Lu San'er slept for seven days, woke up groggy, smelled the faint fragrance and walked to Yamazaki's residence.
In a large yard enclosed by a fence, an old man in civilian clothes was trimming the flowers and plants in the yard, but if you look closely, they were actually crops.
In the main hall, a village girl was making tea, and all she could smell was the aroma of tea.
Lu San'er felt like smoke was coming out of his throat, "Old man, can you give me a bowl of water?"
Yamazaki waved, "If you can come here, you are destined. Come in, San'er."
"Shan Lao!"
Lu San'er was shocked to see someone here who he thought had died long ago.
"Ling'er, help him cook a bowl of noodles. Cook some noodles until they are too mushy. His stomach won't be able to bear it."
"Okay."
…
Lu San'er was holding a bowl of rotten noodles, huffing and puffing, eating all the noodles and soup, and swept away four plates of side dishes.
"Hiccup! I'm full. It's a pity that I don't have any wine. It would be great if I had a bottle of wine."
Gu Ling'er smiled and said, "It would be better if there was a bowl of pork head, right?"
"Hehe." Lu San'er laughed dryly, rubbing his head.
Yamazaki shook his head, "I ate too much fish and meat, drank too much wine, and my mind was not in its proper place. No wonder I haven't entered the Yuanshen yet."
"Uh..." Lu San'er was dumbfounded. Does this matter?
Yamazaki pointed out, "You almost died in this calamity. Finally, you remembered to practice the vomiting method. Even if you fell asleep, you still vomited the old and took in the new, and then you woke up on your own."
Lu San'er stood up to pay homage, "Thanks to Mr. Shan for his advice back then. Lord Zhang also helped me analyze it. The reason why my practice can go smoothly is because that night I chopped off my hair and washed my marrow, which laid a solid foundation for my practice."
Yamazaki waved his hand, "No need to be polite, I just spoke, that's your opportunity."
Lu San'er said with a flattering smile: "Old Shan, just use your words again to help me achieve my soul."
Yamazaki was funny, "You stupid boy, you already have a spirit now, otherwise you wouldn't be able to wake up."
"Really?" Lu San'er closed his eyes and sensed, but found nothing.
"The soul cannot be impatient. Go back as soon as possible. Remember not to take pills. Breathing, breathing and practicing hard is the right way."
"Isn't it good to take pills?"
Yamazaki shook his head, "The so-called elixir you take will only make your true energy become mixed. You are not yet forty years old, so why are you in a hurry? Practice slowly."
"But I still have a battle to fight." Lu San'er clenched his fists, thinking about that bastard Zhao Jin.
"Don't worry, as soon as you go back, they will put you in seclusion. If you go to war now, it will be a complete waste of natural resources."
"That's it."
Yamazaki warned, "Calm down, be steady, and don't be in a hurry. The soul can take revenge for a thousand years, so you have plenty of time."
"Haha." Lu San'er was so happy that he lived forever.
Yamazaki waved, "Go back quickly, I don't have anything to entertain you here."
Lu San'er solemnly invited, "Shan Lao, how about you go back with me?"
Yamazaki curled his lips, "What do you think? Idiot, I feel comfortable here, why should I leave with you?"
Lu San'er showed a sincere smile and said, "Let me honor you. When I'm not around, I still have my wife."
Feeling his sincerity, Yamazaki nodded, "Don't worry, I've passed my time long ago."
"Ah?" Lu San'er finally realized that Yamazaki was not an ordinary person, but an expert who lived in hiding in the city.
Yamazaki was funny, "Go ahead, don't tell me you've seen me. If you feel unsafe one day, send your wife here to escape."
"Hey, I get it."
After Lu San'er paid homage, he paid homage to Gu Ling'er again, and this time he turned around and left.
Gu Ling'er thought about it and said, "Uncle, I think Lu San'er is better than the young Marquis. He is a real person."
"This is the difference. The young Marquis was also forced by the officialdom."
