"Master?"
Before Lu Qian could recover, he heard the voice of a young man.
After hearing the sound, Lu Qian turned around.
We haven’t seen each other for several months.
I saw that Xia Zongze had grown up a lot.
And the voice has changed a bit.
Obviously, this is development...
"You little brat, you grow up so fast..." Lu Qian walked to Xia Zongze's side.
If he looked like a child before.
Now he looks a bit like a teenager.
"Master, why are you here? Come on, please come inside?" Xia Zongze said and pulled Lu Qian inside.
"Oh, I didn't just come back before. There are too many complicated things. Besides, you also know that Master is not very popular in the court. So, I was afraid that I would implicate you. So I didn't come here. Don't you blame me, kid?" Lu Qian said to Xia Zongze.
Xia Zongze smiled and said, "Master, how could it be possible? By the way, and I am not afraid of being implicated by you. I feel that after reading the books Master gave me, I feel that I can also help Master."
Lu Qian touched Xia Zongze's head and said, "Have you read all the books I wrote for you?"
Xia Zongze nodded and then started talking.
Not only the art of war, but also astronomy, geography, and some modern minor sciences of later generations, he learned very well.
Lu Qian nodded with satisfaction and said, "Boy, that's good. It seems that he has put some thought into it..."
After Xia Zongze heard what Lu Qian said, he smiled and said, "Master, when you helped Da Xia repel Da Zhou, did you use the strategy you gave me in the Art of War?"
Lu Qian sounded a little ashamed and thought to himself that he relied on technology.
"Yes and no...the art of war in those books are also routines. Only when you apply them flexibly in actual combat can you truly understand the book..." Lu Qian replied.
Xia Zongze nodded seriously.
"By the way, what did the Imperial Master come here for just now?" Lu Qian asked, changing the topic.
After hearing what Lu Qian said, Xia Zongze shook his head and said, "I don't know, I'm here to see my mother."
"Is this his first time here?" Lu Qian asked.
Xia Zongze shook his head, and then said, "No, he comes here quite often. And once he comes, he stays for a long time... It seems like two people are studying Taoism."
Lu Qian nodded.
"Master, did you bring me the book you wrote this time?" Xia Zongze looked expectantly.
Lu Qian shook his head and said, "No, I came to see you today. I wanted to ask you if you want to leave the palace and go to the army to gain some experience."
After hearing what Lu Qian said, Xia Zongze nodded expectantly, and then said to Lu Qian in frustration, "Master, I want to go...but...my mother will definitely not let me go..."
Lu Qian said to Xia Zongze, "I'll go talk to your mother. Go and ask if your mother is willing to come see me?"
Xia Zongze nodded expectantly and went to the Zen room where Concubine Chen was.
After a while, Xia Zongze looked a little embarrassed and said to Lu Qian, "The queen said she couldn't see you..."
"Did you say that I wanted you to join the army?" Lu Qian asked in surprise.
Xia Zongze shook his head.
Lu Qian said to Xia Zongze, "Then follow her words."
Xia Zongze nodded, then went in...
However, not long after entering, he came out again.
With an embarrassed look on his face, he said to Lu Qian, "Master, my mother has said that she won't allow it. I won't see you either..."
Lu Qian frowned slightly, walked to the door and said, "Concubine Chen, is there any misunderstanding about me? I think we can talk..."
"Xiang Lu, we are not from the same world, so let's not talk about it. Moreover, as for Zongze, I just want him to be safe. So, you don't have to worry about it. If Eunuch Gao asked you to come, tell him and let him Don't bother." A cold voice came from the room.
"but he..."
Before Lu Qian could finish speaking, Concubine Chen said in a cold voice, "Prime Minister Lu, Xia Zongze is my son. What does he want to do? What he can do, I have a plan for him. So, please stop talking." Moreover, I don’t want Zongze to know who you are! Eunuch Lu, please come back.”
Lu Qian heard a hint of threat in Concubine Chen's words.
Seeing this, Xia Zongze pulled Lu Qian aside, and then said to Lu Qian, "Master, forget it. I will tell my mother slowly..."
Lu Qian smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, then you go ahead and tell me. Maybe your mother has some prejudice against me..."
Xia Zongze looked a little embarrassed and said, "I will tell her carefully... you are a hero."
Lu Qian smiled bitterly and left.
Concubine Chen and Dongfang Shen were definitely not talking about Taoism.
However, what did Dongfang Shen want to do with Concubine Chen?
She was a helpless woman who depended on Queen Mother Dou for her survival.
Puzzled.
However, Lu Qian didn't bother about this matter.
Gao Weixin asked him to take care of this matter.
Since, people don’t want him to take care of it.
Of course he won't be too troublesome!
After all, he doesn't have nothing to do...
With that said, he went directly to Chaohuang Palace.
...
In Chenyang Palace, Xia Zongze sent Lu Qian away.
He returned to the door of his mother's room, Concubine Chen, and said to Concubine Chen, "Empress, I have asked Master to leave."
At this moment, the door of the meditation room was opened.
Concubine Chen looked at Xia Zongze and said, "Are you looking at the strange mother?"
Xia Zongze shook his head and said to Concubine Chen, "Mother, I am not here. I know that my mother is doing this for the sake of my son. After all, if I go to the Tianji Army, I will definitely be targeted... Even if If I don’t want to, I will be involuntarily involved in the struggle for the throne of the court and even the crown prince.”
Concubine Chen nodded with satisfaction, stroked his head and said, "You are a good boy. Prime Minister Lu may not be a bad person. But, he is definitely not a good person! You know too little about him. If you just let him teach you knowledge, He is a good teacher. But if it involves other things, the Queen Mother will be afraid, and he will take advantage of you..."
Xia Zongze shook his head and said, "Mother, do you have any prejudice against Master..."
Concubine Chen said to Xia Zongze, "This is not prejudice. You may not know yet, but he is not a real eunuch."
"It's impossible...Mother, the Imperial Master personally verified it just a few days ago..." Xia Zongze said to Concubine Chen.
"The Imperial Preceptor mentioned to me that your master threatened the Imperial Preceptor with the Tianji Army and kept the Imperial Preceptor silent. And we in Daxia can't do without the Tianji Army now, so the Imperial Preceptor did that out of consideration for the overall situation. Not only that, he also pretended On the grounds of national destiny, I have to forcibly marry your aunt. What if he is an eunuch? Why are you so persistent about marrying your aunt?" Concubine Chen asked Xia Zongze.
Xia Zongze was confused by Concubine Chen.
"Zongze, you are still young...The human heart is the most complicated thing. Mother, I just want you to grow up safely!" Concubine Chen stepped forward and caressed Xia Zongze's face and said.
The best emperor master
