Except for Lou Yu, no one present could understand, but this did not stop them all waiting for Lou Yu to express his opinion.

Huo Yan was born in a famous family, and his family also has a similar seniority list. He contacted Lou Wei to talk about it last night, and he guessed a bit.

He looked at Lou Wei.

Frightened by his gaze, Lou Wei couldn't help but take half a step back, but still stared at Lou Yu stubbornly.

But Lou Yu's eyes showed surprise: "Young Master Wei has the elegance to get up early and recite poems, I admire you."

His eyes were pure, and there was no trace of deceit.

Zheng Yi and the others didn't understand "poetry" at all, they thought that Lou Wei was really just reciting poems out loud, and didn't care.

Lou Wei took a few careful glances at Lou Yu, and seeing that he did not react strangely, then returned to Ah Da's side resentfully.

After a night of rest, Ah Da's strength recovered slightly, but the injuries on his body had not been treated, and the blood scabs and clothes were coagulated, and the slightest movement would cause severe pain.

All the wound medicines he brought were lost, so he could only reluctantly follow the team to the capital.

It's not that he doesn't want to collect the corpses for his brothers, but the current situation is not allowed, and these people are definitely unwilling to delay the trip.

In any case, the most important thing is to escort the young master to Beijing safely.

Unexpectedly, Lou Wei suddenly said: "Zheng Zhuangshi, can I ask you brothers to do one more favor? I will reward you with a lot of money!"

Zheng Yi: "...what are you doing?"

Lou Weihong said with eyes wide open: "I can't bear to protect my brothers from tragic death in the wilderness. I want them to be buried in peace. If you heroes can help me, I will definitely remember it in my heart!"

Ah Da's eye sockets were instantly moist, and he lowered his head and silently wiped away his tears.

There are hundreds of strong men here, and it doesn't take much effort to just dig holes and bury them.

But Zheng Yi is in a hurry to go to the capital!

Besides, if there is a lot of money or not, as long as this kid is in his hands, will that rich relative in the capital not give him money?

He was about to refuse, but Jiang Yong came over.

"Young Master Wei, may I ask how much reward you can give?"

Lou Wei looked sincerely: "If you can help me, how about a tael of silver each?"

One tael doesn't sound like much, but there are hundreds of people here, adding up to hundreds of taels.

Zheng Yi thought for a while, he is the boss, and the money of the younger brothers is his money. In this way, he can get 200 taels!

Why not just dig a hole and bury people, no loss!

Jiang Yong also nodded and agreed to help.

A group of people returned to the place where they were killed last night, where dozens of corpses were lying here and there, with horrific remains.

The clothes of each corpse were stripped away, except for one piece of clothing that covered the body, the rest were snatched away, which is really unbearable to witness.

Lou Wei and Ada were pale, with grief in their eyes.

Jiang Yong and his brothers looked at each other with lingering fear.

Fortunately, His Highness had the foresight to let them make a disguise.

If they walked on the road in a stately manner, they might encounter the same accident as Young Master Wei.

One person stood up first, half-kneeling on the ground, sorting out the remains of the dead guard.

It's Zhou Man.

As the former commander of the soldiers, Zhou Man still has some prestige in the hearts of the soldiers.

Although he was dismissed from the position of commander by His Highness because of his mistakes and became a low-level soldier, he is still like a fish in water, and no one dares to act presumptuously in front of him.

After all, in the entire camp, except for Huo Yan and Li Shu, no one could beat Zhou Man.

Jiang Yong originally thought that Zhou Man would be exiled by His Highness forever, but he didn't expect His Highness to take him with him this time in the capital.

Zhou Man obeyed the arrangements all the way, mixed among the government soldiers, and didn't stand out at all, which caused him to have no sense of existence.

Suddenly standing up first, really surprised Jiang Yong.

This tall and burly man collected the body of the dead guard with a serious face, carefully and cautiously.

For some reason, a sour feeling welled up.

Jiang Yong took a deep breath and called his brothers to help.

There are many people and strength is great, but within half a day, they let all the guards go to the ground for peace.

Lou Yu stayed in the carriage and asked Huo Yan, "How many guards are there?"

"50 people."

Lou Yu was surprised: "So few?"

What did King Cang think?Only let Shizi bring 50 people to Beijing?

When a vassal king enters the capital, he cannot lead more than two hundred guards, and Lou Yu brought a full two hundred soldiers, not one less.

King Cang only arranged fifty people for his son, did he really not know that the world is in chaos?

