Chapter 373 The warriors are so lowly, how can I be the Great General?

"Can't I say it here?"

Lu Li really doesn't really want to get into the door of the woman under the black pot.

Although "greeting my body" is just a joke, but seeing that it is about to get dark, and coming to the door at this time, there is really some suspicion of melon Tianli.

"I have something to show you!"

The woman at the bottom of the black pot seems to be very insistent.

Have something to show me? This... is really misunderstood!

Lu Li made up his mind and nodded to the woman at the bottom of the black pot, "Let's lead the way!"

"Okay! Please come with me!"

The black pot The woman at the bottom hurriedly got up, hugged the child, took Lu Li, walked all the way into the Huang Family Village, and came to an old small courtyard.

Bamboo fences, thatched huts, and walls made of mud mixed with straw don't look bad.

After entering the door, the woman at the bottom of the pot greeted Lu Li and sat down in the main room.

"Young Master Lu, please sit down."

The woman at the bottom of the black pot saluted Lu Li and said, "The little girl's surname is Li, my mother's surname is Lu, and I'm from An offshoot of the Yangjing Lu Family. speaking of which, we should be cousins."

Is this a relative?

Lu Li couldn't understand this "black pot" idea, so he could only replied: "It turns out to be a relative! Sorry, I didn't recognize it before."

"My mother that One has moved from Yangjing to Huating County, so it’s normal for you not to know each other.”

“Black Pot Bottom” laughed at Lu Li, and added: “The previous generation of Yangjing’s Lu family’s head was like a The son of Shan Gong, Lu Ji, died nine years ago at the age of thirty-seven. The Substitute Patriarch of the Yangjing Lu Clan is still less than twenty. You are not a direct descendant of the Yangjing Lu Clan, are you?"

"Of course not!"

Lu Li laughed and shook the head, thinking, I have to go back and look at the genealogy to find out if I have anything to do with Lu Shen!

However, what is this "black pot" trying to say?

"My mother is the third family of the Yangjing Lu family. Although the third family moved to Huating, I also returned to Yangjing to worship my ancestors. I also met Yangjing Lu family's peers when I was a child, but... I I've never been able to figure out which of my cousins are you?"

Speaking of this, "Black Pot Bottom" glanced at Lu Li with a strange look in his eyes.

“hehe!”

Lu Li smiled but didn't answer, thinking: You know too much.

"I remembered it!"

At this time, "Black Pot Bottom" suddenly had a sudden realization, "Young Master Lu, you are also the third room of the Yangjing Lu family, You are my uncle's son, my first cousin."

"So what?"

Lu Li watched the performance of "Black Pot" with a trace on his face. smile.

This "black pot" obviously saw that Lu Li's identity was fake, but it was only slightly broken, and he deliberately gave him the name of his cousin, there must be a reason .

"Cousin, ten years ago, my uncle took you, who was only twelve years old, to the sea with others to run a boat, and you have never returned. Now my cousin is finally back, and Huating Lu also has a family. It's the mainstay."

"Black Pot Bottom" hurriedly got up, "Cousin wait, uncle still has something left here."

Said, "Black Pot Bottom" turned back room, and came out with a wooden box.

Handing the wooden box in front of Lu Li, "the bottom of the black pot" said: "Cousin, this is what my uncle left before he left, you can take a look."

Lu Li reached out and took the wooden box, but did not open it. Instead, he raised his eyes and looked towards "the bottom of the black pot", and said, "What do you want me to do by giving this to me?"

" The bottom of the black pot hugged the little girl and knelt in front of Lu Li with a "pu tong", "Please, Master Young, save my grandfather's family. My uncle was framed and imprisoned, and some gangsters embezzled the Lu Family's property. Today, Huating Lu Only my grandmother and my brother-in-law's wife and daughter are left, the whole family is at stake, please Young Master rescue!"

This is a deal.

In exchange for Lu Li's help.

"What about the people in your family?"

Lu Li still didn't answer, and asked the "black pot" again.

"My father was a scholar, and he passed away due to illness at an early age. My mother also passed away last year."

"Black Pot Bottom" replied quickly.

"What about your husband?"

Lu Li looked at the little girl in "Black Pot Bottom"'s arms and asked again.

"Huh?"

"Black Pot Bottom" looked stunned, "I'm not married yet, where is my husband?"

Lu Li was also a little stunned, He hurriedly pointed at the little girl in "Black Pot Bottom"'s arms, "Then... who is she?"

"My younger sister!"

This answer was beyond Lu Li's. expected.

With such a thick layer of ash on your face, how can I see how big you are? Seeing that you are carrying a child, the first reaction is that it is your daughter.

In fact, under normal circumstances, unmarried women and married women have very different hairstyles.

