The red sun on the horizon is sinking to the west, but the sweltering summer has not receded. The billowing heat wave comes with the smell of dampness. The mountains in the distance are beautiful and picturesque, and the scenery is full of beautiful scenery.
Seeing such a scene indicates that Dakang Capital is not far away! Compared with the desolate and vicissitudes of Beiyan in the north, Dakang's landscape is obviously rich and soft, and Lu Zheng has already smelled the taste of home.
However, the current Lu Zheng is different from before he was sent as an envoy. The story of Lu Zheng’s mission to Beiyan has undergone countless interpretations. Now the Manchu civil and military officials in Dakang know most of them. Content.
After nine deaths, Lu Zheng exchanged true peace for Dakang. His Majesty Su Xinghai, the prime minister, wrote a letter stating that after this time, the border between Dakang and Beiyan could guarantee ten years of well-being.
What benefits will the ten years of well-being bring to the people of the two countries? As the envoy of Lu Zheng this time, his contribution is huge. It is certain that after Lu Zheng returns to the capital this time, his majesty will definitely reward him again.
It is precisely because of this that the mission was required to set up camp outside the capital, and the court needed to arrange a grand ceremony to welcome the mission.
Compared to Lu Zheng's slightly depressed, Su Zhi was very excited, seeing that he was much older than Lu Zheng, but the whole person behaved like a child.
On the way Beiyan came back, he received the letter from the Su family, and he was almost certain to embark on the road of Kangzhuang! This is of great significance not only to him, even to the entire Su family.
Su Jiagui is an aristocratic family, and the lack of growth of the younger generation in these years is an unavoidable reality. This time, Su Zhi can escape from the dead and make great contributions, and his status has jumped up. In the near future, he will even have the opportunity to become the leader of the younger generation.
Although Su Zhi is not actually young, after all, he still has a long life to go on. As long as he can continue to rise, there is great hope for the Su family.
"General Su, are you happy to go home? I am happy, I am happy too! But there is one thing I have to kindly remind you, don't be overly happy, you and I have shared hardships in Beiyan, and have gone through a life of nine deaths. It is not easy to come over.
However, our situation in Dakang is worse than Beiyan. You and I have done a good job, and there are many people who are jealous. Be careful! "Lu Zheng said quietly.
Su Zhi quickly reduced her complacency, and said sternly, "Thank you Master Lu for reminding me. In the future, I hope that Master Lu will give more guidance. Let me not hide it from the adults. I was not bright in my mind when I was born in the Su family. I grew up and keen to practice martial arts. If you fail to learn martial arts, your brain is not enough!
If I went to Beiyan this time, if it weren't for the great resourcefulness of the adults, I am afraid I would have become a dead bone in the mound. How can I have the scenery today? "
Su Zhi said this very sincerely. After Beiyan's heart, his admiration for Lu Zheng has already fallen to the ground. He can't control the Su family, but in his own mind, he has decided to maintain a high degree of consistency with Lu Zheng in the future.
He thought very clearly, because he was able to rise in the middle of the year, it was all because of Lu Zheng, so it was natural for him to follow Lu Zheng, and it was natural and natural for him to follow Lu Zheng!
Lu Zheng clapped his hands and said, "Okay, wait! We are waiting quietly for news from the court!"
Lu Zheng sat down on the recliner, closed his eyes slightly, and closed his eyes to refresh himself! Lu Zheng knew very well that at this time Long Lingxiu's carriage should also be on the outskirts of the city. This woman has been behind the delegation. After arriving in the suburbs of Beijing, she will definitely take the lead into the city.
The situation in the capital is very subtle. The princes have their own minds. Long Lingxiu is going on at this time, so why don't they want to inquire about the news?
The East Palace, the Prince's Mansion, Prince Long Zhaoyan and the confidant Dao Jin are discussing secretly. Long Zhaoyan said: "This time Lingxiu has suffered a great loss. It is impossible to give up because of her temper. When Beiyan was in her hands, I don’t have the power, I dare not act rashly, now I’m back in the capital, the situation is different, Master, what do you think my sister will do now?"
Monk Dao Jin held the Buddha beads in his hand, and he pondered for a moment and said: "The situation in the capital has always been delicate. After Lu Zheng returns, I am afraid that it will stir the situation!
Regarding Lu Zheng’s mission, it now seems that the reasons behind it are too complicated. It is so complicated that I can’t fully understand the clues. So, I think the prince should stand still and wait for the opportunity in this matter, and then... "
Long Zhaoyan said: "At this time, the mission is in the suburbs of Beijing. The specifications of the mission to meet are according to the father's meaning, and the leader is one of the princes!
Do you think I earn this errand? "
Monk Dao Jin frowned slightly, and said, "Struggling, of course we must fight! Lu Zheng is very hot now, and the prince can't let go of the opportunity to get in close contact with him! At this time, I am afraid that both King Qin and King Qi are already in secret activities. I don't believe it. The prince can send someone to the cabinet to take a look!"
