If You Can’t Be a Son-in-law, You Have To Be Sanctified

  Chapter 292 With Lu Jing's achievements, can he be made a Marquis?

  The moonlight shines through the bare tree trunks, turning into whirling light and shadow, and falling on the snow.

   Sheng Zi, whose body was trembling slightly, heard this familiar voice, and his eyes suddenly froze.

  She seemed a little dazed, and her eyes were a little dazed.

  Until Lu Jing said again: "Sheng Zi."

   This always heroic, always free and easy woman also turned her head stiffly.

  Among the shadows of the trees, a figure in black appeared at some point.

  The figure had a sword on his waist, his body was as straight and straight as a jade mountain about to collapse, and the moonlight shone on his face, which looked like white jade.

   "Lu Jing..."

  Sheng Zi suddenly narrowed her eyes and spoke with doubts.

  Lu Jing took a few steps forward, the smile on his face was as gentle as ever, just like Sheng Zi remembered.

The old woman behind Sheng Zi regained some strength. She turned her head and glanced at the men and women in the dark night. There was more anger in her originally dead eyes. It was chilblain hands, holding up the white snow, and covering the naked body of the corpse.

   This scene is not elegant, let alone beautiful.

  But Sheng Zi seemed to have crawled out of the abyss of fear, her eyes were shining, she stared blankly at Lu Jing until Lu Jing walked in front of her.

   "Lu Jing!"

  Sheng Zi screamed suddenly, opened her arms, and threw herself forward with all her strength, and then fell into Lu Jing's arms.

  Lu Jing spread out his arms, a little at a loss.

  Sheng Zi's shoulders trembled, and tears rolled down her face.

  She hugged Lu Jing's body tightly, her fingers trembling like her shoulders.

   "Lu Jing..."

   Sheng Zi even choked with sobs as she called out Lu Jing's name.

  Learning refers to the place where the sound of swallowing stops, don't be affectionate.

  Lu Jing was at a loss...

   But even if he is a piece of wood, at this moment, he can clearly feel how much the woman in red has for him.

   Sheng Zi's tears flowed down, staining Lu Jing's black clothes.

Lu Jing stood under the moonlight, Sheng Zi choked up and wept. Behind the two, the old woman turned around again. She saw the two when she was about to die, and saw something from the two young men and women. Something other than numb to survive.

   She hasn't seen such a thing for a long time, so her disgust for this world has been slightly reduced.

   Immediately turned around, and saw the little snow bag again.

   "It's a pity...you were never buried in Beixiang."

  The old woman whispered, her hands drooped suddenly, and her head drooped deeply.

  She knelt in front of the two snow bags and fell into a deep sleep.

  When Sheng Zi wiped away the tears on her face, realized her gaffe, and let go of Lu Jing, the old woman could no longer wake up.

  Lu Jing just stood where he was, looking at the two snowpacks and the woman covered in rags and frostbite, his helplessness turned into silence again.

   "She should have died a long time ago, but she just hung on with one breath, not wanting to expose the two corpses to the barren mountain."

  Sheng Zi said: "Now that I have the strength, I don't want to live anymore after burying my son, but there is a panacea, you can't live her life."

   Lu Jing turned his head and thought for a while, with a snap of his fingers, a beam of vitality rubbed against the void, and a fire was born, which fell on the old woman, melted the white snow, and slightly ashes the other two corpses.

  The ashes were suspended in the air and put into a jade bottle by Lu Jing.

  The jade bottle was originally used by two immortals wearing stars and wearing moons to collect treasures from the blood mist in the middle of the river, but now it is used by Lu Jing to hold the ashes of the three people.

   "It is to rescue her by force. She no longer has the thought of life in her heart, and she will always die."

  Lu Jing said calmly: "Many people live in this world, not only by themselves, but also by many people and things.

  Once those people and things disappeared, they would have no idea of ​​living. "

  Sheng Zi nodded with red eyes: "Once a person is old, injured and sick, and has no beloved children and grandchildren, maybe there is really nothing worth nostalgic for."

   Lu Jing waved his sleeves, and the jade bottle fell into Lu Jing's hands.

  Lu Jing wanted to put the jade bottle back into the Yunkong pattern, but Sheng Zi suddenly took a step forward and took the jade bottle from the air.

   As soon as she flipped her hands, the jade bottle disappeared.

   "Let me help her." Sheng Zi said, "I will ask someone to send them back to the river and bury them in that place called Beixiang."

  When she said this, she suddenly laughed at herself: "When my strength was exhausted, I saw many corpses along the way, and I saw many people who wanted to live, but I could only help three of them go back to safety."

  Lu Jing shook his head: "But do good deeds, don't ask other questions, don't think too much."

  …

   "Why are you here on Tai'an Road?"

   Two people are riding on horseback, and two white horses are walking side by side.

   Immediately, a young man in black and a lady in red walked in the forest.

