This Northern Song Dynasty is a bit weird

Chapter 294 is mine
Lu Huiqing left and returned to the capital with a bit of reluctance.

Although here in Dingzhou, he couldn't act arbitrarily, but under Lu Sen's protection, he was really comfortable and happy in doing things.

Those who sucked human blood, the so-called famous families, were overthrown by him one by one, and their heads were rolling. They didn't have to worry too much like they did in Hangzhou.

Then there is road construction, and logistics management.

The merits are filled with a brush on himself. If the imperial court did not recruit him back due to his great achievements, he would probably want to get more qualifications.

After Lu Huiqing left, Lu Sen was still a little worried that the newcomer Wang Shao might not be able to handle the internal affairs of Dingzhou and Xingqing Prefectures, and even the matter of road construction might go wrong when he took over. There were twists and turns, but unexpectedly, this young man managed the internal affairs in an orderly and orderly manner.

There was no delay in the construction of the road.

Although many things will be a little slower than Lu Huiqing, but there is no backlog of official duties, and I can always finish the things that should be done in a hurry on the same day.

"There are obviously a lot of talents at this time."

Lu Sen was a little disappointed. Since there were so many talents in the Northern Song Dynasty in history, who would have thought that it would end up like that in the end.

Fortunately, history has changed a lot now.

Wang Shao perfectly took over Lu Huiqing's government affairs, and at the same time helped the Xingqing government to train troops.

This guy is obviously the type with both civil and military skills, which made Lu Sen, who had nothing to do, nothing to do.

In the following days, Lu Sen 'lived' in Xingqing Mansion.

Di Qing and Mu Guiying led the army to clean Helan Mountain over and over again near Dingzhou, and after leaving enough troops to defend, they moved to Xingqing Mansion with the army.

Then this move frightened Xixia Xuanhua Mansion.

Immediately withered the army to the front line of Xingqing Mansion to face the Song Army across the Gobi Desert.

It's just that the two sides are not the same.

On the Song Army's side, the logistics supplies were sufficient, and the food management was sufficient. They surrounded the camp with horses, and hid in the camp to eat delicious food and spicy food.

As for the Xixia army, due to the continuous war, the country has long been short of supplies, and the important granary Helan Mountain was also captured by the Song army. Now the country is in dire straits, and the people are in dire straits.

Lu Sen also came to the front line today, accompanied by Di Qing and Mu Guiying.

Standing on a high wooden wall, Lu Sen looked at the tents of the Xixia army in the distance, and asked, "It's late spring, and the Xixia people are more resistant to the cold than us. If we really fight, will they be at a disadvantage?"

"They are indeed resistant to cold. But without food, they can't last long." Di Qing said with a smile: "Don't worry, Master Lu, they can't turn the sky."

Di Qing is very confident, and he also has this strength.

He himself is good at defeating the strong with the weak, not to mention that they have a greater advantage now.

Both morale and logistics crushed the opponent, and even cut off one of the opponent's important logistics supply lines.

No matter how you look at this battle, there is no possibility of losing.

Unless... the princes of the imperial court are scared and dare not fight.

But this is unlikely, after all, Di Qing knows very well that Lu Sen has cornered the entire court, and there is no way to retreat.

"Since time is on our side, let's drag it down slowly." Lu Sen said with a smile: "Drag it out until the spring is warm and the flowers bloom, and the climate outside is suitable for us Song people to fight."

"I understand." Di Qing let out a long sigh of relief.

Although he knew that his side would definitely win, he still hoped to wait a little longer.

One is that after the big battle, the soldiers need to rest for a period of time, and the other is to stay for a longer period of time. When Xixia's logistics becomes more corrupt, the opponent's morale will plummet and there will be no strength. It will be easier to fight. There will be less battle damage.

Don't look at Di Qing as a famous general who is victorious in every battle, but he actually loves soldiers like sons. If he had no other choice, he would never let the soldiers die in vain.

Day by day, Lu Sen has been in Dingzhou for nearly a year. Although he took time to go back to Hangzhou a few times, he is still tired of staying here and wants to go back to Hangzhou to rest.

But things have to have a beginning and an end, he has to continue to stay here until Xixia is wiped out by Di Qing.

When Xixia is destroyed, he will return to Hangzhou. As for how the imperial court will deal with the Khitan, whether it can beat it or not is another matter.

Because after Xixia was destroyed, if the Northern Song Dynasty still couldn't deal with the Khitan in civil strife, then this dynasty was really worthless to save.

After staying in Xingqing Mansion for more than half a month, Di Qing came over and said that the time had come to send troops to Xuanhua Mansion, and asked Lu Zhenren to be the commander-in-chief of the army.

