Chapter 42
"No, let's ask for a few more days off? Anyway, you have good grades, and there is no problem at all in the promotion exam."

When Lu Weimang was ill, Lu Qingshan, who said he wanted to practice Lu Weimang so that she had no time to think about it, was reluctant to let his daughter go back to school so soon. Yesterday, he persuaded him for a long time, and this morning, he chattered again and again. non-stop.

"Girl, we don't want to learn from those sour scholars, and follow the rules exactly. According to your counting grades, does it make a difference if you go to school one day more and go to school one day less? Usually you still say that the school has more rules. , not to rest, why not take advantage of this opportunity to hide at home and rest for a few more days! Butler, what do you think?"

He saw that after persuading him for a long time, his daughter's expression remained unchanged, so he couldn't help but call the housekeeper to help him out.

The butler stood by the dining table, smiling and saying nothing.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade his daughter, the housekeeper also stood by and watched, Lu Qingshan had no choice but to say, "Then you should wear more clothes."

Cheng Yang smiled when he heard it, but Chang Feng smiled without showing any face, "Father, in today's weather, people can't wait to be shirtless. You're good, and let sister wear a few more, that's boring." Heatstroke."

"Bah, bah, bah!" Lu Qingshan hastily bawled a few times, "Kids are eloquent, don't talk nonsense."

Seeing his father like this, Changfeng also covered his mouth, fearing that he could speak fluently and make his sister sick, so he looked at Lu Weimang worriedly.

Cheng Yang couldn't help but look over.

Lu Weimang, who was at the center of the topic, put the last bite of buttery pine stuffed roll into his mouth, wiped his oily fingers and mouth with the handkerchief on the table, and took a slow sip of tea.

"Why are you looking at me? I was just sick, so you all took the opportunity to be lazy, right? It's time to go to the government, to go to school, and when my entrance exam is over, if you don't have an excellent grade to give I will deduct all the pocket money!"

Seeing that Lu Weimang was as energetic as usual, without the weakness of the previous two days, Lu Qingshan, Lu Chengyang and Lu Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief, and Lu Qingshan patted his daughter's head with his palm, "Okay, daddy will work hard to get promoted at the end of the year." Wait a minute, get out of those grass-headed troops, and if something happens at home in the future, at least you can speak up."

Rubbing my daughter's hair, seeing that her extraordinarily neat little bun was a bit disheveled, she flung her sleeves and walked away proudly.

Cheng Yang also followed suit.In the past year, he has grown a little taller, and when he stands up he is two heads taller than Lu Weimang when he is sitting, making him look like a good boy.He also imitated his father and rubbed sister's hair. It was thin and soft, which was very different from his own thorny hair. If you want to be at home, you can stay at home, and you don’t need to go out to work for the family business.”

After speaking, put down your hands and walk outside.

Seeing that the two older men in the family have set an example, Changfeng tried his best to stand on tiptoe and patted the little bun on Sister's head, "Changfeng will work hard too, Sister will wait for me for a few more years."

Lu Weimang's face was dark from the moment his father reached out, and now when Changfeng jumped out, he asked Xiaoxia to bring him the mirror.

Seeing that the unruly hair he had combed with great difficulty had become unkempt again, he couldn't help but take two quick steps, walked to the threshold of the main hall, looked at the three people who were walking fast, ran a few steps to chase after them, and shouted, "You guys, did you do it on purpose? I combed my hair with great difficulty, and now it's messed up again. I rested for a few days. I originally wanted to make a grand appearance in the class this time. I ruined..."

Lu Weimang ran up here to chase the three instigators, and when they heard the sound of footsteps, the three quickly took two steps and ran out of the gate.

Lu Qingshan got on his horse and when he saw the girl running to the door, he raised his whip triumphantly, "My girl, don't chase after her, your hair will loosen in a while, you don't have time to comb it again, haha."

After finishing speaking, he flattered the horse and left.

He followed Cheng Yang and Chang Feng's carriage, and saw the two lying on the carriage window, with the curtains lifted, looking side by side at Lu Weimang who had chased to the gate, "Sister, don't you like oiling your hair the most? Tell people it looks like you haven't washed your hair for a few days, and my brother will help you remove the oil, so don't thank you."

Lu Weimang blushed, "Where is the oil drain? It's just that the broken hair is sticking up, I'll press it with oil."

"Sister, you don't need to comb anymore, this is just right. Let's go..."

"Two brats, they have learned to make fun of me."

Lu Weimang stood at the door, watched the three go away, then looked back at Xiaoxia and the housekeeper, "Is it oily? Are you okay?"

Xiao Xia and the housekeeper nodded with restrained smiles.

My young lady usually likes to pretend to be mature, but she has a white and tender appearance, black and white eyes, soft hair that likes to curl up, and when she walks, she has a temperament of jumping when she thinks of happy things , making it difficult for her to pretend to be mature and succeed.So people who are familiar with it always like to tease the lady intentionally or unintentionally.

Lu Weimang went back to the gate, picked up the mirror in the butler's hand from the side of the door, looked left and right for a long time, and then returned the mirror to the butler in frustration, "Forget it, I won't oil it in the future, I'm also awkward. "

After finishing speaking, he took Xiaoxia's own small basket and prepared to go to school.It's too late to be late.

However, Lu Weimang didn't know what to think of at the moment, she didn't look at her feet, and staggered for a while, she quickly took two steps and pretended nothing happened, looked around, and then turned back to look at the housekeeper and Xiaoxia. He smiled and looked up at the sky.

Lu Weimang stroked his hair, a little embarrassed, "The threshold won't pass for a few days, it seems to be higher than I imagined..."

