70. Lu You Comes to Bianjing

"Commander, there is a woman outside the palace who wants to see you!"

Suddenly at this moment a general came in.

"What does that woman look like?"

"Did it say who it was?"

Xu Xian quickly collected the jade seal from Yang Polu, and then asked the general.

"The woman looks quite distinctive. She said she was from Qingcheng Mountain, but she didn't say who she was?"

The general responded.

"Qingcheng Mountain?"

"Could it be that my white lady is back?"

"If my white lady really comes to see me, I have to pack myself up and go see her!"

Xu Xian was naturally thinking of his wife at this time.

After all, he and his wife, White Lady, have not seen each other for a long time.

So Xu Xian hurriedly changed his clothes, cleaned up his image, and then left the palace to meet his wife.

But when Xu Xian walked out of the palace, the person he saw was not his white lady, but Lu Waner, whom he had had a night of fun in Qingcheng Mountain.

Suddenly, when Xu Xian saw Lu Waner again, he felt a little embarrassed and didn't know how to speak.

"how?"

"Does Marshal Xu not recognize my daughter?"

"Shuai Xu, you are such a heartless person!"

At this time, it was Lu Waner who spoke first.

"Of course I do, I do!"

"Please come in quickly, please come in!"

Xu Xian naturally knew that it was not the time to discuss private matters with Lu Waner in public.

Later, Xu Xian took Lu Wan'er to the emperor's palace alone, and then asked Yang Polu and Yue Lin to guard the outside for him.

"Wan'er!"

"You...how did you come to Bianjing?"

"Where is your brother, Mr. Lu You?"

After Xu Xian invited Lu Wan'er to sit down in front of the collapse, he began to want to break the awkward situation between the two.

"Are you talking about my third brother?"

"It's waiting for me outside the city now!"

"My brother heard that Bianjing was recaptured by our Song Army. He was so happy that he took me here to have some fun. I didn't expect that you were the one who recaptured Bianjing!"

Lu Waner responded.

"That's it!"

"Then... what about your third brother's misunderstanding of me?"

Xu Xian certainly still had fresh memories of Lu You holding a sword and almost killing him that day.

"You only ask my third brother, but you don't care about how much suffering I have suffered recently and how much injustice I have suffered."

"Isn't it possible that the misunderstanding between my third brother and you was also because of what you did to me?"

Lu Wan'er suddenly burst into tears.

"Then...then what happened to you after I left Qingcheng Mountain?"

Of course Xu Xian wanted to know what happened next to Lu Waner and Lu You.

"Since you, the heartless person, ran away, Third Brother and I...!"

Lu Waner recalled.

It turns out that after Xu Xian escaped from Qingcheng Mountain, Lu You took the sword and wanted to continue chasing Xu Xian, but was pulled back by Lu Waner.

Lu You was naturally angry, scolded Lu Waner severely, and even took Lu Waner back to Shaoxing for teaching.

Lu Wan'er naturally knew that if other people in the family found out about her being taken over, the consequences would be disastrous, so she also went down the mountain to escape.

As a result, Lu Waner fled all the way to the county town not far down the mountain, and happened to encounter Xu Xian who was unconscious on the ground on the road.

Lu Waner wanted to take this opportunity to kill Xu Xian to vent her anger, but she couldn't bear it, so she rescued Xu Xian back to the inn, leaving all the money she brought with her on the table, and even asked the store owner to tell Xu Xian that she saved it.

Then Lu Waner left the inn and went to a nearby cliff alone, intending to throw herself off the cliff and end her life.

Unexpectedly, when she was about to throw herself off the cliff, she was saved by someone. The person who saved Lu Waner was actually her third brother, Lu You.

At this time, Lu You's anger towards Xu Xian had almost disappeared.

It turns out that Lu You had a great appreciation for Xu Xian's talents since he met Xu Xian, and he also believed that Xu Xian was the only person who could save the Song Dynasty and regain the Central Plains.

Now that Lu You calmed down, he felt that marrying his sister to Xu Xian might not be a bad thing, so Lu You decided to help Xu Xian.

When he heard that Xu Xian was bullied by the bun shop owner, Lu You was naturally furious and told the story to a nearby green forest hero whom he had befriended, hoping that the hero would lead someone to punish the bun shop owner.

But unexpectedly, this green forest hero misunderstood Lu You's meaning and directly made the bun shop owner.

After Lu You learned the news, he also understood that it was all his fault, so Lu You took the initiative to go to the county government and surrender.

In this way, Lu You was imprisoned, and Lu Waner was implicated and was also imprisoned.

But when the county magistrate submitted Lu You's charges to the Ministry of Punishment, the official who handled the paperwork happened to be Lu You's former friend.

Seeing this, the official immediately dismissed Lu You's indictment and asked someone to send a private letter to the county magistrate, explaining Lu You's family background and asking him to release Lu You.

After the county magistrate heard about Lu You's prominent life and his status as an official of the imperial court, he naturally did not dare to visit Lu You anymore. He concluded the case hastily on the grounds that the owner of the bun shop had burned himself to death, and forced Lu You to

Let it go.

Lu You originally wanted to return to Shaoxing and apologize again, but when Lu You arrived in Jingzhou by boat, he heard that Emperor Zhao Gou had regained power and began to order all generals to stop the Northern Expedition.

But what people around were talking about was that the passionate Marshal Xu did not obey Emperor Zhao Gou's order and insisted on continuing the Northern Expedition.

Lu You thought that Marshal Xu was an anti-Jin marshal re-activated by the Central Government, so he temporarily gave up the idea of ​​returning to Lin'an to collect his guilt. He wanted to help the passionate Marshal Xu to continue his crusade against the Tatars, and wanted to follow Marshal Xu to death in the battle.

Being on the battlefield can be considered as atonement for the sin of unintentional murder.

After the brothers Lu You and Lu Waner arrived in Yingzhou, they immediately heard the news that Marshal Xu had regained Bianjing, and this Marshal Xu was actually the Prime Minister Xu Xian who did what he did to his sister.

Lu You was embarrassed to see Xu Xian at this time, so he wanted to go to Bianjing first for fun.

After arriving in Bianjing, Lu Wan'er was not as patient as her brother, so she took advantage of her brother's time to go out alone and quietly came to see Marshal Xu to confirm whether Marshal Xu was really the betrayer back then.

"Oh I see!"

"It was me, Xu Xian, who was impulsive at first!"

"But Wan'er, remember, I, Xu Xian, will definitely not let you down!"

Of course Xu Xian had to comfort Lu Waner first.

After all, in this era, no man can have three wives and four concubines. Xu Xian still thinks about three palaces and six courtyards, so what does it mean to have multiple Lu Waners?

After comforting him, Xu Xian asked Lu Waner to take him to find his third brother, Lu You.

After all, Xu Xian understood Lu You's character. He was not the kind of person who would bow to him first, and Lu You was the second person Xu Xian admired most in the Southern Song Dynasty, besides Xin Qiji.
