Chapter 539 The prince is the master of Xiao Qinglong
In the open main hall, sunlight penetrates through the glazed windows, illuminating the interior with mottled light and shadow, making it look colorful.
As soon as Lu Yunhong stepped in, a familiar snake raised its head and grinned at him.
Lu Yunhong was so happy that he reached out to fish it, but he didn't want anyone to be faster than him.
It was Zhou Ling, his hair was disheveled, and he looked wild and unruly. However, the purple mark on that half of his face could still be seen, and the large swollen face had not subsided. It seemed that Zhou Ling had not taken the antidote.
Lu Yunhong retracted his hand and saw Zhou Ling approaching the cubicle holding the white-tailed snake. A cold voice came: "Master Lu, this is not the place you should be!"
Lu Yunhong said: "I have nothing to do, so come and see the prince."
Zhou Ling sneered and said: "Master Lu has achieved what he wanted now, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?"
Lu Yunhong walked into the cubicle, and just as he was about to speak, he saw the white-tailed snake flying towards him with a hiss, opened its mouth, and was about to bite it hard.
At the same time, Zhou Ling shouted sharply: "Bai Shi, come back!"
The seven inches that Lu Yunhong reached out to grab fell short. The white-tailed snake fell limply to the ground and crawled back with its head drooping.
Before Lu Yunhong could recover from the shock, he heard Zhou Ling shouting: "Qingfeng, see you off!"
Lu Yunhong looked impartially towards Zhou Ling, and Zhou Ling was also looking at him. The burning hatred in Zhou Ling's eyes was undeniable, and it seemed more intense and unwilling than before, as if his wings had been broken by him.
But as far as he knew, Zhou Ling was trapped here voluntarily.
Lu Yunhong was confused. It wasn't until Qingfeng reminded him in a low voice that he followed Qingfeng out.
He said: "Aren't you raising that snake?"
Qingfeng scratched his head and said in frustration: "Yes, but the little green dragon has recognized its master, and now the prince is the master of the little green dragon."
"Recognize the master?" Lu Yunhong was very confused.
Qingfeng wanted to say something more, but Zhou Ling's gentle voice came from the room: "Qingfeng."
At the same time, there was the sound of the little green dragon stretching and retracting the letter, which seemed to be very impatient.
Qingfeng sighed and said, "I understand."
After saying that, he looked at Lu Yunhong helplessly and whispered: "Let's go."
After going out, Qingfeng said to Lu Yunhong: "He was bitten by the little green dragon the day before yesterday. He fell into a coma for a long time. When he woke up, he felt like a different person."
"The emperor went to see him yesterday when he came back, and seemed to persuade him to leave."
"Master Lu, please go back quickly. If you have any questions, ask Eunuch Yu. He will know everything."
Lu Yunhong nodded slightly and said to Qingfeng before leaving: "I understand, please be careful."
Qingfeng smiled naively and said, "Except for cleaning, I usually don't go in. Mr. Lu, don't worry."
Lu Yunhong nodded and left in a hurry.
Because he could hear his wife's voice last night, he thought Zhou Ling had left the palace. Now it seems that something happened. Zhou Ling didn't leave, but he could hear his wife's voice again.
I don't know if this is good or bad for him.
Lu Yunhong went to the East Palace, originally expecting to find Yu Deshui, but unexpectedly he saw Hua Zimo instead.
Hua Zimo invited him to drink tea in the pavilion first, and then asked the young eunuch to see if Yu Deshui was free. Who knew that Yu Deshui didn't come, but Ye Zhiqiu did.
When Hua Zimo saw this, he led the people back and left them a place to talk.
Lu Yunhong asked how Emperor Zhengxing was doing.
Ye Zhiqiu said: "I just caught the wind and cold, it's not a big problem."
"But the emperor asked me about Mingxin's whereabouts, which I find very strange."
Lu Yunhong's eyes were slightly dark, but he said with a smile on his face: "You think it's strange, but it's not the same to me?"
"But it's not like he can find Mingxin if he wants to. If he really finds it, wouldn't it be a good thing for you?"
