――――――――――――――――――

Jiajun Wang Lin, the third son of Qi Wang Xian, his biological mother is Wang Zheng's concubine Qin, Qin committed suicide for the crime of rebellion, and the county king was lost his title. King Shi was ordered to town Zezhou and take him to the army. In the twenty-seventh year of Wuwei, the king of the county followed his father to the East China Sea, and saw the princess of Changle of Ningguo, the princess took pity on her innocence, and returned to Chang'an with the king of the county.

In the fifth year of Longsheng, Princess Jiaping of Qi, Princess Lin Bi gave birth to a son, Zhuo, and became the son. Taizong was awarded the title of his third son, the prince of the county, with the high merit of the king of Qi.

――"Yongshi - The Biography of King Jiajun"

In fact, when he received the post of Li Lin, the king of Jiajun, Lu Yun was not surprised, after arriving in Chang'an, Lu Yun tried to find out the origin of the king of Jiajun, this matter is not a secret, in fact, it is quite talked about by people in the market.

Li Lin, the king of Jiajun, the third son of Li Xian, the king of Qi, was originally the son of Qin Zheng, the princess of Qi, and was extremely noble, but it was a pity that Qin Zheng was involved in rebellion, although he committed suicide and apologized, and the father and son of Qi were not implicated, but the son is valued by the mother, and Li Lin's position as the son of the world is not guaranteed, and the king of Qi originally did not care about this son-in-law, so at that time, everyone thought that Li Lin would never have a future, not only his half-brother, but even the slaves in the palace dared to bully him. A few years later, Li Lin met Jiang Zhe and Princess Changle in the East China Sea. Even after the King of Qi married Princess Lin Bi of Jiaping, Li Lin's status was not affected, although the prince of Qi was owned by his son-in-law Li Zhuo, but Emperor Yong immediately issued an edict to confer Li Lin as the king of the county, so that although Li Lin could not inherit the position of the prince of the king of Qi, it was far better than those princes who could only be crowned an idle marquis if they had no merits, and now Li Lin is deeply valued by the prince, and his future career will be smooth sailing, so although Li Lin is young, he has become a powerful figure that the Dayong government and the opposition cannot but pay attention to.

However, the people of Chang'an are the most talked-about is the independent special of this king of Jiajun, although he is only eleven years old, he is still an ignorant child in ordinary people, but this county king has been famous in Chang'an, in addition to accompanying the prince to read every day, is to wander inside and outside Chang'an with the guards, and likes to cause trouble the most, Chang'an's noble children see him like a mouse seeing a cat, and there are also imperial historians who write a letter of impeachment, but the emperor laughed when he heard it, saying that this son has the style of King Qi back then, and he will leave the music in the middle and do not ask, In this way, no one in Chang'an dared to offend King Jiajun. Fortunately, although this county king is high-flying, he doesn't like to bully the weak, and often has uneven behaviors, so Chang'an people are not disgusted with him, and after a long time, they feel that although the temper of the king of Jiajun is not good, his heart is not bad.

And this Jiajun King's biggest hobby is to recruit warriors, if you meet a person with strong martial arts, you must try your best to test the strength of that person, if it is outstanding, it is often recommended to the various armies to follow Rong, or stay by his side as a guard, although he is young, his vision is very accurate, all of his fancy are almost Junjie, and later, a letter of recommendation from Jiajun King is more effective than the documents of the Ministry of War. Therefore, although King Jiajun often makes trouble and makes people difficult, those who have a heart know that this is a good opportunity and not a trouble.

Although Song Jian and others have been in Chang'an for a long time, they don't know very well, but those local snakes in Chang'an know very well, after they heard that Lu Yun offended the king of Jiajun, they congratulated again and again, saying that as long as Lu Yun's identity is innocent, then it is very likely to get a good opportunity to be promoted, but some people are worried about him, because although the king of Jiajun is usually domineering, his behavior that day is still a little unusual. After learning that it was Jiang Roulan, the county lord of Zhaohua, who was traveling with the county king that day, those people all looked ambiguous, Lu Yun asked for a long time, and those people vaguely told Lu Yun that the county lord of Zhaohua was deeply favored by the royal family, and it was said that His Royal Highness the prince and the king of Jiajun of the dynasty were obedient to her, if Lu Yun had more experience, he would naturally understand the meaning, but he had never studied and practiced martial arts at home in his life, or wandered around the military camp, so after hearing it, he only felt that it was in the clouds, and he didn't know why.

But in any case, Lu Yun came to the conclusion that King Jiajun would never let him go, whether it was good or bad, and his only way was to wait for King Jiajun to make a move, if it was unfortunate and his identity was revealed, he would naturally be dead or alive, but if he was lucky, he might be able to take the opportunity to approach the target of assassination. So after receiving Li Lin's invitation, although Lu Yun was annoyed by the commanding tone above and the look of the few guards who came to invite you to tie you up if you don't go, he still agreed to go to the meeting.