Long Zhaoyan snorted coldly and said, "Why should the two of them fight with me? Hey, but master, the friendship between me and Lu Zheng was not deep before, and there are still a lot of misunderstandings between the two sides. You said I'm going out so stubbornly. Will it be considered as a loss of the face of Donggong to pick up people?"
"Haha!" Dao Jin laughed, and said: "His Royal Highness, you are too thoughtful! At this time, at another time, what position was Lu Zheng at that time, and what position was His Highness?
But now the situation is different, Lu Zheng is different, and His Royal Highness is also different. At this time, your Royal Highness is encountering difficulties, so can Lu Zheng really go smoothly? A young talent, in a high position, can he still not realize the danger? "
Long Zhaoyan nodded and said: "Master is right, I am narrow! Now in this situation, I should personally welcome the mission to Beijing, at least give him enough face!"
Long Zhaoyan paused for a moment, and said, "It's a pity that the little slave is! She became Lu Zheng's woman, but she can't use it for me. It's a pity!"
Monk Dao Jin said: "His Royal Highness, don't be too demanding in everything! At least in the heart of the slave, if one of the three princes is to be selected as the emperor, he will definitely be inclined to your Highness!
Your Highness, don't expect how much influence a female class can have on Lu Zheng. In your and my hearts, when do you think of Lu Zheng as a young man with a weak crown? This son has gone through several transformations, and has long been reborn. He is not the talented man who can only chant poems in the south of the Yangtze River. His scheming city is probably not weaker than the old man! "
Long Zhaoyan stood up suddenly and said: "Come here, pass on my words, I will personally go out of the city to welcome the mission to Beijing!"
The prince Zhan Shipidian ran over with embarrassment on his face, and said: "His Royal Highness, I am afraid that this incident is a bit late. There has just been news from the court. His Majesty Zhu Pian asked the King Qin to lead the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War and other officials Welcome, the honor guard of King Qin has left the palace and went straight to the outside of the city!"
Long Zhaoyan's expression changed drastically in an instant, and he clapped his hands and said: "This youngest, robbing errands is faster than anyone else! Hmph, Lingxiu doesn't go to see him when he enters Beijing, but he wants to go outside the city and stick to his cold ass. Disgusting! In this world, everyone is snobbish, even if our royal family is no exception, it's sad!"
Monk Dao Jin said: "His Royal Highness, Princess Qian was married to the north, but he did not marry out because of the trouble. This was originally a good thing, because Bei Yan has changed the sky, and who knows that Zhao Dan has been helped up to the throne again. Become the new majesty!
If Princess Qian succeeds in marrying, she is now the prince. The subtlety of this is that she is not in Beijing. I really can't know!
King Qin is a very alert person, he must have discovered something, and he thinks he has found a good opportunity, if not, he would not rush to take this errand like this anyway! "
Monk Dao Jin paused and said, "Alright, you can just go to the Princess Mansion and see Her Royal Highness! Go, I believe the princess must need your greetings at this moment!"
Long Zhaoyan stood up, laughed loudly, and said, "Come here, prepare the sedan chair, I'm going to the princess mansion!"
The princess mansion is clean and cold. Even in the summer heat, there is also a chilly smell here! Long Lingxiu came back, but the weather in the princess mansion was very different from the past.
In the past, the princess mansion, no matter what the time and the scene, was as lively as a market, but now, the court is so cold that no one cares about it.
Long Lingxiu didn't have the arrogance of the past, as if she was ill, and she lay in the Nuan Pavilion when she came back, and she didn't want a girl to wait by her side, only the old ghost, the play father, was guarding her.
"His Royal Highness, Your Royal Highness is here to see you!" The dandy said in a low voice.
"Brother Prince? Haha, are you here? I didn't expect that he would be the first to come! Okay, it seems that he is also an unpleasant person! You ask him to sit in the living room and I will go through the makeup!" Long Lingxiu slowly Sitting up, he looked at the dandy, and said word by word:
"Do you think he can become Lu Zheng's mortal enemy?"
The father-in-law was stunned for a moment, and only felt a chill in his heart. Long Lingxiu's tone was very calm, but father-in-law felt a strong hatred from her calm tone. The murderous intent that this hate engulfed made this summer. The scorching heat has retreated.
The father-in-law lowered his head and retreated slowly, his heart dimmed in an instant, he had an ominous premonition, whether he should find a new way, or just quit his old age!
After working for a whole life, after a few years, and no children, what is his picture? Princess Long Lingxiu, she has fallen into the magic way, and I am afraid she will never come back!
After carefully freshening up, Long Lingxiu's makeup is extremely noble. She walked in the princess mansion, and the whole mansion was eclipsed by hundreds of flowers.
His Royal Highness saw her, his eyes lit up, and he greeted him: "Lingxiu, my palace thought you had suffered a lot when you went to Beiyan, and suffered a lot! Alas, I see you look like you, it seems even more It looks like a few years younger, it seems that I was wrong with my brother, and your life is getting better!"
Long Lingxiu smiled faintly, and waved his hand: "I didn't expect that it was your Royal Highness who came to see me alone. It seems that the Prince's brother has not been going well recently. I wonder if my sister got your thoughts?"
