General, this plot is wrong

After summoning King Qing and others in the Royal Study Room, Zhao Yin gave a grand banquet to all the ministers, and the banquet was held in the Hall of Chunming.There were more than a hundred tables set up inside and outside the hall, Zhao Yin was at the top, King Qing and his wife sat on his right side, and the queen's mother's house sat on the left side.

Lu Ting, Chuheng and the others sat behind Zhao Duqing, which was considered to be in the front position.

All the civil and military officials attending the banquet turned their attention to the group of them.

This place was originally the place where the princes lived before leaving the palace. After the death of the first emperor, this place was vacated.

Emperor Mingde established Zhao Zhen as the prince early on and lived in the East Palace, while the princess had another palace.It was not until Zhao Yin ascended the throne that Chunming Tower was refurbished because of its beautiful scenery, and was used for every palace banquet.

The place here is spacious and the scenery is extremely beautiful, it is really suitable for people to sit and enjoy the flowers and drink wine.

After Zhao Yin drank the first glass of wine, the palace banquet officially began.

All the dancers who came in from outside the hall to perform dances were young and beautiful dancers from Jiaofang.Every movement has both the beauty of the Han people and the charm of the Hu people.The woman who led the dance was tall and graceful, obviously from a foreign country.

The sound of silk and bamboo in the hall was very lively, and those courtiers who used to love this kind of singing and dancing, it was rare to appreciate the figure of the dancer in the palace teaching workshop, and they all concentrated their attention.Occasionally, someone noticed King Qing and his party, but they saw this group of generals who had been summoned from the border, bowing their heads and eating happily, without paying any attention to whether the dance was graceful or whether the music was beautiful.

"Vulgar...really vulgar."

"I heard that when these people were in the northwest, they flew in the sky and crawled on the ground. As long as they can fit in their mouths, they will eat anything!"

"Eat mice? I think they haven't eaten any good food, so they must have never eaten pork, beef, and mutton!"

Most of the military officers have sharp eyes and ears, and most of the rustling words during the banquet can be heard in their ears.It's just that the civil servants rely on their pens and mouths. Those who use their knives either don't take it seriously.

Naturally, Lu Ting also heard these words, the wine cup in his hand was empty, he was still a little distracted, frowning, he didn't know what he was thinking.The maid behind him stepped forward and wanted to fill the wine for him, Chu Heng on the side reached out to take the wine jug, and said with a smile: "Let me do it."

The maid was blinded by the laugh, blushed and poured wine for He Moer.

"What are you thinking?" Chu Heng asked in a low voice.

Lu Ting took a look at Chu Heng's table case. On the small table, his favorite dishes, such as Nuanhanhua Stuffed Donkey Steamed and Snow Baby, had already bottomed out.Lu Ting casually picked up two chopsticks from his own plate and put them into his small bowl.

"I'm thinking about when this Hongmen Banquet will start." Lu Ting said.

Chu Heng took a sip of the fruit wine, not daring to drink more: "It will always come."

He now completely doesn't know how the plot will develop in the future.

After all, he was still in trouble when he watched it.

Without a predictable plot, all he can do is to cover up the water and earth with soldiers.

Probably this banquet was really just a banquet, and until they were full of wine and food, what Chu Heng and Lu Ting were worried about did not happen.It's just that the further you go to the back, the more people come to toast Chu Heng.

Most of the people who came were civil officials in the court, and many were Hanlin.For the young ones, he was able to decline one or two politely, but for the elders, even if they were only three or four years older, they still looked like seniors.

The wine used in palace banquets has a mellow aroma and strong stamina.

Chu Heng used fruit wine at the beginning, and secretly mixed water in the middle, probably because someone saw his name, so he replaced it with other wine.

After drinking, his face turned red and he was a little unsteady in standing. Lu Ting and Liang Xin'an each helped block a few more glasses.When he saw Lu Geng, the Marquis of Jingyuan, who had already come to persuade him to drink, Chu Heng closed his eyes, shouted "drunk, drunk", and leaned on the table.

There was still half a glass of wine in the wine cup in his hand, someone hit his arm, he didn't pay attention, and threw himself on Lu Ting who came to block the drink.

