Happy days are like running water, slipping by silently.

On the twentieth day of the first lunar month, the Zhenbei Army assembled at the west gate of the capital, followed their victorious general with a chilling and mighty spirit, and prepared to embark on the journey of defending their home and country.

The sun was shining brightly, and Lu Yuanchang, dressed in military uniform, accepted Emperor Zhengshuo's tiger talisman on the platform.

"General Zhengxi, the frontier of my Great Zhou, please." Emperor Zhengshuo solemnly handed the Tiger Talisman to Lu Yuanchang's raised hands.

"The last general will be willing to sacrifice his life and live up to the trust of the emperor!" Lu Yuanchang replied loudly.

"Let's go, take care of everything!" At this time, Emperor Zhengshuo had both the majesty of the emperor and the care of his relatives. In front of the people, he was extremely popular.

Lu Yuanchang got on his horse and took her master of all battles to the battlefield.

Among the crowded crowd, the servants of the Lu Mansion surrounded Gu Xiaofu and Guo'er, and quietly saw Lu Yuanchang off.When Lu Yuanchang walked in front of them, he didn't show his love for his sons and daughters. What he wanted to say and what he wanted to do had been arranged a few days ago. She walked away with peace of mind, because behind her was Gu Xiaofu's support. with.

"Mother, father is mighty." Guo'er whispered in Gu Xiaofu's ear.

Gu Xiaofu looked at the girl who was full of admiration, and couldn't help smiling lightly. She pinched Guo'er's little hand with her jade hand, waved it to Lu Yuanchang, and said silently with red lips, "Take care."

Lu Yuanchang nodded slightly, and walked away with guilt towards his wife and daughter, endless emotion, and ambition that he no longer wanted to hide.

Yes, she, who has been pushed forward by fate, is tired of being passive. This time, she is no longer cowardly, no longer evasive, she does not want to bow down to others, and she does not want her family to be threatened with her life. To get out of the predicament, she must live a chic and comfortable life.

Due to the urgent military situation, Lu Yuanchang marched very fast, and the state capitals along the way fully cooperated with the supply of food, grass and supplies. Whenever the Zhenbei Army passed through the city, the people in the city welcomed it. In Zhongzhou, in Yunxiang, and in Ganzhou, the Zhenbei Army's prestige It was extremely loud, and the strict military discipline of the Zhenbei Army was more valued by the common people.

To say something rebellious, the people in these areas only know Lu Yuanchang, but not Emperor Zhengshuo. This is Lu Yuanchang's outstanding achievements in regaining the lost land and trying his best to calm the people, and it is also her capital.In the capital, the credit for supporting the new monarch is shared by everyone, so in these areas, Lu Yuanchang's military achievements are unmatched.

When Lu Yuanchang passed through Yunzhou and entered Ganzhou, a grand queen canonization ceremony was held in the capital, which was more luxurious than New Year's Eve.

From the Prince's Mansion of Wuwei County to the Imperial Palace, the road is paved with red carpets. On both sides of the road, there is a martial law every two feet, and there is a palace lantern every five feet.Gorgeous ribbons separate the people all the way, but the people in the distance can clearly see the sedan chair carried by the queen by 32 Chinese palace people. The outside is sprayed with gold, and the sedan chair is inlaid with various gemstones. Especially the huge night pearl on the top of the sedan chair exudes a faint brilliance, suppressing all the brilliance around it.

The long welcoming team walked for an hour before arriving at the Zhengyang Gate. The musicians played together to congratulate Wang Chao and several brothers, and sent Wang Min inside the Zhengyang Gate to the clan's hands. Led by the clan relatives, they walked slowly to the Zhengde Hall.

Emperor Zhengshuo had been waiting at the gate of the main hall for a long time, and when he saw Wang Min finally came, Emperor Zhengshuo walked down the Danbi and personally welcomed Wang Min into the main hall.

The music is changed, the music of the canonization of the queen is played, the Minister of Rites reads the edict of the queen, and Emperor Zhengshuo personally puts on Wang Min the symbol of the queen, the phoenix crown!The two joined hands, sat on the throne together, and accepted the kneeling of the officials.

On Emperor Zhengshuo's ugly face, there was a faint smile, which made the scars on his face even more terrifying.For him, marrying Wang Min was to win over the Wang family and to counterbalance the Song family and the Lu family. Even if Wang Min was notorious before, he didn't care.

As for Wang Min, she also smiled dignifiedly, and her smile was particularly coquettish.Because she entered the palace not for the queen's throne or family glory, everyone hinted to her that the third princess had returned to the harem, and after she entered the palace, she would be able to stay with the third princess together and never be separated.

