Chapter 219: Determination
Chengguo Gong Lu Jiang lost his control over the Wind Bin Group, and it was difficult for him to hurt Lu Tianyang again.
Ah Jiu had already set the goal of entering the palace and worked towards the goal step by step.
Now Lu Tianyang's biggest backer is the King of Qi, and the King of Qi's power is extremely beneficial to Lu Tianyang, so Ah Jiu first smoothed out the King of Qi from Beijing without authorization, giving the prince a setback that is not light or heavy, so that the princes and kings do not dare to unite to attack the King of Qi.
Although she has a father and a grandfather as a backer, Mo Guanjie and Jiang Shoufu can love her like life, but it is impossible to stand on the side of Lu Tianyang and King Qi without principles in court affairs.
It is very important to increase the strength of Lu Tianyang.
It's shameful to waste time, and after knowing Lu Tianyang's ambitions, Ah Jiu is very attentive to his public office. Lu Tianyang rarely hid it from Ah Jiu, and Ah Jiu knew a lot about the Wind Corps.
Seeing Ah Jiu's confident appearance, the lord of Zhaohua County was secretly worried, and just wanted to stop Ah Jiu, Emperor Shenwu asked with great interest: "What the prince of Chengguo has done, I also want to hear about it." ”
"Lu Tianyang is not jealous of Feng'er for a day or two, he must have slandered Feng'er behind his back, Ah Jiu...... Don't let him fool you. ”
"Jealous of Lu Shizi? What to be jealous of him? Lu Shizi is more talented than him? Or is he more handsome than him? ”
“…… Jealous Feng'er has the love of her parents. Lord Zhaohua reluctantly figured out the reason, "That's right, Lu Jiang doesn't like him, I'm ...... It is impossible to treat him as his own flesh and blood, and his provocations again and again are just to make Lu Jiang notice him. ”
"Have you forgotten His Royal Highness the King of Qi, with the King of Qi, who still needs to become the Duke of Chengguo?"
"It's not the same. No matter how good King Qi is to him, they are not biological father and son, this is different. ”
"Nurturing grace is greater than giving birth. Everyone can see the sincerity of King Qi to Hou Ye, Cheng Guogong has always been silent and introverted, and this time he disregarded Hou Ye's safety for the sake of the so-called remnants. They are indeed different from Hou Ye, but one is sincere and the other is false. ”
Who is physically and mentally self-evident.
"Ah Jiu, don't talk about the Lu family in the court, and I want to argue with Zhaohua and go back to your Yuhou Mansion to talk about it." Emperor Shenwu interrupted Ah Jiu, who was off topic. "My only concern is if something is wrong with the Windrush Corps."
"Since Hou Ye went to the corps as the deputy commander, he has suffered a lot and been harassed, but it is worth it. Hou Ye has been honed more and more brilliantly, and now the soldiers of the corps are convinced that Hou Ye has a lot. It is not an exaggeration to say that Hou Ye can at least control most of the corps. ”
"Most?"
Emperor Shenwu's eyes lit up, "Is this true?" ”
"Hou Ye took care of the last trace of brotherhood and took the initiative to find Lu Shizi, who traveled in Beijing." Ah Jiu didn't give Emperor Shenwu a clear answer. "Lu Shizi has the county lord and Chengguo Gong as backers. He is naturally fearless, he doesn't know what fear is, no matter how big a mess he breaks into, the county lord will help clean it up. ”
"He can still be the prince of the world in a beautiful way, and he can still have a bright future and wealth that is difficult for the world to achieve."
"It's just that the county lord thinks that letting him travel out of Beijing can hide his mistakes?"
"Ah Jiu ......"
The county lord of Zhaohua was a little flustered, Ah Jiu was too aggressive, she had long been suspicious of Lu Lingfeng's sudden departure from Beijing, and she reluctantly agreed to it because of her son's plea and Lu Jiang's great truth of becoming a talent.
Could it be that there is a cat in it?
"There are two columns in the Wind Regiment, which Lu Shizi personally drilled. The secret of the charging formation has been mastered, but the news has been leaked. ”
"What?"
Emperor Shenwu stood up from the dragon chair. "Lu Lingfeng, he should be damned."
