Chapter 541 The Empress Dowager's Decree!

The capital city and Fengtianmen Square are crowded with people. The annual Beijing Cuju competition kicked off here, which is undoubtedly a major event that the whole country is concerned about.

The nobles in Dakang are good at Cuju. The top aristocrats have all raised Cuju teams in their families. The soldiers in various military groups also like to enjoy Cuju. The annual Beijing Cuju Competition has been the prosperous times in the capital for so many years, and the participation is extremely high. This year's situation is even more different, because behind this year's Cuju Competition, there are many stories involved.

In addition to the Qin Palace, Dong Palace, Qi Palace and Princess's Cuju team, Princess Qian also participated in the competition, and the city defense camp and the imperial guards each had a team. The powerful families in the capital, Su family, Duan family and other companies all expressed that they would not participate this time.

Obviously, against the background of the strong royal family and frequent attacks on the powerful family, the various powerful families in the capital have cleverly chosen to hide their strengths and hide their strengths. In the current situation of princes, their attitudes are very ambiguous.

However, no one is paying attention to them now, and everyone's focus is on the city defense camp and the eldest princess' mansion that were the least favored in the past.

The eldest princess's mansion can be said to be among the nobles in the capital. Because Long Lingxiu controlled the inner treasury, the silver passed by her every year was millions or even tens of millions of taels. The luxury of the princess' mansion was also second to none in the capital. Apart from His Majesty, he would not be a second person.

Therefore, the Cuju team of the Princess Mansion is also a famous dream team in the capital. The top Cuju hands are all recruited by Long Lingxiu. Every year, Cuju competition is almost the only one in the Princess Mansion.

But this time the situation was different. The city defense camp rose in the sky, and the magical Lu Zheng once created countless miracles. In the Dakang Dynasty, Lu Zheng can be said to be a household name because there have been too many legendary events in him.

It is said that Lu Zheng did not do anything else when he went to the city defense camp, but turned the city defense camp into a Cuju camp. In just a few months, the Cuju level of the city defense camp was transformed and even had the capital to challenge the princess's mansion. So, Lu Zheng and the eldest princess made a bet in front of the imperial court, and the two sides agreed to decide the winner in the Cuju competition. These things have long been talked about, and even been constantly interpreted, resulting in various versions of discussion. Under such circumstances, how can the Cuju competition not be popular this time?

Let’s look at the scene of today’s Cuju competition. The empress dowager personally participated. Although the emperor did not come, the imperial throne was ready. This was to prevent Emperor Xinde from coming to watch the battle on a whim. The inner court was preparing for the rainy day. Even so, this was the first time in recent years.

The Cuju competition is about to begin. Several heavyweight masters, including the Prince of the East Palace, King of Qin, King of Qi, and other heavyweight masters, have entered the venue one after another. The princess's sedan chair is also here, and the princess of the Qin Palace is accompanied by the princess Long Qianer.

Today, the eldest princess is wearing red palace makeup and her face is covered with white gauze. She is graceful and noble, and beautiful. Many young dragons and spirits are famous for the flowers of the capital. Her beauty is not only among the nobles, but also among the people, many people have heard of her reputation.

Such a cool woman, holding power in her hands, quickly became the focus of everyone's attention when she appeared on this occasion. Long Qianer was a little uncomfortable. Thinking of hiding behind, Long Lingxiu frowned and said:

"Helping me, let's sit down together!" Long Qian'er is also a famous beauty in the royal family. She and Long Lingxiu stood together. Their figures were almost the same, not like aunts and nephews, but like sisters.

Long Lingxiu said coldly: "Have you not come to the city defense camp? Such a big air?" As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a noise in the crowd, and then she saw the people from the city defense camp rushing towards this side.

The city defense camp is the army of the imperial city, and is of the same lineage as the imperial guards. The reason why Lu Zheng came late was not because he deliberately made accusations, but because the imperial guards blocked them outside the square and only allowed Lu Zheng to lead the 25 Cuju team members to enter the field. This was obviously not something Lu Zheng could accept. The two sides had differences on this issue and had a long time of trouble. Fortunately, Eunuch Feng came over, and both sides took a step back. Lu Zheng led more than 100 officers in the households, and the 25 Cuju team members. At this glance, the vastness of momentum became a big news.

Lu Zheng took the lead, wearing a military officer uniform. He looked gentle and kind, and he actually had a handsome and handsome demeanor.

The city defense camp appeared and snatched the limelight of the imperial guards. Even the princess's appearance just now seemed to be overwhelmed.

In fact, the city defense camp is not an ordinary army. Almost all the households and ordinary soldiers in the city defense camp come from powerful families. There is no need for Zhuang Xiaoxian, the empress dowager's heart. In addition, there are countless children like Duan, Zuo, and Su families, and there are also royal families, some of the children of the Marquis' family, and none of these guys are simple.

