Phoenix Hairpin Chapter 21: Reunion
It was not until the evening that the solemn couple Lu Mingfang showed up.
The solemn face is slightly tired, and the expression is very satisfied.
Lu Mingfang's legs are weak and weak, her face is like a peach blossom, and she is very delicate.
When Dabao and Xiaobao saw their father and mother, they rushed over immediately. Zheng Chong's eyes and hands were quick, and he took both sons into his arms.
Probably because of the excessive exertion before, the solemn arms softened as soon as the two heavy sons started, almost not hugging them.
Zheng Dabao looked at his father with some disgust: "Father, you can't hold me anymore."
Zheng Xiaobao nodded inarticulately: "Father is really useless."
Solemnly: "..."
Lu Mingyu and others laughed lightly.
Lu Mingfang's face was a little hot, and she coughed and said, "It's time to prepare dinner! I guess that the adopted father and second brother should go back to the house soon."
Lu Mingyu replied with a smile: "I have already given orders to go on, eldest sister doesn't need to worry about this trivial matter."
Then, he waved at the two naughty bags: "My eldest brother-in-law has been running all the way, tired and hard. Don't make a fuss, you two, come to me obediently."
Zheng Dabao Zheng Xiaobao had long since become Lu Mingyu's most loyal valet. Hearing this, he nodded and got down from his father's arms.
Zheng Zhong laughs dumbly: "These two little monkeys are very obedient and obedient when they are in front of the fourth sister."
Lu Mingyu is close to her eldest sister, and her eldest brother-in-law, Zheng Zhong, is also very affectionate. Hearing this, she smiled playfully: "Whoever comes to me must be obedient. Does the eldest brother-in-law not listen to me?"
As a brother-in-law, in front of my sister-in-law, I always have a better temper.
What's more, Lu Mingyu is so young and beautiful.
Miss Lu Si is notoriously bad-tempered, and only her family can get Lu Mingyu to make jokes like this.
He grinned solemnly and good-naturedly: "Yes, yes, it's me who didn't speak well. Of course the eldest brother-in-law has to listen to what the fourth sister said."
Lu Xuan leaned over and said, "Brother-in-law, tell me quickly, did you win this battle? What military exploits did Dad and the second brother get, and how many rewards did they get? Also, did you have any battles during the war? What fun?"
Lu Mingyue also stretched her neck curiously.
After several years, Lu Mingyu's memory is also a little fuzzy.
In any case, the Great Wei Dynasty had been fighting all the time, until four years later, when Dayan and Great Chu were destroyed, and the Central Plains were unified. There were victories and defeats, of course.
A solemn voice quickly sounded: "We won the battle. Dad led the army to conquer a city and made a great contribution. The second brother beheaded more than a dozen, and this time he can also be upgraded to another level."
"War is nothing more than killing and killing, nothing interesting... Wait, but there is one. On our way back, His Royal Highness the second prince accidentally fell off his horse. Fortunately, the imperial doctor accompanied him to rescue in time, the second prince. His Highness only suffered some minor injuries. After a few days, it will be fine."
"However, His Royal Highness the Second Prince has been in the carriage since then, and has never been seen again."
…
Second prince Li Jing?
Lu Mingyu's mind quickly flashed a handsome young face.
The second prince is two months older than Li Hao. One is the direct descendant of the main family, and the grandfather is the first assistant of the dynasty. One is the son of a dancer, and the disparity between status and status is by no means a star.
Li Hao is both civil and military, tall, handsome, shrewd and decisive.
The second prince is more handsome than Li Hao.
It's just that the appearance and temperament of the second prince resembles Queen Qiao, which is not pleasing to Emperor Yongjia. The most beloved son of Emperor Yongjia was Li Yi, the eldest prince from Concubine Meng.
Speaking of which, the second prince is also unlucky. As the direct son, he has not been established as the prince for a long time.
When it came time to choose the prince concubine, Queen Qiao lost her head for a while and made a foolish move to choose Meng Yunluo, the daughter of the Marquis of Guangping, as the prince concubine.
In Queen Qiao's opinion, this is a great trick. The first prince's biggest reliance is the Guangping Marquis Mansion. As long as the Marquis of Guangping can be drawn over, the position of the second prince's heir will be as stable as Mount Tai.
Imagine, is the Marquis Guangping willing to be the elder brother of the queen mother, or the father of the queen?
It turns out that Queen Qiao really made a bad move.
After Meng Yunluo, the daughter of the Hou Guangping, became the second prince's concubine, she did not agree with the second prince. Others are young couples, harmonious and loving. After the second prince got married, Meng Yunluo and Meng Yunluo were indifferent and respected each other like ice.
Concubine Meng wooed her own niece, which made Queen Qiao even more depressed.
Later, in the battle against Dayan and Dachu, the second prince was shot dead on the battlefield by an assassin hiding in the dark. I almost didn't get the corpse back...
A strange and complex light flashed across Lu Mingyu's black eyes.
Everyone was attentively listening to the solemn words, and no one paid attention to Lu Mingyu's strangeness.
Lu Xuan asked curiously, "Brother-in-law, who has made more contributions to the first and second princes this time against bandits?"
What a fool to ask.
Lu Mingyue tapped Lu Xuan's big head with her hand, and replied eloquently, "Why don't you ask! I heard that His Royal Highness, the eldest prince, has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he is very skilled. He has been in the military camp since he was a child, fighting wars. His ability ranks first among princes. With Hou Guangping taking care of him and the emperor's preference, how could the second prince be better than the eldest prince."
"The second prince must have seen the eldest prince being in the limelight and felt unhappy~IndoMTL.com~ After being slightly injured, he simply hid and didn't see anyone."
This clever ghost.
Lu Mingyu laughed dumbly, reached out and touched Lu Mingyue's head.
Zheng Zhong also smiled approvingly, and immediately reminded: "It's okay to say these words at home. To outsiders, don't talk nonsense, lest they spread to the ears of those who care."
Lu Mingyue nodded obediently.
The concierge hurried to deliver a letter: "Miss, the general and the second son are back."
Lu Mingyu's eyes lit up, and she walked away without saying a word. Lu Minghua and others also walked quickly. Lu Mingfang wanted to walk faster, but when he took a step, his legs were sore and soft.
He leaned forward with a serious face and supported his daughter-in-law's arm: "I'll support you."
Lu Mingfang gave a solemn look, solemnly and silently laughed.
…
Lu Mingyu was anxious and walked quickly. The siblings were soon left behind.
From a distance, I saw a familiar figure walking forward.
Dad!
Lu Mingyu's nose was filled with strong sourness, and her eyes became warm.
In a previous life, Lu Lin died on the battlefield.
She disguised herself and hid in Li Hao's tent.
When the terrible news of Lu Linzhan's death came, she was devastated, but could not show her face. When Lu Lin's body was placed in the coffin, her unfilial daughter was taking care of her injured husband in the military tent.
Later, Li Hao betrayed his heart. In just a few years, she was trapped in a deep palace and murdered by poisoning. In the end, he died young.
Her life is so sad and ridiculous.
Who in this world really loves her?
Who steadfastly trusted her to support her?
Only my father.
"Father," Lu Mingyu burst into the arms of the tall man with tears in his eyes: "You are finally back!"
