Chapter 2 The Old Marshal

Liuyun Palace, is the Three Princesses Mansion to entertain the most distinguished guests will open a large hall, on weekdays, there will be a special servant here to sprinkle sweeping, and incense to wait.

The Liuyun Hall has not been opened for many years, but today, Lin Jiasen made an exception, in this regard, Qiushu, who had just returned home, did not feel that it was inappropriate at all, on the contrary, if those two were the two people she imagined, she would also feel that Lin Jiasen's move was really appropriate.

After passing through the hall and passing through eleven courtyards, Qiushu came to Liuyun Palace.

The servants on the road did not dare to stop her, although she had not returned to the house for five years, the servants in the house had not changed, most of them knew her, and when they saw her, they all knelt on the road, and waited until she left the courtyard before they dared to stand up.

Looking up at the huge plaque, Qiu Shu was full of thoughts for a while, the words on this plaque were written by Her Majesty the Queen of Heaven on her third birthday, and the font was not the slightest delicate, but full of sabre-rattling.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but think of the time when she left Qiujing City five years ago, on the surface, Her Majesty the Queen of Heaven was no different from her, but that night, she caught up with their convoy in private, and saw her off without anyone knowing.

However, in the past five years, it can be regarded as a blessing, Qiu Shu glanced at the direction of the palace, her eyes were a little complicated, these days, she has spent all her time in the palace, and Her Majesty the Queen of Heaven is no different from five years ago.

yes, it doesn't make any difference!

Qiu Shu shook her head violently, once these things are remembered, there is no end, she straightened her clothes, at this time Lou Yanxin and Ma Xiaohua also followed, she took the first step and entered the Liuyun Palace, and Lou Yanxin and Ma Xiaohua also followed.

And further behind them, after Lin Jiasen came to the outside of the Liuyun Palace, he stood outside the hall and sent away any servants who tried to get closer.

Entering the hall, the arrangement should be exactly the same as before, behind the main seat, there is a huge screen, which is painted with a picture of a thousand autumn ladies given by His Majesty the Queen of Heaven, only this screen is priceless, Gain, this is according to the original painting in the palace, although it is only one-tenth of the original charm, but it is also quite precious.

The original picture of the ladies of Qianqiu, is from the pen of Yan Qingzhuo, the chief painter of the court, is a horizontal picture, a total of ten zhang long, on which is painted a thousand women, all of them have names and surnames, most of them are these hundreds of years, for the Qiushui country under the great military exploits of the general, it is said that it took a total of ten years for Master Yan to succeed.

And on this screen, only six of the pictures are taken.

Under the main seat, there are two rows of chairs, in the first place, a young man is holding a cup of tea and slowly sipping, his long hair is tied up, with a golden ring of hair, the face is not clear, but just looking at the side face, can make the woman in the world blush and heartbeat.

Qiu Shu's face was happy, and finally showed a little smile, she took a few steps and came to the young man.

The young man had already stood up, he looked at Qiu Shu, with a smile on his face, and said first: "Xiaoshu, it's really you back, it's good, it's good." ”

Qiu Shu's eyes were red, and he actually threw himself into the arms of the young man, and choked up: "Grandpa Lu, I saw your old man in Xiaoshu in Laiyang City, but I never had a chance to recognize each other, and seeing it today really makes Xiaoshu so happy." ”

Lou Yanxin knelt down on one knee and said respectfully, "Meet Marshal Lu." ”

Ma Xiaohua didn't know why, but he still knelt down on one knee.

The young man patted Qiushu's back lightly and said, "Don't cry, don't cry, Xiaoshu, you are now a big girl, and you are also my Royal Highness the third princess of Qiushui Kingdom. ”

Qiu Shu's head shook like a rattle, and tears were smeared on the young man's clothes, and he said: "I don't care, I don't care, the little book will always be Grandpa Lu's little book, and this will not change in this life." ”

The young man looked helpless, he comforted Qiu Shu a few more words, and after her mood stabilized, he turned his head to look at Lou Yanxin and said, "Presumably you are Lou Yanxin, yes, you are only one step away from the martial artist." This time, I accompanied Xiaoshu to a foreign country, and I worked hard for you. ”

Lou Yanxin's expression was shocked, and she immediately lowered her head and said: "I don't dare to say anything bitter, not to mention all this, I am willing to do it." ”

"Okay, very good, you get up, the old man will stay in the small book for a while, if you successfully advance to the realm of martial artists, you can come to the old man." In addition, the old man is no longer a marshal, and now he does not have any official rank, so he must not be called that anymore. The young man said.

"Yes. Lou Yanxin stood up and stood aside respectfully, but in her beautiful eyes, it was difficult to hide the ecstasy.

