Myth: Heaven and Earth

Chapter 75 Hiding
During this time, Lu Heng and the Bai family had less interaction.

Unlike a few years ago, Bai Wenshi often sent people to invite Lu Heng to Bai's house for dinner.

Thinking that he learned something from Bai Jingqi's mouth, he was intimidated and deliberately distanced himself.

Lu Heng was happy to see it succeeded.

He wanted nothing from the Bai family.Instead, he was worried that the Bai family would be implicated by him.That being the case, it is better to have a distance.

Just a little bit about the top-grade medicinal materials in the Bai family's library.
Only the third master Bai, as always.

For these days, Bai Jingqi didn't see each other again.I came today to say goodbye.

He will leave the capital tomorrow and go to Shandong again.

Lu Heng nodded and said nothing.Just wish him the best of luck.

After Bai Jingqi was gone, the third master Bai took Lu Heng aside and asked him, "I've been going back these few days, and every time I mention you, the second and the second talk about other things. Is there any misunderstanding?"

Co-author Bai Sanye doesn't know anything.

Lu Heng smiled and said, "There's no misunderstanding. It's my chores, and it's not good for the Bai family. The second uncle and second aunt saw it. I'm so happy too."

When Bai Sanye heard it, he blew his beard and stared: "what are you talking about? You are my nephew! The family doesn't say anything about the two. What's the matter, can the Bai family help you? "

He complained again: "The second child is really. You wait, I have to ask him to clarify when I go back!"

Lu Heng hurriedly said: "Don't. Third uncle, my business is my own business. I don't want to involve the Bai family. If there is any trouble, I will handle it myself, and the relationship with the Bai family will not change."

Anyway, talk about it, persuade Bai Sanye to stop.

At this time, a junior came over and said, "Uncle Jin wants to meet the boss."

Hearing this, Lu Heng raised his head, and Jin Quan beckoned to say hello not far away.

Then he said to the third master Bai, "I'm going to see Jinquan."

Strolling over, he cupped his hands: "Mr. Jin, it's good morning."

As soon as Jin Quan came, he saw Lu Heng when he entered the garden. Seeing him with a natural expression and a flushed face, he was secretly shocked-Jin Quan thought that it must have been Lu Heng who stabbed Cixi last night. No damage.

But looking at him at this time, there was no damage at all.

This shows what?
It shows that he is powerful, or that the assassin last night was not him.

With his mind turning, Jin Quan smiled and handed over: "Boss Lu is early too."

Then he said, "I haven't seen Boss Lu for a few days. What is Boss Lu doing?"

Lu Heng laughed: "Stay at home and overeat."

After speaking, he entered Jin Quan's exclusive box.

The servant came up to serve tea and snacks.

Close the door.

Jin Quan's expression became clear: "Boss Lu is well-informed, can you know the earth-shattering event that happened last night?"

Lu Heng was astonished: "What kind of event is so earth-shattering?"

Jin Quan observed his words and looked at his face, but he didn't see anything, so he said, "The queen mother was stabbed by someone, and there was a night of trouble last night, doesn't Boss Lu know?"

Lu Heng laughed: "I slept to death at night."

He stroked his palms again and said, "The old witch was stabbed, that would be better."

Jin Quan couldn't tell if there was anything else in Lu Heng's words, so he said bluntly, "Could it be that the assassin last night wasn't Boss Lu?"

Lu Heng laughed: "Mr. Jin, don't talk nonsense."

It doesn't matter if anyone has guessed this matter, it doesn't matter if it's announced.

Jin Quan pondered for a while, and said: "The Queen Mother has entrusted the government to Li Zhongtang. Since the third watch last night, she has not seen anyone again. I am afraid she will hide. Boss Lu, if the Queen Mother hides, it will be difficult for you to take revenge. ."

In his tone, he was still sure that Lu Heng was the assassin from last night.

Because other than that, he couldn't think of anyone else.

