At first, Lu Wu ran away from home with five girls, but he only took three carriages and a dozen horses with him.
Now that he has returned to the Kingdom of Wu, his status is no longer what it used to be. He has more than 3,000 personal guards with him, plus a large amount of gold and silver, and the team of horses and carriages stretches as far as the eye can see. It can be said that he has returned home with a golden coat.
Lu Wu was now seriously injured. Although he was not completely unable to ride a horse, since he had the conditions, he did not wrong himself.
He built a huge carriage, which was padded with layers of brocade quilts. He lay comfortably on it, with Qiutong and others waiting around him at any time. The sides of the carriage could be completely opened, so he could look out the window at any time. When I got interested in the scenery, I ordered people to park the car by the water and lie in the car fishing. It was a really leisurely life.
Although it is still a long journey, it is a bit more comfortable than in Nanhe Mansion.
Of course, this speed will definitely not be faster.
General Luo Gan was very anxious, but he had something in his mind, so he didn't dare to rush him at all. However, every time he went to a place, he would definitely recruit the most famous local doctor to treat Lu Wu. All kinds of precious medicinal materials were piled up for free, less than five thousand yuan. Ten years of wild ginseng is not even qualified to be used as soup scraps;
And Gongzi Lie, who came to greet the king on behalf of King Wu, even went fishing and playing with Lu Wu. Not only did he not have any intention of urging him, but he did all kinds of tricks, laughing and joking with Lu Wu all day long, eating, drinking and having fun, which made the convoy even slower. a bit.
However, no matter how slow the speed or how long the road is, it will eventually come to an end.
On this day, Song Jing is in sight.
Ke Lie was riding on the horse, looking at the vaguely visible Songjing city wall, with a bright smile on his face, but secretly sighing in his heart.
When his father, Gongzi Yuan, was still alive, although he was repeatedly scolded by his father, he often harbored rebellious thoughts in his heart.
But when his father was stabbed to death, he realized that without his father's big tree to protect him from the wind and rain, this arrogant little boy was actually just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered among the wolves - not only him, but also Even my brother and mother are nothing more than that.
Now that my brother has become the King of Wu, with his brother protecting him, I can finally take a breather.
But when the two brothers held candlelight talks at night, the elder brother often sighed that he had not established his prestige due to his youth. After he ascended the throne, he was restrained. Nine times out of ten, the implementation of government orders was blocked by the ministers for various reasons. He was really unhappy.
As the King of Wu, Ke Tu has not tasted the taste of being consistent with his words in the past few months, but he has encountered a lot of nails that are neither soft nor hard.
King Wu Ketu often thought, if a powerful general like Lu Wu could be used by him, how dare these old and cunning ministers dare to push back and forth like this?
If Lu Wu had never left Chu State because of his mother's marriage, wouldn't he have to feel so aggrieved?
These were all said by King Wu Ketu himself. These words could not even be said to his mother Mingji. Only the two brothers could complain.
Ke Lie has always been running to the Lu family in the past few months. Firstly, it is because Lu Wu is working more and more enthusiastically in the Chu Kingdom. Secondly, he hopes that if Lu Wu returns from the Chu Kingdom after being defeated, he will take advantage of these sentiments. Come on, give me a helping hand.
If there is not enough affection, with Lu Wu's lazy temperament, he will never interfere in others' affairs even if he has the ability.
But now it's like this - the dissatisfaction in Kelie's heart is almost overflowing.
However, as the younger brother of King Wu, he could not and did not dare to ruin such important national affairs. He could only hint a few times intentionally or unintentionally. As for whether the other party understood or not, he didn't know. He just wanted a little peace of mind.
More than thirty riders came from the direction of Songjing.
Ke Lie's eyes narrowed, he was startled, and he quickly jumped off his horse to salute. The soldiers walking in front had already knelt down on both sides of the road to make way for them.
The person who came was King Ketu of Wu, who was traveling in a simple carriage.
"I have something to discuss with General Lu, please step aside first." Wu Wang Ketu waved his hand.
The two brothers Tukelie have a good relationship, but they still need to maintain the etiquette of a monarch and a minister in front of others.
"Brother——" Kelie said in a very low voice.
"I know, please step back first."
Ke Lie had just retreated, but Luo Gan had already arrived.