Huo Yan said: "Cangzhou is rich and prosperous, maybe there is no chaos."

The first travel book Lou Yu read was "Anecdote of Cangzhou", and he knew that Cangzhou was a rich place.

But no matter how rich you are, you can't have no sense of crisis at all, right?

No wonder this Prince Cang looked a little innocent.

After burying the people, the convoy finally set off.

Lou Wei's carriage and luggage were taken away, so he could only walk with Ah Da on foot.

It's a pity that he is pampered, and with a slightly fat body, he can't move his legs after walking for a while.

Ah Da was injured last night, the wound was not treated in time, he developed a low-grade fever, and he was also unable to walk.

Zheng Yi had been sending people to watch them all the time, seeing that they were dragging their feet and about to get angry, he suddenly heard Lou Yu's voice from ahead:

"Young Master Wei, I'll borrow your carriage. How about you give me 50 taels when we arrive in the capital?"

Lou Wei has always been worried about Ah Da, and was overjoyed when he heard this: "Very good, very good! Thank you, Mr. Yu!"

He hurried to help Ada: "You are injured, go to the car to rest!"

Ah Da shook his head: "Young Master, go."

When Zheng Yi heard it, mother, Mr. Yu is really talented!This deal is a fucking bargain!

In this way, not only did he save money on renting a car, but he could even earn dozens of taels of silver!

The mind of a scholar is aura!

"Young Master Wei, I can also borrow it from you. Do you think 50% is enough?"

Lou Wei couldn't help being stunned, he only wanted to borrow a car for Ah Da.

Seeing his silence, Zheng Yi became upset: "What's the matter, you don't like Lao Tzu's carriage?"

Lou Wei was at a loss, and Lou Yu came up with an idea for him: "Master Wei, let Ah Da get into Zheng Zhuangshi's car, and you take my car."

"Thank you Mr. Yu, thank you Zheng Zhuangshi."

Lou Wei bowed and bowed, grateful.

Seeing that the young master had a carriage, Ah Da didn't force himself, so he got into the carriage.

Lou Wei ran to Lou Yu's carriage, gasped and said, "Mr. Yu, I'll just sit outside and not go in to disturb you."

Lou Yu couldn't help laughing.

Judging from what happened last night and this morning, although this child is a little simple, he has a kind heart and knows how to read words and expressions, which is quite good.

He didn't have the kindness to invite him in, he just said: "If you pass by a village or town ahead, you can buy some wound medicine then."

Lou Wei nodded obediently, "Thank you Mr. Yu!"

There are no more twists and turns along the way.

On the fourth day of September, the group finally arrived at the Fengbo Pavilion in the suburbs of Beijing.

The official roads here are neat and prosperous.Not far away, the city wall stands tall and majestic.

Not only Zheng Yi, but even Lou Yu was secretly amazed.

It is worthy of being the capital city, the number one city in Dasheng.

Everyone rested outside the storm pavilion.

Zheng Yi had never seen the big world, and was intimidated by the majesty and solemnity of the capital, his heart was pounding, and he couldn't help but came to ask Lou Yu:

"Mr. Yu, what are we going to do next?"

Lou Yu glanced at Lou Wei: "He said that he will be rewarded with a lot of money, and now let's escort him safely to the capital, we have to settle the account first, right?"

"That's right!"

Zheng Yi wholeheartedly agreed, and said first after taking the money he got.

Lou Wei couldn't help looking at Ah Da.

After a few days of recuperation and the purchase of wound medicine on the way, Ah Da's injury is almost healed.

Although he was afraid of Lou Yu, Zheng Yi and others, he was sincerely grateful to them.

If it weren't for this group of people, he and the young master might not have reached the capital with their lives.

Along the way, they encountered many rogues and bandits, but because of the awe-inspiring aura of this group of people, those rogues did not dare to step forward, so they came to the capital safely.

Before they set off, they never thought that the world has become so chaotic.

Ah Da gathered his mind and said sincerely: "If all the strong men are willing, I will go to the city with the young master to get money."

"If you go in and don't come out, what shall we do? This won't work!" Zheng Yi flatly refused.

Lou Wei said: "I'll stay and let Ah Da go to the city to get the money."

Zheng Yi nodded, "Go!"

Although Ah Da was worried about Lou Wei being alone, he could only obey and went to the city gate alone.

Fortunately, the seal was always carried close to the body, and was not snatched by the bandits.

He entered the city without incident.

Lou Yu said at the right time: "Your Majesty, there is no longer any delay in entering the Purple Cloud Temple. If you are waiting for the reward here, I will go to the Purple Cloud Temple first."

