Song Dynasty

Chapter 171 Request
Seeing his crazy appearance, Liu Fu's forehead was covered with sweat, and it took him a long time to say: "Yes, military lord, the last general will go down to restrain the army. The major general is finally back this time, and the rear army that the last general is temporarily leading should also Hand it over to the son."

"No, you should bring the troops first." Kong Yanzhou looked at Kong Xian with cold eyes: "Kong Xian, you can return safely this time, and I am very happy as a father. You can cultivate in the mansion for a while before we talk about it."

"Yes." Kong Xian knew that his father had already become suspicious of him.

Coming out of the lobby, Kong Xian stood blankly under the camphor tree, looked at Lu Benzhong in despair, and moved his lips with difficulty: "Master Lu..."

To be honest, he was very happy to be able to come back this time.He entered the city excitedly, originally wanting to facilitate the marriage between the second sister and Wang Shen, so that she could have a good home.Since then, the Wang and Kong families stopped fighting, and my father accepted the imperial court's offer to take off the hat of a traitor on his head.

But as soon as he entered the city, he was terrified by the scene of endless hell in the city.What happened next was out of his control, his father was furious, the peace agreement fell through, and he was completely kicked out of the army and became an idler.

Everything is because of Wang Shen's letter, how could he do that, how could he provoke our father's feelings?

Lu Benzhong said: "Young General, in fact, you can't blame Wang Shen for this matter, he should also have good intentions."

"Good intentions, what kind of kindness is this, asking me to be a military leader and take away my father's military power?" Kong Xian exclaimed angrily, "It's in vain that I trust him so much and think he is an upright gentleman. Isn't this plotting against me?"

Lu Benzhong said seriously: "Major General, you are wrong. To be honest, Wang Daosi has already surrounded Qichun impenetrably, and he has already gained an absolute advantage. At this time, the two parties are negotiating, and even if Wang Shen wants to sign a contract, naturally It's an alliance under the city, no matter how harsh it is. If you change to Wang Daosi, you will naturally have to hand over the Kong family army in the city to your own brother-in-law to be at ease. Besides, now the commander-in-chief of the major general has lost favor with the military leader. If you can manage In the first army, Lingtang and Lingmei have different positions in the Kong family. It is not surprising that Wang Daosi proposed such a condition, and it is also out of good intentions."

"Good heart, good heart, what should father think of me?" Kong Xian sighed in a low voice: "Master Lu, father is jealous of me now. How is it possible to reach this point between father and son? Please teach me, sir."

Lu Benzhong suddenly looked at him deeply, and asked in a low voice: "Young General, there is a question that I don't know whether to ask or not. I hope you don't hide it from me."

Kong Xian: "Sir, although the student has not officially become a teacher, he has already regarded you as a mentor in his heart. The so-called teacher for a day is a father for a lifetime, please teach me."

Lu Benzhong: "You, did you really not read this letter from Wang Shen beforehand? Or did you already know the content and want military power so that General Kong can take the burden off his shoulders and live in his life?"

Kong Xian was taken aback: "Master Lu, I really didn't read that letter beforehand. As for military power or something, it's rebellious. How dare a student, isn't that a beast?"

Lu Benzhong chuckled a few times: "It's just asking, don't take it seriously. In fact, now that the military leader is angry, it's useless for you to explain it no matter what, and it might add fuel to the flames. Yes, you want everything now." Do it, study quietly in the mansion, maybe the military master's anger will dissipate after a few days."

Kong Xian: "I am planning to do so."

Lu Benzhong rolled his eyes: "However, the old man is worried about one thing. I don't know whether to say it or not."

Kong Xian: "If Master Lu wants to tell you what to say, it's fine to say so."

Lu Benzhong touched the beautiful beard on his chin, and said slowly: "The old man is worried about Lingtang."

"Mother... what's wrong with her mother?"

Lu Benzhong said: "Lingtang has fallen out of favor with the military lord, and now he doubts the young general. You know his temperament, I am afraid that the military lord will vent his anger to Lingtang. If something happens, it is not a relative Hurry up, haters."

Kong Xian's complexion changed greatly: "Thank you, Master Lu, for reminding me, I'm going to visit my mother right now, and I will serve in front of her old man and never leave."

"It should be, it should be, all goodness and filial piety are the first, so don't hurry up."

Seeing Kong Xian's hastily leaving footsteps, Lu Benzhong slowly lifted the hem of his clothes, walked out of the gate in a smart way, and caught up with Liu Fu who had just left the gate: "General Liu, please stay."

Liu Fu paused: "Master Lu, do you have any instructions?" He had seen Lu Benzhong's methods in the past month, and he admired this resourceful and well-known man very much, and he was very respectful when he met him on weekdays.

"Don't dare to give orders. I want to ask the general for help with some private matters. You must not let the military leader know about this matter."

Seeing the seriousness on his face, Liu Fu was a little embarrassed: "Can't let the military leader know? If there is something that violates the military order, I'm afraid the last general will not dare to obey the order."

