The next day passed peacefully. On the third day after arriving in the capital, Wang Zhuoqing, the right minister of the Ministry of War, sent someone to deliver the invitation and went to attend a party at Wang Shilang's house in the evening.
In addition, the person who sent the invitation also reminded Luo Chong: Yesterday, the third lady of the household minister's family was asking about you everywhere, and even sent someone to the Ministry of War to inquire about your military exploits this time.
The Ministry of Revenue is in charge of money. The emperor is so obsessed with money nowadays. The position of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue is not ordinary. He must be the emperor's most trusted confidant.
The third lady of the household minister¡¯s family is asking about Luo Chong?
You don¡¯t need to guess, it must be the third young master who had a fight on the street the day before yesterday and was disguised as a man. No wonder she is so arrogant, her father is the Minister of the Ministry of Finance.
Luo Chong didn't pay much attention. He stayed in the room all day and didn't go anywhere. He went out alone in the evening, without even the white tiger guard.
??When attending gatherings of the Taiping Holy Sect, it is better to be more secretive. It's not that I don't believe Xia Ningyu, but I don't want her to think in confusion, it's not necessary.
However, this party was quite boring. What surprised Luo Chong was that he did not meet the leader of the Taiping Holy Sect. He only met a few ministers in the court, and the lowest ranking one was a third-grade servant.
During the dinner, Wang Zhuoqing also hinted: These people here all have real power, and they have to deal with various departments frequently on weekdays. If General Luo has anything to do, just let everyone know, and everything can be handled flexibly.
In addition, he also hinted: There are people with higher official positions further up, but they have high positions and power, and their every move will attract the attention of many people, and may even reach the ears of the emperor. Therefore, it is definitely inconvenient for them to attend a gathering like today.
¡°To sum up, I want to tell Luo Chong: The Taiping Sect is very powerful in the court, and General Luo must not underestimate us.
????????????? Then there is the extremely boring social interaction, everyone is looking for something to talk about, and there is no need to describe the process.
After the dinner, everyone else said goodbye and left. Only Luo Chong was invited to his back garden by Wang Zhuoqing, and then he saw a lady wearing a purple dress.
¡°I feel like I¡¯m in my thirties, but my real age is definitely much older than this number.
She stood quietly in the pavilion by the small lake. She hadn't turned around yet and couldn't see her face, but Luo Chong had already guessed that she must be the contemporary leader of the Taiping Holy Religion.
It¡¯s not surprising. Those people at the dinner table just now were just her subordinates or disciples, so they were definitely not suitable for sitting together and talking nonsense. The quiet atmosphere at this moment was more suitable for meeting Luo Chong.
Before reaching the pavilion, Wang Zhuoqing bowed and bowed from a distance before retreating. She and Luo Chong were the only ones left in the garden. No one spoke for the time being, and the subtle chirping of insects in the grass was quite clear to his ears.
When Luo Chong approached, she turned around slowly, and the face she revealed was actually the same as
"You and Su Wancheng are biological sisters?"
Luo Chong asked this, but he already had the exact answer in his heart, and it was impossible for a mortal to get it wrong.
In terms of beauty alone, she is slightly worse than Su Wancheng. She does not have the air of a fairy, but is more dignified, calm and noble. It should be said that she is on par with her.
She nodded: "I am my sister, Su Wanqiu."
Luo Chong had already entered the pavilion and sat down directly on the stone bench. She also sat down gracefully. They are not ordinary people, there is no need to engage in those hypocritical etiquette.
Then she took the initiative to add: "Wan Cheng doesn't know my identity as the Taiping leader. We became disciples of each other when we were a few years old. There is only an unbroken blood bond between the sisters, but they rarely interact with each other on weekdays."
Luo Chong could guess without asking that the reason why the two sisters rarely interacted with each other was not because they had a weak relationship, but because her identity as the Taiping leader could not be revealed, so she had no choice but to be cruel and deliberately alienate her sister.
The elder sister tried every means to destroy the Jin Dynasty, and the younger sister Su Wancheng was obviously still a patriot. There was a big difference in concepts. Being too close might eventually lead to the tragedy of the breakup of the family relationship. It was better to stay distant and still have a part in my heart. Missing.
" However, these are other people's private matters and have nothing to do with him. There is no need to ask too much. Luo Chong nodded silently and let the topic go.
"Thank you for not hurting them."
Su Wanqiu's thank you refers to the two great masters who once fell into the clutches of the devil. Speaking of which, after they came back alive, their temperaments have changed a lot, especially the second master, who no longer has the arrogance and arrogance of the past. , obviously have a sense of awe for this world.
She has grown up and matured, no matter what she has experienced before, this is not a bad thing.
"You're welcome."
LuoChong waved his hand: "To put it nicely, their lives were exchanged for hundreds of war horses. To put it harshly, you don't mind. I don't care about their life or death at all. Kill them or let them go, basically." no difference."
"Yes, I have never seen, or even heard of, someone as scary as you in the world."
Su Wanqiu laughed at himself: "I have wanted to see you for a long time, but I have always been a little afraid. To be honest, I have prepared all the funeral arrangements before we meet tonight."
