Chapter 159 Decided to trust him
Lu Yuan straightened up and walked towards the carriage with a smile: "Father."
The people in the car gave a faint hum, and the driver immediately set up a stool, and Lu Yuan stepped on the stool and got into the carriage.
Dressed in a dark robe, with a majestic chin and a white eyebrow, Xun Xiangguo was sitting on a bench with his eyes closed and meditating. Next to him was Xun Yu, Xun Xiangguo's only biological son, who was one year older than Lu Yuan.
Xun Yu had sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, a dignified appearance, and a handsome figure. When he saw Lu Yuan, he smiled and said, "Ah Yuan, I haven't seen you for many years. How are you?"
Lu Yuan smiled: "Second brother."
Xun Yu opened the curtain on the side and looked diagonally forward: "I'm afraid you will call me third brother from now on. Father's new adopted son is not very talkative. I will introduce you to him some other time."
Lu Yuan followed Xun Yu's gaze and saw a general wearing silver armor and a helmet, riding a tall horse. He was tall and tall, and the horse under him was stronger than other horses.
Lu Yuan felt a very unpleasant aura from him.
He is a master.
"I know, third brother."
Lu Yuan said to Xun Yu with a smile.
Xun Yu said warmly: "I heard that you got married, but I haven't congratulated you yet."
Inside the city tower, the imperial guards cleared the streets and did not allow anyone to ride horses on the official road. However, they could stop the carriages and horses, but they could not stop the people watching the excitement.
Meng Qianqian arrived late and couldn't squeeze in. In order to prevent assassins from sneaking in, the second floor of the shop was also taken over by the Imperial Guards, and they couldn't even go up to the roof.
Meng Qianqian could only stand behind the crowd and stare at the army that was about to enter the city gate.
"Coming, coming! Entering the city!"
"The white tiger's handsome flag! The handsome flag of the Prime Minister!"
There was a commotion in the crowd, and Meng Qianqian got the opportunity and squeezed into the front row.
Unexpectedly, a child fell down at this time and was about to be trampled by the crowd. Meng Qianqian hurriedly withdrew from the crowd, picked up the child and landed at the door of the shop.
"Wow—"
The child was so frightened that he cried loudly.
When his father heard his son's voice, he also squeezed out of the crowd and thanked Meng Qianqian sweating profusely.
After such a delay, she couldn't squeeze through at all, and she could only hear the crowd shouting for the Prime Minister.
When Lu Yuan returned to Beijing, there was no such battle.
It seems that Xiangguo has a high reputation among the people.
Thinking about it, Lu Yuan was a traitor who everyone wanted to punish. Even if he won the battle at the border, the people in the capital felt that he had robbed General Han of his opportunity to go into battle and kill the enemy.
"Mr. Xun! I met Mr. Xun!"
"What? Mr. Xun has returned to Beijing too?"
"Of course I want to come back after winning the battle!"
Next, Meng Qianqian heard a lot of heated discussions about Mr. Xun. Although the people also mentioned several generals around the Prime Minister, Mr. Xun's voice was undoubtedly the highest outside the Prime Minister.
"Who is Mr. Xun?"
Meng Qianqian asked a young scholar on the side.
The young scholar looked at Meng Qianqian in surprise and said, "Girl, aren't you from the capital?"
Meng Qianqian said: "Yes, I'm from out of town."
The young scholar looked Meng Qianqian up and down: "You should have heard of Mr. Xun, but I hear your voice is quite young. Maybe you were still young at that time. Nine years ago, you were only 18 years old. Mr. Xun is the number one scholar in high school. Let alone this dynasty, there has never been an 18-year-old new scholar in the history of the dynasty. He still got the sixth grade. This achievement is unprecedented and will be rare in the future. "
Meng Qianqian nodded: "That's it."
When the young scholar mentioned Mr. Xun, he couldn't stop praising him: "Don't think that Mr. Xun is a bookworm who only knows how to study. Seven years ago, Mr. Xun gave up the glory and wealth of the capital and resolutely followed his father to the west. The prime minister was fighting on the front line. , he managed the people in the rear, reclaimed wasteland, diverted water and built canals, and invented many tools that were beneficial to farming. In short, he was a very remarkable person! "
On the chariot.
