However, the expansion of the Han Dynasty has also come to an end, one is that if the expansion is renewed, it will be bordered by other major forces, and the risk is too great.

The other is that the newly opened territory is still internally unstable, and it will be difficult to completely stabilize it in a few years.

Since ancient times, emperors have used the art of scheming, and the lord of the Han Dynasty is no exception.

With his tacit impetus and the conflict of interests of all parties, the current Han has basically formed two major forces.

One is the general headed by Liu Xiu, and most of them are military generals.

The other is the prime minister headed by Sima Huai, and most of them are civil officials.

Although the two factions have not reached the same momentum, they have also been-for-tat, slandering and quarreling in the court many times.

This is also a scene that the lord of the Han Dynasty is happy to see, the emperor is the most balanced, and a good balance is maintained between the two major forces at present.

The lord of the Han Dynasty only needs to sit firmly in the Diaoyutai behind the scenes, which force is weak to help, which force is strong and suppressed, and then he can stabilize the royal power.

The lord of the Han Dynasty has two daughters and a son, and the two daughters are the two princesses who are promised to the Qin family and the He family.

One son is the current Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but he is still young, only thirteen years old.

The lord of the Han Dynasty used the means of marriage perfectly, but unfortunately he only had two daughters.

Lu Yun even doubted that if the lord of the Han Dynasty had many daughters, would they all be used for marriage.

It is reported that the reason why Princess Yue married their Lu family was that the Great Han Kingdom mainly suppressed the King of Qiuyang.

Originally, it was Liu Yu, the daughter of the King of Qiuyang, who was going to marry, but the King of Qiuyang strongly objected, so he lowered the grade, and named Liu Yue, the adopted daughter of the King of Qiuyang, as the princess and married the Lu family.

Lu Yun didn't care whether the lord of the Great Han Dynasty had the heart to humiliate their Lu family, but since he had been humiliated, he had to keep it in his heart.

If you can't even do this, won't you even lose your dignity as a human being?

When he has the opportunity in the future, he must return it so that the lord of the Han Dynasty can also taste the taste of humiliation.

In the following time, Lu Yun fell silent, and he didn't take Liu Yue's bet to heart.

After all, this is a losing situation, and he doesn't want to marry any princess, it's not the freedom he wants.

He practiced the art of flying knives every day and absorbed spiritual energy through breathing.

Soon another half a month passed, and Lu Yun was pleasantly surprised to find that his body had become a lot stronger, much stronger than before.

This is a good sign, Reiki really strengthens the body, and the effect is excellent.

If according to the realm that Chen Lao said, he should have entered the product by now, but he doesn't know how many products it is.

The Lu family is good at flying knives and hidden weapons, but the Lu family is by no means limited to flying knives, the children of the Lu family have to practice some general martial arts moves.

Otherwise, once you fight with someone, the four flying knives will be gone after a while, so the Lu family's flying knives are basically used in key places.

In the past, Lu Yun was weak, and he didn't have enough strength to practice these martial arts moves.

Now that there are conditions, it is natural to practice it, and it is too limited to rely not only on flying knives.

Just like the danger last time, once the throwing knives are used up, the game is over.

Next, Lu Yun also began to practice martial arts moves with Chen Lao and Lu Qiao'er.

Just as he was in high spirits to practice, an official found a place to live.

"Today evening, the Great Han Kingdom will mainly feast all the princes in the palace, and ask the princes of the Lu family to attend on time!"

Lu Yun's eyes froze, the Great Han Kingdom mainly feasted the prince, which was both reasonable and a little unexpected.

It is reasonable to say that it has been a while since these sons of the world came to Luoyang, and the Great Han Kingdom will also express their affection and courtesy.

said unexpectedly, I didn't expect that it was the Lord of the Great Han Kingdom who personally arranged this matter and had to feast on them.

As the prince of the world, the status is a little embarrassing, and the Great Han Kingdom mainly invites them, no matter how you look at it, there is no good banquet.

