Husband has a sweetheart

Chapter 225 The flower in the sky is still there

The prince's sedan appeared at the entrance of the alley, and the bearers were running very fast, panting.

Before the sedan stopped, the prince couldn't wait to get out of the sedan. His lame legs were unsteady and he stumbled to the ground. After being helped up by the chief attendant, he hurriedly stood in front of Lu Wei.

"Awei, you can't leave!" The prince looked anxious and worried.

Zhang Yuying was overjoyed and said quickly: "Your Highness, stop him quickly!"

Lu Wei looked at his former friend, but without dismounting, he said coldly: "You were also involved in lying to me, weren't you?"

The prince opened his mouth and looked at Lu Wei's cold eyes, not knowing what to say.

Zhang Yuying insisted on becoming a queen before letting the young emperor write the edict on the Zen throne. How could Lu Wei agree to demote his wife as a concubine? They had to come up with this strategy. They wanted to stabilize Lu Wei first and pretended to agree to Fang Qin becoming the emperor and marrying Zhang Yuying.

They were thinking that on the day when he ascended the throne as emperor, a group of people would swarm up and put the yellow robe on Lu Wei. Would Lu Wei still want it?

Lu Wei clamped his legs around the horse's belly and was about to leave.

The prince hurriedly opened his arms to stop Lu Wei, and said sincerely: "I'm very sorry about my sister-in-law. Please forgive me for your condolences. Please think twice about leaving the capital. A Wei, you can't just leave like this! Your every move has nothing to do with it. The situation in the world and the stability of the court..."

Lu Wei looked indifferent, "What do you say have to do with me?"

The calm tone matched his haggard appearance after suffering mental torture for more than a month, revealing a sense of despair and lifelessness.

The prince stared blankly at him riding away.

He and Zhang Yuying chased them to the city gate, where 20 black-armored troops with one man and two horses were ready to go outside the city, standing there neatly and solemnly.After Lu Wei passed by on horseback, the black-armored army uniformly mounted their horses and galloped away.

The sound of horse hooves was like thunder, deafening, and the earth was shaking.

After a while, not even the shadow of the black armored army could be seen.

Zhang Yuying was so frightened that she covered her face and cried, cursing the prince as a lame waste who couldn't even keep Lu Wei, and the Great Xia Dynasty was about to end.

Lu Wei didn't know anything about what happened in the capital.

He ran at the front on horseback, the whistling wind blowing past his ears, making his ears buzz and giving him a splitting headache.

Behind them, Fang Mo and Meng Zeliang tried their best to catch up, but they were far behind.

Lu Wei's head became heavier and heavier, and the scene in front of him became increasingly blurry. He reached out and touched it, only to find that his eyes were filled with tears.

After several days of forced marching and more than a month of stress, his mind and body had reached their limits.

The closer he got to Liangzhou, the place where he and Zhang Yuqing fell in love, the more afraid he became.

When we arrived at Baochuan, it was already evening, dark clouds were covering the sky, and an autumn rain was about to come.

Duan Shu got the news early and stood at the city gate to greet him.

When passing the city gate, Duan Shu greeted him with a smile and calmly shouted: "Wei'er."

Lu Wei acted as if he hadn't heard anything and sat on the horse with a numb expression, letting the horse walk slowly past, completely ignoring Duan Shu.

Duan Shu looked a little confused and signaled the accompanying maid to take the children out of the carriage.

Lu Zhao pulled Lu Xiao and trotted behind Lu Wei, timidly shouting: "Father!"

Lu Wei's back froze, as if he had been struck by lightning. His already tortured spirit could no longer bear the sound of his immature father. He recalled Luo Danxia's words scolding him and asked him how to face Zhang Yuqing's three children and how to tell them. How their mother died.

How could he have the nerve to face the child?How could he have the nerve to tell the children how Zhang Yuqing died!

Lu Wei did not dare to look back at Lu Zhao and the others, so he suddenly galloped on his horse and ran straight back to the Tongzhi Mansion.

Although Lu Wei had been promoted to an official in recent years and was under the control of Liangzhou, they still lived in the original Dusi Mansion in Baochuan. They just changed the plaque and built a few more houses.

The walls of the backyard are covered with Lingxiao flowers planted by Zhang Yuqing.

Now that it has entered autumn, the Lingxiao flowers are no longer as gorgeous as they were in midsummer, and the sparse leaves are hanging on the wall.

He remembered that year, Zhang Yuqing used a small hoe to plant seeds on the wall. She raised her head and told him with a smile that it would be beautiful when the Lingxiao flowers covered the entire wall.

It is indeed beautiful, Lu Wei thought sadly. When the flowers are blooming at the right time, they bloom wildly and fill the branches. The beauty makes people's hearts tremble. However, when the flowers are gone, they are so decadent, just like a person's life has come to an end.

It's frightening.

Lu Wei covered his ears, and his ears were filled with Zhang Yuqing's voice. This was his and Zhang Yuqing's home, where they were intimate, had children, talked by candlelight at night, she laughed, she scolded...

He shouldn't have come back here. Every plant and tree here was filled with memories of him and Zhang Yuqing. Returning here would only make him more sad.

The dark clouds were rolling, the leaves on the wall were swaying in the wind, and heavy raindrops were falling.Lu Wei stood there dumbly, watching the leaves of the Lingxiao flower swirling and falling to the ground under the impact of wind and rain.

