Later, he finally cheered up from the depressed.

Everything gradually became more and more appropriate. King Linyi was very grateful to him. He was also loved by the local people. It is rumored that this young prefect from the Jiankang family always liked to carry the guqin on his back, climbed to the top of the hill behind the prefect's mansion, and played the zither alone in front of the empty valley. The sound of the piano penetrated the forest, and often asked the woodcutter to stop the axe and listen. So he also received the nickname "Prefect Boya".

Just when he sometimes had a sudden idea that if he was here and would have spent the rest of his life like this, he suddenly learned that his father wanted him to return to Beijing.

He had a premonition that his father must have something to do.

The Lu family is not far away.

Lu Jianzhi speeded up his horse, and before he reached the gate, he went down and opened the door.

When his family saw him return in the middle of the night, they ran into the notice.

His mother and younger brother Lu Huanzhi stood up to greet him, and were very happy.

Before Lu Jianzhi could say a few words to his mother and brother, his family came to pass on the news, saying that his father was in the study and asked him to see him.

Lu Jianzhi comforted his mother who was crying because she saw him getting thinner and asked Lu Huanzhi to send her to rest, and hurried to the study.

Lu Guang sat upright behind the lights, looking serious.

Lu Jianzhi knelt down to his father and respectfully gave a great respect. Before he knelt down beside him, he said, "For the past year, my son has not been able to perform filial piety in front of his parents. Please forgive me."

Lu Guang glanced at him: "Say you were sick before. How are you in good health?"

"I have recovered long ago. Thank you for your concern."

Lu Guang nodded slightly.

Lu Jianzhi waited for a while, and saw that his father had not spoken again, he asked, "Does he have any instructions to call his son home?"

"Your wings are hard. Now, you are afraid you won't feel relieved when I give me my instructions."

Lu Guang glanced at his son and said coldly.

Lu Jianzhi knew that his father had disobeyed his orders and refused to obey the marriage arrangements before, so he fell down on the bed again and kowtowed: "My son disobeys, I hope his father forgives his crimes. My son also said in his letter before that, besides this matter, please do not force him, the son dare not refuse to obey the rest of the matter."

Lu Guang snorted, his face extremely ugly: "The Gao family is so insulting my Lu family. Now, are you still obsessed with the Gao family's daughter? A real man is worried about having no wife! It's just a woman! You're so disappointed me!"

"I have nothing to do with her. She is already a wife. I have long since lost my previous thoughts. I just think about being mediocre and doing nothing. How can I get married without a job? Please forgive me for my father!"

Lu Guang stared at the figure of his son who could not bow down, and for a while, he said coldly: "I asked you to go back, not for marriage."

Lu Jianzhi slowly stood up.

"You should know about the affairs of the court in Jiaozhou. As the emperor, King Dongyang naturally had to rely on Gao Qiao, and the Gao family would only gain more power in the future. Xu Bi asked me to discuss a major event a few days ago."

He stared at his son.

"Xu Mi proposed to join forces with our Lu family to launch troops to attack Yuzhou in the north. In order to defeat this, the humiliation our Lu family suffered in the past can be achieved by Xue Qing. If you take advantage of the victory and conquer Luoyang and restore the Eastern Capital together, it will be a great achievement! Even if Gao Qiao takes the emperor in his hand, he will never be able to cover the sky with one hand!"

Lu Jianzhi was surprised: "Father, the Northern Expedition is what the people want, so I am naturally willing to lead the troops to fight. It is just that raising troops is a major event, let alone such a large-scale cross-river battle, you must be more cautious. Without careful preparation in advance, and without knowing yourself and your enemy, I am afraid that if I encounter disadvantages, not only will it not bring glory to my Lu family, but it will hurt the fundamentals. If you want to rise again in the future, it is afraid that it will not be so easy."

"What's more,..."

He hesitated for a moment.

"How can you believe this person, Xu Bi, faced with three swords? "

"It's outrageous!"

Lu Guang was furious and clapped his desk, and the lights in the palm of his palm jumped.

"Since I have asked you to come back, I have already considered it. You act according to my fate! As the eldest son of the Lu family, you were not very careful in thinking and acted with your will. I told the Lu family to be shamed because of you. Now that I have encountered the rise and fall of this family, you have retreated and have no responsibility. Is it possible for you to deserve the title of the eldest son of the Lu family?"

Lu Jianzhi hurriedly kowtowed: "Please calm down your anger. Your son has no intention of retreating, and he dare not question his father."

Lu Guang slowly let out a breath, and his expression finally calmed down a little. He said, "Do you think I would like to do what you have considered?"

"The Western Jin Dynasty wants to attack Chang'an. Chang'an is the ultimate capital of Longxi in Beixia. In order to deal with it, the Jie people must do their best. Once the two sides start fighting, they will not be able to take care of the difference. This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is the time."

"Jingxiang passed by and captured Nanyang, and then connected to Yuzhou. Military supplies could be transported from this route without any obstacles. This is a good place."

"Xu Mi now hates Gao Qiao so much that he takes the initiative to cooperate with me and seek victory, which is even more important than me. How could he obstruct it? His Xu family has 200,000 troops and 100,000 troops and 300,000 troops in the Lu family, which is even better than Gao Qiao's northern expedition back then."

