After all, Huangfu Ke is still tender, and it is inevitable that he will not see Mount Tai. But Lu Yun can taste something from Huangfu Pixian's behavior - this great grandmaster is sharpening the backbone of the Huangfu family and gaining what he cannot, so as not to have something in the world, and the Huangfu valve has no available talents.

The so-called 'a thousand troops are easy to obtain, but a general is hard to find', in this era, each lord can casually recruit more than 100,000 or 200,000 troops only in his own fiefdom. However, if there are no officers at all levels as the backbone, it will be difficult for these rabble to truly form combat effectiveness, and no matter how large the number is, they will only be lambs to the slaughter.

Therefore, each valve attaches great importance to cultivating their own children, so that once something happens, they can immediately use them as the backbone to form a strong army, which is even a matter of victory or defeat.

But in the great change eleven years ago, the generals of the Huangfu family were all slaughtered, and since then the talents have withered and their vitality has been greatly damaged, and they have always been considered weak and have no future. Even Lu Yun didn't have much hope for them, but today he saw Huangfu Pixian as a great grandmaster, but he was still sparing no effort to sharpen the children of the clan.

Lu Yun suddenly felt that maybe there was still a glimmer of hope for the Huangfu family. So he made up his mind to take a good look at the situation of Qianniuwei and Yulinwei, and then mingle with them to see if he could be of use to me.

Lu Yun thought so and did so. From that day on, he lived in the duty room, accompanied Qianniu to patrol the palace ban day and night, and took the time to call the Yamen's Changshi and others to him, and inquired in detail about Qianniuwei's printing and distribution, collusion, ranks, examinations, Lu Cheng, A battle, etc., and compared the account 7 volumes, all the materials and armor in the treasury, as well as the things of the imperial battle, were all counted and checked.

As a result, Lu Yun gasped, and the materials and armor in the treasury were not missing, but several times the book records, and they could arm more than 10,000 people in an instant. This is just Qianniuwei's treasury, and it seems that the situation on Yu Linwei's side can be imagined.

These are all his own things, and Huangfu Pixian didn't stop him, but he just kept an eye on this big prince Lu who was fond of causing trouble, in case he caused trouble.

。

Unknowingly, in April, Lu Yun accompanied Huang Fu Jue again and led a team to patrol the palace.

"My lord has been here for half a month, that's really conscientious, but the general still hasn't sent you an envoy," there are no outsiders left and right, and Huang Fu Jue speaks very casually. "Brothers, I'm really sorry for you."

"Say a few words, let the general listen, a critic of the official, twenty military sticks. A noisy man on duty, and a ...... of twenty military sticks" Lu Yun held the hilt of the Thousand Niu Knife in his hand and walked to the side of the team with his head held high.

"Don't be afraid, my cheeks are calloused...... Huangfu said stiffly: "But the brothers are guessing, when will the adults not be able to bear the general?" ”

"What can't I bear? He doesn't have the right to spank me anyway. Lu Yun smiled faintly and said, "You want me to top the cylinder, I'm afraid I'm going to be disappointed." ”

"My lord, you can't do this...... Huang Fu said with a bitter face: "Brothers, I hope for the stars and the moon to come to you." But you, the demon king of the world, why did you become a little sheep as soon as you entered the palace? ”

"That means you misunderstood me before." Lu Yun replied with a smile as he turned his head and glanced around.

Suddenly, he saw an old man in a purple robe, under the guidance of Xiao Huangmen, coming in from Changle Gate and walking towards Changle Palace.

"Isn't that the king of Fenyang?" Huang Fu Jue looked into the distance, and when the old man entered the gate of the Changle Palace, he said with a strange face: "This is not going to happen, why is he visiting alone?" ”

"Of course there's something wrong, be your errand." Lu Yun's heart moved, and he probably guessed that Pei Qiu should have come for the transposition of Pei Valve.

Last winter, there were rumors in Beijing that Pei Qiu wanted to give up the position of the lord to his younger brother Pei Du. Since this spring, Pei Valve's series of actions have also confirmed this rumor. Now, Pei Jiao has firmly sat in the position of the general of Zhenbei, and Pei Du has also completely mastered the Beijing camp, and he has been directly giving orders among Pei Valve for several months. Now Pei Qiu proposes to let Pei Du take over, which can be said to be a matter of course and will not cause any turmoil.

From this point of view alone, the Pei valve is much stronger than the land valve.

。

In the Changle Palace, Lu Yun guessed correctly, at least half of it was right......

I saw the white-haired Pei Qiu, kneeling in front of the initial emperor, and said in a sincere tone: "I have been sick for a long time, and I felt powerless a few years ago, but His Majesty has comforted me a few times, so I have barely persevered until now." But this year, Lao Chen's health and energy are even worse, and if he still holds on, he will only miss His Majesty's major events. A few years ago, Lu Shang had already made a decision, and the old minister wanted to come to His Majesty to treat everyone equally, and he would not force the old minister to stay anymore, right? ”

Saying that, he knelt down deeply, touched the ground with his forehead, and said: "I implore Your Majesty to allow the old minister to return to his hometown and return to the hidden spring to spend his last years." ”

"Alas, the old county king, are you willing to leave the widow alone?" Although the initial emperor wished that Pei Qiu would get out of the house as soon as possible, he could only comfort him according to the routine: "Daxuan can't do without the old county king, and the widow can't let you go if he says anything." If you feel that you can't do it, then the widow can be exempted from your regular dynasty, you can recuperate at home on weekdays, and then enter the palace to discuss with the widow when there is a big event, do you think this is good? ”

"Your Majesty's kindness to the old minister is like a mountain, although the old minister is full of liver and brains, there is nothing to repay......" Pei Qiu was moved to tears, slowly touched something from his arms, held it high above his head, and hissed: "Only this thing is dedicated to Your Majesty, in order to show my Pei family's loyalty to Your Majesty and Daxuan!" ”

"Oh......" Seeing that the king of Fenyang County didn't follow the routine, the initial emperor couldn't help but be stunned. It took a while to react and motioned for Du Hui to present this thing.

Du Hui hurriedly took a tray over. Pei Qiu looked solemn, and cautiously put the yellow silk wrapped in things on the tray slowly.

His attitude like this aroused the interest of the first emperor, and he didn't know what priceless treasure was contained in it, so he actually made Pei Qiu so careful?

At this time, Du Hui knelt on his knees and presented the tray to the Initial Emperor.

The Initial Emperor smiled and said, "Shouldn't the widow clean his hands and open this thing again?" ”

"Your Majesty is still thoughtful." I only heard Pei Qiu say in a deep voice.

"Oh?" The First Emperor stretched out his hand and touched the thing, and through the layer of yellow silk, he could also feel that it was a jade seal. Huangfu Yu's heart suddenly skipped a beat, he immediately withdrew his hand, and said in a deep voice to Du Hui: "Retreat left and right, close the door of the palace, ......" After a pause, the initial emperor added: "Bring a basin of water again, and the widow must clean his hands." ”

"Yes." Du Hui immediately complied. After a while, only the first emperor and Pei Qiu were left in the main hall, and Du Hui was guarding the door.

The first emperor washed his hands and gently ripped off a corner of the yellow silk.

The Lantian jade seal of the five dragons suddenly appeared in front of him.
