Luck is a very mysterious thing that cannot be seen or touched, but it does exist. Lu Hanjiang has always felt that the reason Tianquan has walked on the tip of a knife several times and is still alive and well must be because he is blessed with great luck.
On his way north, the masters of the Qingcheng Sect were also busy searching for the person. When he received another message from Protector Bai, the double agent, he looked at the words on the letter and smiled happily.
Tianquan's crisis was finally safe. Master Yushu arrived in time. The three guardians fought and retreated. Finally, after getting the old Taoist priest's promise to save his life, they released the hostage and only took him with him.
Qian Xiaoxiao ran away.
Although Tianquan was rescued, Master Yushu soon discovered the poison in Tianquan, which made him shocked and angry. Unfortunately, the three Xuantian Sect members had already disappeared without a trace.
Don't think that the Qingcheng Sect is powerful because they can easily block people. In fact, Tianquan is also a hot potato in the hands of the three guardians. Therefore, it is not that the Qingcheng Sect has found the Xuantian Sect, but that the three guardians deliberately let it go.
Master Yushu found them.
Now that everyone has escaped, Master Yushu has no choice but to attack. Fortunately, Tianquan's poison will not endanger his life for a while. This makes Master Yushu breathe a sigh of relief. After thinking deeply, he decided to go north to the capital first.
Let’s talk about it after everything is settled.
He didn't know whether to say whether Master Yushu was big-hearted or confident enough. Lu Hanjiang could guess with his toes what Xuantian taught Tianquan.
In this regard, he can only say that if Tianquan can still survive this calamity, then he must go back and have a good relationship with this wise brother. It would be a pity not to make good use of such good luck.
.
Talking about Lu Hanjiang himself, he started his journey at the beginning of the year and returned home at the end of the year. The adults in the capital were probably all shocked.
A dignified commander of the Royal Guards, the leader of His Majesty's army, and after Mr. Meng, there is another ruthless person in the court who is expected to cover the sky with one hand. He actually went out to wander around for a year without saying a word. It is simply worse than the real world.
The knight still wants to stay home.
Fortunately, this old man didn't do any crazy things like treating the world as a temple. When autumn turned to winter and the snow fell, Lu Hanjiang and his party finally returned to the capital.
Lao Qian, who had received the news in advance, had already been waiting at the door to greet him. When he saw Wu Qiming escorting his master back in person, he and the dusty royal guard looked at each other and sighed in unison.
After Wu Qiming safely delivered Lu Hanjiang to his house, he could finally leave with peace of mind. Lao Qian quickly straightened his expression and came to greet him with a group of servants and stewards.
"Congratulations to welcome the master back home!"
The servants greeted each other loudly. Lu Hanjiang raised his head and looked at the brand new plaque of Lu Mansion. Facing his hometown after almost a year away, he still felt a little emotional in his heart.
"Thank you for your hard work, old Qian."
Lu Hanjiang pretended not to see the resentment in Lao Qian's eyes, patted him on the shoulder, crossed the gate and entered the front yard.
Just as he was about to speak, he soon heard the sound of footsteps. The little girl came to him with a red face. Lu Hanjiang subconsciously took out his hand and gestured. Well, it seems that this year is the year.
Didn't grow much taller.
"You're back." Yongle raised his head, his eyes seemed to have a sparkling color, and he looked very happy, which made people feel happy in their hearts.
"You're back, princess, are you going out?" Lu Hanjiang responded, and then he saw the maids following Yongle, holding heaters, cloaks, and large and small bags in their hands.
Look at Yongle again. He is wearing a creamy white Sichuan brocade jacket that is bright and cute, and a pair of deerskin boots on the soles of his feet are brisk and moving. He seems to be about to go out.
Yongle smiled and said to Lu Hanjiang: "I made an appointment with A Luo to go out for fun. You don't have to wait for me to eat at noon."
After saying that, Yongle walked across Lu Hanjiang and went out again. A group of maids hurriedly followed him, and they couldn't help but feel embarrassed on their faces. I don't know whether it was because the princess was not well-behaved or because the consort was following her.
Lu Hanjiang thought it was nothing, so when he arrived at the door, he said, "Princess, be careful on the road."
Yongle poked his little head out of the carriage window and waved goodbye to Lu Hanjiang.
After sending Yongle away, Lu Hanjiang looked back at Lao Qian who was hesitant to speak, raised his eyebrows and said: "Old Qian, you must have ghostwritten the letter the princess gave me. I don't think the princess is very happy at home alone.
Well, I miss my consort and feel depressed, you can really make it up."
Lao Qian blushed, coughed twice and said, "It's okay. Your Highness the Princess indeed misses you very much. It's just that your Highness is thin-skinned and doesn't say it out of words."
Lu Hanjiang twitched his lips. Anyway, he didn't see where Yongle missed him so much. But since there was nothing to do, he went back to the study with peace of mind. Lao Qian followed closely behind him. It seemed that he had something important to report.
.
After the two came to the study, Lao Qian drove away the servants around the study. After there was no one around, he whispered to Lu Hanjiang: "Master, Master Shangshu sent a message before."
"What are your instructions, uncle?" Lu Hanjiang asked.
Lao Qian said solemnly: "The elder said that you should prepare. He will open an ancestral hall before the year and let you return to the clan."
Hearing this, Lu Hanjiang was stunned for a moment, and then something complicated came into his mind. As smart as he was, he could naturally guess Lu Shangshu's intention.
Only a few people know the truth about Master Meng's disappearance. Lu Shangshu may or may not know that he wants Lu Hanjiang to return to the clan. He does not want to rely on his reputation as a commander to gain face for the Lu family. On the contrary, Lu Shangshu wants to make Lu Hanjiang look good.
Lu became his helper.
The Lu family is also an aristocratic family with a long-standing reputation. It only has one more commander, Lu Hanjiang. However, once it became prosperous, the Jin Yiwei has long been infamous. The Lu family will inevitably bear some bad reputation if they associate with them.
In the long run, this matter is harmful to the Lu family. The only person who can benefit from it, both covertly and overtly, is Lu Hanjiang himself. Not only can he eliminate the rumors about his moral integrity, but he can also bring the Lu family into the court.
Help.
Although the Lu family is not as popular as Luo Fuzi, but it has been passed down for many years, and its power in the court is also intricately connected, with many connections, all of which can be used by Lu Hanjiang.
Lu Hanjiang understood that this was Lu Shangshu's kindness to him. Mr. Meng disappeared too suddenly, and many things were not handed over completely. It seemed that the Jin Yiwei had gained the emperor's trust and everything was as before, but in fact, many forces in the court were secretly attached to them.
, the attitude began to waver.
Lu Shangshu's move was to use the entire Lu family to support him and stabilize the market. It would be false to say that he was not moved. Lu Hanjiang, his uncle, had nothing to say about how good he was to him.
However, there is still some hesitation about this matter.
First of all, the decline in Jin Yiwei's influence in the court is actually half of Lu Hanjiang's fault. He thought he was happy as a hands-off shopkeeper, so it was inevitable that he had neglected the interpersonal relationship.
But on the other hand, Lu Hanjiang knew that Mr. Meng was cautious throughout his life and had always done things in an orderly manner. Since the other party did not take the initiative to settle these relationships, in his opinion, the old man probably hoped to use this opportunity to deliberately create some turmoil.
Therefore, Lu Shangshu's kindness this time made him a little unsure about how to deal with it.