On this occasion, the scene was full of powerful nobles from the capital. The people who were sitting now and most of the people who entered the city defense camp knew each other. Naturally, the scene was climaxed.

For example, this is the first time that Empress Dowager Zhuang saw Zhuang Xiaoxian wearing a handsome and handsome appearance in Cuju Mansion. She was so happy that she opened her mouth and chatted with the mother around her. How could the scene not be lively?

"Hmph!" Long Lingxiu snorted coldly, while Long Qian'er's eyes were as watery as she stared at Lu Zheng, who was as if she were staring at the moon. She couldn't speak.

She saw the three people behind Lu Zheng. These three people were petite and were obviously dressed as men. Long Qianer saw Dai Xiaojing at a glance, and she couldn't help but exclaim "Ah..."

Oh my god, this is the Great Kang Dynasty, Dai Xiaojing is an unmarried lady, how could she be with Lu Zheng? Long Qianer felt a strange feeling in her heart. Who doesn’t have the idea of ​​being arbitrary in her heart, especially the West Chamber, the peach blossom fan so popular aristocratic circle.

No girl is willing to abide by those old-fashioned and perverted dogmas. Everyone hopes to find her own wishful husband, and even go against her own wishful husband, and fly together. Long Qianer once had such thoughts, but over the years, she has lost her courage and lost her former sharpness.

However, now she saw Dai Xiaojing, the girl she had seen when she was a child, always the sick girl of the same age. Long Qianer suddenly felt a little depressed because she found that her fate was actually worse than Dai Xiaojing over the years!

"What are you doing when you are shocked? What's the best thing? If you really want to see it, there is something you can see on the Cuju field later!" Long Lingxiu said coldly, and Long Qianer subconsciously withdrew her gaze. Just at this moment, Lu Zheng seemed to see the eldest princess and Long Qianer. From a distance, Lu Zheng seemed to smile.

Long Qianer felt warm in her heart. The eldest princess Long Lingxiu took a step forward, staring at Lu Zheng, the smile on Lu Zheng's face quickly disappeared, and another strange move was made.

This action is to stretch out a middle finger. No one understands what this action means, Long Qianer doesn't understand, and Long Lingxiu doesn't understand even more. But regardless of whether it understands its connotation or not, as soon as Lu Zheng did this action, the soldiers and soldiers from the surrounding city defense camp shouted in unison:

"General Lu is mighty!"

With a sound of General Lu's mighty power, Lu Zheng couldn't help but laugh out loud. He felt a kind of obscene evil taste. If he really explained this action, Lu Zheng would probably be cut into pieces! But now, Lu Zheng can easily enjoy such evil taste.

Long Lingxiu's face became even more gloomy. She was once again provoked by Lu Zheng. Can she get angry on this occasion? All she could do was to return to her chair and sit down safely. In the public eye, the princess's grace and nobility must not be destroyed.

At this point, all the teams participating in the Cuju competition today have arrived, but the Cuju competition cannot start yet, because there is the empress dowager here today, and all the ministers need to come to pay their respects to the empress dowager.

In addition to the empress dowager, there are also the princes, the King of Qi, and the King of Qin and other princes. All the ministers need to worship the dock. This is a very complicated social venue. Although no one is willing to continue waiting on the scene, this set of procedures cannot be omitted at all.

Lu Zheng's grade was very low. When he met the Empress Dowager, he hid behind him, but Empress Dowager Zhuang had a deep impression of Lu Zheng. Feng Ren shouted with a sharp voice:

"The Empress Dowager's decree is the first prize in the new department, the deputy envoy of the Tongzheng Department, and the garrison of the city defense camp, Lord Lu Zheng, who is the guard of the city defense camp, to meet..."

So Lu Zheng stood up among the many kneeling officials, led by Xiaohuangmen and walked through the crowd to the empress dowager's approach, and then paid a visit.

Empress Dowager Zhuang's smile was so nice that it made people feel like spring breeze. She looked up and down at Lu Zheng, nodded gently, and said, "Yes, the pillars and pillars of my Dakang Kingdom are indeed unusual, good, very good!"

Lu Zheng hurriedly said, "When I wrote the praise of the Queen Mother, I am ashamed of you! I will continue to work hard, and serve your loyalty to your Majesty for the prosperity of our country and the country, and devote yourself to your entire life until you die!"

Empress Dowager Zhuang smiled and said, "Well, you can be honest and literary and martial! I heard that your marriage has been dragged on and cannot be done for a long time. I have decided for you. After today's Cuju competition, I will ask Your Majesty to set the best time immediately!"

When Empress Dowager Zhuang said this, there was noisy around him, and many ministers could not hide their inner shock. No one expected Lu Zheng to have such an honor. The emperor gave the marriage, the empress dowager cared for, and the empress dowager was anxious to handle the marriage for Lu Zheng. This alone is enough to be passed down as a good story!

Lu Zheng immediately paused his head and knelt down, crawled on the ground, and said happily: "I thank my ancestors for their kindness!"
