Chapter 60: Revisiting Mao Xuan
Lu Zuo excitedly begged Mr. Shui Yue to heal the scar on his face, and Mr. Shui Yue waved his hand to signal him not to worry, and to wait for tomorrow to deal with him.
In this way, Mr. Shui Yue went back to the Earl's Mansion with Jing Ruo to reunite with An Yuanshan, and only Yin Ji and the two monks were left to take care of Lu Zuo in the "Peach Crane Xuan", and now that Lu Zuo woke up, Yin Ji was so happy that he didn't want to leave the bed for a moment.
After dinner, the summer was scorching, and the cicadas and birds under the eaves of the porch were really noisy, Yin Ji and the others couldn't stand the noise, but Lu Zuo seemed to be listening to the sound of nature, thinking that he hadn't heard this beautiful music in the world for a long time. Just when a few people were gossiping with Lu Zuo, a voice came from outside the eaves: "Mr. Lu woke up, right?" ”
Lu Zuo motioned for Yin Ji to hurry out and have a look. Less leaning, Yin Ji led the three of them into the house, Lu Zuo squinted, it turned out to be King Ning's father and son. Lu Zuo hurriedly smiled and said: "The grass people can't see the courtesy, please forgive the prince." ”
Ning Wang Liu Xun saw that Lu Zuo really woke up, and laughed, "Mr. Lu doesn't have to be restrained, this king has finally woken you up!" ”
Lu Zuo also smiled knowingly.
Liu Xingyuan, who was behind Liu Xun, took a step, squinted his eyes and asked with a smile, "Does Mr. Lu feel better?" ”
"It's much better, let the prince and his son worry, the grass people are really ashamed! I also heard Ji'er and them say, it was the prince who rescued the grass people from death row, and the grass people are really grateful, and they can't repay it! ”
Liu Xun waved his hand with a strange expression, "Eh, Mr. Lu, you don't have to be polite, how can you say that there is no way to repay it, you survive well is the best reward." ”
Lu Zuo also knew the intention of his words, "How is the situation these days?" ”
"Mr. Lu has just woken up from a serious illness, so let's wait for a little better and we'll discuss these things." Liu Xun also had the heart to ask him, but he still had to talk about polite words, and as soon as he woke up, he took the initiative to talk to Lu Zuo about this, which seemed that his purpose of saving people was too strong.
The corners of Lu Zuo's mouth raised slightly, "I've heard some of Gao Yun's words, but he has just entered the officialdom and knows very little, the prince should know more, you might as well talk about it." ”
"Okay, since Mr. Lu wants to understand, this king will talk about it casually." Liu Xun stared at the two monks and Yin Ji who were bowing their heads and silently beside the bed, and motioned to Lu Zuo to let them out.
Lu Zuo stopped the two monks and said, "Two junior brothers, you go out first, just have Ji'er here to take care of me." ”
The two monks bowed to you and left. Liu Xingzhi also smiled and said: "Mr. Lu, you haven't been there for a lot of things in the past few months......
Without waiting for Liu Xingzhi to continue, his father Liu Xun glanced at him, and Liu Xun answered: "Xunmou was defeated on the front line, does this Mr. Lu know?" ”
Lu Zuo nodded slightly, "They told me this, I heard that the Holy Lord has recalled him, and now An Shiqing, the eldest son of Pingyuan Bo, is the envoy of Lanzhou Jiedu." ”
"Yes." Liu Xun continued, "I don't know why the emperor is very annoyed by this defeat, this king heard the people in the palace say that the emperor often wakes up in the middle of the night and can't sleep these days, I don't know if it has anything to do with this?" ”
"Of course! Originally, after the old marshal Zhou Zhongwang, the emperor had high hopes for Xun Mou, but this time he broke his wings for the first time, I am afraid that the emperor will feel embarrassed and useful. ”
Liu Xun was stunned, "Oh! Mr. Lu is really shrewd, so who do you think he will send next? ”
After thinking for a while, Lu Zuo suddenly felt that his head hurt badly. Lu Zuo's slightly painful expression, Liu Xun seemed to notice it, and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Lu, what's wrong with you?" Is there something uncomfortable? ”
Yin Ji took a bottle of potion from the side of the bed and smeared it on Lu Zuo's forehead a few times, and gradually Lu Zuo felt a lot more comfortable, and said slowly: "'There is no general in Shu, Liao has become a pioneer'!" ”
Liu Xun seemed to understand what Lu Zuo meant, he was right, Xun Mou has always been a rising star that the saint wants to cultivate after Zhou Zhongwang, and it is only a matter of time before he tempers Xun Mou, and one day he will still succeed Zhou Zhongwang as the handsome position, so he pretended to be deep and continued to ask: "Mr. Lu, what do you mean?" ”
"Lord Wang, do you know what the prince wants to compare with you, where he is stronger?" Lu Zuo asked lightly.
Liu Xun was asked by this, and he was half unhappy in his heart, but it was not good to have a seizure, and then he frowned, and he couldn't answer.
Liu Xingzhi said disdainfully: "That Liu Yan still dares to compare with my father, it's too tender!" Isn't Liu Yan just relying on the emperor's ......"
Although Liu Xun wanted to say something in his heart, he also knew that it was really stupid to say this in front of a person like Lu Zuo, so he glanced back at Liu Xingzhi, and Liu Xingzhi swallowed his words back timidly. Liu Xun's face immediately changed again, as if he was compensating Lu Zuo, "Please also ask Mr. Lu to make it clear!" ”
Lu Zuo turned his face sideways and looked at Liu Xun, "The crown prince is strong and he will be available in the future." ”
Liu Xun clapped his fists with his hands and suddenly realized, and then sighed: "Who says it's not, having Xun Mou is equivalent to having the entire army in the future, and once Xun Mou takes the position, no matter how we resist, it will be difficult to be his opponent." Liu Xun sighed in his heart, originally Lu Zuo should be very likely to replace Xun Mou, but now Lu Zuo is crippled and has no reputation, and it is even more difficult to support Lu Zuo than to ascend to the sky.
"Exactly!" Lu Zuofu looked up at the roof again, "So now we should be glad that Xun Mou's army was defeated." ”
Liu Xingyuan only nodded slightly and did not answer, and his younger brother Liu Xingzhi interjected: "What I said is that otherwise Xun Mou's kid will ascend to the sky in one step, at least in the past two years, it will be difficult for Xun Mou to immediately grasp the military power." ”
Liu Xun asked impatiently: "Then what should we do now?" ”
"Huh...... Of course, it is to cultivate the generals who think they have a future first, so as to be the replacement of Zhou Zhongwang in the future, or the replacement of Xun Mou! Lu Zuo said indifferently, he had actually thought of a candidate a long time ago.
"Oh?" Liu Xu was stunned for a moment, "But now there is such a person?" ”
Lu Zuo smiled slightly, "Didn't you forget, Lord Wang, isn't there still him!" ”
"Oh! Right, right! And General Gao Yungao! Liu Xunru got the treasure, but suddenly thought of his brother Gao Han, so he lowered his face again, "But this king heard that his brother and the crown prince are very close, and I heard that the position of General Gao was obtained by the prince for him, I don't know if it's true or not?" ”
Lu Zuo suddenly gasped twice, Yin Ji hurriedly patted Lu Zuo's chest with his hand to give him relief, and only after leaning slowly came back to his senses. Lu Zuo laughed involuntarily, "Lord Wang, do you think that if it was recommended by the crown prince, the emperor would be so obedient to let a junior be promoted several levels in a row and become this extremely important general Jin Wuwei?" ”
