end song

"Open the city gate!"

"quick!"

The Xiangyang city gate slowly opened, and a stretcher was quickly carried into the city. The person lying on the stretcher was extremely tall, and the pair of feet hanging there were astonishingly large.

"Call the doctor quickly!"

"Where is Mr. Qiu?"

Just behind the team, Qiu Tongfu ran in such a panic that he almost lost his shoes.

"You... how can you lift father-in-law like this, turn it over, turn it over and lean over quickly, take off the armor."

The flustered soldiers quickly followed suit.

A school general came up with a knife, turned his head and glared at the people who were poking around on the street, and shouted, "What are you looking at?! Go away!"

The heavy golden armor was lifted and rested on the stone road.

"I can't take off the single clothes, it's stuck to my back." The guard shouted.

Because she was too frightened, there was a cry in her voice.

"Where are the scissors? Where are the scissors?" Qiu Tongfu knelt on the ground and turned around looking for the scissors.

Someone took out a dagger and began to cut open the single clothes that had been completely glued to Lu Wende's back.

"hiss."

Qiu Tongfu took a deep breath, and saw that the sore head on Lu Wende's back had completely rotted away, and even the red and swollen skin around it was torn open, and the pus covered his clothes.

When the unlined garment was lifted, almost the entire back was torn.

It was this sore, which he didn't dare to pierce easily with a fire needle, but it was worn away by Lu Wende's heavy golden armor overnight.

"Heat and poison enter the body, ghosts and gods are hard to cure."

The eight words hit Qiu Tongfu's heart, he murmured, but he didn't dare to say it.

He couldn't tell what the heat poison was, maybe it was Lu Wende's pent-up anger, maybe it was the cold wine and raw meat that made the internal organs accumulate poison, in short, gangrene hurt the five viscera and tendons, and when the heat poison entered the body, he died of heart heat and depression.

"Quick, carry me in. I'll find a way to fix it"

"quick!"

This group of people hurried to the Xiangyang Commander's Mansion again, and at the same time left behind a sound of shouting orders.

"Where is the Sixth General?! Hurry up and invite the Sixth General!"

"."

They were extremely panicked.

Because the person who fell ill was Lu Wende.

The world blamed him and scolded him, but it wasn't until the moment when he really fell ill that he realized how important he was.

Panic began to spread from the streets of Xiangyang.

The people who were scolded on the street shrunk their necks and ran away, muttering: "I lost, I died, I am a big man."

At the top of the city, the Xiangyang soldiers who saw this scene whispered among themselves: "What's wrong? Lu Shaobao died in battle?"

A messenger rushed to the boat outside the city, shouting: "Quick! Come to Lin'an and ask for an imperial doctor, hurry up!"

"."

A small festering sore head spread the panic like this, as if it was more terrible than the plague, and spread to the entire Zhao Song Sheji.

No one is puzzled, no one will say "It's just Lu Wende, what about it?"

In the past ten years or so, all the generals who did not want to rely on Jia and Lu's influence were all squeezed out and suppressed. Song Dynasty regarded Lu Wende as the only reliance.

Then, when this reliance is about to fall, it is not too much to be afraid of the people of the Song Dynasty
~~
Lu Wenhuan took off his helmet, held it in his hand, and strode back to the commander-in-chief's mansion in Xiangyang.

He tried his best to keep his steps steady while walking on the road, so that no one could see the panic in his heart.

But the sweat on his brow betrayed him.

Finally, step through the gate.

"close the door!"

Lu Wenhuan yelled, smashed the door helmet in his hand to the ground, grabbed his scalp with both hands, and took a few deep breaths.

He was ready to face all the consequences.

Turning to the corridor, I saw Lu's nephews and Jiubu standing all over the yard.

"Uncle Six!
'

"Six Generals"

"What are you panicking about?" Lu Wenhuan shouted, "Brother has always been in good health, but it was just a minor illness, you guys came in with Uncle Six."

Lu Wende had twelve sons, and there were seven of them by his side at this time, and Lu Wenhuan ordered them to enter the house together.

I saw a few doctors standing outside and discussing in low voices. Inside, Lu Wende had woken up and was lying on the couch drinking porridge.

"I can't die." Lu Wende was able to speak, and said, "Lao Liu, you stay. Everyone else. Get out."

"Father."

"roll."

Lu Wenhuan sighed, stepped forward, sat down beside Lu Wende, picked up the bowl of porridge and fed it.

Ever since the Lu family made a fortune, Lu Wende probably hasn't eaten such a light porridge for more than 20 years, even in the army, he is a big fish and a big meat.

"The Lu family is in your care."

"Brother?"

Lu Wende closed his eyes, his eyelids were trembling because of the pain, and said: "Few of the elite soldiers and generals in the Song Dynasty were not from Lao Tzu's subordinates. They are all Lao Tzu's contacts. If you have this network, you can win more battles, and sooner or later you will be able to rule the world. Soldiers and horses."

"Brother."

"The Lu family is entrusted to you. It is not easy for me to go from being a charcoal man to this step. Promise me, take good care of the Lu family, and don't ruin my life's hard work."

Lu Wenhuan did not immediately agree.

This is not only the supreme glory and wealth, but also a heavy burden.

The Lu family not only has more than a hundred people in the direct line, but also includes collateral in-laws, students from the old department, and all those who benefited. It has formed a huge and intricate family.

This powerful family can bring Lu Wenhuan incomparable benefits.

