Lu Xiangsheng returned to Luoyang earlier, but Lu Xiangsheng considered that in Luoyang City, there were many people who were old officials of the imperial court who had joined the Heavenly Army, and some of them had seen him, so after his injuries were slightly better, he asked to move to Ruzhou to recuperate.

So Liu Bao sent someone to escort him to Ruzhou City, found a quiet courtyard, and placed him in Ruzhou City.

Although Lu Xiangsheng has accepted his fate, he does not want to serve Xiao Tianjian so early, he feels that many things have to be observed before deciding, after all, his identity is not easy to show up now, once his identity is revealed, then the court will inevitably be angry with his family, so he temporarily resigned from Xiao Tianjian's request and became a hermit in Ruzhou City.

After Xiao Tianjian came back, he didn't forget Lu Xiangsheng, and after arranging various affairs, he personally went to Ruzhou to meet Lu Xiangsheng, a long-time "friend".

The meeting between the two was very low-key, Xiao Tianjian only took Tietou to Lu Xiangsheng's residence alone, and Lu Xiangsheng had basically recovered from his injuries after this period of recuperation, and he could walk around the ground, and he was also a person who was born to be idle, as soon as he could walk around the ground, he immediately took Li Qi around the city.

Because of Xiao Tianjian's instructions, although few people knew Lu Xiangsheng's true identity, the people of Xingtianjun also knew that this Mr. Lu was valued by Xiao Tianjian, so the material guarantee for him was very sufficient, not only sent guards to be responsible for his safety, but also sent him carriages, coachmen, cooks and others to take care of him.

So when Lu Xiangsheng was physically permitted, there was no problem in going out for activities, Lu Xiangsheng was just able to go down to the ground to act, and he saw a lot of places in the Ruzhou area, when he saw a large number of displaced people being resettled and fixed on the land by the Xingtian Army, a large number of farmland was reclaimed, and the markets inside and outside the city were also restored, and some materials began to flow again, quite sighed Xiao Tianjian's ability to govern the country.

On the one hand, Xiao Tianjian wants to maintain a strong force, on the other hand, he can also let the people be content with farming, and the merchants can resume business, which requires a lot of ability, and it is precisely because the Ming Dynasty has not handled these things well, so that it has led to the rise of the domestic people's army and fallen into internal and external difficulties.

And Xiao Tianjian, as the overlord of one party, can restore the people's livelihood and economy to such a situation in a short period of time within the jurisdiction, which is indeed rare, which also shows that Xiao Tianjian not only has the heart to fight for hegemony, but also knows how to sympathize with the people, and Lu Xiangsheng also sees that as a new group, the scribes in the scribe system of the Xingtianjun are obviously much more honest than the officials of the government, and they are more than ten times more efficient in doing things. But it also shows signs of recovery of people's livelihood, the people are diligent in farming, the officials are diligent in civil affairs, and there is a strong Xingtian army in the market to maintain, the people's will is very stable, although it is not rich, but this situation is extremely rare in the Central Plains and the north of the Ming Dynasty.

And as long as the people mentioned Xingtianjun and Xiao Tianjian, they all stretched out their thumbs and praised them, saying that if it weren't for Xingtianjun, they would have either starved to death or died of military disasters, and now although they are still very poor, they at least have food to eat, even if they can't eat enough, but they are always much stronger than the previous days, so they can be said to be grateful to Xiao Tianjian, but when they mentioned the official court, they all scolded them, which made Lu Xiangsheng even more emotional after hearing it.

Lu Xiangsheng can see that if Xiao Tianjian goes on like this, it is only a matter of time to gain the world, although he used to be an important minister of the Ming Dynasty, but while he is doing things for the country, he basically still wants to do things for the people, which makes Lu Xiangsheng reduce a lot of resistance to Xiao Tianjian, and it is also the main reason why he can accept his fate.

On the way home, Lu Xiangsheng secretly thought that if Xiao Tianjian was really a master, then although he was infamous as a minister, if he could do something for the people, it would not be a bad thing.

After walking into his small courtyard with Li Qi in such a mood, suddenly Li Qi exclaimed in surprise: "Xiao Dashuai! ”

Only then did Lu Xiangsheng look up and see a man with a majestic figure in the small courtyard, dressed very plainly, with a long beard standing in the courtyard, clasping his fists and smiling at him.

"In Xia Xiao Tianjian, I've seen Mr. Lu!" The plainly dressed man clenched his fists and said.

Lu Xiangsheng saw the legendary Xiao Tianjian himself for the first time, and after a little flurging, he shook his head with a wry smile and said with a fist: "I've seen Xiao Dashuai ...... below."

When the two of them sat in the simple study, after Li Qi came up with tea, Xiao Tianjian took a look at the environment here and said with a smile: "It's really aggrieved to let Mr. Lu live here!" Why doesn't Mr. live in Luoyang, so that Xiao can also be more convenient to consult Mr. at any time! ”

Lu Xiangsheng smiled indifferently and said: "Lu Moufei is a person who likes luxury, this place is already very good, rare and clean, you can read more books, see more of the world, but it is much more comfortable than before!" Luoyang is not used to living there, or here!

I haven't thanked the marshal for saving his life, but why didn't the marshal just die in front of the two armies, so that Zai Xia could get the name of a loyal minister! I won't end up in such a situation like this! In his words, Lu Xiangsheng still revealed a strong sense of regret.

After hearing this, Xiao Tianjian could hear that Lu Xiangsheng was still a little difficult to let go of the past, so he laughed and said: "Loyal ministers should not be treated like this!" Mr. Lu has done everything he should do! But what did the imperial court give to the adults?

