Chapter 883 Mother and Son

Chapter 883 Mother and Son
In a few days, it is not possible to visit many places.

Fortunately, the Heluo area is not very large, so Lu Xiangsheng made a rough survey of the people's sentiments in Luoyang, Mengjin, Yancheng and other places.

Although these places have not reached the point of social order where "doors are not closed at night, and roads are not picked up", there are also many injustices, such as rebels looting the people, etc., but overall, it is no problem to boast that "the order is orderly, and the people live and work in peace and contentment" of.

Considering that the rebels had just occupied this place for less than a year, they fought again and again.

For Lu Xiangsheng, who once worked hard to govern Yunyang, but at the same time faced the threat of "rogue bandits", he deeply sympathized with it, and couldn't help being amazed.

Yunyang is a land of one government, and Henan is also a land of one government.

Although Henan Mansion is much richer than Yunyang Mansion, the difficulties faced by King Shun and Lu Xiangsheng are completely different.

After Lu Xiangsheng arrived in Yunyang, there were thieves everywhere. The available soldiers under his command were no more than a thousand, and the available pay was no more than a thousand.

If it weren't for Tang Hui, the governor of Huguang, to help, Lu Xiangsheng might not even be able to eat.

Not to mention that in order to wipe out the bandits who hid in Jingxiang Mountain, Lu Xiangsheng had to rely heavily on guest troops from all over the world.

However, all the guest soldiers made a fuss about their salaries, and Lu Xiangsheng had no choice.

Thinking of himself and others, Lu Xiangsheng couldn't imagine the predicament that King Shun, who had just occupied Henan Mansion, would face.

On one side is the imperial army ready to go, ready to annihilate the "shun thieves" at any time;

If it is not handled properly, it will end in defeat.

As a result, King Shun won consecutive battles, not only conquering a huge territory, but also taking care of the lives of the people. He is really a god-man!
If you don't do things, you don't know how difficult it is to do things. Lu Xiangsheng is a person who does things, so he naturally knows how hard it is.

Originally, although Lu Xiangsheng surrendered to Zhang Shun, he was just like Hong Chengchou, convinced but not convinced.It's just that the old mother had already "surrendered" to the rebel army, so she had no choice but to do so.

Now that he has been "traveling in the mountains and rivers" for several days, his mentality will inevitably change.

The reason why the rebels are called "thieves" is because wherever they go, they burn, kill, prostitution and looting, they do all sorts of evil, no matter the gentry or the common people hate them deeply.

People humiliate themselves first and then others; trees rot first and then worms become moths!

All the rebels took their own humiliation and regarded themselves as "thieves and bandits", so the common people hated it and the gentry hated it!

However, Zhang Shun led the rebel army, the pay and food were on schedule, and the military discipline was strict. Wherever he went, the people cheered and rejoiced, which was a hundred times stronger than the officers and soldiers.

Lu Xiangsheng has been familiar with the books of sages and sages since he was a child. In addition to being loyal, filial and righteous, he also has the ambition to cultivate himself, regulate his family, govern the country and the world!

Seeing that Zhang Shun has the qualifications of a wise monarch now, it is inevitable that heaven and man will fight.

On the one hand, they feel that loyal ministers do not serve two masters, and breaking festivals is not done by righteous people; on the other hand, they feel that "the people are the most important, the country is second, and the emperor is the least." Yes?
Unknowingly, when the appointed day came, Lu Xiangsheng had to give up the "play" with regret, and Shi Shiran, Yang Lukai, Gu Xian and his personal guards returned to Luoyang City.

On that day, Zhang Shun also got up early, dressed neatly, and led Wang Jinyi and Gao Guiying to visit Mrs. Lu.

Mrs. Lu is getting old, she doesn't sleep much, and she gets up before dawn.

Mrs. Lu Wang was quite filial, so she got up early and made meals for the old lady to have breakfast.

Now that Lu Xiangjin and Lu Xiangguan have followed Wei Zhiyou to Yiyang and Yongning to recruit soldiers, they are the only two left at home, a bit idle.

Mrs. Lu then instructed: "Go and rest, it's boring to stay with me, an old lady!"