She never thought that after she advanced to a martial artist, she would have the opportunity to get the guidance of this one, which was something she had never dreamed of before.

"Really, really?" Qiu Shu jumped up like a child and said, "Is Grandpa Lu really going to stay here for a while?"

"What, you're not welcome?" Lu Zhifang quipped.

"No, no, how can it be, welcome, it's so welcome, I'll go and ask Uncle Lin to arrange a place for you. Qiushu said excitedly.

"No need, Jiasen has already arranged it for the old man. ”

Lu Zhifang said, and turned his head to look at Ma Xiaohua, who was still kneeling on the ground.

"This one, forgive the old man, I really don't know your name, but to be able to follow Xiaoshu here, I must have gained Xiaoshu's trust. Arise also. The young man looked at Ma Xiaohua and said.

On Ma Xiaohua's old face, a flush suddenly appeared, and he vaguely thought of who the person in front of him was, but he couldn't believe his guess, that one, hadn't he been removed from the position of marshal decades ago, could it really be him?

Ma Xiaohua had some hope that this was the one he thought, but he was a little afraid that his hope would be disappointed, and after thinking about it for a while, Ma Xiaohua did not get up, but instead knelt on his legs, bowed his head respectfully and said: "Dare to ask, but in front of the old marshal Lu of Lu Zhifang, please forgive the villain for being presumptuous, I am really too curious and too excited." ”

Ma Xiaohua's voice trembled a little, which showed that what he said was true.

Lu Zhifang nodded and said, "It's the old man." ”

"Sure enough, it's your old man, my God, is your old man rejuvenated, or has he already reached the legendary Martial Sect realm?

Ma Xiaohua's face was full of shock, but he immediately said: "No, no, no, Marshal Lu, the villain doesn't have the slightest intention of inquiring, it is really a blessing for the villain to see Marshal Lu today, some words are unscrupulous, Marshal Lu must not be blamed." By the way, the villain's name is Ma Xiaohua, who was once a small regimental general in the Eighth Regiment of the Third Army of the Longpi Army. ”

"Oh? That's no wonder. Lu Zhifang smiled: "You get up, is she okay? You chose to retire, is it because of your injury?"

Ma Xiaohua didn't insist this time, kowtowed respectfully, then stood up and said: "Marshal Lu's eyes are correct, in the battle a few years ago, the villain's meridians were greatly damaged, and over the years, it is already quite good to be able to maintain the situation without falling, as for the combat power, it is not as good as before, and the villain also sees that he cannot achieve greater achievements in the army than before, so he chose to retire." Oh, I have been wandering the rivers and lakes for many years, and I thought that this life would be like this, but I didn't expect to meet Her Royal Highness the princess on the road, so I followed Her Royal Highness all the way back to Beijing. Facts have proved that this choice is really correct, in the villain's life, in the short time left, he was able to see Marshal Lu, and he could still serve His Royal Highness, and the villain died without regrets. As for what your old man said about her, the villain hasn't seen her for many years, but when the villain retired, I saw her once, and at that time, she was fine. ”

Lu Zhifang nodded first, then shook his head slightly, and said: "Don't be so pessimistic first, another day the old man is free, you can ask the imperial doctor to come and show you, your situation is relatively special, if it can really be cured, maybe there will be new changes." ”

"Yes. The villain obeyed. Ma Xiaohua responded.

"Okay, you two should sit down too, Grandpa Lu, can you take a seat?" Qiu Shu pulled Lu Zhifang's big sleeve, wanting him to sit on the main seat.

Lu Zhifang didn't move, and said with a smile: "Xiaoshu, you are the master here, if the old man sits there, believe it or not, His Majesty will know today, do you want the old man to fall into the infamy of being a host and guest?"

"Oh, that's a little ill-conceived book. Then sit down, Grandpa Lu. ”

Qiu Shu said that he didn't go to sit on the main seat, but sat in Lu Zhifang's lower position, and there was only a table between the two.

Lou Yanxin and Ma Xiaohua also sat opposite each other, Lou Yanxin was fine, at least she looked at it on her face, and she sat quite steadily, that is, the corners of her mouth trembled a little occasionally.

Ma Xiaohua only dared to sit on his ass for a while, and after a while, he took a deep breath, which was really caused by too many ups and downs in his heart for a martial artist who had achieved cultivation.

A few people sat down, Qiu Shu hurriedly pulled Lu Zhifang's sleeve and asked, "Grandpa Lu, how is Laiyang City now? What about those sheep-headed monsters, have they all been killed by your old man? Also, have you ever seen Xiaoshu's companion reading boy and the little girl who is only five years old, how are the two of them now? Have you successfully escaped from Laiyang City?"

This series of questions did not make Lu Zhifang feel bored, but he still sighed softly, and a trace of gloom climbed on his face.