It's just... In order to avoid the Japanese pirates, the "black pot" not only blackened his face, but also broke his hair.

This made Lu Li a little preconceived and thought she was a married woman.

"It turned out to be Miss Li, offended and offended!"

Lu Li apologetically laughed, stretched out his hand to help "the bottom of the black pot", "I know what you mean! This matter I'll take it!"

It is very important to have a reasonable identity in order to get along in the Ming Dynasty, a fake identity will be fine for a while, but it is not a long-term solution.

Nowadays, this "black pot" Miss Li, deliberately sending Lu Li a reasonable identity origin, is naturally much more convenient.

As for solving the dilemma of Huating Lu Family, it is not difficult.

The heads of twenty-three Japanese pirates can do a lot of things.

I have to say that this "black pot" Miss Li is really a smart person. This was done very well. If you put it in the future, she is not a female scholar but also a strong female.

It's a pity...In this day and age, even though she is flexible and intelligent, she can't do anything, so she can only pin her hopes on Lu Li.

In other words, her move was actually quite risky. Whether it can solve the problem, or even whether Lu Li will come forward to solve the problem, is still unknown, and it depends entirely on Lu Li's character.

Huh? etc!

This "black pot" saw me go to the Japanese pirates, and saw that I came back with a few knives and blood on my body, and even heard me say "Go kill the Japanese pirates" .

Besides, when the soldiers were looting, I also came forward to stop them.

Perhaps she saw my character at that time and knew that I was a great man of noble character?

Not bad! Very insightful!

Lu Li laughed, reaching out to uncover the wooden box that "Black Pot Bottom" brought over.

In this wooden box, there is only one jade token, the texture is not bad, pure white Dushan jade.

The carver is just average.

In the view of Lu Li, the jade carving master, the jade token carving is extremely crude.

The surrounding moire is very rigid and has no sense of elegance at all. The word "Lu" in seal script is engraved in the blank space in the middle.

This word is also very general. In the eyes of Lu Li, a calligraphy master, it is simply unbearable to look at.

"many thanks...cousin!"

Lu Li picked up the jade token and hung it on his waist, bowed his hands to the "black pot", and called out the title "cousin" .

"Cousin...cousin, you're welcome!"

A smile appeared on the face of "Black Pot Bottom". Seeing Lu Li "recognize" this relative, the "black pot" sighed in relief.

"Right. Two cousins, what are your names? How old are you this year?"

As a "cousin", this kind of basic information still needs to be clarified. Lu Li hurriedly asked the "black pot".

"Little sister Li Wan, seventeen this year."

The bottom of the black pot pointed to the little girl next to her, "This is my younger sister, six years old this year. , I haven't taken my name yet."

Speaking of this, a look of sadness flashed in Li Wan's eyes, "Originally, I had a younger brother and a younger sister, but all of them... all died at an early age."

Lu Li was also sighed.

In this day and age, the emperor's son will die, even more how ordinary people?

While he was talking, there was a sudden shout from outside the door: "Young Master Lu, is Young Master Lu there? My thousand households are invited!"

"Come on!"

Lu Li replied complied, then turned his head and looked towards Li Wan, "You and Nan Nan are waiting at home, I will deal with things first."

"en!"

Li Wan hurriedly nodded.

"By the way, I have something here, you can put it away first."

Lu Li handed over the gold, silver and katana found from the Japanese pirates to Li Wan. .

"This is..."

Li Wan was wrapped, only to feel her hands sink.

“Spoils of war to kill Japanese pirates.”

Lu Li laughed, turned and walked out the door.

In the room, Li Wan looked at Lu Li's back, stretched out her arms and hugged the girl next to her, and muttered to herself, "Young Master Lu is a good person, he will definitely help us."

……

After Lu Li went out, he saw a hundred household officials outside the door.

This person is the one hundred households that Qianhu Tong Zhilin sent to count the corpses of Japanese pirates.

"This lord, what's your surname?"

Lu Li cupped the hands towards the Hundred Household Official.

"I don't dare to be! I've seen Young Master Lu in the next King Heihu."

This Hundred Household Officer, according to his rank, is already a Grade 6 military attache. However, in front of Lu Li, a fake scholar, he could only call himself "under" and did not dare to put on airs.

This is the characteristic of the Ming Dynasty's "literary and military inferiority".

"Your Excellency Wang is very polite!"

Lu Li sighed inwardly. The status of the soldiers is so low, and they have to fight to the death, guard home, defend the country, what a...weird!

My road to the Great General is really not easy to get along with in the Ming Dynasty, in the era of "literary nobles and military inferiors"!

Along with Baihu Wang Heihu, Lu Li walked out of Huang Family Village.

