Lou Wen has many descendants, a few are local officials, quite valued by him, cited as foreign aid, he led the troops to Hanzhou, just wanted to defect to the six sons, but the whole army stopped moving forward halfway, and there were rumors that Hanzhou has been in chaos, the whereabouts of the six sons of Lou are unknown, Lou Wen can not advance or retreat, quite embarrassed.

The king of Xiangdong arrived very timely, Lou Wen heard the report, he was overjoyed, and dragged his heavy body out of the tent to greet him personally, even if he was chased by the rebels, he did not run so fast.

At this time, Lou Wen sincerely thanked the king of Xiangdong and was willing to accept Yecheng's wooing.

"Go back, you must take back the eastern capital." Lou Wen made a bold statement in public, "My home is also in the Eastern Capital, how can I leave it to a group of robbers and bandits?" To be honest, the thought of those guys who didn't even take a shower was going to break into the General's Mansion made me sleepless at night, and my heart ached. ”

The soldiers felt the same way, and shouted "go home" in unison, and the king of Xiangdong, who was standing beside the general, felt that he had come to the right place this time, and secretly said to the lord of Huanyan County, who was thousands of miles away: "Daughter, you are wrong this time, the general is desperate, and it can be used by me." ”

When he returned to the Eastern Capital, he found that the Jizhou Army did not expect to be outnumbered, and the Eastern Capital was held by the rebels as impregnable, luring the enemy to fight and failing at the last moment, Lou Wen's gratitude quickly faded, and other thoughts were born in his heart.

Guo Shifeng returned from the envoy and brought back two passages of King Wu.

After hearing this, King Xiangdong sneered, "What an arrogant boy." ”

Lou Wen was furious, "The ungrateful son of unfilial piety wants to compete with me on the battlefield." I'm his own son, how much good can he get by killing me? On the day I break the city, the first thing I will do is to chop this boy alive, and none of you will stop me, for whoever stops me will be guilty of the same sin as him. ”

No one dared to stop him, and no one even persuaded him, the general had ups and downs in his life, whether it was on the battlefield or in the officialdom, there were times when he was unexpected, and even bullied, but at the scene, as long as his fat body stood there, it was a powerful deterrent force, and even the emperor had to give three points.

No one dared to annoy the general to his face.

"Don't be anxious, King Xiangdong, Seventeen will soon pay the price for his arrogance, within three days, I will attack the city, at most in three days, I will be able to break the city. That royal governor, let your people hurry up to make instruments, the more the better. At this time, everyone should not be lazy, no matter how hard and tired they are, they must not stop working, and they will have a heavy reward after entering the city. ”

Wang Tiemei was originally the commander of the Jizhou Army, and he said nothing in the army, even the two kings of Xiangdong and Jibei had to follow him, and as soon as the general arrived, he lost his power inexplicably, and he was indignant in his heart, but he didn't dare to say half a word.

When fighting with the rebels, Wang Tiemei relied on and reused cavalry, wanting to make meritorious contributions to his own people, but as a result, his headquarters suffered huge casualties, lost face, and was unable to compete with the new general.

Wang Tiemei hated the general, hated King Wu even more, and when he thought that this was the father and son, he was even more annoyed, and said "yes" in a low voice, not daring to look up at people.

Lou Wen assigned the assignment task, and no one was left behind, even the King of Xiangdong was no exception, but he was a little polite in his words, "Please send someone to urge the Xi family in Jingzhou again, and tell them that if they want to support, they will be faster, and if they are a few days later, they will not be needed." ”

"Yes, several groups of people have been sent, and it is estimated that they are all on the way, and there will be a reply soon."

"What I want is not a reply, it is grain and grass, people have to eat grain, horses have to eat grass, but it really can't be done, people can eat horses, and then they have to starve to death. King Xiangdong, this victory and defeat, whether you can recapture the eastern capital, it all depends on your ability and the ability of the king of Jibei. ”

"Yes, yes." The king of Xiangdong began to regret it, his daughter had already reminded him that he would rather give up the eastern capital and return to Yecheng than invite foreign aid, especially not to contact the general, he has always followed his daughter's advice, but he didn't listen to this one, and as a result, he attracted a tiger.

Everyone dispersed, and Guo Shifeng was left alone.

