Fang Qin couldn't run fast while holding her child, so she was chased and beaten by Lu Wei. The sound of crying for father and mother floated over the empty grass.
Zhang Yuqing climbed into the carriage, lowered the curtain, shrank into a corner, and covered her face. Only then did she realize that her cheeks were burning. She recalled Lu Wei's look of full of expectations and furious after being interrupted, and she couldn't bear it.
I couldn't help but curl up the corners of my lips.
After entering Baochuan City, Lu Wei immediately went to the military camp without having time to go home.
Lu Weiting apologized for not sending Zhang Yuqing home, but Zhang Yuqing felt relieved. Then he excused himself to be busy with business matters and left early and came back late, leaving him and Lu Wei with almost no chance to meet and talk.
A few days later, a young man from Mercy Nunnery arrived in Baochuan and brought a message from the princess, saying that there was news from the capital. During the meeting, the foreign envoys scolded the emperor for being unkind and unjust, and even killed his brother's country.
Your Highness, you want them to fight again.
During the previous defense battle at Baochuan, the Hu people only made a tentative attack and did not press all the main forces. If the Hu people's prince was not beheaded by Lu Wei, the army's morale was weakened and its energy was lost. It would never have been possible to retreat so quickly. If it had been true.
A full-scale war is definitely not at the level of the Baochuan Defense War.
Of course the emperor did not dare to fight, so he appeased the Hu envoys, saying that the death of the Hu prince was an accident. Some ministers from the peace faction in the court also wrote letters to impeach Lu Wei, saying that the Hu people had lived in the grasslands for generations and would never do anything.
To occupy the territory of Daxia, the most they came to Daxia was to grab some food and women. It was Lu Wei who killed their prince, which brought a huge crisis to the relationship between the two countries.
The Hu envoys took the opportunity to say that they would increase tribute to make up for their losses.
And the emperor agreed.
"Absurd!" Lu Wei was furious and smashed the case to pieces with one palm.
I have never heard of a defeated country asking the victorious country for compensation for its losses, but the victorious country actually agreed. It is simply ridiculous.
The boy's face was also very ugly, "As soon as the princess heard the news, she immediately ordered me to report to you in secret."
"Your Majesty, where did he put the soldiers who died in battle?" Lu Wei said through gritted teeth.
Why did they fight so hard on the battlefield? They won the war with the belief that they would die, but they had to suffer more oppression and oppression. The sacrificed soldiers died with their eyes open, so how should the living soldiers face the future?
The servant said: "The princess wants you to be prepared for future changes."
Since the emperor gave in in front of the Hu people, it is very possible to deal with Lu Wei, the culprit who killed the Hu people's prince. However, Lu Wei is a hero in the hearts of everyone in Daxia. The emperor may not be able to find an excuse to take action now, but it may not be possible in the future.
No.
Everyone present knew that chills were welling up in their hearts, but more importantly, they were extremely excited and eager to try, and everyone's eyes were shining.
Meng Zeliang stood up first, clasped his fists and said loudly: "Sir, we have 20,000 cavalry and 30,000 infantry. If anyone dares to touch us, we will fight to the death with him!"
The other officers in the military tent stood up and shouted in unison: "Whoever dares to touch our lord, we will fight him to the death!"
Lu Wei's face was as dark as water and he looked majestic. He raised his hand to signal everyone to calm down.
Nowadays, all the officers in Baochuan belong to him, and most of them were promoted by him. Those of Zou Bin who are not of the same mind as him will either die or get out.
Since last year, they have begun actively recruiting new soldiers and encouraging people from other places to join Baochuan.
"It's not time to fall out yet," Lu Wei said.
Compared to the entire Great Xia, they are still too weak. The force controlling Shen Shoushan in Liangzhou alone is said to have 200,000 soldiers, not to mention the millions of well-equipped Imperial Guards in the capital, as well as supporting troops from all walks of life. Self-respecting princes.
Maybe they can compete with Shen Shoushan, but trying to use the power of Baochuan to fight against the Great Xia Dynasty is tantamount to hitting an egg against a stone.
The officers became even more excited. "It's not yet time to fall out," which means that sooner or later, they will fall out. They have long been dissatisfied with this rotten and dirty court!
What was Baochuan like before Lu Wei and his wife came here? What was the difference between it being the territory of Great Xia and a man-eating devil's cave! If good officials like Lu Wei were to be harmed by the imperial court, they would go back to the darkness and precarious situation they had before. Life, no one has ever rebelled against it!
After having tasted heaven, who would want to go back to hell?
Lu Wei had something on his mind, so he returned to his house early today and wanted to talk to Zhang Yuqing.
Ever since he expressed his feelings to Zhang Yuqing, the two of them seemed to have never sat down and had a good chat again.
When Lu Wei entered the room, it was still bright and Zhang Yuqing was standing at the desk in front of the window waving his hand. Several pieces of paper with writing on them were already placed beside him.
The peach tree in the yard stretched out several branches to the window. The peach blossoms were in full bloom on the branches. A few birds were chirping and jumping around, standing on the branches to comb their feathers, and then flew away.
The warm light of the setting sun outlined her slim figure, and her waist was so thin that it could be held in one's hand.
Lu Wei walked over and asked, "What are you writing?"
Zhang Yuqing's expression was a little troubled, and he held the pen in his hand, but he still didn't put it down, "I want to give the child a name."
Lu Wei reached out and took the stack of paper. Various names were written on the paper, Zhang Lanhai, Zhang Lanhong, Zhang Lanzhao...
Lu Wei frowned, "Do you want to adopt that child?"
Zhang Yuqing nodded, "He has no father or mother. It is fate that I met him."
She wanted to protect this child so that he could grow up safely and be healthy.
