Chapter 140
"My father-in-law, what do you think if you want to break this situation?"

"What's the most important point?"

Lu Yuan saw that Gu Shiqing was a little confused, so he asked him a question.

"The most important thing?"

Gu Shiqing's mind is now filled with what happened just now.

I was also thinking about the consequences to myself if this matter spread.

Will he be beheaded? Will his whole family be executed?

Or, will the nine tribes be implicated?

He had never thought about what was the most important thing to break this situation.

"The most important thing is to let the prince know the truth now."

When Gu Shiqing was hesitant and didn't know how to answer, Gu Qingwan, who was standing aside, answered directly.

"Yes, the most important thing is to let the prince know about this."

"Only in this way can the prince investigate the truth of the matter."

"And just now, we chatted for a while. If we tell the prince directly, wouldn't it be equivalent to exposing Lu Qing? It's always bad to cause trouble."

Lu Yuan explained briefly.

Although Lu Yuan is usually not afraid of Lu Qing.

But you can't offend him blatantly.

We are all brothers and relatives under the same roof.

Looking down, not looking up.

If this puts the relationship on edge, how can we get along with each other on a friendly basis in the future?
Although, Lu Yuan definitely couldn't count on Lu Qing to help him.

But he is still his brother after all, right?

Besides, Lu Qing is not aboveboard now.

Directly in Lu Yuan's face, the relationship became tense.

They were just playing tricks, so Lu Yuan was determined not to admit defeat.

Lu Yuan also played a trick on him.

"If you look at it this way."

"It's equivalent to indirectly spreading the truth to the prince's ears?"

After listening to Lu Yuan's analysis, Gu Shiqing nodded slightly.

"Even if you don't care, if you gossip a lot, you will still take it to heart."

Lu Yuan added.

"So it is."

"That's not over yet."

The stone hanging in Gu Shiqing's heart was instantly put down.

But Song Qijie is not so lucky now.

I was threatened by Zhang Tianci just now.

How could he have time to deal with Lu Qing's affairs? Of course, it was important to save his life.

What Zhang Tianci said at that time was very clear.

If Gu Shiqing commits a crime, then Lu Yuan can support him.

There was nothing he could do about Gu Shiqing.

But Song Qijie has no one to support him.

Song Qijie naturally knew that if this matter was revealed, he would be the biggest scapegoat.

In order to save the head of this project.

Song Qijie ignored it and rushed out of the prince's residence, running towards Song Fu.

Song Qijie is not afraid of death, but he can't harm his family.

Song Qijie ran back to evacuate his family members quickly.

At that time, the prince will be blamed.

Even the nine implicated clans, Song Qijie recognized it.

Anyway, when the time comes, there will be no one else, and his life will be ruined.

Seeing Song Qijie running back in a hurry, Mrs. Song was also stunned.

"Didn't you say you were going to the Prince's Mansion?"

"Why are you coming back in such a hurry? Has the matter been resolved?"

When Mrs. Song saw Song Qijie, her face was full of doubts.

"Oh, old lady, hurry up and notify your neighbors and let them run as far away as possible."

"Something happened, something big happened."

Song Qijie had a grimace on his face, and while speaking, he walked quickly towards the lobby.

Seeing Song Qijie's appearance.

Plus he looked like he was about to cry.

Mrs. Song immediately felt that something was wrong.

Mrs. Song quickly stuck her head out, and after making sure there was no one behind her, she quickly closed the door.

Song Qijie returned to the lobby and took a swig of water to feel a little relieved.

"Come on, tell me, what's going on?"

"What happened?"

Mrs. Song asked anxiously.

"The Song family is gone."

Song Qijie looked at the wall in front of him with a look of despair.

After hearing what Song Qijie said, Mrs. Song was stunned.

'thump……'

Mrs. Song's legs softened and she sat down on the ground.

"Quick, pack your things quickly and run as far as you can."

"Just let me take care of the things here."

Song Qijie came to his senses and quickly gave instructions on what to do next.

"Oh, okay, I'll do it right away."

Mrs. Song stood up from the ground.

"What about you? You are the head of the family, nothing can happen to you!"

Before Mrs. Song was about to leave, she suddenly thought of Song Qijie.

"It's because I am the head of the family that I have to bear this responsibility."

