For ten days, Lu Zhaoci put aside state affairs. Accompanied by Lu Chengzu, he visited all corners of Wuyi Mountain. Even Cui Yingying often went there together. It was a rare free time for a family of three. Lu Chengzu's face was also full of emotions.

Their smiles were flattering, and Lu Zhaoci and Cui Yingying also felt that they owed their son too much. They put aside other things and devoted themselves to accompany Lu Chengzu. This was a rare time. As for Lu Chengzu's marriage, Qin Jiudao and

So the folks in the village are there to help. Ten days have come quickly. Today, we are waiting for Lu Chengzu’s big day to get married. The entire mountain village is overjoyed. On the one hand, the village has not been so happy for a long time. On the other hand, it is also because Lu Chengzu is here.

The problem of reputation. The title of Lu Shanren is not something that ordinary people can get.

First bow to heaven and earth, second bow to husband and wife in the high hall." As the village elders sang loudly, Lu Chengzu got married and became the first prince to get married in the royal family of the Tang Dynasty.

Father, Queen and Mother." Lu Chengzu of the Quiet Room bowed before Lu Zhaoci under the red candle. He knew that his father and mother would return to Chang'an again after tomorrow. He didn't know when he would be able to see him again.

Father and mother.

Don't be like this." Lu Zhaoci said with a smile that he will naturally come here soon after the alliance has pacified Tibet. You will also be able to see your queen mother all day long."

Father will come here?" A look of surprise flashed on Lu Chengzu's face. Even Cui Yingying also had a look of surprise on her face. Although she could vaguely guess what Lu Zhaoci was thinking, these words came from Lu Zhaoci's mouth.

She was still surprised when she said it. Never in the past has an emperor abdicated the throne at such a young age to make way for the next emperor. There were a lot of jokes in the previous dynasty, but they were all caused by the emperor's stupidity. Even after he abdicated, he still lived in the palace.

He holds the power of the imperial court. Now Lu Zhaoci is only in his prime. Even if Tubo is not easily wiped out, it will only take a few years. By then, Lu Zhaoci may not even be forty years old. According to Lu Zhaoci's system, although he will not live a hundred years,

But it was still easy to pass the age of ten. I didn't expect Lu Zhaoci to abdicate so early. I really didn't expect it.

"Lian Lian has delayed a lot of things for state affairs this year," Lu Zhaoci said with a smile. Being an emperor was not what I thought. If Li Shi hadn't been jealous of Lian and forced Lian Lian, he wouldn't have raised an army to rebel. Now the great country is

You should go out for a walk. What's more, being an emperor for too long is not a good thing for the empire. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was very wise, but he still served as emperor for too long and eventually became mediocre. He actually believed that there were fairy mountains overseas and spent endless wealth.

Go looking for the Immortal Mountain. Knowing that there will be many difficulties in conquering the Western Regions, he went to conquer the Western Regions for a few bloody horses and ended up losing his troops. This is what happens after staying on the throne for a long time. Pride and arrogance have been lost to the throne. Lian does not want to

To be such a person and to have the throne only by giving up will make people lose their mind. Before Lian left, the Lianhui made a rule that the emperor should not reign for more than twenty years. In this way, the emperors of the Tang Dynasty are all young.

It can ensure its vitality and ensure that emperors will not become incompetent because they have stayed on the throne for too long."

Your Majesty is truly the Holy Lord," Cui Yingying said with sincere admiration. This kind of emperor is rare among hundreds of millions of people. There are very few who can retreat bravely. Moreover, the emperor kills and plunders the whole world on one person. Such an emperor is even more rare.

It is hard to find in ancient and modern times.

Okay, okay. Erlang, you go to the bridal chamber," Lu Zhaoci said with a smile. Unexpectedly, Lian's son also got married. Not long after, Lian also had a grandson."

I obey the order." Lu Chengzu's face turned red and he quickly retreated.

Erlang has grown up." Cui Yingying sighed deeply and said, "Chen and my concubine are also old."

