Wuwei Hou Mansion.

There is an endless stream of guests coming and going.

In Jinling City, the major princely mansions have sent people to the Wuwei Marquis Mansion to celebrate.

Most of the people in the imperial city did not expect that the young Marquis Wu Wei was so brave in the battlefield expedition, and the Western Frontier Army penetrated the military town in the south of Dayu all the way, so that everyone in the court had a deeper understanding of Marquis Lu.

Being young doesn't mean you don't have strength.

The old foxes in Jinling City couldn't help but sigh.

The Marquis of Wuwei Mansion is scarce, and only Lu Ze has a hereditary title, but its growth rate on the border is too appalling.

Since his attack on the lord to the present, it has been less than five years, and the lintel of the Marquis of Wuwei Mansion has signs that it is difficult to suppress, and many people have vaguely guessed that this Marquis Lu may go further before the age of twenty.

Crowned king.

And it is still a king with a different surname other than the surname Xiao of the royal family.

This is the highest glory that the world's military generals dream of.

Time rewinds back to a year ago, at the point in time when Lu Ze returned to Jinling City, I am afraid no one could have imagined that a year later, Wuwei Hou Lu Ze topped the list of Langya masters, and led the Western Army to break through the gate of Dayu.

The world was shocked.

Lu Ze's handwriting like wind and thunder successfully made the eyes of all countries in the world converge on Daliang.

"Brother-in-law."

"I really should have gone to the Westside with you last time!"

In the Beijing Mansion of King Mu, Mu Qing beat his chest and shouted pity.

The 100,000 iron cavalry of the Mu Wangfu in the south most of the time played the role of deterring Southern Chu, and there was no large-scale war in the past ten years.

Nihuang may have also seen this, and wanted to let Mu Qing go to the west to have a real experience with Lu Ze.

Mu Qing really took Yu Wenxuan's cynicism at him to heart, Lu Ze had just studied Mu Qing's several questions about governing his vassals, and the latter's answers were reasonable, and it could be seen that he was really studying during this time in Jinling City.

Lu Ze smiled: "There will always be a battle." ”

When Mu Qing heard this, he instantly heard what Lu Ze meant, and he said suspiciously: "Brother-in-law, what do you mean, can't you fight now?" ”

Lu Ze nodded: "Now we can only fight to Hanchen Pass, first, the military strength of the Western Frontier Army is limited, and if we continue to fight with the current strength, it will only be beyond the reach of the whip, even if we go all the way north to fight a few military towns and occupy a few cities, it is not cost-effective, and it will not be worth it." The second is that the consumption of military supply is very large, and the military dispatch piece cannot withstand it just by relying on the supply of the seven states in the west. ”

Mu Qing suddenly lowered his voice and whispered, "The third is that I am worried that Your Majesty will be suspicious. ”

Lu Ze smiled dumbly.

Mu Qing has experienced a lot of things since he came to Jinling City from Yunnan, and he doesn't seem to have much good impression of His Majesty the Emperor in the palace.

I only heard Mu Qing continue: "Brother-in-law, I heard Wei Xima say that he guessed that His Majesty may... Seal the king with a different surname? ”

Little Lord Mu's eyes were full of amazement.

The foundation of Yunnan Mu Wangfu was created by the ancestors of the Mu family in the early days of the Liang Dynasty, he and his sister are the people who guard the house in the end, but in front of Lu Ze is the person who opened the foundation, the marquis and the prince, only one word apart, but it is a world of different meanings.

Lu Ze told the truth: "Your Majesty hinted at me in private. ”

"The fiefdom is most likely the land of the Seven States in the West."

Now, it was Mu Qing's turn to be puzzled.

"Ahem."

"Your Majesty... Do you trust you so much? ”

......

"Of course Your Majesty doesn't trust Marquis Lu."

Su House.

Mei Changsu, His Royal Highness King Jing and Commander Meng Da are discussing the possibility of landing Lu Ze as king.

The sneer on the corner of Jiang Zuo Meilang's mouth was fleeting.

"The seven states in the west are barren lands, and the taxes of the Great Liang in the west are the lowest, not without reason, it is already the limit to supply hundreds of thousands of troops to the land of the seven states in the west, and the land of the vassals, according to the law of the Great Liang, needs the autonomy of the royal government."

"But it's hard for a good woman to cook without rice."

"If the Western Frontier Army wants to further exaggerate the results on the battlefield, it can only rely on the imperial court."

"The king with a different surname in the west who is suppressed by the imperial court in all aspects, what kind of king with a different surname is it?"

Mei Changsu saw it very thoroughly.