Xun Yu handed Lu Yuan a bag of dried fruits brought back from the Western Regions: "I grew them with my own hands. I was afraid they would spoil, so I let them dry to see how they taste."
Lu Yuan ate one: "Sweet."
Xun Yu patted him on the shoulder: "I heard that you won the battle at Yumen Pass. Third brother is really happy for you. If I had known you had this talent, I should have taken you with me on the Western Expedition. Maybe I could have conquered the Western Regions earlier!" Lu Yuan said: "It's just a narrow victory. I almost didn't come back. I heard that the third brother also had a plan to pacify the Western Region this time. A Yuan should congratulate the third brother and his adoptive father."
Xun Yu hugged him and laughed heartily: "Brothers, you and I, please stop bragging!"
The carriage drove through Zhuque Street, traveled three miles east, and stopped in front of a majestic mansion.
The group of people got off the carriage.
Lu Yuan pointed to the open vermilion front door and said, "In the past few years, I have been sending people to clean the mansion. The furnishings and flowers inside are still the same as they were before my adoptive father left the capital."
Prime Minister Xun stepped across the threshold, and his servants all saluted.
Xun Xiangguo glanced at it.
Xun Yu followed his father and looked at the peach tree inside the door: "Ayuan, you are so awesome. Even the peach tree is exactly the same as before. I remember that I accidentally broke this brick. You Do you still have it?”
Xun Xiangguo said to Lu Yuan: "I'm tired, you can go back."
Xun Yu hooked Lu Yuan's shoulder: "No, father, we brothers haven't seen each other for a long time. Let A Yuan and I not get drunk tonight!"
Lu Yuan smiled and said: "The days are long, and there are many opportunities to drink. Third brother is tired of traveling and traveling, so he should recuperate first."

Xun Yu joked: "I think you want to go back to accompany your wife?"
Lu Yuan smiled and said nothing.
Xun Yu looked disgusted: "Now that I have a wife, I have forgotten about my brother. OK, OK, you go!"
Lu Yuan said goodbye to his father and son, turned around and left the Prime Minister's Mansion.
At the door, he passed by the man in silver armor. The man was wearing a helmet and his mask was down, revealing only a pair of eyes as cold as knives.
The murderous aura in him was stronger than anyone Lu Yuan had ever seen.
He didn't say hello to Lu Yuan and entered the Prime Minister's Mansion without looking back.
Lu Yuan looked back at him and got into his carriage.
-
Back at the Governor's Mansion, Meng Qianqian was waiting for him in the study.
Seeing that his expression was not good, Meng Qianqian stood up and said, "You said I can come in."
"Um."
Lu Yuan nodded.
There is only one large study room in the main courtyard, with two tables set up, one for him and one for hers. They can share it, as they agreed early on.
Meng Qianqian saw that he really didn't care, so she asked, "Are you unhappy today?"
"A little tired." Lu Yuan changed the subject and saw that her table was empty, as if she was waiting for him, so he asked, "What do you want from me?"
Meng Qianqian hesitated.
Before Zhang Feihu left, he told her to trust Lu Yuan.
But should she believe it?
From the beginning, he clearly wanted to kill her.
No, I almost killed him too.
After all, it's even.
Lu Yuan did not rush Meng Qianqian, but just sat down at his table.
After a while, Meng Qianqian made a decision in her heart: "I went to Fangshi today and found out about Chen Long's whereabouts."
Lu Yuan's expression paused: "You went to the West City Gate to find Chen Long?"
Meng Qianqian asked in confusion: "How did the Governor know that I went to the West City Gate?"
Also, why do you feel that this guy's face is even more ugly?
Lu Yuan said lightly: "I saw you."
Meng Qianqian: "Oh."
Lu Yuan thought of something and his eyes moved: "It turns out that person is Chen Long."
Meng Qianqian was stunned again: "Have you seen Chen Long?"
Lu Yuan muttered: "Xiang Guo has adopted a new adopted son, and nine times out of ten, he is the Chen Long you are looking for."
Oops, let’s fight monsters together in the future!