It's not too early now, let's take a rest." Lu Zhaoci shook his head and said that he would go back to Chang'anling tomorrow. Wenwen sent someone to send a document saying that an envoy from Tubo was coming. The prince of the Tang Dynasty was not in a position to make a decision and was waiting to get back to him? And what else?

The five southwest troops have also come to Chang'an and will join forces to meet them for a while. As soon as this guy heard that Yang Zhou was eliminated by the alliance, the court gradually entered a stable state, and everyone came running. Hehe, what do you think I am in the Tang Dynasty?

?”

The Five Southwest Parts?" Cui Yingying frowned and said, that's a barbaric land. Why did this person come to the Tang Dynasty? Is it related to Li Yuanjia and Yang Zhou's rebellion?"

Hum, these guys took advantage of Li Yuanjia's rebellion and jointly sent troops to the southwest to hold back the soldiers and horses marching in the southwest. If Xu Shiji hadn't marched faster and wiped out Li Yuanjia in a short time, I don't know what half of the country in the southwest would have been like now.

After Li Yuanji died and the Central Plains was about to regain peace, this guy was scared. He was afraid that the United Nations would settle accounts with them, so he sent people to Chang'an to seek friendship. How can such a good thing happen in the world? It is simply a delusion." Lu Zhaoci's face was full of murderous intent.

Most of the founding monarchs were extremely strong-willed and could not tolerate the slightest bit of sand in their eyes. The five southwestern tribes almost bullied themselves. How could Lu Zhaoci spare them so easily?

Your Majesty's domestic rebellion has not ended yet. The general's troops are still in Goguryeo. Although the rebellion has not had much impact on the court, many people have been affected. It would be inappropriate to send troops to attack the five southwest tribes at this time.

?Cui Yingying persuaded carefully.

The Lianhe naturally knows that. If the Lianhe sets out to conquer Tubo and the five southwest regions so quickly, it will be overestimating its own capabilities and treating the domestic people as pigs and dogs. Not only will the common people be opposed, but so will the civil and military officials." Lu Zhao

Ci shook his head and said, wait for a while. Go back and see this guy first. Haha, I heard the letter from the wooden text saying that Tubo actually wanted to marry Lian and marry Lian's princess. This is simply a delusion. Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty,

Nowadays, the barbarian tribe that Lian Shi has married to others and has married off his daughter is a barbarian tribe. Do you really think that Lian Lian has no power to fight back?"

Didn't the other party see this clearly? "Diao" Cui Yingying's face also flashed with a hint of worry. It would be bad for the court to send troops at this time.

The Tang Empire is not the former Han Dynasty Lian, nor Liu Bang, nor Liu Che. A small Tubo is not the Huns of the past." Lu Zhaoci snorted and said that even the Turkic League did not look down on it, let alone a small one.

Tubo. If he wants to fight, I will fight. Of course we can't invade the grassland, but it's also impossible for them to invade the territory of the Tang Dynasty. I believe that the soldiers of the Alliance will stop the Tubo attack." Cui Yingying's face showed a strange look after hearing this.

But the color stopped talking.

I remember hearing a joke before that among Chinese officials, the first thing they fear is their superiors, the second thing they fear are foreigners, such as Tubo and other countries in the Western Regions, and the least fearful thing is their own people. This is also the case in Lian Watch. This is true in the DPRK.

People are just afraid of a small country like Tubo. They think they are powerful just like the people of the Han Dynasty were afraid of the Huns." A sneer appeared at the corner of Lu Zhaoci's mouth. He couldn't help but think of the world where he was once the first official among the people.

What they are afraid of are foreigners. The second thing they are afraid of is ethnic minorities. As for others, including Han people or ordinary people, they are the objects of discrimination. For Lu Zhaoci, anything can be cut off, but the backbone of the nation cannot be cut off. At that time, the Chinese people

The backbone has been broken. Lu Zhaoci was just an ordinary and ordinary person before. He can't change everything, but in this era, he is the supreme emperor and can change everything. For him, no matter how the other party threatens, Han chauvinism is

The core of the empire. If he doesn't accept it, he will be beaten to become the backbone of the Han nation. He doesn't mind being a silent emperor and is not afraid of how he will be recorded in the history books in the future.

