Your Majesty's eyes sparkled.

Just as he was about to speak, the eunuch outside the palace reported: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Lu wants to see you. Should we summon Prime Minister Lu in?"

Lu Xiang, also known as Lu Mao, was the father of Lu Erlang Lu Xian, and was also the left prime minister of the current dynasty.

His Majesty remained calm and said, "My son, why is Prime Minister Lu here in the middle of the night?"

Prince Zhao: "The Lu family is seeking marriage between Lu Erlang and my fifth brother's biological sister, Princess Liu Tang of Ningping. The two families want to form an in-law relationship. My fifth brother has always been good friends with Lu Sanlang, and this is no secret in Jianye. Now Lu Sanlang is in Nanyang, and that Liu Chu forged the imperial edict because of Lu Sanlang. The Lu family and my fifth brother are inseparable, and Prime Minister Lu must have entered the palace late at night to plead for my fifth brother."

Your Majesty did not comment.

Prince Zhao Liu Huai observed his father's eyes and continued, "The aristocratic families are now too powerful, and the issuance of imperial decrees is increasingly hindered. Prime Minister Lu came late at night to force father to let my fifth brother go. I am worried that if the aristocratic families continue to be so powerful, my royal family..."

His Majesty said: "The family's foundation is too deep."

Liu Huai's heart skipped a beat, and he sensitively guessed the emperor's subtle dissatisfaction. As expected, even if his father no longer cared about government affairs and relied on the aristocratic family, the emperor did not want to see the situation where Prime Minister Lu could influence His Majesty's orders.

Prince Zhao whispered: "The aristocratic families are powerful, but the Lu family is just one of the aristocratic families in Jianye. There are also many aristocratic families in Jianye who are dissatisfied with the status of the Lu family."

The emperor and his son exchanged a brief glance, and without further ado, he summoned Prime Minister Lu to enter the palace. Prince Zhao quietly withdrew, and heard the emperor in the hall changing his tone to greet Prime Minister Lu. When he talked about Prince Chen, he kept saying "not so", "not so", "Prince Chen is right"... Liu Huai curled his lips and was led out of the palace through the back door by the eunuchs.

He knew that as long as the Lu family was there, Chen Wang Liu Chu would be fine.

However, this thorn has already been pierced into Your Majesty's heart, which is very painful.

…

When his father entered the palace, the Lu family tried their best to protect Liu Chu from the influence of the false imperial edict. The Lu family was arrogant and thought that His Majesty would give them face. And His Majesty did give them face, comforted Prince Chen with kind words, gave his son a surprise gift, and sent Prime Minister Lu and Prince Chen out of the palace together.

Lu Erlang and Lu Xianche couldn't sleep that night.

After hearing the news that Prince Chen was safe, he stayed up all night in Sima's mansion, waiting for news of the war in the north. He felt more and more that the timeline in his dream was approaching, an instinctive feeling that was hard to explain. He tied a jade Buddha around his neck, and he chanted scriptures and prayed every day, hoping that his third brother in the north would be safe and that everything could be saved in time.

The sky gradually darkened, then gradually brightened. Lu Erlang turned his jade Buddha, closed his eyes and muttered something, which attracted the strange looks of many scholars and officials who came in and out.

A new day arrived, the sky was gray and the wind was strong. Lu Erlang didn't know that thousands of miles away, the north was covered with snow and ice.

…

Luo Lingyu also felt uncomfortable.

She was in Nanyang, and she would only feel more clearly than Lu Erlang and Lu Xian. Even if Zhou Lang came and brought soldiers and food to relieve the pressure in the north. When Luo Lingyu was helping in the military camp, her eyelids still twitched, and she couldn't calm down.

She knew that the King of Hengyang had led his troops into the Prince Wangshan of Funiushan Mountain, and that the situation in Nanyang had begun to change for the better after Zhou Lang brought in troops, but she was still confused. After a morning of getting the herbs, Luo Lingyu continued to change the medicine and treat the wounds in the barracks with other girls. But she made many mistakes in the morning, and her technique was crude.

At noon, when having lunch, Luo Lingyu went to ask people and learned that famous scholars were coming out from the thick fog in the mountains one after another.

The army was still trapped in the mountains.

"The enemy has sent out elite troops. They are strong and ours is not as strong as them. Therefore, the war cannot be ended for the time being and we don't know who will win."

Luo Lingyu bit her lip and listened to the whole thing. She couldn't wait any longer. She refused to eat a bite of food and went to find Zhou Yangling, who was surrounded by several generals, with a pale face but still doing his best to explain the situation in the court. Luo Lingyu found Zhou Yangling and said straightforwardly: "I need some people to go to the foot of Taiziwang Mountain with me."

The war situation was serious, and the war on General Wei's side was still going on. Luo Lingyu came to ask for the people despite her ignorance, knowing that she was wrong. A person who cares about the world should pay attention to the war situation on General Wei's side and give priority to the war there; but she cared more about Lu Yun's side.

Luo Lingyu made an excuse: "The fire medicine master hasn't come down the mountain yet. He is extremely powerful..."

Zhou Yangling: “Okay.”

Luo Lingyu was surprised: "..."

She had never thought that Zhou Lang was so easy to talk to. He didn't even need her to cry and act like a spoiled brat in front of him before he would agree. She stared at him blankly with her watery eyes and bit her lip: "You don't ask me the reason..."

Zhou Yangling: "Time is tight, no need to ask why. My sister believes in me, and I believe in my sister too."

Luo Lingyu summoned up her courage and said, "I am very selfish..."

Zhou Yangling disagreed: "Is saving people selfish? Saving people is not about personal gain. My sister is the most amazing girl I have ever met. My sister always says that she is not a good person, but I don't know how many good things she has done for the country. But what I love most about my sister is that she never cries at critical moments."

She joked like this, looking at Luo Lingyu's red eyes with a hint of meaning. Luo Lingyu's nose was originally sore, but after being teased by her, she immediately burst into laughter.

Zhou Yangling said gently, "That's it. My sister looks so beautiful when she smiles... I love to see my sister smile."

She immediately called some of the people she had brought with her and asked them to follow Luo Lingyu to rescue people. She even urged Luo Lingyu not to waste time. Zhou Lang raised his hand and brushed away the dust on the girl's shoulders. He comforted Luo Lingyu and told her to stay calm no matter what happened. Zhou Lang comforted her a few words and went to do other things. Luo Lingyu left in a daze, looking back every few steps and seeing Zhou Lang's gentle eyes looking at her. She felt warm in her heart and smiled softly: Zhou Lang is so nice.

If she didn't love Lu Yun... Zhou Lang would be such a great husband to marry.

…

Leaving the barracks, he rode to the foot of Funiu Mountain. The soldiers he brought with him went up the mountain to help, find people, and rescue the celebrities and fire masters trapped in the mountain fog. The battle in the mountain had not yet ended, and Luo Lingyu did not dare to go up the mountain rashly. She was such a weak woman, and she went up the mountain just to care about Lu Yun, but she became a burden to Lu Yun. What should she do?
