Volume Four, Three Southern Counties, Chapter 415, Appreciation of Emperor Chang'an
The leader was a eunuch, his voice was long and sharp, "Lord Marquis Lu, please come into the palace, His Majesty wants to see you."
The eunuch's voice was very loud.
Lu Jiuzhang in the inn had just laid down to rest when he heard it.
As a last resort, Lu Jiuzhang had no choice but to put on his clothes, tidy up his clothes a little, and walked outside the inn.
After getting on the eunuch's carriage, Lu Jiuzhang wanted to chat with the eunuch next to him, but after saying a few words, the eunuch spoke coldly, so Lu Jiuzhang stopped asking.
They walked all the way until they reached the royal study room, and then the eunuch left.
This is Lu Jiuzhang’s second time entering the palace.
Lu Jiuzhang was not very clear about the layout of the entire palace, and this was his first time in the imperial study room.
What a marvelous workmanship!
Lu Jiuzhang praised him and walked into the imperial study room.
It was already late at night, and a man in a yellow robe was still crouching at his desk correcting memorials.
Who else could that man be if he wasn't the current Emperor of Chang'an?
Lu Jiuzhang had never seen this Fourteenth Prince before, and had never even heard of him.
All we know is that in that battle for the throne, the fourteenth prince was inconspicuous.
Even the empress Zhou Yao is a dark horse.
At that time, two princes competed for the throne, and both lost in the end.
Zhou Yao, however, took a different approach and went to the royal group of elders to lobby the elders. At the same time, she roped in some aristocratic families and worked together to finally achieve her wish.
At that time, Emperor Zhou Qian of Chang'an was still a little kid and didn't even have the ability to compete.
Unexpectedly, he won the throne in the end.
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
Lu Jiuzhang bowed to Zhou Qian.
"Why don't you kneel?"
Chang'an Emperor Zhou Qian asked.
"Your Majesty is not a saint!"
Lu Jiuzhang said.
"Hahaha, I heard that when my imperial sister was on the throne, you refused to kneel down and said that my imperial sister did not have the qualifications. So what about me, do I still not have the qualifications?"
Chang'an Emperor Zhou Qian laughed and said.
"If your Majesty is qualified, I will kneel down!"
Lu Jiuzhang said.
"You are the first person who dares to disobey me." Zhou Qian's expression changed and he said displeasedly, "But you are still a talented person, I don't intend to punish you."
"Will you be mine?"
"As long as you can become my man, I will vigorously cultivate the Iron Blood Camp in the future. There is only one person in ten thousand who can penetrate the demon realm, and he can stop the demon beasts and defeat the Shuizhou County rebels. With your ability, in the future,
He will definitely become the second God of War."
"When you and I, the monarch and our ministers, join forces to suppress internal strife and stop external monsters, it will surely be a good story."
When Zhou Qian looked at Lu Jiuzhang, there was a little more hope in his eyes.
Like the new emperor, he has no available people.
All the officials have their own thoughts.
If you want to cultivate your own people, you still have a long way to go.
Lu Jiuzhang is undoubtedly a talent that can be won over.
"Have I not always been His Majesty's?"
Lu Jiuzhang asked rhetorically.
"This is not the other. What I want is my confidant. You should understand." Emperor Chang'an said with a smile.
If Lu Jiuzhang dared to say no today, he would not let Lu Jiuzhang out of the palace today.
"I have a few requests!"
Lu Jiuzhang cupped his hands and said.
"You are the first person to propose conditions to me. After all, as long as the conditions are not outrageous, I will agree." Chang'an Emperor Zhou Qian said.
Being able to make requests shows that Lu Jiuzhang is qualified.
"The first point is to train the Iron Blood Battalion as personal guards and provide them with a lot of resources."
Lu Jiuzhang said.
"But, since you are my confidant, I will naturally work hard to train you and train the Iron-Blooded Battalion." The new emperor nodded, "But I also have requirements. You must improve your cultivation and be in charge of the Iron-Blooded Battalion, which will waste time.
