The Eternal Beauty of the City of Wealth

After the three of them entered the mansion, they went straight to the living room.

Today is Sunday. Yuan Huan is not at work and is reading in the study.

The doorman announced that the eldest son had returned, and he hurriedly put down his book and went to the living room.

When Yuan Ke saw his father come in, he hurriedly pulled Lu Hu to introduce him to him: "Dad, this is Lu Hu."

He said he was the son of your good friend Lu Jie, and that he had come all the way from Ju State to seek refuge with you.

Yuan Huan was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly pulled Lu Hu up and down to look him over carefully: "Good!"

"I didn't expect my nephew to have grown up to be so heroic! Please take a seat!"

Lu Hu quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Nephew Lu Hu! Greetings, uncle!"

"Alright! Huzi, please get up quickly! How is your father these days?"

Lu Hu sighed, "Alas! Uncle, my father and more than 300 members of the Lu family have all been killed by traitors!"

"Ah! This! How could this happen! Brother Lu, you, you died so tragically!"

When Yuan Huan heard that Lu Jie had been murdered and was no longer alive, he immediately stamped his feet, beat his chest and burst into tears: "Brother! My good brother! Wuuwuwu..."

Lu Hu also burst into tears and lay on Yuan Huan's knees sobbing.

After crying for a long time, Yuan Huan wiped his tears and said, "My dear nephew, why was your father framed?"

"Uncle, my father offended his superiors because of his upright character and was falsely accused of treason and collaborating with the enemy, which led to his family being brutally exterminated."

"Then, how did my nephew escape by chance?"

"Uncle, my nephew was away from home because he was studying in the mountains, so he escaped this disaster!"

"Because my nephew escaped, I killed the entire thief family! I avenged my family's blood feud!"

"Because the officers and soldiers were alarmed, I had no choice but to obey my father's orders and come to you for refuge."

Yuan Huan nodded: "So, your father often mentioned me in front of you?"

"Yes, uncle. Father often mentioned the past times he spent with you."

"And he told me that if anything unexpected happened, I should let my nephew come to Fugui City to seek refuge with you."

Yuan Huan smiled and said, "Yes, the previous king sent me to join forces with the vassal states to attack Qi."

"Your father also fought in the war on behalf of the State of Ju."

"During one battle, I was surrounded by several generals and my life was in danger."

"It was your father who saved my uncle's life with his spear. Now is the time to repay your kindness."

"From now on, you will stay in Fugui City. With my skills, I'm sure you will achieve great things!"

Yuan Ke interrupted and said, "Father, today Ri'er and I were assassinated near the royal mausoleum."

"It was Hu Zi who rescued us, so we are safe!"

Oh? This is true! These assassins are so bold! They dared to assassinate the prince in broad daylight?

"Ke'er, do you know who did this? Have you called the police?"

"Father, we don't know who did this yet. We have already called the police."

Yuan Huan nodded: "Yes, we must find the murderer! We must not let them go unpunished!"

Zi Ri also said, "Grandpa, you didn't see it at the time, but Lu Hu was so brave!"

"He single-handedly killed dozens of assassins! He even followed our car all the way here!"

"That speed is like a wild horse running free! It's incredible!"

Good! Yuan Huan excitedly slammed the table and said, "Since my nephew has such great abilities, there is no need to worry about his bright future!"

"Tomorrow I will petition the king to allow you to serve in Fugui City! What do you think, nephew?"

Lu Hu was overjoyed when he heard this and immediately stood up and saluted: "Thank you for the advice, uncle!"

After Yuan Ke and his son returned to the palace, they told Zixuan everything about the assassination attempt at the royal tomb.

Zixuan was furious after hearing this: "How outrageous! There are assassins who have tried to kill the prince time and time again!"

She took out her phone and called Qiwu: "Qiwu! Do you know anything about the assassination that happened in the royal mausoleum today?"

Qi Wu was stunned and quickly replied, "Your Majesty, I haven't received the report yet."

Zixuan could understand that as a governor, it was impossible for him to do everything personally, so it was normal that the case was not reported.

"Qiwu! You must personally investigate this case and uncover the mastermind!"

"Yes! I promise to complete the mission!" Qiwu received the order and immediately went to investigate.

Zi Rixin said, there is no need to investigate, I know who did it, but I can't say it myself.

If I tell my mother that it was Peng Qi who did it, he will become desperate and act like a mad dog, biting everyone and betraying me, which will be troublesome.

Besides, if Peng Qi was exposed by himself, according to the law, his entire clan would definitely be exterminated.

By then, Peng Ruo and her mother would also be in danger of their lives. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shudder.

He calmed himself down and said, "Mother, if Lu Hu hadn't saved you during this assassination, I'm afraid you wouldn't have been able to see your father and son."

Zixuan nodded: "Yes! The grace of saving my life is greater than heaven."

"I heard that this man is the son of an old friend of Yuan Huan, and he is extremely strong and skilled in martial arts."

"Bring him to the palace someday so my mother can see him. If he's really capable, he'll stay in the court and serve as a general."

"It just so happens that Fugui City lacks a brave warrior like him."

Zi Ri smiled softly: "Mother, my grandfather will recommend this person to you at the grand court meeting tomorrow."

"Oh? That's perfect, tell your grandfather to bring him to court tomorrow."

The next day, at court, as the meeting drew to a close, Yuan Huan stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, I have a memorial to report."

Zixuan was delighted and thought to himself, he finally spoke. My old beloved minister, you don’t know how eager I am to find talented people and I have been impatient for a long time.

"Your Majesty, yesterday the Concubine and the Young Master were assassinated, but were saved by a brave warrior."

"This person has immense strength and is highly skilled in martial arts."

"He killed dozens of assassins all by himself. He is truly a rare warrior in the world."

"Our dynasty is currently in need of such talents. I recommend him to serve in the court, to serve the King in Fugui City!"

Zixuan nodded: "Okay! Where is this person now?"

Yuan Ke pointed outside the palace and said, "Your Majesty, it's just outside the palace."

Zixuan waved his hand: "Summon him into the hall!"

After receiving the report, Lu Hu immediately straightened his chest and head and strode into the hall.

As soon as he entered the hall, the ministers exclaimed in amazement: "Wow! This big man is not a human! He is simply a god descending from heaven..."

Zixuan looked at the half-completed black tower in surprise, secretly praising it in his heart, what a mighty and domineering tiger general! Awesome!

If we could recruit him as a general, wouldn't he be able to intimidate others?

After entering the hall, Lu Hu hurriedly knelt down and saluted: "I, Lu Hu, Lu Batian, pay my respects to the king!"

Immediately, a deep baritone voice echoed in the hall.

Zixuan raised his hand hastily: "Master Lu, please stand up. May I ask where you are from?"

"Your Majesty, I am from the state of Ju, and my father is Lu Jie, a great general of that state."

When the ministers heard that Lu Hu was Lu Jie's son, they were all shocked and started talking about it.

This Lu Jie is a famous general from the Ju State. I heard that he is over nine feet tall, highly skilled in martial arts, and extremely brave...

Lu Huzhi is over ten feet tall, even taller and more powerful than his father. Like father, like son...
