Chapter 149: Please Your Majesty Reform the Imperial Examination!

Today is the twenty-fifth day of the lunar month, and in a few days it will be the New Year.

Every family, but anyone with a little money, tried their best to decorate their doors and windows beautifully to welcome the upcoming ten years of Zhenguan.

The first year was not easy, but it was not as difficult as the first two or three years of Zhenguan.

Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, it has first fought all over the world, and it was not easy to finish the local rebels, and then the Weishui Alliance of the Turks came.

Fortunately, there is Li Jing, a few years ago, the surprise army raided and wiped out the Turks in one fell swoop, which will never cause trouble.

The good news continues one after another, even if there are still natural disasters from time to time, but the people feel that this day is finally getting better day by day.

The suburbs of Beijing, Lu Zhai.

Approaching the Chinese New Year, Lu Heng, who had been staying in Chang'an City, also returned.

"Dad, mother, what are you doing?"

As soon as Lu Heng entered the door, he saw a scene that made him tremble.

Cheap dad Lu Tongren is actually standing on a ladder hanging lanterns!

The round body was a little shaky, and even the wooden ladder under his feet looked a little unstable.

Shaw and a servant helped hold the ladder underneath.

Seeing that her son was back, she said in a loud voice:

"Hey Heng'er, you're back!"

"Your father has to hang this lantern himself, saying that it is more blessed for the lord to hang it himself......"

"He wants to paste blessing words, light firecrackers or something, it's all right."

"But in such a dangerous job, he refuses to let the servants interfere, how can it be good if he falls!"

It can be seen that Xiao is also worried.

Lu Tongren usually listens to her very much, but he is a little stubborn in some things.

Lu Heng walked over speechlessly, ready to take over his mother's post to help with the ladder.

The result is at this time.

On the ladder, Lu Tongren, who was trying to reach the lantern, suddenly shook his body, and he was about to fall to the ground when he saw it!

Lu Heng's eyes were quick, he held the ladder with his left hand, and lifted it up with all his strength with his right hand, which just stabilized his father's figure.

Xiao, who saw everything with his own eyes on the side, was covered in white sweat in the winter.

She was anxious.

"Lu Tongren, hurry up and give the old lady down!"

"If you continue to do this work by yourself, then we will go and leave tomorrow!"

Lu Tongren on the ladder knew that he was at a loss, but he still wanted to be tough in front of his son.

He muttered:

"If it weren't for the fact that this rebel happened to come home, I wouldn't have looked back...... Why do you blame me for this? ”

The muttering was heard clearly by Shaw.

She crossed her waist and roared at Lu Tongren, who was still trying to move above her head:

"Do you dare to blame Heng'er?!"

"If he hadn't supported it, your old bones would have been broken a long time ago!"

"Can't get down? Don't come down, the old lady will do it! ”

Lu Tongren was scolded, and he didn't take advantage of it, so he could only climb down the ladder in disgrace.

Beside.

Since the crossing, Lu Heng, who has always felt that his mother is gentle and loving, is almost shocked when he sees this scene.

He really didn't expect that his mother, who was gentle and gentle to him, would actually have a time when the Hedong lion roared.

And the man who yelled so much that Daddy shrank his neck and shook his hands, there was no room for refutation at all!

Lu Heng was stunned and helped Lu Tongren down the ladder.

He was also a little cowardly at this time:

"This ...... This lantern, or I'll hang it. ”

Xiao Shi had a cold face and also glared at his son:

"Your dad almost fell off just now, and you're going to hang up?"

"If there is anything bad, our family will not spend this year!"

"Go back to the house! It doesn't matter if this lantern is not hung! ”

With that, Xiao Shi turned around and went back to the house, ignoring the father and son who were looking at each other outside.

Half an hour later.

Lu Heng asked in a low voice:

"Dad, my memory hasn't fully recovered...... Mother, did she do this before? ”

Lu Tongren didn't have a good airway:

"Which one? Tigress? ”

Lu Heng shook his head and flew up:

"You can eat food indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense!"

"When did I say that my mother is a tigress? It's just you who thinks so! ”

The two of them were bickering, unwilling to admit that they were afraid of the angry Xiao family.

But after a while, the two still followed into the house very tacitly.

There is no charcoal pot in the house, but it is still warm as spring.

After finishing the incident on the outskirts of Beijing, seeing that it was already winter, Lu Heng hurriedly asked people to build a fire kang on several rooms in Lu's house.

At this moment, Xiao Shi was sitting cross-legged on the kang, and there was a table in front of him, and some small snacks were placed on it.

Lu Heng and Lu Tongren glanced at each other.

Looks like he's still angry.

After coughing lightly, Lu Heng walked over.

He smiled and said:

"Mother, I came back this time to tell you good news, don't you plan to hear it?"

Xiao Shi held back the fire in his belly and said coldly:

"I thought you were coming back for the New Year. If there is any good news, hurry up and say it, and sell less! ”

She found out that since her son was hit with a stick on the head a few months ago, people are not stupid, but other problems have not changed.

Especially with this temper, they are worried at home every day when they are fathers and mothers, for fear that Lu Heng will cause trouble in Chang'an again.

Although the Lu family already has a knighthood, this bit of official title is nothing if it is thrown into Chang'an City!

"I'm going to get married, isn't that a good thing?"

Lu Heng smiled and said:

"It's still a marriage given by His Majesty himself, and after the New Year, you will be able to receive the holy decree!"

Almost at the same time.

Xiao Shi, who was originally sulking, and Lu Tongren, who was scolded and picking his fingers beside him, all turned their heads to look at Lu Heng!

Lu Tongren was the first to react.

He stepped forward, grabbed his son's hand, and said nervously:

"When Your Majesty gave you the marriage, you didn't talk nonsense, did you?"

"But don't talk about free love like when you were in the Lu Guogong Mansion before...... Lu Guogong loves you, but if you say this in front of His Majesty, you will be beheaded! ”

He was really scared by Lu Heng.

This dead child, who can't talk more than his brain every day, offends people to death at some point!

As a result, Lu Heng smiled and said:

"How could I possibly refuse?"

"I asked for this marriage myself, and His Majesty's marriage is just a name."

"The girl I want to marry is the girl I like!"

Xiao finally recovered from the shock of his son's enlightenment.

She sat up straight on the kang and dragged Lu Heng to sit down together.

"Come, tell my mother, whose girl is it?"

Lu Heng grinned at his mother.

"It's the girl I brought to the house last time and asked her to go see the potatoes together!"

Xiao Shi had already guessed in her heart, but when she heard this, she still let out a long breath.

Sure enough, it was the girl.

My son has a chance to marry the princess home!

Lu Tongren, who didn't know anything, was about to die when he heard their mother and son play dumb riddles.

"Who's the girl? Tell me about it! ”