"Lu Shizi is greedy for beauty...... Hou Ye is Lu Shizi found in the largest Fengyue place, although the beauty plan is a clumsy strategy, it can be used on men but it has been tried and tested, and it can often have excellent results. ”
Emperor Shenwu coughed twice in embarrassment, and sat back in the dragon chair, since it had been blocked by Lu Tianyang and Lu Jiang, the secret had not been completely revealed.
"Besides, the corps's food and salary account books are in shambles, and there is a shortage of 10,000 taels of silver and military rations worth more than 10,000 yuan."
"Feng'er hasn't taken care of this, and the lack of food and salary is not to blame on him." The county lord of Zhaohua argued strongly.
Ah Jiu's eyes were deep, and he sighed slightly, "I'm afraid it will be difficult for Prince Mu to rest in peace in the heavens, I heard my father-in-law say that Lord Mu hates the most is the person who is greedy for military salaries, and he governs the army very strictly, but he is like a brother to the soldiers, and he would rather eat himself than let his subordinates fight hungry." ”
The county lord of Zhaohua hung his head in shame, and said stiffly: "Feng'er can't do things that are greedy for ink, and I have taught him too...... Besides, he eats the best, and I haven't shorted his money, so he doesn't need to be greedy for money at all. ”
"The county lord underestimated Lu Shizi, the more silver the better, if you didn't teach him, he would remember it. The account books of the Corps have never been made public, and there are a lot of cats, even if Lu Shizi does it, no one will find out about him, in the eyes of the world, Lu Shizi is the future commander of the Corps. ”
"He's not!"
In the past, Emperor Shenwu may have agreed to appoint Lu Lingfeng as the commander in Zhaohua's face, but now he found a more loyal and capable Lu Tianyang, so he naturally dispelled his previous thoughts, "I ordered Marquis Yu Lu Tianyang to be the commander of the Wind Corps." ”
"Uncle."
"Zhaohua, virtuous, Lu Tian cultivates talent and knowledge, and he wins a lot of riding and archery skills against Lu Lingfeng. The Four Legions are the foundation of the Empire, and I can't afford to hand over one of them to a lustful and greedy man. At the beginning, I had promised Lu Jiang that I would not meddle in the affairs of the Corps lightly. ”
Emperor Shenwu is very thick-skinned, and his lying face does not change, "I have fulfilled my promise over the years. The corps is still under the command of the Lu family, and there are other arrangements for Lu Lingfeng. ”
"How can you listen to Ah Jiu's words? She...... I was influenced by Lu Tianyang and hated me. ”
The county lord of Zhaohua could not accept that his biological son lost the right of inheritance, and Chengguo Gong was just an empty title, and with the corps in hand, Chengguo Gong would be respected by the world.
"Is it true or not, can you let people find out?"
"Okay." Emperor Shenwu nodded, "I will let people check it well, no matter who makes a mistake, I will punish it severely." ”
"Your Majesty is wise."
Ah Jiu cooperated with Emperor Shenwu tacitly, and he understood that he had to smile at Emperor Shenwu. "I will replace Hou Ye Xie Majesty Xià Longen, Hou Ye is willing to bow and die for His Majesty."
"Marquis Yu is loyal to me, and I will not treat him badly. I have always had clear rewards and punishments. If Yu Hou mishandled it, his talent was not enough to control the Wind Legion or something went wrong, I removed him, and Ah Jiu should not come to me to intercede at that time. ”
"Incompetent people should not be in important positions, I am not indistinguishable from wrong, Hou Ye can't bear this responsibility, no need to say it. Hou Ye will take the initiative to abdicate and make way for Xian, and I will not come to find His Majesty. ”
Emperor Shenwu got up directly and walked towards the outside of the Taihe Palace, followed by Gonggong Ma. At the entrance of the main hall, "Let's disperse." ”
"Congratulations to Your Majesty."
Everyone has their own thoughts, but everyone can see that Yuhou Lu Tianyang's power has risen greatly.
Jiang Shoufu walked up to Ah Jiu and shook his head disapprovingly. "You're too anxious."
"Grandpa. I'm afraid...... Afraid of continuous trouble, today he was rescued by His Royal Highness the King of Qi, Ming'er...... If he encounters danger again, who can guarantee that he will be infected and unharmed? You don't know how scared I was to see him being carried back. ”
Ah Jiu's eyes were red, and he didn't have the calmness of Fang Cai at all, and he looked at the county lord of Zhaohua who was slowly getting up with a little hatred.
