Chapter 187: The Wrong Friend

Li Changge came to the signing room that originally belonged to Qi Xuansu. In fact, there were not many documents. Qi Xuansu even spent very little time here, so Qi Xuansu did not hand over to Li Changge again here.

Li Changge looked around the signing room and could not see any Qi Xuansu style. It can be seen that Qi Xuansu did not move at all and basically kept the original appearance. Obviously, Qi Xuansu knew that he would not stay in this position for too long and was too lazy to spend time thinking about it.

At this time, Lu Yujue hesitated to speak, and his face was embarrassed.

Li Changge saw it with his peripheral vision and turned around and asked: "Assistant Lu, do you have something to do?"

Lu Yujue glanced at Shen Yubing.

Li Changge understood and ordered: "Assistant Shen, you go and get busy first."

Shen Yubing was very tactful and led the others out, leaving only two people.

Lu Yujue then said: "Chief, I want to take a leave."

Li Changge did not speak, but just looked at Lu Yujue.

Lu Yujue continued, "I shouldn't have asked for leave at this time, but it's my family's business, the chief should know about it."

Li Changge pondered and said, "I know, can you handle it later?"

Lu Yujue said, "Now many people in Beichen Hall know about this matter, chief, put yourself in my shoes, haven't I lost enough face?"

Li Changge also found it difficult.

As a son of aristocratic family, you have to live with dignity. It is not an empty statement to die for face and suffer in life. If you lose your dignity, you will lose everything. Even if you become a real person, you will be pointed at by others - even he, who was cuckolded, is still a real person, and he has no temper when he is cuckolded.

For a son of aristocratic family.

Being cuckolded is not scary, but it is scary to make everyone know about it.

It is not scary if everyone knows about it, but it is scary to let others know that you dare not retaliate and swallow your anger and become a cuckold.

In short, if you can cover it up, cover it up. At worst, you can play your own games. If you can't cover it up, retaliate. The only thing you are afraid of is that you can't cover it up and can't retaliate, and your reputation will be ruined.

A woman's weakness is not necessarily a bad thing, and she can also get sympathy from others.

Men who are associated with the word "weak" will only be bullied.

Women who are betrayed by their husbands will get sympathy from outsiders, and others will help women scold the unfaithful man, because they assume that women are weak.

Men who are betrayed by their wives will only be ridiculed by outsiders.

The reason given by Lu Yujue is very reasonable. He must deal with this matter. Whether it is to cover it up or divorce, he must have an attitude and cannot continue to be a cuckold.

Li Changge cannot refuse emotionally and rationally. He can only ask Lu Yujue to deal with it later, rather than not deal with it.

Lu Yujue's attitude is very tough: "Do you want to delay it until next year? By then, everything will be too late."

Li Changge asked again: "Why now?"

Lu Yujue said: "Because Master Qi is also going back to Yujing, I can just take a ride on the boat. The chief is not suspected that there is something going on between Master Qi and me, right?"

Lu Yujue's frankness actually relieved some of Li Changge's suspicions.

However, Li Changge still did not agree. He was not suspicious, he just did not like risks. Lu Yujue did not conspire with Qi Xuansu, which did not mean that Lu Yujue gave up revenge on Li Minghuang. These were two different things.

Seeing Li Changge's firm attitude, Lu Yujue simply expressed his attitude: "If the chief does not agree, then I will have to submit my resignation to the chief. At most, I will be an idler in the mountains in the future, which is better than being so depressed now."

At this point, Li Changge was helpless.

Qi Xuansu was able to suppress it, not because Qi Xuansu was more majestic than Li Changge, but because Qi Xuansu promised to help Lu Yujue take revenge and let Lu Yujue be patient for a while, so Lu Yujue endured it. Now Li Changge stood on the Li family's position and could not make such a promise, so Lu Yujue naturally could not bear it.

Li Changge sighed: "Okay, I'll grant you leave. I hope you can go and come back quickly and don't act impulsively."

Lu Yujue looked at Li Changge deeply: "Thank you for your understanding, Chief."

The next day, Lu Yujue appeared on Qi Xuansu's flying boat.

Qi Xuansu was not surprised, this was something they had agreed on in advance.

In addition to Qi Xuansu and Deputy Hall Master Xu, Wu Niang was also on the flying boat. With Wu Niang's escort, Qi Xuansu was not afraid of the previous accident. He was sitting on the flying boat and singing, and suddenly the flying boat broke.

Qi Xuansu had thought about it. When he became the head of the Wanxiang Taoist Palace, Lu Yujue could be an assistant. It happened that Qi Xuansu had previously got rid of an assistant in the Wanxiang Taoist Palace, and the vacancy was still there.

Wanxiang Taoist Palace is the private reserve of Shi Da Zhenren. Shi Da Zhenren not only values ​​Qi Xuansu very much, but also indulges Qi Xuansu a little, just because Qi Xuansu was born in Wanxiang Taoist Palace, which is his own child in every sense. The other few, Zhang Yuelu was from Shangqing Palace, Li Changge was from Qingling Palace, Yao Pei was from Wuxu Palace, these are all outsiders.

Factionalism has penetrated every corner of Taoism.

On the other hand, after the incident in Nanyang, Zhang Yuelu sent Xiao Yin to Yujing to avoid involving her again.

