Phoenix Hairpin Chapter 687: Goodbye
Top recommendations:
Before leaving, Lu Lin went to the East Palace to say goodbye to his daughter.
"Xiaoyu, I will lead the troops tomorrow."
Lu Lin stared at his daughter, his voice was very soft: "Everything in the court is supported by the prince. There is a queen in the harem. The children are not too young, and they can take care of themselves. Don't think too much about it, The most important thing is to take good care of your body.”
Lu Mingyu endured the grief in her heart and whispered, "Dad, take care of you."
Be sure to return to Beijing safely.
Lu Lin raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Don't worry, at most one year, I will come back safely. By then, you should be the Queen of Wei."
Lu Mingyu gave a heavy nasal hum.
Lu Lin was also reluctant to give up, but said in his mouth: "As a military general, it is a matter of course to be loyal to the country. The Yanchu rebellion is a major event, and only I can resist it. The Marquis of Puyang is still a little short of heat. The crown prince has no choice but to send me there. Don't hold grudges against him for this."
"Xiaoyu, no matter what happens in the future, you have to be good with the prince, and don't cause any estrangement over this."
It is unlucky to say such things before leaving.
Lu Mingyu quickly wiped her tears and said angrily, "Don't say that."
Lu Lin laughed: "Okay, I won't say it."
Li Jue, Li Xuan, and Li Yun each said goodbye to their grandfather with tears in their eyes.
After Lu Lin left, Lu Mingyu couldn't calm down for a long time.
Until late at night, when Li Jing returned, Lu Mingyu was not in a good mood.
Li Jing knew that she was in a bad mood, so she was a little more careful with her words and actions: "My father-in-law will lead the army tomorrow, and I will come to say goodbye to you today. Did you tell my father-in-law to take care?"
Lu Mingyu hummed.
Li Jing lay down beside her and put his arms around her shoulders: "Fourth brother will go out with the army tomorrow."
Lu Mingyu knew about the fourth prince's military supervision two days ago.
Listening to the helpless sigh in Li Jing's voice, Lu Mingyu's heart softened, and he said softly: "Fourth brother has a clear mind and is walking the right way. In the future, you can choose a rich domain for him and let him go earlier. Just Fan, it is what he wants."
Li Jing sighed: "I won't treat him badly. He and I are the only brothers who grew up together. I hope he can stay in the court and help me."
Lu Mingyu said lightly: "With the precedent of Li Hao, Li Chang, and Li Yi, the fourth brother wants to help you, but he has to think twice. It is better to leave the land of right and wrong earlier, and go to your own domain. Not to be embarrassed."
This is exactly what the Fourth Prince intended.
Li Jing was silent for a moment, his hands tightened, and whispered in Lu Mingyu's ear: "Xiaoyu, I feel a little uncomfortable."
"In my previous life, I died early. I was unwilling in every possible way before I died. I was a wandering soul for several years, and I was extremely indignant when I saw the two brothers Li Hao and Li Chang sitting on the dragon chair one after another."
"I will live again, I will never give up this throne to anyone. I want both the country and you."
"Now, I am one step away from the throne. When my father is buried, I will be able to ascend to the throne. Everything I thought was at my fingertips. It was more than ten years earlier than I expected."
"For some reason, I'm not very happy now. Instead, I feel a little empty."
He got what he wanted, but he also lost his father and siblings.
Lu Mingyu sighed: "In this period of time, too many people died. Don't talk about you, I don't think it's good."
Watching the familiar people around me die one by one, it seems that even the warmth around me has been taken away. It is obviously hot and dry, and my heart is always cold.
At this moment, the couple embraced intimately, and the feeling of cold and emptiness faded a little.
Li Jing didn't speak any more, just hugged Lu Mingyu tightly.
……
Before leaving, the fourth prince said goodbye to Concubine Zhao Yu and Qin.
Zhao Yu burst into tears and choked up, "You must take care and come back safely."
Concubine Qin was out of breath from crying. She grabbed the fourth prince's arm tightly, and cried bitterly: "Yanchu rebels, it's none of your business. This country belongs to the prince, and he works hard. It should be. Who let you out?"
"The army will set off tomorrow, and you still have time to regret it. Go to the prince and tell him that you are not going!"
Concubine Qin's long fingernails made the fourth prince's arm blue.
The fourth prince didn't care about the pain, he reached out and held Concubine Qin's other hand: "Mother concubine, I personally went to ask the second brother, and the second brother gave me permission."
"The king of Xingyang led fifty thousand elite soldiers, twice as many as the rebels. I will be fine."
Concubine Qin cried: "I don't care about this. In short, I don't allow you to go. Aren't you afraid that the prince will be jealous? If you don't go, I will go for you. I will kneel and beg him to let you live. No matter where it is, I will give you a piece of feudal land, and we will leave the capital together, and we will never come back.”
The fourth prince had a headache when his mother cried.
Instead, Zhao Yu stopped crying, wiped her tears, supported Concubine Qin, and said in a low voice, "Concubine Mother, this is the right thing for Your Highness to do."
"The crown prince was afraid of the Zhao family's army, and asked my father to send 20,000 soldiers, but he did not let my father lead the army. King Xingyang became the main general. This clearly weakened the Zhao family's army."
"The Crown Prince can trust His Highness. However, if His Highness wants to leave the capital, the Crown Prince may not agree to it~IndoMTL.com~ What if the Crown Prince keeps His Highness in the capital for ten or eight years?"
[In other words, the best app for reading and listening to books at present, Mimi Read, install the latest version. ]
Concubine Qin couldn't stop crying, and looked up at Zhao Yu in a daze: "Shouldn't the prince expect Axian to leave the capital sooner? Why would he keep Axian from leaving?"
Zhao Yu whispered: "If it was me, I would do it. Let His Highness stay in the capital, give a free errand, look right in front of your eyes, and you won't be able to turn the wind and waves. Just leave the vassal, stay away from the capital, If a rebellion arises in one's life, there will be endless troubles."
Concubine Qin was so frightened that she almost jumped up: "How can there be such a reason in the world."
The fourth prince took over the conversation: "Why not. If I were the prince, I wouldn't want my younger brother to become a vassal. Why give him vassal lands and let him fly away and live happily? I will put him under house arrest in the capital until he dies of old age."
Concubine Qin's scalp was about to explode, and her voice trembled: "Then, what should I do?"
The fourth prince slowed down his voice: "So, I have to make a contribution to the imperial court. If I propose to be a vassal again, the second brother will be embarrassed to refuse it."
"Your Highness is right." Zhao Yu took over the words, and her voice softened: "If you want to dispel the prince's doubts and scruples, you have to work hard and contribute to the court. Loyalty is not just a word of mouth. completed."
Being a prince is completely different from being the younger brother of the emperor.
Concubine Qin was stunned for a long time, wiped away her tears, and began to instruct the fourth prince: "You go out with the army and get along well with King Xingyang. If there is anything in the future, King Xingyang will say something for you, which is worth a hundred words of others. sentence.”
I finally appeased Concubine Qin.
The fourth prince sighed in relief, nodded and said, "I have written down everything the concubine said."