Zheng Yi was surprised: "Mr. Yu won't wait for Ah Da?"

"No more," Lou Yu smiled, "Master Wei and the ore will be handed over to you to guard, and you will keep all the money you get."

Zheng Yi said hypocritically, "How dare you do that?"

Lou Yu smiled slightly: "After all, you paid the deposit for the car rental."

"It's easy to talk about it," Zheng Yi smiled sincerely, "Then I'll wait for the good news from my husband here!"

Lou Yu immediately summoned the government soldiers.

Zheng Yi was stunned: "You want to take everyone away?"

"The bigger the ostentation, the less you will be underestimated." Lou Yu explained to him, "I have no identity and no token, so I can only try this method, hoping that I won't be turned away by Ziyun Temple."

Lou Wei thought to himself: Is there such a rule in Ziyun Temple?As long as you have money, you can go there.

He blinked puzzledly, but his instinct told him that it would be better not to say anything.

Zheng Yi didn't understand at all, so he could only let Lou Yu fool him.But even if Lou Yu lied to him, they won't lose money this time.

There is still a kid in his hand who can exchange money!

Lou Yu led the crowd out five miles and stopped outside a villa.

Feng Sanmo was still dressed in black clothes, standing still and waiting.

Except for Lou Yu and Feng Erbi, everyone else was dumbfounded.

Why is Lord Sanmo here? !

Feng Sanmo saluted immediately: "Your Highness, everything has been prepared."

"Thanks for your hard work."

Lou Yu stretched out his hand to hold his wrist, helped him up, and said with a smile, "I like the inkstone you gave me very much, thank you."

Feng Sanmo's ears turned red suddenly, and his speech was clumsy.

Although he never showed it on the surface, his loyalty and respect for Lou Yu was no less than anyone else's.

His Highness praised him, and felt that all the hard work was nothing.

Feng Erbi said at the right time: "Your Highness, let's go in and rest first."

"it is good."

This manor house is located in the outskirts of Beijing, and Lou Yu specially asked Feng Sanmo to buy it when he arranged for Feng Sanmo to develop the hidden line of the capital.

A luxurious carriage of the king's standard was parked in the courtyard, and the congratulatory gifts for the noble concubine were also neatly arranged without any damage.

Feng Sanmo's work is to make people feel at ease.

"The person sent to buy the ore has also been arranged?"

Lou Yu went to the main hall, sat down and asked.

"It has been properly explained." Feng Sanmo responded.

Lou Yu took a sip of tea, only to feel refreshed and refreshed, with a fragrance on his teeth and cheeks.

He couldn't help laughing.

Feng Erbi came in with warm water, soaked the towel, and cleaned Lou Yu's face and hands.

While serving, he asked: "Your Highness, if you leave Mr. Wei alone, you are not afraid that Zheng Yi will hurt him?"

His Royal Highness is kind-hearted and has taken good care of Mr. Wei all the way. Why did he just throw him to Zheng Yi?

Lou Yu said, "Do you know who he is?"

"Isn't he the son of a wealthy family in Cangzhou?"

Feng Sanmo couldn't help but glanced at his brother, and sighed inwardly.

"If I'm not mistaken, he is Lou Wei, the eldest son of King Cang."

Feng Erbi's eyes widened, "Cang Wang's son?!"

He was stunned for a while, and then he said with sympathy: "Then, he is too miserable."

His Royal Highness, the dignified son, suffered such a calamity. Not only did fifty guards die, he lost all the congratulatory gifts, and he was almost killed by bandits.

Thinking of this, he started flattering again: "Your Highness is still thoughtful, we went all the way to the capital smoothly."

Lou Yu lowered his eyes. If it wasn't for the addition of 200 people from Sanjinpo to their team, they might be targeted even if they pretended to be refugees.

There will inevitably be several fierce battles.

"I remember, Princess Cang's younger sister married to the capital, so the relative mentioned by Prince Cang's son is probably his aunt?" Feng Erbi asked.

Lou Yu nodded: "The Du family in the capital."

The Du family has second-rank officials in the court, how can they be afraid of the bandits in Sanjinpo?

If the Du family was reasonable and just replaced them with rewards, everyone would be happy; if the Du family was unreasonable, anyway, since he is no longer in the Storm Pavilion, only Zheng Yi and others will suffer.

Everything has nothing to do with him, he is just an unknown person who visits Ziyun Temple.

As for whether Lou Wei would recognize him or not when he went to Beijing to celebrate his birthday, he didn't care at all.

