Chapter 614: Long Time No See
Regarding Xue Zhengde and others, it involves the government of Cangwu State, and Lu Ping'an has almost no understanding of it, so he didn't participate in the discussion much.
It is mainly Hu Xian, Luo Yi, and Xue Chengwu who are discussing.
Although Xue Chengwu is only in his twenties, he has been in the army for many years, he has a lot of experience, his intelligence is also quite good, and most importantly, he is extremely familiar with the army controlled by Xue Zhengde, as long as it is related to this aspect, he can help with advice.
After some discussion, they decided to control the General's Mansion first, and then Xue Chengwu came forward to announce that Xue Zhengde suddenly fell seriously ill and needed to recuperate at home, and would not lead troops for the time being.
Of course, this was only a delaying tactic, and after that, Hu Xian would summon other generals in that army to slowly explain and persuade those people until he could fully control the entire army, and then consider whether to sentence Xue Zhengde for his crimes.
On the side of the National Education Academy, it is relatively much easier to handle, after all, the greatest control of the National Education Academy is still in the hands of Hu Xian, as long as it is said to the outside world that Zhang Boshi has gone to retreat and cultivate, and then finds a trustworthy vice president to manage the affairs of the academy instead, basically there will be no big problems.
As for Wei Guogong, there is no need to worry, with his confessional attitude, it is relatively simple to appease the people of his faction.
However, all of this is based on the premise that the negotiations between Lu Ping'an and Qi Zhu go smoothly, if the negotiations collapse, the situation will be even more difficult to control, especially on the army side, and it may not only affect Xue Zhengde's army at that time.
"Let's do it first, how to implement it, we still have to wait to get in touch with Qi Zhu. ”
After a period of time, when night fell, Qi Zhu said this to Lu Ping'an and the others.
Luo Yi arched his hand and said: "Yes, I will go back and sort out the relevant intelligence information, and then send it to Your Majesty." ”
Hu Xian nodded, then turned his head to look at Xue Chengwu, and said, "I will immediately send a royal worshipper and more than a dozen palace guards to help you control the General's Mansion, but it is up to you to appease the emotions of the people in the Mansion." ”
Xue Chengwu said: "Please rest assured that Your Majesty will definitely complete the task." ”
Then, Hu Xian's eyes fell on Lu Ping'an's body and asked, "Lu Xiaoyou, do you have anything else to do outside the palace?"
Lu Ping'an said: "Not for the time being, it's just that there are two brothers waiting for me in an inn in the city, but it doesn't matter, I'll just inform them with a sound transmission device later." ”
Hu Xian said: "Then why don't you stay in the palace first and wait for news from Qi Zhu?"
Lu Ping'an thought for a moment and said, "That's fine, so as not to delay time." ”
After that, everyone dispersed under Hu Xian's arrangement.
Luo Yi returned to Feiyuwei, Xue Chengwu returned to the General's Mansion with a royal offering and a group of palace guards, and Lu Ping'an went to the lakeside garden in the palace.
In fact, according to Hu Xian's estimate, Qi Zhu's side did not hear back so quickly, and his main purpose of leaving Lu Ping'an in the palace was to let him and Hu Ling meet.
Although Hu Xian is the king of a country, he is also Hu Ling's father, he more or less, he still knows Hu Ling's longing for Lu Ping'an, and with such an opportunity, he naturally wants to arrange for the two to meet.
And when Lu Ping'an heard that Hu Xian asked him to go to the lakeside garden, he already understood something, so he didn't refuse, and soon went to the garden.
The garden is almost the same as it was, and it still looks beautiful and elegant at night.
The breeze blows, the lake is sparkling, and the moonlight floats on it, giving people a sense of comfort and agility.
Lu Ping'an stood under the small pavilion by the lake and waited for a while, then he sensed that someone was approaching.
When I turned my head to look, I saw Hu Ling, who was wearing a plain long skirt and dressed simply but not casually.
I haven't seen him for nearly two years, and Hu Ling's whole person looks more mature, no longer the quirky little princess she was back then, but a big beauty with a noble and dignified temperament.
In a sense, this is more in line with the appearance of a princess in the minds of the people.
