Of course, although Zhan Huwei is upright, after all, he is an old man who has followed Wu Ning for many years, and he naturally knows about the matter of human affection.

Therefore, in fact, he still has some things that he has not said to the prince.

It's not that he doesn't want to say it, it's not that he can't say it, it's just that those words are best heard by the prince himself, rather than conveyed by himself.

This is the way to go.

Wu Ningyuan walked to the door of the hall with his hands behind his back, pushed open the door, and looked at the bright garden and the early winter scene.

When I saw the lush bamboo forest in the sky, it was already full of fallen leaves at this time. Only the bamboos are straight and straight, standing in the cold wind.

Wu Ningyuan stroked his beard, and said to Zhanxiong beside him in a gentle tone: "Thank you for the chrysanthemums of Qixia Temple?" ”

Zhan Xiong was stunned for a moment, not knowing what the prince meant by this. He glanced at Wu Ningyuan suspiciously, but still replied with a fist: "Not yet, these days are the season of autumn chrysanthemum blooming, the fragrance of flowers in Qixia Temple is overflowing, and tourists are weaving!" ”

Wu Ningyuan touched his beard, nodded and smiled, he raised his hand, gently pulled the folds of the robe on his body, and said to Uh, Zhanxiong beside him: "In this case, then Wang Ming said that he will go to Qixia Temple and enjoy the rare scenery in this early winter!" ”

"But, Lord Wang, Lord An has just sent someone to send a post, explaining that he wants to come to the door in person to visit you!" Zhanxiong took out a prayer post printed with gold characters from his arms, and said to Wu Ning with a wry smile.

Wu Ningyuan just glanced at it lightly, and then withdrew his gaze.

"Tell him that this king is not available, let him come back the day after tomorrow!" Wu Ningyuan raised his steps, crossed the threshold, and walked towards the small pavilion in the bamboo forest. He lazily dropped such a sentence with his hands behind his back.

The Zhan guard stood at the door, looking at the flying fallen leaves, the upright figure of the prince, and the momentum of moving forward with his feet raised, and he was stunned for a moment, but a very happy smile appeared on his face.

Casually, he threw the golden letter of worship aside, and he raised his feet and walked towards the pavilion.

Thinking of the prince, the expression of disdain for the golden letter just now. Zhan's guards remembered the time when they followed the prince to fight in the south and the north. The prince seems to have an attitude towards the army and supervising the army.

Hehe, it seems that the Great Zhou God of War who looked down on the world back then is back!

…… Outside the city of Jiangning, the flag is displayed.

The big and small officials of Jiangning City, dressed in bright official uniforms, stood in the cold wind, looking forward to the official road in the distance.

The cold wind blew, and these officials, who had been standing in the wind for a long time, couldn't help but shiver.

The wind swept dust and dead leaves and fell on these officials. Before the head of the day was raised, the officials were already waiting here. At this point, almost three hours passed. The bodies of these people have long since lost their original brightness. The expensive satin official uniforms were also covered with dust, and they looked like a group of people fleeing the famine to beg for food.

"Lord Hong, this, when is this Qin Cha coming!" A magistrate under the jurisdiction of Jiangning, raised his sleeve, wiped off a line of clear nose, sniffed, and asked in a low voice.

"How does this official know?" Hong Quan was also frozen enough, helplessly, he was the Yin of Jiangning Mansion, even if it was cold, he had to make a gesture in front of the lower officials.

At this time, Hong Quan, who had been stretching his fat and not letting the cold wind invade him, couldn't help but relax a little when he heard this guy ask. He was cold, shivered, and turned around and said to him angrily.

"I said, Lord Li, can you not wipe your nose with your official uniform!" Seeing that this guy's cuffs were already hard, Hong Quan, who had endured it for a long time, finally couldn't hold it back, and reprimanded him angrily.

"The lower officials know, the lower officials know! Hey! The magistrate, whose name was Lord Li, raised his sleeve and wiped his mouth, and replied with a smile.

"Hey, look, the Qincha team is here?" Just as Hong Quan was talking to Lord Li, an official behind him suddenly stretched out his hand, pointed to the official road in front of him, and exclaimed.

When the officials heard this, they hurriedly stood on tiptoe and looked ahead.

Sure enough, in the whirring cold wind, the mighty Qincha team, waving flags, appeared in their eyes.

"Damn, it's a coincidence!" Hong Quan raised his sleeves, wiped the frozen snot, and secretly slandered in his heart.

On the side, Lord Li, the magistrate, couldn't help but roll his eyes when he saw that Lord Fu Yin was the same.

"Colleagues, take care of yourself and get ready to welcome Lord Chincha!" Hong Quan stretched out his hand, swept away a layer of dust on his body, turned around, and yelled at the dirty-looking officials behind him.

As a result, many officials waved their sleeves in unison and slapped the dust on their bodies.

For a while, the dust beaten by dozens of officials was noisy, and the smoke and dust were filled, as if a sandstorm was coming.

…… The Qincha brigade moved forward slowly, and next to the carriage that An Peng was riding, three hundred thousand Niu Wei held the hilt of the waist knife in his hand, and his eyes were coldly accompanying him. On the periphery, thousands of sergeants stood guard.

At the front of the line, a team of 100 people carried a flag representing black. In the fierce cold wind, the banners of the exhibition whirred in the wind. On the flag, a square Zhou character is impressive.

"Master, Jiangning's big and small officials are already in front of you!" An old man in a luxurious silk robe was stunned for a year when he saw the billowing dust in front of him. He also thought that there were thousands of military horses in front of him to exercise the military formation. However, after seeing the looming Jiangning officials in the dust, he smiled dumbly. walked to An Peng's carriage and whispered to An Peng.

