Father Liu and Mother Liu must be willing. There is nothing better than being able to watch their daughter move towards happiness.
Besides, the man’s elders all agreed with the matter, so why did they have any reason to refuse? They readily agreed.
Mrs. Yu also said: "This is good, this is good. When the time comes, Leizi will do it once in Jingzhou and once in the capital, so that relatives and friends on both sides will not have to run away and be busy and delay business. It is so convenient. Come on!”
Things were decided happily, and everyone started to get busy, choosing a date for the two couples, and then preparing the things needed for the wedding.
Although the elders have been planning these things since they got engaged, there are still a lot of things that need to be prepared. After all, they are two newlyweds doing it together, so there are even more things to prepare.
The Lu family has always treated everyone equally. They did not favor Lei Zi and prepare more for him just because they were closer to Lei Zi. The elders gave him things equally. As for Lei Zi and Lu Xiaoyang, they were willing What to buy for their future bride is their own business.
Lu Xiaoyang is a capable person. He has saved a lot of money over the years and prepares as many expensive things as possible for Liu Yuexiang. The same goes for Leizi. He also participates in the family business and pays every three months. There are dividends, and there is usually nothing to spend money on. This time, I plan to take out all the savings, and then leave the rest to Lotus for safekeeping.
The family began to prepare for the happy event, and Lu Xiaoyang went to the palace under the leadership of Lu Baichuan to meet the emperor and told him everything that happened in Xiteng.
The emperor was more interested in the seeds he brought back, and asked him to talk more about it, and finally asked: "Did Emperor Xiteng tell you personally that the national treasure of Xi Teng was stolen?"
Lu Xiaoyang nodded and said: "Yes, Princess Xiteng took great care of us in Xiteng because of the life-saving grace of the third aunt of the grass people. The Xiteng royal family also treated us as envoys. When he learned that we were coming back, he specially met with the grassroots, informed the grassroots of the matter, and asked the grassroots to tell the emperor."
The emperor nodded, Lu Baichuan had already told him about this, and he Just double check.
"What do you think of Emperor Xi Teng?"
Lu Xiaoyang thought for a while and said: "The common people have only met him three times, and each time his attitude towards the common people has been different. Very good, he does not have the majesty of being an emperor, but ordinary people always feel that he is not such a person."
The emperor became interested: "Oh? Why do you say this?"
"Princess Sitengkaya was forced to bring her for marriage before. She once said that her father treated her like jewels and treasures. She didn't dare to think that his father would be willing to send her for marriage, but she still sent her, and It seemed like he was a different person at that time, cold and ruthless.No salt enters. From this, the common people felt that Emperor Xi Teng was by no means as simple as what we saw. "
"He told the grassroots about the theft of the national treasure, maybe because he wanted the grassroots to bring back the trouble and change their target from Xi Teng to Beiyan. Even Cao Min was worried that if he told Cao Min that the national treasure was stolen on the surface, it might not necessarily be true if he secretly told others that the national treasure was given to Cao Min. "
"Your Majesty, what you hear is false, you still need to verify it. ”
Lu Xiaoyang spoke cautiously but boldly, which made the emperor very happy. He originally thought that Lei Zi and the others who were studying were good talents of the Lu family, but he did not expect that Lu Xiaoyang was also smart and capable. , taking into account everything he didn't expect.
"That's right, your children from the Lu family really did not disappoint me! I will ask people to investigate secretly. In addition, I will ask Xi Teng to give an explanation for your kidnapping, so that you will not suffer in vain. "
"Thank you, Your Majesty! "
Lu Xiaoyang kowtowed to thank him, and the emperor gave him some rewards before letting him leave the palace.
Lu Xiaoyang left by himself, because the emperor had left Lu Baichuan to discuss important matters.
"I believe that we can hold Xi Teng accountable for the kidnapping, and secretly send people to conduct an in-depth investigation. I believe that we will have accurate information soon. ”
Originally, their kidnapping was an accident, just a dispute between several families, but if it rises to the national level, the matter will become serious.
It depends on what they can do You cannot play your best and get some benefits from it.
There is competition between countries. Even if it is peaceful at present, no one wants the other party to be stronger than themselves.
< br />In the eyes of Emperor Xi Teng, Bei Yan is now the biggest threat. While he wants to please, he also has to be wary of calculations. It is impossible to say that he is brainless.
Among the four countries At that time, Xi Teng was relatively weak, but even so, Xi Teng has been holding on until now, which shows its strength.
The emperor thought Lu Baichuan’s idea was very good, so he used it to attack. If he could It would be best to cause them civil strife. Even if there is no chaos, Bei Yan can still get certain benefits from it. For Bei Yan, it is all profitable.
"Then who do you think should leave this matter to you? Which is more appropriate? "
The emperor looked at him expectantly, and he said: "I think the most suitable person is Mr. Kang. Mr. Kang has a eloquent tongue and will definitely gain the upper hand in the argument. It's just that Mrs. Kang is pregnant with Liujia and when she really needs to be taken care of, I'm afraid it's inconvenient for Mr. Kang to travel far away. It's better to let His Highness Prince Jing take a trip, which may also relieve the depression in his heart. ”
The affairs of the Balji people will not be so simple. They must first send someone to send a letter to Emperor Xiteng to explain the matter, and thenBeiyan sent people to escort Baer and others there to seek justice from Emperor Xi Teng, and also to find an opportunity to find out the news about Xi Teng's national treasure.
The matter between Prince Jing and Miss Mei has never been resolved, and he has been depressed. The last few times I have seen him, he has looked decadent, so it is better to send him to do something serious.
The emperor nodded: "That makes sense. Kang Aiqing has just come back. There are still many things in the court that I have to arrange for him to do. It would be better to send Prince Jing. After being decadent for so long, he should do it." You have to do your best."
Prince Jing often hangs out with Lu Baichuan and the others, and he is also very talkative. Especially since Prince Jing is practicing martial arts, he can feel more at ease along the way. He will probably be assassinated by the Dirty Xi Teng people along the way. It will save a lot of trouble to send a person in charge who has the ability to protect himself.
With the matter settled, Lu Baichuan left the palace and went to the military camp.
It was necessary to strengthen military training. He had a hunch that something would happen in the future. With stronger troops, the people would suffer less.
As soon as Lu Baichuan left, Prince Jing was called into the palace. Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard that the emperor was going to send him to Xiteng.
He exposed his legs that were not fully healed, with a look of disbelief on his face: "No, brother Huang, I'm still alive! My wife hasn't caught up with her yet, so you asked me to go to Xiteng , there’s no one who can’t come back after a year and a half, right? Then will I still have a chance to come back?”
Now he doesn’t look good in front of others every day, who would remember it after a long trip? Him!
"Among the people I know, who is married and has a career, but I am the only one who is alone! Do you really have the heart to let me go!"
He He immediately started to cheat, sitting down in the main hall, saying nothing and not getting up.
Emperor: ...
We haven’t seen you for a while, why did Prince Jing become like this?
So, he immediately pushed the pot out: "This is what Bai Chuan suggested."
"What did he suggest! His lovely wife is pregnant with children! Can he have any good suggestions? Unless he allows me to marry Miss Mei back home, I won’t go even if he says it!”
