he would make your family one of the top families of the Kingdom, would you be tempted?
Li Muyang was not an ambitious person, but he was still tempted.
Li Muyang was not an immortal, how would he not want his family to become stronger. Not to mention become one of the great clans that would affect the direction of the Kingdom, but at least he could not be casually bullied.
He had been bullied for so many years, and he did not want his descendants to experience what he had endured.
Rare treasures, cultivation techniques, as well as all kinds of spirit stones and pills, these were all essential items for cultivators.
This was also the reason why many cultivation geniuses were willing to attach themselves to famous sects or a certain force, because they had a rich reserve and occupied the mountains and rivers with the most abundant spiritual qi. It could be said that in many aspects, they were in a monopoly position.
For ordinary people to cultivate was as difficult as ascending to heaven.
To quickly improve and break through the realm, to chase after the stars and the moon and run ahead of peers or everyone else, there were too many factors that needed to be met.
There were very few people like Li Muyang who was struck by lightning at birth.
After all, lightning also has eyes, and not all bad people would be struck — —
There were some things that the West Wind Emperor Chu Xianda could give, but Lu Xingkong could not.
Chu Xianda saw that Li Muyang was tempted, waving the little hoe even more vigorously. "I know you are on good terms with the Lu Family, but you should not know the process of the rise of the Lu Family, right? The Lu Family started in Wind City, and the head of the Lu Family was originally just a little general at the border. Later, he followed Emperor Taizong to battle all over the country, and made countless military achievements. Now as you can see, the Lu Family is the top family of my West Wind Kingdom — — "
Chu Xianda looked at Li Muyang and laughed heartily, giving off an extremely confident and indisputable feeling. "Muyang is a young hero, and is very similar to the ancestor of the Lu Clan. Who knows when he will be bestowed the title of King and General, and bring the Li family to a height that will attract the attention of the world. "
With a simple and honest smile, Li Muyang said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I am a very simple person, so my thoughts are also very simple. I was born and grew up in West Wind. It was only right for him to serve the empire. Besides, the Empire has given the Lu Family unparalleled favor, and the Lu Family has taken good care of me and treated us like family … The Lu Family is serving the Empire and His Majesty. I will also serve the empire and His Majesty. "
Lu Xingkong said with a smile on his face, "This child, it's obviously our Lu Family that owes him a great favor, but he's being so polite, as if he owes us something. What we've done are insignificant things. "
Chu Xianda's face turned a little ugly.
Who mentioned the Lu Family to you? Who asked you to mention the Lu Family?
First the Lu Family, then the imperial family. This was the answer that Li Muyang gave to Chu Xianda.
Chamberlain Li Fu, seeing that His Majesty's face did not look good, hurriedly smiled and tried to smooth things over. "Your Majesty, the tea is cold, drink some tea to moisten your throat. It's cold and gloomy, you have to drink more water. "
Chu Xianda picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, looked at Li Muyang and said, "Muyang is still young, in the future you will experience more, you will understand that making choices is the most test of wisdom."
Li Muyang bowed to express his gratitude. "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your teachings, Muyang will certainly work hard to cultivate, and live up to Your Majesty's expectations."
Chu Xianda was too lazy to talk to Li Muyang.
He looked like a smart kid, but why was he such an idiot when it came to dealing with people?
Li Muyang knew that his answer had made the Emperor unhappy, but if he was too happy, then the Lu Family would not be happy.
This stupid Emperor was trying to poach him in public, if he accepted the recruitment, where would Grandfather Lu put his face? Where would the Lu Family put their face? And what would the old generals of the Lu Family think?
From an emotional point of view, Li Muyang was naturally biased towards the Lu Family.
Besides, he was too outstanding, and so good-looking. Chu Xianda thought, hey, this kid is not bad, come, I'll give you a daughter, you can be my son-in-law — — Wouldn't things be bad?
Li Muyang and Li Shinian exchanged a glance, and the two quietly stood in the crowd.
Standing in front of the Emperor was too dazzling, they both liked to keep a low profile.
Although they were already in the limelight.
A youngster who defeated the God of Sword of West Wind and was recruited by the Emperor, and a little girl who was secretly accepted as a disciple by one of the seven Taoist spiritual masters, Taoist spiritual master Ziyang — — Was the Li family's ancestral grave emitting green smoke?
Just then, the steward outside the door loudly announced: "Prince Fu is here."
"Prince Fu is also here?" Chu Xianda laughed. "Prince Fu is always playing chicken and walking dogs, riding horses and listening to plays, I was worried that he would forget that today is the birthday of Defence minister. That boy is considerate. "
Lu Xingkong was not at all surprised that Prince Fu would come. Since the Emperor of a country had come, the other spectators should also know to make a choice, right?
Lu Xingkong laughed aloud. "Prince Fu has come to congratulate me on my birthday, it is really an honour. Your Majesty, please sit down, I will go out to greet you. "
Chu Xianda grabbed Lu Xingkong's sleeve. "Defence minister, please sit down. You are an important minister of the country, and also his elder. Today is your birthday, he naturally has to come and pay his respects to you. "
"Your Majesty, this is not proper etiquette."
"What I said is proper etiquette."
"Yes. Your Majesty. "
Prince Fu was clad in a purple robe and a vermilion jade crown. His face was elegant and his posture calm.
In a world of ice and snow, he was waving his' rare muddle-headed 'paper fan as he walked, looking romantic — — silly.
