Chapter 26 Heroes are self-defeating

Everyone has a destiny, and God is destined for it.

Some people are born rich, but they can't die well.

Someone who defeats the battle of dogs can eventually be kings.

So we must not go with the flow.

People can control their own destiny.

My name is Sima Jue.

Nicknamed Crow, a disciple of the Guigu faction.

I learned Qimen Dunjia.

Originally, I just wanted to live a simple life.

But fate played a joke on me.

So I decided to fight back against fate.

The first target is "Polestar".

——

"Wen Xi Pei Qing, the sect leader of the Pei family, married six wives and concubines, and still has no heirs? Are you sure? ”

"Hmm."

"The morning after tomorrow, Er Zhurong will return to Luoyang to meet the emperor and participate in a large-scale winter hunting activity on the scale of the whole army?"

"Hmm."

"Is the information reliable?"

"Don't worry, you don't know the name I asked."

"Well, that's good." Sima Jue took out a gold ingot from his bosom, handed it to a man dressed as a beggar, turned around and left. "It's hard work, next time I have work, I'll contact again."

The beggar weighed and weighed, the amount was enough, the color was enough, nodded and smiled, and he was satisfied, and turned around to leave.

Sima Jue suddenly turned around, and when he raised his hand, there were three steel needles, right in the back of the beggar's heart.

"You ......" The beggar spun his body, like a leaf in the wind, and after saying only one word, he fell to the ground and died.

Well, now no one but myself knows this important information.

Sima Jue shook his robe, covered his face with a feather fan, walked out of the dark alley, and blended into the crowd.

——

The southern suburbs of Luoyang, Yichuan County.

Lu Mansion is lit up.

It may be that he knows that there are distinguished guests coming to the door today, and the heavens are also beautiful, and a rare round of warm winter sun rises and shines warmly on people.

Da Xi was lazy and napping on his horse, and Yang Guang was still on horseback.

Willow leaves beat horses. The same lazy, not far or near, followed by him.

Ludo in front, leading the horse, seriously, and walking towards the gate.

From a distance, I saw a pretty figure, standing among the people coming and going.

Dressed in goose yellow and white skirts and draped in a scarf, he is waving to this side.

It is Miss Lu Fu, Lu Xiangqin.

"Duoduo, Duoduo, I'm here!"

"Miss." Ludo smiled.

"Isn't it hard?" Lu Xiangqin took out the water bladder.

Looking at this scene, Da Xibing spit out a smoke ring and turned his face to look at Liu Ye.

Liu Ye also smiled lightly.

I have never seen such a master and servant who love and help each other and have equal status.

"Is it really okay for you guys to do this? The lord of the house doesn't care? "Sister Bing'er is still as sharp as ever.

"Daddy has already acquiesced!" Lu Xiangqin shouted. "Sister Bing'er, I haven't seen you for a long time, I'll ask questions when we meet."

"Okay, okay, don't get tired of it, take us in!" Da Xibing couldn't stand it anymore.

"Sister Bing'er, this is ......" Lu Xiangqin was surprised when he saw Yang Guang on horseback, who was tied like a zongzi. Are you looking for a husband, have you already started to use the robbery? ”

"Ahem, a hostage, it's fine. Don't talk nonsense. Da Xibing felt that no matter how he explained, he was quite powerless, so he said lightly, got off the horse, and accompanied him into the gate of the mansion.

"Is it related to that mysterious organization?" Lu Xiangqin asked as he walked.

"What? How do you know? Da Xibing was taken aback.

I just joined "Pole Star", how could I be seen through by this girl so easily?

How perceptual is this?

"You wrote to me! How did you forget? It's called a stealth maneuver! Lu Xiangqin's face was simple.

"Huh? Oh...... That's right...... The old guy forced me in...... It's boring. Only then did Da Xibing know that he had a false alarm.

It wasn't the recent, it scared me to death.

I am "Kaiyang", and only a few people in the world know about it.

Safe and secure.

Da Xibing touched his chest with his hand, so frightened that his heart almost stopped.

Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Ludo seemed to have a frowning expression in a flash.

This mandarin duck eye, you won't find anything, right?

I have always heard that Lu Xiangqin has a personal guard called "Duoduo", who can use his natural two-color pupils to see everything and have a keen insight beyond ordinary people.

Looks, be careful.

——

Push Yang Guang into the firewood room and lock it up.

