But even if it was what Dye Zhi thought, Lu Yun didn't come to the Cold Secluded Palace for another reason. In the eyes of outsiders, the master of the Cold Shadow Palace doesn't want to turn over.

was beaten into the cold palace and wanted to come back, it's really a fool's dream. Even if the emperor still has affection for Ren Qingqing, as long as the queen mother is there, and there is still "the queen is a demon" in the court, Ren Qingqing will not want to return to Luanjiao Palace. There is also that Lu Yun, but she doesn't have a few good days.

Now it seems that Du Youlan can indeed sit back and relax.

Leaving aside the conspiracy of Chaoxiang Palace, a major event also happened outside the palace.

The sky was dark and starless, and although the palm lamp was bright, it could not shine farther, and there was not even a human figure visible a few meters away. Just tonight, a figure flashed into the Lu Mansion. After a while, there were shouts of fighting in the Lu Mansion.

The assassin broke into the Lu Mansion, and he was still fighting with Prime Minister Lu in Prime Minister Lu's study. By the time the people in the palace arrived, Prime Minister Lu had already been injured, and there were several cuts on his arms and shoulders. The battle between the two was inseparable, and just when the people didn't know whether to enter the house or stay outside, they saw an assassin dressed in black flying away from the sword stabbed by Prime Minister Lu, and turned around and stabbed the sword into Prime Minister Lu's throat.

said that it was too late, but then it was fast, only to see a person flying over, and the sword was thrown out to block in front of Prime Minister Lu, and resisted the sword stretched out by the assassin. Then, a stumbling step stepped in front of Prime Minister Lu Cheng to fight the assassin, while Prime Minister Du Cheng was helped out of the study by the subordinates who came in from behind and moved to a safe place.

The Assassin was a martial artist, and the man began to feel defeated. Fortunately, the government soldiers soon arrived from all over the palace and surrounded the Assassins.

Seeing this, the assassin stopped his move and jerked back, trying to escape. When the soldiers saw the Assassin escape from the study, they immediately surrounded him and trapped him. However, the assassin managed to escape from the land mansion in a few jumps.

The man walked out of the study, and everyone saw that it was Hu Guangwei.

The government soldiers were about to chase after him, but Hu Guangwei shouted: "Poor Kou Mo chase!"

After listening to the words, the soldiers stood in place and waited for the words of the prime minister. Seeing this, Prime Minister Lu said: Okay. Don't chase it.

It seems that the government soldiers who seem to be in command stepped forward and knelt on the ground to plead guilty: It is too late to be humble, please punish the prime minister!

Prime Minister Lu shook his head and said: What happened tonight is not something you can stop, I don't blame you. It's just that the guards will be strengthened in the future.

Fu Bingdao: Yes!

The soldiers were ordered to disperse to inspect the rest of the palace. The subordinates outside the study were dismissed by the housekeeper, and then ordered someone to ask the doctor to come over the house overnight to see Prime Minister Lu's injuries.

At this time, there were only two people left, Prime Minister Lu and Hu Guangwei, and a few servants who were waiting.

Hu Guangwei stepped forward and saluted: The last general has seen the prime minister!

Prime Minister Lu said: Let's go into the house.

As he spoke, the man had gone forward. Hu Guangwei followed into the study.

After Prime Minister Lu Cheng sent all his subordinates away, he looked at Hu Guangwei, who was sitting on the right side, and asked: At this time, General Hu should be in the border place of Beicheng, right?

Hu Guangwei had long known that he would ask such a question, so he immediately replied: According to the words of the prime minister, the general should indeed be at the border at this time. But on the way, I got some news, and the last general came back again.

Prime Minister Lu frowned and asked: What is the news?

Hu Guangwei said: A letter. When we were on the march, an arrow flew from the sky and hit the pole of a flag, and when we turned back to see who had shot the arrow, there was no one in sight. And the letter was tied to the arrow.

After listening to it, Prime Minister Lu then asked: What did the letter say?

Hu Guangwei replied: A few words were written in the letter, "If the Lu Mansion is in trouble, return to rescue as soon as possible." After reading the letter, I was worried that something would happen to the Lu Mansion, so I asked me to come back and see the situation. I didn't expect that to happen.

Prime Minister Du Cheng was silent in contemplation. After a while, he said: You are marshals and generals who were ordered to go on the expedition and were appointed by the emperor's decree, so no matter what happens, you can't leave the army. Leaving without permission will be punished by military law.

Seeing Prime Minister Du's serious face, Hu Guangwei had already guessed that he would say this, but fortunately he was prepared, so he said: Prime Minister don't worry. Before I returned, I was ordered to hurry back and report the matter to the emperor first, and before I came here, I had already been to the palace.

Prime Minister Du Cheng nodded and put his mind at ease.

He turned away and asked, "What do you think about the matter of faith?"

Hu Guangwei said: Lu Shui and I both think that the person who sent the letter must know something. After tonight's events, you can be sure that someone wants to assassinate you, Prime Minister, and the person who sent the letter may be the person next to that person.

Prime Minister Du Cheng nodded and said: That's right, what is certain is that someone wants to kill me.

After speaking, no one answered, and both of them were thoughtful.

After a while, Hu Guangwei seemed to think of something and asked: Prime Minister, who do you think it will be?

Prime Minister Lu looked at him and said: This kind of thing can't be guessed.

But Hu Guangwei didn't give up, and then asked: Does the prime minister think it will be Du Fu?

Lu Cheng didn't raise his head and said: I don't know.

Seeing this, Hu Guangwei couldn't say anything. Biandao: This assassination attempt was unsuccessful, and he may find an opportunity to attack it in the future. Before finding out who is behind the scenes, I hope the prime minister will pay more attention just in case.

Prime Minister Lu nodded and said: I know. Thanks to you tonight, the assassin did not succeed, and Lu thanked him here.

As he spoke, the man got up from his chair and was about to make a bow.

Hu Guangwei hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out his hand to stop him, and said: The prime minister doesn't have to be polite.

Prime Minister Lu Cheng smiled and said: There will be nothing more tonight, and the hour is not early, so you should go back and rest early.

Hu Guangwei nodded and said: Yes.

After Hu Guangwei left, Prime Minister Lu Cheng sat alone in the study and echoed Hu Guangwei's words. The sentence "Who do you think it will be?", Prime Minister Lu Cheng is not without a candidate in his heart, but he is in the middle of the court, and it is inevitable that some people will not be used to it, even if that person uses insidious tricks to make him die, Prime Minister Lu Cheng does not want to disturb the court because of his own body.

The Assassins escaped from the Land Mansion and headed north. From time to time, he came to a mansion and jumped into the courtyard lightly.

It was pitch black inside.

The assassin walked into the house, and after not walking a few steps, he knelt down and said, "Please condemn the master."

In the shadows, a voice came out: You are not his opponent?

The Assassin replied: No. Someone came to his rescue at a critical moment.

A word came from the darkness: Alright, go back.

Hearing this, the Assassin slowly raised his head and looked ahead. Although I didn't see a human figure, I felt a murderous aura. The Assassin replied, "Yes."

When you're done, get up and leave.

The dark clouds dispersed, and the moonlight began to shine through the window into the house. The darkness receded, and there was a set of chairs in front of the house, and on one of them sat a person.

Suddenly, I heard the man whisper: Qingqing, this favor, you have to repay me well. My brother will remember it.