"Go change your clothes." Lu Geng glanced at the wet marks on Lu Ting's body, called the maid, and whispered for a long time, "Brother happened to bring an extra set of clothes, you can go and change them, don't I was rude at the palace banquet."

Changing clothes at a palace banquet is not a big deal.Most of the courtiers who go to the palace to go to the banquet will order the servants to wear a suit in case of emergency.Therefore, Lu Geng's exhortation did not make people suspicious.

Lu Ting looked at Chu Heng twice, probably already learned about the relationship between his concubine and Dr. Chu from Yuan Shi, Lu Geng smiled: "Don't worry, brother will take good care of Dr. Chu here. "

He Moer, who raised her head and drank a glass of wine, also saw the situation here, and nodded silently.Lu Ting felt relieved, put down the wine cup, and followed the maid out of the hall.

In the first place, Zhao Yin was still talking to King Qing, the queen moved her lips suddenly, she didn't know what to say, Zhao Yin put down the wine cup and said: "Brother Emperor, I'm going to change my clothes."

King Qing raised his eyes: "Your Majesty."

Zhao Yin smiled: "Brother Huang, I really just went to change clothes." He showed the small trace of sauce on the black robe, which was not visible at all, and said, "How can the king of a country wear clothes?" Drinking wine with one's stained clothes."

The words that Zhao Yin said to King Qing were not listened carefully because of the distance.Although Zhao Duqing still maintained his clarity, he didn't know what was wrong with these words.

On the contrary, Lu Geng, after Zhao Yin left, showed a trace of nervousness unconsciously.

"What are you nervous about?"

"I didn't...are you drunk?"

The voice behind him startled Lu Geng. Seeing Chu Heng stretched his waist, revealing a face that was more energetic than everyone present, Lu Geng subconsciously took a step back.

"Don't panic." Chu Heng got up, and took off the silver needle stuck on the Shangyang acupoint of his finger, which was used to sober up, "I'll go out and blow some air, so Master Hou doesn't have to follow."

Lu Geng, who had followed for two steps, stopped when he heard the sound. Chu Heng turned around and gave him a bottle of medicine, "For hangover, take one at a time. If you feel uncomfortable, take an extra one."

After speaking, Chu Heng smiled and greeted all the officials who were intertwined with Gongchou, while striding out of the hall.

Lu Geng was a little worried, and wanted to chase again, but was stopped by He Moer's hand, and the other hand that was not holding the medicine bottle was stuffed into a glass full of wine.

On the other side, Lu Ting really followed the maid to change clothes.

He was originally wearing the regular clothes he had put in Prince Qing's Mansion. Due to his martial arts practice, the robe fit him well, neither hindering his movements nor appearing too loose.

Although Lu Geng was also a military officer, compared with Lu Ting who was exposed to the wind and sun at the border in his teens, was born and died, and was always ready to fight with others, his clothes seemed too loose.

After changing his clothes, he was about to go back to the palace banquet to take care of Chu Heng along the way, when suddenly a figure bumped into him from behind the rockery.

It seemed to be a woman, with an indescribable fragrance wrapped around her body, and every movement brought a burst of fragrance.Lu Ting subconsciously turned to the side. With a "plop", the man jumped out of the air and fell to the ground.

"..."

Just happened to come over to look for someone, and by the way, Chu Heng, who witnessed the whole process of how the girl jumped towards Lu Ting, and how she jumped into the air and fell, stood dumbfounded behind the rockery.

"Get out!"

Chu Heng was about to come out from behind the rockery when Zhao Yin's voice suddenly came from elsewhere.He dodged back, and through the gaps in the rockery, he saw Zhao Yin, who had retreated from the eunuchs and maids, and walked up to Lu Ting.

The woman got up from the ground in embarrassment, covered her face in shame and ran away.Chu Heng hid behind the rockery, and he could see clearly that it was the barbarian dancer who was in the Chunming Hall earlier.

"I didn't arrange this girl on purpose. I think I was moved by seeing your majestic appearance. If General Lu likes it, I can decree to reward you with this girl."

