Three days later, the King of Zhao prepared to leave Jizhou with his family and head to Luoyang.
Lu Yu, Lu Zhi, and the others came out to send him off.
"Ziyi! Just wait! You'll be promoted very soon!"
Before King Zhao left, he patted Lu Yu's shoulder and winked at him.
These days, he had been going to Lu Yu's place frequently and became more familiar with him.
Moreover, she had eaten a lot of delicious food from Lu Yu.
Especially stir-fried vegetables, which he had never tasted before.
If Lu Yu had not promised to let the Lu Chamber of Commerce in Luoyang send people to train a batch of chefs for the King of Zhao, the King of Zhao would have wanted to snatch people from the Lu Family Army.
"Then Yu will wait for the good news from Your Highness! Your Highness, remember to send someone to Luoyang's Lu Chamber of Commerce to learn cooking skills! I've already made arrangements!"
Lu Yu bowed respectfully.
"Haha! Good! Then this king will be leaving!"
The King of Zhao chuckled and immediately left under the escort of thousands of soldiers.
In the next month or so,
The situation at the Jizhou battlefield was good.
Lu Zhi's army was advancing step by step, compressing the living space of the Yellow Turban Army step by step.
Soon, Zhang Jiao and the main force of the Yellow Turban Army were forced to Guangping and Guangzong.
At this point, Zhang Jiao's defeat was only a matter of time!
However, the Yellow Turban Army under Zhang Jiao's command was still extremely large, numbering in the hundreds of thousands.
In comparison, Lu Zhi's side only had a hundred thousand soldiers, the gap was still huge.
Therefore, Lu Zhi chose to advance step by step and fight steadily.
They were prepared to slowly nibble away and drag down the Yellow Turban Army.
........
At this moment, Luoyang was as calm as water on the surface, but in the dark, there were already flashes of swords and shadows of swords, and undercurrents were surging.
The King of Zhao had arrived at Luoyang safely a month ago.
After meeting the Spirit Monarch for the first time, he also reported Lu Yu's achievements.
The Spirit Monarch was also very interested in this new young talent.
At the same time, Lu Zhi's victory tally had also arrived in Luoyang and landed in the hands of the Spirit Monarch.
However, the reward for Lu Yu had not been given.
It wasn't that the Spirit Monarch was unwilling, but that the Yuan clan and the General clan had been looking for excuses to stop him.
In addition, the eunuch group also intervened.
It was not that they had a grudge against Lu Yu.
Their main target was never Lu Yu, but Lu Zhi.
Anyone with discerning eyes could see that the situation in Jizhou was good and the battle was about to be decided.
The peaches were about to ripen!
How could the Yuan family, Great General He Jin, and the eunuchs endure it?
Naturally, he wanted to reach out and pick the peach.
Therefore, the matter of Lu Yu's reward was delayed.
"These aristocrats are too greedy! Previously, when they were asked to contribute, they all made excuses. Now that they saw that victory was about to be won, they all ran out to pick the peaches! How preposterous!"
In the palace, the Spirit Monarch was furious.
During this period of time, he had already been disgusted by the faces of those aristocrats.
He still had a way to suppress the eunuchs, but he was truly powerless against the gentry and the general.
"He Jin, this dog is even more despicable! I supported him to help me balance the Shi clan, not to let him collude with them! I wish I could kill him directly!"
"Without zhen, he was originally just a butcher who slaughtered pigs, but now he's shaking! You actually go against me time and time again!"
"Does he really think that the Yuan family will cooperate with him and help him?”
"Doesn't this stupid pig know what he's capable of?”
"When you're done using me, won't you still be slaughtered?”
The Spirit Monarch was about to cry from He Jin's stupidity!
He had never seen such a stupid thing.
He regretted it!
He shouldn't have trusted He Jin, this butcher with thick eyebrows and big eyes.
King Zhao couldn't remain silent and said,""Imperial Brother, calm down! There was no need to be angry over an idiot! It won't be good if your dragon body is damaged from anger!"
"The situation has already come to this! It was better to think of a solution now!”
It was not a good thing to continue being stubborn!
"Hey!"
When the Spirit Monarch heard this, he heaved a long sigh.""How could I not know?"
As he spoke, his eyes turned ruthless. But to do exactly as they wanted? Humph!"
The Spirit Monarch smiled meaningfully.
After the morning court session the next day, the few parties basically reached a tacit understanding.
The Spirit Monarch also sent Zuo Feng from the Little Yellow Sect as an envoy. He set off for Jizhou with the mission of rewarding and recruiting soldiers.
However, compared to the bright Jizhou battlefield, Yanzhou was losing ground.
Huangfu Song and Zhu Juan's main forces were about to retreat to Changshe.
The situation was very bad.
The Spirit Monarch could only watch on anxiously, but there was nothing he could do.
Sometimes, he even felt that it was good to be a little rotten.
He would only be free to clean up the mess if it was destroyed.
However, the military power in his hands was too weak.
Originally, He Jin was the helper he had pushed out.
In the end, this fellow was directly persuaded by the Shi clan to defect.
Now, the Spirit Monarch's military power had been greatly weakened.
Even if they wanted to take advantage of the Yellow Turban bandits 'rebellion to destroy the local aristocratic families' forces, intervene in the area, and take back some local rights, they were helpless.
"Will Lu Yu be my assistant?”
The Spirit Monarch couldn't help but think.
However, he remembered Lu Yu's background.
Although this person was young, he was from the Lu family of Wu County.
He was also a great aristocratic family for many years.
However, they were not on the same side as the Guan Dong Group led by the Yuan family and the Guan Long Group led by the Yang family.
This was also the reason why the Spirit Monarch was willing to give it a try.
In addition, he still had some other plans and backup plans, but he did not use them yet.
Waiting for the right time.