, I will send someone to assist you."
It's said to be assisting, but it's actually monitoring.
Emperor Chang'an was worried about such a dormant tiger.
"Yes!" Lu Jiuzhang nodded, and then mentioned the second condition, "I want to take people to meet the elders of the royal family."
"Why?"
Zhou Qian was puzzled.
"There are some personal matters mixed in, don't worry, it's not for Zhou Yao, it's my private matter." Lu Jiuzhang said.
"Okay! I will recommend it to you."
Chang'an Emperor Zhou Qian nodded.
Even if Lu Jiuzhang didn't tell him, he would still know from the royal family elders.
"The third thing is that I need a lot of training resources to help me break through to the third level of martial arts." Lu Jiuzhang looked at Chang'an Emperor Zhou Qian, "Once I become a third-level martial arts warrior, I will have more say in the court."
"Your Majesty, you now have someone to rely on!"
Chang'an Emperor Zhou Qian nodded again.
These requirements are not excessive.
"I will provide you with the resources of the royal family to help you break through." Zhou Qian said, "The cultivation resources of the royal family are better than Qian Ji Tower, better than the three major sects, and even better than all the ruins sects."
After all, he is a giant who has controlled thirty-six counties and hundreds of millions of land.
The royal family is the largest family and has too many resources.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Lu Jiuzhang handed over his hand.
"Okay, let's go down. I still have to stay up late to correct the memorial." Emperor Chang'an said.
"Your Majesty should also pay attention to rest."
Lu Jiuzhang looked at the memorials on the table. There were at least several hundred copies.
"Relaxation is the way to go. Thank you for your hard work, Your Majesty." Lu Jiuzhang gave a rare compliment.
Because it really has benefits.
"Hahaha, Master Lu also thinks that I am hardworking?" Emperor Chang'an said with a smile, "Master Lu is still discerning."
Emperor Chang'an was secretly happy!
It's not easy to be an emperor for the first time.
"Your Majesty is busy now. I have to take my leave."
Lu Jiuzhang left the palace and returned to the inn.
As soon as he entered the inn, a large group of people rushed to the inn.
The leader was still the eunuch who came to Lu Jiuzhang before.
Behind him followed a team of golden-armored captains, which was quite spectacular.
"It is said that the demon-slaying envoy of the Demon-Slaying Department, the head of the Demon-Slaying Department, has an audience with Hou Lu Jiuzhang of Ten Thousand Households."
The eunuch said loudly.
Lu Jiuzhang was a little confused, but he still walked out.
"Master Lu, please accept the order."
The eunuch looked at Lu Jiuzhang with a smile and said.
"Your Majesty, Lu Jiuzhang accepts the order."
Lu Jiuzhang still did not kneel down, but only bent down to bow.
"Wanhuhou Lu Jiuzhang has excellent abilities, talents and learning. He first won the battle in the sky, then fought with monsters, and led the Iron Blood Battalion to defeat the Shuizhou County rebels. He is indispensable."
"Promote Hou Lu Jiuzhang of ten thousand households to the title of Duke Yiyun, and provide food for one hundred thousand households! In addition, he will be rewarded with treasures from heaven and earth..."
The eunuch finished reading the imperial edict and then looked at Lu Jiuzhang, "Master Lu, congratulations!"
This is a great promotion!
Reach the sky in one step!
There are 100,000 households in the city, and each household has five people, which is 500,000 people.
In other words, Lu Jiuzhang's fiefdom was almost as big as a county.
All the annual payments and taxes of people in the county belong to Lu Jiuzhang.
This is already the limit that ordinary people can reach!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Lu Jiuzhang thanked him again.
"Changshui County is now Mr. Lu's inheritance." The eunuch said with a smile, "The seals and tokens are all here. Please keep them, Mr. Lu." This chapter has been completed!