Duan Shu came in holding an umbrella, and what she saw was Lu Wei standing there in the rain with an ashen face. She was so angry that she yelled, "Look at you, what do you look like!"

"Go back to the house!" Duan Shu raised the umbrella above Lu Wei's head, softened her voice and persuaded.

Looking at her son, who was a head taller than her, Duanshu sighed. Unknowingly, Lu Wei was already a man of indomitable spirit. He should have made contributions, led the country, and become the overlord, but he was hampered by the love between his children and was unable to do so. Climb to the top.

Duan Shu was anxious and pulled Lu Wei's sleeve to lead him into the house.

Lu Wei raised his head and looked deeply at Duan Shu.

"My family is ruined now, are you satisfied?" Lu Wei said word by word.

The dark clouds became denser and darker, and a bolt of lightning shone like a dragon in the clouds, reflecting Lu Wei's gray and gloomy eyes, which made Duan Shu's heart beat with fear.

"I, we didn't expect..." Duan Shu said incoherently, her beautiful face full of panic, "I never thought about letting her die, I really like her..."

Lu Wei murmured: "When the children grow up, how will you and I tell them how their mother died in our hands?"

Duan Shu's hands were trembling and she couldn't hold the umbrella steady, and she shouted: "We didn't kill her! It must have been Lu Dewen who planned it. It was him and his group of bastards who planned it, not me! Don't blame me, I It’s all for your own good!”

Lu Wei collapsed to the extreme, but he laughed, with a bleak smile, saying that it was for his own good, and his family was ruined.

"If she had stayed in Baochuan and waited for you to become emperor and welcome her as queen, how could she have suffered such a misfortune? She couldn't tolerate others and was unwilling to suffer any grievances, so she had to go to the capital. The capital is turbulent and treacherous. The Fang forces are entrenched, and she actually ran over to you like this, she can't blame anyone else!" Duan Shu shouted nervously.

It seems that putting all the blame on Zhang Yuqing can reduce Lu Wei's resentment towards her and reduce her inner guilt.

Lu Wei's heart ached like a knife and he couldn't breathe.

Zhang Yuqing risked his life and ran to the capital just to ask him a question.

When they met at the gate of Fansiyuan, Qingqing must still be willing to believe him.

Duan Shu was still nagging Lu Wei: "It's enough for you to do this for her, and she can rest in peace under Jiuquan. Now the capital is empty. If you are willing, we still have a chance. If you really don’t want to marry the Queen Mother, forget it, we will lead the troops to occupy the capital..."

How could she be willing to give up after holding back for so many years in order to regain the throne that should belong to her father?Is it just because Zhang Yuqing died?

The heavy rain poured down, Lu Wei staggered into the rain, raised his head and laughed.

He must have committed too many sins in his previous life and suffered retribution in this life. Even if he was lucky enough to marry the girl he loved, he would not be able to escape a tragic ending.

Fang Mo and others came over and forced Lu Wei into the house.

Lu Wei ignored her, which made Duan Shu angry and disappointed.

Lu Dewen saw one love another, betrayal, and no loyalty at all. How could he give birth to a love-struck son!
How could Lu Wei, who values ​​love and justice like this, be a ruthless loner in the future?

"Where's Fang Qin?" Lu Wei sat dumbly on the chair and asked suddenly.

Duan Shu felt something in her heart and said in a steady tone: "I have something to ask him to do. He is not in Liangzhou now."

"I couldn't understand at first why Qingqing was so sure that I would marry the Queen Mother, and why she didn't believe anything I said." Lu Wei said slowly, "Later I figured it out, there must be someone she can't question. What was said to her that convinced her that I would demote my wife to a concubine.”

Lu Wei raised his eyes and saw Duan Shu's face turning pale, "That person is you."

His biological mother had already said that he would demote his wife as a concubine and marry the Queen Mother for the sake of glory and wealth. What else could Zhang Yuqing have to doubt?She had been living in poverty since she was a child and was extremely wary.

Moreover, Zhang Yuqing was so grateful for Duanshu's help and truly treated her as a mother.

Thinking of Zhang Yuqing's experience, Lu Wei's heart ached again.

After sharing the same bed for so many years, he thought he loved her and respected her, but in fact he didn't even know the pain in her heart.

"Are you going to seek justice for Zhang Yuqing and demand the life of your biological mother? Are you going to kill your biological mother to avenge her?" Duan Shu asked coldly.

Lu Wei felt cold in his heart and said: "I always have the right to know how my wife, who manages the home front for me and gave birth to my children, died in the hands of you people."

Duan Shu was extremely angry and said in a cold voice: "If I hadn't been a hostage in the capital for so many years, secretly supporting you and dealing with all the forces for you, how could you have become the king of Liangzhou?"

Lu Wei shook his head, "If it weren't for Qingqing, even if you stayed in the capital as a hostage for 100 years, I would not be the king of Liangzhou."

Duan Shu had nothing to say. She could say that Zhang Yuqing was jealous and intolerant, and she could say that Zhang Yuqing was ignorant of the general situation, but she could not unconscionably deny Zhang Yuqing's role in Lu Wei's rise.

But now that the world belongs to Lu Wei, Zhang Yuqing should let go of the power in his hands and be a harem woman with peace of mind.There were times in the previous dynasty when women tried to replace men in controlling government affairs. Did they end well?