Ye Zhiqiu chuckled and said sheepishly: "So when I heard that the emperor summoned me, I rushed here without stopping. The Mingxin Shenlong has disappeared without a trace, and it is really difficult to find him unless he is willing to show up."
"I've thought about it. It's a matter of great importance to the emperor and the country. Mingxin should show up."
Lu Yunhong said: "That's good, then you can practice Zen and discuss Taoism together again."
After hearing Lu Yunhong's words, Ye Zhiqiu looked at his darkened face and hesitated to speak.
Lu Yunhong asked: "Do you want to tell me something? About me?"
Ye Zhiqiu sighed: "I don't know if what I said is accurate, but you should be more careful these days."
Lu Yunhong asked doubtfully: "How can I be in trouble if I say this?"
Ye Zhiqiu's face was solemn, and he nodded and said: "It's almost the same. When I was in Wuxi, I checked your face for you. I didn't dare to tell you at that time because..."
"In short, you must not act cautiously and don't be too impulsive."
Seeing that he seemed to have something to hide, Lu Yunhong stopped asking questions and nodded, "Don't worry, I'll be careful."
After bidding farewell to Ye Zhiqiu, Lu Yunhong left the palace.
On the ninth day of February, the Enke Spring Festival of the first year of Zhengxing began.
Although this is an opportunity for students from poor families in the world to jump to the dragon gate, it is also an opportunity for many aristocratic families to stand out. Naturally, the capital is talking about it and it is very lively.
However, just when a faction in the capital was prospering and guessing who would be the top scholar in the Gongyuan this year, Babaili urgently reported that Wenzhou, Taizhou, and Ningbo in Zhejiang were successively attacked by Japanese pirates, burning, killing, looting, and committing all kinds of evil.
The local commander resisted to the death and died for his country. Wang Rui, who was originally handling the case in Hangzhou, had brought Lu Dayuan, the commander in chief of Hangzhou, to support him on the first day he learned the news. Now he is deeply involved in the war and is fighting the Japanese pirates.
Fight to the death.
Lu Mansion, Lu Yunhong was shocked after receiving the news.
In the previous life, there were Japanese pirates, but most of them disguised themselves as water thieves and attacked nearby fishermen at night, causing the fishermen to suffer terribly. In the end, the imperial court sent troops to encircle and suppress them, and they were all wiped out.
But counting the time, it only happened thirty years later.
However, this sudden change happened now, which made it difficult for him not to think too much.
While Wang Xiu searched for the historical events in his memory during this period, he asked Lu Yunhong doubtfully: "Were the Japanese pirates finally wiped out? Will my fourth brother be fine?"
After finishing her words, she paused herself.
Because at this time in her previous life, her fourth brother was no longer here!
Wang Xiu felt sour and couldn't help but shed tears.
Lu Yunhong held her hand firmly and said, "Don't worry, the Japanese pirates will be wiped out in the end, and fourth brother will be fine."
"I'll go to the palace first. The court is going to send troops this time. I guess my eldest brother may ask for a fight."
Wang Xiudao: "He has always led the army. Can he lead the navy?"
Lu Yunhong said: "This is what the emperor will consider, so he should send an additional deputy general."
"Vice general?"
Wang Xiu thought of a person, Qin Hai, the naval commander of Guangzhou, but this person now...
Lu Yunhong told her with a smile: "Don't think about it, Qin Hai hasn't been born yet."
"But..." The most famous battle between the Dayan navy and the Japanese pirates in history was the most famous Battle of Taizhou in Qinhai.
Could it be that... this war was fought decades in advance?
Wang Xiu looked at Lu Yunhong in surprise, wondering why such a big change happened?
Lu Yunhong said: "Do you still remember Zhou Ling's group of subordinates before? They fled to the sea..."
Wang Xiu's eyes widened in surprise and he said in disbelief: "You mean, they colluded with the Japanese pirates?"
Lu Yunhong said: "If they have Dayan's troop deployment plan and internal support, the Japanese pirates will certainly take the risk. But don't worry, this is just my guess. I will tell you everything when I come back."
After Lu Yunhong finished speaking, he hurried to the palace.
