Dugu Xiude did have this confidence. His father Dugu Ji was a fourth-rank Sili official in the dynasty and could impeach officials of all sizes in prefectures and counties. His grandfather Dugu Zang was the prefect of Longshan, and Dugu Zang was the fourth son of Dugu Xin. It can be said that his family is in the family and has a profound foundation.

Dugu Xiude also claimed to be extraordinary in appearance, and was often told by his grandmother that he looked a bit like Dugu Xin back then. You should know that Dugu Xin founded the Dugu family, and he was a foreigner of the Eight Pillars of the Western Wei Dynasty. He was even more handsome and handsome. He was known as Dugu Lang back then. If he was both civil and military, he was suave, he would be no less than Gao Changgong, the King of Lanling.

Dugu Xiude and self-controlled his family, and he is also a handsome talent, but his family tradition is very strict and he does not allow him to go to Mazhangtai in Dongdu, so he simply looks down on the brothel girl. When he arrived in Zhuo County, he thought to himself that Qu Yanran was just a good talent, so how could he not buy the face of the Dugu family?

After Dugu Xiude reported his name, he glanced at Yunniang and said, "Do you guys refuse to see each other even if you meet him?"

Yunniang covered her mouth and smiled when she heard this. She had never seen such a scene since Qu Yanran became famous, but she had not seen her noble son who had been so self-reliant in order to suppress others for a while.

Yunniang immediately pulled Xue Wanshu and said with a smile: "Mr. Xue, this is your first time to come to Mingyue Tower. I don't know everyone's rules. Please persuade him."

Xue Wanshu did say, "Brother Dugu, it's true, everyone is different from the ordinary..."

Dugu Xiude said, "Brother Xue, Mo Yan." Dugu Xiude looked at Yunniang and said, "This is Brother Xue from the Xue family in Hedong, and this is Brother Lu from the Lu family in Fanyang. Plus, I, the face of the three of them is here today. If everyone doesn't come to see him, they will not take our three families seriously."

As soon as this statement was made, Lu Chengqing and Xue Wanshu were both very disappointed. Although they were born in aristocratic family, their family education was very strict. When they were away, their elders had many explanations and should not hold on to the background of the children of the gentry to suppress others. But when Dugu Xiude said this, they knew that speaking at this time was to wipe out Dugu Xiude's face, so they simply said silently.

Yunniang secretly contempts her heart, smiles on her face, and says, "Young Master Dugu, I really want to see you, so please move."

Dugu Xiude was very moved and looked back at Lu Chengqing and Xue Wanshu. At that moment, Yunniang made a gesture of invitation. Dugu Xiude took a step and looked back at Li Chongjiuyan and said, "Qu everyone is sick, so it's not good for too many people to disturb me. Brother Xu might as well drink here."

Lu Chengqing can go, Xue Wanshu can go, Lu Qi can go, Wen Yanbo can go, but Li Chongjiu can't go. This is undoubtedly a slap in the face on the spot.

Li Chongjiu narrowed his eyes, and Lu Qi frowned and said, "Dugu Sanlang, this person is my brother's VIP guest. It is also Brother Xue's intention to ask everyone in Qu. What do you send him?"

Lu Qi has always been accustomed to Dugu Xiude, so she is not afraid of him. Dugu Xiude is slightly annoyed and looks at Lu Chengqing and wants him to restrain his sister, but Lu Chengqing is also in a dilemma at this moment.

At this time, Yun Niang on the side said, "Slowly, this brother Xu is so familiar."

It was everyone's turn to be surprised. Dugu Xiude said disdainfully: "Why, Yunniang, this person is just a common man, has he ever been famous in the moonlight back then?"

Yunniang burst out laughing and said, "Speaking of this, I have really seen it in Dongdu. Well, I remember that he was the King of Qi Suibin."

This time Dugu Xiude was shocked. He thought to himself who this person was. It would be fine if Li Mi valued him, but he could also accompany the King of Qi. Lu Chengqing was also secretly suspicious, thinking to himself that this person was not a general of the Eagle-Strike Army in Shanggu County? Why did he not only meet Li Mi, but also the King of Qi. Could it be that Li Chongjiu stands in Shanggu, and behind him is the support of King of Qi and one of the two Li Mi?

Li Chongjiu smiled and said, "I was in a hurry a few years ago, but I didn't expect Yunniang to remember it."

Yunniang smiled and took Li Chongjiu's hand, saying, "The happiness of life is nothing more than meeting an old friend in a foreign land. Since we have come to Mingyue Tower, let me Yunniang be the host."

Seeing that Yunniang valued Li Chongjiu so much, Dugu Xiude snorted softly, then walked away. Lu Qi, who saw that Li Chongjiu was so close to Yunniang, was jealous.

Then, he entrusted Dugu Xiude's blessing and everyone came to an Yaxuan on the third floor.

Everyone saw Qu Yanran in a crimson gauze brewing tea. This tea brewing is a life that the southern gentry likes, called tea drinking, but it is rarely seen by the northern gentry, and some even take it as a tree root to drink medicine. Everyone was worried that as Dugu Xiude became a villain this time, it would make Qu Yanran unhappy. However, he did not expect that Qu Yanran looked normal and showed their faces because they came uninvited.

Seeing this, Lu Chengqing couldn't help but secretly praise Qu Yanran is worthy of being called a great man. Without talking about her appearance and talent, just by her demeanor, she deserves the word "天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天天

As the saying goes, the host and the host treat each other. Since Qu Yanran treats each other with the master's courtesy, everyone cannot be neglected. In this high-level social occasion in the Great Sui Dynasty, everyone is sitting on a reed mat with their hands on their knees and their eyes are not squinting. They are all very rules, and they are worried that they will be looked down upon by the beauty.