Lou Wen was half-lying and half-sitting, suffering from the cold of the winter, the pain on his body, and the anxiety in his heart at the same time, and every gasp seemed to be using all his strength.

"How do you answer Seventeen?"

Guo Shifeng stepped forward, "King Wu refuses to change back to Lou's surname." ”

"How dare he?" Lou Wen turned his head and glared, scaring Guo Shifeng back a few steps, but it had no effect on the seventeen children behind the city wall, "What kind of King Wu is he?" Lao Tzu is the general, and he is actually the king...... The Lou family has so many children and grandchildren, and this one is a little bold, like me when I was young. ”

Lou Wen was angry and then happy, Guo Shifeng smiled bitterly, thinking that it was no wonder that King Wu wanted to leave home and change his surname, the general was indeed not a person to deal with.

"But King Wu didn't say anything to death."

"What did he say?"

"He said that if the general could send back the soldiers of the Wu army, he would consider the general's proposal."

"Impossible, if the battle is not fought, I will let the prisoners go, the people of Yecheng will not agree, and the soldiers in the army will also say that I am cowardly. What else did he say? ”

King Wu also said...... "Guo Shifeng didn't dare to say it directly."

"Say, he's going to meet me on the battlefield, what else can't you say or hear?"

"King Wu said that he is the master of an army, and the general must at least be the master of an army before he can be on an equal footing with him, and it is not too late to talk about the relationship between father and son at that time."

Lou Wen was stunned for a while, suddenly laughed wildly, scolded a few swear words, and then said: "Ruthless enough, okay, maybe this kid can really do something." ”

Guo Shifeng stepped forward and reminded: "General, be careful. ”

"Be careful of what?"

"King Wu deliberately used these words to provoke the general, implying that the general seized power, but in fact, he was dividing the officers and generals."

Lou Wen's expression darkened, and he muttered: "He has long persuaded me to seize power, and he has persuaded me more than once, but I didn't listen to ......."

Lou Wen quickly perked up, "It's not too late, it's not too late." I don't need his anger and hints, I will make an early decision, Yecheng is incompetent, it is difficult to achieve a great cause, and I will perish with it, and I can't take the opportunity to take it. The Lou family seized the world for the Zhang family, it was the Zhang family who lost it themselves, and it had nothing to do with the Lou family, and now it was time for the Lou family to plan for themselves. ”

"The general really wants to ......"

"Go and call one of my sons."

"Which one?"

Lou Wen's children and grandchildren are mostly in the army, and he doesn't say his name and rank, so others can't guess which one he wants.

"That ......" Lou Wen tapped his forehead lightly, "the ...... who wants to marry the daughter of the king of Xiangdong"

"Lou Ji Lou Xiao rides."

"Yes, call him over."

Lou Ji came as soon as he called, and bowed deeply to his father, "The child meets the general." ”

According to the rules of the Lou family, children and grandchildren should be called their father's official position, and only those who are extremely favored should be called otherwise.

Lou Wen nodded, "This Mr. Guo is his own person, you tell him about the plan." ”

Lou Ji glanced at Guo Shifeng in surprise, "He was originally King Wu's advisor......"

"yes, that's why I asked you to tell him." Lou Wen was a little impatient.

"Say anything?"

"I'll tell you what you want to hide." The building is cold and authentic.

Lou Ji bowed his hand to Guo Shifeng and said with a smile: "Mr. Guo, don't care, you have to be cautious in everything now." ”

"Understood, I only need to understand a rough idea, so that I can go back and report to King Wu."

"Actually, it's simple, there will be a mutiny in the army the night after tomorrow, the Jizhou soldiers rushed into the tent to kill the king of Xiangdong, the general avenged the king of Xiangdong, killed Wang Tiemei, I took the body back to Yecheng, and the general sent troops later. That's it. ”

Lou Ji said briefly, he didn't mention whether the mutinous Jizhou soldiers were true or not, Guo Shifeng didn't ask, and said with a smile: "Clever plan, with the authority of a general, this plan is foolproof, and King Wu can't believe it." ”

Lou Wen interjected: "This is our Lou family's plan, not to deceive that kid, he is willing to change back to his old surname, very good, the Lou family occupies Luo and Jizhou, and dominates the world, maybe there will really be an emperor." He doesn't want to, don't get in the way, I'll go to Yecheng, he stays in the Eastern Capital, and everyone is benefited. ”

"I can't think of any reason for King Wu to refuse the general's good intentions."

