Lu Erlang was sweating profusely, and suddenly woke up from his dream, sitting there in a daze. He didn't know what day it was, and where he was. Lu Xian was at a loss, and he looked up and met Hengyang King Liu Mu who was looking for him. Liu Mu was holding a book in his hand, and was surprised that he was sweating profusely: "Did you have a nightmare?"

Lu Xian: ...Why did he start dreaming again?

Chapter 79

Seeing the enlarged face of the King of Hengyang leaning down, the young man's eyes turned cold, and his own frightened face was reflected in his eyes. Lu Xian leaned back, and the bed under him fell over because he leaned back too quickly. Lu Erlang fell down and sat on the ground, rubbing his waist and groaning.

Liu Mu immediately looked at him with disdain and impatience.

Another young man's voice came from the side: "Lu Erlang, are you awake? If you are awake, go and get the files that His Royal Highness the Prince of Hengyang wants. By the way, the Prince of Hengyang will work with us from now on, so you can help him get familiar with the environment."

The young man, who was wearing an official uniform, mentioned it casually, gave Lu Erlang a word, and hurried out of the government office. In Lu Xian's eyes, Liu Mu's face became visibly uglier.

Lu Erlang then remembered his current situation: he was transferred by his father to work under the Grand Minister of Works as a minister. The Grand Minister of Works was in charge of water and soil sacrifices, and usually did practical things, which was quite busy. It just had nothing to do with the increasingly fierce war on the border between the South and the North.

The Prince of Hengyang had always wanted to enter the Sima Mansion and take charge of the military and political affairs of the Southern Kingdom.

But he didn't expect that when Lu Erlang was taking a nap in the government office, the King of Hengyang came here and said he wanted to be his colleague. And the King of Hengyang looked unhappy.

Lu Erlang stood up to get the files to go to the Prince of Hengyang. He was the only one on duty because of the festival. Lu Xian looked at the young man for a long time and suddenly he had an idea. He whispered, "... Could it be that someone in the Sima Mansion was trying to squeeze the young master to our side?"

Liu Mu rolled his eyes at him sinisterly.

That look was subtle, as if it was going to cut him with a knife. Lu Erlang was stunned for a moment, then he understood and asked sternly, "... Could it be that Your Majesty was targeting me on purpose... I definitely did not complain to Your Majesty or say anything nonsense about you in front of Your Majesty! Didn't Prince Chen suppress the matter between you and me before? Didn't Your Majesty know about it?"

Before, the Prince of Hengyang wanted to kill Lu Erlang, but the Prince of Chen Liu Chu was unwilling to lose a prince. Afterwards, Lu Erlang denied the Prince of Hengyang's evil ambitions, and with the help of Lu Sanlang, the Prince of Chen and the Prince of Hengyang worked together to minimize the impact of the incident. After Lu Erlang and Liu Mu high-fived, they decided to be a scholar-official who didn't care about anything and pretended not to know what Liu Mu wanted to do to His Majesty. Who knew that more than half a month had passed, and Liu Mu had not made any move, but His Majesty's silent suppression became more and more obvious.

Liu Mu said lazily: "It has nothing to do with you."

Lu Jilang followed him and lowered his voice: "I said I would pretend I didn't know what you were going to do..."

Liu Mu sneered: "I don't want to do anything."

He had actually already lost. Even if he shook hands with Lu Erlang, he still didn't trust him. The best way was to sit still. But if he sat still, the inevitable result would be that he would be suppressed more and more by his brother.

Liu Mu was too lazy to say anything. He took the file from Lu Xian and found a random place to sit down. He didn't say what he was going to do. Lu Xian stood beside him, staring at the young man. Lu Xian felt a little depressed, thinking that if he hadn't changed his fate, Liu Mu would have almost outlasted the current emperor. Liu Mu, the King of Hengyang, was much more glorious than in reality.

Lu Xian saved his brother at the expense of Liu Mu.

Liu Mu spread out the files, but he just wanted to show off and didn't plan to read them any more. But Lu Erlang was standing beside him staring at him. Liu Mu raised his head with a sullen face: What, you want to spy on me?

Who would have thought that when he looked up, he saw Lu Xian looking at him with...guilty eyes?

Liu Mo paused, and the curse words did not come out.

Lu Xian forced a smile at him: "In fact, our Sikong Mansion is not bad, not much worse than the Grand Marshal's. At least it is safe here, without war. I heard that the Grand Marshal's Mansion is sending troops everywhere, the border is in chaos, and the young men are forced to go there. The border city is desolate, not a good place. My third brother wanted to go, but I scolded him back. He is a good young man who has never been to the battlefield, why bother himself. Those who go to the border now are all excluded young men, who are used to suppress the forces..."

After serving as an official in the court for several months, Lu Erlang had apparently figured out the ways of the aristocratic family.

Liu Mu interrupted Lu Xian's chattering coldly: "I want to go to the border."

Lu Xian: “……?!”

Liu Mu stopped pretending, threw the file in his hand, and leaned back carelessly. Liu Mu raised his eyebrows, looked at Lu Xian sarcastically, and repeated: "I am only staying here with you for two days. After I have arranged everything, I will naturally go to the battlefield. Those who go to the border are all fools..."

Lu Erlang immediately changed his words: "Young Master, you are wise and brave, and you are willing to go to the border to fight. This is the style of a great general. It is completely different from the young man who usually seeks death! I believe that with you here, the war over there will be settled soon... I wish you a victory!"

Yes, the Prince of Hengyang is now being severely oppressed in Jianye, and he is unwilling to go back to Hengyang to be a prince. Who knows if he will be killed by his brother one day? The best way is to take a gamble and go directly to the border. There is no construction without destruction!

Liu Mu: As Lu Xian’s younger brother, Lu Xian doesn’t want to die; as for him, can he just let him die?

Lu Jilang's repetition left him speechless for a while.

But when Lu Erlang was halfway through his exaggeration, he suddenly stopped talking slowly. Because he realized belatedly that reality was really different from the dream he had before. Reality had changed. In the dream, the Prince of Hengyang did not need to go to the border, but in reality, Liu Mu clearly said that he would go to the border.

That dream he had just had during his nap... that new episode that was totally different from his previous dreams...

Lu Erlang's face turned pale all of a sudden - reality had shone into his dream, and the dream was still continuing!

Could it be that he could, could it be that... he could actually predict the future?
