Chapter 763 The Third Party

The black-painted flat-topped carriage drove out of the Dachang Princess' mansion smoothly and headed towards Lu's mansion.

The two men who were squatting by the side of the road and bargaining with the hawker looked at each other, then got up and left one after another.

An alley in the north of the city is full of cheap inns. These inns all have one characteristic, that is, they have enough rooms but are small enough, so they are the first choice for juggling troupes.

After the two men walked into the alley, they entered the third inn on the left. Several children were practicing basic skills such as handstand and walking rope under the supervision of their master.

Seeing the two people enter, someone told the woman in red, she went upstairs silently, pushed the innermost room away, and said calmly: "Come in."

This is the most spacious and best-furnished room in the entire inn, but it is still very simple, and the teapots and tea bowls on the table are only slightly neat.

The woman in red didn't dislike it either, she poured herself a cup of tea and said, "Talk."

The man whispered all about the situation just now, and when he talked about the battle between Chonghua and He Suoyi, he said timidly: "They are both masters, and they dare not get too close for fear of being discovered. All I know is that the white clothes seem to be lost. hand."

The woman in red fell into deep thought, and after a long time, said: "Before tomorrow, I want to know who is in white and what is the relationship with the emperor of Li Kingdom."

There was a look of embarrassment under her hands: "This..."

The woman in red glanced at them lightly: "Is it difficult?"

The man shrank his head: "It's not difficult, the subordinate will do it now."

The woman in red said: "Don't go to Dongling people, I don't want them to know that I'm here."

After the two men went out, the strong man who had been standing behind the woman in red stepped forward and bowed, and said in a deep voice, "Master, do you think Dongling and Li Kingdom can fight?"

The woman in red raised her long eyebrows: "Of course we can fight. This Dongfang Chonghua seems to be restless. He has already swallowed the two cities of Dongling, and detained the Emperor Ji of Dongling, trying to swallow the third city." The city, and also funded the fight between Li Yuan, the former prince of Dongling, and Li Dan, the emperor of Dongling, and now Dongling is full of chaos, and soon, he will be reaping the benefits."

The strong man said: "You can't just sit and watch Li Guo grow up."

The woman in red dipped her tea and drew a map on the table: "Look, Jingzhong, Dongling, and Liguo are separated by Tiebeiling and the road is difficult, but we are connected by water. Now Dongling and Liguo are not If this waterway is discovered, sooner or later they will also set their sights on us. It will be too late to make preparations at that time, it is better to mess them up now."

The strong man repeatedly said: "If this is done, it will not only explain to His Majesty, but also deter the kings."

The woman in red sighed: "It's too difficult for a woman to make a fact. If I can make this contribution, they won't dare to say anything. Now, let's try to get the man in white out first. He must be important."

"The subordinate is willing to go to the soup and fire for the lord." The strong man beat his chest resolutely, and went out of the room with the woman in red, and was quickly lost in the crowd.

In Lu Mansion, the pole-climbing scene is underway.

The three long poles were held by three strong men respectively, and the three children in colorful clothes dexterously held the poles and kept climbing up, trying to climb higher and faster than anyone else.

The pole was bent down and crumbling, and a child occasionally missed it, almost slipped, and then quickly grasped it, causing everyone to scream, those who ate melon seeds forgot to move their teeth and tongues, and those who spoke forgot what they said in the first half. The drinker poured water on himself.

Chonghua sneaked into the room where he was resting amidst screams, and quickly replaced the torn robe. After taking off the soft armor, he looked down at his chest.

There was a large bruise on the chest, which was where the umbrella bone shot by He Minoi was hit.

If he hadn't been on guard and prepared well, the umbrella bone would definitely penetrate his chest.

"Oh, Your Majesty, what's the matter?" Li Anren panicked.

Chonghua glanced at him expressionlessly, Li Anren immediately closed his mouth tightly like a clam shell, lowered his head and silently waited for Chonghua to change his clothes.

Chonghua dressed neatly, raised his chin lightly, Li Anren quickly opened the door, cleared his throat, coughed lowly, and the people guarding outside immediately passed on the news that "His Majesty the Emperor has risen".

When Chonghua came to the performance place again, the performance of climbing the pole and watch was over, and the next performance had not yet started, everyone laughed and stood up to greet each other.

Lu Taishi scrutinized his expression and behavior without showing any trace, and asked: "Your Majesty rests well? The old minister's place is too simple."

Chonghua covered his mouth and yawned lazily: "Not bad. What are you doing? Go ahead, don't disturb everyone's interest."

Lu Taishi didn't see anything, so he had to ask his servants to continue to serve him. Since someone passed on the news here, after Zhong Weiwei discussed with Duan Ren, he felt that he should leave, so he asked someone to ask Chonghua again.

Chonghua had finished his work and had nothing to miss, so he got up and said: "Since you are tired, then go back to the palace."

Everyone got up to see them off, Concubine Lu Taigui followed without hesitation, but Lu Chun ran to find Zhong Weiwei: "Can you talk to Your Majesty so that I can go back later."

Zhong Weiwei said: "It's normal to miss your relatives. If you want to stay, you can stay. Just go back before dark. I will tell His Majesty."

Lu Chun was very happy: "I remember your affection." He glanced at Concubine Lu Taigui and said, "Won't Auntie stay with grandma?"

Concubine Lu Taigui frowned: "Your Majesty has given us face, how can you not know what is good?"

Lu Chun showed a look of impatience: "You can leave as soon as you want, leave me alone, the real person in charge didn't say anything."

Concubine Lu Taigui said angrily: "You..."

Zhong Weiwei gave Xiaotang a wink, and Xiaotang stepped forward to persuade him: "Don't say a few words, it will affect the face of the palace and make His Majesty unhappy, and everyone will be unhappy."

Empress Dowager Lu threw Lu Chun away, followed closely behind Zhong Weiwei and Duan Ren, and said, "I'm used to her."

Zhong Weiwei ignored Concubine Lu, but gave Lu Chun a meaningful look.

Lu Chun smiled and waved at her: "Don't worry."

When Zhong Weiwei and others went out, Lu Chun immediately said to Mrs. Lu Taishi: "Where is my father? Let him come. I have something to say to him. I will wait for him in the house."

Grand Master Lu came soon, and said unhappily: "I heard that you always contradict your aunt in the palace?"

Lu Chun sneered and said, "Is it me who is against her, or is she trying to treat all of us as stepping stones for the King of Wu?"

Lu Taishi was a little embarrassed: "Don't talk nonsense!"