Riding along Suzaku Street, the buildings on both sides are magnificent and majestic, which is dizzying, but Lu Yun has no intention of watching, and he is about to enter the imperial city of Dayong, which makes him excited and frightened in his heart. On the road, he saw forbidden troops patrolling back and forth from time to time, and Lu Yun knew that this was because Emperor Yongdi's birthday was about to be celebrated and the capital had strengthened its defenses. When he arrived at the Vermilion Bird Gate, those guards were used to coming and going every day, and they were chatting and laughing with the guards who guarded the door, but they still needed to hand over the token for checking, Lu Yun's heart was gloomy again, and he had seen the looseness of Jianye's imperial city guards.

After entering the Vermilion Bird Gate, it is the Chengtian Street connected with the Chengtian Gate, on both sides of the street are the three provinces and six departments of various yamen, all of which are strictly guarded, magnificent, Chengtian Street is halfway through, those few guards lead Lu Yun to the east side, that is Jingfengmen Street, through Jingfeng Gate walked for a long time before entering Anxingfang, Qi Wangfu occupies almost a quarter of the area of Anxingfang, Jiajun Wang has not yet opened the mansion, naturally still lives in his father's mansion. Lu Yun didn't know that in fact, with Li Lin's token, he could directly walk the street between Shengye Fang and Chongren Fang from the corner gate of the imperial city to reach the Qi Palace.

However, it was specially arranged by Li Lin to let Lu Yun come in from this road. First, Lu Yun's identity is a little unclear after all, and he doesn't want him to come into contact with those shortcuts, and secondly, he also wants to give Lu Yun a dismount through the solemn atmosphere on both sides of Suzaku Street, and by the way, take a look at Lu Yun's bearing, of course, in Li Lin's mind, it is aimed at the young Yunlu of Southern Chu, not Lu Yun, the eldest son of Lu Can, the general of Southern Chu, so he didn't expect that although Lu Yun was also quite emotional, he was not deterred at all, so when he saw that Lu Yun's expression was still so calm and indifferent, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, After all, for a commoner, the majesty of the imperial city was enough to deter and suppress his soul.

The place where Li Lin received Lu Yun was his residence Jingu Garden, which was a relatively independent garden, originally the residence of Li Xian, the king of Qi, Li Xian and the princess Qin Zheng had a disagreement, so he was unwilling to live in the inner house, but stayed in the Jingu Garden, the king of Qi was Li Yuan's favorite prince, when he opened the mansion, Li Yuan rewarded him with the most Huangzhuang property, and even his palace was wider and more luxurious than Li An and Li Zhen's palace. Although Li Xian can share weal and woe with the soldiers in the army, he still likes luxury people, so the Jingu Garden where he has lived for many years is really prosperous and magnificent. After Li Xian and Lin Bi got married, the husband and wife were harmonious, so they naturally moved back to the inner house, after Li Lin was crowned the king of the county, although he had not yet opened the mansion because he was young, but it was inconvenient to live in the inner house, so Li Xian gave the Golden Valley Garden to Li Lin. Li Lin is more wild than Li Xian, and he doesn't care about these garden scenes, so he has never changed the layout of the garden, but when the prince Li Jun and Jiang Roulan, the lord of Zhaohua County, came to play, they each picked their favorite places to stay, and then forced Li Lin to rebuild them a few times according to their wishes.

After Lu Yun walked into the Golden Valley Garden, he couldn't help but be dizzy, although the Lu family was also a general, and he didn't worry about food and clothing, but the previous generations of family heads were honest and self-controlled, so the furnishing gardens at home were not better than ordinary officials, but after all, Lu Yun had also seen the world, and he was not very greedy for glory and wealth, so he quickly settled down and walked to Biyun Pavilion with the guards.

There is the dragon's head canal in the Golden Valley Garden through, gather a pool of clear water, more than ninety percent of the buildings in the whole garden are built near the water, the pondside piles stones into a mountain, the rockery is about twenty or thirty zhang high, the cliffs stand in a forest, covers an area of several acres of square circle, there is a two-storey small building of Feidan eaves on the mountain, only a winding mountain road paved with black stone can pass up and down. Just a team of forbidden troops to guard at the foot of the mountain, even if you are a first-class master, don't want to enter and exit casually.

Walking along the mountain road, Lu Yun's heart calmed down, with his knowledge of being born in Jiangmen, he naturally knew that this was a Jedi that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it was also a good place for prisoners under house arrest, but presumably he was an ordinary teenager, no one would bother like this, so it must have been Li Lin who summoned him at his residence, which was also a kind of favor. Walk up to the top of the mountain, at a glance you see that Biyun Pavilion is alone, all around, empty, although the rockery is paved with thick soil, but only planted some low evergreen shrubs, at a glance, not at all * full, but feel that there is a late autumn gloom, the pavilion is and the negative hand standing in front of the Zhu Railing, overlooking the blue wave of the young man is generally arrogant and domineering.

