Chapter 44: Something Happened in the Capital
Lu Huaixue was full of ambitions and ambitions. He wanted to fight his way through the chaos in the capital and embark on the road to heaven.
She wanted to let the Lu family know that the Lu family was always worthy of crawling at her feet and make the Lu family regret it forever.
Lu Huaixue looked to the northwest with vicious eyes: Lu Xiaoyun, you are the same, sooner or later you will kneel at my feet and beg for mercy!
Far in the northwest, Lu Xiaoyun suddenly sneezed while sitting on a grain truck.
"So, are you suffering from a cold?" Mr. He was extremely nervous.
"It must be Lu Huaixue scolding me!" Lu Xiaoyun rubbed his nose, "I'm in good health and won't get sick."
He touched her head and said, "You need to be more careful. It's so cold in the northwest. If you get sick, my mother won't know how to take care of you."
"I won't let myself get sick." Lu Xiaoyun comforted Mr. He, "Mom, don't worry."
"Young man from the third family, don't think about it all day long. Saburo is going to go out to quell the rebellion now. You are already in poor health. Thinking too much will only make your health worse. When the time comes, Saburo will be worried about what to do if he is distracted from going into battle to kill the enemy.
?" Old Mrs. Lu couldn't help but say He's.
Mr. He lowered his head: "Yes, mother."
"I know you love Yunyun. We all do the same. You not only have to believe in Yunyun, but you also have to believe in us."
"Mom, I was wrong."
"You're right. Which daughter is not my mother's sweetheart? But it's true, don't think too much in the future. By your side, we are all fine."
"Um."
"Grandma, where is Daze City?"
Lu Xiaoyun changed the topic.
I know that the old lady means well, but He is very sensitive about the fact that her and Lu Huaixue's identities were exchanged, and she has always been depressed. The old lady doesn't understand this, and the more she talks about it, the more burdened He becomes.
"After Daze City, you will reach Fengyang Pass. Daze City is the northwestmost city in our direction." Old Mrs. Yang took over the conversation and explained to Lu Xiaoyun, "In the past, when we were still trading with the Western Regions, Daze City was very prosperous.
Already."
"The Wei Dynasty used to trade with the Western Regions? Why did it close down later?"
"It's not that the people from the Western Regions are insidious and let those soldiers sneak into Daze City disguised as ordinary merchants. They want to cooperate with the inside and outside to open the gate of Fengyang Pass and march straight in to attack the Wei Dynasty. In anger, the late emperor asked my husband to lead the army to attack.
The people from the Western Regions fought out and closed down trade."
"So now that people from the Western Regions are frequently sneaking into the northwest, are they planning to do this again?"
"Well, everything is in short supply over there in the Western Region. When the two countries used to trade, they could still buy necessities through normal transactions. Later, when trade was closed, the shortage of the items they needed became even worse, so they had to rely on robbing."
"Didn't Erbo Yang also guard Fengyang Pass?"
"Yes, but the emperor recalled him to the capital with an imperial edict, asked him to hand over his military power, serve as a casualty in the Ministry of War, and appointed generals to garrison Fengyang Pass. At first, General Zhang was not bad, but later..."
Mrs. Yang took a long breath and shook her head.
Lu Xiaoyun knew as soon as he heard that the Dog Emperor himself was incompetent, but he could not tolerate others being capable.
He was obviously trying to protect the country for him, but he acted as if he wanted to take it away from him. He found all kinds of excuses to kill anyone who had some commanding talent.
Had the princes not rebelled this time, neither Lu Yuanming nor Yang Hong would have been rehabilitated while the Dog Emperor was still alive.
Lu Xiaoyun asked God again: When will the Dog Emperor be robbed of his throne?
"Now the guard of Fengyang Pass..." Mrs. Yang sneered, "It's okay not to mention it."
"Just look at the days when the people in the northwest are struggling, and you will know that they really have no ability at all." Old Mrs. Lu whispered, "I don't know what that person is thinking. If Fengyang Pass is broken, the Wei Dynasty will still be able to defend it.
Can you live there?"
"If the defense in front of us hadn't been built so well, it would be surprising if this general could have defended Fengyang Pass with his ability!" Old Mrs. Yang was not polite at all.
However, they were sitting in the grain cart and their voices were not loud. Others were not as hearing-savvy as Lu Xiaoyun, so they could not hear them.
"So, there are a lot of delicious food in Daze City. When you get there, I will take you to eat delicious food." Old Mrs. Yang looked at Lu Xiaoyun, "There are also specialties from the Western Regions. I guarantee you haven't tried them before."
Speaking of food, Lu Xiaoyun was particularly happy: "Really?"
"Well, I stayed in Daze City for a few years when I was young. At that time, we were still trading with the Western Regions. Most of the people coming and going were Western Regions and other barbarians. You can find all kinds of delicacies in Daze City."
"Then when we get to Daze City, I must go and have a good meal." Lu Xiaoyun's previous life was the end of the world, and there was no delicious food at all.
I finally came to an unpolluted world, and it was the beginning of my exile from hell. I didn’t have a few good meals along the way.
Now that Mrs. Yang said this, Lu Xiaoyun was full of expectations for Daze City. She could finally see the legendary snack street and roadside stalls, right?
Old Mrs. Yang counted all the famous shops in Daze City like a treasure trove, including which stalls were delicious and she remembered them clearly.
Lu Xiaoyun's mouth watered when she heard this. If it hadn't been out of time, she would have wanted to go to Daze City to have a good meal first.
"Old madam, I'm afraid those stalls you mentioned are no longer there." The captain often comes to Daze City and is more familiar with Old Madam Yang than Mrs. Yang. "Many shops have been closed and there is no communication between them. How can there be so many customers?
Today’s Daze City is in a lot of depression.”
"Is that because all the delicious food is gone? Is it because people from the Western Regions often come to attack?"
"Yes, in addition to closing down trade, another reason is because people from the Western Regions, where no one knows when they will lose their lives, don't they all have to leave?"
"Damn Westerners."
“But there’s still a lot of delicious food, it’s just not what it used to be.”
These words comforted Lu Xiaoyun a little.
Otherwise, if you can’t find anything to eat in Daze City, wouldn’t your trip be in vain?
Since it was very close to Daze City, and the Lu and Yang families had been rehabilitated, the official was a good person. When he walked to the next town, he stopped to rest and found two more carriages for Lu and Yang.
People from both families sit.
The carriage was very old, but the captain had no choice but to say, "Two old ladies, this place is no better than the capital, so I can only make do with it."
"Thank you for your hard work." Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Yang didn't embarrass him.
The captain went to prepare a decent meal for the two families in the local area.
Lu Xiaoyun gave the captain money, "Thank you for taking care of me along the way."
The change of status made the captain quickly refuse, "No, no, no, I can't accept this."
"We are no longer exiled prisoners. You don't have to take care of us too much. Since you have done this, I will naturally keep it in mind. I can't let you give me money, right? Besides, it's all thanks to your care along the way.
, my parents are safe and sound."
The captain was still about to refuse, but a shout from outside made his face change drastically, and he rushed out immediately.
