In the past, when Lu Dewen did not break with Duan Shu, of course, he was also qualified to participate in the palace banquet, but later the husband and wife broke up, and they were strangers, and with Lu Dewen's rank, he was not eligible to participate in the palace banquet.

Although Lu Dewen regretted it in his heart and wanted to repair the relationship between husband and wife, he had both concubines and aunts, and Duan Shu refused to forgive him.

If it weren't for Lu Wei's success over the years, the Lu family would have declined long ago.

Lu Wei has not returned to Beijing for several years, and as soon as he came back, he was busy with the imperial court supervising the beheading of the traitorous king and thieves in Jiangxia, and it was not until this time that he blocked Lu Wei who came back from the palace.

Seeing the father at the door, Lu Wei's face was not very good-looking, but he still got out of the car respectfully and saluted.

Lu Dewen looked at Lu Wei, who was dressed in a purple luxurious official robe, said a few words, and asked about his concubines who went to Liangzhou to join his brother-in-law.

"All in the barracks, everything is fine." Lu Wei said briefly.

What did Lu Dewen want to hear, and immediately asked, "How many products are they?" It's been so long, it's time to upgrade the original grade, right? ”

Lu Wei felt a burst of anger in his heart for no reason, and asked Zhang Yuqing to get out of the carriage and go back to Fansi Academy first, so as not to see him and Lu Dewen clash.

Lu Dewen also thought that Lu Wei had given his younger brothers a lot of official positions, which made Zhang Yuqing unhappy, so he avoided Zhang Yuqing and said happily: "My father's heart for you is the same, and I look forward to your success!" You are out, should you take a good look at your younger brothers, they all say that they are brothers in war, fathers and sons in battle, and your own brothers are not much more reliable than outsiders? ”

"I don't have a brother, I only have a sister who was killed by you." Lu Wei said coldly, "Your four sons are now the big soldiers in the barracks, and they have no rank or rank!" ”

Lu Dewen was stunned and couldn't believe it, "What are you kidding?" You are a dignified two-grade system! ”

The younger brother of the second-grade system carries a gun as a big soldier like that group of mud legs? Who will believe it!

"If you feel distressed, you can find someone to pick them up from Liangzhou." Lu Wei said.

Lu Wei's face was very cold, but not as cold as his heart.

If he was still the young man who had just arrived in Baochuan and was almost in a desperate and embattled situation, he would probably be angry when he saw his biological father behaving like this, and would ask Lu Dewen if he was Lu Dewen's biological flesh and blood.

His second-grade control system was earned back by blood and sweat, and he was won by his head on the belt of his trousers, if it wasn't for Zhang Yuqing to help him, he might have turned into a dead soul under the Hu Ren's knife!

Why did Lu Dewen ask those cousins if they had been promoted and made a fortune as soon as they met? Why doesn't Lu Dewen know how hard it is for him?

Zhang Yuqing once said that some people are born with shallow parents and can't force them.

He has long passed the most difficult period, and he is not the teenager who wants to be cared for by his father. As if his father is shallow in this life, it is not a terrible thing anyway, he still has a mother who loves him, a wife who loves him, and lovely children.

He already has so much more important than the missing father's love.

Lu Dewen's hypocritical care was nothing to him.

"What's the catch? Didn't I tell you to give them an official position? Lu Dewen was furious, "You arranged for them to be the big soldiers?" You did it on purpose, didn't you? ”

Lu Wei nodded dryly, "That's right!" Save your energy, I can't give them an official position!" ”

One of the four cousins is lower than the other, and he is not a charity, how can he destroy the fair rules that he and Zhang Yuqing worked hard to manage in Liangzhou because of the four cousins.

"You rebel!" Lu Dewen was furious, jumped to his feet and scolded, "Crazy thing! Hugh thought that if he got power, he would not be able to take his pro-Lao Tzu seriously! I'll go to you tomorrow! I'm going to sue you for being unfilial, and I'm going to let everyone in the world know what you are! ”

What responded to him was a basin of vegetable washing water, which was poured on Lu Dewen's head, and the vegetable leaves hung wet on Lu Dewen's bun, which was extremely ridiculous.

The maid carried a broken wooden basin and said timidly: "Oh, the master spares his life!" It was so dark that I didn't see anyone at the door! ”

Lu Dewen almost didn't get blown up by the air, God didn't see anyone, he and Lu Wei quarreled with the sky, how could he not see people, this maid did it on purpose!

It's clearly the order of Zhang's tricky country mud legs! The Lu family is unfortunate and married such a bad woman!

"Master, look at your dirty water, why don't you go back and wash it first? Change into clean clothes and come to our young master to quarrel again? The maid suggested intimately.

Lu Dewen held a vegetable leaf on his head, turned around angrily and left.

Lu Wei strode into the courtyard, and a fire burned in his heart, burning his reason.