The dancers of the Jiaofang Division, no matter they are Hu or Han, are just like objects and can be rewarded at will.This is how Lu Ting's biological mother, Zhange, was taken from the palace to the Jingyuanhou Mansion, to the place where her life was ultimately ruined.

Lu Ting, who already knew the truth about Zhao Yin's life experience, and Chu Heng, who was behind the rockery, faced Zhao Yin's words, and they couldn't help thinking about the deep meaning in his words.

"I don't mean anything else. I just heard that General Lu's biological mother is also a barbarian. Besides, General Lu doesn't seem to have a concubine to serve him these years. Since this girl has a heart for the general, I might as well be a matchmaker... ..."

"Your Majesty." Lu Ting said, "The last general is also a dragon..."

Before Lu Ting finished what he wanted to say, Zhao Yin's eyes were dim, and he suddenly said, "Do you know why your biological mother died?"

Lu Ting frowned.

Chu Heng clenched his fist suddenly.

Due to the fact that this matter was kept a secret, the news was not disclosed, not even mentioned in the secret letter passed from Yandu to Prince Qing's Mansion at that time.

"Your biological mother did not hang herself by throwing a sack, but was strangled to death by Jingyuanhou Luzhan."

The truth was so shocking that Chu Heng almost exposed the information that he was hiding behind the rockery.He bent over and curled up, his heart beating like thunder.

Outside the rockery, Lu Ting's face has changed.

Zhao Yin continued: "Because I suspect that you are not a parent and child, your biological mother is in the Jingyuan Hou Mansion. If Madam Hou hadn't taken care of her, she would have starved to death with you in the backyard. After that, you followed the emperor to the northwest, and Lu Zhan missed you. The birth mother was strangled to death, in order to avoid accidents, he pretended to be at the scene, causing your birth mother to be unbearable to gossip, and cast the illusion of hanging herself, so as to deceive you for many years..."

"Why did the emperor investigate these things?" Lu Ting interrupted Zhao Yin.

Zhao Yin smiled gently: "It's just a matter of convenience..."

Chu Heng pricked up his ears, wanting to hear Zhao Yin's answer clearly, but King Qing came quickly at this moment. Seeing the two of them here, he immediately cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, there is a military report from the northwest. There is a big axe The remnants of the fugitive family colluded with Daxia and raided several cities on the border of Dayan. Please return to the camp and lead the Xishan camp to attack Daxia!"

Following King Qing, there were also several generals in Chunming Hall who were not yet drunk.Because of Dayue's record of defeat, many generals were eager to try their skills on the battlefield.

Zhao Yin looked at these faces, then looked at King Qing, shook his head and said, "Big Xia is just a small country with few troops, so there is no need for the emperor to attack in person. As for the remnants of the Dayue family, it is only a dead end."

Zhao Yin paused, then turned around suddenly, and looked at Lu Ting: "General Lu, are you willing to replace King Qing and lead your troops to fight against the enemy?"

All eyes were on Lu Ting.

In those eyes, there was worry, but more of it was envy.

Because everyone knew that Daxia and the remnants of the Dayue family were just a mob. Although there were military reports from the front line, they were not asking for support.There won't be any serious danger for Lu Ting to go here, Minghua is just going to earn a military merit.

When the fourth princess returns to the palace, she must remarry. Lu Ting is young but still unmarried. Perhaps this is the emperor's idea.

What those people think in their hearts, neither Lu Ting nor Chu Heng will care.They only knew that the moment Zhao Yin took the initiative to tell the cause of Zhan Ge's death, he was already hinting something to Lu Ting.

They just don't know whether there is murderous intent or vitality behind this hint.

But at present, if he is willing to give Lu Ting a chance to earn military merit, it is obviously not death.

Lu Ting did not refuse, and accepted the edict in front of everyone.

And Chu Heng, who had always been hiding behind the rockery, finally let out a long sigh of relief.

And when he followed Lu Ting out of the palace, the eunuch who came to see him off sent a message from Zhao Yin——

The general and I hit it off right away. If the general wins this battle, I will become brothers with different surnames with the general, and I will make the general the Jiedu envoy of Jiannan Road.