The eyes of the two happened to meet one place. Ah Jiu resented the ruthlessness of the county lord of Zhaohua, how could the county lord of Zhaohua not hate Ah Jiu for taking away Lu Lingfeng's official position?
"Do you have to go against me?" Lord Zhaohua said sharply.
"I also want to say if you can let go of the past? Who is really suffering? You put up with it back then. Why bother him? He's the most innocent, right? ”
Ah Jiu faced the county lord of Zhaohua, his eyes were misty, crystal clear, "If you can't even figure out right and wrong, if you have to go all the way to the dark, you will definitely regret it if you have to suffer in the future...... I regret my connivance with Lu Lingfeng, I regret forgiving Cheng Guogong, I just said the beauty trick, and there are also people who will use the beauty trick, you should be more careful. ”
Jiang Shoufu patted Ah Jiuyin's shoulder, which trembled slightly with anger, comfortingly, "I'll send you back." ”
"I'll send it, I'll send it to my daughter-in-law."
King Qi suddenly took a step forward, "It just so happens that I'm going to see the condition of Tianyang." ”
"Your Highness." Jiang Shoufu frowned slightly, "Marquis Yu is in control of the Wind Legion, and the prince should think twice before acting, so it will be beneficial to both Marquis Yu and the prince." ”
"Jiang Shoufu doesn't think it's too late to let this king not get close to the heavens now?" King Qi raised his eyebrows provocatively, "What annoys me the most is your concerns, who is close to you to measure it, and measure it." Not to mention that Tianyang only mastered the Wind Legion, that is, he mastered the elite of the whole empire, and I couldn't have a share with him. ”
Didn't Jiang Shoufu know that he couldn't break King Qi and Lu Tianyang at this time? Secretly annoyed, King Qi didn't even do superficial articles.
It's happy, but the consequences are ...... But it is not something that Lu Tianyang and Ah Jiu can bear at this time.
After pondering for a moment, Jiang Shoufu said: "Or I will send Ah Jiu, the prince cares about Yu Hou, you can go to see Yu Hou." ”
"Old man ginger......"
"His Royal Highness the King of Qi, please respect the old minister, how can you say that the old minister has the false title of the prince's teacher, respect the teacher and respect the teacher, don't need the old man to teach His Royal Highness the King of Qi again."
"No, no." King Qi shook his head again and again, his face was slightly pale, and he looked very nervous, "Lord Shoufu sent Ah Jiu back, this king ...... I'll go to see Tianyang tomorrow. ”
Ah Jiu had never seen King Qi leave so sluggishly, "Grandfather? ”
Jiang Shoufu has never given face to King Qi, and King Qi will discipline him as a teacher if he has a slight problem, and the more people there are, the more ruthless King Qi will become.
There are other candidates for the crown prince and the prince, and Jiang Shoufu is the teacher of the rest of the princes and kings.
"King Qi...... People in temperament will succeed and fail. ”
Jiang Shoufu's eyes were slightly complicated, as if he was sighing something, but this complexity was fleeting, and he bowed to the lord of Zhaohua County, "The old minister takes a step ahead." ”
No matter when, Jiang Shoufu can always fulfill his courtesy, the last moment he quarreled with the eldest princess, and the next moment he still respected the eldest princess.
Ah Jiu followed behind him, listening to his grandfather's lesson, "Ah Jiu still wants to quarrel with the county lord again?" ”
“……”
"You can argue with reason, but there's no need to argue about who's right and who's wrong." Jiang Shoufu trained his granddaughter with his heart, "In front of outsiders, even if you win the quarrel, you can't prove anything, but let others despise you." ”
"I remember."
Ah Jiu helped his grandfather to get into the carriage, "Next time, I will definitely not fight with the county lord of Zhaohua outside." ”
Seeing that his grandfather's face softened slightly, Ah Jiu defended himself slightly, "I understand what you said, sometimes I just can't help it, grandpa...... I was also annoyed that the lord of the county had repeatedly harmed my husband, and sometimes I pitied her. In response to that saying, there must be something hateful about the wretched. ”
"Huh? What does this mean? ”
"You don't have to worry about the trivial matters in the Chengguo Mansion, I will take care of it."