At that time, Zheng Yi and the others had already returned, even if Lou Wei debunked his identity, it would not have much effect.

He helped Lou Wei on the way, as long as Lou Wei is not ungrateful, he will not mention this matter again.

Hearing this, Feng Erbi finally understood what kind of chess his highness was playing.

Turn the clouds and make the sun go away, but stay out of it.

Absolutely!

On the other side of the Fengbo Pavilion, Zheng Yi and the others were still waiting hard.

Not only waiting for Ada to leave the city, but also waiting for Lou Yu to come back.

Seeing that the sun was about to set and the gates of the city were about to be closed, Zheng Yi finally got impatient and asked Lou Wei viciously, "Why isn't Ah Da coming out?! Could it be that he doesn't have any relatives at all?!"

Lou Wei shrank her neck and explained in a low voice: "For those with relatives, it's just that the capital is huge, and it takes time to go back and forth, and it takes time to prepare the money. You must know that the richer the family, the harder it is to get the money. You have to go to the cashier first. ..."

"It's okay, it's okay!" Zheng Yi didn't know so much, "I'll trust you again!"

Wait one more night at most, if he doesn't see Ah Da again tomorrow, he will kill the kid.

Suddenly, a large group of people rushed in from the gate of the city, and the young man who led them came on horseback, with a flamboyant and extravagant air.

There are dozens of guards behind him, all holding long sticks, with awe-inspiring faces.

Ah Da was dressed differently from them, Zheng Yi saw him immediately.

His pupils shrunk slightly. With this posture, I am afraid that Mr. Wei is indeed either rich or noble.

Zheng Yi is a man of current affairs, he would never dare to clash with dignitaries outside the capital.

So he put on a smiling face and asked Lou Wei: "But your relatives are here?"

Lou Wei nodded, although there was a smile on his face, but there was no joy in his eyes.

He looked up at the man charging forward on horseback.

The man was well-proportioned, dressed in brocade clothes, condescendingly looking down at Lou Wei, frowning slightly: "Why are you making trouble again?"

Lou Wei bowed her head: "Cousin, please run for a while, I will return the money I borrowed from you."

Du Jin waved his hand and said impatiently, "Who wants you to pay back the money?"

After all, he didn't want to say more in front of outsiders, so he raised his hand and ordered the nurse to put a small wooden box in front of Zheng Yi, and said aloofly:

"Thank you all for escorting my cousin all the way. There is a total of 200 taels of silver in it, which is counted as reward."

Zheng Yi: "..."

Why only 200 taels? !

He immediately said: "We saved his life, and he said at the time that he would reward him with a lot of money; we helped him bury his body, and he said one tael per person; we also lent him a carriage, a total of 100 taels. The sum of these is far more than 200 taels! "

Even the rich and powerful can't be unreasonable.

Du Jin looked contemptuously: "I didn't promise you."

200 taels is enough for these untouchables to live on, but it's a pity that these untouchables are so greedy.

"Too much deceit!" Zheng Yi was furious.

Seeing the smoke filled the air, Lou Wei suddenly raised his head and said, "Cousin, you lend me 1000 taels, and I will pay you back."

Zheng Yi quickly shut up.

1000 taels!He had never seen so much money in his life!

It's a good deal.

Du Jin was very impatient: "Borrow you? How can I come up with so much money all at once?"

Zheng Yi looked at Du Jin and then at Lou Wei, feeling that something was wrong between these two.

Wouldn't it be to renege on a debt? !

It would be great if Mr. Yu was here, and he could offer his ideas.

Lou Wei looked solemn: "Cousin, if it weren't for them, Ada and I would have been hacked to death by bandits. No amount of rewards can be too high for saving our lives."

He gritted his teeth and begged: "If you can't get it out for a while, I can wait here and replace it with me when you get it together. Don't worry, I will lend it to you if I say it, and I won't renege on it."

Hearing his words, Zheng Yi couldn't help being moved.

What a good boy who knows how to repay his kindness!

It's a pity that Du Jin only felt annoyed, and he said in a very aggressive tone: "Do you have to let others see my Du family's jokes!"

If he left Prince Cang to spend the night outside the city, someone would visit his Du family tomorrow, and their Du family would be ridiculed by everyone in the capital.

He didn't want to take care of this mess at first, but now that Lou Wei is so stubborn, Du Jin got angry and shouted: "The city gate is about to be locked, stop talking nonsense, come back home with me!"

After saying that, he signaled the guard to go forward to catch Lou Wei.

