Zhang Yuying was furious, dragging the little emperor out and shouting: "Who said that? If you point it out, I must kill his nine tribes!"

The eunuchs and palace maids nearby advised: "Queen Mother, please calm down, you don't have to be like those villains! Now is the critical moment for you to discuss marriage with Mr. Lu. You must not do anything that will damage your reputation!"

Zhang Yuying took advantage of the situation and sat back.

She doesn't really want to kill the Nine Clans. Given her current situation, all she can use are the few people in the palace. Who of the Nine Clans can be killed?Even if the imperial edict is issued, it will make people laugh.

The eunuch and Gong'e looked at Zhang Yuying's tears falling down her cheeks, and they both lowered their heads and pretended not to notice.

Zhang Yuying's tone is still so tyrannical now, but she is just trying to hold on to the last bit of dignity of the Queen Mother. Even the low-level eunuchs in the palace, Gong E, have noticed that the current emperor and queen mother are just good-sounding titles for the sake of face. The awe of the Emperor and the Queen Mother was gone.

It is pitiful to be in such a state of desolation.

A few days later, it has been a month since Zhang Yuqing fell into the water and disappeared.

All the respectable people in the capital knew that Lu Wei's wife had been assassinated and fell into the water, and they secretly ordered their servants to prepare the funeral ceremony.Although Mrs. Lu exposed the scandal of Emperor Taichang's family before she died, who can guess Master Lu's thoughts accurately?What if I still want to marry the Queen Mother so that I can take over this country?
Why don't we hold a funeral for the fiery lady in front of us first?
Mr. Lu wants the media to marry the Queen Mother, who will be the future emperor.If Lu Wei wanted to gain a reputation for deep friendship in the history books, he would most likely have to make Mrs. Lu, who died at the right time, a former empress or something like that.

Everyone in the family was worried about Xiao Jiujiu and mentioned preparing the funeral ceremony, so as not to offend the new emperor if Lu Wei failed to prepare in a hurry when he held the funeral for Mrs. Lu.

However, a month has passed, and there is still no news from Lu Wei that there is something to do.

Of the 20 black-armored troops, [-] were stationed in the capital, and the remaining [-] went all the way down the river, hoping to turn the river upside down and find nothing.

Everyone knew that by this time, it was impossible to find living people, not even corpses.But Lu Wei went to the river every day to guard, and no one dared to stop without saying anything to stop.

Early that morning, Luo Danyang supported Luo Danxia and walked staggeringly on the rocky river beach. The maid behind Luo Danxia was still carrying a basket filled with paper money and incense candles.

When they arrived at the river, Luo Danxia took the basket from the maid's hand and lit the paper money.

The river was still roaring and rushing downstream, and there was no sign that it had swallowed up a living life.

Luo Danxia couldn't help but burst into tears and said sobbingly: "Cousin Yuqing, I'm here to see you!"

Lu Wei came over on horseback with a haggard look on his face, got furious, got off his horse, rushed over and kicked the paper money into the river, "What are you doing?"

His wife is not dead, so why burn the paper!Only dead people want paper money!
Luo Danyang pulled his sister to leave. Luo Danxia broke away from Luo Danyang's hand, pointed at Lu Wei and cursed in tears: "It's time, Mr. Lu, no need to act anymore! My cousin is dead, and it's just for the palace." Why do you need to show your passion for something that makes room for you inside? It's so hypocritical and disgusting!"

Lu Wei watched expressionlessly as the river swallowed up the paper money and paper ashes, swirling them downstream.

"Now that even paper is not allowed to be burned, what should I do if my poor sister Yuqing is underground?" Luo Danxia burst into tears. "Sister Yuqing is smart and kind. If the person I married back then was my brother and became my sister-in-law, our whole family would have taken her As a treasure, how could she be killed by her husband and buried at the bottom of the river at such a young age! Lu Wei, you are so insane, I wonder how you will have the face to face Sister Yuqing’s three children in the future!"

Luo Danyang's eyes were red, he glared at Lu Wei angrily, and forced Luo Danxia away.

Lu Wei could still hear Luo Danxia's crying and cursing in the wind, scolding him for killing his wife for glory and that he would suffer retribution in the future.

His heart, which had been numb for a long time, began to ache again.

What they say is true. If Zhang Yuqing had married Luo Danyang back then, his life would be very good now. His parents-in-law love him dearly, his husband loves him dearly, and his sister-in-law loves each other. How could he endure hardships with him? He was killed by the intrigues of his relatives who wanted to reach the sky, and he sank at the bottom of this cold and dark river, never to see the light of day.

Lu Wei sat on the river beach for another day.

In the evening, Fang Mo and Meng Zeliang met here.

"You still haven't found it there?" Fang Mo asked.

Meng Zeliang shook his head, and both of them saw disappointment and helplessness in each other's eyes.

"It's been so long..." Meng Zeliang sighed deeply and summoned up the courage to say, "Let's try to persuade you, sir. It's not an option to continue like this."

From the overall situation of the government to the people's livelihood in Liangzhou, they all waited for Lu Wei to make a decision. He could no longer fish people out of the river endlessly.

The two of them walked to Lu Wei, hesitating not knowing what to say.

Lu Wei turned his back to the two of them and spoke first. He said in a hoarse voice: "Reorganize the troops and return to Liangzhou tomorrow."

Fang Mo was startled and asked subconsciously: "Aren't you looking for your wife?"