The carriage was very spacious. In the gold-painted copper furnace, cigarette smoke fills the air. Spacious interior with incense.

An Peng sat by the fire, stretching out his hand to bake the fire. After hearing the voice of the housekeeper outside, he withdrew his hand, raised his head, looked at Yushi Lu Zhi, who had been sitting opposite him with a dead face, tugged at the folds on the official mansion, and said to Lu Yushi with a smile: "Lord Lu, Jiang Ning has arrived!" ”

"Well, this official knows!" Lu Yushi replied without being salty, as if he didn't take An Peng in his eyes at all.

Seeing Lu Yushi's attitude, An Peng was surprisingly lifeless.

However, in the court, as long as people with a little common sense are not as knowledgeable as this Lu Yushi.

This person is a mad dog, who bites whom. Even today's Son of Heaven, Emperor Yanjing of the Great Zhou Dynasty has been confronted by him several times.

This person took Wei Zheng in the Tang Dynasty as an example and aspired to be a direct minister of the Great Zhou. However, compared to Wei Zheng, a famous minister of the Tang Dynasty, he is empty.

Although Wei Zheng was outspoken and daring to admonish, he was quite politically minded. He did not favor any side, but in reality, he was extremely loyal to Emperor Taizong back then. Therefore, although Wei Zheng contradicted Emperor Taizong several times, Emperor Taizong, who knew Wei Zheng's character, still reused him.

But Lu Yushi is different, this person seems to lack a root in his head, and seriously lacks political wisdom. Dare to say anything. The emperor pampered several concubines overnight, and this person had to foolishly advise the emperor not to do this in the court meeting the next day. It is said that the ancient faint monarch will be desolate and excessive.

And the emperor, although he hated Lu Yushi extremely much, was eager to put him to death. However, the current Great Zhou court needs such a mad dog to disrupt the situation.

Therefore, the emperor still kept him.

Although this person doesn't play a big role, he usually uses it to beat those unruly officials. It's still very useful.

It will not make the other party too sensitive, and it will not let those officials slack off too much.

And those officials who were scolded by Lu Zhi, after a few rounds, also knew that this person was brainless. I won't see him anymore.

This time, the emperor specially sent Lu Yushi and An Peng to Jiangnan together. I wanted this mad dog to specialize in supervising An Peng's killing of Fan Zeng, and by the way, he was beating Jiang Ning's officials, especially the damn fat man Hong who played tricks on his heart.

However, for the emperor's plan, An Peng's heart is indeed like a mirror.

The emperor must have known that this Lu Yushi was not his opponent, but he still insisted on doing so. The truth of this can be understood when you think about it. On the surface, it is a spur of supervision. In fact, he was secretly testing himself.

The widow sent a fool to follow you, to see if you An Peng was disobedient to the order, or to obediently carry out the order.

However, for An Peng, a Fan Zeng is irrelevant. Kill him to ensure the current delicate balance between An Jia and Da Zhou, no matter how you calculate this account.

However, although there is a Lu Yushi system. However, An Peng just took advantage of his temper to do something else.

For example, just yesterday, their group changed their route and arrived at the place where the anti-bandit operation took place a few days ago. An Peng deliberately accidentally told Lu Yushi that Wu Ningyuan had privately transferred troops, and Hong Quan and Wu Ningyuan were embarrassed.

When Lu Yushi learned of this, he was furious.

At that time, this guy was trembling with anger, and in front of many officials, he scolded Wu Ningyuan for ruining the royal reputation and taking the lead in disrupting the laws of the court. And insulted Hong Fat, full of brains, and a corrupt official. Moreover, he threatened on the spot that he would give these two people a good look when they arrived in Jiangning.

So, on the way from the bank of the Yangtze River to Jiangning, Lu Yushi was all iron-faced, and his fists were clenched tightly, as if he was suppressing great anger.

An Peng raised his head and glanced at Lu Yushi, who was enduring his anger, and smiled gloomily.

Oh, sometimes, mad dogs are still useful!

The team stopped, and the creaking carriage stopped. The curtain was lifted by the guards. The line in front of you, get out of the way. Under the city gate in front of him, a group of gray Jiangning officials were exposed.

"Greetings to Lord Chincha!" After Hong Quan saw An Peng walking down with his feet raised on the carriage, he hurriedly took many subordinates behind him, bent down with fists, and saluted and sang to the two Qincha.

raised his head and took a look, and suddenly found that there was another one behind An Peng. This person was wearing a shabby official robe, and his face was pale, as if he had died of his own father.

At this time, this person was wearing a tattered official robe, and he was staring at him with angry eyes.

Hey, it's a royal history? Hong Quan took a closer look at the official uniform on this person's body and barely made out the pattern on it. I was suspicious. I have lived in Jiangnan for decades, and although I have some understanding of Tokyo, I am not very comprehensive after all. For example, this Lu Zhi, who only came out a few years ago and took up the post of imperial history.

"Hong Quan, are you guilty?" After Lu Yushi jumped out of the carriage, he didn't care about Qincha's demeanor, threw off his sleeves, strode in front of Hong Quan, stretched out his finger and pointed at Hong Quan's nose, his beard was trembling, and he reprimanded sternly.

Hong Quanzheng bent down and lowered his head, waiting for An Peng's reply. But he never thought that the blue-faced Yushi jumped in front of him, pointing at himself and shouting inexplicably.

Looking at the fingers in front of him, Hong Quan was at a loss.

"Who's this stupid hat?"
