As soon as the news of Emperor Yinyuan's death and the succession of the five princes was confirmed, the officials in Beijing immediately dispersed, and hurried to one post station after another, spreading the matter of changing the emperor to every inch of territory under the rule of Da Yin as quickly as possible.

A few days after Lu Yuanshao's front foot arrived at the border pass, Shen Han's flying pigeon on the back foot arrived at the barracks.

Knowing that Gu Jinglan was named regent in Emperor Yinyuan's will, Lu Yuanshao didn't react at once, and for a moment, the whole person was stunned.

His first reaction was to go back to Beijing, go back, lead the troops back, and hurry back!

Zhao Junchi called out to Lu Yuanshao, who was about to rush out: "--What are you running!" Come back to Lao Tzu! ”

Zhao Junchi picked up the teacup and sneered at Lu Yuanshao: "Bear with it, kid!" ”

"--He is not the regent, what can you do with him!"

Lu Yuanshao paused, and there was a huge bitterness in his heart, and he couldn't refute it for a while.

He only said that after his uncle became the regent, his hope of getting him was even slimmer...... However, even if Uncle Xiao was only a small county magistrate in Lin'an County, he might not be able to really chase people down.

"Lu San is in the same vein as Shen Han, he is a disciple he personally picked, and this cold-hearted temperament is also very good."

Zhao Junchi said: "Ben Hou has been fighting at the border for more than ten years, and he has been in charge of these 200,000 troops so that Shen Han has to give a good face for the sake of the intersection of interests!" ”

"You little pioneer officer!" Zhao Junchi threw down the teacup and said sharply: "You just want to stand in front of Lu San and have no confidence!" ”

Lu Yuanshao was silent.

"You don't have to worry about their safety." Zhao Junchi got up, brushed his sleeves and left: "All the people in the Zhao Mansion in the capital are dispatched by Shen Han, and he will definitely protect Lu Sanquan." ”

"One is the head of the court, and the other is the regent...... It is the two of them who should be glad that they have climbed these positions, and if they change others, I am afraid that they will meet the wishes of Emperor Yinyuan. ”

The regent and the first assistant of the current dynasty, these two positions were already fighting for power, and Emperor Yinyuan arranged Gu Jinglan and Shen Han in these two positions, which did not mean to let them contain each other.

Even...... Deliberate discord is not impossible.

But fortunately, not everyone is so dirty, at least Shen Han and Gu Jinglan are open-minded and work together to manage the government, and there is no discord, which makes the jaws of those who are waiting to see a good show drop.

It was really difficult for Gu Jinglan and Shen Han to ascend to a high position in Beijing for the first time, especially Gu Jinglan, a prince who appeared out of thin air, and his identity was indeed a little difficult to convince the public, but where Emperor Yinyuan's will was clearly placed, there was nothing others could do.

There is malice in all directions, and the two people in Beijing can hardly move an inch, and there is resistance to what they do.

Fortunately, the allies at the border are considerate and powerful.

Since Lu Yuanshao was tamed by Zhao Junchi once, he temporarily put down his mind to return to Beijing. Turning around, he immediately threw himself into the battle, and his anger was directed on the enemy.

His talent in the art of war and strategy since he was a child is very comparable, and at this time, under the strong drive of his heart, he went all out to let go of his hands and do it, and within three months, he returned to the three cities!

The good news reached the capital, and with it, there were 10,000 soldiers who had just come down from the battlefield and returned bloody! The lord of the city, who was full of fierce murderous aura and was shocked, did not dare to say a word more.

These 10,000 soldiers were directly stationed in the Gyeonggi battalion, and all the soldiers belonging to the original Gyeonggi battalion went to the border pass and went to the battlefield for actual combat training!

Gu Jinglan threw the good news to the center of the court, and hit the faces of the ministers who were secretly using the means - no matter what he thought about, he was overwhelmed by this real work of opening up the territory.

Especially a year later, Lu Yuanshao returned to the five cities of Su, almost half of its territory! Then he personally pressed a convoy of gold, silver, jewelry, and full of booty to return to Beijing, and the pro-military barracks of the army walked on the central avenue of the capital, and the momentum of black pressure suppressed this flashy and splendid city at once.

Lu Yuanshao personally sent the map of the territory that expanded the border territory to Gu Jinglan, grabbed his fingers and refused to let go, only looked at Gu Jinglan deeply, his eyes as black as a deep pool contained unbreakable affection.

Gu Jinglan's heart trembled, and she withdrew her hand.

"Uncle." Lu Yuanshao said: "Everything I did was for you. ”

“…………”

Gu Jinglan didn't dare to take the territory map.

What's so ......

I look like I'm receiving a dowry!!

*********************************************

Fortunately, Lu Yuanshao did not stay in Beijing for a long time, the situation he laid down has not yet ended, and Hui Hui has only half of it, so it is impossible to really let it go like this...... Moreover, General Lu thinks that since it is a "dowry", then how can it be enough to only half a huifu.

Five-year ...... It took Lu Yuanshao five years to reclaim the territory in the west, Jiaozhi in the south, and Tatar in the north, from a small vanguard officer to a general Lu with 300,000 fierce soldiers in his hands, and the people under his command were more than 100,000 more than Zhao Junchi.