Lu Yun walked behind Li Lin and bowed down: "Caomin Yun Road, knock on His Royal Highness the King of Jiajun Chitose." ”

Li Lin didn't let him calm down, and said coldly: "This king summoned you here, do you know what the purpose is?" ”

Lu Yun said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "If the grass people offend His Highness, if His Highness is punished, the grass people will not complain." ”

Li Lin turned his head and smiled, his cold temperament was immediately destroyed by his childish smile, he came over and picked up Lu Yun with his own hands and said: "It seems that I can't scare you, when the king of Japan is also a little excited, I can't help but humiliate you, but you were rude to the lord of Zhaohua that day, no wonder this king is angry, today this king invited you to come, first, I want to give you a gift, and second, this king also wants to see your archery skills." ”

Even though Lu Yun was hostile, he also felt warm in his heart, and said in his heart, no wonder this King of Jiajun had such a reputation at a young age, and he deserved to be the son of King Qi, a famous general of the Dayong royal family. He got up and said, "Please ask the prince of the county to command." ”

Li Lin rolled his eyes and said: "I don't have a school field here, Zhaohua doesn't allow me to build it here, but just to see your archery skills, it's too troublesome to go to my father's school field, you may shoot that tree." "Pointing to a willow tree near the water in the distance, it is a hundred and fifty steps away from the rockery, and there is a huge disparity in height, if you want to shoot the willow tree, you must have first-class archery skills.

Lu Yun's bow and arrows have been taken away by the guards, and he was about to ask Li Lin for them, only to see a guard come over with a pair of bows and arrows, the bow is a rhino horn bow, and there are twenty fine carved arrows in the gold-painted quiver. After pulling the bow and making the empty string a few times, he took three carved arrows, drew the bow and shot, only to see three wisps of black light flash away, and the three carved arrows actually shot on the same wicker. A hundred steps away, three arrows in a row were shot at the willow fluttering in the wind, such archery can already be called a magic arrow, Li Lin's eyes were full of light, and he sighed to himself, seeing Lu Yun put the rhino horn bow back on the plate, still full of nostalgia, Li Lin smiled and said: "Okay, Brother Yun, your archery skills are really extraordinary, this bow is refined by the Ministry of Industry, one in a thousand, and only such a bow is worthy of your archery skills, this king will give you this pair of bows and arrows, you can't refuse." ”

Lu Yun loved this bow and arrow very much in his heart, and he also had the heart to get close to Li Lin, so he bowed down and said, "The prince of Xie Jun rewarded him, and the grass people were ashamed to accept it." ”

Li Lin was overjoyed when he saw him so bold, and said: "How can you fall into the rivers and lakes with such archery skills, I heard that you have no relatives in your hometown, why don't you stay by the side of this king as a guard, I am a great Yongsu martial artist, you have a bright future here, and you don't have to be a slave to the faint monarch and traitorous ministers of Southern Chu." ”

Lu Yun knew that Li Lin had inquired about his forged life experience from the caravan, and deliberately showed a hesitant look and said: "The grass people are from Southern Chu, and their homeland is difficult to leave, and I am afraid that there are some obstacles because of their background. ”

Li Lin said with a smile: "You are too worried, I have a lot of rivers in the Great Yonghai, and I never care about these small things about my origin, not to mention that you are from Southern Chu, although the two countries have exchanged soldiers, they have also been friends for many years, that is, the original soldiers of the Northern Han Army, most of them are dyed with the blood of my Dayong soldiers and civilians, and now they are not still reused." ”

Lu Yun pretended to be the blockade in his heart, and said happily: "In this way, the grass people thank the prince of the county for his appreciation and support." ”

Li Lin said: "This is also your own ability, you are not very old, and it is not convenient to join the army now, so let's do it, you will stay by the king's side as a guard, if there is a war in a few years, go out with this king, and you can make a name for yourself, and after a while, you will write down your life history clearly and hand it over to my chief guard, and wait until the military department has a palindrome after the secretary of the military department has a palindrome, and it will be a registered guard." ”