"Well, Your Majesty, it's getting late. Please take a rest." Cui Yingying's face flashed with a hint of worry. For the queen, she cannot interfere in political affairs in the harem, but she is concerned about her husband. Although the current situation seems to be dominated by the Tang Dynasty,

Advantages, but the same Tang Dynasty could not withstand the Tubo attack in a short period of time. It is no wonder that Lu Zhaoci did not want to be the emperor, but the emperor was very tired, especially the founding monarch. He had to face countless conspiracies and tricks.

The environment at home and abroad was complicated. But she was just a woman. All a woman could do was to stabilize the harem and make the emperor have no worries. She stood up and served Lu Zhaoci to go to bed to rest. The next morning, as soon as it got light, Lu Chengzu and his wife got up and went to Lu Zhaoci.

When Ci and his wife paid tribute to Zhang Xiaoyu, it was like they had entered the Lu family's house. Although Cui Yingying was slightly dissatisfied, a smile appeared on her face when she saw this situation.

Erlang, although our family comes from a good background, your father and I are just from a side family, so we don't care about the marriage between this family. According to the previous ideas of your mother and I, we would just let you marry an ordinary woman.

." Lu Zhaoci sighed deeply and said, "As for your brother, there is nothing you can do. The situation is such that the court also needs balance. What's more, I have to admit that your brother is better than you when it comes to the art of the emperor."

many."

Erlang understands." Lu Chengzu showed a smile on his face and said that Erlang is very happy that his father's career has a successor. Erlang disappointed his father and mother back then."

Erlang, as long as you are safe, your father and I will be very happy." Cui Yingying said with tears in her eyes. You have a gentle personality and Xiao Yu is also gentle and pleasant. When we are together, we must support each other and never give up. You must not underestimate Xiao Yu because of your family background.

.”

Erlang understands." Lu Chengzu nodded, but Zhang Xiaoyu, who was kneeling beside him, didn't know what her husband and her parents-in-law were talking about. Although she was Xiaojiabiyu, she also vaguely felt that her husband seemed to be very extraordinary, at least for the imperial court.

These two words are "extraordinary" and cannot be mentioned by ordinary people. It's just that she is timid." She could only listen quietly on the side without daring to interrupt.

After Xiaoyu, Erlang will be handed over to you. My mother-in-law is far away in Chang'an and can't take care of him, so I'll bother you." Cui Yingying looked at Zhang Xiaoyu complicatedly. "Zhang Xiaoyu also had a bad background, but his current appearance made her feel happy. Maybe she really

Can you take care of your son?

Xiaoyu doesn't dare." Zhang Xiaoyu's face turned red with embarrassment and his voice was as low as a mosquito. He lowered his head and did not dare to look at Cui Yingying.

"Okay, Erlang, help Xiaoyu get up." Lu Zhaoci said with a smile. After the national situation is stabilized, his father will come to Wuyi Mountain. The scenery at the foot of Wuyi Mountain is so good. I like it here.

If father comes, Erlang will make arrangements in advance." Lu Chengzu said quickly.

Your Majesty, Erlang, and my concubine here are worried about safety issues." Cui Yingying sighed deeply and said that although Jiangnan has been pacified now, it is undeniable that there are still remnants of rebels here. The most important thing is that Jiangnan is still undeveloped and there are many bandits.

The mountain village here is peaceful and peaceful, but there is no protective power. What should we do if there is a bandit or something?"

Lu Zhaoci's expression changed and she had to admit that what Cui Yingying said was true. Although she was talking about Lu Chengzu, she was actually talking about herself. Once she abdicates and lives in seclusion, there will inevitably be loopholes in the defense around her. She is still good at least.

Despite his martial arts skills, Lu Chengzu was a weak scholar.

Mother Erlang has been here for so long but nothing like this has ever happened. Mother, don’t worry." Lu Chengzu consoled him.