Only twenty-two years old, General Lu.

His fortune in this life seems to have reached its peak at this age.

He is young and powerful, as long as he wants to, even if he sets himself up as a king, it will not be a problem.

It's just that he still treats Zhao Jun as a half-teacher, and he still treats the person in Beijing...... Forever keep in mind.

Heavy snow fell from the sky, falling on the cold armor, and a thin layer was piled up silently.

"It's winter......" Lu Yuanshao reached out to catch the snowflakes and muttered.

He turned to look at the capital thousands of miles away, inside the red wall of Biwa, and wondered if the person he was thinking about was also looking at the snow.

"Withdraw the troops, retreat to Shouyang Pass." Lu Yuanshao turned around and left: "Survive them for another winter, see how many of them can be killed, and wait for the winter to pass, and then fight again." ”

The Tatars have been fighting for two years...... He hasn't been back to Beijing for two years.

This winter...... He wanted to go back and see.

At that time, he only thought that he would save a lot of effort by boiling Tatar for another winter, and waiting for the spring to fight again...... At that time, he didn't know that this tribe that he had driven to the end would make his heart ache when he was dying and fighting back.

The Tatars tried their best to find out, saying that the ruthless General Lu was young and bumpy, and he did not recognize his father or mother all his life, but only recognized an uncle who picked him up when he was a teenager and taught him to read and write, and to teach him to read and write, and to learn the art of war.

The uncle is not a pro-uncle, but the illegitimate son of the first emperor of the Yin Dynasty who was fostered in the Lu Mansion, and is now His Royal Highness the regent of the Yin Dynasty.

The Tatars were almost desperate for a while, they originally planned to arrest someone to blackmail Lu Yuanshao to withdraw from the army, or if they couldn't catch him, they could kill them directly - Lu Butcher exterminated half of their clan, and he should always let him taste the loss of his love.

But since the target is the regent, there must be layers of people protecting the trip, how to get it?

Hearing that the enemy's butcher general was going back to Beijing, the Tatar spies were ruthless and followed all of them.

I don't know if there is a fixed number in the dark, Lu Yuanshao has all the power, wealth, fame, fortune and glory in this life, and he has achieved it in 20 years to the point that others may not be able to do in a hundred years...... The common white-headed lover in the fate of this person will not reach him in any case.

When he thought that he had done almost enough, and had enough capital to stand in front of Gu Jinglan and say, "I protect you...... Gu Jinglan is gone.

Yinren is the eighteenth month of the fifth year.

Lu Yuanshao still remembers that day clearly.

That day, he rarely coaxed Gu Jinglan out of the palace, and wanted to take him to a hot spring village on the outskirts of Beijing to see the peach blossoms that were a wonder in winter. Because he said that he had not returned to Beijing for a long time, and he didn't know some places in Beijing anymore, Gu Jinglan patiently walked side by side with him in the bustling street market.

He deliberately let the guards follow from a distance, deliberately creating the image of the two being alone.

…… But I didn't expect that the Tatars would take advantage of the loophole like this.

The three Tatars who were lurking on the side of the road suddenly burst out, and all of them attacked the death hole on Gu Jinglan's body, making a one-hit killing move. Lu Yuanshao was still a few steps away, and he only had time to kill two of them with all his might, but in the end, he let the third person get his hand, and watched Gu Jinglan's abdomen pierced by a sharp bamboo pole and fell to the ground weakly.

"Uncle, uncle......"

Lu Yuanshao's thoughts in his ears were trembling with fear. Gu Jinglan's consciousness was actually blurred, and her eyes couldn't focus clearly, so she could only see Lu Yuanshao's blurred face.

Death came so suddenly, he didn't have time to think about anything - yes, he knew he was going to die, life was like sand flowing through his body, so fast that he couldn't grasp it.

"I don't blame you." Gu Jinglan only wanted to say this, and he didn't know if he had said it or not, so he kept repeating: "I don't blame you...... Don't beat yourself up. ”

"Don't blame ...... You ......" Gu Jinglan said: "...... Don't beat yourself up. ”

Lu Yuanshao hugged his gradually cold body and cried hoarsely.

The voice was so grief-stricken that the listeners couldn't bear it.

It snowed again in the sky, and it was blowing one after another, and in a blink of an eye, a layer was spread on the ground, and Lu Yuanshao was all over his shoulders. The henchmen guarded in the distance, looking at the indestructible general kneeling in the snow, holding the corpse and saying nothing, he didn't dare to come forward to disturb him at all.

It wasn't until dawn that Lu Yuanshao got up, walked back to the palace step by step with Gu Jinglan's body in his arms, personally placed it in the coffin of the golden silk nanmu, closed the lid inch by inch, and then said in a low voice: "Funeral with the prince's ceremony." ”

The guards knew from his voice that their indestructible general was back again, and when they saw Lu Yuanshao's expression and took two steps back, they trembled and retracted their previous words - their indestructible general was indeed back, but this time it was really fearless and indestructible.

In the past, the general's eyes were full of vivid popularity, but now they are gray and lifeless.

It's like those magnificent, ornate, ingenious buildings that collapsed into ruins in an instant.

After seven days of suspension, Lu Yuanshao did not close his eyes.

Never leave an inch, stay before the spirit.

After Gu Jinglan was buried
