The imperial edict that the young Marquis of the Hou Mansion is going to the border has not yet been issued, but the news has spread to everyone at an extremely fast speed.
The people just thought this was a joke. How could the young marquis do this if he only just eats and drinks on weekdays?
At the same time, everyone in the Hou Mansion has begun preparations.
Yun She came back from outside holding a beautifully carved silver box in his hand. It was made of sterling silver. He could guarantee that his brother would like this gift.
The weather has turned a bit cooler today. Lu Feng was wearing the same clothes as before and was drinking tea in the pavilion, with Po Jun sleeping at his feet.
Just looking at it from a distance, it does have some artistic conception.
It's a pity that Yun She doesn't understand this.
"Brother, do you think I brought you something?"
Lu Feng's eyes shifted from him to the box. He stopped drinking tea and his eyes became bright.
"Pure silver?"
"Hehehe... Although the Hou Mansion can't fit those treasures, it's still okay to take a few out. Big brother, take a look."
The silver box was opened, and the contents inside were displayed in front of Lu Feng's eyes.
It is a piece of black soft armor, and a red and slightly sultry dress, dotted with irregular black armor pieces, which looks a bit mysterious.
It was completely cold in his hands. Lu Feng picked up the soft armor and rubbed it carefully, feeling that it felt familiar.
"what is the material?"
"It's the scales that my elder brother got off my body that day. I searched for them at the bottom of the lake for a long time before I found so many. They should be enough."
I have become accustomed to feeling for things at the bottom of lakes in the past few decades, so it is not too difficult to find these.
Lu Feng said quietly:
"So you haven't been in the house these days, so you went to catch them?"
"...Ahahaha, doesn't it mean that my brother has always had no defense around him?"
Yunshe laughed.
You can't say that it doesn't matter whether you are there or not, right?
If he really said that, his snake head would be blown off again, but it still wouldn't work...
Lu Feng kicked Po Jun who was lying down. Po Jun got up in a daze and saw a box placed in front of him. Lu Feng's voice sounded.
"Send this to my father."
The red coat was taken away by Lu Feng, leaving only the black armor inside.
Po Jun opened his mouth and carefully bit the box, then walked to Lu Qingtian's study.
As for the red coat, Lu Feng particularly liked it and put it on directly.
Just right.
Yun She nodded happily. His vision was absolutely correct. The eldest brother was an immortal, and the clothes worn by those warriors were too ordinary.
If you can, no matter how exaggerated you are, it will be fine.
"Would it be too conspicuous?"
"Absolutely not. When others are in crisis, big brother, when you appear in this dress, you will definitely look majestic and breathtaking. People will know at a glance that you are an immortal descended from the earth!"
"..."
If my eldest brother had been wearing this kind of clothes, I would have been so submissive that I would have been beaten, scolded and never resisted!
Yun She was still thinking that Lu Feng took off the red coat and threw it back to him.
For Lu Feng's age, a showy bag is not suitable, not to mention that it is also a conspicuous bag when worn.
Turning around and going back to the room, Lu Feng said as he walked.
"Pack it with your luggage."
"okay."
The Second Prince's Mansion at this time.
It is self-evident who spread the news. The remaining two princes who were still alive came to the Second Prince's Mansion, but no one else knew about it.
Xiao Luoshan didn't want to come, but the second prince mentioned Lu Feng, so he came to take a look.
"Lu Feng is here, what are your plans?"
No longer in danger of his life, the second prince's state of mind was relatively stable at the moment, and he looked at the two of them and asked.
"If the emperor wants me, a useless person, to help you, then there is no need. The fate of the Hou Mansion has nothing to do with me."
Xiao Luoshan spoke calmly.
After he finished speaking, he looked at the eldest prince.
The eldest prince has always been famous for his stability, so when it comes to dealing with the Hou Mansion, he is not as eager for quick success as other princes.
He drank tea in a leisurely manner, making it difficult for people to see his expression clearly.
The reason why he doesn't fight now is not because he doesn't want to, but because he has bigger cards in his hand.
"Lao Qi hasn't come back yet, so I don't plan to do anything."
Seeing that neither of them seemed interested in Lu Feng, the second prince had a smile on his face, but he had already tightened his grip behind his back.
You all want to see what he does, right?
"I specifically asked my father for this opportunity. Now is the best time to take action. Lu Feng is just going out alone, and the guest will not follow."
He has already sent people to watch these. If the Hou Mansion does not follow the imperial edict, then it will be Lu Qingtian's responsibility.
The second prince saw that the eldest prince was a little relaxed.
"...Lao Qi came back just recently. There is no need for me to take such a big risk. I just want to ask you why you suddenly asked Lu Feng to go to the border in front of my father."
In the end, the eldest prince didn't speak, and just explained the reason for his coming.
There are indeed many princes fighting for power, but there are also princes who are connected to each other, such as the eldest prince's younger brother, the seventh prince Xiao Jue.
Xiao Jue, a young general.
He is the only prince among them who holds real power, and he has never dealt with him like the eighth prince.
"Time flies so fast, I didn't expect that one year has passed."
The second prince said this, but did not answer the eldest prince's question.
Since they had no intention of taking action, it would be a waste of time to continue talking. He was about to get up to see off the guests when he saw the guards coming to report.
The imperial edict has been sent to the Hou Mansion.
Lu Feng, the son of Lu Qingtian, was ordered to set off tomorrow.
He sounded very anxious, and the second prince did not dodge their gazes. He was just worried that the longer Lu Feng stayed, the more nights he would have dreams.
Early next morning.
The Marquis Mansion has arranged a carriage and is waiting. Although Lu Feng is asked to go alone, there should still be a driver.
After all, we are going to pick people up, not to exile them.
"Please be safe on the road, little Marquis, and don't worry about the house."
Lu Qingtian didn't come out, only the housekeeper gave careful instructions.
Lu Feng had been told these words by his father this morning. He was about to leave quickly when he glanced at another carriage not far from the Hou Mansion.
"I know~ It seems someone is coming to see me off over there. I'll go say hello."
Before the housekeeper could catch him, Lu Feng ran to the carriage over there.
The second prince sitting in the carriage naturally did not lift the curtain to see. He only faintly heard someone approaching. He thought it was a guard in the palace and said:
"he's gone?"
"Ah? Are you talking about me? I haven't left yet, Your Highness."
A familiar voice came from outside. The second prince paused and opened the curtain.
As expected, I saw Lu Feng. What was he doing here?
Lu Feng looked at him with a smile.
"Your Highness came to my door this early in the morning. Did you imitate your third brother and send him to my door?"
It was indeed him who killed the man.
Containing the fear in his heart, the second prince also smiled and replied:
"No, I'm here to see the young prince out of the capital."