Lou Wei is a man of his word, but Du Jin is unreasonable.

Conflict is inevitable.

How could Zheng Yi let the duck he got fly away?He directly grabbed Lou Wei's arm and hid him back, the scar on his face was horrifying.

"If you don't give me money, don't even try to take people away!"

This makes sense everywhere he goes!

Du Jin's brows were raised upright, and he was about to shout for the nurse to grab him.

Ah Da suddenly said: "Young master! You go back to the mansion with Du Shao first, and the villain stays!"

Then he turned to Zheng Yi: "It's true that the 1000 taels can't be collected in a hurry, why don't you let the young master go to the mansion to report the reason first, and come back tomorrow when you get all the silver taels together?"

Zheng Yi thinks it makes sense, anyway, Lou Wei doesn't look like someone who can abandon Ah Da.

He nodded, asked someone to bring back 200 taels, and warned Lou Wei: "If you don't bring 800 taels tomorrow, I will cut off Ah Da's head!"

Lou Wei solemnly nodded.

Now he can only go to Du's mansion to beg his aunt in person.

Zheng Yi and his group just waited all night.

The next morning, Lou Wei did not come.In the afternoon, Lou Wei still didn't come.

Zheng Yi's throat was smoldering, and he yelled at Ah: "Why hasn't he come! He really doesn't care about you?!"

Ah Da: "..."

He believed in his Highness, but it was difficult to say what the attitude of the Du family was.

Just when Zheng Yi was on the verge of breaking out, Lou Yu sent someone to bring good news.

The person who came was wearing a Taoist robe, with a bit of fairy air.

"Poverty Dao comes from Ziyun Temple, may I ask if the believer's surname is Zheng Mingming?"

Zheng Yi was full of energy: "I am Zheng Yi!"

He looked behind the Taoist priest and saw no figure of Lou Yu, so he couldn't help but ask, "Where is Mr. Yu?"

The Taoist said with a smile: "Mr. Yu has a predestined relationship with Taoism, and his wisdom has deep roots. He has decided to practice meditation and ignore the world."

Zheng Yi was stunned: "That ore..."

"Don't worry if you have good faith, with fellow Daoist Yu as your guarantee, all these ores can be sold to me."

Zheng Yi was surprised.

"However, you have to check your quality first." The Taoist looked at him pretendingly, with a serious expression on his face.

Zheng Yi was worried: "How is it?"

"It's not top grade, and I wouldn't store it in my view, but this time, the poor can decide to buy it."

Zheng Yi was anxious: "What about after that?"

He still has a lot of mines!

"Don't worry," the Taoist smiled leisurely, "The poor Taoist knows many temple masters and Taoist friends inside and outside the capital, and they may be willing to accept it. If the price is suitable, I can recommend it to good believers."

Zheng Yihong focused his eyes: "How much?"

"A rough stone costs a thousand words."

Zheng Yi did the math, a tael of sulfur powder could sell for a thousand coins, and his hundred catties of rough stones could only sell for a thousand coins, that's too much of a difference!

The Taoist said again: "If you buy a rough stone, you have to pay a high price for a craftsman to refine it. Regardless of the size of the rough stone, there are very few that can be refined."

Zheng Yi thought about it, and the price is not impossible, at least they only need to work hard to mine, and they can make money at almost no cost.

"How many Taoist temples can the Taoist priest recommend for me?"

The Taoist became impatient: "If you are willing to make a deal, we will pay for the money; if you are not willing, you can leave by yourself."

Zheng Yi bit the bullet and asked: "Then do we still need to mine after we go back? The Taoist priest will tell you."

The Taoist priest said: "When the believers go back, someone will go to Sanjinpo to buy them. You only need to dig mines."

Some people go to buy it, don't they ship it themselves? !

Zheng Yi was happy again, this was so easy!

Naturally agreed.

When the news reached the manor house, Lou Yu was playing with the jade seal, and smiled when he heard the words: "Well done, there will be a reward."

Feng Erbi also smiled brightly: "Your Highness is far-sighted, and you don't even need to find another miner."

It's just that the Du family's office was not authentic, and they didn't even want to borrow 1000 taels, which made Zheng Yi and the others stuck in the Fengbo Pavilion, delaying His Royal Highness's drive to Beijing.

"Your Highness, it's not that the Du family can't afford 1000 taels, and Prince Cang's son also said that it's a loan. Why don't they want to borrow money?"

Lou Yu sneered: "The Du family is a close minister of the emperor, so maybe they got some news. If Lou Wei is unable to repay the money in the future, why should they throw it away now?"

