readx; Outside the inn, Zhu Youzhen's jujube red horse was raising its head and neighing, and when he saw the master coming out, he immediately quieted down, and arched his shoulders affectionately. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Not only did the jujube red horse come back, but Qi Meifeng's Qianli Xue, Li Zhenyan's Daiyun, and all the special combat horses' war horses were all recovered. Zhu Youzhen was simply overjoyed, and muttered to Lu Xiangsheng: "Brother, this..."

Lu Xiangsheng explained everything to him with a smile. It turned out that after the banquet was dispersed, although Zhu Yousong felt angry, he still had to go all out to win over Lu Xiangsheng after thinking about it. Although he can't be kept this time, if the relationship is good, maybe he can be used for himself in the future.

But Lu Xiangsheng is neither rich nor lustful, and Zhu Yousong really doesn't know what means to please him. Later, remembering that he seemed to be unusually in love with the hundred households named You Jian, Zhu Yousong decided to buy this "You Jian" first, in order to achieve the ultimate goal of influencing Lu Xiangsheng.

So he asked Zuo Liangyu to inquire, only to learn that Lu Xiangsheng had forcibly taken "You Jian" away, leaving only more than 20 of their mounts confiscated. Zhu Yousong wanted to send the Buddha to the west, so he simply asked Zuo Liangyu to return the horses.

This time, Lu Xiangsheng was really moved, because after all, it was the stuff of the righteous brother. For this reason, he also came to the door in person to thank him, and Zhu Yousong took the opportunity to send "Cheng Yi" (that is, the travel fee), but Lu Xiangsheng politely declined.

"If it weren't for the elder brother, the younger brother wouldn't have been able to come back!" Zhu Youzhen stroked the mane of the jujube red horse lovingly, and said to Lu Xiangsheng gratefully.

Lu Xiangsheng smiled and said, "My brother, what is there to thank you." It's not too early, let's go! ”

Zhu Youzhen and his entourage got on the horse one after another, and drove out of Luoyang City with Lu Xiangsheng's brigade. Zhu Yousong came to see him off in person, and also gave Lu Xiangsheng three glasses of wine. Lu Xiangsheng naturally didn't know Zhu Yousong's true intentions, and said that this prince was different from other vassal kings, and he knew how to sympathize with the soldiers and the people, but he was also very moved.

After a while, Luoyang City had been left behind, and everyone talked and laughed all the way to the daimyo. Zhu Youzhen and others were trapped in the city for many days, and at this time they all had the feeling of "the sea is wide and the fish jumps, and the sky is high and the birds fly". Especially the red lady, who was almost occupied by the blessed king Zhu Changxun, but at this time, she was free to follow the life-saving benefactor to see the sea, and she was even more excited, chirping all the way.

Qi Meifeng, Li Zhenyan and Chen Yuanyuan were also infected by her straightforwardness and innocence, and the personalities of these three were originally relatively quiet, but now they have become a lot more cheerful and talkative. The four women talked about everything, and they were like glue in less than half a day. It is said that three women are in one play, and now another one has been added, and the sound of the swallow warbler is simply increasing geometrically.

Zhu Youzhen was annoyed by their quarrels, which can be regarded as a happy trouble. Fortunately, there is also Lu Xiangsheng, and the two brothers often walk in the front on horseback, or talk about major events in the world, or tell anecdotes about adventures, which is also very comfortable.

Especially Lu Xiangsheng, he saw that Zhu Youzhen was young, but he had his own unique views on many things, and even some of his knowledge was more clever than himself, and he admired this righteous brother very much. When it was time to camp at night, he had to talk with Zhu Youzhen at night, and the more he talked, the more speculative he became, until the third watch. Although Zhu Youzhen also liked Lu Xiangsheng's straightforwardness and open-mindedness, he couldn't help but complain a little in his heart, secretly saying that he could have studied his homework with Qi Meifeng first, and he didn't want this big brother to be in harmony.