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head, stepped into the carriage, and whispered, "Hurry up!"

The carriage started to move, Lu Weimang breathed a sigh of relief in the carriage, and patted his flushed face when no one was there.

Her perception of herself is that of a majestic patriarch and a caring big sister.Who knew it would always collapse, Lu Weimang sighed.

Here, Lu Weimang's carriage is going to the Guozijian on the west side of the palace, and Huo Jing and his party come out of General Huo's mansion on the west side of the palace.

It was still early at this time, and there were not many pedestrians and carriages on the street. Lu Weimang's coachman saw General Huo and his party marching on a flying horse from a distance, and turned to another road ahead of time.

"Old Zhao, what's wrong?"

Lu Weimang felt that the route seemed wrong, so he raised his voice and asked.

"It seems that General Huo is about to go out of the city. It is inconvenient for us to go to the opposite side of the carriage. Please avoid it in advance. Don't worry, Miss, you can also go to the Imperial College by taking the detour from Lan Kwai Fong."

"Ah."

When Lu Weimang heard General Huo and others passing by, he held back his temper and waited for the sound of galloping horses to subside before lifting the curtain on the side of the carriage, and only saw the backs of the horses.

Over there, Lin Chen's eyes were sharp, and he saw the Lu family logo on the carriage at a glance.

Glancing at his master, he whispered to Ding Yi next to him, "It seemed to be the Lu family's carriage just now."

Ding Yi ignored it.

Lin Chen had no choice but to shut up, and the group went straight out of the city.

There is a team of Huo Jing's troops outside the city. These people are Huo Jing's personal guards, the confidant guards who accompanied him to fight in the north and south.This trip to Beijing did not intend to stay longer, so the guards were camped outside the city.

"The last general, Cao Hui, pay my respects to the general."

Seeing Huo Jing coming out, the group bowed to meet him.

"Get up."

"General."

Huo Jing stopped his horse in front of the guards, and confessed to Cao Hui, the deputy leader of the guards, "The Marquis of Qin has already prepared the food and grass for the early stage, we just need to rush to Tongguan as soon as possible."

"But Beijiang was short of food and grass some time ago, so it failed to meet the enemy and was beaten to the bottom of the city by Beidi?"

Cao Hui looked like he was in his thirties. The armor and beard covered his face, but his whole person revealed an unstoppable air of wind and frost. At first glance, he looked like an old man who had experienced many battles.

In fact, he is indeed an old man beside Huo Jing's father. He is now by Huo Jing's side, obeying Huo Jing's orders, and assisting him to lead the army in battle.

Huo Jing usually has no expression on his face and speaks solemnly and coldly, but he still has patience and kindness towards his elders. Hearing Cao Pianjiang's question, he patiently explained, "Last year was indeed a shortage of food and grass. Your Majesty has been exempted from taxation and corvee for three consecutive years. , coupled with the drought in some parts of eastern Hebei last year, and the continuous banditry in Jingyang and Yangzhou, the treasury was empty. Last year, northern Xinjiang took advantage of the fire and robbed. The imperial court originally wanted to appease one or two, but at the end of last year, the imperial court opened a new salt road. Only then did I have the confidence to use troops against Beijiang. This time His Majesty called me back to let me connect with Qin Hou, and the plan is finalized, and the sooner the action, the better."

"Good! The timing is just right. In a year, the three months of June, July and August are the best time to fight against northern Xinjiang. The right time and place are on our side. The young master will definitely be able to fight the Northwest when he goes this time! "

The black cloud-like team was heading north like a sharp arrow, but the team of thousands of people seemed to have the momentum of thousands of troops.

Lu Qingshan knew a thing or two about the imperial court's use of troops, because in the past few days, the Ministry of War's office has been sorting out information such as the map of northern Xinjiang and the distribution of forces.

Lu Weimang and Qin Xuanze didn't know anything about it.

One is academically heavy.When Lu Weimang returned to the Imperial College, he didn't seem to believe in evil in the economics exam, and kept calling Lu Weimang emphatically, as if to make her make up for the missing classics class immediately.

Qin Xuan didn't care too much.His eldest brother and second brother are aiming at court, and he himself has always been lazy.Even if his father asked him to pay attention to the imperial court, his ambition was not here, and he was mediocre. He couldn't be like his elder brother and second brother, who could get a little knowledge of the imperial court through one or two imperial decrees, and gain insight into the recent policy inclinations of the imperial court.

He went to school with Lu Weimang every day, and after school, he made appointments with Lu Weimang or other friends for horseback riding, archery and hunting.

Qin Hou originally hated iron for being weak, and wanted to catch Qin Xuan and teach him a lesson, but was stopped by his wife, "Ah Xuan has lived like this since he was a child, you can't expect him to eat a fat man with one bite. He is still young and has a serious heart for playing. Some. When he grows up, he will naturally have something serious in his eyes."

Qin Xuan didn't know that he had escaped a catastrophe, so he just dragged Lu Weimang, who hadn't come to school for a few days, to see the baby he ordered.

"I specially ordered it for you. You are sick this time, and I went to see you. The house is too shabby. I ordered some furniture for girls and other things for you. You can take it back and use it."

Lu Weimang had a heartbroken expression, "You don't need to pay for it. Although I don't have much money now, I still have some small money."

Qin Xuan said angrily.

My brother is good at everything, but stingy.Spending other people's money is slippery, and spending your own money is like cutting meat.

Only then did Lu Weimang heave a sigh of relief, as long as he doesn't let himself pay for it.

 I really can't tell whether a book is good or bad, but every comment and collection recommendation is real, thank you.