Qu Yanran focused on making tea, and did not look up at everyone. At this moment, the copper pot above the charcoal fire had already made a vague sound. Qu Yanran gently lifted the gauze sleeve, took out a silver spoon, and picked up the fine salt like snowflakes into the copper pot. Li Chongjiu looked at the scene like a lady grinding ink, and immediately entered the painting.

After a while, the water in the pot boiled like a falling bead. Qu Yanran lifted the lid of the pot again and gently stirred it in the water with a bamboo clip. While stirring, she scooped some fine rice-like tea from the porcelain bottle with a silver spoon and slowly threw it into the boiling water.

At this moment, the house was filled with tea fragrance. Everyone had never seen anyone so focused on cooking a pot of tea. They saw that the other party was serious and focused. Qu Yanran then slowly stood up, poured half a cup in the tea bowl in front of each person, and then poured half a cup for himself. Then he raised the cup between his eyebrows and invited him, gently opened his red lips and said.

After entering the house for a long time, Qu Yanran said something.

When a cup of tea is in his stomach, everyone is comfortable, but compared to the pleasing tea ceremony just now, the comfort is second to the fact that the real intoxication is to create an atmosphere.

Lu Qi was already convinced by the side. Qu Yanran's every move seemed to be rhythmic and elegant, and she was more like a gentry woman than her.

I heard that the Jiangnan gentry inherited from the Qin and Han dynasties. After the clothing and clothing south, it accumulated for hundreds of years, which is much closer to the orthodox Han family than the northern genius. She knew that the Jiangnan genius women were taught a set of tea ceremony since childhood. They had a family background for a hundred years and had a set of rules. Unfortunately, the Sui Dynasty broke the Southern Dynasties and countless Jiangnan geniuses were destroyed. Now the tea ceremony is no longer the same as before.

But today it actually reappeared from the other person. Alas, I haven't heard of her pipa.

Unlike Lu Qi's inner tremor, Dugu Xiude, Xue Wanshu, and Lu Chengqing do not have the delicate feeling of women. When men look at women, they always have only one constant standard, that is, their face.

After a bowl of tea, Dugu Xiude glanced at Qu Yanran's face and thought to himself that this is the real woman. In the past, the lady of a wealthy family was like chewing wax. No wonder Brother Xue is usually considered a handsome man, and he doesn't want to eat or drink.

Xue Wanshu was graceful and graceful, talking and laughing at the tea ceremony with Qu Yanran. In front of the beauty, Xue Wanshu was naturally in the best state of being romantic and elegant, and talked quite speculatively. As for Lu Chengqing, who already had a virtuous wife in the room, she was very loving, but she served as a foil on the side. As the master, Qu Yanran smiled and talked with everyone, making everyone feel at home.

When asked about Wen Yanbo, he learned that the other party was a famous scholar today, Qu Yanran couldn't help but talk to him a few more words, and he highly praised him in his words. Finally, Li Chongjiu also talked a few words, but Qu Yanran seemed to have a first-time understanding of him, and after talking a few words, there was no topic.

Seeing Qu Yanran's cold attitude, as if she had never seen herself before, Li Chongjiu sat on the reed mat, spared her nose, and thought for a while, suddenly she seemed to understand something.

Others didn't care much about it during the meal. Qu Yanran's attitude towards Li Chongjiu was the only one who cared about Lu Qi and Dugu Xiude.

Looking at Li Chongjiu's appearance, Dugu Xiude felt very happy. He thought to himself that he was an old friend, and it was obvious that Qu Yanran could not even remember it. It seems that everyone in Qu also despises the poor and loves the rich. This kid dresses so coldly that he knew he was a poor family, so he ignored him. Humph, if I were him, I would not come in to embarrass this face.

Dugu Xiude was very happy and even chatted loudly.

After a while, Qu Yanran asked her to say that she was not feeling well. Everyone knew how to behave. Even Dugu Xiude was not good at silence anymore and said goodbye at the moment.

In the northwest of the city, Lu Family Mansion.

Lu Chengqing, who returned from Mingyue Tower, was standing behind a middle-aged man with his hands down and said, "Uncle, this is the case. My nephew thinks that Li Chongjiu is very famous outside the northern border recently, and he is really not to be underestimated."

After the middle-aged man put his hands on his back, he frowned and said, "Why is it so coincidental? Xue Shixiong had just wanted to go south, and Li Chongjiu planned to enter Zhuo County. Can Li Chongjiu be aware of this beforehand?"

"Uncle, what do you mean?"

The middle-aged man stopped and said, "Today in Mingyue Tower, Xue Shixiong has clearly stated that he would go south soon, so I asked him how many gentry members of my Lu family could recruit troops in Zhuo County to protect himself. He nodded and agreed."

"Uncle, Xue Shixiong even agreed. In the past, the Yang family was very afraid of the Hebei gentry who had defected to Gao Qi, who had defected to us. It can be seen how far the situation in the court has reached."

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "In the late Han Dynasty, the Yellow Turban Rebellion was not supported by the imperial court. He recruited troops by local tyrants to quell the Yellow Turban, and finally the heroes were in power. The world is in chaos now, how similar is this scene to the late Han Dynasty."

Lu Chengqing trembled all over and asked, "Uncle, do you mean to let me have the Lu family Zhuolu world? This is absolutely impossible!" (To be continued. Please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!)