"Didn't you say that Cangzhou is rich? How can you not be able to repay it?"

Lou Yu said: "As the emperor, you really don't know the dangers of the world? He even used the trick to celebrate the imperial concubine's birthday, which shows how urgent it is."

If something happened to the vassal princes on their way to Beijing, it was their own bad luck and had nothing to do with the emperor.

If the vassal king is unwilling to celebrate the imperial concubine's birthday, whether he directly refuses or pretends to be seriously ill, the emperor can take advantage of the situation.

If the vassal king sends his son, it will be easy to use the son as a pledge to force the vassal king to give up his power.

Feng Erbi turned the corner and asked, "What if the vassal king doesn't care about his son's life?"

Lou Yu smiled: "It's nothing to worry about a few. When he gathers the military power of most vassal kings, how many others are he afraid of?"

The emperor wanted to cut down the vassals, but he was worried that the vassal kings would support themselves, develop their power secretly, and covet the throne.

Feng Erbi couldn't help worrying: "Then Your Highness, what should we do?"

After all, the changes in Gyeongju are obvious to all.

"there is always a solution to a problem."

He put the jade seal in the box, and said: "Get your car ready and enter the city tomorrow. By the way, call Huo Yan to see me."

Feng Erbi was surprised: "What should I do if Zheng Yi and the others saw it?"

"Don't worry, the Du family will not allow themselves to be the laughing stock of the capital."

Besides, now that Zheng Yi and the others are aggressive, they are not really bold enough to dare to confront the high-ranking family at the feet of the Son of Heaven.

They will know the times.

Huo Yan was called to come, and saw Lou Yu stepping down the steps carrying a bamboo basket.

"The moonlight is just right, come out for a walk with me?"

Huo Yan glanced at the objects in the bamboo basket, his heart pounded and jumped violently.

Ming papers, joss sticks, tributes, etc. were all neatly placed in the basket.

He remembered that on the night of Sanjinpo, Lou Yu had mentioned to him that after entering Beijing, he would worship his father and elder brother with him.

Huo Yan's eye sockets felt slightly hot.

He said hoarsely: "Okay."

The two left the manor together, and Feng Erbi accompanied him with a lantern.

That day, General Huo Da and General Huo Shao were beheaded, and their bodies were separated. It was extremely tragic, and even after death, there was no one willing to collect their bodies.

Because I dare not.

The two lay dead for three full days before someone finally couldn't stand it anymore and complained to the court, saying that the dead body would disturb the people and that the deceased was a big one, so it would be better to bury it in peace.

Therefore, the two generals didn't even have coffins for their deputy, they were only wrapped in old mats, and they were thrown in the barren mountains and ridges, dug and buried.

They made great achievements in battle during their lifetime, but they were so miserable after death.

Lou Yu had already sent someone to inquire about the place of burial, which was on the small mound at the back of the villa.

The outskirts are quiet and uninhabited, and occasionally a few crows can be heard, which is eerie.

The soles of the shoes creaked on the dry branches.

Lou Yu asked, "I only found out about the tombs of the two generals, but I don't know where the tombs of the two generals' wives are."

On the day the two generals were beheaded, the two wives hanged themselves because they could not bear the humiliation.

Huo Yan was knocked out by a surprise attack, and after waking up, he waited for the sale.

Originally, with his martial arts, he could sneak out, but unfortunately he was drugged, and his hands and feet were weak, just like fish on a chopping board, waiting to be slaughtered.

Huo Yan didn't know what happened to the remains of his mother and sister-in-law.

With grief in his heart, he responded, "Thank you."

Lou Yu sighed: "The court moved and the city changed, and the people scattered in the wilderness. All this chaos was caused by the disturbance of the courtiers, and the loyalists were wronged. If the two generals knew about Quan Xia, I'm afraid they would be heartbroken and hate Huang Quan."

The night wind howled, and the shadows of the trees rustled.

Huo Yan looked up at the sky, the crescent moon was like a full bow.

He thought of the scene where his father and elder brother taught him how to practice martial arts and archery, tears rolled down involuntarily, silently sinking into the barren loess.

Lou Yu sincerely sighed: "The sea is flowing, and the jade is broken together. I am like duckweed, like a marionette, how small and helpless."

"Your Highness."

Huo Yan called out in a low voice.

With red eyes, he stared unscrupulously at Lou Yu in the dark night.

"If you wish to get rid of the treachery and return the world to Haiyan and Heqing, Huo must be sincere and considerate, so don't go after death!"