"If you have free time, you should pay more visits to Mrs. Li. This woman is a lucky one, so you should go and get some!"

"Yes, mother-in-law!" Mrs. Lu replied, knowing what Mrs. Lu meant.

She couldn't help but cautiously replied: "I've gone to the pharmacy to grab the medicine and made it into a honeyed pill. I'll just wait for the owner to come back!"

"Alas!" Speaking of Lu Xiangsheng, Mrs. Lu couldn't help but sigh, "I have nothing wrong with this son, but I am obsessed with official duties and have no interest in private affairs. It really gives me a headache."

Lu Wangshi was speechless, so he fell silent.

Mrs. Lu also stopped talking, and the two looked at each other speechlessly.Just when the atmosphere was getting more and more awkward, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Mrs. Lu was taken aback, and she couldn't help talking to herself, "Could it be Mrs. Li's visit?"

"No way, she is taking the child with her. When the work is done, it will be almost noon!" Lu Wang replied, getting up and going to open the door.

"I'll go!" Mrs. Lu frowned when she heard this, got up and walked to the door, opened the door and saw that it was King Shun who came to visit.

Mrs. Lu couldn't help giving a salute, and apologized: "Now there are only me and my wife in the room. It's so inconvenient. Please forgive me, King Shun!"

"It's nothing, I came here to inform the old lady. I just got the news that General Lu will return this morning, please make preparations early." Zhang Shun said with a smile on his face.

"Ah? My son is coming back!" The old lady couldn't help being overjoyed, "Why don't you come in, King Shun?"

"Forget it, I'll see you later!" Hehe, just now someone guarded me like a thief, now it's easy to talk again.

Zhang Shun waved his hands and said, "I won't bother you when you meet your mother and son today. Tomorrow, I will prepare a banquet to cleanse you up. Please be sure to be present, Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Lu."

"Is this not good?" Mrs. Lu couldn't help hesitating.

"Family banquet, just our two families, no outsiders!" Zhang Shun emphasized with a smile.

"Then thank you, King Shun, for that!" Mrs. Lu responded, and the two exchanged some polite words, and Zhang took his leave by the way.

Not long after, Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Lu finished packing in a panic, and hurried to the north gate of Luoyang.

The two stood on the city wall, and after a while, they saw a group of people and horses from afar, with flags erected, coming from far and near.

Mrs. Lu couldn't help but excitedly said: "My son, my mother-in-law's old eyes are dim, and she can't see carefully. Do you think that is the flag of Jiandou?"

"Ah, my mother-in-law got it wrong. It's a caravan, it seems they are here to buy leather goods!" Mrs. Lu built a pergola with her hands, and said after watching for a long time.

After a while, another group of seven or eight people came over Shi Shi.

Mrs. Lu couldn't help asking again: "Is this my son?"

Mrs. Lu shook her head again, and replied regretfully: "This time, it is a silk merchant from Shanxi who came to buy silk, and the name is written on the flag!"

"Hey! Now I know what it means to be hopeless!" The old lady couldn't help but sighed.

Just as they were talking, the two of them suddenly felt that the city wall under their feet trembled a little, and they couldn't help but feel strange. They only heard the sound of horseshoes coming from far and near.

When the two looked up, they saw a group of cavalry surrounded by a man, and they were coming all the way from the north.

"My son!" Mrs. Lu couldn't help but shouted suddenly.

Not long after, the group of people rushed to the north gate of Luoyang City, and the two of them were watching clearly from the city.

The leader is riding a dragon horse about one foot long from head to tail, without white spots and variegated colors, with a heroic appearance and a magnificent appearance.

"My son!" Mrs. Lu couldn't help but yelled, tears streaming down her face.And Lu Wang also called out "Husband" in a low voice, but it's a pity that no one knew about it.

As if Lu Xiangsheng had sensed it, he raised his head and looked up the tower, and saw two familiar figures.

He couldn't help but hastily got off his horse, knelt down on the ground, and shouted loudly: "Mother, the child is late!"

 Sorry everyone, I came back too late today, this chapter update has just been written.