Lu Wei didn't answer, and suddenly tears fell on his face facing the surging river.

The news that the Liangzhou army was leaving Beijing quickly spread throughout the capital.

Nowadays, the capital relies entirely on the 20 black-armored troops brought by Lu Wei to maintain stability. If Lu Wei leaves, leaving a capital that is magnificent, luxurious, empty and fragile, wouldn't anyone be able to come in and become the emperor?
Zhang Yuying was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

Ever since Zhang Yuqing's accident, Lu Wei had gone crazy fishing for people by the river every day. Hundreds of miles of river from upstream to downstream had been turned upside down, and he couldn't even see his face.Now Lu Wei is no longer looking for anyone. Although he has given up, he actually wants to lead the army back to Liangzhou. What will she and the little emperor do if Lu Wei leaves?Orphans and widowers should not be slaughtered by mermaids!
Zhang Yuying no longer cared about showing off the Queen Mother's reserve in front of Lu Wei, and hurriedly left the palace to Fansi Courtyard. She wanted to see Lu Wei today no matter what.

Lu Wei heard the noise of Fang Mo and Zhang Yuying arguing outside and walked out.

Zhang Yuying was not overly happy when she saw Lu Wei, but she was startled when she saw the person clearly.

However, we haven't seen Lu Wei for more than a month. He is haggard, dark and thin, with a look of decadence and death on his face.

"Brother Wei!" Zhang Yuying quickly forced out a smile.

Lu Wei was wearing armor and waved his hand. Fang Mo, who was blocking Zhang Yuying, retreated behind Lu Wei and looked at Zhang Yuying with disdain.

"What are you doing here?" Lu Wei asked.

Zhang Yuying smiled and said: "Our marriage..."

"I'm not married to you, never have been, and never will be in the future." Lu Wei said coldly.

There were hundreds of guards stationed at the gate of Fansiyuan, and everyone heard Lu Wei's words clearly.

Zhang Yuying couldn't hold back the smile on her face and said with resentment: "Brother Wei, didn't we all agree? Why did you change your mind again?"

"Who did you make an agreement with?" Lu Wei asked.

Zhang Yuying was speechless.

Lu Wei added: "You told me before that you were willing to marry Fang Qin, but you and Fang Qin teamed up to lie to me."

Zhang Yuying's face turned red and she said angrily: "You can't blame us for this. Fang Qin has no power. Even if you elect him to be the emperor, will he be able to secure the throne? The world is going to be in chaos again! It's better that you just sit down. In this position, everyone is willing to see this result! You are too naive! As soon as Zhang Yuqing is involved, you will be stupid!"

She was so angry that she didn't know what to say. Lu Wei was so stupid that in order to stay with Zhang Yuqing for a long time, he even didn't care about the emperor's throne!Even Lu Dewen and Duan Shu couldn't make Lu Wei change his mind!

Crazy!
What kind of poison did Zhang Yuqing have that poisoned Lu Wei into such a stupid look!

Lu Wei looked calm and nodded: "I was stupid and fell into your trap and killed my wife."

Zhang Yuying's chest heaved with anger, and she held back her anger and persuaded: "Brother Wei, I can't stand Zhang Yuqing, but I never thought of harming her life."

She swore that she wanted to be Lu Wei's queen and take care of Zhang Yuqing, but she never thought of stabbing him to death.

"Now that we have reached this point, sister Yuqing is no longer alive. You, if you leave now, you will get nothing!" Zhang Yuying hinted.

Lu Wei didn't want to marry her because of Zhang Yuqing before. Now that Zhang Yuqing is dead, Lu Wei should no longer have any taboos. He just married her and took over the throne. Why not?

"I don't want the throne of your family." Lu Wei said flatly, as if he was saying that he didn't want to wear a certain piece of clothing today.

Zhang Yuying couldn't hold back her anger, her hands and feet were trembling, so she retreated and asked: "Brother Wei, our marriage can be slowed down, but can you not leave with the troops first?"

Lu Wei gave her a cold look, "No, unless my dead wife comes back to life."

Zhang Yuying's whole body felt hairy at his glance. Lu Wei didn't seem to be looking at the Queen Mother, he was clearly looking at a dead person.

The adjutant brought Lu Wei's horse. Lu Wei got on the horse, and Fansiyuan, which was already empty, closed the door behind him.

Zhang Yuying was completely panicked. She stopped in front of Lu Wei's horse and begged incoherently: "Brother Wei, I was wrong, we were all wrong, you can't leave!"

The Queen Mother, who had always maintained her majesty and dignity in front of everyone, with her head held high, showed a panicked look for the first time, blocking Lu Wei like a shrew, crying loudly.

Lu Wei looked at her condescendingly, full of disgust.

He hates these people who forced him to submit and killed Zhang Yuqing. He hates God who arranged this fucking fate. He hates himself even more.

"Spread the news." Lu Wei ordered the adjutant beside him, "No matter who breaks into the capital and occupies the throne, I, Lu Wei, will never say anything."

After saying that, Lu Wei flicked his whip and the horse galloped away, not caring about Zhang Yuying who was still standing in front of the horse.

The accompanying palace maid and eunuch pulled Zhang Yuying back with quick eyes and hands, almost passing by the galloping horse.

Zhang Yuying couldn't care anymore and chased after him with a pale face, crying for Lu Wei to come back quickly.

She couldn't even imagine what fate would await her later.