He believes in the person in front of him, and he believes that Lou Yu has great ambitions.

He is willing to do his best to protect this rare and precious heart for the world, for the people, for the Huo family, and for himself.

Lou Yu glanced at him with a solemn expression: "Here we are."

Two tombs stood in front of them, with lush vegetation and dense insects and ants.

Lou Yu handed the sacrifice to Huo Yan, and stood aside with Feng Erbi quietly watching.

The long night is cold, how hard it is.

Huo Yan fell on the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.The young man wept bitterly, his normally straight shoulders trembling unceasingly.

The Huo family never shed tears easily, he couldn't disturb his father and elder brother, and couldn't let them watch jokes.

He only felt ashamed of his father and elder brother, because he couldn't even carve and erect a monument for them.

After an unknown amount of time, Huo Yan straightened up.

He has calmed down his grief, his eyes are firm and scorching: "Go back."

One day, he will openly erect a monument for his relatives, and one day, he will return the name of the Huo family!

After he got up, Lou Yu walked to the grave and bowed solemnly to show his respect.

Huo Yan's eyes trembled slightly.

The two returned to the manor together, and the moonlight seemed brighter when compared.

Lou Yu suddenly said: "In the 25th year of Zhengqian, all the vassal kings came to Beijing to celebrate their birthdays, and I was among them."

Sensing Huo Yan's gaze, he continued unhurriedly:

"That was my first time in Beijing, and I embarked on the journey with great expectations. After entering the capital, I found that the capital was better than I imagined, but worse than I imagined."

Huo Yan's expression was slightly concentrated, and he frowned and looked at Lou Yu, as if he was trying to identify something.

"It's so prosperous, yet so unbearable."

"Did you..." Huo Yan considered his words, "Did something bad happen?"

Lou Yu smiled lightly.

"Huo Jia Erlang is well-known in Jinghua, so I naturally wanted to make friends with him. They took me to meet him with kindness on their faces, and took me to make friends with him. It was here that I saw him for the first time."

He stopped and nodded, and looked at Huo Yan with shocked eyes.

"He is riding a steed, high-spirited, unrestrained, and his whole body seems to be shining. There are so many princes of aristocratic families around him, and they are all chasing him and complimenting him."

Huo Yan's voice was dry: "What about you?"

"I was held down in the mud. They laughed at me, mocked me, said that I was just the son of a little vassal prince, and actually tried to make friends with Mr. Huo, saying that I was not even worthy to carry shoes for Mr. Huo."

Dead silence.

"I was pressed in the mud, and I watched the horse getting closer and closer to me. It was really beautiful, more beautiful than all the horses I had ever seen."

Huo Yan clenched his fists, "I..."

He clearly remembered that when the emperor celebrated his birthday four years ago, he had no interaction with the vassals.

He didn't remember Prince Qing's son at all.

Lou Yu looked warm and peaceful, "You rode past us without looking at us."

"I... I don't know." Huo Yan lowered his head in embarrassment.

He could have saved him.

Maybe he saw it at the time, but he just thought it was a group of playboys playing around and didn't pay attention at all.

But he should have noticed!

Feng Erbi burst into tears suddenly, and said while crying: "Your Highness, slave, slave failed to protect you, you have suffered!"

What a disgrace and humiliation it is for the son of a majestic vassal king to be played with by a group of dudes and held in the mud!

Huo Yan finally figured out why after the Huo family lost power, Prince Qing, who had never known him before, would suddenly buy him back to his residence and torture him mercilessly.

Lou Yu smiled lightly and patted Huo Yan on the shoulder.

"The past is over, and I'm not telling you this today to settle old scores, but to say that those who supported you back then may not really want to support you; those who bullied me back then will still bully me.

"Once you and I enter Beijing, there will be some people who will hurt you, and there will be many people who play tricks on me, do you understand?"

Huo Yan's eyes were firm: "I understand."

He was not afraid of being ridiculed and insulted by others, but he suddenly felt sorry for the person in front of him.

Four years ago, he was only ten years old.

The last grievance in my heart has already sneaked into this endless night, and I can't find it anymore.

He asked persistently, "Did you also experience that scene four years ago?"

Lou Yu was stunned for a moment, and secretly laughed.

Is this person still firm in his symptoms of "one body, two souls"?

It's too cute.

Lou Yu nodded with a smile: "Yes, I saw it."

But it was seen from the memory of "Lou Yu".

Because of that experience, "Lou Yu"'s disposition changed drastically.