  Sheng Zi remembered what she did after seeing Lu Jing just now, and the blush on her face spread to her ears.

   "I have lived for twenty years, and I have never been out of Taixuanjing. I remembered that I have a good friend in Hezhongdao, so I simply went willfully once, thinking about going to see the world."

   "Friend? Which friend?" Lu Jing asked.

   Sheng Zi glanced at Lu Jing.

  Lu Jing suddenly understood that originally he wanted to advise Sheng Zi not to be so willful and impulsive in the future, and to tell her that the world outside of Xuanjing was not so stable.

   But immediately felt a few rays of light cast from the darkness, so he stopped talking.

  Sheng Zi was the daughter of Sheng Ruzhou, the second assistant of Taishu Pavilion, how could she leave Taixuanjing so easily?

  Sheng Zi was a little naive, she lowered her head and glanced down the mountain, in the dim moonlight, people could see the indistinct disaster victims wandering.

   "I have only left Taixuanjing not long ago, but it seems that I have seen enough of this world, and I don't want to see it anymore."

  Sheng Zi pursed her lips to find an excuse: "I happen to be returning to Beijing with you."

  At this time, the dark clouds in the sky became thicker and thicker, covering the already hazy moon.

  “The clearer a person perceives his own powerlessness, the more powerless he becomes.

  I was in Taixuanjing, and I always thought that even if Dafu Tianxia was not as good as Taixuanjing, it would not be so miserable.

  But now that I have really seen it, I also feel that my own power is only limited to sending the ashes of those three people to Hezhong Road just now. "

   "At the end of the day, I'm probably trying to escape."

   Sheng Zi lowered her head and said.

  Suddenly it snowed in the sky, the snowflakes were falling, and the cold wind was blowing.

   Lu Jing saw Sheng Zi's depressed expression, thought for a while, and comforted him: "Manpower is sometimes exhausted, but the world is not just you and me.

  The world is broken, and there are people who mend with needles and threads. If there are more people who mend, it will always get better. "

   "Sewing?" Sheng Zi nodded slightly.

  The two walked for a long time, and Sheng Zi's eyes fell on Lu Jing from time to time.

   At this time, it was snowing heavily.

  It's a pity that both of them practice martial arts, and even Sheng Zi has cultivated into a snow-capped mountain, with qi and blood in his body, plus the blazing qi and blood of the plain-heeled horse, not to mention Lu Jing, who has already been innate in martial arts.

  It’s true, the turbulent snowflakes have not yet fallen on the two of them, but they have already melted because of this hot blood.

  Sheng Zi suddenly thought of a poem, and felt a little regretful in her heart.

   "If we are drenched in snow today, we will be living together in this life."

   "It's a pity that the snow doesn't fall on us."

  Sheng Zi remembered what she had done just now, and glanced at Lu Jing who was riding a horse, and a burst of courage suddenly arose in her heart.

   "Since you have come to look for him, why should you be timid?"

   As Sheng Zi thought about it, her eyes became brighter.

  She reined in the reins and stopped in place.

  Seeing Sheng Zi stop, Lu Jing asked Zhao Ye to stop too.

   "What's wrong?" Lu Jing asked.

  Sheng Zi was silent for a while, before raising her head to speak.

  Suddenly, beside the official road at the foot of the mountain, several horses galloped by.

  A martial arts practitioner rode a steed, passed by the post station beside the official road, and threw a token very quickly.

   "The lord has an order to order all the post stations on Tai'an Road to open warehouses to release food for the victims. All the villages and county governments along the way will open warehouses. There must be no mistakes!"

   "The imperial court has an order, under the policy of disaster relief, if anyone dares to disobey it, he will be punished with death!"

   "Southern Jiangsu and northern Jiangsu also use practitioners to transport food, and the treasury has been opened to help the victims!"

   This command exploded in the void like a thunderbolt, and it also fell into the ears of those victims.

  There are still soldiers guarding the front of the station, and they dare not open the door.

   There was even a post official's voice: "My lord, this kind of government order has never been issued. There are too many victims. If the victims eat all the stored food, wouldn't everyone starve to death?"

   "The drought in Hezhong Road is over, and the lives of the victims should be saved first. After this winter, when the spring is planted, the imperial court will send the middle-aged people among the victims to return to Hezhong Road, reclaim the land, and clean up the river...

Hezhong Road has been prosperous since ancient times, and when the drought is over, food will soon be grown. This is a great thing, not to mention the people of Hezhong Road, even Tai'an Road, the whole Dafu and even the surrounding countries will also benefit from it ! "

   "The drought on the River Middle Road... is it over?"

   "It's over. It is said that I, the young leader of Dafu riding a jade horse, begged for heavy rain and ended the disaster. I don't know if it is true or not."

   "Pray for the heavy rain to end the disaster?" Sheng Zi was taken aback suddenly: "Young leader, Yuma?"