The belly of the fish on the horizon was white, and in the blink of an eye, the morning glow faintly penetrated into the carriage.
Ah Jiu brought the ginseng tea prepared on the carriage to his grandfather, his parents were far away in Jiangnan, Ah Jiu regarded his grandfather's family as the closest person, and whispered: "I told you, my father and him...... The affairs of the Mo family, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is as pitiful and hateful, their mother and daughter are really alike. The eldest princess had much better luck than she did. ”
Originally, Ah Jiu thought that his grandfather was not interested in listening to these mundane things, but in fact, Jiang Shoufu listened very seriously, "Lord Mu is very good to the eldest princess, do you mean that Duke Cheng Guo is ruthless to the county lord?" ”
"It's not good to say, Chengguo Gong is gentle and considerate to the county lord, and he is obedient, but it's different."
"What's different?" Jiang Shoufu asked in detail, as if he was asking about major matters related to the empire, without any embarrassment, "Why is it different?" ”
"It's different from the feeling of Hou Ye towards me."
Ah Jiu's cheeks were slightly red, and Jiang Shoufu's smiling eyes looked at it, and he felt even more shy.
"Silly girl, you shouldn't be shy, but happy."
Jiang Shoufu has been watching Lu Tianyang all the way, even he must admit that Mo Guanjie's choice of son-in-law is very good, Lu Tianyang really has to treat Ah Jiu as his heart, even if Ah Jiu occasionally does not understand the amorous feelings, he still pays without regrets and warms Ah Jiu.
What he couldn't even do, Lu Tianyang did it even better than he thought.
Because of this, Jiang Shoufu will never tolerate someone ruining Lu Tianyang and ruining his granddaughter's happiness for a lifetime.
"Tianyang's future doesn't need to worry if you don't come forward, he is the same as King Qi...... There is always a definite number, I can't say much at the moment, I will help him at a critical time, and focus on talking to me about the Lu family. ”
The blush on Ah Jiu's face faded slightly, and after thinking about it, he said:
"I always feel that the Lu family is full of weirdness. The county lord has paid a lot for the Lu family, and Mrs. Lu is afraid that she has never taken a fancy to the county lord, so in order to fight for power, she has hinted several times that I should be careful of the county lord and stand aside with her. Sometimes I think she can't wait for Lu Tianyang to die with the county lord of Zhaohua. I have always felt that my grandmother is excellent enough, gentle and loving, and the words and deeds of Mrs. Lu are even more strange. Back then, the county lord saved the lives of their Lu family......"
"Back then? When? ”
"Before the county lord gave birth to Lu Lingfeng."
"I seem to have heard the eldest princess talk about this, when your mother was still in the boudoir, the county lord was a good close friend with her, and your mother also inquired about home remedies for her to recuperate for postpartum weakness."
Jiang Shoufu breathed a sigh of relief, "Everyone does things for a purpose and for a reason, no one can pretend to be a lifetime, and there will always be leaks." Since you were able to see through your grandmother's tricks, it was also based on bold speculation and carefully verified...... Tianyang is a man after all, there are not many times in the back house, and his heart is not as delicate as you, and it is up to you to dig out the secrets of the Lu family. First of all, you have to keep your mind steady, you can't favor anyone because of your preferences, and look at the Lu family as a bystander. ”
"Grandpa also thinks that the Lu family has secrets?"
Ah Jiu's heart trembled, and an indescribable feeling came up, "I don't want to explore, I always feel that once the truth is revealed, the result is not what everyone wants to see, and now I just want to stay away from them with Lu Tianyang." ”
"Can you get out of the way?"
“……”
"Some things can be difficult to be confused, some things must be made clear, whether you want to or not, the truth is always there, in my opinion, you and Tianyang have no way to get by, and you can live a lifetime of confusion."
Jiang Shoufu encouraged Ah Jiu trustingly, "You are very smart, and you dare to conspire, with us behind your husband and wife, even if the result is unsatisfactory, it will not cause you much harm, Mrs. Lu and Chengguo Gong, or the eldest princess of Zhaohua County are not qualified to manipulate your husband and wife." ”
"I see." Ah Jiuqiao smiled, "Grandpa, I think I understand what to do." (To be continued......)