Lu Sen left the Xingqing government office, brought a few generals with him, and was about to go outside the city to the labor camp, when he suddenly saw a group of people standing on the corner of the street ahead... It should be said that two groups of people were motionless. It seemed to be waiting for him.

Lu Sen brought Yang Jinhua and the other generals to a stop, because he could clearly see that the other party seemed to be targeting him.

He observed again and found that these opponents were actually two teams.

One team is the Imperial City Secretary, and the other team is more than a dozen monks, wearing blue monk uniforms.

In the middle of the group of monks, there is also a sedan chair on which sits a monk with a dignified appearance.

Lu Sen and him looked at each other for a while, and the other party smiled slightly, with some scrutiny.

At this time, the people from the Imperial City Division came out, took out a scroll of imperial edict, handed it to Lu Sen, and said, "Really Lu, this is an imperial edict from the government, please accept it."

Lu Sen looked at the member of the Imperial City Division, a face he had never seen before.

His eyes fell on the yellow imperial decree, and he said with a smile: "It seems that the imperial decree has not been sealed by Zhongshumen, so I will not accept it."

The member of the Imperial City Division backed away with a bitter face.

"Hahahahaha!" At this moment, the monk sitting on the sedan chair jumped up and slowly floated towards Lu Sen.

At the same time, those standing monks suddenly threw out a large number of white ribbons, flying around one by one, very gorgeous.

The jumping monk stepped on these forging belts, made a Buddha seal with one hand, and his whole body radiated golden light, falling in front of Lu Sen.

"My old man, Chenguang Temple Huixin, has met Master Lu."

With his hands behind his back, Lu Sen looked the monk up and down, and found that the golden light on his body didn't seem to be some trick or blindfold, but really came from his body.

He subconsciously stood in front of Yang Jinhua. Could this person's golden light be radiation?
But then Yang Jinhua stood in front of Lu Sen again.

She said: "There is no reason for officials to stand in front of their wives. You are the head of the family. If you are hurt, the whole Lu family will be shaken. Stand back."

Lu Sen blinked, feeling a little...unbelievable.But within reason.

As expected of a daughter from the Yang family, instead of hiding behind a man, she still wants to protect him.

The monk's eyes kept falling on Lu Sen, and he didn't even look at Yang Jinhua.His eyes were full of expectation and enthusiasm: "Really Lu, the affairs between you and me don't require ordinary people to intervene."

"What happened between you and me?" Lu Sen felt a little puzzled.

"130 years ago, Master Lu, you were an extraterritorial heaven, you listened to scriptures under the seat of the Buddha, and now you fled to the world. At that time, the old monk was your little novice." Huixin smiled very kindly: "I have been looking for you for a long time, I should go back Yes, the Buddha is waiting for you."

Several family members nearby stood up and looked at the monk gloomyly.

Yang Jinhua became angry immediately, drew her sword and rushed forward.

What are women most afraid of?
Husband cheating?

No.

Women in the Northern Song Dynasty were not afraid of this. It was normal for men to have three wives and four concubines.

What they are most afraid of is that their husbands become monks.

It's fine for the officials to play outside, but when they return home and live their lives behind closed doors, they can act as if nothing happened.But if the official went to the monk's temple to read scriptures, and no one came back, what's the point.

So the monk asked Lu Sen to follow him to Chenguang Temple as soon as he opened his mouth, which really angered Yang Jinhua.

She has been practicing Immortal Art for a while, and she has spiritual aids such as Spiritual Qi Bricks. Although her talent is not high, this method of directly accumulating resources still makes her strength skyrocket.

In just two steps, he was already in front of the monk, and the long sword pierced the opponent's eyes with sword energy.

She hated this monk who wanted to abduct officials and leave him without a monk, so she didn't spare any effort.

It's just that the Huixin monk moved forward with his right palm, and the golden light gushed out, knocking Yang Jinhua back two steps.

Several generals rushed forward, trying to help the mistress, but the monk Huixin waved his sleeves lightly, and the generals flew back backwards.

"Benefactor Lu, why don't you come with us?" Hui Xin clasped his hands together and said with a smile, "I have obtained the official's secret decree, please return to Chenguang Temple, and chant scriptures day and night to dispel anger."

Lu Sen raised his eyebrows, and he understood what the other party meant.

Buddhism is trying to drag themselves into their camp. To put it bluntly, it is still a dispute between religious forces.

Lu Sen looked at this monk, he had a strong spiritual power, which should be the last foundation of Buddhism.

In fact, in comparison, the background of Taoism is the strongest.

Whether it is the Taoist of Zhongnan Mountain on the bright side, or the Lishan, Tianjimen, Shushan Sword School, etc. in the practice world, they are all branches of Taoism.