He was diligent and motivated when he was young, and he did many good deeds when he went out to practice, and when he grew up, he loved the people, and he didn't dare to say how wise a commander he was, at least he could be called benevolent and righteous, why did he have such a father!

Zhang Yuqing stood in the courtyard with a lantern and waited for him, standing there pretty, looking at him with a smile.

Lu Wei's footsteps slowed down, and the fire that had nowhere to be placed seemed to disappear all at once, as if he only needed to look at Zhang Yuqing to feel comfortable, and his heart softened unconsciously.

"Go, set up a table in the yard, burn charcoal and support pots, we Lord Lu haven't eaten tonight, and I'm hungry!" Zhang Yuqing said with a smile, "Everything in the kitchen is cut and arranged, tofu, meatballs, and ham are all prepared, Lord Lu loves to eat!" There is also sesame paste, put some honey when mixing it to hide the astringency! In addition, let the cook roll the noodles, and wait until it will go down to the pot, and the rolling strength will be stronger, and the soft noodles Lu adults don't like to eat! ”

Lu Wei couldn't help but laugh and took Zhang Yuqing into his arms.

How could he not see it, Zhang Yuqing was distressed that he was angry with Lu Dewen, hurting him and coaxing him!

"When you eat a little more, people are hungry and they are easy to get angry, and anger hurts the body." Zhang Yuqing stroked Lu Wei's chest and gave him relief.

The two of them worked hard at the palace banquet, even if the dishes at the palace banquet were delicacies from the mountains and seas, the two of them didn't move their chopsticks, and they were hungry until this time.

Lu Wei's heart was warm, his eyes were hot, but he was still hard-mouthed, "I'm not angry, what's there to be angry about!" ”

Others only know that he is the ruthless and iron-blooded Liangzhou ruler, and the Hu people who killed him fled in despair, but they don't know that he is just an ordinary person with flesh and blood, and he will be sad and angry, and he also needs people to love and coax him to follow.

"If you're not angry, you have to eat something to cushion your stomach! If you are hungry and thin, when you return to Liangzhou, Lu Zhao and Lu Xiao will feel sorry for their father! Zhang Yuqing said with a smile.

The hot pot in the courtyard was propped up, the fragrant bone broth was steaming, and the small table was full of all kinds of food.

Zhang Yuqing pulled him to the table and sat down, handed him the dishes and chopsticks, and scooped up chopsticks and ribs for him.

Steaming hot food quickly soothes the hard work and heartache of the day.

Through the steaming heat, Lu Wei looked at Zhang Yuqing, who was smiling and serving food in the pot.

Why is it so strange?

Lu Wei couldn't understand it, others always told him that only newlyweds were sweet and sticky, and he should be tired of each other after a few years, but he didn't, the more he looked at Zhang Yuqing, the more he liked it, and the more he loved it.

Such a beautiful and intelligent woman is his, he is alone, how can he be bored with Zhang Yuqing?

He was even grateful now for the bitterness of identifying the daughter of the phoenix.

If there is no bitterness, even if he divorces Zhang Yuying, Zhang Yuqing will not marry him, how can he have the blessing to have such a lover.

"Eat! What are you doing in a daze? Zhang Yuqing scooped up a bowl of noodles for him, mixed with crushed garlic peanuts and sesame paste, and made a bowl of simple and refreshing cold noodles.

The two were eating supper, and Lu Wei didn't want to think about his bad father anymore, so he talked about today's palace banquet.

Jin Yongxiu pinched the tip to be strong, he was determined to get ahead, his ambition was clearly written on his face, Emperor Anping painted a big cake for him to fool him, but he was afraid that Jin Yongxiu would not be able to bear it.

"He now has more than 200,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, plus the Praetorian Guards that were transferred to him before, he can make up 500,000." Zhang Yuqing said.

It's just that the army is very slow, and it consumes a lot of food and grass, so the soldiers under Jin Yongxiu are still in Jingzhou. But if Jin Yongxiu makes up his mind to oppose it, it is not without conditions.

Lu Wei said: "Let's wait for two days and see, the emperor is very likely to give him something to appease him in private." ”

The rebellion is not a reversal with a slap on the head, after all, if it fails, it will be like the king of Jiangxia, and he will be happy to mention the whole clan.

These courtiers are not the same as vassal kings, as long as they are not driven to a dead end, they will not want to be a chaotic minister and thief who "leaves a name in history".

However, if he wants to appease Jin Yongxiu, whose appetite has been raised, he is afraid that Emperor Anping will have to come up with quite heavy conditions. After so many years of war, the Great Xia Dynasty has long been riddled with holes and fragile.

Emperor Anping didn't even want to give Jin Yongxiu the false name of a generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, for fear that Jin Yongxiu would have too much power, and what could he come up with to attract Jin Yongxiu?

At night, Lu Wei flipped through the letters sent from Liangzhou under the lamp.