At this time, Qianhu Tong Zhilin had already lined up in the cold wind with more than 300 "beggar soldiers" under his command.

The soldiers' clothes are worn out, and the once mighty and lustrous war jackets have been dilapidated, and it is not known which year they were handed down.

A group of soldiers stood shiver coldly in the cold wind. Lu Li even saw an old soldier with white hair and beard in the army, as well as a half-old child in his teens.

Daming's guardhouse has long been a mess!

“Young Master Lu, are you here?”

Qianhu Tong Zhilin saw Lu Li’s arrival and hurriedly greeted him, “I have already sent people to Huating magistrate and Jinshanwei to command. The envoy has reported victory, and the two adults will be here soon."

"Are the magistrates and the commander coming?"

Lu Li voted, "General Tong, this time Do you know how the great victory over the Japanese pirates came about?"

"Of course."

Tong Zhilin hurriedly nodded, "This morning, the sentry detected the whereabouts of the Japanese pirates. , Young Master Lu used a clever strategy to lead the Japanese pirates into the forest. I led the soldiers to fight hard, and finally wiped out all these thieves and pirates."

"Yes!"

Lu Li nominates with a smile, "Then I wish General Tong a promotion and promotion!"

"Where! Where! It's all dipped in the light of Young Master Lu!"

Tong Zhilin again Towards Lu Li cupped the hands.

A moment later, on the road ahead, a group of people came rushing in.

In front of the team is soldiers clearing the way, and in the middle is a large sedan chair. Behind the sedan chair, followed by a military general wearing a mountain armor, wearing a cloak, and riding a tall horse.

"Come! Come!"

Seeing this scene, Tong Zhilin was full of excitement, "Young Master Lu, Huating County magistrate Yuan Yuan and Jinshanwei command room Sir Liu, just It's coming. We'll go to meet you."

Tong Zhilin hurriedly dismounted from his horse, hurried to the intersection of the village, and stood on the side of the road to welcome the two adults.

Lu Li also followed Tong Zhilin to the intersection.

A moment later, the sedan stopped at the intersection.

The general next to him got off his horse and waited outside the sedan chair with a respectful face.

The sedan chair fell, the curtains were lifted, and an official with a long beard and a round body wearing an official robe embroidered with the "鸂鶒" pattern on the chest came out with his head held high.

This person is "Master Yuan", the magistrate of Huating County, and he looks very round.

After this Yuan Zhixian got off the sedan chair, the commander of Jinshanwei who followed behind only started to move, and he was still a few steps behind, not daring to rank with Yuan Zhixian.

The magistrate is Grade 7, and the guard commander is at least Grade 3. In terms of rank, the commander of Jinshanwei is much higher than the magistrate of Huating.

However...the reality is that the status of the magistrate of Huating is much higher than that of the commander of Jinshanwei.

This is "literary and military inferior".

"Tong Zhilin, who is a thousand households of the Jinshan Guards, is here to meet the magistrate, and the commander!"

At this time, Tong Zhilin, who was greeted at the intersection, hurriedly knelt on the ground and went to Yuan magistrate. Salute with the commander of Jinshanwei.

This is another embodiment of "literary and military inferiority".

Grade 5 thousand household officials actually had to kneel and salute with Grade 7 magistrates, and when paying respect, the magistrates were in the front, and the commander of Jinshanwei was in the back.

This is completely rubbing the dignity of a warrior on the ground! Being despised to this extent, I really feel unworthy for the soldiers of Daming.

What surprised Lu Li even more was that after Tong Zhilin knelt down and saluted, Yuan Zhixian didn't seem to see it at all, didn't pay attention at all, and instead looked towards Lu Li.

"Student Lu Li, I have met the magistrate."

Lu Li just bowed slightly and paid respect to Yuan magistrate.

However... Yuan Zhixian was very enthusiastic about Lu Li.

"Your surname is Lu? Could it be the queen of Yanshan?"

Yuan Zhixian glanced over Lu Li and saw the jade token that Lu Li was hanging around his waist. The smile on his face grew even stronger, "No gift, no gift!"

"The student is from the third house of the Yangjing Lu family, and his family moved to Huating many years ago, and now he is under the rule of the adults. ."

Lu Li bowed again to Yuan Zhixian.

In order to make a difference in this Ming Dynasty, it is necessary to integrate into this society. If you are always incompatible, you will be rejected by the whole society.

I don't have enough strength yet, so I can only integrate into it first.

Wait until there is enough power in the future, let's talk about changing this world and things in this era!

My road to the Great General must start with the imperial examinations.

If, like Tong Zhilin, seeing a Grade 7 sesame officer and kneeling down, that would be totally unbearable.

Take your time! Stand firm first, then change the world!