In this way, the two people in the same bed and different dreams formed the most honorable couple in the world.

The endless etiquette is very tiring, but Gu Xiaofu has always insisted. As a high-ranking wife and Wang Min's cousin, Gu Xiaofu is undoubtedly the best person to accompany Wang Min.Gu Xiaofu was uncharacteristically this time, she was no longer as lofty as usual, but tried her best to help Wang Min deal with her life, so as to ease the relationship with Wang Min.

Everything is just for Lu Yuanchang, just for Lu Yuanchang, and their family.

And Wang Min, after experiencing so many ups and downs, finally became sensible.Under the constant persuasion of Wang Chao and the princess of Wuwei County, she deeply understood that the power from the Lu family is extremely powerful.Only when her queen's throne is secure, can she and the three princesses stay together in the palace. To keep the queen's throne, in addition to the strong backing of the Wang family, it also needs military representatives like the Lu family.Therefore, Wang Min treats Gu Xiaofu with extra courtesy, and is the only reward for Guo'er.

The magnificent banquet lasted for seven days before it came to an end. At this time, Gu Xiaofu was very reluctant to give up, and ordered Lu Wu to personally escort Guoer back to Luoxi Village. At this time, Gu Xiaofu also understood Lu Yuanchang It is the safest thing for Guoer to be in Luoxi Village and be watched by the old man.Even if she and Lu Yuanchang failed, Emperor Zhengshuo would not be able to find Guoer.

When Guo'er left, she was extremely wronged. The usually steady little girl cried into tears at this moment, and she kept saying that her parents didn't want her.Gu Xiaofu's heart was broken, and she sent her again and again until she was thirty miles away from the city, and then she went back to the mansion under the persuasion of Song Wenji and others, and Gu Xiaofu fell ill as soon as she returned to the mansion.

This worried Lu Er and everyone in the Song family. Everyone pointed at the child in Gu Xiaofu's stomach. If something happened, who would tell Lu Yuanchang!

After Wang Min knew about it, he sent an imperial physician to stay in Taipinghou's mansion, and took good care of him every day. It wasn't until the spring was warm and the flowers bloomed that Gu Xiaofu was relieved. She entered the palace to thank her. friend.It's just that Wang Min has been searching secretly in the palace, but has not found the third princess. In some cryptic words, Gu Xiaofu learned the news, but she didn't say anything, just comforted Wang Min in whispers.

Lu Yuanchang arrived in Gaefeng City, an important city in the western region in mid-March, but compared to her hasty march, Lu Yuanchang did not send troops to wipe out the enemy immediately after entering the city, but let the soldiers rest in peace. When the army came to attack, they only used bows and arrows to retreat from the enemy, and it was strictly forbidden to go out of the city to fight.Three or five times like this, Xixia lost a lot of people.

The walls of Liefeng City are extremely tall. It is a military city carefully built by Guo Daming back then. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack.If Xixia wanted to enter the territory of Da Zhou, they had to break Gaefeng City.After the king of Xixia learned that Lu Yuanchang's Zhenbei army had arrived, he knew that Lu Yuanchang was cunning and the Zhenbei army was brave, so he increased his troops by [-], which made the atmosphere on the border even more tense.

"General, I have only 20 soldiers in the northern part of the town, and the garrison here is only [-], and there are nearly [-] soldiers in Xixia. I'm afraid this battle will be difficult~" Feng Huai found out about the military situation, and he was very impressed with the disparity in military strength. is worry.

"Who said that we are going to fight Xixia, and we will be exempted from the battle. His 20 troops are at the border, and the supply of food, grass and supplies is difficult. If it drags on for three or five months, he will withdraw his troops." Lu Yuanchang said nonchalantly.

"But the emperor keeps urging the army to defeat the enemy, and we can't afford to delay~" Feng Huai was very entangled. He naturally knew that he couldn't touch it head-on, but the emperor's order must not be violated.

"The general will be outside, and the emperor's order will not be granted, otherwise, we will disarm and let the emperor go to fight." Lu Yuanchang waved his hand and ordered Liang Bao to arrange defense, and he went to meet the nobles of the western region for a drink.

As far as the western region is concerned, the nobles have long been provoked by Guo Daming to arouse strong opposition, but they did not expect that Guo Daming would fail when he entered Beijing, and the ducks flew away like this.Since Emperor Zhengshuo came to the throne, life in the western region has been quite difficult because of Guo Daming's relationship. The nobles have been exploited wantonly by the court, and even the taxes of the people are much higher than those in other regions.The powerful nobles in the Western Territory hated Emperor Zhengshuo, but now they are weak and can only swallow their anger.

