Chapter 59
Shang Shixu pressed on Lin Jingmo's body, hugged Lin Jingmo's waist with both hands, felt her body temperature through the gauze, and suddenly felt hot and uneasy. He tried his best to suppress the desire of his body, and asked in a hoarse voice : "Madam, what do you want to ask?"

Lin Jingmo held his hand tightly again. She turned over and held Shang Shixu down, lowered her body slightly, approached Shang Shixu's earlobe, and said slowly, "Why did you lie to me?"

The hot air sprayed behind Shang Shixu's ears, but he was suddenly startled, and turned his head to look into Lin Jingmo's eyes in a panic: What did she know?
Lin Jingmo looked at him with a triumphant smile and said: "The heartbeat has already betrayed you, my husband." After saying that, she moved closer to his face, their lips were only a short distance away, she lowered her eyes and said softly: "You... adore me!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Shang Shixu hugged Lin Jingmo tightly, pressed her under him again, and held her lips precisely, his kiss was warm, fiery and passionate.

At that moment just now, he thought he would lose her. Fortunately, she didn't know anything yet, and he was completely satisfied. At this moment, Shang Shixu made up his mind that even if he would be resented by Lin Jingmo in the future, he wanted to truly love her. own her.

Shang Shixu finally gave Lin Jingmo an answer, some love, needless to say, but he would rather die himself, would rather be misunderstood by the other party, and don't want her to be hurt together.

……

……

On the second day, Lin Jingmo slowly opened her eyes, and Shang Shixu's even breathing behind her reminded her that after last night, they were already a real couple.

Thinking of this, Lin Jingmo's face was full of unstoppable smiles.

Shang Shixu embraced her from behind Lin Jingmo, and gently kissed her on the neck, only to hear his lazy voice mixed with sleepiness: "Madam is awake? Are you feeling unwell?"

Lin Jingmo realized something, blushed instantly, did not answer, and struggled fiercely to get under the quilt.

Shang Shixu smiled and said, "Madam and I are under the same quilt, can you escape from my palm by hiding under the quilt?"

Lin Jingmo simply turned around when he heard the words, covered his mouth with both hands and said, "Don't say any more!"

Shang Shixu looked at her tenderly, and kissed her palm lightly, Lin Jingmo shyly moved his hand away.

Shang Shixu smiled and said, "Listen to Madam."

Lin Jingmo nestled into Shang Shixu's arms. When the two of them were talking about each other, they heard someone preaching outside: "Master Minister, General Lu is dead."

"What?" Shang Shixu sat up when he heard the words, and hurriedly dressed, and when he left, he didn't forget to ask Shuangyin to clean up for Lin Jingmo.

When Shang Shixu came to the main courtyard, he happened to run into Yu Qianzhi who was rushing over. Sure enough, he saw that the white silk had been hung up in the courtyard.

In the center of the hall, there is a coffin, a white candle is burning on the table, and a paper brazier is placed on the ground.

Shang Shixu walked to the side of the coffin. Before the coffin was closed, the corpse was indeed Lu Anmin. There was a deep purple strangle mark on his neck.

"Ah? General Lu! How did this happen?" Shang Shixu looked at Lu Feicheng who was kneeling on the ground and said, "How could General Lu?"

Lu Feicheng held out a letter and said to Shang Shixu, "This is the suicide note left by my father."

"Suicide note?" Yu Gaizhi suddenly felt that the matter was not that simple, so he stepped forward to help Lu Feicheng who was on the ground and said, "Young General, there are too many people here, why don't we go to the inner hall to discuss together?"

Lu Feicheng nodded, and several people entered the inner hall.

Lu Feicheng handed the letter to Shang Shixu and cried, "After my father ordered the rice from the grain depot last night, the servants discovered that my father hanged himself on the beam this morning..."

Shang Shixu opened the letter, quickly read the contents of the letter, looked at Yu Qianzhi beside him and said: "The letter said that General Lu reached an agreement with Beiyan in order to maintain his position. Beiyan pretended to attack the city, but did not break the agreement." city, it can be distributed to Southern Qi to supply more than half of the grain and grass in the north."

Yu Gaizhi took the letter from Shang Shixu, hurriedly read through a few pages, and looked up at Shang Shixu in disbelief: "This... Major General, has the handwriting of this letter been checked?"

Lu Feicheng cried: "It's my father's handwriting! I didn't expect my father to be so confused."

Shang Shixu only had to reply, "Major General, please express my condolences."

……

After leaving the mourning hall, Shang Shixu and Yu Qianzhi returned to Yu Qianzhi's room.

Yu Qianzhi took out the account books he had sorted out, and said: "The young master also went to the grain depot yesterday. I believe it is not difficult to find that there are problems in both the account books, armament records and generals' combat records. General Lu, as the guard of the northern border, really There is an unshirkable responsibility, but... if it is said that he is the mastermind, I don't believe it."

"Here, call me your lord." Shang Shixu sighed and said, "You and I know what's going on in the northern border, but we don't know who is the mastermind in the northern border. What Chen Mianzheng meant was for us to casually assign it to a general who defended the army, but who knew that the last person to die was General Lu, who took all the blame for his crimes before he died... Any news from Zhang Yiqian? "

Yu Gaizhi refolded Lu Anmin's suicide note and said: "When I set off from Beijing, he came to find me and asked me to stop you from finding out the truth. If you have the answer, you will report the results of the investigation as soon as you return to Beijing." Tell him, and we will discuss together how to change our words and claim credit."

Shang Shixu sneered and said, "Hmph, in order to please Zhang Yiqian, King Zhao actually asked the Three Great Kings of Beiyan to kill Lin Jingmo, but I rescued him. I am afraid that Zhong Shuling knew that Zhang Yiqian would not buy it, so he found a replacement in advance." Sinful lamb, General Lu counted the money and food with me yesterday, so he must know that there is something wrong with it."

Yu Ganzhi hurriedly asked: "You mean... General Lu didn't hang himself? Someone killed him?"

Shang Shixu shook his head: "Whether it was hanging himself or being killed, you and I can't draw a conclusion. But now, the conclusion you and I got after checking the accounts is basically consistent with the content in Lu Anmin's suicide note. In order not to offend Chen Mianzheng, we can only I went back to Beijing with this result."

Yu Qianzhi could only nod when he heard the words: "What about after returning to Beijing? How do I report back to Zhang Yiqian?"

"There is no need to startle the snake, I have told you the truth, I will record all the investigation results and hand them over to you, and I will give you all the credit. I just need to give Zhongshu Ling a result." Shang Shixu suddenly looked a little lonely: "It's a pity General Lu worked hard all his life to protect the country, but in the end he was ruined and died for some unknown reason..."