Yang Jinhua took a few steps back, seeing the scorched black on the tip of her sword, she knew that the monk in front of her was extremely powerful.

She patted Bi Fang, the flamingo on her shoulder, and the two merged directly, then flew up into the air, turned into a flame and rushed down from the air.

Huixin raised her head and saw Yang Jinhua's strange appearance, not only was she not afraid, but she was pleasantly surprised: "It turns out that you are Garuda, you are really good, you should be my Buddhist mount."

As he spoke, he actually took out a golden chain from his clothes and waved it twice, as if he wanted to throw it upwards to Yang Jinhua.

Just when Huixin was about to make a move, he suddenly felt heart palpitations. He suddenly lowered his head, and at some point, Lu Sen had already raised his sword and came in front of him.

Lu Sen's long sword stabbed out, and the invisible Taiyi Hunyuan True Qi gushed out, forming a thick wave of air. Before it hit Huixin, the strong wind caused his clothes to rattle.

Huixin immediately pushed out with one palm, and golden light gushed out, colliding with Lu Sen's True Qi Wall.

Immediately, the two took two steps back at the same time.

At this time, Yang Jinhua transformed into a fire bird that descended from the sky, directly enveloping Huixin. Wherever it was located, a group of lotus flames exploded without fuel, about two feet high, burning blazingly. The heat wave was scorching.

All the generals admired it.

This kind of attack method is obviously not at the level of ordinary people.

The members of the Imperial City Division had already run away, and were hiding in a corner, shivering.

They actually didn't want to come, but they had to come under the order of Empress Dowager Cao.

The lotus fire continued to burn, and after a while, a red figure jumped out from inside, it was Yang Jinhua.

She was wearing a red close-fitting glazed armor, and she looked extremely heroic.

She returned to Lu Sen's side and whispered, "Officer, there is something wrong with this monk."

But before she finished speaking, a golden chain was thrown out from the flames and was about to wrap around Yang Jinhua.

But Yang Jinhua didn't practice fairy arts for nothing, so she knocked the chain aside with a light flick of the long sword.

It's just that the chain seemed to be spiritual, and its tip actually turned a corner and shot at Lu Sen.

"Officials be careful." Yang Jinhua yelled.

It's just that it was too late, the chain wrapped Lu Sen tightly in the blink of an eye.

"Hahaha." Huixin walked out of the flames with golden light all over his body, holding the end of the chain in one hand, and said with a smile: "Benefactor Lu, please obediently come with us. At the same time, your wife can also be with you , Garuda should be the mount of my Buddhist sect, and it should also be your mount."

Yang Jinhua became anxious, and slashed at the chain with her sword, but after a few clangs, the chain was intact.

Lu Sen looked at the smug Hui Xin, and asked with a smile, "You think you really tied me up?"

Ok?
Hui Xin looked at Lu Sen's body, and then her expression changed drastically.

And Yang Jinhua also heaved a sigh of relief.

It turned out that although the chain seemed to be entangled with Lu Sen, it was actually at least one finger away from Lu Sen's body, and it didn't bind him at all.

Lu Sen was still wearing 'iron armor'.

Before the durability of this thing drops to 0, nothing can hurt Lu Sen.

"Body protection?" Hui Xin was stunned for a moment, then shook her head: "It's not like that, the protection of the body is not like this."

Lu Sen ignored him, and directly reached out and grabbed the other party's golden chain.

This action made Huixin's face change drastically: "You are so brave, let me go."

How could Lu Sen let go, he said with a smile: "This thing doesn't seem to belong to your Buddhism either."

In Lu Sen's vision, the name and function of this thing appeared.

Binding Xiansuo: One of the magic weapons of the Shushan Sword School, it is made from dragon tendons.

Function: Bind an enemy at will, making it impossible to break free.

Huixin snorted, pulled the chain vigorously, and said at the same time: "Everything in this world belongs to my Buddha, just a chain..."

At this time, Yang Jinhua turned into a ball of flame again and rushed forward.

Huixin pulled the chain hard, but found that Lu Sen was pulling it very tightly. At this time, Yang Jinhua attacked again. He had no choice but to abandon the chain in his hand, take a small step back, and then blast out with both hands at the same time.

The transparent golden light turned into several python dragons, knocking Yang Jinhua's flame into the air and retreating.

But because of this, he lost control of the chain.

Lu Sen stood behind, holding the fairy rope in one hand, and said with a smile: "Thank you for the magic weapon, Master."

"It's useless for you to hold it. If you don't know how to use this chain, outsiders must not use it."

It's just that as soon as he finished speaking, he saw the fairy rope in Lu Sen's hand flying over, and it was in front of him in a blink of an eye.