So Xiao Yin moved into Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu's new home, and immediately became a bully here, because no one could control Xiao Yin, Lao Qi was not there, Lao Zhang was not there, Qi Niang was not there, and even Lao Lin stayed in Nanyang.

There are indeed many people left in Taishangfang, including people from the Zhang family and the two old couples who have followed Zhang Yuelu for a long time, but how can these people control Xiao Yin, the little bully. Xiao Yin has never been a good child. Some girls with weak temperaments will even be manipulated by the servants around them, but Xiao Yin controls you, do you think you are Lao Zhang?

After all, Xiao Yin had learned the truth of "you have hurt me" early on, and deeply understood who the source of power is, and power is only responsible to the source of power.

So Qi Xuansu's new home suffered, and Xiao Yin often ran in front, and a group of people shouted "little ancestor" and chased behind.

After a few days, these people realized a reality that they could not control this little ancestor, and let him do whatever he wanted.

So Xiao Yin walked out of the house and started walking around the streets.

It's just that Taishangfang is a place that is notoriously deserted. Many Taoist bigwigs have purchased family businesses here, but these Taoist bigwigs don't live here most of the time. Most of them work in other places, live in Taoist mansions, and live in Taoist palaces.

Xiao Yin often wandered around for a long time, but didn't see anyone, and was very lonely.

There was also a person who was equally lonely, Princess Chiying.

She grew up in the Imperial Capital since she was a child. People in the royal family didn't have many friends, and even if they had a few friends, they were all in the Imperial Capital.

After Princess Chiying was betrothed to Li Changge, she followed Li Changge to Yujing. Although she lived in Xuanyuanfang, which was a gathering place for people from the court, such as Lei Xiaohuan, who lived here in the past and moved away until she married Pei Xiaolou, these people also joined the Taoist sect, just like Lei Xiaohuan, and were separated by a layer.

Princess Chiying felt very lonely. Although Yujing was bustling, she felt like a stranger in a foreign land, out of tune with the surroundings.

Until she accidentally discovered the little girl who broke into Yujing and caused a gust of wind in Taishangfang.

It seemed to be called Qi Xiaoyin.

When Princess Chiying was bored, she liked to be alone in the watchtower, watching the little girl running in and out from a distance, leaving a group of people helpless.

Every time at this time, Princess Chiying would always show a knowing smile.

What the little girl was doing was exactly what she wanted to do but didn't dare to do.

The royal etiquette, royal dignity, and royal rules were all her constraints.

Li Changge always came and went in a hurry, and was busy every day.

Many times, others would compare Li Changge with Qi Xuansu, and naturally they would compare her with Zhang Yuelu.

Princess Chiying was very curious, how did Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu get along?

Li Changge was very busy, and the two were also very busy.

In any case, at least she was not busy, and could accommodate Li Changge, and they would always meet when Li Changge was free.

But Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were different, maybe when you were free, I was not free, and when I was free, you were not free.

How should they get along?

There were rumors outside that the two had a very good relationship and were a match made in heaven.

She was skeptical at first, but after the incident in Nanyang, Qi Xuansu rushed back immediately, proving that this statement did not seem to be false.

Princess Chiying was not the kind of princess who was strong and meddled in politics, but was a bit naive.

This was not surprising.

The lower class was cunning, because if they were not cunning, they would have difficulty surviving and would not be able to live. This is the biggest helplessness.

Families at the bottom cannot raise innocent children, let alone innocent hearts. The pressure and cruelty of life will force people to grow up.

Only those families that are rich enough can raise some innocent children who are ignorant of the world.

People born in the royal family tend to go to two extremes. One is extreme precocity. Under the influence of what they see and hear, they will play tricks and see through people's hearts early. The other is extreme innocence, not knowing the suffering, nor the evil of human hearts.

Princess Chiying is the emperor's favorite daughter. His Majesty protects her too well, so that she still retains some innocence.

This is different from Zhang Yuelu. Zhang Yuelu is what she is today because no one protects her.

Princess Chiying sees the mountain as a mountain, and Zhang Yuelu sees the mountain as a mountain.

So Princess Chiying did not think more deeply. She only saw the feelings between Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu, and then said to Li Changge: Master Qi knows how to feel sorry for his Taoist partner.

Li Changge obviously did not think so, and he disagreed with Princess Chiying's opinion. If the two had not known each other since childhood, Li Changge would have sneered.

This also made the two of them speechless most of the time.

What else can be said about the difference in thinking?

Not everyone is like Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu, who can share the same ideals and walk side by side.

Huangfu Ji said that he envied Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu, and Li Changge might not be the same.

This also made Princess Chiying feel more lonely.

Because of loneliness, she had to go to see the little girl every day. This was her only comfort in her lonely time. At first, she looked at her from a distance on the watchtower, and then she began to look closer, just on the way that the little girl had to pass.

Finally, she plucked up the courage, stopped the little girl, and asked her if they could be friends?

The little girl tilted her head and looked at her for a while, and nodded in agreement.

So she invited the little girl to her home, but the little girl could not sit still and wanted to take her out to play.

The two secretly left Taishangfang, went to Taiqing City, went to Xiabafang, and even left Yujing, went to Yuzhu Peak, and went to Xingxiu Sea.

Princess Chiying didn't dare to tell Li Changge about these things, as they were her own secrets.

In a corner unknown to Qi Xuansu and Li Changge, two people who should not have met became friends.
