Chapter 414: I am not allowed to go to the martial arts hall, which means that I am under house arrest.
Sure enough, after Su Lu finished his porridge, he still failed to see the eldest lady and nephew of the Da Zong family.
When Li Qing came over, he only brought Gao Zhan and Su Ge with him. When he saw Su Lu waking up, Li Qing narrowed his eyes and sat down beside the brocade couch, asking softly.
"How are you feeling? Are you feeling better? Lao Xia has prescribed a lot of tonic medicine for you, several of which are only found on the grassland. I have already sent an order for Pegasus to pick them up."
Su Lu put down the porridge bowl and said casually: "Fortunately, at least the wounds on my body no longer hurt. I can still adapt to life in the north. The south is not suitable for me."
Mingyue said next to her: "The climate in Guangnan is also very good. Your Majesty, you are of a delicate body and cannot bear the climate that is different from the environment where you grew up. On the contrary, we southerners have nothing to do in the north.
"
Su Lu nodded: "You are right, people in the south are more tolerant to the cold, but I can't bear it."
"By the way, why is Da Zongzheng's daughter here? Is she here to investigate?"
With Li Qing's help, Su Lu stood up and walked a few steps. When he felt there was no problem, he simply threw away Li Qing's arm.
"I'm not even 70 or 80 years old yet. When that time comes, you can help me again."
Li Qing smiled and narrowed his eyes, watching Su Lu walking back and forth quietly.
"Although Da Zongzheng has made great contributions to the royal family, his daughter is not qualified to hold a prince accountable, let alone my husband, who has made great contributions to the Jade Pillar of Han Dynasty."
Su Lu remembered the southern border and asked, "How is the war in Xiting? Did Cao Hua defend Ning'an? Da Zongzheng should also have arrived in Xiting?"
Something strange flashed in Li Qing's eyes, and he said helplessly: "Fortunately, Cao Hua defended Ning'an, and Da Zongzheng also arrived. He was pressed to the top of the city by Lu Zhan. After watching several battles, he vomited several times.
Time, now I am feeling depressed, I guess I am sick."
"Qian Buzhou came to the table, talked about the war, and mentioned a few things about Da Zongzheng. The implication is that Da Zongzheng suffered a lot, and now he knows that he was wrong, but he is a stubborn duck and refuses to do it.
Admit your mistake with your mouth."
Su Lu nodded: "I didn't want to make things too difficult for her. In this case, just come back. As long as he doesn't cause trouble for me anymore, I won't cause trouble for him, Da Zongzheng."
Li Qing responded with a smile and narrowed his eyes.
After chatting with Su Lu for a while, Li Qing was called away by Gao Zhan. Six ministers asked to see him, and Li Qing had to meet them in the imperial study.
Su Lu didn't take it seriously either. He came out of the palace and was a little dizzy when he was hit by the sun. He had been hiding in the house these days and his legs and feet were a little weak.
After walking around the courtyard, Su Lu left the palace, walked along the corridor for a while, and arrived in front of the palace gate.
The palace guard wanted to stop Su Lu, but Chang Ning glared at him and immediately did not dare to say anything.
Su Lu smiled and said to the palace guard guarding the door: "Whose path did you take to join the palace guard army?"
"Li Lin's men are still Zhao Pu's men. These two boys didn't come to pay me a visit. They are really nothing."
Outside the palace gate was a young man who looked a little excited when he heard this. From the tone of this gentleman, he must be a big shot.
"Sir, the younger one is from the Zuogong Guards, and Mr. Zhao Pu is in charge of us."
"As for whose path I took, I don't know. My father and the adults in the Palace Guards are the same ones. I don't know who my father had an affair with, so I came in."
Su Lu nodded and continued walking outside.
Zhuque Street has returned to its former prosperity. After passing the East and West Palace Walls, the streets on both sides of the road are congested, and the noisy hawking sounds fill the eardrums.
"Fried fruits, I guarantee you'll want two more after eating one."
"Ciba, fresh glutinous rice cake, guaranteed to be so sticky that you can't even open your mouth."
"Sweet potato balls, very sweet."
"Candied haws on a stick, candied haws on a stick, one penny a bunch, delicious and not expensive."
"Wontons, delicious wontons."
There are hawking sounds everywhere, and there are crowds of people in front of various stalls.
Su Lu took a few bunches of candied haws and ate them while walking.
Next to them, Qingfeng and Mingyue were each eating a bunch of candied haws, their faces covered with candy.
"Master Su, Master Su, long time no see."
A smiling Xiao Cong suddenly appeared in front of him, stopped Su Lu, and asked with a smiling face.
"It turns out to be General Xiao. How come the old general is here too? He has nothing to do and is here to kill time?"
Su Lu asked Xiao Cong with a smile.
Xiao Cong laughed and said: "Just come and ridicule me. To tell you the truth, I really don't have any big things, but I do have a lot of small things."
"The banditry in Xuanfu in the North was wiped out, mostly due to the prince's credit. His grandmother's Ministry of War asked me several times and wanted me to tell you about your method of suppressing bandits in the North, so that the Ministry of War can learn from it so that it can be promoted to other countries.
Across the country, we will completely eradicate banditry everywhere.”
"I originally planned to visit you in the palace in the next few days so that I could discuss with you strategies for suppressing bandits, but I didn't expect that you would actually leave the palace."
Su Lu handed the candied haws in his hand to Mingyue and Qingfeng next to him, and said casually: "Suppressing bandits can only be handled by the various government offices. For such a trivial matter, do you still need a general like you?"
The two of them walked slowly, and Xiao Cong introduced Su Lu to the stalls on both sides of the road from time to time. There were snacks, gadgets, and some boxing gyms and schools.
"Your decree to open a school is a major event that benefits the country and the people. Look at the little kids running around. They all know some words. The older ones know even more."
"In the future, our army will be filled with young men who can read and write by themselves. They will all understand military strategies and strategies. The combat effectiveness of our army will be improved."
"Here, let's have a bowl of wontons?"
Xiao Cong sat down on the chair, and said to the boss lady in a grand manner: "Boss boss, please bring two bowls of wontons, some cooked chickens, and two. This young man and I will each have a taste."
Pass the snacks throughout the martial arts hall."
It didn't take long for the wontons to arrive. The lady boss smashed two eggs on a small plate and placed them in front of Su Lu and Xiao Cong.
"I haven't been to the martial arts hall for a while. As the mountain leader, I really neglected my duty."
Su Lu talked about the martial arts hall with a lot of helplessness in his tone. He was away fighting all the time and didn't do much for the martial arts hall.
I feel ashamed to be called the mountain leader.
Xiao Cong, who was taking a bite of chicken, raised his head, glanced at Su Lu, and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, don't you know? The Martial Arts Hall no longer has your course schedule, Your Majesty?"
Xiao Cong lowered his voice and spoke.
Su Lu said in astonishment amid the noisy voices around him.
"What are you saying, you won't let me go to the martial arts hall?"
Xiao Cong nodded: "Now the entrance to the martial arts hall is guarded by palace guards. You will definitely not be able to get in. Even if you beat up Li Lin and Zhao Pu, I'm afraid it won't help."
Su Lu asked Xiao Cong with a smile: "Then have you heard any inside information, such as the news about wanting to remove me, or about the war in Xiting?"
"Look, Lao Xiao, I have been banned from entering the martial arts hall. I am followed by guards when I go in and out. This is completely under house arrest."