Lu Xiangqin took Da Xi Bing, and after returning to his room to change back into women's clothes, several people went to the lively lobby.

Here, see that everyone's busy feet don't touch the ground.

In the middle of the room, there was a middle-aged man with a beard, wearing a dark green rich robe, pointing east and west to control the people who were busy.

He is the lord of Lu Mansion, Lu Xiangqin's father, the local landlord and squire, Lu Wei.

Behind him, there was also a beautiful woman in costume, tall and tall, with a graceful and upright face and a smile.

She is Mrs. Lu Fu, Lu Yuanshi, who was the daughter of King Qinghe before she got married, and she was a genuine royal princess. The king of the river who is coming to the door today is her cousin.

The Lu family is a large family of Han people who has been passed down from generation to generation, and their ancestors have been important ministers of the court for several generations.

Today, when the prince returned to the court, he happened to pass by here, so he decided to come in to rest and take a look at his cousin by the way.

Since yesterday evening, when the informant braved the snow to bring back the news, the whole government has entered a state of panic and preparation.

"Not ready yet? Hurry up or it's too late. Master Lu was sweating nervously.

"Daddy, these are my friends, come to play at home." Lu Xiangqin flew to his father like a bird when he entered the door.

Da Xibing turned the big cigarette stick, followed Lu Duo closely, and took the willow leaves before stepping in and saluting: "Master Lu Kangshou." ”

"Hello kids." Master Lu was busy and returned a gift.

The beautiful woman behind her also smiled and nodded.

"This is what I told you, the daughter of General Da Xiwu, Da Xibing." Lu Xiangqin introduced. "She is a famous civil and military talent, a genius girl."

"It's been a prize." Da Xibing is very polite.

"It just so happens that the prince has arrived today, and my father is too busy to greet him, and you have to take care of several children on behalf of your father." Master Lu was quite helpless.

"It's the little woman who is bothering." After Da Xibing changed into women's clothes, she seemed to be a different person. There is no haul of the tomboy at all, adding a bit of demure and elegance, gestures, and etiquette.

"Then let's go down and play, and come back when we eat!" Lu Xiangqin was as cheerful as a sparrow.

"Well, go ahead, go ahead." Master Lu is really too busy.

As he spoke, a drum sounded in the distance.

"Oops!" Master Lu also looked flustered. "Hurry up, line up and go out to greet you!"

——

Outside the town, a defeated army was moving towards the barracks.

From a distance, it looks like a black earthworm, slowly wriggling along the official road.

A group of men and horses broke away from the middle and rode into the town.

Hundreds of guards were crowded, dozens of people inside.

for the first two.

One rides after the wind red, wears a gold tiger tooth pocket, wears a dark cloak, depicts the tiger standing on the dragon plate pattern, all of them are gold wire wearing silver thread, wearing full armor, inlaid with five treasures and seven treasures, gorgeous and bright, dazzling, it is Wang Yuanchen of the river.

The other, who is much more elegant, riding a brown green zebra, wearing a flying fish crown and wearing fish scale chain mail, is a member of the army.

The two did not speak to each other.

And the people who rode horses behind followed were all singing and dancing Mihime.

As soon as he did it, in the blink of an eye, he came to Lu Mansion.

"Come with a big car, there is a disrespect, disrespect!" Master Lu led hundreds of people to greet him outside the door.

"Master Lu is polite." Yuan Chen just raised his hand and returned the salute. Don't get off the horse, go all the way forward.

followed by a group of beauties, also whistling by.

Only Yu Jin, who fell behind, dismounted and followed everyone to return on foot.

Master Lu recognized his caution, his heart was full of question marks, and he hurriedly asked, "Why is General Yu here?" Didn't you go out with the prince of Guangyang to crusade against Xianyu Xiuli? How did you get into the ranks of the King of the River? ”

Yu Jin took off the flying fish crown, looking tired. Obviously only in his early thirties, but he has a fifty-year-old face. With a long sigh, he replied: "In order to clear the grievances of King Guangyang, I had no choice but to leave the front line, return to Beijing, tie myself up, and ask Empress Dowager Hu for guilt. Fortunately, the Queen Mother was lenient and let go of the officials, so that she could get out of the city alive. On the way, he happened to meet the prince of Hejian returning to the court, so he was invited to come in together and ask for a glass of wine. ”

"What the hell is going on?" Lu Wei was dizzy by what he said. "Prince Guangyang, loyal and invincible, has repeatedly quelled rebellions, what are your grievances?"

