Concubine's three acres of pastoral garden

Chapter 300 The King Is Dead (4)
Although many people don't know Xianglai, but with An Guang by her side, people will know her identity, and the journey is unimpeded, and no one dares to stop her.

When he came to the Zhaochen Hall where the King of Northern Liao listened to the government, Xianglai entered the side hall and asked An Guang to report to Luo Jinxing. Luo Jinxing came to meet after learning that Xianglai had something important to do.

Hearing that Xianglai said that the Lu family had already fled, he was also worried, and said: "The Lu family has always had a close relationship with the animal mother and son, and Lu Fusheng's position was promoted by Lian Chongxue's father and king. They We have already formed a buddy of friends, and now that Lian Chongxue's mother and son have lost their lives, the Lu family has a very high possibility of rebellion, so we should have made plans earlier!"

Xianglai said: "Then go and discuss with the ministers what to do. Although I have ordered people to search for the Lu family and Lian Xiangjin sisters inside and outside the city, the most dangerous place after uncle's death is the southern Xinjiang. be careful."

Luo Jin walked up to her and put his hands on her shoulders, and said: "Well, thank you for reminding... I wanted to give you the most grand wedding, but I didn't expect it to turn out like this."

Xianglai said: "Now we are husband and wife, don't say thank you anymore, it's time for me to persuade you to mourn."

Luo Jinxing nodded and said: "Well, I know, you go back and rest first, be careful with our child, I will take care of things here, don't worry."

Xianglai nodded and left, and Luo Jinxing returned to the main hall again.

He asked the general who came back with Qin Kai and learned that his uncle had handed over all the military affairs in southern Xinjiang to the warlord Chang Ye before he came back.

Chang Ye and Qin Kai were stationed in the southern border together, and they have always been loyal to their duties and very reliable.

After listening to this, Luo Jinxing was a little more at ease, and sent people to the southern border quickly, let Chang Ye formally take over the military administration, and tried to weaken the power of Lu and his son, and be more careful with the Southern Liao, lest they take advantage of the turmoil in the Northern Liao The machine came to attack.

After dispatching the messengers, he ordered people to go out of the city to chase after Lian Xiangjin and Lian Xiangyin, and then he and his ministers handled the funeral of King Bei Liao and Qin Kai.

The king of the Northern Liao Dynasty passed away suddenly, the whole country declined, and the new king Luo Xuan hurriedly ascended the throne.

The funeral was held for seven to seven days, and the entire capital was shrouded in plain whiteness, and the palace was even shrouded in a sad and depressing atmosphere. The new king had a cold face to everyone except talking softly to the princess. The eunuchs and maids who filled the palace were silent.

Luo Jinxing didn't deliberately put on airs for anyone, it was too sad, although his father was sorry for his mother, but he cared for himself in every possible way, and his uncle worked hard for himself and Beiliao, and when he died, he didn't even have an heir, but But I have never done anything for him, and even caused his death. This kind of guilt and self-blame is really incomprehensible to others.

Xianglai knew that he was sad, and wanted to share the burden for him but had no choice but to stay by his side silently, hoping that he would be more comforted when he saw her and thought of the child in her womb, and hoped that the coffin of King Beiliao would be buried as soon as possible Luo Jinxing's mood will only improve a little bit after he is buried in the ground.

But what she is most worried about now is not only Luo Jinxing's emotions, but also that there has been no news from the southern border, the messengers sent have not heard from them, and the people sent again are still on the way. Right now, we can only wait.In addition, Lian Xiangjin and Lian Xiangyin who escaped were never captured. Although Lu Fusheng's mother and several concubines were arrested, the old woman died in prison due to excessive shock. The remaining people are not enough. In order to make the Lu family father and son fearful.

Luo Jinxing also made arrangements to prevent accidents. He transferred all the troops guarding the capital to the south. If there were any changes in the southern border, he could withstand it for a while. Even so, Xianglai was still uneasy and always had a bad feeling.

Amidst her uneasiness, the mourning period for the late king finally passed, and it was time for the funeral.

The tomb of the king is far north of the Songhua River, more than 2000 miles away, and the speed of the hearse is slow. Luo Jinxing is the only surviving son of the late king, and he has to see him off. It is estimated that it will not be long before the child is born when he returns from the funeral.

On the morning of the funeral, civil and military personnel gathered in the palace just after dawn. Luo Jinxing, dressed in cut-off and heavy filial piety, got up after prostrating in front of his father's spirit and ordered people to rise up. Entering the palace, he knelt down on the ground and reported to him: "Your Majesty, a large number of soldiers have appeared twenty miles outside the city. Although they are in the uniform of our Northern Liao Army, they have not put up banners. They are quickly approaching the capital!"

"Twenty miles?" Luo Jinxing asked strangely: "The king of Japan recently mobilized the Su army, but the Su army camped [-] miles outside the city, and they were not allowed to retreat at will. Who are these soldiers?"

The spies said: "I don't know, but the number is too many, far exceeding the number of soldiers in the army. It doesn't look like they were ordered to be transferred."

Luo Jinxing thought that there had been no news from Nanjiang, and his heart tightened immediately, and he said, "Go and inquire again, find out the origin of the people and horses, and then report!"

The summoned soldiers responded and got up together and trotted out.

As soon as this person left, Xu Che hurried in with a soldier covered in blood and staggering on his feet.

Since Xianglai and Luo Jinxing got married, she no longer needed personal bodyguards. Xu Che was appointed by Luo Jinxing as the Governor of the Imperial Army, responsible for guarding the safety of the palace.

He carried the soldier in and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the father and son of the Lu family have indeed rebelled. Most of the troops outside the city belong to them. These are the soldiers who fled back from the old army to report."

When Luo Jinxing saw this person's distressed appearance, he felt chills in his heart. What he had been worrying about these days finally happened!

He was in a hurry, but he still maintained his composure, and asked the wounded soldier, "Quickly tell me, what happened?"

The wounded soldier half-kneeled and fell to the ground, crying: "Your Majesty, Su Jun and Su Jun are all finished! 2 people... are all dead!"

Luo Jinxing said: "Now is not the time to cry, tell me what's going on!"

Then the wounded soldier said: "Yesterday evening, Lu Hong led a small group of troops to the camp of the Su army first, and told General Yang Qi that he was returning to the king's capital to pay homage to the late king, and it was too late to enter the city. General Qi asked them to stay in the camp, but who would have thought that in the middle of the night they actually killed General Yang Qi, and at the same time countless soldiers appeared around our camp, surrounding the Su Army regiments, and blood flowed like a river We, our [-] brothers, were wiped out just like that... The villain and a group of brothers desperately broke out, and only one villain survived in the end!"

Luo Jinxing closed his eyes, thinking to himself how could the father and son of the Lu family do such a thing and massacre officers and soldiers. Could it be that they don't regard themselves as people from Beiliao?

When he was thinking, Xu Che said: "Your Majesty, the general suspects that the people outside the capital are not just the Northern Liao soldiers led by Lu's father and son. From this person's description, the leader of the night raiding generals seems to be..."

Luo Jinxing said anxiously: "It seems that whoever it is, you have learned to hesitate!"
