reborn dandy

The spring breeze blows from outside the pass to the center of Beijing. Just after the New Year, thousands of families are celebrating.

Genius Ma Liang, Chang'an Street is full of pedestrians and it is very noisy. At the end of Anping Lane is a century-old tavern. Within an hour after opening, today's wine is almost sold out.The boss, Qu San, recruited two assistants, and ordered them to move the wine under the counter to the car, and personally deliver the wine ordered by Luo's family.

The carriage came out of Anping Lane, drove across Siping Road, passed Yanjing Courtyard, turned two more turns, and came to the end of Huajin Street.The mansion in front of me is Luo Mansion, with red lights hanging high, the gates open, and mighty stone lions guarding the left and right sides, and welcoming pine and holly are planted in the courtyard.

After walking half a circle around Luo Mansion, the carriage stopped at the back door, and the patrolling guards came over to question him. After the inspection was completed, the closed back door was opened.Not long after, the steward of the kitchen came out with several servants, the steward and Qu San knew each other well, they chatted for a while, the servant took the carriage and sent the wine to the kitchen.

The road in Luo Mansion is very wide, and the carriage passed smoothly through a bamboo forest and a Soviet-style garden, and finally arrived at the kitchen, where the servants moved the wine quickly.

The butler was explaining matters in the kitchen. On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the Luo family hosted a banquet for relatives. Mrs. Luo always paid attention to this matter, but she couldn't make any mistakes.

"Send the breakfast to the front hall right away, be quick with your hands and feet, don't drop it, the tea, melons, fruits and snacks are ready, and they will be served after the breakfast is removed."

As he said that, he turned to the steward beside him and continued: "The old lady and your lord are already waiting in the front hall. I'll light the red cannon and pick up Young Biao and the others by the way. Go and urge the two young masters, don't keep everyone waiting."

"Yes." The steward replied, "The eldest young master just went to the front hall, and the younger one will go to the north courtyard immediately to have a look."

North Campus

There are only two young masters in the Luo family, and the north courtyard is the residence of the young masters.The Luo family is in full swing now. Master Luo is the prime minister of the court. Although Young Master Luo is only in his early twenties, he is already a bodyguard with a sword in front of the imperial court. He is different, stubborn by nature, difficult to discipline, causing trouble all day long without doing a good job, and is a headache master.

The door to the north courtyard was still closed, but the steward knocked on the door.

Not long after, the door opened with a creak, and the person who came was a handsome young man, about fifteen or sixteen years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, gentle and amiable.

"Uncle Li." The boy smiled and shouted.

"Ah Liang, where's the young master?" the steward asked.

"In the room, I was planning to go to the front hall." A Liang said.

The steward nodded: "That's fine, hurry up and take it there, everyone is here and waiting."

……

Inside the room, Luo Yu stared at himself in the bronze mirror with fascination. Although this face was immature, it was extremely fresh, not as pale and lifeless as if he had been ill for a long time. With phoenix eyes and long eyebrows, and deep facial features, he could vaguely see his future appearance.He rubbed his temples vigorously, the feeling of hangover was unpleasant, his throat was dry, his head was throbbing, and he was in a daze last night. He finally realized that he was reborn and returned to the time when he was 14 years old.

When he was sick in bed, he always thought that it would be good to die, and he would be free after death, but now that he came back to life, he didn't feel a little bit in his heart.

Now, nothing has happened yet...

In the previous life, the Luo family fell rapidly due to people's calculations. The whole family was demoted and died, and few of them ended up well. He lived with A Liang for many years, and he didn't understand all these things until he was dying. But at that time, he, father, elder brother... the whole Luo family didn't understand it, and made a dowry for others in vain.

That year, in the winter of the 36th year of Xuanzhi, the barbarians invaded the frontier, and Luo Dashao was ordered by the holy order to lead a hundred thousand elite soldiers to the Northern Expedition. He thought it would be a victory, but he was ambushed on the way to the north. Almost all the [-] troops were wiped out in the Heyuan Gorge. There were very few survivors, and the Hu people took advantage of this to attack aggressively. Saibei had no support and fell one after another. Although that battle ended in victory, it could be described as tragic.

After the war, Dali Temple and Jinyiwei jointly investigated the Heyuan Canyon incident, and found that it was caused by Master Luo's order to take a shortcut regardless of dissuasion. The emperor was furious and severely punished Luo's family. Duo, and finally died of illness on the way to Tongshun Mansion, and Mrs. Luo, because of the loss of her son and her husband, was depressed and unhappy, and she went with her within two years.

Since then, the Luo family can't afford to lose.

Trees fall and monkeys scatter, walls fall and people push, everyone is in danger, every family in Beijing put aside their ties with the Luo family one after another, for fear of being implicated.It wasn't until the new emperor came to the throne and pardoned the world that Luo Yu, the only remaining member of the Luo family who had committed a crime, returned to the capital from Wuling.

