I want to be a faint king [Rebirth]
Chapter 34
Luo Chen's eyes shone with expectation, with a little joy and shyness, he looked directly at Xiao Rong in front of him.
At that time, his father was addicted to gambling and owed a foreign debt of one hundred taels of silver. According to the Luo family's family situation, one hundred taels of silver was enough for their family's expenses for five years, and they couldn't afford it at all. He sold it into a small restaurant under the owner of the casino.
Because Luo Chen had acquainted with Xiao Rong, the county magistrate at that time, for several times before, so he asked Xiao Rong for help. Although Xiao Rong was young at the time, his wrist was extremely strict. Fang is also doing everything he can, and at this time Luo Chen came to ask for help, which undoubtedly pushed the casino owner to the forefront.
Because of Luo Chen's beauty, he was sold into a small house, and someone bought Chu Ye at a high price, and Luo Chen was also being taught how to please the guests. The disheveled man cried and begged for mercy. rescued, and then left the small hall with him in his arms.
After checking the casino and closing down the small house, Luo Chen didn't want to go back to that house again, so when Xiao Rong was transferred back to the capital, he came to the capital with him and opened up contacts for him so that he could gain a foothold in the capital. place.
And because Luo Chen is quite talented in calligraphy and painting, with Xiao Rong's help, he quickly became famous. In the past few years in Beijing, he has made some achievements.
It's just that his thoughts on Xiao Rong have changed as he got in touch more and more, and because of the things he learned in the Xiaoguanguan Middle School, he can clearly know that he will never be able to marry another wife and have children in his life, and he loves Xiao Rong. Xiao Rong, he doesn't want to be with someone he doesn't love.
As for Xiao Rong, although he has never said clearly that he is in his heart, Xiao Rong will help him as long as he asks for it, and after Xiao Rong returned to Beijing, he has never made a marriage promise with anyone, even if he did, he rejected it, so He had some doubts that Xiao Rong never married a wife, whether it was because he had himself in his heart.
Xiao Rong looked at Luo Chen's eyes full of expectations, narrowed his eyes slightly, looked down at the drink in front of him, and said after a long time: "My ambition is in my family and country, and it is not an affair between my sons and daughters. Your Majesty was furious and ended up with a decapitated body, therefore, he does not want to marry a wife, for fear of delaying the marriage of the beautiful woman."
Xiao Rong's voice was originally low and magnetic, but the ruthless words at this moment added a bit of coldness to his voice.
Luo Chen's eyes flickered, but tears were filled in a moment, his expression was a little embarrassed, he deliberately avoided Xiao Rong's gaze, and pretended to be relaxed, "Isn't it because you have me in your heart?"
"No." Xiao Rong's tone was resolute and ruthless, like a sharp knife piercing into Luo Chen's heart fiercely, stripping away the self-esteem he used to hide himself.
He came from a humble background, but because of Xiao Rong, he was able to get acquainted with some famous people. He knew in his heart that without Xiao Rong, he would be nothing. In order to cover up the inner inferiority complex.
He thought that Xiao Rong had him in his heart, and this was the thing he was least sure about, but also the most sure thing.
Now hearing Xiao Rong say with his own ears that he doesn't have himself in his heart, the delusion in his heart has turned into shame, anger and unbearable possession, making him unable to raise his head anymore.
"My mother is still at home waiting for me to go back, so I won't wait." Xiao Rong got up, saluted Luo Chen slightly, then turned and left the restaurant.
Luo Chen kept his head down and remained silent, even when Xiao Rong left, he never raised his head to see him off, he did such a shameful thing today, he really didn't know how to face Xiao Rong, he was afraid that Xiao Rong would despise him , and also afraid that they will alienate him in the future.
The more he thought about it, the more wronged Luo Chen felt, and then he fell on the table, sobbing faintly.
It was getting late, and soon after the wind stopped, it began to rain. The light rain swept across the capital silently. Luo Chen, who is not good at drinking, drank a full jar of wine. At this moment, he was walking on the street drunk with.
The horse-drawn carriage from Taiwei's Mansion galloped down the street, because it was late and raining, there were no pedestrians on the street, how could the groom care that there was a drunk young man in front of him on the street Walking, so he couldn't rein in the horse for a while, knocked Luo Chen to the ground, and immediately fell unconscious.
"What's going on?" Xu Zheng's sinister voice came from inside the carriage, and the coachman was shocked when he heard it, and he hurriedly said tremblingly:
"Old...Master, it's not good, I hit someone."
After a moment of silence in the carriage, Xu Zhengcai opened the curtain and looked at the young man in a brocade robe lying in front of the horse's hooves. He was unconscious at the moment, and his face was pale in the rain.
Xu Zheng jumped out of the carriage, and his attendants immediately put an umbrella over Xu Zheng's head, and hurriedly said: "Master, it's getting late, you should go home, and this person will be sent to the nearest hospital. "
Xu Zheng quietly looked at Luo Chen lying on the ground in front of the carriage, and had a panoramic view of his furrowed brows and painful expression. He somehow felt that such a scene was familiar, and it stabbed his heart with a dull pain.
"Take him back to the mansion." Xu Zheng ordered, then turned around and got into the carriage.
