Shenwu, the 6th year, 11th month, 13th day.
Upon Lu Yuan's summons, Zhou Qing and Sun Siwen hurried from Xiangyang for days and finally arrived at Baling City.
Without taking time to rest, the two arrived in the city and immediately went to meet Lu Yuan.
"Master!"
"Brother Lu!"
As soon as they met, Zhou Qing and Sun Siwen couldn't help but take a couple of steps forward, excitedly surrounding Lu Yuan.
Their relationship was as close as can be, all of them having come from their hometown of Dayu County. Afterwards, they remained inseparable during their time in Changning County, Wugang County, and Shaoyang Prefecture.
Lu Yuan had always regarded Zhou Qing as a son, and Sun Siwen as a brother. The two of them also regarded him as a father and brother, their bond as close as family.
Although there was now a monarch-minister relationship between the three of them, it didn't affect their friendship.
