Chapter 177: The Triumph of the Great Army

When Mrs. Lu heard her son say that she was going to hold another wedding in the township to show her filial piety, she couldn't help crying for a while.

Everyone was puzzled, and Qin Fu asked, "Why is my sister-in-law crying, this is a good thing!" ”

"I'm so happy!" The old lady smiled and wiped her tears, "If only his father were still alive." ”

When talking about Lu Zuo's father, the anger in the room suddenly changed, and Lu Xiuyuan and Qin Fu unconsciously lowered their heads and fell into deep thought. Looking at Lu Zuo sitting next to him quietly, Lu Zuo hurriedly smiled and said, "Mother, I think my father must be very happy if he is alive!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" The old lady suddenly understood that she shouldn't bring up the old matter again, so she quickly changed the topic, "When you were married to someone from Fengji Mountain last time, it was a mixture of joy and sorrow!" Thinking that my son can start a family, I should have no regrets. But when I think about it, my mother can't watch you get married, and my heart is sour, and now you have this filial piety, how can you not let your mother be happy! ”

The old lady said this, but Lu Zuo had a different thought, remembering his brother Lu Renxiang who was still in Suzhou, and couldn't help hiding his face sadly, everyone was puzzled, only the old lady slowly stood up, walked to Lu Zuo's side, and comforted: "My son doesn't have to be sad, presumably your brother Renxiang will also be happy for you." ”

In the past two days, Lujiazhuang can be described as a gathering of wind and clouds, and suddenly there are many heroes and heroes, officials and scholars, all of whom are here to cheer for Lu Zuo, and the brothers of Fengjishan, including Qin Hong and Lu Manxi, as well as the former classmates of Shanlan Erzhou, as well as the officials who have made friends, have also rushed to Lujiazhuang on the 17th. On the eighteenth day of the winter month, Lujiazhuang ushered in an unprecedented grand day, and all the old and young in the village came to set up a table to celebrate, and everyone was drunk and unhappy that night.

After a day of carnival, everyone left the next day, and An Shiqing and other officials said goodbye early in the morning because they had important matters. In the afternoon of the same day, Lu Zuo and others also bid farewell to the old lady together. So the group left under the eyes of the whole village, young and old. After passing through Fengji Mountain, Qin Fu repeatedly invited Lu Zuo to go up the mountain for a hangover night, but Lu Zuo politely declined in order to be in a hurry. Lu Xiuyuan was sullen but was thinking about another thing, so he asked Lu Zuodao: "Zuo'er, you said that if the emperor really wants us to enter Beijing to receive the reward this time, then what should we do?" ”

Lu Zuo shook his head, "No! Don't rush out of the mountain, now we have half of the success, your current strength is very important, as long as you are in Shanzhou, this side is ours, so we can advance and retreat freely, once you enter Beijing to be rewarded, then our cottage of 10,000 or 20,000 troops will also be accepted by the imperial court, then we will lose more than we lose. ”

"But......" Lu Xiuyuan was suspicious, "will the emperor agree that we will continue to stay in this cottage?" ”

"I've been thinking about this question for a long time, remember my nephew's words - don't get sick." Lu Zuo said, "In the court, I will also try my best to dissuade the emperor and let you stay in Fengji Mountain." ”

Qin Hong looked at Senior Brother very reluctantly, "Senior Brother, I don't know when I will see you again when you go." ”

Lu Zuo smiled, "Senior brother will come back to see you when he has time." ”

"No hassle, no hassle." Qin Hong turned sadness into joy, "I can go to the capital to find you and my sister-in-law to play with." ”

"You little girl, it's clear that you're just going to play, where do you want to be a senior brother!"

Lu Manxi also smiled and said, "Senior brother, don't worry, I will escort the little junior sister to the capital safely at that time." ”

Lu Xiuyuan said with a straight face: "You two don't want to go anywhere, stay in the village honestly." Then he said to Lu Zuo, "This retreat is still with you to go back to Beijing, you still have a care in Beijing like this, if you have any insights and difficulties, let him send someone to inform me." ”

Lu Zuo arched his hand, "Listen to the second uncle's orders." ”

"Then don't leave it here, the capital is waiting for your good news."

After the two sides said goodbye, Lu Zuo, Jing Jingruo, Yin Ji, and Chen Hui quickly chased Gao Yun's brigade, and when they caught up, they were about to arrive in the capital.

The army returned to the dynasty after victory, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, the whole country ate pot pulp to welcome the king's division, and the Han Emperor also ordered to reward the three armies, and set up a banquet to comfort the generals. After this victory, Gao Yun was promoted to the third rank, sealed the post of general of the town army, and rewarded a number of mansions with gold and silver cloth. Lu Zuo also added officials to the counselor, rewarded a number of gold and silver cloths, and the rest of the generals were also promoted to one level. For this reason, the whole city carnival for three days, the whole country celebrates.

After the carnival, Kyoto has also entered the wax moon season, and the weather is getting colder and colder, because Lu Zuo has been busy parading the streets in the past few days, and has no time to meet with Liu Xun, the king of Ning, thinking that after the matter is done, he will find a time to visit the king of Ning. On this day of the first day of the lunar month, although the cold was pressing, Lu Zuo still got up very early, and after being quiet and hurriedly waiting for him to wash, he hurriedly woke up Yin Ji, and the two went straight to Xinghua Restaurant, crossed the secret passage, and came to the palace.

Lu Zuo hurried to the door of the side hall, and when he raised his eyes to look into the hall, he saw that the prince was sitting in the hall drinking morning tea, so he bowed down and said, "Lu Zuo has come to greet the prince!" ”

Liu Xun hurriedly stood up and walked to Lu Zuo in small steps, "Mr. Lu doesn't have to be polite, come in and sit." Yin Ji, you can come in too! Liu Xun said as he respectfully helped Lu Zuo into the side hall.

After the two sat down, Liu Xun said with a stunned expression: "Mr. Lu is not here for a few months, but he can look bad for this king!" ”

"Did something happen? In the past two days, I have been busy with official business and have not been free, but there is some news in the DPRK and China, and I have heard some after I returned. ”

"Now some of the original vacancies in the court have been filled by the prince's people, but the king is in a hurry to death."

"This is also something that Lu expected, the prince didn't say anything to the emperor, right?"

"The king is silent on this matter, as you commanded."

Lu Zuo buried his head and fell into deep contemplation, "The prince is right to do this, the faster they move, the more worried the emperor will be, I believe that as long as we find a way to add fuel to the fire and make the emperor fearful, then everything they have done before will be in vain." ”

Liu Xun suddenly realized, "Oh! It turns out that Mr. Lu, you mean this, it's really high, so it seems that it is not a good thing for them to be in such a hurry to install so many henchmen in the DPRK? ”

"Hmm......" Lu Zuo nodded, "That's right! Now it's time for us to fight back. ”
