...I narrowly escaped death like this.

Lu Yun seemed to be thinking about something, and suddenly said: "If I were not here at this moment, I would be visiting the celebrities. I would not be in Nanyang either."

Luo Lingyu: “…What do you mean?”

Lu Yun smiled, lowered his head and looked at her tenderly, kissing her cheek: "It means that you changed my fate. You saved me."

If she married the Prince of Hengyang, he would be heartbroken and distracted, and he would die in this war;

If she stayed in Jianye and waited for him, he would have her in his heart and be at peace. He would hand over Nanyang to the generals of Wei, and he would visit the famous people around him and use public opinion to suppress the Northern Kingdom.

If she came to find him, he would come to find her, thus avoiding the crisis.

So the tragic thing that killed Lu Erlang in his first dream, in the second dream, no matter what, did not happen. What was waiting for him was another one... Little by little, it was not noticeable at first, but when all the little things came together, it would produce a huge change. How could Lu Erlang have thought that so many changes would happen just because he agreed to let his cousin Luo go to Nanyang in advance?

Lu Xian still feels that nothing has changed.

Lu Yun smiled: "Interesting."

Luo Lingyu: "What does it mean? I'm so worried about you! His dream seems to be real... What should I do? If he dreams about you, you will die..."

Lu Yun said: "It's okay, I know what's going on. This is a good opportunity to test how my second brother's dreams predict the future and how accurate they are. Well, I'm afraid I need my sister's help..."

His plan was immature, and he was thinking and talking. Before he finished, Luo Lingyu stood up and responded to him actively: "Hurry up! What do you need me to do? How do you need me to cooperate with you? Are we going back to Nanyang...ah, that mountain! We should find that mountain first..."

Lu Yun looked at her for a long while, and Luo Lingyu blinked and looked back at him in confusion. Lu Yun: "Where is your 'Dodder' dream? Don't you want it anymore? You said you would stay at home and fiddle with butterflies and embroider flowers?"

Luo Lingyu said angrily, "...We'll talk about that later. At a critical moment of life and death, who has the mood to embroider flowers and catch butterflies?"

Lu Yun stroked her hair and smiled without saying anything - it was not about whether he was in a good mood or not, but whether he had the ability or not. When facing a crisis, most women in the world are still only able to flutter butterflies and embroider flowers. Luo Lingyu is different. She has a positive attitude and is brave enough to attack. If he really lets her stay still, she will definitely go crazy.

He had a feeling that her "Dodder" dream was probably just talk.

Luo Lingyu pushed him: "Laughing again! Are you kidding me?"

Lu Yun stopped laughing and said, "Don't make a fuss. Let's take a day off. We will return to Nanyang tomorrow."

Lu Jilang had no idea that his third brother was deciphering his dreams, exploring the vitality in his dreams, and even conducting experiments.

Lu Erlang was worried all day long, because he felt that the court situation was becoming increasingly unfavorable to them. The more pessimistic the court situation was, the more he went to see His Royal Highness Prince Chen. Recently, a famous scholar suddenly wrote an article, angrily denouncing the traitors of the Northern Kingdom, and using the fall of Ruyang City to attack the Northern Kingdom for its betrayal - on the surface, it said it was negotiating with the Southern Kingdom, but behind the scenes, it sent troops to attack the city.

The influence of celebrities is the same in the north and south. Once this article was published, other celebrities followed suit. The writings of celebrities aroused heated discussions among scholars all over the world.

In Jianye, the situation of the Northern Kingdom's envoys suddenly became extremely embarrassing and dangerous. The eyes of the court looked at them strangely, and even the old emperor was suspicious. The envoys panicked and accused the literati of talking nonsense. It is said that the princess of the Northern Kingdom fainted while kneeling outside the bedroom of the Southern Kingdom's Majesty, but the Majesty ignored her. The next day, the Northern Kingdom's envoys paid a large price and donated a pair of pearl curtains to the Kaishan Temple in Jianye as a gesture of goodwill. At the same time, the Northern Kingdom's envoys visited Zhao Wang Liu Huai and gave him a box of night-shining pearls.

While Liu Huai was still hesitating about playing with the night pearl, a pair of pearl curtains that were smaller than the ones in the mountain temple were delivered to his house.

In this era, a pair of pearl curtains was made of Indian colored glass and woven with necklaces. Because of the preciousness of colored glass, celebrities all over the world praised the pearl curtains. This priceless treasure was rare even in the Taichu Palace. The fact that the Northern Kingdom’s envoys had such a large brush made King Zhao very happy—after all, King Chen was a political enemy, and so was the Lu family.

King Zhao spoke for the Northern Kingdom's envoys in the court and showed contempt for many famous scholars.

There were other people who came forward to help here and there.

Prince Chen Liu Chu did not join the team this time, and Lu Xian visited him again with a sad face, and used the excuse of proposing marriage. This time, the staff members participated in the discussion of political affairs and no longer avoided Lu Erlang. Lu Erlang realized later that Prince Chen had already been dealing with this matter. He probably felt that he was unreliable before, so he did not reveal any news to him.

When Lu Erlang sat down, he was in a very complicated mood. Liu Chu finally told the truth: "...No soldiers were sent because everyone was watching. We prepared food and grass privately, but the quantity was not enough, but it was not appropriate to make any major moves."

Lu Xian said sadly: "The court wants the north to cease fire, so it cuts off troops and food supplies."

Liu Chu: "...First, find a way to deliver the grain and grass, without the knowledge of the court, and find someone who can be trusted."

Lu Xian made a prompt decision: "I'll go!"

Liu Chu glanced at him, then passed by him and continued to discuss with his staff: "Who do you think is feasible to send?"

Lu Xian: “…”

He was actually ignored? In the eyes of King Chen, he couldn't even do something like delivering food and fodder? It must be because Sanlang often said bad things about him in King Chen's ear, which made King Chen distrust him so much.

The staff looked at Lu Erlang sympathetically, and without saying much, they offered suggestions and recommended people who could deliver food and fodder. King Chen did not comment. Lu Erlang recommended himself again and actively lobbied King Chen. King Chen stared at Lu Erlang for a few moments, but then looked away.

Obviously, King Chen still did not think that Lu Erlang had the ability to deal with emergencies.

Lu Erlang was filled with grief and anger, and when he was listening angrily to who Chen Wang would send, a gentle and low voice came from behind them: "I'll go."

It was visible to the naked eye that Liu Chu's originally cold expression suddenly showed some expression, and he turned his head abruptly.

Lu Xian stood up, and everyone else stood up. They saw that outside the pavilion, Zhou Lang, Zhou Zibo, was led by servants to the pavilion under the greenery of the garden. They didn't know how long they had been listening to their discussion. Zhou Lang smiled slightly, and everyone looked at His Royal Highness Prince Chen, whose ears were slightly red: Prince Chen's mansion was freely visited by Zhou Lang, and even Prince Chen himself didn't know that Zhou Lang was here. This shows how Prince Chen usually ordered his servants.
