Chapter 585: Resignation
When Lu Yan heard these words, his face had not changed, and he opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly several ministers appeared and said loudly: "Your Majesty, no!" ”
"Oh?" The emperor glanced at those people, "Why not?" ”
"General Lu has made a great contribution this time, and he should be added to the rank of knight, and he was named the general of the Zhenguo, which is well deserved, but the military talisman is the foundation of the country, and it cannot be easily given to others."
"It's just a military talisman, and Lu Aiqing's loyalty and patriotism are known to passers-by, and I believe in him."
Although the emperor said this on his mouth, looking at Lu Yan's eyes was meaningful.
All the ministers present are old foxes, and when they see the emperor's style, where is there anything they don't understand.
Your Majesty is putting pressure on General Lu!
General Lu's son took it and asked him to study in the palace, although on the surface it seemed that the emperor remembered General Lu's merits, but on the other hand, he was also worried that he would be rebellious.
At that time, Lu Wei'an, who stayed in the palace to listen to the school, could be used to restrain him.
And leaving the talisman in Lu Yan's hand, I'm afraid it's just a temptation of the emperor, if Lu Yanzhen takes this talisman next, it will definitely be difficult in the future, maybe the emperor who will be suspicious, just find a reason, take back the talisman and don't say it, maybe he will lose the position of general of Zhenguo.
The emperor's abacus is a good one!
Everyone thought of a piece in their hearts, but no one was willing to stand up and say something, for no other reason, since ancient times, emperors have been so suspicious and suspicious, the situation and style are like this, and people with high merit will always be restrained.
Lu Yan's face didn't change at all, he just knelt down and said first: "Thank you, Lord Longen!" ”
The faces of the emperor and the ministers changed, and just when they thought that Lu Yan was going to put this talisman in his arms, Lu Yan said again: "However, the ministers still have one more thing to ask for, I hope the emperor can agree." ”
"Lu Aiqing has something else to say!"
Although the emperor was a little dissatisfied with what he promised so happily, after hearing him say these words, it was not good to give him no face in front of the public, but he secretly thought in his heart that Lu Yandu had already received such a great reward, and he was still insatiable.
Who knew that Lu Yan said those words in the next second, but the emperor overturned all the thoughts in his heart.
"The minister implores the emperor to allow the minister to disarm and return to the field."
……
The court was calm for a moment, and suddenly the audience was in an uproar, and they all looked at Lu Yan with incredible eyes.
Lu Yan is afraid that he is already stupid.
All the ministers present here are thinking like this in their hearts, how can anyone finally work hard to be born and die, and after returning from victory, they want to unload their armor and return to the field.
Fame, fortune and power are in front of him, but he doesn't want these alone, isn't this person a fool or what?
Everyone in the room was in an uproar.
Only the old man Yao, who was standing in the corner, looked at the eyes of the people around him, and then snorted coldly, looking a little disdainful.
Lu Yan can be regarded as half of his grandson, and of course he knows what he thinks in his heart.
Lu Yan has never been an official.
Si Si stood beside Lu Yan, and after hearing the words that he wanted to unload his armor and return to the field, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the people around him with some surprise.
Don't want to be an official, want to unload your armor and return to the field?
Why did Lu Yan never say these words to himself?
When Si Sizheng looked at Lu Yan in surprise, Lu Yan also turned his head, lowered his head slightly, looked at Si Si, smiled at her, and then reached out and gently held her hand.
"Your Majesty, now that the war in the South China Sea has been calmed down, the Great Zhou Dynasty is a thriving peaceful faction, and it is useless for the minister to stay in the capital to be a Zhenguo general."
"During the days when the minister and his wife were separated, I missed it very much, and I had already made a decision, and when I returned from victory, I would unload my armor and return to the field, and live with my wife as an ordinary person in the countryside."
"Didn't the emperor just ask the ministers if there was anything they wanted? Other fame and fortune reward money, the minister does not want it, the minister only asks for this and asks for the emperor's permission. ”
Lu Yan looked at his wife very affectionately, turned his head, looked at the emperor and said firmly: "There is nothing else to ask for." ”
"I never thought of you, Lu Aiqing, you are still an infatuated species."
The emperor frowned slightly, and there seemed to be a sigh in his expression, but it was more of a difficulty.
What is difficult for the emperor to do, none of the people present do not know.
Isn't it because General Lu has just returned from victory, and he will propose to unload his armor and return to the field here, if the emperor agrees too easily, it will inevitably fall into the tongue of the mouth, and he will have to shirk it after a few back and forth, and it seems that he is not so deliberate to reluctantly agree.
"But I just thought that Lu Aiqing was still young and strong, and it was especially early to unload his armor and return to the field, so why not be a general in the capital for a few years and do his best for my Great Zhou Dynasty, how about it?"
There was some discussion in the emperor's tone, and he continued: "After all, Lu Aiqing, you are now the victorious general of our Great Zhou Dynasty, and the god of war of our Great Zhou Dynasty, as long as you are here, the people will be at ease." ”
Although this is true, it inevitably pokes the royal family.
Now that their royal family has no majesty, do they have to rely on Lu Yan, a general, to calm the people's hearts?
"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't think so."
Lu Yan's mind has not changed from beginning to end, and he also knows that it is just the emperor and himself being polite at this time.
"As long as there is the emperor and the Great Zhou Dynasty, why should the people worry about living and working in peace and contentment, and the ministers are just a reckless man, how can they take on this great responsibility."
When Lu Yan said this, he paused, as if he was afraid that the emperor would not be willing to agree to his request to unload his armor and return to the field, and continued: "In fact, the minister's body bones were attacked as early as a few years ago, and there was a sneak attack in the middle of Beijing, and then after the amnesia, there was something not very good, and every time it was cold weather, there would be a faint pain in the waist and legs. ”
"This request for Xie Jia's return to the field is not a whim, but a request that the minister decided to make after careful consideration."
"Please ask the emperor for permission!"
"This ......"
The emperor's face seemed to be a little hesitant, but after glancing at Lu Yan several times and making sure that he really wanted this, he said as if he had made up his mind: "Okay, since Lu Aiqing you insist on this, then I will be approved." ”
"But you still have to stay in the capital for a few more days, and wait until the fifth prince is the crown prince before leaving."
The emperor ignored the somewhat surprised faces of the courtiers, and said: "After all, you are also a great hero!" ”
"Minister, thank you, Lord Longen."