When Prince Fu came into the courtyard, he bowed to Lu Xingkong, and a hearty smile spread throughout the small courtyard. "It's Lord Lu's 60th birthday, I came late, please don't blame Lord Lu. I'll punish myself with three cups of wine. "
Lu Xingkong got up, stretched out his hand, and said with a smile: "Prince Fu coming is giving me a lot of face. How can I blame you? I'll toast Prince Fu in a while. "
"How would I dare to accept an elder's toast?" Prince Fu said with a smile. "Of course I'll toast Lord Lu."
Then he bowed to Chu Xianda and said with a smile: "Greetings Elder Brother, I didn't expect Elder Brother to come first. I was thinking of going to the palace to wait with Elder Brother. "
"You lazy thing, it's good that you remembered Defence Minister's birthday." Chu Xianda pointed to Prince Fu and said with a smile: "You came at the right time, I'm not good at drinking, in a while you toast Defence Minister on my behalf."
"Yes, Elder Brother." Prince Fu said with a smiling face.
Prince Fu turned to look at the youngster behind him, saying: "Chu Xun, why are you getting more and more rude? Hurry up and kowtow to Duke Lu. "
Prince Fu did not come alone, he came with his son Chu Xun.
Chu Xun was still holding a brocade box in his hand, when he heard his father's words, he knelt down to pay his respects to Lu Xingkong: "I wish Grandpa Lu a long life of a crane and a long life of an ancient cypress."
Presenting the gift in his hand, he said with a smile: "Grandpa Lu, this is a little gift that my father prepared for Grandpa Lu, please accept it."
Lu Xingkong personally received the gift, looking at Chu Xun with a look of appreciation. "The little boy of the past has now grown into an elegant and handsome youngster. Talented in both literature and martial arts, famous outside. Prince Fu is so lucky. "
Chu Xun said with a humble face, "Grandpa Lu is too kind."
Lu Xingkong handed the gift to the housekeeper behind him, stretched out his hand to pull Chu Xun up, saying: "No praise, this is the truth. Little Prince's good name had spread all over Tiandu a few years ago, and now that he has been admitted to Starry Sky Academy, he has been cultivating in a place like a celestial immortal's cave, his progress is even more rapid. The Chu clan has many outstanding talents, and this boy is even more outstanding. "
When these words of praise came out, Chu Xianda's face did not look good, and Prince Fu's face did not look good either.
Chu Xianda had more than a dozen sons and dozens of daughters. When he had nothing to do, he would find some people to do it.
In addition to Chu Kai, Chu Jiang, Chu Tuo, Chu Li, Chu Ye, these Princes who had already grown up, there were also many little Princes who had not grown up. Lu Xingkong said 'this boy is even more outstanding', did he mean that the other Princes were not as good as Chu Xun?
Prince Fu was even more depressed. What was the most taboo for an Emperor? The most taboo was that someone coveted his throne.
Lu Xingkong, this old man's words of praise simply pushed his family to the opposite side of the Emperor. If his son was better than the Emperor's son, then who would sit on the throne in the future?
Was there such a blatant act of flattery?
The most terrible thing was that he could not fly into a rage in public, because Lu Xingkong was' praising 'his son.
He also could not defend himself. If he tried to defend himself in front of his Imperial Brother, wouldn't that make this Big Brother look very Xiaoxin? Although it was true that he looked very Xiaoxin. Because he looked very Xiaoxin, so you can't say that he looked very Xiaoxin.
Chu Xianda had just tricked Lu Xingkong, but Lu Xingkong had turned around and returned the favor. The old man was clearly a tough person who refused to eat a little loss.
Chu Xun was the most convenient to speak. He was neither arrogant nor impatient, looking at Lu Xingkong and said, "Grandpa Lu is too kind. There are countless strong people in Starry Sky, outstanding people. I'm just an ordinary person in Starry Sky. When I first came to Starry Sky, several elder brothers gave me a lot of help, and I benefited a lot. Even Imperial Sister Chu Ning cared for me in every possible way, Xun has always been grateful. Without them, it would be difficult for me to adapt to Starry Sky. "
When these words came out, Chu Xianda's face finally looked a lot kinder, looking at Chu Xun with admiration. "Chu Xun must not belittle yourself, the men of my Chu clan are heroic and have their own extraordinary points. You are very good, but you should continue to work hard. Brothers should work together, so that the foundation of my Chu clan can last for thousands of years. "
"Yes, Uncle." Chu Xun bowed.
Lu Xingkong looked at Chu Xun with a smile. "Chu Xun came at the right time today. Come, I'll introduce you to a young hero, you two are old friends."
Lu Xingkong beckoned to Li Muyang in the crowd. "Muyang, come see your classmate Starry Sky."
Li Muyang sighed softly, came out from the crowd, and gave a cupped fist salute to Chu Xun. "Brother Chu Xun, long time no see."
Chu Xun also gave a cupped fist salute to Li Muyang, looking at Li Muyang with a deep and serene look in his eyes, and said with a smile, "Yes. It's been a long time. You disappeared for many days, everyone thought you were dead — — I didn't expect you to be alive. It's really surprising. "
Li Muyang nodded seriously. "Yes. I'm not only alive, but I'm living very well — — "
He stepped forward and clasped Chu Xun's hand, as though they were very close brothers, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I've disappointed Brother Chu Xun, I'm very happy."