At their most difficult time, Lu Yuanchang, a celebrity in the imperial court, the winner of the rebel faction, and the most powerful general of the Great Zhou Dynasty came, which made the nobles of the western region go crazy with joy.Look at the aristocrats in the northern border, who follow Lu Yuanchang to eat and drink spicy food. Their titles have been promoted, they have more land, and they have become more powerful. They are too jealous.As for Lu Yuanchang's character, the nobles of the western region have inquired about him very clearly. He is kind and righteous. As long as you follow her, she will protect you from the wind and rain. The brand of rebels on their bodies can be easily dispelled by a word from Lu Yuanchang. Eliminate, don't follow her with anyone.

Guo Daming's defeat was attributed to Lu Yuanchang's bravery, but the nobles in the western region don't care about this old enemy. They only hate Emperor Zhengshuo. Who would let Emperor Zhengshuo automatically become a target when he ascends the throne?

After Lu Yuanchang arrived in Gale City, apart from stepping up his defense, he spent the rest of his time trying to win over the nobles of the western region. The two sides hit it off, and in just two months, Lu Yuanchang had attracted many people. give up.

However, Lu Yuanchang did not send troops, but he could not offend Emperor Zhengshuo.The pond report is submitted from time to time. Today, in a small battle, wipe out [-] enemies, and self-injury [-], and win a small battle.This kind of pond report kept spreading to the imperial court, and sometimes it was necessary to ask for food. Emperor Zhengshuo made a good deal. After Lu Yuanchang arrived in Liefeng City, the Zhenbei Army lost nearly ten thousand, and Xixia lost two to thirty thousand troops, which is not bad. .How could Emperor Zhengshuo have imagined that these military reports were all nonsense, and Xixia was going crazy because Lu Yuanchang didn't fight.

Unknowingly, it was summer in the capital, and Gu Xiaofu was wearing a thin skirt, reading Lu Yuanchang's family letter on the porch, with a sweet smile on her face from time to time.

"My wife, Lu Zhixing bows down. The summer in the capital is very strong, and the fire is scorching hot. Zhixing is in the army. He often misses his beloved wife and children. I don't know if the children are still well-behaved? Command for me. I have an army of [-], and I will practice it from time to time. It will be of great use in the next year. I have accepted the envoy sent by my wife. Don't worry about your wife. I heard that Wang Chao's cousin received [-] elite soldiers, and the emperor intends to take them back for his own use. I don't know the details? I also heard that the emperor recruited soldiers from all over the country, and the number of recruits reached more than [-]. I don't know the details. I am in a border area, and I often miss my wife. Yu Huai, everyone invites to a banquet, I only drink wine and enjoy music, I am not accompanied by slaves, here is a rumor that I am afraid of my wife, every time I hear it, I am honored..."

Gu Xiaofu looked at it, then smiled and shed tears, stroking her half-round belly with her hand, and said softly: "Daddy misses us, she is living a miserable life."

"Ma'am, it's windy, let's go inside." It was already a woman's screen, because Lu Yuanchang was not around, she made an exception to stay by Gu Xiaofu's side to serve her.

Gu Xiaofu was supported by Ping'er, walked into the room slowly, and said after thinking: "Ping'er, ask Lu Er to pass the sign, I want to see the Queen."

"Ma'am, you are heavy..."

"Don't worry, I'm in good health. This child is as good as his older sister. She doesn't make noise." Gu Xiaofu interrupted Ping'er's advice and insisted on entering the palace. She saw Lu Yuanchang's sweet talk, and Lu Yuanchang She has seen what worries her even more. She must find out how many soldiers and horses the emperor has in his hands.

Gu Xiaofu asked Ping'er to light a fire, and personally burned Lu Yuanchang's family letter. Although they communicated in secret language, they had to destroy it for safety.

While Gu Xiaofu was changing clothes by Pinger, she secretly calculated.Lu Yuanchang is currently relying on the elite soldiers in his hands, but Emperor Zhengshuo is already dissatisfied with Lu Yuanchang's passive response to the battle.If Emperor Zhengshuo was in charge of the army himself, then Lu Yuanchang's advantage would be gone, and what Gu Xiaofu was most afraid of was that Emperor Zhengshuo would order Lu Yuanchang to return to Beijing and send others to the west to fight. All Chang's previous efforts were in vain.