He continued: "And the most important thing is that Lu Hou is not married now, there are no heirs, although the Wuwei Hou Mansion is luxurious, but as long as Lu Hou himself has some accidents, all the problems... It's all going to be solved. ”

King Jing did not refute Mei Changsu's malicious speculation about his father in his words.

After Xie Yu fell, the master and the two of them talked about the old case thirteen years ago, the father and the emperor were so ruthless that their own son could wield the butcher's knife, how could they trust Lu Hou, who now seems to be a saint?

Meng Zhi suddenly said at this time: "Then what if the land of the seven states in the west can support the male army?" ”

Mei Changsu and King Jing glanced at each other, and both of them had smiles on their faces.

Mei Changsu grew up in Kyoto since he was a child, but in fact, the foundation of the Red Flame Army is precisely in the western realm, and the 70,000 Red Flame elite is already the largest force that can be supported in the western realm.

Besides, how can the power of mortals change the barren roots of the West?

Seeing the two of them with such looks, Meng Zhi scratched his head in disdain: "I just think that Lu Hou is very ambitious, he must be thinking of hitting the court of the Dayu King, can a single name with a different surname really restrain him?" ”

The Grand Commander woke up with a word.

Mei Changsu muttered to himself: "Yes." ”

If Jing Yan sits in that position in the future, will he be able to suppress Wu Weihou?

......

The sky is high and crisp, and the sun is warm but not dazzling.

Yuhu Town is one of the most common towns around Jinling.

It is said to be a small town, and the number of people is not much different from the number of people in ordinary villages, and the number of residents is only about 200 households.

There is only one main street in the town, and there are some tofu shops, snack bars, grocery stores and other shops on the street.

Early in the morning of this day, a cyan carriage slowly drove into the town.

A veiled woman came out of the carriage, and the woman stepped into the snack bar at the end of the main street, and said lightly to the busy shopkeeper inside: "Where is the fourth sister?" ”

The shopkeeper's face changed slightly, and after a few whispers to the customer, he led her to the backyard.

The backyard is separated from the front hall by a low mud wall, which feels very different, not only is it not the slightest tattered and dirty, but it is exceptionally clean and comfortable. Two tall red pomegranates are planted in the center, and the heavy fruits are already hanging among the green leaves.

The female sat down on the stone bench, the veil on her face removed, revealing a charming but slightly tired face.

It is a Qin girl with red sleeves.

After a while, a woman came out of the east wing, and when Qin Banruo saw it, he got up directly and saluted: "Fourth sister." ”

The fourth sister in Qin Panruo's mouth, with a young face, fair skin, and delicate eyebrows, although it is an ordinary jinghai cloth skirt, she still can't hide her grace, such a stunning beauty, but for some reason she lives in seclusion in this quiet town.

"I haven't seen her for a few years, but the fourth sister has grown a lot."

"It seems that the idle life in this town is very comfortable, unlike me, and I have to intrigue in Jinling City, where the undercurrent is surging, so that when I look at the bronze mirror in the morning, I feel that I am hateful."

Qin Panruo's tone was flat.

But the meaning of the complaint in the words is clear.

The fourth sister's eyelashes drooped, and her small chin was slightly closed, if the man saw it, she couldn't help but feel pity, she sighed lightly: "Prany, it was the fourth sister who didn't say goodbye back then." It's just that the old man has passed away, and we people should have our own lives. ”

Qin Panruo's beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, but then he smiled, and his tone was still very stable: "Where is the fourth sister talking about, the great cause of recovering the country has not been completed, the humiliation of the country has not been washed, there is no country and no home, my Hua people have no country, how can they come to a small family?" ”

After saying that, Qin Banruo's tone changed, and his face was filled with a look of weakness.

"Fourth sister."

"Do you know I can't hold on anymore?"

During this time, the eyeliner of the red sleeve move in Jinling City was completely damaged, the old man died or rebelled, and those newcomers Qin Banruo did not dare to use it, and even the trust on the side of King Yu was not as good as before.

But today, Qin Banruo came to Yuhu Town to find the fourth sister because of another thing.

"My red-sleeved tricks in the capital can barely function."

"What is really tricky is the intelligence that came from Ganzhou last night."

"The sisters of our Slippery Clan who were dormant in the west back then suddenly cut off contact some time ago, as if they were directly cut off by someone with a knife, Fourth Sister, do you know what this means?

The fourth sister jumped and lost her voice: "How come!" ”

At that time, the slippery people struggled to survive in the encirclement of various countries, first attached to Daliang, and then rebelled to Dayu, using all means, but it was difficult to survive, and finally was caught by Daliang and rebelled, and the country was destroyed.

But there are still scattered people who have survived.

For example, the Gong Yu girl in the Miaoyin Workshop actually carries the blood of the Slippery Clan.

