The Lu family's outer house, five miles away in the western suburbs of Tangyin, is built against the mountains and is quite hidden. It was a temporary place for the Lu family to move in that year, and the new house was not built in time, and it was later abandoned and only came to escape the summer in midsummer.

Lu Jingyuan came on horseback, and the people guarding the door were all people from the Lu Mansion, and when they saw him, they were all surprised and happy, and immediately welcomed him into the hospital. But when they arrived in the outer hall, there was no trace of Lu Boyan and others, and only two young men in the hall raised their glasses and changed their lamps, talking and laughing.

The first person on the left is Fang and the weak crown, handsome and snow-white, surnamed Tang Zhennan, the word Yinting, is the son of Tang Jichuan, the general of Tiannan. The first person on the right is a little older, with a handsome face, surnamed Liu Mingqi, and the word Uncle Xin, who is the son of Liu Zhongwu, the protector of Xining. Tang and Liu are both the sons of generals, living in Beijing when they were young, accompanied by Lu Jingyuan, and later moved to various places, they can only exchange letters, whenever they think of it, they often feel depressed. At this moment, the three young friends were overjoyed to see each other, and they should have said goodbye to the experience, but Lu Jingyuan had other things on his mind, so he didn't care about greetings, so he went straight to the point and asked: "Uncle Xin, Yin Ting, where are the old men?" ”

Liu Qi said: "You are here for entering Beijing?" ”

Lu Jingyuan said: "Exactly, I returned from the south of the country, met Yaofu on the road, I heard that you were ordered to enter Beijing with the old man, I thought that this matter is unreasonable, and I came to the outer house before entering the house." ”

Hearing this, Liu Qi and Tang Zhennan were stunned,

Liu Qi laughed and said, "Who said that we are here?" I and the two idlers in Zhennan, what are the positions to be discussed? ”

Tang Zhennan said: "That wood is wood, stupid, the triennial Youlan Hunting Meeting, actually asked him to be resigned, but the person who is in charge this year is still Captain Gao." “

Hearing the words "Youlan Hunting Club", Lu Jingyuan suddenly realized, it turns out that the early summer of each year is the season of blooming Hui Orchid in the Central Plains, and now Huizong is good at loving elegance, especially Xi Huilan, there are widely planted and raised in the forbidden garden, and at the beginning of his accession, he changed the original "Son of Heaven Hunting Meeting" every three years to "Youlan Hunting Club".

Although the official family of the Song Dynasty is not still martial arts, but the Son of Heaven is an ancient rite to hunt, and the children of the important ministers in the country are invited to the meeting, and they are selected and given to determine the hearts of the people.

Lu Jingyuan was originally a child of the family, and he was no stranger to this grand event of the Son of Heaven specially held for the children of the family, but he had been to the south for a long time, and the news was blocked, so he didn't think about it at all, and he breathed a sigh of relief at the moment, and said with a smile: "No wonder Yaofu didn't know about it, and it was not his turn to participate in this grand event." ”

Tang Zhennan laughed and said, "Just that waste snack, Zhang Gong is only afraid of hurting himself." “

Liu Qi said: "Not necessarily, don't forget that this hunting meeting is organized by Gao Taiwei." “

Tang Zhennan sneered: "What about Captain Gao, can he still cheat for personal gain?" “

Liu Qi's lips moved slightly, but he didn't speak.

Tang Zhennan turned to look at Lu Jingyuan and said with a smile: "Jingyuan, you're late, drink three cups first." “

Lu Jingyuan took the wine glass, raised his head and drank dry, but he was still not very relieved in his heart, so he didn't continue drinking, and asked, "Where are those old men?" “

Liu Qi said: "Discuss inside." “

Lu Jingyuan knew what he said about the inner hall behind the screen, and couldn't help frowning: "Why don't you let you in?" “

Tang Zhennan said: "Why else, treat us as children, we are not worthy of being at the same table with them." “

Lu Jingyuan smiled when he heard this, put down his wine glass, and said, "Let's go, take a look." “

Liu Qi hurriedly stopped him and said, "No, in addition to our three elders, there are also outsiders inside, you just came back, don't make trouble." “

Lu Jingyuan said: "Whoever wants to cause trouble, I said take a look." With that, he bypassed him and walked straight behind the screen.