"Well, that's true."
"Don't worry about them. They are not the protagonists in this game. The protagonist is the cause and effect dispute between Da Zhao and Da Wu. They are just the cause and effect we get involved with."
Gu Ling'er smiled and said: "It's not right now, but maybe it will be in the future."
Yamazaki waved his hand quickly, "No, then I will be in a terrible situation. There will be cause and effect on both sides."
…
On the other side, the capital of Southern Zhao.
Today is the last court meeting. The army is on holiday and Marshal Zhao Jin, who is resting at home, also went there.
When I returned to the mansion from the next court, I found that Duke Fang was actually there, and I was very curious.
If you have anything to say, you can't go out to the street and have to come home.
Duke Fang informed Zhao Jin that he was going to the palace because the king wanted to see him tomorrow.
"Your Majesty?"
"Nowadays, bandits are everywhere, the place is unstable, and the surrounding areas of the royal capital are also in constant chaos. Although the scale is not large, it makes people feel unhappy. The king plans to let you, the commander of the royal family, control the troops and horses of the royal city and ensure that the royal city is within a thousand miles.
, there is no banditry.”
Zhao Jin frowned, "That's it."
"Is there any difficulty?"
"To be honest with the Duke, the soldiers in this royal city are not of much use."
"That's just right. We will deploy private troops from various clans."
"Ah?" Zhao Jin was shocked, what is he going to do?
"I'll tell you the truth, but I can't tell anyone else."
"Zhao Jin understands."
Fang Guogong solemnly said: "The king has actually had this intention for a long time, but there is no candidate, because this matter cannot be convinced by the royal family, but the royal family controls such a powerful soldier, the king is worried, do you understand?"
"Yes, Zhao Jin understands."
Zhao Jin really understood that the prince's troops would rebel and he could not join, so he had to find him, a prince who could not rebel.
Fang Guogong sighed, "It just so happens that you are from a royal family, and your qualifications can only be a marquis. At the same time, you are Yun Wen Yun Wu, and you are the son-in-law of this lonely minister of our Fang family."
"The king is not afraid that you and I will join forces to rebel, so he will reuse you, constantly promote you, and let you lead the army and gain experience, just for today. Otherwise, do you really think that you can rise to the top with unparalleled achievements?"
"That's what the Duke said." Zhao Jin also understood this.
Fang Guogong warned: "This kind of thing happens because of fate. It can only be said that times make heroes. Jin'er, you must seize the opportunity."
"Zhao Jin understands. Thank you so much, Mr. Guo, for your advice."
"Speaking of which, my old man really wants to talk to you."
"Please give me your instructions, Lord Duke."
"Do you still want to show me this?" Fang Guogong laughed so hard that Zhao Jin was confused.
"You bastard, you have been married for so many years and have nothing to show for it. Do you want your parents to die, or do you want your wife, Qiong Wei, to take the initiative to take a concubine for you!"
Zhao Jin's face turned red, "No, no, the Duke is joking."
Fang Guogong blew his beard and glared, "Who are you kidding me? Hurry up, you are not in a hurry, our Fang family is still in a hurry, how can the other daughters get married!"
Zhao Jin sweats profusely, can this be related?
"I'll stay at home during the New Year holiday." Fang Guogong glared at Zhao Jin meaningfully, and then left.
Zhao Jin scratched his head, is this a mission?
…
The next day, Zhao Jin entered the palace and received the imperial decree and military talismans.
It took five days to convey the order to each family, and the meeting was held on the 22nd.
Everyone is unhappy. Can we calm down a little during this Chinese New Year?
Zhao Jin knew everyone's thoughts, so he didn't say much, just conveyed the order directly, and then divided their respective defense zones.
"Your Majesty, I want to have a peaceful year this year and don't want to hear about banditry, so I'd like to thank you all for your hard work."
"Remember, this is an imperial military order. If anyone makes a mistake, we will report it to them. We will kill them as a warning to others. There is no mercy."
