On the seventh day of the ninth month of the fourth year of the Great Xia Dynasty, King Lu ascended the throne in the state city.

Although it was in the remote Linzhou, and the rebellion of the first emperor was rampant, the enthronement ceremony was not hasty.

It is precisely because of such a chaotic situation that it is even more solemn and solemn to appease the people, Cui Zheng has already planned, and when he left the capital, he gave up the gold, silver and jewelry collection of ancient books, and brought over as many imperial robes and ceremonies as possible for the enthronement.

Originally, some officials asked to move to Lingzhou as the capital, where the city was larger and had the Great Wall and the river as a barrier, but King Lu refused.

"Thousands of soldiers and civilians in Linzhou have sacrificed themselves here, and this is my foundation."

Before ascending the throne, King Lu first went to the cemetery where the dead soldiers and civilians were buried, and ordered the construction of a temple so that these soldiers and civilians would have incense to worship from generation to generation.

After receiving incense offerings from all the people, the dead can ascend to heaven as immortals, or cast a good life in the next life, and the people run to thank the emperor.

After the fighting of the officers and soldiers, half of the destroyed state city was dressed up, and the officials and people gathered from all over Linzhou to watch the enthronement ceremony of King Lu, and the complicated and solemn scene shocked countless people.

The scene they couldn't see in their dreams before, and they didn't know whether to be happy or sad for a while.

Prime Minister Cui Zheng held the jade seal and read out the edict of enthronement, King Lu took the jade seal and worshiped the temple of heaven and earth, the civil and military officials put on newly made robes, the eunuchs and palace maids who came from the palace took off their worn shoes, and the royal relatives and powerful rich also took out the hidden treasures and hung them on their bodies, and everyone participated in the ceremony in a glamorous manner.

The officers were not very happy with this, because the new clothes of the officers and soldiers could not be made.

With a wave of his hand, King Lu wore a torn bloody military robe, indicating to the heavens that the country was in trouble, but he did not give up blood.

The officials hesitated to persuade again, in fact, there was no need for so many honor guards to hold a ceremony in the Lu Palace, and the soldiers and generals who could participate in the emperor's enthronement ceremony should be noble children, these soldiers and horses.....

Cui Zheng stopped the officials and praised King Lu's approach, now in troubled times, these soldiers have to rely on these soldiers to fight, not on identity, the soldiers have shed blood for the emperor, and the emperor will give glory to the soldiers.

There is another point that Cui Zheng did not say to the officials, now King Lu is obviously obedient to Wu Ya'er, now at this time, King Lu will not refute Wu Ya'er for them, just a few days after meeting, Cui Zheng has understood that King Lu is not as dignified as the first emperor, and his mind is unpredictable.

Things went smoothly, the soldiers regardless of age who bathed and washed their hands and feet wore their old robes and wore their own blood-stained weapons, held flags and held sacrificial ritual vessels in the palace and set up a large array of hundreds of thousands, the sound of the mountain shouting long live shocked the heavens and the earth, and the people knelt on the ground for a long time and could not get up.

Cui Zheng knelt on the ground and saw those generals with red faces with their chests held high and excited, and there were no martial crows among them.

King Lu let the soldiers and horses be the honor guard because Wu Ya'er, but Wu Ya'er was not among them, it is said that it was because of serious injuries.

Cui Zheng didn't believe it at all, this young martial artist from the countryside should not be underestimated, extremely treacherous, and scheming and sophisticated.

"Go and ask what Wu Ya'er is doing?" He whispered to the officials beside him.

.......

.......

"None of them will be there."

"They're all going out."

The military camp was set up ten miles outside the state city, because many people went to attend the enthronement ceremony, and the military camp seemed a little quiet.

Jiang Ming and the others did not go to the state city to watch the ceremony, they packed up their baggage and came to Wu Ya'er to resign, but they were told that they were not there, and asked where to go, and the guards didn't know whether they really didn't know or didn't say, they only said that they didn't know.

Fortunately, not long after, a black horse galloped in the distance, returning with a martial crow in ordinary clothes and still an unusual appearance.

"Where are they going?" Jiang Ming asked curiously, and saw a cloth bag in Wu Ya'er's hand, which was not big or small.

Wu Ya'er jumped off the horse, and the cloth bag was casually hung on the black horse's neck and patted, and the big black horse happily accepted the task and sent the things to the camp tent, so that it could enter the tent and find something that could not be chewed every day except forage.

"Found something." Wu Ya'er said vaguely, looking at Jiang Ming and the others' outfits, "Are you leaving?" ”

Jiang Ming responded: "It's been too long since I came out, and now that King Lu and the general are safe, let's go back quickly to say hello to Mrs. and Young Madame." ”

Wu Ya'er said: "Two more days." ”

This is the first time he has opened his mouth to refuse, in the past, both of them were you know and I know, you go with the water and I push the boat, never interfere with each other's wishes, after all, they are strangers.

Jiang Ming was a little puzzled.