What do you know?" Cui Yingying frowned and said, "Not now" doesn't mean there won't be in the future. What's more, there is still a banditry in Jiangnan. Even in the peaceful era, it is inevitable that there will be banditry. What if there is no protection in the small mountain village? Just a weak scholar like you.

Can you resist this gangster?"

Mother-in-law, my father is still brave." Zhang Xiaoyu said anxiously.

"Xiao, if Yu is not safe, how can you let your mother-in-law rest assured that you two are here?" Cui Yingying said dissatisfied. She glanced at Lu Zhaoci again and waited for the other party's decision.

What father and mother said is exaggeration. Don’t worry about it, father.” Lu Chengzu said with a forced smile on his face. The world is already at peace. Wuyi Mountain is beautiful. Where can there be any banditry? Mother is too careful. Maybe there is no place in the house that is heavily defended.

Now that I feel safe, will my mother be stimulated in Wuhu?"

You can say the word "presumptuous". Although Lu Zhaoci cursed, there was a smile on his face. He stretched out his right hand and hit Lu Chengzu hard on the forehead. Zhang Xiaoyu was surprised.

Okay, so are you, father and son. Don't what I said make sense?" Cui Yingying said dissatisfiedly that the scenery here is good, but it is safe."

This matter is also a problem." Lu Zhaoci said with a hint of embarrassment on his face. Otherwise, open an academy at the foot of Wuyi Mountain and call it Wuyi Academy. In this way, Erlang can study here and study. Secondly, there will be an academy.

The defense force here can also be increased a lot. The scenery of Wuyi belongs to the world and cannot be occupied by our family. I think as long as there is an academy here, the literary style will flourish. When we come to settle here, there will be a lot of excitement.

Oh, maybe Mr. Ju and the others like to come here too."

Wuyi Academy? Father’s idea is good. Erlang likes it very much.” Lu Chengzu’s eyes lit up when he heard this and couldn’t help but said. This will also be convenient for Erlang to study in the future.”

Okay, it's settled." Lu Zhaoci said that Chen Guangrui will be here soon and I will ask him to take charge of this matter. Then Chen Guangrui has never seen you, and your appearance has changed a lot outside this year, and so has he.

If he is the current number one scholar to build Wuyi Academy, he will surely bring a certain reputation to Wuyi Academy."

Chen Guangrui?" Lu Chengzu asked in surprise.

He is about to enter the Xuande Hall." Lu Zhaoci sighed and said that there is one less person in the Xuande Hall. Ke Ming passed away and his father's side seems to be missing something. Chen Guangrui is talented, intelligent, literary and martial, and the true biography of Yin Kaishan allowed him to enter the Xuande Hall.

It is also possible. The auxiliary ministers of Xuande Palace cannot all be old, and young people must be selected to replace the old and the new. This is an unchanging principle. Then I don’t know how many people will follow me in the future, veterans.

Around me, Qin Qiong has also passed away and Cheng Yaojin is also old."

Father, don't worry." Lu Chengzu didn't know how to persuade Lu Zhaoci, so he could only say that he heard that Taoist Sun had returned to Chang'an. Mr. Ling and others would definitely live a long life with Taoist Sun by their side."

Haha, if that's what you think, that's fine." Lu Zhaoci smiled and shook his head, saying that life, old age, illness and death are all human beings, and living well is the most important thing.

It's time for the master to hit the road." Just as Lu Chengzu was about to say something, he saw Qin Jiudao walking in from outside.

Qin Jiudao left a capable person here to serve Erlang. Lu Zhaoci thought for a while and said, build a fort and I will come here in the future."

I obey." Qin Jiudao responded quickly without daring to neglect.

Erlang is going back to Chang'an as his father." Lu Zhaoci sighed deeply and said that you should take good care of yourself at the foot of Wuyi Mountain. You should also take good care of Xiao Yu. You should also study well and go out."

Erlang takes good care of his mother and prays for you in Chang'an." Cui Yingying's eyes were red and tears were flowing out.

Farewell to father and mother." Lu Chengzu knelt on the ground and sobbed. Although Zhang Xiaoyu didn't know why, he still knelt down to bid farewell to Lu Zhaoci and his wife. (