Adults may not know that the imperial court has now issued a sea arrest document to Mr. and sent a large number of arrests to search for adults in Hebei! And when Yang Sichang and Gao Qiqian of the cabinet department deducted all the charges on the heads of the adults, saying that the defeat of the giant deer was because the adults were afraid of the enemy and escaped from the battle, Gao Qiqian even indiscriminately killed more than 100 soldiers under the command of the adults who were rescued by Xiao, just to confirm the adult's crimes!

And the emperor in the court, by no means a Ming monarch, seems to reuse the adult, but he restricts the adult everywhere, he wants to secretly negotiate peace with the Tartars, but he doesn't want to bear such an infamy, so he uses Yang Sichang and Gao Qiqian to frame the adult everywhere! It's okay if such an emperor is not loyal! ”

Lu Xiangsheng did not hesitate to say angrily: "Xiao Dashuai said cautiously, for the matter of peace with the Tartars, it is not the holy will, but Yang Sichang and Gao Qiqian's people secretly did it, even if Lu has become a second minister now, but I don't like to hear Xiao Dashuai slander him so much!" Lu Xiangsheng didn't want to admit that Zhu Youzhen was a faint gentleman from the bottom of his bones, and he still insisted that Yang Sichang and Gao Qiqian's people were harmed by the current situation, and Zhu Youzhen was just deceived!

Xiao Tianjian sneered and said, "Xiao didn't deliberately pour dirty water on the current emperor!" On the surface, it seems to be the case, so why does the adult say that as the governor of the guards, he has no right to control the power of the world's reinforcements, but he first wants to divide most of the Guanning army into charge, and first take most of the elite troops, and then let Chen Xinjia take most of the army, but he still wants the adult to pursue the Jiannu army with a weak brigade?

If it's just the villains Yang Sichang and Gao Qiqian who did it, then how can they have the right to do it? Don't hope for the man sitting in the court today! The reason why Xiao said this is not just hearsay or analysis! Because adults may not know, Gao Qiqian, the villain, has been captured below! In the following words, in fact, they are all confessed by Gao Qiqian!

From the beginning to the end, the person in the current court did not intend to wave his strength to resist Jiannu, in his opinion, Jiannu is invincible, it is better to let them enter the country and plunder, withdraw from the customs by themselves, and save troops to deal with Zaixia one day! As for the suffering of the people, is it his concern? Hypocritical villain! If the Son of Heaven who treats his own people as unworthy of others can still be respected! Phew! After Xiao Tianjian said that, he spat on the ground with a look of disgust.

Lu Xiangsheng's eyes widened after hearing this, and he immediately stood up and exclaimed: "How could Gao Qiqian also fall into the hands of the big handsome?" ”

Xiao Tianjian simply told Lu Xiangsheng about the defeat of Gao Qiqian's troops and the fact that he was later captured by the scouts of the Xingtian Army.

After hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng gritted his teeth and scolded: "This damn eunuch! "This time Gao Qiqian is really angry.

In Xiao's opinion, the price paid for doing this kind of rebellion is too great, but it is better to be a good obedient citizen! But do adults know the desperation that Xiao had when he was surrounded by some hungry people and wanted to kill Xiao and eat meat? Adults don't know! When we, the people, ended up like this, what did the court do? What they do is just increase the salary layer by layer, and increase the endowment every year! If we don't rebel, how can we live? As the king of a country, if you can't fill the stomachs of most of your people, I don't think it's right to be a good person! It's better to change people to do it, and you can live more people! If the king of a country can't even defend the country, and wants to let Jiannu enter the country at will and spoil the people under his subordinates, then I think it is better to change the person who can guard the country for him, and he will not be strong enough to fall into the hands of the Tartars sooner or later! Xiao Tianjian stood up and said loudly to Lu Xiangsheng.

Lu Xiangsheng looked at the arrogant Xiao Tianjian, and immediately heard his ambition, so he asked Xiao Tianjian: "Then if you win the world, can you save the people from fire and water?" Can it ensure the integrity of the officials in the world? Will it be able to keep this great river and mountain from being invaded by the Tartars? ”

After Xiao Tianjian glanced at Lu Xiangsheng, he nodded and said: "You asked very well, I really don't dare to say that everyone in the world can be fed and clothed, but I will work hard to do it, at least let those hard-working people have clothes and food!" When people are in trouble, I will do everything I can to help them, reduce their taxes, and help them tide over the difficulties! Recreate the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty back then!

I don't dare to guarantee that every official is incorruptible, but I will try to establish a supervisory wit, survival of the fittest, and let capable people run the world, instead of letting the government be filled with city foxes, club rats, chickens, dogs, and thieves!

I don't dare to guarantee that my China will not be violated by any Tartars, but I will say like the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, even if those who offend me are far away, they will be punished! I'm not going to let our army become so weak as it is now! I will build a strong army that is proud of the world, to expand the territory, to defend the interests of China, and let all nations come to the court!

I don't know if Mr. is still satisfied with Xiao's answer? ”

Lu Xiangsheng stared at Xiao Tianjian with sharp eyes for a long time, and Xiao Tianjian stood proudly in front of Lu Xiangsheng, staring at Lu Xiangsheng's eyes calmly, his eyes were clear and did not flinch, Lu Xiangsheng stared at Xiao Tianjian's eyes for a long time, his eyes suddenly softened a lot, and then bowed down to Xiao Tianjian: "Lu remembers the words of the handsome, I hope that the handsome can put the people of the world first, if the handsome man breaks his promise and fattens himself, then although Lu Mou's strength is limited, he will definitely give up this life and take your life......"