The attendant was a little confused, but still carried Luo Chen up according to Xu Zheng's instructions, and took him back to Taiwei's mansion.
As soon as March is over, the beginning of April is the Ching Ming Festival. The Ministry of Rituals is intensively preparing for the emperor and the queen mother to worship ancestors during the Ching Ming Festival, and the cold food on the first two days of the Ching Ming Festival is that there is no smoke inside or outside the palace.
Luo Chen looked at the food in front of him, then at the person sitting in front of him, then got up and saluted, "The student has been bothering you at the residence for more than a month, and I'm really embarrassed to stay any longer."
A smile appeared on Xu Zhengjunyi's face, he raised his eyes to look at the young man in front of him and said, "It's okay, after all, it was my carriage that hit you that day, so I should take care of you."
Luo Chen looked at Xu Zheng's appearance, although he was smiling, he always felt that he hid himself too deeply, so even if he smiled, it gave people the illusion of being thousands of miles away. He saluted and said:
"The student's health is already in good shape now, so there should be no more trouble." Luo Chen said respectfully.
Xu Zheng didn't ask to stay, but said slowly: "Since that's the case, I won't force you to stay. It's cold food today, so it's better to leave after eating, otherwise, it's a waste."
Luo Chen nodded with a slight smile, then sat down and had dinner with Xu Zheng.
"Nine out of ten unsatisfactory things in a person's life, especially the word love, is even more difficult to understand. You are still young, and you will meet more people in the future. There will always be someone who is your good match. "
Luo Chen buried his head and ate, but Xu Zheng looked at his appearance at this moment, and leisurely opened his mouth to persuade him.Luo Chen was slightly stunned, then looked up at him in confusion: "Master Xu..."
"These days you were in the mansion, although I never said it clearly, but I can feel it. You were drunk and walking in the rain that day, and my carriage hit you again. It is also fate. I am older than you. Naturally, I have experienced more things than you, so looking at your appearance, I know that you must be trapped by love." Xu Zheng's tone was gentle, like a warm spring breeze, blowing Luo Chen's heart slightly, thinking of what he did that day , I feel even more unbearable.
"Master Xu laughed." Luo Chen nodded and said with a wry smile.
"I'm just from here. If brother Luo Xian doesn't dislike you, you don't have to call me sir. It would be nice to call me brother." Xu Zheng looked at Luo Chen and smiled, warm as spring.
"Student, how can he be able to have Mr. Xu as his elder brother?" Luo Chen got up in surprise, and hurriedly saluted Xu Zheng with his hands clasped.
"I'm also from a poor family. There was an accident in my family. I was the only one alive. If our whole family could survive the catastrophe back then, my younger brother would be as big as you. Seeing you is like seeing my younger brother." So-so." When Xu Zheng looked at Luo Chen, his eyes were slightly moved, as if showing his true feelings, seeing that Luo Chen really couldn't refuse, so he could only salute:
"Brother, please be respected by my younger brother."
"Okay, okay, now I have a younger brother." Xu Zheng smiled gratifiedly and stood up, pulling Luo Chen up.
After eating, Luo Chen insisted on leaving, but Xu Zheng didn't stop him, he just told him to come to him if he had something to do, and after Luo Chen agreed, he left from Taiwei Mansion and went back to his small courtyard.
In the breeze and drizzle building, Xu Zheng pushed the door and entered, stood in front of the desk, looked at the writing on the desk, couldn't help but smiled and said, "Since you're here, come out."
As soon as Xu Zheng finished speaking, a handsome man in a black suit came out from behind the bookshelf. He clasped his fists and saluted Xu Zheng, and said respectfully, "Join Mr. Xu."
"Shuo Yue, long time no see." Xu Zheng turned around and looked at the man named Shuo Yue: "However, what are you doing here if you don't stay with Master?"
"The master is worried that the adults will be in danger, so he came here to protect the adults." Shuo Yue held a sword and cupped her fists, and smiled hypocritically:
"But I just saw Master Xu being so kind to that scholar just now. Could it be that Master Xu really wants to recognize that younger brother, and intends to enjoy the joy of being a brother and friend."
"Do you know who he is?" Xu Zheng looked down and looked directly at Shuo Yue.
Shuo Yue smiled without saying a word, and shrugged.
"He has a deep friendship with Doctor Yushi Xiao Rong, and he was kept just to get close to Xiao Rong and remove obstacles for the master." Xu Zheng's expression was gloomy, which made Shuo Yue a little surprised.
"I never thought Master Xu would have such a plan." Shuo Yue smiled.
"Love is poison through the intestines. Medicine can save people, but it can also kill people. Luo Chen, as long as he uses it properly, is a sharp weapon to hurt people. Compared with force, he has to be clear-headed occasionally, understand?" Xu Zheng snorted coldly. With a sound, he walked to the desk and sat down, holding the letter addressed to him on the desk.
Looking at Xu Zheng's appearance, Shuo Yue couldn't help laughing and said, "I don't understand love, but I still think force is the best choice to solve the problem."
And Xu Zheng opened the letter, but he didn't seem to listen to Shuoyue's words. Shuoyue was a little helpless, and then turned around and walked out of the Breeze and Drizzle Tower.
At that time, his father was addicted to gambling and owed a foreign debt of one hundred taels of silver.