After the Battle of Heyuan Canyon, the Luo family has been under the supervision and control of the imperial court. After regaining freedom, Luo Yu went to Heyuan Mansion to find out what happened to the Battle of Heyuan. He couldn’t figure it out anyway. There is a wide road If he doesn't go, why does his brother have to pass through the dangerous canyon?It takes half a day at most to pass through the canyon, but Heyuan Mansion is close to the frontier fortress, and the battle has not yet reached its peak, so why take such a big risk?

After two or three years of investigation, he found several clues, but they were interrupted one by one.

The truth of the Heyuan battle is certainly not what it appears on the surface, but, who is in control of all this?Who has the ability to use the security of the frontier, the army of [-], and the entire Luo family as sacrifices?

In just a few years in the previous life, as far as Luo Yu was concerned, it seemed like a few lifetimes had passed. This time, he must not just watch the Luo family repeat the same mistakes!

Thinking of this, Luo Yu frowned, stroked the memories of her previous life, and calmed down.

This year is the 21st year of Xuanzhi. This year is considered peaceful. The only major event is the canonization of the crown prince on August [-], but this will not be the case in two years. The two families of Zhang and Yun have fallen one after another. The power is weak, the second prince rises, and the sixth prince catches up from behind. After several years of secret contests, a three-legged confrontation is gradually formed.

The struggle for imperial power was perilous, and finally ended with the victory of the six princes. Presumably, the Luo family's downfall was not unrelated to this. The Luo family has always been a supporter of the prince's party, and it's just that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold.In fact, it's not really cold lips, after all, after the Luo family's accident, the prince they followed loyally abandoned the Luo family's pawn without hesitation.

In order to avoid the tragedy of the previous life, the first thing the Luo family has to do is withdraw from the struggle for the throne, but it is really difficult to do this. The Luo family can have today's status, which is closely related to the prince's party. for complex.

If you want to have the last laugh, you need to do a lot...

"Young master." A Liang entered the room, saw Luo Yu was in a daze, so he called out.

Luo Yu regained consciousness, and poured a cup of cold tea to drink. Most of the memories of the previous life were vague, and he only had a vague impression. Fortunately, A Liang would remind him of everything. I only think about eating, drinking and having fun. If there is no personal supervision, I am afraid that I will go to the sky.

"What time is it?" He asked, took a sip of cold tea, and instantly became refreshed.

"Chen Shi," A Liang replied, and moved closer to rub Luo Yu's head, "You didn't eat two bites last night, so go to the front hall and have some porridge now."

Luo Yu hummed, got up and went to the front hall.

He hadn't seen them for many years, the moment he stepped through the door, he suddenly hesitated for a moment, as if he was dreaming, it was too unreal, he would wake up as soon as he entered.

"Come here, come and sit here." The old lady saw him first and called out kindly.

"Grandmother," Luo Yu called out politely, then turned to the others, "Father, Mother, Brother."

Luo Chengnan was quite dissatisfied with him still fooling around outside on the first day of the new year, without even raising his eyelids, he put down the porridge bowl heavily, causing the hearts of the servants around him to jump in fright.

Mrs. Luo, Li Qingqiu, took it for granted, and softly beckoned him to sit down. The old lady always doted on her grandson, so she pulled Luo Yu to her side, and gave him chopsticks. It's too late, you put on a face."

Luoxi saw that Luo Chengnan's face was getting colder and colder, so he quickly smoothed things over: "I heard that Xiaoyu entered Yingtian Academy, how is it going inside? Can you still keep up with the courses?"

As a bodyguard with a knife in front of the imperial court, Luoxi traveled with the emperor, and rarely stayed at home in the past two years, so she only knew a thing or two about Luoyu's situation.

Yingtian Academy is the highest institution in the country, entering it is equivalent to stepping into the officialdom with one foot, and the future is not worrying. Naturally, the threshold of the academy is also very high.

Luo Yu is half-filled, and if he can't do it, he can't get in the exam. He is a related household, and it was Luo Chengnan who got in through his connections.Of course, the relationship should not be too obvious. The group of old antiques who sent him directly to Yingtian Academy would definitely insist on swearing at him. He was enrolled in the name of the accompanying son of Prince Huaixi.

"Well, it's okay." Luo Yu said vaguely, his brother didn't say that he forgot that he was still studying, and said, he put a crystal ball for Luo Chengnan, "Father, calm down, yes My kid is wrong, I won’t dare next time.”

The steps were given just right, Luo Chengnan's expression softened a little.

"Boy, I found an authentic work by Master Yan Chong a few days ago, and I will send it to your study after dinner."

Luo Chengnan likes to collect calligraphy and paintings, especially Yan Chong. This trick is very useful, and he lost all anger in an instant. Yuechun Hunting, make preparations."

"got it."

It's early for March.

The Luo family is an aristocratic family in the capital, and the last three generations were high officials in the court. The descendants of the Luo family are all extraordinary, but in Luo Yu's generation, the ancestors don't show much. , causing troubles for Luo Chengnan a lot, disobeying his wife one day, getting into fights tomorrow, brothels and restaurants, where there is excitement, there is him, a standard playboy.

But fortunately, he still has a little sense of propriety, so far he hasn't caused any major troubles, so he's allowed to make small troubles.