But from now on, he also wants to protect the interests of everyone, and to ensure that they have no less wealth than they have now.

"Brother will be fine. It's not like no one has cured gangrene, as long as the diet is light."

"Promise me!" Lu Wende growled again, like a wounded beast.

He struggled to stand up, staring at Lu Wenhuan with bloodshot eyes.

"Without me, you are still eating wild vegetables in Anfeng, you have starved to death long ago. Everything you have, I gave you."

Being watched by him, Lu Wenhuan's eyes turned sore, he lowered his head and said, "Brother, Xiao Liu promises you."

"Okay, I'm brother and nephew, you're the only one who has something to offer."

Lu Wende was relieved a lot, got down on the ground again, and said: "But you are fighting. Damn it, you are not as good as I. Talk to Li Xia, and you must take it back to Ezhou."

"Okay, okay, please rest at ease, brother."

"I don't want to talk to Li Xia personally. I want to talk to him personally."

~~
The fighting inside and outside Xiangyang City subsided.

At least the battlefield full of corpses can't be cleaned up in three to five days.

But just like the surface of the sea, there must be an undercurrent surging under this temporary calm, brewing the next storm.

Li Xia had already escaped from the siege and was stationed in the Longzhongshan camp.

After the siege was cleared, many memorials that had been delayed for the past few months were finally delivered to Li Xia.

Not long after he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, it was a time of heavy state affairs, but Li Xia had been away from the capital for so long, one can imagine the chaos in Chang'an.

Fang Yankai felt overwhelmed just looking at these documents.

There were even a few urgent battle reports, but because they were sealed with wax, even he had no right to open them, so Li Xia had to read them personally.

"His Majesty?"

Fang Yankai looked over and saw Li Xia put down the battle report in his hand, his eyes did not change at all.

"Is it that Ningxia is bad, or Guanzhong?"

"Fang Qing is a civil servant, and she is still worried about the North

Come face to face with war?"

Fang Yankai was in a hurry, and said: "Your Majesty will personally march, and the Yuan army will definitely attack in large numbers. How can I not worry about it?"

He said so, but Li Xia still refused to say how the battle in the north was going. Instead, he put the battle report in his hand on a candle and burned it.

Fang Yankai was taken aback by the green smoke, and asked again: "Is this...very bad? Will Your Majesty return to Chang'an immediately?"

"No hurry." Li Xia still refused to show his emotions, and said, "We will talk about returning to the teacher after Song Ting bows to us."

Fang Yankai was still worried, picked up a document, and said: "Your Majesty, please take a look at the casualties of this battle. Now that the soldiers are exhausted and there is not much food and grass, I am afraid that it will be difficult to threaten the Song court, and the Yuan army in the north. Is it really okay?" ?”

"Calm down." Li Xia reminded.

Fang Yankai has jumped from a county magistrate to a minister of the central government. He is good at handling practical affairs, but sometimes he is not able to handle major events.After being touched by Li Xia, he quickly solemnized his face.

"The minister obeys the order."

"Let's talk about forcing Song Ting to bow his head."

Li Xia walked to the watchtower in Longzhong Mountain.

Fang Yankai followed in small steps, and said, "I heard that Lu Wende is dying soon?"

"Well, Song Ting must be very embarrassed." Li Xia looked at the Song Army's flag in the distance and said, "After this battle, Meng Yuan will definitely question and threaten Song Ting."

"It must be so." Fang Yankai said: "But no matter how much the Yuan court blames Zhao Song, they will definitely not send troops to attack Song. Instead, they will first attack His Majesty who is upstream and poses a greater threat to him."

At this point, he also felt that he reminded too much, like an old lady.

But being a courtier is like this, and you must consider everything for the king.

Fang Yankai said again: "I still feel angry when I think of the Song court's policy of negotiating peace. Both sides will suffer. How unwise!"

After all, no matter what the battle with Song Ting was, it was actually a loss.

For Li Xia, the best way is not to break up with Song Ting, destroy Yuan first, and then go south to destroy Song after occupying the Central Plains is actually a piece of cake.

As a result, Song and Yuan negotiated a peace. After a battle, although they were victorious, the situation facing Meng Yuan became even worse.

"I'm not worried about Song Ting, but I'm thinking about Song Ting's threat to us." Li Xia said: "Anyway, it's Fang Qing, who can say that both sides will suffer, so I have expectations for Song Ting."

"I have given up on the Zhao family. I just feel sad for the casualties in the army and hate Song Ting for being unwise."

"If you think about it another way, Song Ting was originally an enemy, and our battle is to knock him down so that he doesn't dare to deal with us easily. Thinking about it this way, doesn't it make you feel better?"

"Your Majesty is holy."

"Then beat him to the ground, and don't take some benefits back, wouldn't it be a loss?"

Fang Yankai understood what he was going to do, and said: "The minister draws up a clause, asking Song Ting to recognize His Majesty's emperor title, and promise not to raise troops to invade the country."

"It's not just that." Li Xia said: "We have to have what the Song court gave to Meng Yuan, the mutual market, old coins, and eh? Lu Wende sent someone here."

Halfway through the conversation, there was a fast horse galloping from the east, the flag in his hand was shaking, and it seemed that he was coming from Xiangyang.

"It seems that they have given in." Fang Yankai couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, hoping that Song Ting would sue for peace earlier so that Yu Jia could return to Chang'an as soon as possible.

Of course, maybe Lu Wende's obituary came -
