If I fail to overcome the tribulation, I can only return to the Ming Dynasty and become a prince.

In the mountains of Izumo, the shrine that sealed the passage to Takamagahara has now been occupied by the Kinyi Guards and the Qingyu Guards, and has been transformed into their temporary stronghold.

Meng Qinglin temporarily stayed here to protect Zhu Zhanquan, who was still in seclusion, and this also made the senior officials of Qingyu Guard and Jinyi Guard very nervous about the safety of the princess and the prince.

Even though the main force of the Qingyu Guards and the Jinyi Guards were sent out by Meng Qinglin to clear out the remnants of the Japanese protoss, the top leaders of both parties still unanimously decided to leave enough elite soldiers to protect the safety of Zhu Zhancheng and his wife.

Lu Jianxing and the hundreds of households under his command were the "good hands" who were left to protect the safety of the prince and princess. I don't know whether they were lucky or unlucky.

Because of their outstanding performance in the past, Lu Jianxing and his two brothers had caught the attention of several Qianhu of Jinyiwei. After reporting to Zhu Zhanchun, they had already prepared a future for him as deputy Qianhu.

His two brothers and Ding Xiu also each received rewards and promotions. Naturally, Ding Xiu also had the secrets and practice resources that he cherished.

For Lu Jianxing, this is of course a good thing. The brothers have all been promoted and made rich. Isn't this the wealth they want to gain by licking their blood with their swords?

Just watching the other Jinyiwei brothers disperse to collect the remnants of the Japanese protoss, and being able to bring back massive harvests and make contributions every day, Lu Jianxing still had some thoughts in his heart.

It's not that I have any inappropriate thoughts, I just feel that I missed the opportunity to make contributions and gain benefits.

Of course, Lu Jianxing clearly knows that the wealth and gains brought back by other Jin Yiwei must be shared by those Jin Yiwei who are here. However, it is easy to understand the gap in his heart when he sees others making meritorious deeds and he can only watch the door. things.

However, Lu Jianxing's mentality is very good. A Qianhu has already told him that the three brothers and Ding Xiu are the first to succeed in this matter. They will receive no less rewards after returning. In the future, he will also After being promoted to the position of deputy Qianhu, as long as his cultivation level can keep up in the future, he will also have a chair in the position of Qianhu, the Jinyiwei.

For Lu Jianxing, promotion is not that attractive to him.

When he was just a general, what he really wanted was to get promoted and make a fortune, because only in that way could he and his brothers live a good life.

It was precisely because of this thought that when he was in Northern Xinjiang, he took his two brothers to fight for fame on horseback.

Unfortunately, there is no one above. Although he will not be deprived of military merit, it is still more difficult than others to get promoted.

At that time, Lu Jianxing's biggest ideal was to be promoted to Baihu, so that his two brothers could live a good life with him, have money in their pockets and no longer be oppressed by Shangguan.

Then they got lucky and caught up with the Jinyiwei purge in the Ji Gang case. Lu Jianxing was naturally promoted to a hundred households, and his two brothers also became the general banner.

This undoubtedly greatly inspired Lu Jianxing and made him want to work hard and serve the Ming Dynasty well.

Coupled with the temptation of the fleshy bone that Zhu Zhanqun hung in front of each of them, which could break through the realm of martial arts and embark on the path of spiritual practice, Lu Jianxing took the initiative to take the risk and strive for a bright future for his brothers. .As for himself?He is already satisfied if he can become an official of hundreds of households, and the rest is just to enable his two sworn brothers to have a better future.

"Brother, what are you thinking about?" Shen Lian saw Lu Jianxing standing there looking lost in thought, so he walked to him and asked with concern: "Are you envious of other brothers for getting rich again?"

Lu Jianxing smiled slightly awkwardly, but there was a trace of relaxation and relief in his eyes, and then he smiled and said: "Of course I envy you! That's real money, don't you envy it? I remember that you have always liked Zhou Fangsi, Girl, I am saving money to redeem her body. If we can also make a fortune, you can collect the money to redeem her body."

Lu Jianxing knew that Shen Lian had always liked a girl from Jiaofangsi, so he teased him about it.

However, Shen Lian just smiled, then patted his pocket and said with a smile: "The prince is generous and the reward is generous. I have already saved enough money to redeem myself! Even if I don't know when I can go back, I can go and give it to you." She redeems herself.”

"Really plan to marry her as your wife?" Lu Jianxing saw Shen Lian say this, and the teasing expression on his face subsided, turning into concern and seriousness: "You have to think about it, Zheng Qianhu came to see me before, this time The contribution we have made is enough for me to be promoted to Deputy Qianhu, and you and Jin Yichuan can also have a future as a Hundred Households. Marrying a woman from the Jiaofang Division as your head wife will have an impact on your official reputation in the future."

Shen Lian nodded slightly, and then said seriously: "I have seriously considered this matter. I have liked her for a long time, and I have liked her since she was an official lady.

I once said to myself that no matter what she becomes, I will marry her as my wife, treat her well, and stay with her until we grow old together.As for the official voice and so on..."

When Shen Lian said this, he couldn't help but look at the mountains and rivers in the distance, and then he sneered and said: "We are not from a famous family or a high-ranking family. We can achieve our current position by relying on our skills. The ancestral graves are already smoking, how can we care about anything more?"

With that said, Shen Lian patted Lu Jianxing on the shoulder and said to him sincerely: "Brother, you can be promoted to Deputy Qianhu, and you may be able to go one step further to become Qianhu in the future. You should really work harder." right.

Only when you, the eldest brother, are promoted, can we brothers follow you and take advantage of you, and we can also move our butts up!Unless you are the eldest brother, you will no longer care about your brothers in the future! "

It was pretty serious at first, but in the end Shen Lian couldn't help but make a joke at Lu Jianxing.

"What are you talking about? How could I not care about my brother?" Lu Jianxing smacked Shen Lian's hand away angrily, but then looked at the alchemy cauldron still suspended above the shrine, and then said in a trance: "Let's I said during our sworn vows that as long as there is something for the eldest brother to eat, there will be no shortage of food for the brothers! If I can become a Qianhu in the future, you and the third brother will definitely be my right-hand men!

We three brothers work together as one, as long as we work together to serve the Ming Dynasty and the prince, everything we should have will be achieved! "

"Your Majesty is generous, we will definitely have a bright future!" Shen Lian also agreed with Lu Jianxing's words, but when he also looked at the alchemy cauldron in the sky, he couldn't help but worry: "I just don't know how long your Majesty will be in seclusion. ?”

Just when Shen Lian said this, a long sound suddenly sounded from the alchemy cauldron in the sky! (End of chapter)