With the protection of the Tianxiong Army, the journey was very smooth. The crowd traveled east from Luoyang to Kaifeng, and then turned due north from Kaifeng, until they arrived at the southernmost Daimyo's mansion in Zhili. Although the journey is more than 700 miles, they are all plain official roads, and everyone rides horses, so the marching speed is very fast, and you can walk at least more than 100 miles a day. In just five days, they arrived at the Daimyo's Mansion.

As soon as you see the Daimyo's castle wall from afar, there are many people along the way to welcome the return of the Tenxiong army. The soldiers of the Tianxiong Army were also very familiar with these people, and from time to time they affectionately called each other's names.

When they arrived at the city gate, thousands of people gathered here, saw Lu Xiangsheng's war horse, and bowed their heads together and said, "Lu Qingtian is back!" ”

"Folks, please get up!" Lu Xiangsheng hurriedly jumped off the war horse and put his hands on each other, but the people had to kowtow to him three times before he got up, and took out all kinds of food and clothing that had already been prepared to work the army. The soldiers didn't accept it at first, but the people insisted on giving it, and finally Lu Xiangsheng had to agree to accept it with tears in his eyes, so they took it, but immediately handed it over to the quartermaster, and none of them put it in their arms.

Zhu Youjian knew at a glance that these people all supported Lu Xiangsheng from the bottom of their hearts and supported his Tianxiong army. I think that Lu Xiangsheng is an honest and upright official here, and the Tianxiong Army is extremely strict in governing the army, so that he can protect the territory and the people, and there is no crime in the autumn, so the people can be so grateful. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if all the officials of the Ming Dynasty were like Lu Xiangsheng, and the officials and troops were like the Tianxiong Army, how could the country fall into the hands of a barbarian with a population of only a few hundred thousand!

When I entered the city of Daimyofu, I saw that the market was bustling, and the people who were buying and selling were not lively, which was not much better than the downtown of Xi'an and Luoyang. Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but admire: "My brother benefits the party for the officials, no wonder the people admire it so much!" ”

Lu Xiangsheng smiled modestly: "The virtuous brother has a good reputation. This famous mansion is a thousand-year-old city, and it was also the capital of the Song Dynasty, called 'Beijing'. At that time, the city wall has two roads inside and outside, the circumference of the outer city is forty-eight miles, there is a palace in the city, the population is not less than one million, it can really be said that the city is dangerous, the trench is wide and the moat is deep, the drum tower is majestic, and the characters are prosperous.

"It's a pity that there was a big flood during the Hongwu period, and the old city was under the silt. Today's Daimyo Castle was built in this dynasty, and it is far from being prosperous in the past. The foolish brother also wants to let the Daimyo's Mansion recreate the prosperity of the Tang and Song dynasties, but unfortunately the sea is restless, and bandits are rising, but he is really powerless! ”

Only then did Zhu Youzhen know that the Daimyo's Mansion still had such a glorious past, and his understanding of the Daimyo in his previous life was limited to "the Daimyo's Mansion Small Grinding Sesame Oil".

Everyone stayed in the government that night, but Lu Xiangsheng was busy until the third watch, and then he had the time to talk to Zhu Youzhen. It turned out that he had been away from the daimyo for more than half a month, and the affairs of the whole mansion had piled up, and he had to deal with it personally.

Zhu Youzhen saw that his eyes were black when he was busy, and said distressedly: "Brother is too tired, you still have to pay attention to rest!" Column... Didn't anyone say that you can't work if you don't rest! ”

"Liezi said this? The foolish brother didn't remember. Lu Xiangsheng was stunned for a moment, and then said with a wry smile, "I also want to have a good night's sleep, but when I think of the fact that there are still things that have not been taken care of, there are case files that have not been read, and the people who are fighting lawsuits are waiting for the yamen to handle it impartially, so thousands of households can't sleep!" Compared to them, what is the foolish brother who rests for a while! ”

Just as a cool breeze blew, several green bamboos planted in the back house danced in the wind. Zhu Youzhen was very emotional, so he said impulsively: "The younger brother has a poem to give to his brother, which is in line with the elder brother Gao Yi: Yazhai lies down and listens to Xiao Xiaozhu, which is suspected to be the voice of the people's suffering." Some small Caozhou county officials, every branch and leaf is always concerned! ”