Lu Heng said: "After all, the old witch is the queen mother, she is in charge of the government, she can't hide it all the time."

Jin Quan smiled and said: "That said, no one knows how long the queen mother can hide. This is full of civil and military affairs, inside and outside the forbidden palace, and most of them are the queen mother's confidants. She only needs to hide, push the emperor out again, and remote control from behind. Absolutely."

After Lu Heng heard this, he finally frowned.

What he thought before was just like what he said, the old witch is in charge of the government, and she can't stay out of her face forever.She doesn't show up, isn't she afraid that the government will be out of control?
Always show up.

But when Jin Quan said this, Lu Heng couldn't be sure.

If what he said was true, the old witch pushed Guangxu out again, and hid in the dark with a remote control. No matter how long, he could hide it for a year and a half.

Lu Heng turned his heart and suddenly said, "Li Lianying should know where the old witch is hiding."

Jin Quan shook his head slightly: "Don't underestimate the queen mother. Although she doesn't have the ability to run the country, her mind is as deep as the sea. She can think of most of what you can think of. In my opinion, Li Lianying probably doesn't know where she is. place."

Lu Heng's heart sank, and he instinctively agreed with Jin Quan's words.

Li Lianying may be important, but there are ten or eight procedures in the middle. Li Lianying probably cannot directly know where the old witch is, and can only contact the old witch indirectly through these ten and eight procedures.

Although this is troublesome, on the one hand, it ensures safety, and on the other hand, it does not greatly delay the remote control of the government. Anyway, the government of the Manchu Qing Dynasty is sloppy, and it does not matter how bad it is.

Lu Heng knew that he might have miscalculated.

"Knowing that last night took advantage of the victory to pursue"

Regret came to mind.

But his expression didn't change, but he smiled and said, "Where is the old witch hiding? Mr. Jin, help me find her?"

Jin Quan laughed tacitly.

He said: "The Queen Mother is the backbone of the court. No matter what, it is necessary to find her. But it is not easy, and I am afraid it will take a long time."

Lu Heng said: "I am waiting for good news."

After a few chats, Lu Heng said goodbye to Jinquan and left Sifang Garden.

On the way home, Lu Heng pondered deeply.

What Jin Quan said, there is a high probability that it will be realized, and the old witch is very likely to hide in the dark but push Guangxu out again.So, do you want to go to the Summer Palace and slaughter Guangxu?

After slaughtering Guangxu, the old witch lost this card.

But Lu Heng thought about it and held it back.Even if Guangxu is gone, the old witch can be replaced by a hairy boy from the prince's family, anyway, who can't be a puppet?

Now he has the advantage, the old witch is at the disadvantage.There is another person with different intentions like Yuan Gongbao—Yuan Gongbao may have more murderous intentions towards the old witch than others.

The old witch has been in charge of the government for decades and is deeply ingrained.Yuan Gongbao wanted to get up and call for wind and rain, but if the old witch didn't die, he was very worried.It was like at the time of the Restoration. Originally, Tan, Kang and others had agreed with him that they should send troops to protect the success of the reform, but he went against the water.

It is because he is afraid of the old witch.

I'm afraid I hate her for not being able to die early.

Jin Quan will definitely find a way to find the hiding place of the old witch.This is a very good thing for Lu Heng.

He is alone, and the world knows it, where can he find it?Yuan Gongbao's power is huge, and he must have hidden many hidden lines in the capital. He went to the old witch, which was thousands of times more efficient than Lu Heng himself.

However, Lu Heng would not put all his hopes on Yuan Gongbao.

Because this guy really can't be trusted.

Maybe Jin Quan locked the old witch's hiding place, and wouldn't tell Lu Heng immediately, maybe Yuan Gongbao would take advantage of this condition to cooperate with other actions, or even set a trap there, and tell Lu Heng after it was completed. , let Lu Heng kill the old witch, and then launch a trap to get rid of Lu Heng!
This is not impossible.