"If our son and grandson are gone, the Song family will really be gone."

Song Qijie said with a serious expression.

How could Mrs. Song care so much?

She turned around and ran towards the backyard.

Song Qijie was sitting in the lobby, quietly waiting for Zhang Tianci to arrest him.

Zhang Tianci, on the other hand, knew in his heart that he could not hide secrets.

After thinking about it, I finally walked straight into the room.

Zhang Tianci came to the side of the prince and whispered a few words.

When the prince heard Zhang Tianci's words, his eyes widened instantly.

The prince turned his face sideways and glared at Zhang Tianci in front of him.

"Normally, I can ignore your gossip, but this matter is not something you just say casually."

"This is about Longwei."

The prince stared at Zhang Tianci in front of him and said in a serious tone.

"My subordinates dare not."

When Zhang Tianci saw that the prince was angry, he knelt on the ground with a thump.

"You are the Minister of Justice, you know what the consequences will be."

The prince bent over and stared at Zhang Tianci who was kneeling on the ground in front of him.

"Prince, I don't know if this is true, but now everyone outside knows it."

"Even if you give your subordinates a hundred courages, they won't dare to spread rumors alone!"

While Zhang Tianci was speaking, he kowtowed repeatedly.

The sound of his forehead touching the ground spread throughout the room.

The prince gritted his teeth and glanced sideways at Lu Qing, who was lying on the bed.

Then the prince looked at the imperial doctor who was taking Lu Qing's pulse.

This is already the third imperial doctor.

The conclusions drawn from the first two are that they are both seriously ill and will not die soon.

The prince was naturally unwilling to give in, so he invited three more imperial doctors to line up to treat Lu Qing.

Even in order to treat Lu Qing's illness, he did not hesitate to find a folk doctor.

"Okay, I understand, you go down first."

The prince then said calmly.

"According to the order."

Zhang Tianci has finished reporting the news, so naturally he will not stay in the room any longer.

Staying by the prince's side for one more minute means one more minute of danger.

The current prince is like a bomb.

It could explode directly at any time.

"You wait."

Just when Zhang Tianci walked to the door in despair, the prince called him directly.

"Prince, do you have any other orders?"

Zhang Tianci quickly stopped and turned to look at him.

The prince gasped slightly, then rubbed his temples with one hand.

"Go, call Yuan'er in." Even if the prince didn't want to face it, he still had to face it.

"According to the order."

Zhang Tianci said, turned around and hurried out of the room.

The prince is also in a dilemma now.

He really didn't think of it.

It's because of an incident in Liaocheng that it can lead to so many disasters.

Wait until Zhang Tianci leaves.

The No. 3 imperial doctor who was treating Lu Qing also slowly stood up.

"How about it?"

The prince hurriedly stepped forward and asked anxiously.

"Harmful!"

The imperial doctor didn't say much, just shook his head.

Although the imperial doctor did not speak, it was not difficult to tell from his eyes and expression.

The results obtained by the two previous imperial doctors were almost exactly the same.

"Seriously ill?"

The prince asked.

"Extremely rare disease."

"I have been practicing medicine for decades, and I have never seen such a weird pulse."

"Saint Sun's pulse is coming and going, as if he's going to... just... just..."

The imperial doctor's face was full of embarrassment, but when it came to the last sentence, he couldn't say it anyway.

"Just what?"

The prince asked.

"If you do harm, you will die."

The imperial doctor sighed heavily.

Hearing the news, the prince was stunned again.

What is rumored here and what is happening now are completely two extremes.

People outside said that Lu Qing was pretending to be ill, but the current imperial doctor also said that he was not going to die soon.

This time, the prince was also in a bit of a dilemma.

But from the bottom of his heart, the prince still hoped that the rumors outside were true.

Because of this, Lu Qing would not die of illness.

"Okay, I see, you can go out."

The prince asked the imperial doctor to go out first, while he walked to Lu Qing's bed.

The prince looked at Lu Qing lying on the bed, his eyes full of pity.

After all, those are your own bones. If you don’t feel sorry for them, that’s just fake.

Sun Zhenzhen sat at the end of the bed, pretending to wipe away tears.

"Uncle, are you looking for me?"

At this moment, Lu Yuan walked into the room.

"sit down."

The prince directly ordered Lu Yuan to find a seat and sit there.