Wu Ya'er explained: "I have prepared some things for my mother, but they are not yet complete. ”

Jiang Ming suddenly smiled and responded, Wu Ya'er didn't seem to want to talk about this matter, and looked in the other direction: "I'm going to go to the wounded barracks to have a look, two of you are also recuperating from your injuries, right?" ”

Jiang Ming and others were also injured in the battle after crossing the river, and the most serious two people will stay here to recuperate.

Although he had already said goodbye, Jiang Ming didn't mind going to see it again, so he went to the wounded barracks together.

The place where the wounds were recuperating was different from the solemn barracks, it was full of groans of pain, the smell of decay, and the strong smell of medicine.

Seeing Wu Ya'er coming, the busy military doctors and miscellaneous servants just greeted: "Lord Du is here again." ”

The wounded soldiers in the barracks were a little puzzled: "Why did they come back today?" Isn't it His Majesty's enthronement ceremony? ”

Wu Ya'er looked at the injuries recorded by the doctor, and replied: "They represent us to participate in His Majesty's enthronement ceremony, and I will accompany you." ”

The wounded soldiers laughed happily.

If you don't have money to say more good and obedient words, you can also raise soldiers, Jiang Ming smiled, but there was respect in his eyes, it was not easy to say it and do it.

"Everything, you're here, my injuries are healed, let them let me out."

Walking into another barracks, most of them were slightly injured, and a few of them jumped up, showing that they could move freely.

Wu Ya'er looked at it and shouted out the name of the sturdy wounded soldier: "Chen Yu, was injured crossing the river?" ”

More than half of the soldiers selected by the Zhenwu Army to cross the river drowned in the Wuding River, and the rest also had all kinds of injuries, some of them held their breath for too long and fell into a coma and have not woken up so far, some choked on water and injured their internal organs, and some hit the river side of the river and broke their muscles and bones....

"I just choked on a few mouthfuls of water and broke a few holes in my back." Chen Yu unbuttoned his shirt and patted his chest and turned around to let Wu Ya'er see, "These are all minor injuries, they've healed, I know how to water, my name is Yu'er." ”

A wounded soldier sitting on the bed next to him giggled: "But your surname is Chen." ”

Chen Yu snorted at him.

Wu Ya'er saw that the injury on Chen Yu's back was indeed not serious, and it was very healthy that new meat had grown, so he asked the accompanying doctor.

The doctor frowned: "His external injuries and choking are indeed healed, but, I don't know why, he always has a burst of convulsions in the middle of the night, which is very powerful." ”

"I'm choking on water and it's cold, just drink more hot soup." Chen Harpoon said, turning around, "Do I have any other questions besides?" And hasn't there been less trouble these days? ”

"Nothing else, really." The doctor nodded and admitted, "It's really less than the previous few days." ”

Jiang Ming looked at Chen Yu from the side, frowning and thinking, this symptom seems to be .....

"I'm really fine." Chen Yu took advantage of Wu Ya'er's presence and tried his best to prove, "Let me go out, my body is lying down with no strength." ”

Chen Yu said as he slapped his bare muscles.

"Look, me, it's really fine....."

At this point, his face changed suddenly, and the man threw himself to the ground, twitching and swinging like a fish, his eyes clenched and his teeth clenched and he made a gurgling sound.

"That's it!" The doctor shouted and pounced on Chen Yu.

The other wounded soldiers in the room also hurriedly stepped forward to hold down Chen Yu, and their movements were skillful, obviously not for the first time.

The doctor skillfully poured the medicine and needle, and the needle was only half done, and the medicine was almost not poured in, so Chen Yu stopped.

"Being able to stop is not the effect of the medicine stone." The doctor continued, "It was he who stopped, so it's really weird. ”

Chen Yu was lying on the ground sweating profusely, his face was pale, but his eyes had regained clarity, and he muttered again: "Look, let's just say it's not a disease, I am..."

Before he finished his words, Jiang Ming shouted: "I know!" It's dead ichthyosax! ”

With that, he pounced.

Several other people also immediately squeezed out of the doctor, grabbed Chen Yu, and pressed Chen Yu, who had just sat up, to the ground.

Jiang Ming had already pulled out the dagger in his boots, and his hand was up and down, cutting the wound on Chen Yu's back that had just grown.

The severe pain made Chen Yu scream and flutter, but was held down by several people.

The rest of the room didn't react until then, and the wounded soldiers got out of bed, and some came around angrily.

"Why cut him!" Someone shouted, Jiang Ming used the knife extremely ruthlessly, and a large piece of flesh was cut off from the wound on Chen Yu's back, "His injury is just right..... Yes! ”

The shouting stopped abruptly, and the wounded soldiers who surrounded them all stopped and looked at Chen Yu on the ground in disbelief.

Instead of blood gushing from the cut wound, the old fish revealed a piece of black flesh, and at the same time, the putrid smell instantly filled the room, which was disgusting.
