Back in the house, Lu Shui followed Prime Minister Lu to the study. The war has ended, and Marshal Lu is the prime minister after all, so he is called "Prime Minister Lu".

The subordinate served tea, and after retreating, Lu Shui said first: Father, can you tell me about the situation outside the Saiwai?

Prime Minister Lu raised his eyes to look at him, and then said: Do you want to ask if what the general said is true?

Lu Shui's heart is here.

Prime Minister Lu Cheng was silent when he saw him, and only after taking a sip of tea did he say: What he said was the truth. The people outside the fortress are much stronger than the soldiers of our dynasty, and the friendship for defending the honor of the country is even deeper, and if someone does the slightest murderous and bloody thing against their people, it can lead the whole tribe to raise an army to fight back, and they will not give up until they get something back.

Then he said: Our soldiers have not been on the battlefield for a long time, and when I see them, how can anyone not be timid?

Hearing this, Lu Shui said: Even so, the generals among us will not lose to them. Moreover, our army has more than 100,000 soldiers, how can they be frightened by his mere 20,000 soldiers?

Prime Minister Lu smiled and said, "Scared" is right. Before the war, there were a large number of people and a draw with the barbarians, but since that night the grain and grass were burned and had to retreat into the city, the morale plummeted, and no one dared to fight again. However, Hu Guangwei was not bad, and he dared to petition to fight at that time.

Lu Shui never thought that the people of the barbarian tribe would be so strong, and hearing this today is undoubtedly a slap in the face. Hearing his father say 'Hu Guangwei', Lu Shui smiled and said: He is a fierce man, if there is anyone who can make him dare not fight, I really don't believe it.

Marshal Lu said: Hu Guangwei is indeed good, and he is not afraid of danger. But this war is not as simple as imagined.

When Lu Shui heard this, he hurriedly asked: What did my father say?

Marshal Lu said: The army was forced to retreat into the city, and it was the most difficult time to endure during that time, and I was afraid of attacking the city. At that time, I was thinking that if the barbarians insisted on attacking the city, even if there was a fierce general like Hu Guangwei, I was afraid that it would not be able to withstand a few days' effort.

Hearing this, Lu Shuidao: What my father said is that the barbarians have no intention of attacking the city, but are just feints?

Marshal Lu nodded and said: Although there is a siege, it is far less fierce than when it was fought with us.

Lu Shui asked: In that case, then why did they feint again?

Marshal Lu said: That's true. Have you heard rumors about the Queen?

I didn't want Marshal Lu to talk about Qingqing, Lu Shui didn't know, and asked: What did my father say?

Marshal Lu said: The barbarian general once said that as long as the queen of Xifeng is handed over, they will retreat and not attack.

Lu Shui naturally knew about this, and on the same day, he also received the documents sent by the border master. also relied on those documents, and the rare "joint document folding" of hundreds of officials was also presented to the emperor's royal table. Fortunately, the emperor is dedicated to maintaining it, and everything is fine with Qingqing.

Suddenly thinking about it, Lu Shui couldn't help but be shocked by what he thought. I saw him staring at Marshal Lu, and said in a solemn tone: Could it be that their purpose is to want the 'queen mother'?

Marshal Lu listened and looked. Then he nodded.

The border pass was settled, and in the court, the officials seemed to have forgotten the joint recital, and they no longer had the arrogance they had at that time. In this regard, Yuxuan did not pursue much. only suffered the former city keeper who had become a common man, and worked hard to manage it, but in the end, he saved his life but lost his official position.

Everything was peaceful in the harem, and Yu Xuan often stayed in the Luanjiao Palace, and he sat for a few hours, and an afternoon passed. From this point of view, the emperor's favor for the queen has not decreased, but has intensified, and the people in the palace think that this is the case. People inevitably talk a lot, there is such a big tongue that is not afraid of death, say a few words left and right, and it will be known to everyone in the palace, and others are not sure whether it is true or false, and they can't control their own mouths, and they accidentally say it when chatting with others, and then they are forced to ask by others, and they have no choice but to follow their own thoughts and thoughts in order to save face. At this point, in the last words, how much is true or false?

Coincidentally, people who add oil and vinegar love to cause trouble. Didn't I see a reckless stupid girl rushing to the hall of Chaoxiang Palace, and didn't stop until she came to Du Youlan. hurriedly made a salute, and after Haosheng glanced at the master's eyes, he said: Niangniang, I heard a girl say that the emperor has spoiled the queen and stayed overnight in the Luanjiao Palace!

When Du Youlan heard this, she was taken aback and asked, "Have you asked clearly?"

The girl didn't want to say that the slave listened really well, and it wouldn't be wrong!

That girl is a person sent by the bureau, she can do rough work, she is a person who can be used, just count her broken mouth is not good, and she likes to shout about everything. Du Youlan didn't want to care about her, so she didn't bother to scold a few words. Waiting for the palace maid to drive the girl away, seeing that the master was silent and worried, he stepped forward and said: Niangniang, you don't have to think too much, in a few days, the emperor will come to our palace.

Du Youlan looked at her sideways, and after a long while, she smiled slightly and said, "I don't have anything to do? That's it, you don't have to wait here, go down!

The palace maid trembled and carefully put down the fan, bent her body and bowed, and then carefully walked out of the hall. She was very palpitating, and Du Youlan's eyes frightened her.

Du Youlan was also bored, she was worried about the emperor all day long, and she couldn't see anyone when she wanted to find it, so she asked the fathers-in-law of the Qianqing Palace to do something, but they all seemed to be avoiding people, and if she wanted to ask about Sanren's words, it was just one or two sentences. Du Youlan naturally understood the truth, and after all these days, she endured her temperament and stayed in the palace, hoping that the emperor would come, and even the imperial garden was less, for fear of missing someone.

The weather is hot, and I am in a hurry to feel unwell, so it is just right to stay in the palace. I also heard that the inquirer had reported that the fighting at the border had ceased and that the army had returned to the imperial city. This is really good news, in the past, she was always sent away by words such as "busy government affairs" and "urgent border war", thinking that such days were coming to an end, Du Youlan was overjoyed, and she dressed up more diligently than before.

Who wants to wait left and right, but this is the sentence! Du Youlan has resentment in her heart, resenting the emperor's cruelty, but hating the master of Luanjiao Palace. Counting the tenderness of the past in my heart, and thinking about it carefully, the hatred in my heart became more and more intense, followed by anger.

Outside the hall of Chaoxiang Palace, the palace maids gathered to stare inside the hall. Du Youlan had already broken several vases, and when she saw people walking towards the shelf, the porcelain antiques in that cabinet were about to suffer, and no one stopped them. Du Youlan's ruthlessness, when have they seen it as slaves?
