Chapter 46
In a dark dungeon.

"Nanzheng, untie and send him away overnight!"

There was a knocking sound in the dungeon.

"Thank you Miss Chu, we know we were wrong!"

"In the future, we will never listen to Chu Biguang's instigation!"

……

Chu Qingyun didn't call for a stop, and she didn't speak until a dozen times later, "The mistake you two committed today, even if your heads were beheaded, it should be done. But there is a reason for your incident, today's whipping will be justified. Punishment at that time."

Chu Qingyun continued: "I have a way to solve your current predicament, you are willing to try."

"We are willing, as long as Feng'er is not wronged, I am willing to do anything."

"My Chu family has a shop in Dongjian. If you want to, you can start from the bottom of the bottom. Although you can't get rich, but work hard, you will have no problems in life. When you go, you will be accepted and no one will laugh at you. you."

"Would you like to?"

Chu Qiufeng stared blankly at Chu Qingyun. It is a big taboo to make a big funeral, and it will affect the luck of the family. Why, she wants to let them go and help them?
Chu Qingyun glanced at him: "Why? Don't want to?"

"No...no!" Chu Qiufeng's face flushed suddenly, and it took him a long time to say three words: "Thank you!"

Chu Qingyun nodded, and her expression returned to the indifference when they first met: "Remember, without my permission, you must never associate with the Chu family in Dongjian. If I find out, it's not a matter of a whip!"

"Yeah." Chu Qiufeng lowered his head and said nothing, without the arrogance of that day.

Chu Qingyun threw up her sleeves and left. The Chu family in Dongjian will have to clean up sooner or later, and these two people will be useful if they keep them.

……

As soon as the first month came out, King Nanmu returned home with a great victory.

Above the court hall, Emperor Shengde went to court early, which was rare, with a happy face.

King Ximu not only recaptured the two cities, but also robbed the grain and horses of the Hu people. This battle was won beautifully.

All the officials in the court were busy congratulating His Majesty and King Ximu, and there was a rare harmony in the court.

King Ximu didn't participate in the party disputes, so he nodded in response, and didn't say much. After the waves of congratulations subsided, he immediately saluted the emperor. There was not much joy on his face, but he was more cautious. cautious.

"Excuse me. I am very pleased that Tian Xiao has conquered the lost ground. He is worthy of being my first general in Dazhao." Emperor Shengde raised his hand to King Nanmu who was about to salute.

Emperor Shengde seemed to be a proud winner, and waved his hand: "King Ximu must be rewarded heavily!"

"Tian Xiao, whatever you want, just ask!"

King Ximu humbly said: "Your Majesty is wise, I only win battles under His Majesty's protection, and I dare not ask for any rewards."

"Others, what's your opinion?"

Elder Wei suddenly stood up: "Your Majesty, I have a little humble opinion."

"speak!"

Elder Wei glanced coldly at his surroundings: "Now that General Chu has died in battle, and there are no good generals in the army, it is better to hand over the two armies to King Ximu for the time being."

"Two armies?"

"Oh my god, that's more than half of Dazhao's military power?"

"This……"

Emperor Shengde's expression sank immediately, and he looked at Wei Lao with inquiry in his eyes.

As if he didn't see it, Elder Wei continued to speak: "Dongjian soldiers can't be unmanned and scattered in a group. Please think twice, Your Majesty."

Emperor Shengde clenched his fists tightly, he knew what Old Wei said was right, but...that was half of Dazhao's military power!

The whole court hall was as quiet as a deserted temple. After an unknown amount of time, Emperor Shengde suddenly sighed, raised his head and said with a dark face, "Tian Xiao is my right arm and the arm of the country. Steward!"

Elder Wei and some senior ministers knelt on the ground and shouted: "Your Majesty is wise!"
The ministers whispered.

There was no joy on Lu Jinzhou's face. It should be a good thing for his father to lead the two armies, but it is not easy to be the commander of the two armies.

This means that the father holds the military power of the entire Dazhao border in his hands. It is impossible for Emperor Shengde to trust the Feng family so far, and he will definitely weaken the Lu family in other places!

I don't know how long it took, but the discussion in the court gradually subsided.

Emperor Shengde suddenly said slowly: "A few days ago, there were rumors in the palace that Jinzhou and the only daughter of the Chu family were walking very close."

Lu Jinzhou choked for breath, what Emperor Sheng De said...

You must know that soldiers on the border have always been stubborn, especially Chu Hancheng's Dongxing army. It is difficult to accept new generals without going through life and death.

If he had a close relationship with Chu Qing Yunzhen, the father would soon take over the Dongxing army for his own use, but if there was no such relationship, his father would have resistance in commanding the Dongxing army, as long as Emperor Shengde would do something For other means, it is enough to take back the general's power.

Emperor Shengde didn't give them a chance to speak, and continued to press, "Tian Xiao, speaking of it, General Chu had a very good relationship with you when he was alive."

Lu Tianxiao answered cautiously: "There is such a thing, but as early as ten years ago, the Chu family moved to Zhongzhou, and they stopped seeing each other."

"Isn't it a lie not to communicate?" Yan Shangshu stood up and spoke righteously.

Lu Tianxiao was an upright general of the first rank, the only king with a different surname at the time, and it was not yet his turn to be questioned by a minister. His eyebrows and eyes were swept away: "Master Yan, are you suspecting that I, Lu Tianxiao, are forming a clique for personal gain?"

"General Lu, shouldn't you be suspicious? It is a fact that Lu Jinzhou personally vindicated Chu Qingyun."

Lu Jinzhou loosened his clenched fists, and said with a bit of unruliness: "Yan Shangshu was joking, your majesty is wise and has made a decision about the Chu family's affairs, and I have never had the slightest selfishness."

In the court hall, there was no movement, and most of the ministers kept their heads safe and kept their heads down like turtles.

After a cup of tea, Emperor Shengde probably felt that the beating was enough, and said softly: "Jinzhou is a big one in my opinion, how could it be possible to do such a thing, Yan Shangshu, I really worry too much."

Emperor Sheng Wu was sometimes tender, and sometimes his words were hidden. The father and son were walking on thin ice, but they still had a smile on their faces.

Yan Shangshu stood aside, speechless, but dissatisfied. He planned to recommend his own person to go up this time, but unexpectedly, he was in vain.

"Jinzhou, your father has a big reward, how can you not, tell me what you want?"

Lu Tianxiao seemed to have a premonition, turned his head slightly, looked at his son, and shook his head slightly.

"Your Majesty can let him hone in the Southern Forbidden Army, which is already the best reward for him."

"Jinzhou hasn't spoken yet." His Majesty rolled his eyes at Lu Tianxiao, and his voice suddenly became low: "Lu Jinzhou."

"The minister is here." Lu Jinzhou's eyes were burning. After the defeat of Su Chongde, the position of the leader of the Northern Forbidden Army has been vacant, and many people are eyeing it.

Emperor Wude seemed to have seen Lu Jinzhou's heart, and said leisurely: "You have fought with the King of Nanmu in the South and North for several times, and you have the demeanor of the King of the Nanmu. How about commanding all the Praetorian Guards?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your gift."