Tang Zhennan followed him and said with a smile: "It's still Jingyuan who is bold, I said a long time ago to see, Uncle Xin is timid." ”

Liu Qi said angrily: "Who said I was cowardly! As he spoke, he followed behind the screen.

Before the three of them got closer, they suddenly heard a loud scolding from the room: "Huangkou Xiaoer! ”

The three of them were startled, Tang Zhennan turned around and left,

Liu Qi grabbed him and said in a low voice, "It's not scolding us." ”

As soon as the words fell, there was no movement in the inner hall.

Liu Qi sneered: "It's you who laugh at me for being cowardly, and you are the fastest to escape right now." ”

Tang Zhennan's face was embarrassed, and he said, "I'm in the end, I can't escape quickly, you can't escape." ”

"Shh Lu Jingyuan turned around and made a silent gesture, opened a little crack in the door, and the three of them immediately looked in.

But I saw that sitting on the main seat of the room was a middle-aged man with narrow phoenix eyes, who was Lu Boyan.

The first person on the left seat is a strong figure, and the next short beard is the Ningxi capital to protect Liu Zhongwu, the character Ziwen. The person on the first seat on the right has a scar on his face, tall and thin, it is the Tiannan general Tang Jichuan, the word is Changshan.

In addition, there was a drunk old man with a white beard sitting on the front seat, but he didn't know it.

Lu Liu and Tang are all one party, have a friendship with each other, Lu and Tang are both the founding generals, they are world friends, and Liu Zhongwu is a meritorious promotion, once served with Lu Boyan under Tong Guan, and has the friendship of comrades.

As for the drunk old man, Lu Jingyuan had never seen it, he only felt strange.

I only listened to the old man: "In the past, the imperial court conquered Liao several times, and returned repeatedly in vain, the battle of Yancheng was the most ridiculous, Liu Yanqing was not effective, Liu Guangshi was a yellow-mouthed child, no one in his eyes, causing the soldiers to centrifuge, his father and son were incompetent, tired of the three armies, and the Liao border fell into the hands of the Jin people, what the brother said was extremely true, the Jin people were far more vicious than the Khitan, and now they are stationed in the southern courtyard, clearly have a desire, but some scholars in the court turned a blind eye and pretended to be peaceful, which was more hateful than the Liu family father and son. “

Listening to him scolding people by name, Lu Boyan and Liu Zhongwu buried their heads in eating and did not answer him.

Only Tang Jichuan said: "As Lao Shuai said, then the father and son of the Liu family should be beheaded and dealt with, but how did I hear that their father and son have been used again recently?" “

Hearing this, Lu Boyan picked up his chopsticks and grabbed a piece of buckle meat, put it in Tang Jichuan's bowl, and said: "Changshan, the old handsome speaks, he has his own old handsome truth, you just listen." “

The old man shook his head and said, "Ji Chang." “

Lu Boyan put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said with a straight face: "The student is here." “

The old man said, "The battle of Yancheng, you are also there, right?" “

Lu Boyan replied: "Yes, the student recognizes the rear system. “

The old man said, "How many men and horses do you lead?" “

Lu Boyan said: "There are 30,000 soldiers and another 8,000 recruits. “

The old man said: "Then you are also a fool, the father and son of the Liu family are the commanders, and they have 100,000 virtual troops, and you have 38,000 people in a rear system, and you see them fleeing for no reason, do you also flee?" ”

Hearing this, Lu Boyan's eyes changed, but he didn't wait for him to speak

Tang Jichuan interjected: "The old marshal's words are wrong, at that time, Ji Chang was in the rear department, this is the position of running the grain transportation, and his subordinates are all old and weak grain officers, even if he adds the unarmed 8,000 soldiers, it will not help, he saw the commander flee and then withdraw the army, can he sit still and wait for death?" ”

Lu Boyan hurriedly said: "Changshan, you don't have to excuse me. ”

He said to the old man: "The old man taught him a lesson, even if the student is not the boss, he cannot escape the blame. ”

The old man sighed and raised his glass in reply.

When Lu Jingyuan saw this scene, he couldn't help but be annoyed, and turned around and asked, "What is the origin of this old man?" Such a big shelf! ”

Liu Qi said in a low voice: "Northwest, planter." ”