  She seemed to understand, she stared blankly at Lu Jing in front of her, and the words that came to her lips were taken into her heart again.

   "I can only send the ashes of those three people back to Hezhong Road, Lu Jing, but you can ask for heavy rain... As you said, you are indeed mending the world like Mr. Si and Mr. Guanqi in the past."

   "Compared to Lu Jing, apart from family background..."

  This woman who has always been decisive and free and easy only thinks that there may be someone in this world who is worthy of such a good man, but she seems to be...

  So, amidst such hesitation, Sheng Zi lightly moved the rein of the horse, and continued to walk on her heels. When she came to Lu Jing's side, she had a smile on her face.

   "It's time to go back... There must be many people waiting for you in Taixuanjing."

  …

   More than ten days passed in a flash.

  When Lu Jing and Sheng Zi arrived at the gate of Taixuan Capital, the sun had not yet risen and it was still night.

   On the 28th, the singing and singing are under the clouds, and the snowflakes in the three thousand worlds.

  This may be the last snow of the new year, and the spring breeze will come after March, so it will not be so cold anymore.

  At this time, the curfew has been lifted, and outside the city gate there are already people making a living, coming and going, many carriages coming in and out, and there are also adults living outside the city, who want to enter Taixuanjing to attend the court meeting.

  Lu Jing looked up at the familiar and prosperous city, his thoughts became very simple at this moment.

   "I don't know what Qingyue is doing."

  Jing Lu took a deep breath, rode his horse and walked towards the city gate.

  Sheng Zi walked with Lu Jing, but the two of them hadn't reached the gate of the city, when suddenly a general wearing a golden armor and a long knife walked out and saluted Lu Jing.

   "Su Xuanjun Wang He met Mr. Lu Jing, and there is an order from the palace to order Mr. to attend today's court meeting."

  After saying this, General Wang He turned sideways.

   But he saw a carriage safely parked inside the city gate.

  The carriage looked ordinary, but it was indeed made of ebony wood. A tall Mobei horse stood quietly in front of the carriage.

   Lu Jing had seen the person driving the car several times, and it was the Red-clothed Diao Temple in front of Emperor Chongtian.

  The old-looking Chiyi Diaosi saw Lu Jing, stepped off the carriage, and saluted Lu Jing.

   "Sir, this old man is here to pick you up."

  General Wang He at the side couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes when he saw Chiyi Diao Temple salute to Lu Jing. He didn't know why Mr. Lu Jing's face was so big.

Sheng Zi was also surprised at first, but immediately remembered Lu Jing's achievements, and felt that Lu Jing was a person who did practical things, and he was the one who solved the misfortune of all people in the middle of the river, so how could he not stand the bow of the Red Diao Temple? !

  Lu Jing got off his horse and returned the salute, but his eyes were a little tired, and he said to the red-clothed Diaosi, "Lu Jing has been exhausted all the way, and his body is tired. I wonder if Diaosi can report back on behalf of Lu Jing. Today..."

  General Wang He was even more surprised, he didn't know where Lu Jing's courage came from.

"Mr. Lu Jing." The red-clothed Diaosi smiled, and the wrinkles on his face were squeezed into gullies: "I know the person you care about in your heart, but Mr. Qingyue is currently refining a pill at Mr. Eleven's place in the library. several hours.

  Mr. don’t need to be anxious. Wouldn’t it be better to go to the court meeting, receive the reward, and then go to see the person you care about as the rewarded body? "

   "Alchemy?" A look of joy flashed in Lu Jing's eyes.

  Not all Dafu physicians can make alchemy. The Dafu imperial court has very strict control over elixirs. Ordinary people who practice alchemy can easily refine themselves to death, and it is very easy to practice poisonous pills to harm others.

   Only a doctor who is proficient in pharmacology and has a deep understanding of the ratio of medicinal materials can refine the elixir.

  Qingyue can make alchemy, which means that her pharmacology has surpassed most doctors.

   "Since this is the case, there is no need to worry."

  Thinking this way in Lu Jing's heart, he turned around and said a few words to Sheng Zi, but he never got into the carriage, but just rode Zhao Ye again.

  The red-clothed Diaosi also boarded the carriage again, and drove the carriage together with Lu Jing towards the Taixian Hall.

  The three of them walked together, and when they arrived at Changning Street, Lu Jing said goodbye to Sheng Zi and continued to the palace.

   Along the way, many court ministers rushing to the court also saw the young man.

  The young man was riding a horse, accompanied by Chi Yi Diao Si driving a carriage.

  The real big shots in Taixuanjing have also heard about Lu Jing calling for wind and rain to relieve the severe drought in Quhezhong Road.

  At this time, seeing that Lu Jing returned to Taixuanjing and was about to go to court, he couldn't help feeling and guessing in his heart.

   "But I don't know if Lu Jing's achievements can be made a Marquis?"
