Chapter 326 Mother is Here
Lu Chenyang returned to the general's mansion, which was where the Duke of Zhenguo worked in Yanhui Pass.
Zar left in a hurry and left many things behind. Tan Feng and his men were going to count the spoils.
At this time, Tan Feng hurried in from outside: "Sir, who's here?"
Lu Chenyang subconsciously raised his head and saw a middle-aged woman walking in from outside, looking at him with a smile.
Lu Chenyang was stunned for a moment: "Mom?!"
This was really a pleasant surprise for Lu Chenyang, because he hadn't seen his family for many years.
Since he became the county magistrate, he has bid farewell to his parents and become Lord Lu.
Wang looked at her "son" without blinking, her eyes full of heartache.
Perhaps all parents are like this. No matter how powerful their children are, they always worry that their children will be wronged.
She walked over with a smile and held his hand: "You've lost weight and are a little darker, but you still look good."
It was universally acknowledged that Lu Chenyang was good-looking. Lu Chenyang nodded in agreement, "It's all because of my mother's good looks."
Wang's face lit up with a bright smile: "You only know how to coax me. You are already the Minister of the Chancellery, yet you are still so childish. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by others?"
Lu Chenyang said domineeringly: "Now the whole thing is going on, who dares to laugh at me?"
Wang pinched his cheek.
Lu Chenyang asked, "Mom, why are you here?"
Lu Chenyang had already sent people to send Wang and his father away, for fear that others would do something bad to them.
Wang said, "Since last year, your father has noticed that strangers have been asking about us. We thought this wouldn't work. Your father also wanted to return to his old job, so he became a guard for a caravan, traveling far and wide, making it difficult for others to find us. I learned medical skills and came along. I heard you were at Yanhui Pass, and I was really worried about you, so I wanted to come and see you. Your father couldn't do it, and he had to go somewhere else with the master, so he sent me here."
Who would have thought that the parents of the most powerful minister in Dagan were still traveling around the country as bodyguards?
In reality, for the Wangs, Lu Chenyang's official position didn't have a significant impact on them. They didn't want to tie down their children's parents. Just like Lu Xueyin, when she traveled abroad disguised as a man, they didn't object, nor did they consider it unethical. They gave Lu Chenyang and Lu Xueyin the greatest freedom, never using their parental status to restrict them.
Lu Chenyang was still very happy to see his mother.
Lu Chenyang didn't have time to say anything else, and pulled Wang out: "Mom, you came at the right time. We just finished the battle and there are many wounded soldiers. Zhao Xi is too busy to take care of them."
Wang's expression suddenly became serious. She didn't have time to exchange pleasantries. Saving people was the most important thing.
Wang did not come alone, she was accompanied by three apprentices and guards.
The guards were sent by Lu Chenyang to protect Wang.
Let me add one more thing here. The reason why people hired Mr. Lu as a bodyguard is that in addition to Mr. Lu’s own escort company, he also brought a group of guards with high martial arts skills, all of whom were from the military. That gives people a strong sense of security. Who wouldn’t want that?
That's getting off topic.
Wang saw that her daughter had not yet recovered from the wounded when she was taken away to treat the wounded.
With Wang's joining, Zhao Xi felt much more relaxed. Many of the wounded were curious about Wang. They saw that Lu Chenyang had personally brought her here, and with such respect, they were all curious about her identity.
A soldier whose shoulder was pierced by an arrow struggled to get up from his bed and said, "I know, I know. I heard the master calling her mother. It was the master's mother."
Thinking of Zhao Xi's respectful attitude towards her and his unprecedented obedience, everyone suddenly realized that she was Lord Lu's mother.
Lord Lu's mother was just like Lord Lu, kind and gentle, and treated them all very kindly. She whispered softly, saying she was much gentler than Zhao Xike.
Wang worked until late at night, but there were still many wounded soldiers who had not been treated. However, Zhao Xi was worried that she would be tired, so he pushed her back to rest.
"Madam, leave the rest to me. The serious cases have already been dealt with." Zhao Xi said, "You should go back and rest. The master will be waiting for you."
Wang saw that there were indeed no seriously injured people, so she nodded and was escorted into the tent.
Lu Chenyang was also very busy, with many things to deal with after the war. He was still writing a letter when Wang came in.
Wang looked at him quietly for a while, and seeing that he hadn't noticed her yet, she had to cough lightly.
Lu Chenyang then raised his head and said with a smile, "Mom, when did you come in? Why didn't you call me?"
"I saw you were busy, so I didn't disturb you." Wang said softly. She walked over to him and gently touched his head. "Alas, I've heard of your reputation over the past few years. You've become more and more powerful, and you've saved more and more people. I feel proud but also worried."
Lu Chenyang smiled at her and said, "When you are in a position, you should do your job. When you were a child, you always hoped that someone would inherit your legacy and help the dying and the wounded. I am, in a disguised way, following in your footsteps."
Wang sighed softly. "I let you embark on this path out of selfish motives." She looked at him tenderly. "My daughter has always been a good student, no worse than your brother. Back then, you and your brother discussed policy and people's livelihoods, with unique insights and a heart for the people. Your brother always said that if you could pass the imperial examination and enter the government, you would definitely become a good official. Unfortunately..."
Unfortunately, because her daughter was a woman, she could not enter the officialdom despite her talent and learning. It was obvious that her daughter had been gifted since childhood and was no less talented than her brilliant brother.
Just because she was a woman, she could not take the imperial examination and her ambitions could not be realized.
Wang felt heartbroken just thinking about it.