However, no one dared not participate, after all, the lord of the country invited the banquet, if he did not go, he would annoy the lord of the country, although it would not be a big crime, but he would inevitably be remembered by the lord of the country.

Approaching the evening, Lu Yun simply packed up, took the invitation, and walked to the palace, which was the first time he went to the palace of the Han Dynasty.

On the way, Lu Yun also took a good look at the situation in Luoyang, which was indeed relatively prosperous.

Now the lights are on, and there are lights hanging everywhere, illuminating the main street slightly.

When he was about to arrive at the palace, Lu Yun saw several galloping carriages passing by, all of whom should have been people who were going to attend the palace banquet.

When he arrived at the gate of the palace, Lu Yun saw that there were carriages and horses parked on both sides, and there were servants taking care of them, also waiting for his son.

Compared to the others, Lu Yun looked much shabby, and he was the only one who came on foot.

When he arrived at the door, two guards stopped Lu Yun: "The palace is important, you are not allowed to enter without being summoned!"

Lu Yun took out the invitation: "I am the son of the Lu family, and I came to attend the banquet of the prince."

A guard looked at the invitation card, and searched Lu Yun's body: "Shizi, please!"

Lu Yun walked into the palace and found that this place was really magnificent, and it was not at all comparable to his father's mansion in Lu Yangcheng.

The banquet was held in the middle hall, and more than a dozen small tables were already placed in the hall, and wine, vegetables and fruits were placed on each table.

Seven or eight men were gathering to talk, and they all seemed to know each other, but Lu Yun didn't know any of them.

Lu Yun ignored these people, he went directly to the desk by the door and sat down, quietly waiting for the banquet to begin.

Everyone may be tired, and when they saw Lu Yun sitting down, they all followed to find a place to sit down, but they were all in the back position, and there was almost no one sitting in the front few cases.

On the desk next to Lu Yun, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy sat down.

He saw Lu Yun alone, and whispered: "Qin Jiong, the son of the Xia Qin family, I don't know what Brother Tai is called?"

Lu Yun was stunned, the young man turned out to be the son of the Qin family, who went to Luoyang on the same day as him, but treated people who were inferior to heaven and earth.

He clenched his fists: "Fortunately, fortunately!" In the lower Lu family, the son of Lu Yun. ”

Qin Jiong was surprised: "It turns out that Brother Tai is the legendary son of the Lu family."

Lu Yun was puzzled, what is the legendary son of the Lu family?

"What does Brother Qin mean by this?"

Qin Jiong sighed: "The name of Brother Tai is a legend to us, so that we can only envy you and regard you as a model."

Lu Yun was puzzled, wasn't it bad enough for the same son to live by himself? How can there still be people who envy themselves.

"Alas, brother Tai doesn't know, I can't help but wait for the prince, saying that I live in the prince's mansion, but if I want to leave once, it will take a lot of trouble, just like a bird in a cage, yearning for freedom!"

Qin Jiong sighed.

Lu Yun was dumbfounded, it was easy to enter and difficult to get out of the prince's mansion, this was really quite miserable, no wonder there had been no news of these princes.

Qin Jiong said again: "Brother Tai is still free, live outside, and go wherever you want."

Lu Yun suddenly felt that these sons were very pitiful, although he was a little bitter outside, he relied on himself for everything, and now it seemed that he was much better than other sons.

He didn't dwell on this topic: "Brother Qin, how many princes are there in the Prince's Mansion?"

Qin Jiong pointed to the seven or eight people seated: "These are the princes who live in the Shizi Mansion, a total of eight."

Lu Yun was surprised that there were so many sons.

"How can there be so many, aren't there just the three of us?"

Qin Jiong shook his head: "The three of us have just been married, and the other sons have either been married, or they are still young, but they are all sons of various cities."

So that's the case, Qin Jiong whispered again: "It's also an honor to be given a marriage, we insist on it, and we can move out of the Shizifu after we get married."

"They are the most pitiful, if there is no accident, I am afraid that they will have to stay in the Shizi Mansion for the rest of their lives." Qin Jiong's eyes couldn't bear it.