He was haunted by nightmares again and again.

Huo Yan's lofty arrogance, as well as that brave and unparalleled horse, made him constantly fall into the pain of being ashamed of himself.

He asked Guo Tang to help buy a good horse because of his obsession, and it was also because of his obsession that he bought Huo Yan to torture him in the mansion.

Huo Yan's eyes were complicated and unspeakable, a little dazed, and a little at a loss.

"Feel sorry."

"It's not you who are at fault, but those people." Lou Yu smiled casually, "Are you ready for entering the city tomorrow?"

Huo Yan: "..."

He cannot enter the city as a guard, but can only accompany Lou Yu as a "male slave".

Lou Yu laughed and joked, "Don't worry, I won't let others bully you."

Huo Yan: "..."

On the sixth day of September, at exactly the right time, Prince Qing's son appeared outside the Fengbo Pavilion in his chariot.

Feng Erbi secretly lifted the curtain to look out, and suddenly said pleasantly: "Your Highness, Zheng Yi and the others are really gone!"

"Well, Zheng Yi is aware of current affairs and will not force the Du family, so he can only choose to return."

Lou Yu straightened his sleeves, and his eyes fell on Huo Yan who was silent at the side.

The young man was slender and straight, dressed in cloud white, his black hair was only tied behind his head with a ribbon because he was not as weak as the crown, his eyebrows were handsome, and his temperament was fierce.

Huo Yan felt a little uncomfortable, and tried to divert his attention: "When the vassal king enters the capital, the soldiers can only stay near the residence, and are not allowed to get close to the imperial city and the palace city."

"No problem," Lou Yu said with a calm expression, "I will bring Erbi and you to live in the Hou's Mansion. After all, it is the Hou's Mansion, and idlers dare not mess around."

Feng Erbi pursed his lips, "Your Highness, forget about the Hou Mansion."

Lou Yu couldn't help laughing: "Why, do you have a problem with the county horse of our palace?"

"It's not that I have a problem with him, it's that he has a problem with our palace." Feng Erbi told the truth.

Lou Yu's smile remained the same, but his eyes were cold: "Whatever he does, as long as he doesn't bully my sister."

However, there was news from Anbu before that his eldest brother-in-law is a bit sanctimonious.

He must go and see for himself, if the eldest sister is bullied, they will not be able to think about it in the Marquis!

When a vassal king enters Beijing, according to the etiquette system, he must stay in the residence, but he can also choose his residence, but the accompanying soldiers must be stationed near the residence, and they are not allowed to move without authorization.

Those who choose another residence must go to the hotel to verify their identity before leaving the hotel.

In other words, even if Lou Yu wanted to borrow from his eldest brother-in-law's house, he had to go to the hotel first, sign and verify his identity before he could move around freely.

Prince Qing's son had not yet driven into the city, but a messenger reported to Ning Enhou's mansion.

Lou Quan immediately sent someone to prepare the car, and led a group of servants to the hotel to meet him.

It's just that someone got the news faster than her.

Before Lou Yu's car arrived at the hotel, he was stopped.

This is on the street, and there are many people watching.

Jiang Yong stepped forward immediately: "Who dares to stop the royal family from driving!"

"What are you! Go away!" the young man yelled contemptuously, his eyes fixed on the carriage, "Lou Yu, come out!"

Lou Yu: "..."

So arrogant, he likes it!

He is not afraid of trouble, but afraid of having nothing to do.The water in the capital is already very muddy, so what if he stirs it up again?

Lou Yu immediately lifted the curtain and came out with a domineering face: "Where is the farm slave who dares to disrespect this son!"

Hearing his words, everyone thought he was a ferocious and arrogant prince.

However, he saw that the young man had picturesque features, a tall and tall figure, and his appearance was rosy and moonlike, so noble that it is hard to describe.

Lou Yu glanced over, the boy blocking the road was riding a tall horse, surrounded by several other nobles from aristocratic families, and behind him were a group of guards.

Where is this blocking the way?This is clearly for a gang fight!

The young man blushed with anger: "How dare you scold me!"

"You were the one who scolded my son's guard first!" Lou Yu shouted angrily.

Jiang Yong's face was touched, it feels good that His Highness stands up for him!

But he also knew the seriousness. They had just entered Beijing, and it was really inappropriate to cause more troubles, so he secretly looked at Feng Erbi.

Seeing that Feng Erbi was also full of anger, looking like he was about to fight, he couldn't help shutting his mouth.

Forget it, His Highness is so intelligent, why should he come?