Most of these surviving people of the Slippery Tribes have become incognito.

The most people, of course, are on the western side of Chongqing.

Princess Xuanji of the Slippery Clan, a stunning genius, treacherous and calculating.

In the case of the destruction of the Hua clan at that time, a group of tinder was still retained, and these people were directly arranged in the western border of Daliang, and Princess Xuanji's arrangement of 'the most dangerous place is the safest place' successfully made this group of people survive under the noses of the Red Flame Army.

Qin Panruo: These people are the bright line of revenge.

And those talents are the spark for the restoration of the country.

Qin Panruo's words were earnest, which made the fourth sister also a little moved, and the latter sighed and persuaded: "Praruo, the western border is far away from Jinling, you and I can't reach it, how can we help those people?" ”

Qin Panruo's face was like frost, and he said coldly: "Fourth sister, is it for me to ignore the life and death of the people of the Hua clan?" ”

"I have helped King Yu all these years, thinking about letting King Yu bring down the prince, and continuing the old strategy of the master to provoke the brothers to extinguish the red flames, but the results are not as good as the master and her old man."

"Now, I see a better opportunity."

"It doesn't matter if there is no hope of recovering the country, let Daliang also taste the taste of the lost country, and you can also comfort the master's spirit in the sky."

The fourth sister said in a low voice: "What a chance." ”

Qin Panruo spit out lightly: "Marquis Wuwei, Lu Ze." ”

When the fourth sister heard this, she covered her mouth and exclaimed.

Even the children and old people in this town have heard of the name of Wuweihou, and Dayu Xuanbu died at the hands of Wuweihou.

"Prajna, you mean... The changes in the western border are the handiwork of that Lu Hou? ”

"Eight or nine is not far from ten."

The fourth sister said cautiously: "What do you want me to do?" ”

Qin Panruo raised his eyebrows with joy, and bowed as a courtesy: "Praruo wants to invite the fourth sister to come out and attack this Wuwei Hou." ”

The fourth sister frowned: "Praruo, I heard that Wuwei Hou has an intimate relationship with the Nihuang County Lord. Moreover, how can such heroes be confused by beauty? ”

Qin Panruo shook his head.

Then he told the fourth sister in detail about how he got along with Lu Ze several times.

After listening to this, the fourth sister said in a low voice: "Since that Lu Hou has returned to Beijing and is interested in Praruo, why don't you push the boat with the water..."

Qin Panruo said angrily: "He doesn't give a name. ”

.......

Lu Ze's plan to return to the western frontier has been delayed.

Emperor Liang dealt with Xie Yu's case, and Xia Jiang, the head of the Hanging Mirror Division who returned from the East China Sea, entered the palace several times, which actually moved His Majesty the Emperor, and the sentence of Xie Yu was not established for a long time, but it had the meaning of going to exile.

Xie Yu's case went nowhere.

However, Emperor Liang's reward for Lu Ze was rewarded after two days of silence.

It's the same as those smart people in Jinling City guessed.

"Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: Wuwei Hou Lu Ze, Chun Hou, benevolence and filial piety, moral and honest, loyal and honest, loyal and heroic, repeatedly feathered, brave champion of the three armies, specially crowned King Wuwei, the land of the seven states of the city, and give hereditary reckless grace!"

Jinling City fell silent.

The heads of the mansions and the elderly ancestors in the backyard have set their sights on the Wuwei Hou Mansion.

Now it should be called Wuwei Palace.

Since the establishment of the Liang Dynasty, nearly four generations of kings, more than 100 years, there has never been a martial artist meritorious service and a king with a different surname, Emperor Liang's reward has caused an uproar in the entire court, countless emperors in the imperial history, and the ministers expressed their attitude.

But Emperor Liang tried his best to disagree.

even revealed rumors from the palace that in the future, Lu Ze and the Nihuang County Lord will preside over the wedding on the Yingfeng Tower.

The celebrant and the officials of the Ministry of Industry have gone to the Wuwei Hou Mansion to open up all the two houses around the Hou Mansion, which originally had a neighbor on the west side, and the latter was also a generation of nobles in Daliang, but at this time he took the initiative to choose to give up the place.

In the back house of the Hou Mansion, Liu Qiushuang only felt everything in front of her, as if she was in a dream.

did not have the ecstasy as imagined, but like an ordinary person who won a billionaire jackpot, there was uneasiness in his heart.

Ascending is easy to fall heavy.

Where is my son standing now... It's too high.

Lu Ze didn't have any more feelings.

Emperor Liang's hand is very large, but for Lu Ze, it is nothing more than that, but it will be more convenient for Lu Ze to act in the western realm later.

The newly promoted King Wuwei went to the banquet leisurely.