Lu Yun felt a pang in his heart, although this young county king loved talents, he was not a gullible person, but he secretly thought that if he didn't have a period of time, he wouldn't be able to prove the truth of his life experience at all, and although his life experience was faked, it was not completely nonsense. He claimed that he was from Yunqiao Village, Jiangxia, his parents were dead, and he had an uncle who had left his hometown many years ago, and it was said that someone in Chang'an had seen him, so he came to look for his relatives. This Jiangxia Yunqiao Village does exist, although it has nothing to do with Lu Yun, his own ancestral home is Wu County, and Jiangxia is the place where his grandfather has guarded for many years, so Lu Yun is no stranger to the situation in Jiangxia Township. Besides, Nanchu has been adjacent to strong neighbors over the years, and people from border villages have moved into Dayong everywhere, so his life experience is not completely unfounded, and there may not be such a young man looking for relatives and leaving home in Yunqiao Village, Jiangxia. And Lu Yun claimed that he had no crown ceremony at home that day, and he had no name, only one milk name was called Erlang, in Nanchu Village, if this milk name was called out, he was afraid that five or six out of ten people would agree, so Lu Yun was not worried that his true identity would be discovered, even if he found some problems, according to his estimates, Li Lin would not necessarily kill himself as a spy. Besides, after this period of time, even if he can't succeed, he still has a chance to escape, so Lu Yun bowed his head and said yes, without showing a trace of panic.

Li Lin saw that he was obedient, but he didn't feel strange, although Lu Yun was very cold and arrogant that day, but after all, his identity was very different, and he treated him politely, he naturally shouldn't be too hypocritical, such a performance was a matter of course, thinking that he might have recruited an outstanding young guard, he smiled and said: "Yunlu, you don't have to be too formal, the rules in our house are not as strict as those of other families, and after your identity is verified, this king will take you to see your father, and he also wants to see your martial arts." ”

Lu Yun's heart is cold, the reputation of the king of Qi in Southern Chu can stop children crying at night, he fought in Jingxiang twice, killed countless people, and now he has leveled the Northern Han Dynasty, in the rumors of Southern Chu, King Qi is synonymous with butchers, of course, in Lu Yun's mind, King Qi is one of his father's opponents, if he has the opportunity to meet, he is also very much looking forward to it.

In the following days, Lu Yun was left in Biyun Pavilion by Li Lin, Biyun Pavilion was Li Lin's bedroom, and it was not appropriate to let the junior Lu Yun stay here, but there were no confidential documents here, so Li Lin had always arranged a person with Lu Yun's status here first, which could not only play the role of house arrest, but also have the meaning of trust.

coincided with Emperor Yong's birthday, the court was very busy, Li Lin had to enter the palace almost every day to accompany the prince, Lu Yun's identity had not yet been clarified, so naturally he could not enter the palace, although Li Lin was not there, but he was always accompanied by guards, and he was even more polite to dissuade him from leaving Jingu Garden, Lu Yun was frightened but helpless. A few days later, it was Emperor Yong's birthday, the whole world celebrated, Li Lin was left in the East Palace by the prince, Lu Yun could only sit in the city, eager to give up the assassination and escape, but the Qi Palace's security was heavily guarded, Lu Yun couldn't move around casually at all, he simply broke the jar and fell, stayed in Biyun Pavilion and didn't go out, thinking that at most his identity was doubtful and he lost the opportunity to get close to the target.

On the third day after Emperor Yong's birthday, Lu Yun was summoned by Li Lin, who returned from the palace, and when Lu Yun walked in, he saw a middle-aged official standing with his hands solemn, and Li Lin was sitting on the main seat looking at the cotton paper in his hand. This time, Li Lin was not wearing the black arrow suit he usually wears, but wearing the county king's costume, apricot yellow robe, and a golden crown. Seeing Lu Yun come in, he smiled and handed the tissue paper in his hand to Lu Yun, and said, "Although it is not nine out of ten, your identity is generally no longer a problem." ”

Lu Yun held back the surprise in his heart, and took the piece of tissue paper, on which were written some small characters, recording the family history of a young man in Xia Lu Village, Nanchu River. Father is a low-level general who was injured and discharged, mother is a lady of a scholarly family, both parents have died of illness, the clan is scattered, there is an uncle whose whereabouts are unknown, the teenager has been practicing martial arts since childhood, good at archery, three years ago away from home, has not yet been crowned, the name Erlang, but because there is no clan, so I don't know the age. Lu Yun almost exclaimed, he couldn't imagine that there was really such a person, although it was a little different from his own description, but he could basically vaguely pass it, and while he was glad that his life experience would not cause obstacles, Lu Yun couldn't help but secretly thank God.

Li Lin went to the piece of tissue paper and said: "No wonder your archery skills are outstanding, it turned out to be Keshao Qiqiu, since your identity is no longer a problem, walk beside me in the future, just after a while, I will send the county lord of Hongxia and Wang Yibin back to Daizhou, you go with me." ”

Lu Yun's heart moved, if he saw off the lord of Hongxia, King Qi and Princess Jiaping would definitely go, and they couldn't help but show a look of anticipation when they saw so many famous generals in one fell swoop.