Don't let her suffering happen to another person.
"Then why is the surname Zhang?" Lu Wei looked at Zhang Yuqing with sharp eyes, "Shouldn't your and my child's surname be Lu?"
Zhang Yuqing blinked. What does the child she adopted have to do with Lu Wei? Why does this person like to join in the fun so much?
Lu Wei stared at her, "You and I are husband and wife, and the child you adopted doesn't call me father?"
Zhang Yuqing was suddenly under a lot of pressure. She felt that if she dared to say no, Lu Wei would have to rush over to make her look good.
"I see that you don't like him very much." Zhang Yuqing said tactfully.
Lu Wei snorted, "I don't really like it."

The baby was hard to raise and even peed all over him!
"But if you want to adopt him, he is my son, and his surname is naturally Lu!" Lu Wei said domineeringly, pointing to one of the pieces of paper, "The word Zhao is good, so let's call him Lu Zhao!"
Zhang Yuqing doesn't like this name, mainly because she doesn't like this surname. Once her adopted child is named Lu, it will be as if she and Lu Wei have joint property that can no longer be divided.
"Okay, let's call him Zhaozhao!" Zhang Yuqing smiled.
Lu Wei emphasized, "It's Lu Zhao."
Zhang Yuqing put away the pens, inks, paper and inkstones on the table and said perfunctorily: "I know, I know."
Lu Wei saw her humming a tune and in a good mood. He couldn't help but curl up his lips and said, "Zhang Yuqing, please play chess with me."
The future is dangerous and the good or bad is unknown. Even though he is excited and complacent about doing something big, he is more uneasy and hesitant. His uneasiness and hesitation cannot be seen by anyone, because he is the leader of Baochuan.
However, when he saw Zhang Yuqing, his heart settled down. With his beloved woman by his side, what else could he feel uneasy and hesitant about?
Before Zhang Yuqing could object, Lu Wei had already taken out the chessboard and chess pieces.
Seeing the hesitation on Zhang Yuqing's face, Lu Wei asked gently: "Have you never learned to play chess? I'll teach you, it's very simple."
Zhang Yuqing grew up in a farmer's family, and it was not easy to be able to read and write. I am afraid that he would not have much opportunity to learn chess.
"Actually, I..." Zhang Yuqing was just thinking about how to reject Lu Wei. Lu Wei had already taken Zhang Yuqing's hand and placed a black jade chess piece between Zhang Yuqing's fingers.
Lu Wei's mouth was serious, and he looked like a gentleman, just like an instructing teacher, "When you play, you should do this, hold the chess piece between your two fingers, and knock the chess piece onto the chessboard."
However, he hugged Zhang Yuqing from behind, and very dishonestly put one hand on Zhang Yuqing's hand, interlocking his fingers on the chessboard.
"That's how you do it, have you learned it?" Lu Wei asked in Zhang Yuqing's ear.
Zhang Yuqing's ears and cheeks began to turn red again, and she turned around and pushed Lu Wei away, "Why don't we try a new way of playing chess today? Each player holds a black and white chess piece and takes turns placing the chess pieces. Whoever gets five pieces in a row on the chessboard first will win."<
/p>
Lu Wei readily agreed, as long as Zhang Yuqing is willing to accompany him, it doesn't matter what he does.
The two sat on the couch and each played chess.
Before the move was made, Lu Wei looked at Zhang Yuqing and said, "I'll give you the second move."
With a smile on Zhang Yuqing's face, he scolded Lu Wei bloody in his heart.
She still has to give up two pieces in backgammon? Think she is mentally retarded!
"That's not necessary." Zhang Yuqing rolled his eyes, "Why don't we set up a lottery, and the winner can order the loser to do something. Mr. Lu, do you dare to bet?"
Zhang Yuqing rested his chin on his hand, his smile was delicate and provocative, and his dark eyes were full of waves, making him addicted to the point of being unable to extricate himself.
Lu Wei finally understands why there are such ridiculous and foolish kings as Feng Huo Xi Prince. If it were him, he would be willing to do anything as long as he could make Zhang Yuqing smile.
"Then you have to think clearly. If you lose, you have to listen to my instructions." Lu Wei stared at Zhang Yuqing, his eyes were fiery and pointed.
Zhang Yuqing smiled calmly, "You win first and then talk about it!"
Lu Wei suddenly placed a black stone in the corner of the chessboard.
Zhang Yuqing smiled when he saw the position, and placed a white stone in the center of Tianyuan.
In just a few breaths, Lu Wei lowered his head to look at the white stones on the chessboard, and then looked up at Zhang Yuqing blankly.
It seemed like a very simple game, but he lost the first game easily.
"Come again!" Lu Wei was aroused to be competitive.
Although his chess skills are not as outstanding as his martial arts skills, he has been taught by famous teachers and can be ranked among the best in the entire capital. There is no reason why he cannot win a single game.
He wanted to win a game and asked Zhang Yuqing not only to sleep in the same room with him, but also to sleep in the same bed!
Lu Wei set a grand goal in his heart.
After five games, Zhang Yuqing yawned, shook his head and sighed, looking like he was alone in defeat.
Lu Wei's forehead was sweating, "Come again!"
"I'm not coming, I'm sleepy." Zhang Yuqing said slyly.
Master Lu's learning ability is still very scary. If she plays another game, she will lose! You can think about it with your toes and you will know what Lu Wei wants her to do.
"But..." Lu Wei was unwilling to give in. He almost won. He had mastered the rules of this game and was confident that he could beat Zhang Yuqing in the next game.
Zhang Yuqing stood up, opened the door, and looked back at Lu Wei with a smile on his face, "Master Lu, is it time to admit defeat now?"
