Chapter 53: See Your Majesty
Before dawn the next day, Lu Fuling set off for Beijing. After discussing with Fan Song, she only brought a team from Ye Fang's camp, pretending to be an eastbound caravan, and twelve shadow guards selected by Ying Xu to protect them along the way. Lu Fuling sat obediently in the car at first, but when she passed the North Pass, she simply abandoned the car and rode south with the soldiers, and the speed of the march became faster.
Even so, it was twenty days before she returned to the capital of Dakang. The people from Xiuhetang met her at the city gate, but she simply found a place to change her clothes and went all the way to the palace.
The entourage was not allowed to enter the palace, so Lu Lingling simply took her palace card and drove all the way from Guangping Gate to stop until she got off the horse outside the Chengtian Palace. I saw Wei Quan waiting at the door from a distance, presumably because he got the news and waited for her here. Lu Fuling threw the reins to the little eunuch, walked a few steps towards the Chengtian Palace, then turned around and disappeared over the wall into Wei Quan's field of vision.
Wei Quan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly made gestures to suppress the little eunuch who was about to pass the message. After thinking for a moment, he sighed and turned back to the main hall.
The little emperor was originally discussing with his ministers, and suddenly a secret agent came to report that Lu Guifei had arrived in Beijing today and had entered the palace to go to Chengtian Palace. The little emperor suppressed the inexplicable feelings in his heart, and asked Wei Quan to wait at the door, so as not to let Lu Fuling rush in and stimulate this group of old scholars. But it didn't take long for Wei Quan to come in alone, shake his head at him, and signal him to be calm.
Calm down? The little emperor rolled his eyes in his heart, you might as well try. But there is no other way, patiently listen to Bai Ci reciting articles in the hall.
What Bai Ci said is actually related to the war in the north. As soon as Qin Kelu passed the Acropolis, he encountered the iron cavalry led by Deng Dongnan, Shaoqing of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and was defeated in battle, and even the Acropolis garrison officer Qin Kenan was also captured, and now his whereabouts are unknown, and life and death are unpredictable. Of course, this was Lu Ling's plan. One of the initiators sat in the warm pavilion behind the hall at this time, drinking hot tea calmly.
After the little emperor finished his deliberations and the ministers withdrew, Wei Quan stepped forward and said that Lu Poria appeared for a moment and disappeared. The little emperor frowned when he heard this, what is the situation with this?
"Concubine, see Your Majesty." Suddenly, a clear voice came from the door, and a figure slowly approached, and the face became clearer, "Your Majesty's hard work, benevolence and virtue are really the blessings of all the people." When she got closer, Lu Fuling knelt down on her knees and made a big salute.
"Poria ......" the little emperor's expression changed, he was happy for a while, and he was shocked for a while, especially when Poria said the second half of the sentence, the little emperor's face became complicated for a while. But the joy of goodbye still prevailed, and the little emperor rushed down to help her up, seeing that although she had cleaned up, she could still see the hard work of the wind and dust and the road all the way. "How did you get back? Tired of it, right? Ready for dinner? Wei Quan, pass on the meal! ”
Lu Fuling looked at the little emperor's eyes, as bright as in her memory, and bent out of a pleasant arc. The concern in her eyes couldn't be faked, and somewhere in her heart instantly softened. Lu Lingling took a deep breath and forced her tears back. She smiled and let the little emperor take her hand and go to the Xuanwu Palace.
Passing by, Lu Poria couldn't help but stop and look up at this piece of pink mist, with a pious and yearning expression. The little emperor stared at her side face with slightly squinted eyes, such an expression was completely unfamiliar to him. He had to admit that he coveted everything about her more than he thought. That's why when the spies come back with that kind of news, he gets carried away and does it without thinking about the consequences. But now, she's back.
"Poria, let's go." The little emperor called to her softly, wrapped her little hand in the palm of his hand, and passed through the open acacia.
