Chapter 207: Determination

"Nonsense!"

In the light, Zhang Lihua stood up, she looked at her son behind the long case for a moment, her fingertips pinched the silk handkerchief, and her tone slowed down.

"The first emperor was mourned, although he didn't kill it himself, but after all, it has a relationship, if Your Majesty goes to him, then this court, how should Your Majesty give a speech to the courtiers below?"

"This..."

Chen Jing stared at the stack of approvals for the Dragon case, "How did my father and Mr. Lu have a grudge, can the queen mother know?"

"I don't know. Zhang Lihua over there hesitated, sat back in the chair, and looked away slightly.

"I don't know. Chen Jing took a breath, stood up with his hand on the table, and looked at his mother: "That day, I was still the prince living in the East Palace, and there was a demon entering the room at night, if it weren't for the jade pendant given by Mr. Lu, I would have been gone, what kind of grievances did my father and Mr. Lu have, I don't want to ask again at the moment, I just want to go to Qixia Mountain to invite him out of the mountain." ”

Zhang Lihua looked at her still a little naΓ―ve son with some embarrassment, and sighed: "But the death of my father has always been related to him, and now the new Sui Dynasty has been established in the north, and the soldiers and horses are about to go south, Jing'er, if you leave the capital, you may fall into the mouths of hundreds of officials." ”

"If my Chen Dynasty is gone, what are you afraid of?!"

The young emperor was also a little anxious, knocked on the table with his hand, and walked out of the dragon case: "Mother, it is because the soldiers and horses of the Northern Dynasty have not yet come south that I want to do this." ”

Bronze lamppost, the firelight swayed quietly in the human voice, Zhang Lihua and her son looked at each other for a moment, and brushed their faces aside.

"Go, go, my mother will ask your imperial uncle Chen Fu to take care of the situation in the capital, alas... If only your father had treated his courtiers so conscientiously...... Forget it, my mother won't talk about it, anyway, bring more guards with you when you travel, go early and return early. ”

The young emperor's dragon sleeves were swept away from side to side, and he bowed down to his mother opposite and performed a family salute.

"Mother, take care!"

"Jing'er too. ”

After some advice, Zhang Lihua left accompanied by the palace maid eunuch, preparing for the emperor Zhang Luo's trip, Chen Jing returned to the dragon case, put down his mind, and rubbed the Pisces jade pendant that was broken in half on the table.

"Mr. Lu......"

The next day, the sky was still in a state of blue and hazy, the side gate of the imperial city was quietly opened, and a team of dozens of horses rumbled through the palace roads and streets, and the south gate of the outer city received an order early to open the city gate and let the team go out of the city.

"Drive!"

In a loud shout, dozens of guards in civilian clothes escorted the young man in the middle to run along the official road, they are all extremely outstanding in martial arts in the palace, and they have prepared for the road cognition, which way to go to Hegu County and Fushui County from to Fushui County.

It's just that considering that the emperor is still young and his body can't withstand the toss, the guards who lead the team stop and rest every fifty miles, and twice in a row, Chen Jing gritted his teeth and insisted on resting for eighty miles.

"Time is of the essence, I can't waste time on the road!"

In such words, a group of dozens of people, the speed of horses is not slow, in the morning to hurry, at noon rest for an hour, and continue in the afternoon, until nightfall, only in the nearby villages, temples to spend the night, the original more than ten days of travel, seven days to the junction of Fushui County, from the city is only four or five miles.

In the afternoon, Chen Jing entered the county office, changed his clothes, received the errand who recognized the way, crossed the bustling long street, and rushed to Qixia Mountain with a whip.

Out of the county seat, between the surging and undulating vision, the winding mountains are glowing with golden colors, the official road is densely populated with vendors, horse-drawn carts and donkey carts come and go, between the fields on both sides, and when it comes to the harvest season, clusters of millet rice crops are put on the ground from the hands of the farmers, and children are barefoot in the ridges of the fields pinching mud, smiling and playing.

It's like a paradise, unaffected by the imminent war.

Straight down along this road, across a small river, behind several raised mountains, the fields of Lujia Village, because of the irrigation of the aura in the water, the crops were precocious, and they were harvested in advance into the barns.

Most of the women were at home tailoring clothes, taking care of the children, and sometimes shouting at the blind old man who had set up a stall on the other side of the dam.

"Wang is half blind, do you calculate when they will go down the mountain today? ”

The stout woman who bit off the needle and thread shouted to the little daughter-in-law, "How long has you been gone? ”

The little daughter-in-law's face was blushing when she was said, and the king who set up the stall was just sitting there smiling and groaning, and he liked to listen to the women in the village talking about meat here.

'In another day, I will go to apprenticeship, those three young men are so blessed, and when the old man comes up, light incense and worship... Let's talk about the incense first, and then talk about ......'

Behind him, a dirt path went in, and in the small courtyard of the fence, Lu Laoshi took out his strong donkey, and looked at the empty donkey shed, and his son's donkey head didn't know where to go, only the reins were hanging on the stake.

"Liangsheng, you are not afraid that the old donkey will run away, run around the mountains and be careful of being eaten by wolves in the mountains. ”

No one responded in the room over there, and Li Jinhua, who was sitting under the eaves, was tying Mingyue's hair and raised her face to look at her husband.

"Liangsheng and Taoist, and the fat monk went to the west mountain, not at home, hurry up and grind the beans, come back early, don't go around donkeys. ”

Lu Laoshi looked at the pink and tender little man in his wife's arms and sighed.

...... If only our Lu family also had such a child.

led the donkey out of the small courtyard, and in the house behind him, there was a soft creak, Yuwen Tuo glanced at the woman and Mingyue over there, touched his face, and inhaled with his aching teeth.

'Raising ghosts again... and worship monsters as masters, where does this Mr. Lu look like a master, take advantage of their absence. ’

On the way here before, such an idea is not nothing, but unfortunately the fat monk looked at it tightly, and he couldn't leave if he wanted to, but now the opportunity was just right, and he saw the woman over there concentrating on combing the child's hair, and opened the door generously and walked out.

He whispered, "I'll go around the village and breathe." ”

Over there, Li Jinhua won't stop him, but he still advises.

"Don't go up the mountain, there are many beasts in the mountains. ”

"Got it. ”

Yuwen Tuo nodded in response, walked out of the courtyard gate, released his clenched fists, and couldn't help but speed up his feet, bypassing the crowded dam, climbing over the fence, as if breaking free from the cage, quickly burrowing into the mountains and forests, preparing to go up the dirt road in front of him, and follow the road until he entered the city.

'What kind of master do you say, you can't even see my thoughts...... Go back to the north first, I don't know how many people are still in my Northern Zhou royal family. ’

In this kind of thought, he pushed aside a bush, and the young man's hands and feet also stopped, and his expression was suddenly stunned.

Ahead, an old donkey was gnawing on a bush, shaking a pair of long ears to look over.

Call...

On the donkey's head, a short figure clicked on a small cigarette stick, exhaled a puff of smoke, and slowly turned the toad's face.

"Do you want to leave after offending the old man?"

The toad's mouth opened and closed, and the smile he hooked was about to crack to the back of his head.