But her big eyes full of aura and the pair of golden talisman bells around her waist are still the same, and they haven't changed much.
Hu Ling and Lu Ping'an looked at each other as they walked towards the lakeside pavilion.
During this time, neither of them spoke, just looked at each other with affection.
And when Hu Ling walked to Lu Ping'an's side, he couldn't help but fall into his arms.
Of course, Lu Ping'an also opened his hands and hugged Hu Ling gently.
The two embraced each other silently for a while before slowly separating.
Hu Ling raised his head slightly, looked at Lu Ping'an, and said softly: "Lu Ping'an, long time no see." ”
Lu Ping'an smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, it's been a long time." ”
Hu Ling asked: "If you appear in the palace, does it mean that the things you said before have been resolved?"
Lu Ping'an said: "Not yet, that matter is a long story, so let's not mention it for the time being, let's talk about something else...... By the way, I still have to apologize to you for what happened last time. ”
Hu Ling asked puzzledly, "What happened last time?"
Lu Ping'an said: "It's that when I returned to Luo Tiancheng, I didn't look for you for the first time, and after I contacted you with a sound transmission device, I didn't care much about you, and kept talking about other ......."
Hu Ling smiled and said, "It turned out to be this, in fact, I just felt a little uncomfortable at the time, but I forgot about it later, and I didn't care much about it at all, after all, you are like this because you have more important things to do." ”
Lu Ping'an sighed and said, "Yes, that incident is indeed quite important, even more important than I imagined, or it can also be said to be serious......"
Hu Ling said: "So what the hell is going on, why does General Mingwei dare to collude with Han Ying Pavilion to deal with your Lu family?"
Lu Ping'an said: "Just like you said before, that guy wants to rebel......"
Hu Ling was shocked and said, "Huh?"
Lu Ping'an said: "But you don't have to worry, he and his accomplices have been arrested by us, and everything is safe and sound at present." ”
Hu Ling said: "That's true, if there is something, you won't stand here and chat with me." ”
Lu Ping'an said: "I and your father will take care of those things, you don't have to worry about it." ”
Hu Ling said: "That's right, but if something big happens, as a member of the royal family of Cangwu Kingdom, I definitely can't stay out of it, and besides, I am now a ninefold monk in the Yuanwu Realm, and I am no longer as weak as before, and I can also help a lot when necessary." ”
Hearing this, Lu Ping'an couldn't help but be surprised.
When she attacked Qinshan back then, Hu Ling was a Yuanwu duo, and in the past two years now, she has improved to the sevenfold realm.
This is a relatively normal speed for the genius disciples of those top sects.
But the key is that Hu Ling cultivated in Cangwu Country, even if she, as Her Royal Highness the Princess, could enjoy the best cultivation treatment in the country, but in general, the cultivation resources in all aspects were still inferior to those top sects of the four major countries.
But in this case, she still made a lot of progress, not only because of her talent and endowment, but also because she put in a lot of effort to do so.
In Lu Ping'an's view, it is not easy for her to get to where she is today.
Seeing that Lu Ping'an didn't speak, Hu Ling said with some frustration: "What's the matter? Do you think my cultivation speed is too slow?"
Lu Ping'an hurriedly shook his head and said, "Of course not, your speed is already very good." ”
Hu Ling said: "You don't need to comfort me, my cultivation realm is simply worlds apart from yours, and there is no way to compare it at all." Who would have thought that the young man who was in Wanqiu City back then would now become a powerhouse in the Transcendent Realm, and also become a great hero in the entire Eastern Continent?"
Lu Ping'an said: "Immodestly, if you really want to compare your cultivation speed with me, there are few people in this world who can compare with me, but if you put it in the ordinary cultivators, your speed is indeed very good." ”
Hu Ling said: "I'm the princess of Cangwu Kingdom, how can I compare with ordinary cultivators? Even compared to that genius girl in Jixia Academy, I'm far from her, right?"
Hearing this, Lu Ping'an's heart jumped, he knew that what Hu Ling was talking about was Chun Yu Feiqiong, and it seemed that he was going to talk about this topic after all......