"Your Majesty?" Luo Gan saw the soldiers in front ducking to both sides of the road and kneeling down one after another. Knowing that a noble person was coming, he rushed over to prevent the situation from unexpected changes, but he did not expect that it was the King of Wu himself who was arriving.
"I have something to discuss with General Lu. General, please step aside for a moment." Ke Tu said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty!" Luo Gan said angrily.
He is Wu Wang Ketu's grandfather, and at this juncture, he is not so polite.
"I am King Wu!" But Tu's four short words were full of indescribable anger and aggrievedness.
Everyone in this court, including his mother Ming Ji, calls himself the king, but how many of them really take him seriously? Even grandpa is like this.
"Your Majesty, please think twice!" Luo Gan's voice became softer, but the anger in his eyes did not diminish at all - can you joke about such a big matter? Besides, why are you going up there, looking for death? Even if Lu Wu is seriously injured, he will always have the strength to crush you to death.
But in front of Luwu's chariot, even if Luo Gan was furious, he did not dare to argue loudly with Wu Wang Ketu.
"I stayed up all night to make this trip!" Wu Wang Ketu said this and boarded the Luwu cart without looking back.
Lu Wu's carriage was as big as a small house. Ke Tu opened the door and was about to speak when he saw that although Lu Wu's face was pale, he was lying comfortably in the silk and brocade quilt. There was a tall and beautiful man with an exquisite figure beside him. The beautiful woman was half-kneeling beside his bed, holding a bright red fruit the size of a lychee, and carefully put it into Lu Wu's mouth.
Ke Tu thought about his short period of hard life, and then looked at Lu Wu enjoying himself so much, and suddenly he didn't want to talk.
He didn't speak, but Lu Wu did say something: "The king came to greet you personally. Unfortunately, Lu Wu was seriously injured and could only be rude."
"Humph, you also saved my family's life. It doesn't matter whether you were rude to me or not. What's important is how you save your own life now!" Ketu said angrily.
In the past, he was always polite to Lu Wu, but now he thought about it all night, and finally decided to let go of everything that was unyielding. Maybe in twenty years, he will become a qualified king who only cares about interests, but now Ke Tu was still young and had not yet had time to become a qualified king. Since he had nothing to ask for, Ke Tu was not so polite when he spoke to Lu Wu.
"?" Lu Wu said nothing, but the expression on his face was clearly a question mark.
"Now the nobles of the Wu Kingdom are furious and want to kill you. They will swallow up the five southern mansions and restore the old land of the Wu Kingdom. Even if I am the King of Wu, I can't protect you - you should run away quickly. I can still buy you some time here."
When he said these words, the carriage suddenly became quiet. Lu Wu's question mark expression froze on his face. The tall woman serving Lu Wu next to him also covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes as wide as almonds.
"I can only delay you for one day at most, why don't you find a way to leave quickly?" Seeing that the two of them didn't respond, Tu said angrily: "Give me one too."
The tall woman took out a black, hard-shelled fruit the size of a fist from the basket next to her. She shook it gently with her big hand. The shell of the fruit shattered into pieces, leaving only the lychee-sized, bright red pulp intact.
The woman handed over a shelled fruit and explained at the same time: "This is the bitter cloud fruit. It is very sweet, but it is more troublesome to peel it."
"Are you Qiutong? You are really good at martial arts." Ketu took the fruit and asked.
Kuyunguo is a rare delicacy produced in Wangwu Mountain. Although it is not common, it is not particularly rare and precious.
However, the pulp of the bitter cloud fruit cannot be exposed to wind, otherwise it will turn black and bitter after a while. The outer shell of the bitter cloud fruit is extremely hard and thick, and the pulp is relatively small, so it is not easy to peel it out in a moment.
But even though Tu was the King of Wu, it was impossible for him to find an innate expert to peel this thing for him.
"It's my concubine." Qiu Tong showed a friendly smile.
"I heard that you are extremely powerful, and today I saw that you are indeed worthy of your reputation. Hurry up and run away with your general riding on the black god - these bitter cloud fruits will be left to me." Ke Tu said while eating.
"Alas - Brother Tu, you are really embarrassing me by acting so unexpectedly." After a moment of silence, Lu Wu, who was lying in the brocade quilt and satin, sighed and sat up.
His pale face turned rosy as he sat up.
By the time he sat up straight, his face was as white as a baby and as healthy as a baby.
