The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 548 When Are You Going To Send Troops?
At this time, several followers followed, and Lu Yu recollected the words of Fu Gong Er and Zhang Mai, and thought of his own safety and future, so he had to say a few words: "Listen to me, you must keep your mouth shut about today's affairs. When you arrive at the General's Mansion, you should know what to say and what not to say, and you must know what to say, and misfortune comes from your mouth, do you know?"

"Yes, yes, Your Highness, the villain will remember." The few relatives promised.After all, there is no one who can become His Highness's personal entourage.

It was the second watch of the day, and the street was unusually quiet.A few war horses hooved on the ground and made a crisp sound, which could be heard far away.

After turning two more streets, a luxurious mansion flashed in front of Lu Yu and the others.

Two wind lanterns hang high, and under the tall gate tower, hangs a flat forehead with gold characters. The words "The Mansion of the Great General on the Right" are shining with golden light. There are five red lanterns hanging symmetrically on the left and right. The big bold characters are matched with "Right General's Mansion". There are seven lights up and down to illuminate the front of the mansion, and the red painted gate is more and more bright under the night.

On both sides of the gate stand two tall town house stone lions, which are symmetrical on the left and right, facing the outside, very mighty.Next to the big stone lion, there are two armored warriors on each side, holding spears and standing guard on patrol.

In the middle of the night, when they saw a few horses coming this way, the four armored warriors became vigilant, and they yelled at the passers-by with swords and guns in their hands, "Who is it?"

"Blind your dog eyes, didn't you see that this is His Royal Highness Lu Yu?" Lu Yu and others reined in their horses, and a follower behind him responded.

The four armored warriors were startled, seeing that it was indeed Lu Yu, why did they dress up like this?But no one dared to ask more questions, the four quickly put away their knives and guns and knelt down to salute: "The villain is blind, the villain deserves to die, I didn't know His Royal Highness Lu was here, forgive me, forgive me."

"Get up, is my elder brother there? I want to see him." Lu Yu said as he got off the horse and handed the horse to the attendant who jumped off the horse behind him.

"The general is here, yes, yes, the villain is going to report." The three armored warriors continued to stand guard here, and another armored warrior opened the door and ran inside.

Taking advantage of this time, Lu Yu and the others took off their businessmen's outfits, and there was no need to cover up now. It was a kind of respect to see that the generals had to wear military uniforms, because they were all soldiers.

Not long enough, Wang Xiong picked it up in person, because he knew that Lu Yu followed his father, Emperor Du Fuwei, and they didn't fight well. To be precise, they should have suffered consecutive defeats.In the past few days, he has also paid close attention to the battle on the front line. Now that Lu Yu came from the front line to visit late at night, there must be something big.So he didn't dare to delay at all and got up quickly, and picked it up with the samurai standing guard.

Lu Yu saw Wang Xiong knelt down and kowtowed, Wang Xiong pulled him up, the two brothers said a few words politely, and entered the living room where the guests and the host were seated.

Seeing Lu Yu's expression, Wang Xiong knew something important was going on. After the servant offered tea, Wang Xiong waved his hand, and all the idlers left.There were only the two of them left in the living room, so Wang Xiong asked about the situation of the former enemy.

With a bitter look on Lu Yu's face, he took a sip of tea, waved his hands and said, "Brother, let's put it simply, the father was unfavorable, the Huaihe battle was defeated, and the Modao formation was broken by Yang Yong. Second brother Kan Ling was also killed in battle, losing troops and generals, losing the city and land. In a word, we have suffered defeats these days. The thieves are unstoppable. Now the father is trapped in Luzhou by Yang Yong's 10,000+ army, and the younger brother is here. This is the father. The emperor wrote the secret letter, and the father told me that the younger brother must hand it over to the elder brother..." He said, took out the secret letter from his arms, and handed it to Wang Xiong.

Wang Xiong also heard about the general battle situation of the former enemies that Lu Yu said, so he was not too panicked.

After reading the letter, Wang Xiong looked at the envelope again, and then read the contents of the letter twice. After reading the letter three times, Wang Xiong's face was so gloomy that it was about to thunder and rain. He packed the letter and put it on the tea table, and remained silent for a while.

Lu Yu didn't know the content of the letter, but without Du Fuwei's words, how could he dare to read it, unless he didn't want to live anymore.

Seeing that Wang Xiong read the letter for a long time, and then remained silent for a long time, Lu Yu couldn't help urging: "Brother, saving soldiers is like putting out a fire. My younger brother traveled day and night, and it was hard to see you. It's time to send troops. The emperor said that as long as you Big Brother’s army has arrived, we will attack back and forth, and we will definitely defeat the bandits.”

Wang Xiong's expression was indifferent, and he changed the topic: "Brother, did you meet anyone when you came here? Have you been anywhere?"

Lu Yu also raised his vigilance when he heard it. He asked me what I meant by this. Can I tell him about being caught in the Fugong Mansion?Absolutely not, otherwise you won't be able to wash yourself clean if you jump into the Yellow River!
So Lu Yu shook his head like a rattle and denied it, "Brother, the military situation is so urgent, and it's late at night, my little brother dared not see anyone, didn't dare to go anywhere, and didn't dare to delay a single bit, let's go!" The gate of the city is coming directly to the mansion, why did the eldest brother say that?"

"Oh, nothing." Wang Xiong replied, frowning, thinking about something.

"Brother, when are you going to send troops?" Lu Yu couldn't wait, and asked again.

"Let's talk about this matter tomorrow. Brother Yu is feeling unwell. Come and see off the guests!" Wang Xiong got up and walked out, his face was ugly.

"Big Brother? Big..." When Lu Yu called Big Brother for the second time, Wang Xiong had already left the living room.

At this moment the butler came in and said apologetically, "Your Highness, it's already very late. Since Your Highness is not in good health, you must be tired too. It's not too late to discuss anything tomorrow. Please go back."

Lu Yu was left here, and was forced out of the chariot. The boss in his heart was unhappy, so he ignored the housekeeper, and chased him out of the living room angrily, but Wang Xiong had long since disappeared.

"Wang Xiong, do you have second thoughts about the father? Tell me! Why didn't you mention the matter of sending troops? Tell me!" Lu Yu couldn't hold back his anger anymore, and shouted in the courtyard.

After all, no one paid any attention to him, only the butler still followed behind and carried him out: "Your Highness, His Highness has already left because he is not feeling well, and he can't hear what you said, so please go back."

Lu Yu had no choice but thought to himself, it seems that what Fu Gong said is true, there is really a ghost in Wang Xiong's heart, otherwise, why didn't he send troops immediately after seeing his father's secret decree, why didn't he even say a word with a gloomy face? Don't tell me?
The more Lu Yu thought about it, the more angry he became, and he secretly gritted his teeth and said, Wang Xiong, Wang Xiong, if you really have a double heart for your father, don't blame me for being cruel, and if you are not kind, don't blame me for being unrighteous. It is said that Fu Gong has a double heart for your father , It seems that we are wary of the wrong person. Fu Gong is a loyal minister, and you Wang Xiong is a treacherous villain. This is called knowing people, knowing the face but not knowing the heart. My Highness must cooperate with Fu Gong to get rid of you, and then send troops to rescue you with Fu Gong!
　There are still three changes today, and this is the first change.
