Chapter 56 Awkward Good Brothers
  At this point, no matter how much he explained, it was useless, and he could only bow his head honestly.

"Do you know how far we walked back from outside the city?"

Lu Zhiyan really didn't have the energy to fight with him anymore. He couldn't let his mother and sister suffer along with them on such a long journey, so he could only run back and hire a carriage to pick them up.

"I'm really embarrassed, but I still gained something today."

Lu Wushuang showed the rewards he received from the emperor, but Lu Zhiyan, who always loved money as much as his life, was not interested at all.

"You are waiting for the day when I will take you out of the city, but you want to leave you in that place where birds don't poop and come back by yourself!"

Lu Youyou also knew that the third brother would be delayed for a long time after entering the palace, but she did not expect that he had completely forgotten his family.

Lu Wushuang obviously made Lu Youyou a little unhappy by doing this. After seeing so many gold and silver treasures, he had no intention of being tempted and didn't even look at Lu Wushuang.

"Hey, don't be like this. Third brother is wrong. It won't be like this next time."

Lu Youyou didn't think so much. She also knew that it would be impossible to escape without explaining things clearly after entering the palace. It was normal for it to waste time.

[Today I blocked Sheng Jingxuan’s road, but I don’t know how to deal with it in the future. 】

[But fortunately, the emperor was originally afraid of us, but now he should be completely relieved. 】

Lu Youyou then thought about it. Hematite was originally necessary for forging weapons. If the Lu family really wanted to rebel, they would definitely not hand over the discovered iron mine.

Since the Lu family would openly and truthfully explain the location of the iron mine, the emperor would naturally trust the General's Mansion more.

Early the next morning, the news spread like wildfire that the iron mine was discovered while out at the General's Mansion. Emperor Longyan was very happy and praised the news repeatedly in the morning, but found that no one from the Lu family was there.

The emperor's face was a little worried, and he must ask clearly about the whereabouts of the Lu family.

Only then did I know that Lu Shengqing and Lu Wushuang had been on leave for a long time.

"He is indeed an important minister of the country. He can be so considerate even when he is on leave. He even rushed back from outside the city just to report the news about the iron mine. I am really surprised."

The emperor was originally wary of Lu Jingyuan and his family. After all, he had military power. Who wouldn't be afraid of his generals who would outshine their masters?
  But after Lu Wushuang's several rescues and what the Lu family did this time, he already regarded the General's Mansion as a loyal and patriotic official. Even if he wanted to attack the Lu family in the future, he would still care about some friendship.

Although he was still at home on leave, the news spread, and many people who wanted to win over Lu Jingyuan also came to celebrate.

After all, he is a general who controls most of the country's military power. He was praised so highly by the emperor today, so he is naturally very popular.

Unfortunately, Lu Jingyuan still didn't know what happened. It wasn't until people came to visit him in an endless stream that he realized that he had been so important to the emperor.

"How many people have come today?"

Lin Yuyan felt that the courtyard of her home was almost full, so she quickly ordered the kitchen to make snacks to entertain the guests.

[This is not too much. After all, my father has been fighting outside. The people in the capital have not been handled well. I just want to take this opportunity to make amends! 】

Precisely because they are not familiar with each other, many people will introduce themselves when they come forward, which is convenient for Lu Youyou.

Lu Youyou took this opportunity and turned around to let Lu Jingyuan hold her. She happened to be in his arms, making it easier to see these people who came to visit her.

Lu Zhiyan and Lu Wushuang didn't like this kind of scene, so they hid out early. Now the only two people left at home, Lu Shengqing and Lu Jingyuan, were not good at talking. Most civil servants went to talk to Lu Shengqing and wanted him to help introduce him, but the general went directly to Lu Jingyuan without making many twists and turns.

"I've heard about General Lu's reputation for a long time, and I've long admired him. I've never had a way to meet him. Today I have to find an opportunity."

The big man in front of him was tall and thick. Although he was not exposed to the wind and sun at the border all the time like Lu Jingyuan, he could still tell that he was a very informal person.

"It turns out to be General Wei."

Lu Jingyuan had also heard of the man in front of him, but he used to work as a servant in the prison. He seemed to have offended someone and was not allowed to be promoted. It was not until he joined the army to fight that he gradually gained the favor of the emperor.

"General Deer knows me?"

The big man in front of him scratched his head in embarrassment, "I grew up listening to the legendary stories of General Deer. I just got the chance to meet him today, so I'm really nervous."

Lu Youyou looked at the awkward look of the person in front of her and understood the identity of this person.

Wei Ming should be Sheng Shiyou.

[Dad, this guy is pretty good. He will definitely become something big in the future. 】

In the original story, Wei Ming's past was completely ignored, but Lu Youyou still remembered some details.

This man has always had an upright character, so he inevitably offended a lot of people when he first started working as an official. Because of this, he was framed and lost his official position, and he was ready to commit suicide to rob the rich and give to the poor.

It can be regarded as fulfilling his dream of saving the common people.

It was a pity that he had just left the city when he bumped into Sheng Shiyou, who was only fourteen years old at that time and had just returned from suppressing bandits in the mountains.

Seeing that he was dressed as a grass bandit, Sheng Shiyou naturally followed the principle that he would rather catch him by mistake than let him go, and packed up Wei Ming and took him back.

Fortunately, one of Sheng Shiyou's advisers was an old acquaintance of Wei Ming, so his identity was proved and he was released.

When Sheng Shiyou saw the rough man in front of him who was a few years older than him but whose mind was still immature, he naturally didn't want him to fall into trouble, so he could only point him to a clear path.

Sheng Shiyou helped him change his military status, which gave Wei Ming a place to show his talents. In just a few years, he had already assumed the position of general. Although his status was not as good as Lu Jingyuan's, he was not an ordinary person after all. It can be manipulated at will.

"By the way, there is also my good brother, Ren Chuan. Although he is a scholar, he is also quite talented. He is the second in the new department!"

Ren Chuan was talking to Lu Shengqing at the moment. He hadn't noticed that his good brother was introducing himself. As he was talking, he was grabbed by Wei Ming. Before he could react, Lu Jing was already standing in front of him. Far in front.

Fortunately, Ren Chuan was still sensible and he stood firm and saluted quickly.

"General Lu, in Xiarenchuan, is..."

"He is the second best student in the new department. I just introduced him to you. He is very outstanding and he is also my good brother."

Wei Ming liked his friend very much at first sight and rushed to tell everyone how good he was.
