Dayong Nu sentenced to death

Lu House.

Lu Heng bumped into the housekeeper and asked, "Where is father?"

"The head of the family was ordered to enter the palace. He said he wanted to discuss government affairs and might return late."

"Go get busy."

After watching the housekeeper leave, he looked vaguely in that direction and said to Jin Wudu behind him: "These days, my father is not here more often, right?"

Jin Wudu heard his displeasure and lowered his head in agreement.

"Have you found anyone?"

"I received a message yesterday saying that I have arrived there and there should be news soon."

Lu Heng shook off the folding fan, turned around and walked towards Lanyuan, "Let them speed up."

"Yes."

"How about the Haiyan Qinghe River?"

"The message was sent, but for some reason there was no reply..."

After saying the words, Lu Heng paused for a moment, then continued walking forward as if nothing had happened, "It's up to them, they can't cause any trouble for the time being."

"Son."

Jin Wudu hesitantly called out, "Old sir, the place is ready."

"understood."

Listening to Lu Heng's words, Jin Wudu said softly: "Sir, the situation has reached a critical moment. Why don't you put off the trial of the medicine?"

"Need not."

"But……"

Before Jin Wudu finished speaking, the person in front of him turned around and glanced at him. His eyelids twitched and he suddenly fell silent.

Due to the national mourning, the court was in chaos this year.

When the Ministry of Rites was preparing for the enthronement ceremony, Li Yu was not idle either. The cabinet ministers and Lu Chuqing taught the emperor's policies and court affairs. He was smart, diligent and eager to learn. Over time, he gradually gained some reputation in the court.

This morning, we will discuss Dongzhou's tax policy again.

There was a conflict between some conservative old ministers and the courtiers who supported Li Yu. At first, there was a verbal dispute, and then they got angry and even used fists and kicks. An old man fainted in anger. left eye.

This is like poking a hornet's nest.

Several factions of officials who had maintained superficial peace completely turned their backs and began to fight openly and secretly. Six ministries were in chaos. After returning home, Xun Qi stared at red eyes and was seen by Xun Zeli. He touched his chin and looked at it for a long time. After knowing the cause and effect, he couldn't help but Laughed.

"It would be awkward to fight this one..."

Xun Qi shouted angrily: "You bastard, your father was beaten and you still made sarcastic remarks. Do you have filial piety?"

"Oh, calm down, calm down."

Xun Zeli helped him sit down and whispered: "If they want to fight, let them fight. Why are you joining in the fun at your age?"

Xun Qi thought of the handwritten letter he received that day, pursed his lips and said nothing.

"Don't go out and cause trouble during this period, otherwise you'll have to stay in the Criminal Department."

"Look at what you're saying, as if I'm a troublemaker."

"do not you?"

Xun Qi looked solemn, covered his eyes, and warned: "Don't talk nonsense. If you want your father to live a few more years, remember what you say to me."

"Is something going to happen in the court?"

Xun Zeli stopped joking and looked at him seriously, "Father, that edict of passing the throne, the rumors about His Highness Li Yun, and the private prince who suddenly appeared at the right time... There is something fishy in these, I don't believe you. Don’t come out.”

"You can see it. Do you think those old foxes in the court can't see it?"

Xun Qi said angrily: "There are too many hidden dangers laid by the late emperor, the case of the Jinxiu Army, the prince who was born in the Yan family, the injustice of the Xie family... and the weird attitudes of the courtiers. These must be cleared up." The flesh was deboned and the blood flowed into rivers.

This is the way to go.

Speaking of the latter, Xun Qi waved his hand and said, "Anyway, don't worry too much. Take care of your mother and yourself. I will take care of the rest."

Seeing how relaxed he said it, Xun Zeli's eyebrows were filled with worry and fatigue. He couldn't bear to cause any more trouble at the moment and nodded silently.

The same scene was shown in many mansions.

No matter how rough things were underneath, the preparations for the enthronement ceremony were in order. Two days before the ceremony, Lu Heng received a letter. After seeing it, he abruptly broke the orchid fan in his hand.

Jin Wudu stood beside him, feeling terrified when he saw the ferocious look in his eyes.

"Son..."

"Have you returned home?"

Lu Heng took a deep breath and suppressed the malice in his heart. Jin Wudu knew who he was asking and hurriedly said: "The head of the family is in the study."

Before he could raise his head, a gust of wind blew past his eyes, and there was no one left.

When Lu Heng arrived in the study, the man was still writing a note in front of the desk, which was about taxation. He glanced at it and said nothing. His whole shadow was pressed in front of the desk, covering Lu Chuqing.

"Who let you in."

Lu Chuqing's tone was cold, and Lu Heng stared at him until his eyes forced Lu Chuqing to stop writing and look up.

The father and son looked at each other, both looking gloomy.

"Who is that in the palace?"

Lu Chuqing frowned, "What nonsense did you say?"

"In the early years, you used the name of patrolling salt and had people pretend to be you and walked around. In fact, you went to Kangmao and stayed at the merchant's house in the name of teaching."

"You sent someone to check on me?"

Lu Chuqing frowned, "Who gave you the courage!"

"There is nothing I can do about it. Father, you made your life experience so impeccable. I can only find another way."

The corners of Lu Heng's mouth widened, but his eyes were cold, "How would I know if I didn't check that I actually have a younger brother in this world."

Let him charge into battle and bleed with all his might.

Trapped in conspiracy and conspiracy.

In the end, it is paving the way for others!

"What nonsense are you talking about."

Lu Chuqing stared at him, "Lan You, you have become more and more disobedient recently."

"You still want to lie to me!"

Lu Heng swept away the pen holder and inkstone on the table. After the crackling sound, he leaned over the table and looked at Lu Chuqing across the table.

"That's not Li Yi's son at all. You sent someone to kill that child when he was more than half a year old, and then sent a child disguised as him to replace him. As he got older, he gradually took off the mask. , showing people their true colors, so no flaws can be found at all.”

"The one living in the world now is the son you had with a singer. You killed the singer after giving birth, and his body was buried under the poplar tree in the Huaihe River where you two met."

"Do you still want to quibble?"

After Lu Chu cleared up his initial confusion, his subsequent reaction was particularly calm. He stared at the objects on the ground out of the corner of his eye, remained silent for a long time, and whispered: "Why do you have to dig into the details? Isn't it better to pretend to be confused?"

Lu Heng thought that he would panic, quibble, comfort, or get angry.

But I never expected him to ask him calmly, "Isn't it better to pretend to be confused?"
He had been manipulated like a fool for many years, and the moment the truth was discovered, he didn't deserve any guilt or pity.

Lu Chuqing looked at his suddenly cracked expression and continued: "It's good that you know, you have to support Ayu well in the future."