Lou Wen adjusted his sitting position, "Does he believe the statement of the illegitimate prince?" ”

Guo Shifeng thought for a while, "At least there is no doubt." ”

"That's good." Lou Wen breathed a sigh of relief, "You go and tell that kid that if he is in a hurry, he can exchange prisoners tomorrow, if he is not in a hurry, he will wait until I take the army." In short, none of my concubines should be missing. ”

"With King Wu here, no one dares to go to the General's Mansion to make trouble." Guo Shifeng said with a smile, he couldn't figure out whether the general really wanted those women or pretended to be lustful.

"I'm worried about someone else, it's him. A boy in his twenties, with strong blood, is at the most dangerous time......"

"Don't worry, general, King Wu is not that kind of person, I have inquired, King Wu and the daughter of the descending king are quite affectionate after marriage."

Lou Wen frowned, "The daughter of the incarnation king? ”

Lou Ji said: "I have seen this woman, she has been captured by officers and soldiers, she is very tall and has a lot of strength. In the previous battle, she led the troops to storm the western camp, causing the officers and soldiers to lose their heads, and she was a ruthless general, but she was not like a woman. ”

Lou Wen laughed loudly, "What kind of flavor is this?" This kid ...... When she was a child, she was different from others, and it was all her biological mother who harmed her. ”

"In short, the general doesn't have to worry about the concubines at home, and some of them seem to have escaped from the Eastern Capital and don't know where to go." Guo Shifeng said.

Lou Wen's face sank, "I was taken away a lot by the third child, he is just a dog, he pounces when he sees meat, and none of the concubines who fall into his hands can escape...... If he doesn't compensate me twice, Lao Tzu will swallow him alive. ”

Lou Wen gritted his teeth.

Guo Shifeng and Lou Ji glanced at each other, but they were reluctant to speak.

"What else do you have to ask?" Lou Wen came back to his senses.

Guo Shifeng shook his head, "No, I'll go into the city to see King Wu." ”

Lou Wen waved his hand.

As soon as Guo Shifeng left, Lou Ji stepped forward and said: "King Wu is ambitious, there is no truth, the general ......"

"You also call him King Wu?"

"Lou Ji, the child is quick to talk for a while...... The ambition of the wolf son of the building is unbelievable. ”

"I don't know who my son is. Don't worry, that kid is indeed smart and bold enough, but he is a little soft-hearted. As long as I show weakness, he will never dare to take the name of killing his father. ”

"Lou Ji once assassinated the Emperor of All Things with his own hands." Lou Ji reminded.

"It's different, killing the emperor is that he has the courage to kill a soft father, but he can't do it if he wants to be ruthless and unjust. I just want to make him soft-hearted and let him come to me......" Lou Wen really didn't know what to do, he hated and appreciated this son.

"Then I will say it, I want my son, I don't want King Wu." Lou Wen didn't want to think about it for too long.

"Everything is up to the general. The child should not stay for a long time, so he has to visit the king of Xiangdong and appease his heart. ”

"Yes, he is your future father-in-law. You have to be able to tell the difference between inside and outside. ”

Lou Ji said with a smile: "The child's surname is Lou, and it can never be changed, not to mention that the father and daughter of the king of Xiangdong have no sincerity towards me, and the lord of Huanyan County is obscene and cheap, and he is not worthy of being the wife of the Lou family." ”

Lou Wen nodded, he needed a lot of such sons.

Lou Ji was about to leave, but Lou Wen stopped him again, "Wait, that ...... Have you ever met the Queen Mother? ”

"Empress Dowager Luan? I haven't seen her, and no one in the army should have seen her. ”

"But there are a lot of rumors."

"What rumors?" Lou Ji didn't understand.

"It is said that she is as beautiful as a fairy, and the rebel kings fought for her to break her head, so she had to be returned to the officers and soldiers." Lou Wen sighed twice, "I saw her twice, she was far away, I couldn't take a closer look, and the regret of my life was nothing more than this." ”

Lou Ji smiled and retired, finally convinced that the general was really lustful, not pretending.