When facing an unfathomable guy, it is still necessary to be just in case.
Luo Chong smiled and asked, "Will the next leader be the Second Master?"
"Yes, she has grown up enough to take on this responsibility."
After saying this, Su Wanqiu joked again: "But now that I really face you, I don't think it's so scary. It seems that I can still hold the position of leader for a few more years."
"That's not necessarily the case."
Luo Chong said: "I can't even guess what I will do next second."
Then he asked her again: "I feel that your cultivation strength is much stronger than that of Su Wancheng. She is also one of the masters. Based on this calculation, you should not be much worse than Guitian Shu, who is known as the best in the world. ?¡±
¡°I have competed with him before, and I can say that I am on par with him.¡±
Su Wanqiu did not hide anything and replied truthfully: "But no third party knew. That time, he and I just met by chance."
Luo Chong nodded: "Yes, tied for first in the world."
"How dare you."
Su Wanqiu waved her hand gently: "In front of you, the so-called number one in the world is just a joke."
The two great masters had already told her how terrifying Luo Chong was. Although she still didn¡¯t know what Luo Chong¡¯s methods were, she was certain that even if she were herself, she wouldn¡¯t be able to withstand even one of his attacks.
How could there be such a terrible person in the world? Why would he take the road of leading troops to fight? This was something Su Wanqiu couldn't figure out no matter how much he thought about it.
I came to see him today just hoping to find out.
Luo Chong knew what she was thinking and was too lazy to talk nonsense, so he took the initiative to express his attitude: "I will choose a person and support him to overthrow the Jin Dynasty and establish a new dynasty, but I will never accept foreigners such as Qingyuan Kingdom or Jinxia Kingdom. In that case , most of the people in this land will become slaves and second-class citizens."
Su Wanqiu then asked: "Has the candidate been decided yet?"
"not yet."
Luo Chong shook his head: "You can recommend one, as long as he is from the Jin Dynasty and has about the same moral character and ability."
Su Wanqiu was slightly stunned. How could he be so casual about such an important thing?
However, she still tentatively replied: "Do you know the only living king of a different surname in the Jin Dynasty?"
"This generation's Kaiping King Zhou Xuanhao?"
Luo Chong has heard of this name.
There were many kings with different surnames in the Jin Dynasty, but they were all granted posthumous title after their death. It was impossible to give them the title of prince while they were alive.
Only the first generation King Kaiping, who was the sworn brother of the founding emperor, could be said to have contributed half of the credit for conquering the country. However, King Kaiping was extremely loyal and firmly supported his eldest brother as emperor from the very beginning. It can be said that no one was able to do so. A little bit different.
"Moreover, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, he very wisely retired to the second line and enjoyed a happy life, without caring about anything, which made the founding emperor quite reassured and without the slightest suspicion.
In order to thank this good brother, the founding emperor gave him a hereditary title of prince. As long as the Zhou family has no unforgivable disobedience, he can be hereditary from generation to generation.
If Luo Chong is willing to use his divine calculation skills, he can figure out that last time at the dock in Lingyun County, someone invited him to be a guest on a passenger ship, and the host who sent the invitation was the first generation King of Kaiping, Zhou Xuanhao.
"Do you think he can do it?" Luo Chong asked.
"He has this talent and virtue, and he also has this prestige."
Su Wanqiu replied softly: "If the only king with a different surname participates in the fight for the world, his appeal will definitely be stronger than others."
"good."
Luo Chong waved his hand: "It's him!"
"What do you mean it's him?" Su Wanqiu had a weird expression, thinking to herself, this is too casual. You can confirm this without even meeting him?
Luo Chong smiled and explained: "I think this kind of thing is much easier than going on a blind date. Anyway, you don't have to live with him, so it's almost enough."
What theory is this?
Su Wanqiu wanted to say: If he becomes the emperor of the new dynasty, how important is the relationship between you as a minister, how can you live at home?Comparable.
"How about it?"
Luo Chong said: "In this way, there won't be any conflicts between us, right?"
¡°I agree with all the candidates you mentioned for the new emperor, so what else can your Taiping Holy Sect be dissatisfied with.
"This is not a question of dissatisfaction."
Su Wanqiu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I just can't accept it Why does this matter feel so childish?"
"That's because your mentality is too heavy."
Luo Chong¡¯s tone was also extremely casual: ¡°To me, this is just a game. Whoever becomes the emperor is none of my business!¡±
"never mind!"
Su Wanqiu could only express helplessness: "It is enough to reach a consensus with you. As for your attitude towards life, it is really not something that we people can understand."
As an expert, today, she finally saw what it means to be a higher expert. She has reached a level that is completely unfathomable
"So be it."
Luo Chong stood up: "Find a time and let King Kaiping come to see me and act out the historical story of visiting the thatched cottage three times."
The story of "Three Visits to the Thatched Cottage" definitely does not exist in this world, but Su Wanqiu understands its meaning.
"It's nothing to ask you three times to express your sincerity." However, you have the nerve to say it so openly. Isn't this too shameless?
