Xuancheng finally chose not to return to Chang'an.

Outside the city of Youbeiping County, when he said this to Lu Guang, Lu Guang was greatly surprised.

"Aren't you going back?"

"In this battle, although His Majesty ordered me to conquer the governor, after all, you killed Fu Zhong. I think I shouldn't go back."

"Don't say that, Your Majesty will never treat you like that, Fu Zhong should be damned. Well, let's not talk about him now, why? If you don't go back, no matter what, we won the battle."

Xuan Cheng didn't speak, he called Murong Yong and Lian Chengyi, "You two don't need to go back to Chang'an with the army, stay by my side."

Murong Yong nodded, even Cheng Yi had some doubts, but he didn't express his doubts.

Lu Guang tore his sleeves, "Say it clearly, otherwise, I will not be punished when I go back. Your Majesty ordered you to conquer the governor. Now that the battle has been won, you, the commander, will not go back. How about letting us go back?" Facing Your Majesty."

Xuancheng squinted at him, "You really want to know?"

"You need to know." Lu Guang gave a firm gaze.

... "Okay, don't regret it." A wicked smile suddenly appeared in Xuancheng's eyes.

... "What Fu Zhong said before his death is all true, and Your Majesty and I..."

"Enough," Lu Guang suddenly rebuked loudly.

"say no more."

"Can't you bear it? Lu Guang, the sun in your heart, he doesn't shine all over the world..."

Lu Guang took a few steps back, pointing at him with trembling fingers, "You...you are..."

"Unreasonable." He gritted his teeth, as if venting the anger in his chest.

Murong Yonghe even drew his sword to protect Xuancheng, "General Polu, please go back."

Xuancheng stood between the two of them and said brazenly, "Go back and tell your Sun, I am not his younger brother, so don't look for him anymore, his younger brother is already dead."

There was a blazing fire in Lu Guang's eyes, but before he drew his sword to face each other, the two people around Xuancheng escorted his master away.

The backs of the three finally went away and disappeared under the bright sunshine of June. Lu Guang forgot how to chase them. He could mobilize the soldiers and horses here, but he still didn't do that in the end.

The sword in his hand fell to the ground, and he has been standing under the not-so-high city wall. Finally, finally, he turned around and entered the city in a daze.

At the end of June, Lu Guang led the anti-rebellion army to return to the court.

Fu Jian was not in good health that day, Prince Fu Hong went out of the city to meet him, but he didn't see his uncle, he was surprised at first, and then asked, Lu Guang didn't want to talk, he was very blocked, Fu Hong didn't ask any more questions, the army arranged After finishing, Lu Guang went to Xuanshi Hall to report the results to Fu Jian that night.

This is the countless times he has entered and exited here, but he has never been so difficult as today. He walked with great difficulty step by step, as if his feet were stuck by something, standing outside the Xuanshi hall, rustling inside. The candlelight flickered into his heart, and his eyes fell on the elegant curtains in the palace, and suddenly a disgusting feeling surged in his heart.

In the past, he had nothing to say about the two friends he had made in childhood. His father was their adviser and helped them win the world. He was unruly and unwilling to be imprisoned by the court and official circles. , traveled all over the country, walked through every inch of land in China, and even set foot on foreign lands. He used to farm in the countryside for several months. He became brothers and sisters with the people in the village, slept in the same room with those country people, and ate the same pot During the meal, he hung shoulders with the chiefs and patriarchs of foreign countries like relatives and friends, and he made friends all over the world.

But in his heart, there is only a high sun and a bright moon high in the night sky.

The sun shines on all beings.

The bright moon illuminates the road at night.

Although he knew the legend in their tribe, the custom of marrying relatives by blood, but his father said that it was a tradition thousands of years ago, so he never took it seriously, and occasionally he used it as a joke Two of his friends.

He said that people form a contract of brotherhood because they are not relatives or reasons. You are brothers, and there is no need to form any contract.

The palace door was finally opened, and Lu Guang stepped in with heavy steps.

The curtains in the hall are heavy, the light and shadow are dark, and the faint candlelight is flickering.

Nan'an closed the door of the hall and waited outside, so he walked forward alone. When he saw the person in the hall, all the anger and resentment in his heart disappeared without a trace.

This is his best friend, his sun.

So, he knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Lu Guang, pay my respects to Your Majesty."

No immediate response.

"Your Majesty, Lu Guang, pay my respects to Your Majesty."

"Where are you taking my brother?" After he repeated, a question rang in his ears.

"Your Majesty is incompetent and failed to bring Yang Pinggong back. Please punish him."

"What are you punishing? Did you lose my brother?"

Fu Jian came over, bent down and put his hands on his shoulders, "Get up, sit down and talk."

His tone seemed very calm, which was Lu Guang's judgment.

So he slowly got up from the ground and sat down about three steps away from the other party.

"What are you doing so far away from me? Come here and sit beside me." Fu Jian waved to him, and Lu Guang moved from the ground again, getting closer to him.