"Uncle, if you have any instructions that you need me to complete, just ask."

"I'm also worried about my brother's current situation."

Lu Yuan still has to do enough work on the surface.

"I just want to ask you, what do you think about the drought in Liaocheng?"

Just when Lu Yuan thought that the prince must be asking him about Lu Qing's pretending to be ill.

Who would have thought that the first sentence the prince spoke would mention the drought in Liaocheng.

"This……"

Lu Yuan hesitated.

"But it doesn't matter."

The prince turned and looked at Lu Yuan.

"Troublesome, troublesome, and unpleasant."

Later, Lu Yuan used three words to directly summarize the drought problem in Liaocheng.

What Lu Yuan said was not wrong.

Drought in Liaocheng is not a big problem.

But the problem is that even if you travel all the way to Liaocheng, the effect it can have is minimal.

Maybe, later on, things are not handled properly and you end up in a mess.

When the emperor comes back and places the blame, there will be someone who will take the blame.

Even if Lu Yuan is stupid, he can't be stupid enough to hit the gun by himself!
"Hahaha……"

"What a tough, troublesome, thankless review."

After hearing Lu Yuan's explanation, the prince laughed helplessly.

He was not only laughing at himself, but also at the entire court.

Above the court, among all the civil and military officials, how could they not find anyone who could effectively control the drought?

No one is willing to go or come up with ideas.

Why, isn't it just because, it's a chore.

The court took it for granted that the drought had been cured.

Only the people in Liaocheng would be grateful, but so what, the people's gratitude cannot be used as food or money.

But what if governance is not good?

Failure to manage drought well will lead to the title of incompetence.

Maybe, when Emperor Yongle comes back, he will directly punish that person.

This is a question that everyone can understand.

However, the prince has just understood.

"Uncle, is there anything else?"

Lu Yuan said, looking at the prince.

"The task of controlling the drought originally fell on Qing'er."

"But Qing'er, as you have seen now, you will definitely not be able to go."

"So, what do you see?"

Only later did the prince reveal his true intentions.

Lu Yuan heard the prince say these words.

I wasn't too surprised.

After all, these things, in a circle, will eventually fall on you.

And Lu Yuan had already made preparations.

If you want to run away from things that you should complete by yourself, you will definitely not be able to run away.

"I would like to go."

Lu Yuan said this with a firm expression.

Lu Qing has done this for his part.

If Lu Yuan continues to postpone, something will obviously not be good.

Besides, Lu Yuan couldn't continue to refuse in front of so many ministers.

Lu Qingdu was ill, so the problem of controlling the drought in Liaocheng naturally fell on Lu Yuan.

"Woooooooo..."

Sun Zhenzhen cried louder when she heard Lu Yuan agreed to go to Liaocheng.

What Sun Zhenzhen wanted to show was not sadness, but happiness.

Because, for them to cause such a scene, the most important thing is to put aside the matter of going to Liaocheng.

Now that the matter has been settled, the stone in Sun Zhenzhen's heart has naturally dropped.

Lu Yuan naturally saw Sun Zhenzhen's ecstatic expression.

However.

Lu Yuan's subsequent plans have begun to be gradually implemented.

He just wanted to see it after he went to Liaocheng.

These three patients were declared seriously ill by the imperial doctor and expected to die soon.

In what form, he jumped up from the bed and jumped up and down.

This would not only slap Lu Qing in the face, but also the civil and military officials outside.

And in the palace, the imperial doctor who has been practicing medicine for decades.

Of course, the most important thing is the prince's face.

This was Lu Qing's own loss of face, and he couldn't blame Lu Yuan at all.

Originally it was just a small thing, if you didn’t want to go.

Shamelessly, Lu Yuan would not embarrass Lu Qing if he came to visit and talk.

Well now, things are getting bigger and bigger, and this is no longer a simple matter of losing face.

"Okay, let's talk about the drought in Liaocheng without further ado. Are you going to set off today?"

The prince seemed really anxious.

As soon as Lu Yuan agreed, he asked people to set off.

It is not difficult to tell from this that the drought problem in Liaocheng is indeed serious.

However, Lu Yuan doesn't know yet why the prince is so anxious.

"Okay, uncle, I'll go back and pack up before setting off."

Lu Yuan nodded slightly and replied calmly.