"Hey...... It's hard to say, it's hard to say......" Yu Jin looked tired. "I just want to rest now."

Looking at Yu Jin's distressed appearance, Lu Wei didn't dare to ask more, but said: "Since you are here, you are a guest, please relax and relax first." ”

As he spoke, he returned to the house.

In the lobby, Yuan Chen had already seized the top position facing the door, looking arrogant and anti-customer-oriented.

"Brother-in-law! You can't do this mansion! "Yuan Chen saw that Lu Wei and Yu Jin were back, and brought out the words that had been prepared a long time ago." Look at your hall, so small, and your courtyard, broken and narrow, where is this where people live? ”

Lu Wei had to smile. "Yes, yes, what the prince said is reasonable."

"Really, my sister lives in such a place, it's really wronged. Oh yes, how? Not ready for the feast? I'm hungry. Yuan Chen ordered his subordinates to come up and help take off their armor.

was so blatantly in the center of the lobby, in front of everyone, he changed his clothes.

"Who is this guy? I don't know the rules. The willow leaf quietly attached to Da Xibing's ear.

The four juniors could only hide in the corner and respectfully watch the good show be staged above.

"The rich man Yuanchen, the royal clan, the rookie with the soldiers, the scrap that even the bandits can't win." Sister Bing'er is still as sharp as ever, and her words are not shocking and endless.

"No serious...... Lu Xiangqin rolled his eyes. The bandit commander rebelled in Xiuli, echoed Du Luo Zhou, gathered 100,000 thieves, and captured many state capitals in the Yunshuo region. The imperial court sent him and General Changsun Zhi to quell the rebellion, but he lingered, and the victimized General Changsun fell into a heavy siege and was defeated. And he himself couldn't win, but was beaten to the ground, so he was relieved of his position, led the defeated army, and the class returned. ”

Although he said it objectively, it could still be seen from the tone that Miss Lu was also very disdainful of him.

"And what about the slightly younger one down there?" Liu Ye seemed to have caught a savior, and hurriedly continued to ask.

I wanted to come to the Central Plains to learn about culture, but I followed Sister Bing'er, I didn't have a positive type, and I didn't say anything about the cause and effect, so I didn't know anything now.

"Hmm......" Lu Xiangqin frowned, narrowed his eyes and stared at Yu Jin carefully for a long time. I don't know either. ”

Liu Ye was speechless.

"Look! I'll have to talk about it. Sister Bing'er looked proud. That was Yu Jin, Guangyang Wang Yuanshen's staff officer. People are very smart and good at fighting. It is precisely because of him, coupled with the loyalty and courage of King Guangyang, that the rebellion can be temporarily suppressed in the Huaishuo area. ”

"But why is he here?" Liu Ye couldn't figure it out, this place was thousands of miles away from the front line.

"Come back and take the blame. Whoever makes the court mediocre has always distrusted loyal ministers. "Sister Bing'er is a member of the stealth maneuver, so she is naturally more well-informed.

"How do you know so much?" Ludo interjected suddenly.

"Uh...... Well...... I'm more gossipy. ”

Receiving such an answer, Ludo still looked puzzled.

Above the lobby, the feast has begun. Yuan Chen is still showing off almost playing treasure: "This wine is too inferior, right?" Can this vegetable also be eaten? Someone! Get on ours! ”

With a slap of the palm, dozens of Meiji, holding all kinds of rare food and wine, lined up on the field.

Bird's nest shark fin, monkey's head bear's paw, roe back goose legs, abalone and sea cucumber......

The beauties did not leave after serving, but sat down everywhere and teased the three hosts and guests.

"What a train to be! If you can lead soldiers like a beautiful woman, it will be amazing. "Sister Bing'er's mouth has always been unforgiving.

At this time, a soldier-like person asked to see him outside the mansion.

Ludo vigilantly pulled out his bow and arrows from behind him.

It was General Yu Jin's entourage, who said that there was something important to report, so he let him in.

The first sentence was: "Wang Shen of Guangyang, plotting to rebel, the matter was revealed, he defected and ran away, and when he went to Boling, he was captured by the thief Ge Rong and killed. ”

Before the words were finished, the four were shocked.

Yu Jin fainted directly and fell to the ground.