Zhang Yuqing suddenly said: "The emperor looks like that, do you see it?" ”

Lu Wei raised his head and thought of Emperor Anping at the palace banquet, his emaciated and swaying body, his face covered with white powder, and he lived like a ghost.

"See." Lu Wei closed the letter, Emperor Anping liked Wushisan and pills, and everyone inside and outside the palace knew that after smoking Wushisan or taking pills, he was in high spirits, and he had to kill people to see blood before he was comfortable.

Pills have erysipelas, and if you eat too much, your body will ulcerate. Emperor Anping must have rotten on his face, so he applied such a thick powder to cover up.

"Is he dying?" Zhang Yuqing leaned on the bedpost and muttered.

Lu Wei was stunned, got up and walked to Zhang Yuqing, sat next to her, held her hand and asked, "What are you worried about?" But are you worried that the world will be in chaos after the death of Emperor Anping? ”

"Do you think it will?" Zhang Yuqing asked rhetorically.

Lu Wei groaned: "There must be someone who will rebel, and I can't say who it is." ”

It's up to you to take it first.

"Why did you suddenly become less daring?" Lu Wei kissed her cheek and smiled, "Who was the person who stood on the city wall with a knife back then, and wanted to die with the Hu people?" ”

He felt that Zhang Yuqing was worried that the world would be chaotic, mostly because he was worried about his children, they were now fathers and mothers, and naturally wanted their children to live in a peaceful and prosperous world, rather than in a chaotic world.

"Don't be afraid." Lu Wei hugged her and coaxed, "I can protect you and the children!" ”

Zhang Yuqing didn't seem to hear Lu Wei's words, and said: "Emperor Anping is dead, is Zhang Yuying's son about to become the emperor?" ”

Lu Wei nodded, "The emperor only has a concubine from the middle palace, and if there is no accident, the queen's son will ascend the throne." ”

"Her son is on the throne, isn't she the queen mother?" Zhang Yuqing looked at Lu Wei, "Can the Queen Mother of Great Xia remarry?" ”

Lu Wei smiled, "The Queen Mother is the emperor's mother, how can she remarry!" Where does the emperor's face go? Unless ......"

"Unless what?" Zhang Yuqing asked.

Lu Wei wanted to say that unless the queen mother remarried, the benefits it could bring could far offset the loss of face caused to the emperor.

The people of Daxia pay attention to chastity, while the Hu people on the grassland do not have so many etiquette rules. If the emperor in the prime of life dies suddenly, leaving a minor son to ascend the throne, the queen mother may find the most powerful man to marry, so that the little emperor will recognize his stepfather as the middle father, form a stable power relationship, and protect the status of the little emperor.

But there has never been such a precedent in Great Xia, Emperor Anping is not dead, and it is impossible for Zhang Yuying to marry again.

"Nothing." Lu Wei said, "Unless she doesn't want to be the queen mother." ”

Zhang Yuqing chuckled, "If you want me to say, it's easy to get priceless treasures, and it's rare to have a lover." If you can get a lover, the queen mother's throne is nothing unusual. ”

Lu Wei hugged her and smiled.

Zhang Yuqing was already holding back the anger in her heart, and she was even more angry when she heard him laugh, and asked unhappily, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Lu Wei said: "She's not you, how can you use your thoughts to speculate about her?" For her, no lover or ruthless man is not as important as glory and wealth. How is it possible for you to ask her to give up the honor of the queen mother to get married? ”

"If she becomes the queen mother, she will look at me unpleasantly and trouble me ......," Zhang Yuqing said.

Lu Wei kissed her and didn't let her say any more, "She dares!" I slaughtered her with a knife! ”

Good spring night, what do those people who are unhappy do! Isn't it good to do something that couples love to do?

Zhang Yuqing originally thought that after experiencing the palace banquet tonight, with Jin Yongxiu's temper, even if he didn't directly reverse, he would have to do something to make Emperor Anping peel off his skin.

After the palace banquet, the wind and waves were calm for a few days, just like Jin Yongxiu had not been fooled by Emperor Anping at all.

Until the emperor suddenly talked about taxes in the court, and scolded the bureaucrats of the household department and the official department, saying that the officials of the two ministries have been eating dry food all these years, and they have not been able to collect enough taxes every year.

The lack of taxes and silver led to a shortage of military spending, and the war with the Jiangxia rebels dragged on for several years before a winner was decided, and even the mausoleum of the first emperor was now in an unfinished state, not to mention his own. Emperor Anping scolded to the point of emotion, almost crying, feeling that he was sorry for his relatives, and if he lost his ancestors, he would be even more sorry for his ancestors.

The officials of the household department and the officials blew up, so naturally they couldn't admit such a big crime, and if they did, they would be the number one traitor in Great Xia.

Most people are like mirrors in their hearts, the emperor is in a hurry to make a windfall to repair the mausoleum, what wait to collect the next year's taxes!

This is a sound attack, and I want to find a big boss to pay for it!