"Don't be so alienated from me. In the past, you would hang shoulders with me and have no birth."

"Your Majesty, it was all about my childhood, don't mention it anymore, now you are the king and I am the minister."

"You are all like this one by one, did I do something wrong?"

Hearing what he said, how can Lu Guang go against anything else? The time spent galloping on the grassland is indeed precious. There is no gift of monarch and minister, and no close or distant relatives. You can hook up with whoever you like, and whoever you fancy Just make friends directly, shoot and hunt together, and ride horses together. At that time, the sun was brilliant every day, and the land at that time was always flat and vast.

"Your Majesty, the minister is incompetent and cannot persuade Duke Yangping."

"Advice for what?"

Fu Jian stared into his eyes.

Lu Guang dodged for a while, and said in a low voice, "You...why? He doesn't want to come back, he doesn't listen to me anymore, those old days can never go back."

Fu Jian withdrew his eyes, looked down to the ground, his eyes were in a daze, "Yes, I can't go back, he is no longer my younger brother."

"In the past, he was so obedient, and he got what I said."

"Your Majesty." Lu Guang didn't want to listen to him reminiscing about the past, so he spoke boldly, "Why did Fu Zhong slander you and Yang Pinggong? Tell me, is there any... between you?"

"No." Fu Jian blurted out his rejection.

A wry smile curled up at the corner of his mouth, "You want this answer, right? Let me tell you, there has never been one."

Lu Guang breathed a sigh of relief, his chest suddenly opened up, and his heart was no longer blocked, but the next moment he heard a low voice from someone around him, "I forced him."

Lu Guang was stunned immediately, his heart seemed to be blocked by a knife, he was so startled and still alive, he doubted his own vitality.

"you……"

"You, Your Majesty..."

He was trembling and couldn't speak a complete sentence, "Your Majesty,... I always thought you were brothers..."

Fu Jian laughed at himself, "Isn't it?"

Lu Guang was speechless.

He didn't want to argue because, at this moment, he didn't want to talk at all.

He wanted to be blind, deaf and dumb, unable to hear, see, or speak. This was his only prayer at the moment.

However, these wishes will not come true, he can only listen to Fu Jian telling his thoughts to him alone.

"When I was young, I saved him and protected him. Since then, we have been inseparable. He stuck behind me, and I stood in front of him. Later, his courage became bigger and bigger. I blocked the sword, I did something wrong, my father punished me, he was punished with me, we knelt together, from dark to dawn, we said, this is sworn brotherhood, what could be sworn brotherhood? We are brothers , he suggested, just like father and mother, pray to God to bless us to be together forever, I said yes, in fact, who remembers what I said when I was a child? Yes, it is not only me who forgets, but also him. "

"You know, in the first year of Jianyuan, I took him to Yecheng. We met a young man in Luanhe. He saw it first. I stood behind him and watched him stare at him in a daze. , I took the first step, I thought, if it wasn't for my discovery, he should be staying in Yan country at this time, they will be together, I will lose my brother, and Yan country will not be gone, but I don't want to , no one can take away my younger brother, it is only my younger brother, why should it be distributed to others to enjoy it?"

"Your Majesty, don't talk anymore." Lu Guang held his head, his expression was extremely painful, "Please, don't talk anymore."

"I think it's unbelievable, absurd, and dirty. It's understandable that you own Murong Chong. People in the Jin Dynasty all did this. They had countless child prostitutes. Only aristocratic families have money to own them, but you can't. No... your brother, do you understand?"

Fu Jian grabbed his hand suddenly, as if being stimulated by something, and pinched it down cruelly. Lu Guang frowned in pain, "Why, what do you know? My brother, why can't you just give it to me? ah."

"His Majesty."

"Go, you go."

"Your Majesty..." Lu Guang earnestly said.

Fu Jian got up from the ground, rolled up his wide cuffs and wanted to leave, but his eyes stared fiercely, "My brother, no one is allowed." As the ending sound fell, he walked away, leaving Lu Guang sitting alone in a daze. In the hall, I couldn't slow down for a long time.

Taiwei Lu Polou died of illness not long after, Lu Guang sent people into the palace to report the funeral, Fu Jian sent Prince Fu Hong to offer condolences, but he himself hid in the palace all day, no one outside knew what he was doing , the political affairs of the court are handled by Fu Hong, the rules are well-regulated, and there is no chaos at all. Fu Hong will come to Ganquan Palace to report government affairs every day. After a few days, Fu Jian said that he does not need to report every day. Zhong heard Dao'an talk about Buddhism, and he had to refuse all outside government affairs, at least half a year, maybe even a year. Let Lu Guang assist in handling all outside government affairs.

Another imperial edict was issued, which clearly stated that Prime Minister Yangping Gong Fu Rong toured the northern kingdom for the king, and returned to the country after half a year. The position of prime minister was temporarily taken over by Lu Guang, who was acting as the prime minister.