"It's just a personal matter, it has nothing to do with military orders, and it won't embarrass the general."

"Please tell me about this matter. If I can do it, I will never shirk it."

"It's like this. My family has three concubines given by the military leader, especially Xiaotao, whom I love very much. Hey, after a month of siege, they also suffered a lot with this old man. If this continues, I can't bear it." Said At this point, Lu Benzhong let out a long sigh.

Liu Fu understood: "Mr. Lu wants to let them out of the city? The military leader said that no one should leave the city, but this matter is impossible."

"Don't worry, don't worry, the old man has his own teaching." Lu Benzhong said: "Didn't Wang Daosi write a letter asking the young general to bring him into the city? It's rude, but I need a letter in return to calm the anger in my chest. I'm going to ask General Kong to write a letter. When the time comes, I will naturally need someone to send it out. I can let my three concubines be the messenger. Old man I'm already old, and when I get old, but I have these three beauties, I can't bear to see them suffer. You also know that there are not many beautiful women in this city...General Liu Fu ,please."

After saying that, his eyes were slightly red, and he bowed to the ground.

Although Lu Benzhong didn't finish what he said, Liu Fu couldn't understand.

Kong Yanzhou was lustful by nature, especially after being besieged by Wang Shen in Qichun, his heart was depressed, and he was even more lustful.Every day, the sergeant Dasuo Liang's wife is sent to the mansion to enjoy.

He is cruel, but if a woman falls into his hands, he will not give up until he is dying.

After one month of siege, all the people in the city died, and even those who were barely alive were all skinny, so naturally they couldn't catch Kong Yanzhou's eyes.

Maybe, the next moment Kong Yanzhou will make his mind on the three beautiful concubines who gave it to Lu Benzhong.

Seeing such a famous person worshiping in front of him, how could he bear it? Liu Fu groaned, and hurriedly bowed back, saying: "Master Lu, you have killed the last general. Don't worry, I will accept the old man's request." gone."

"Thank you, General, thank you General."

Turning around, a scheming gleam flashed in Lu Benzhong's eyes.He secretly said in his heart: Kong Yanzhou, a vulgar warrior, dare to be rude to this old man, just look at my methods, I will definitely kill you without a place to bury you.Hehe, Wang Shen's son is really shrewd, he knows that it is urgent to attack Qichun, and he will have many dreams after a long night, so he wants to outwit him.Well, what he wants to do must not be hidden from the old man, but it also coincides with someone.Well, let me help you.

After returning home, he immediately called Xiao Tao and the other three over.

Although the city was full of starvation and bones exposed in the wild, Lu Benzhong had three meals a day here.

Under his nourishment, the three girls became more and more delicate and beautiful.

Seeing their obedient and charming looks, Lu Ben sighed in his heart: In his later years, it is a matter of life to have these three beautiful maidens serving as princes.

After drinking the herbal tea they handed over and eating the hand-peeled pine nuts, Lu Benzhong said slowly: "The three of you pack up your luggage and pack all the belongings I got a while ago, and I will send you out of the city later. .”

The complexion of the three women changed greatly, and they knelt in front of him at the same time, tremblingly said: "Master, are you chasing my concubine, we are not going anywhere."

"Hey, I don't know what you want. This city is already so dangerous. If you stay here again, you will die!"

"Master has treated me so kindly, even if I am about to die, I will serve you even if I wait at the spring." Xiao Tao's tears rolled down, and the other two daughters also cried into a ball.

Lu Benzhong touched their shoulders affectionately, and said with a smile: "Fool, I said I would drive you away, and did I also say that Master, I am going to die in this city? Hehe, that's how I underestimate this old man. I have a lot of things. You three are just going out of the city, but I don’t worry about the three of you. That’s all right, you go out of the city and wait at Wang Shen Wang Daosi’s place, and the old man will come over in three to five days.”

"Wait at Wang Daosi's place?" The three girls looked surprised.

"Yes, yes, you go there first, don't worry, Wang Shen will definitely treat each other with courtesy." Lu Benzhong said with a proud face: "You take a message to Wang Shen and ask him to prepare the sedan chair for the old man, and it will break when the time comes. City, I have to respectfully invite General out."

After that, he picked up the pen and started writing on the paper.After a long time, I handed the letter to Xiaotao, and said solemnly: "Xiaotao, listen carefully, I will definitely do what I promised you before, and when the war subsides, I will give you a title, otherwise I will die badly. This letter is related to the wealth and lives of the old man and the three of you, so please don't let anyone see it except Wang Daosi, so keep it."

"Yes, master." Xiao Tao took the letter and shed tears again: "Master, we can't rest assured!"

"It's okay, it's okay. Prepare as soon as possible, if you're afraid..." Lu Benzhong said sternly, "I'm afraid that Kong Yanzhou will suddenly think of you and ask the three of you to go back. At that time, I won't be able to keep you waiting."

Hearing the three words Kong Yanzhou, the three women's faces were pale and their bodies trembled: "Yes, master, let's go get ready."