"There are all this battle, the right time, the right place, and the harmonious people. Even if Gao Qiao wants to obstruct, he has no way to start. How dare you say you lose?"

Lu Jianzhi lowered his head: "Son doesn't dare."

Lu Guang said: "I have made up my mind! You should prepare well. When the time comes, send troops to Jiangbei!"

"With Li Mu's foundation now, you must win this battle! Remember?"

Lu Jianzhi kowtowed and said, "My son must obey his father's orders and will do his best and dare not slackew!"

Lu Guang then showed satisfaction and nodded: "You must be tired on the way, so go and take a break. Have a good rest, it is not too late to meet the people in the military palace. You have to wait for the opportunity to send troops, and it must not be done overnight."

...

Lu Jianzhi came out of his father's study and returned to his former residence.

He didn't have much luggage when he came back, only a large box with some clothes and a piano box.

Lu's mother had already asked someone to clean up and waited in person. Seeing that her son finally replied, she muttered and told him to listen to his father's words and not to let him down again. Seeing that his son nodded and agreed, she left with relief.

The moon rises in the sky, and the sound of drums becomes louder.

Lu Jianzhi rushed to the road overnight. Although he was tired, he was worried. How could he sleep?

He did not expect that his father summoned him back for this purpose and joined forces with Xu Mi to launch an army to fight the Northern Expedition.

My father's analysis is indeed correct.

The time, place and people are harmonious, and all three are occupied.

He was also eager to be able to raise troops to fight the north and seize the land of the Han family. He was definitely not without the courage to take responsibility.

But what made him uneasy was the purpose of his father and Xu Bi's dispatch of troops this time.

Their only purpose was to use the Northern Expedition to suppress Gao Qiao and raise his power when the new emperor had just established his dynasty.

In front of him, my father didn't even cover up the slightest.

Lu Jianzhi was relieved to be Gao Xianggong. Even if he knew the purpose of Xu Lu's two families' northern expedition, with his ethics, he would never secretly hinder him.

But it is precisely because of this purpose of sending troops that Lu Jianzhi felt extremely worried.

Two families who were temporarily gathered together for profit, led a coalition army to the north with the purpose of suppressing another family. They could really focus on their efforts and achieve their wishes?

He wandered around the house for a long time, unable to let go of his heart. Before he knew it, he walked to the piano again, opened the zither box, took out the hidden zither score, and pointed to the candlelight, touched the beautiful font on the top of the music score. When he was in a daze, the door was pushed in.

He turned his head and saw Lu Huanzhi coming, so he hurriedly took the piano score back into the box and turned around.

"It's so late, brother, aren't you sleeping?"

Lu Huanzhi came over.

"Brother, you were in the study just now, so I hid outside. I heard everything you and my father said!"

An excited expression of expectation appeared on his face.

"Brother! Such an opportunity is as my father said, once in a lifetime! You must seize it! This time you step on Li Mu and let me breathe for my Lu family, and you must also give yourself a breath for your elder brother!"

Lu Jianzhi said nothing.

"Brother, you still don't forget the Gao Meimei. I think the Gao Meimei should be the same for you..."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Lu Jianzhi's face sank.

"I didn't talk nonsense!" Lu Huanzhi's way.

"Do you think I don't know? What you just read is the piano score given to you by the A-mei of Gao family! You were sick in Jiaozhou before, and I knew that you were sick. My third sister and I discussed with me and asked her to ask the A-mei of Gao family to help you! She was so dedicated that she wrote the piano score for you. Although it was not a letter, it was better than a letter. It can be seen that she also had an old love for you. Who is that Li Mu? It would be fine if he was a poor martial artist who reclaimed land in a place like Yicheng, but he also let the A-mei of Gao family suffer with him."

"Why can he marry the Gao family's sister?"

The more he said, the more excited he looked.

"Brother, you must win this battle! When we take Luoyang, who will dare to underestimate our Lu family?"

"One day Li Mu may die, and the Gao sister will be able to marry back and be my sister-in-law!"

"Huanzhi! Stop!"

Lu Jianzhi shouted sternly.

"The piano score of the Gao family's sister advised me to cheer up. How can I get the old feelings you said? If you dare to go out and talk nonsense and ruin her reputation, I will tell you that I can't spare you!"

Lu Huanzhi once loved Luo Shen a little, but knew that she looked down on her, and she respected her elder brother very much, so she never thought about competing with her elder brother.

But for him, she married another man, and she naturally hated Li Mu to the core.

He had never seen his elder brother teach him such a harsh and harsh lesson. He did not dare to shout again. He forced himself to suppress his jealousy and said, "Brother, don't worry. How could I be such an ignorant person?"

Lu Jianzhi's expression slowed down and said, "I will do my best to do the war. Don't worry. It's getting late, go to bed."

Lu Huanzhi glanced at the piano box he had just covered with haste, responded, and turned around.

...

Luo Shen was very satisfied with Jiang Tao's efficiency in doing things.

He said it that day, and in just half a month, he sent more than a dozen brand new spinning machines and looms. He said that the rest were still asking people to continue to do it, and how much needed it would be done in the future.

Luo Shen was very happy and gave him money and asked him to buy Duoduo's hemp materials from Qiuchi people.
