Lu Zhi looked at the smile on Song Cheng's face for a while, and then said lightly: "Song Gongzi may have misunderstood." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoZhi'er never expected Childe to help, let alone what to do to get Childe's help. ”

As I said before, as long as Gongzi does not fall into the well, Zhi'er will be grateful. Of course, if Gongzi insists on pushing Zhi'er into fire and water, Zhi'er is helpless. ”

Hearing this, the smile on Song Cheng's face disappeared in an instant, and even Xie Qing on the side showed a slight look of surprise.

Her words not only drew a clear line with Song Cheng, she simply pushed Song Cheng to the opposite side of her, treating him as an opponent who would stumble on each other, or even an enemy who hated each other.

Song Cheng paused for a moment, and smiled a little bitterly: "Three years of Jiangnan care, just because of a mere deception, is it worth offsetting?"

Lu Zhi shook her head: "What I remember in my heart is Song Cheng who was in Gusu back then, not Song Gongzi in front of me. ”

Song Cheng looked at her silently, and got up after a moment of silence: "Okay, I won't interfere in this matter anymore, no matter what the outcome is, it's not a bad thing for us." ”

After that, he came to the door and opened the door, stopped slightly, turned to look at Lu Zhi and said, "Do you know why the prince has not contacted you for a long time? Because he was assassinated in the Western Regions, he was seriously injured, and he was in a coma for five days before he woke up. He was wounded in his right arm and could not carry a pen, so he did not write to you because you were worried. ”

After Song Cheng finished speaking, he looked at her deeply, turned around and walked out of the house, and the slender figure was gradually moving away outside the courtyard.

Lu Zhi watched him leave, and it wasn't until his figure disappeared outside the courtyard that he withdrew his gaze and looked at Xie Qingdao: "When was he assassinated?"

Xie Qing lowered his eyes slightly: "A month ago." ”

A month ago, that is to say, Duan Chen was assassinated and unconscious, and only then did Song Cheng trick her into the villa.

At that time, Duan Chen had just woken up, and he couldn't give instructions to Song Cheng at all, and he couldn't know Song Cheng's actions at all.

Lu Zhi lowered his eyes: "His martial arts are extremely high, although I don't know martial arts, but I can also see that his martial arts are above Wuyi, who has such great ability to seriously injure him, or is it in the hinterland of the Western Regions?"

Xie Qing frowned when he heard this: "Are you suspicious of me?"

"Naturally not. ”

Seeing that he was slightly angry, Lu Zhi hurriedly explained: "I know that the eldest brother is a person, and the eldest brother has always been by my side, how can there be a doppelganger?

Hearing this, Xie Qing glared suddenly: "Do you mean to say that this assassination was carried out by the Shizi faction's own people?

Lu Zhi shook her head and said in a faint voice: "I didn't say anything, and I didn't ask anything, I was just curious about who else could recreate the son of the world besides the eldest brother." Right now, I'm worried about myself. ”

Xie Qing glanced at her and sighed lightly: "What are you going to do?"

Lu Zhi thought for a while and said: "It stands to reason that it is almost impossible for a woman to slander the second-class member of the dynasty, even if she has nobles behind her to help, at most it will ruin the reputation of the Lu Mansion." And this is not irretrievable. ”

"But my two older brothers and I agreed that my father really had to pay for what he had done, so I wanted to ask my eldest brother for two favors. ”

Xie Qing immediately responded: "You say." ”

Lu Zhi sighed: "As soon as I ask the eldest brother to inform His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of my attitude, and persuade His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to stand by and watch." Second, please take good care of my father, don't let him be bewitched, or coerced and lured to confess the crime, he is my father after all, and it is enough to ruin his career and the most cherished reputation. ”

Xie Qing nodded: "It's not difficult on the prince's side, I can't protect your father in person, but I will let Yan Yi protect it secretly, you can rest assured." ”

At this point he paused: "If you really don't want to find out who the woman is, who is the one who is so instigated, and you really don't want to know who is so against you?"

"Naturally, I want to know. Lu Zhi sighed: "Could it be that I already have doubts in my heart, but this is too unbelievable, it would be great if the eldest brother could find the clues, if not." ”

Xie Qing didn't ask who she suspected, just nodded in response to her instructions, and then disappeared in place.

On the second day, Emperor Zhengde tried the case in person in front of hundreds of civil and military officials in the Qianqing Palace.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were shocked when they saw Emperor Zhengde as an ordinary person, and only a few henchmen who knew the inside story were heartbroken when they looked at Emperor Zhengde's appearance.

The woman accused Young Master Lu in court, saying that in order to join the bandits and survive, he not only gave his sister to the leader of the bandits, but also, in order to prove that he had no second thoughts, he even killed his biological parents who raised him with his own hands.

And the best evidence of that woman is her own face, a face with facial features that are not much different from those of Young Master Lu!

Young Master Lu naturally didn't admit it, saying that the woman slandered herself.

The woman sneered when she heard this: "If Lord Lu is not weak-hearted, why do you want to hide me in the other garden and meet any of my requests?"

Young Master Lu, who asked after a few words, was speechless, he couldn't say that he had never raised her, because he would know about it after a little investigation.

He was stunned for a while, and then said, "I just saw that your appearance was quite similar to my dead sister, so I couldn't bear you to wander outside." ”

This reason is not impossible, but the silence in front of him has been too long, and everyone has already judged in their hearts.

The woman sneered when she heard this, saying that Young Master Lu was still sincere and meaningful, and just because she looked similar, he was even willing to sell his daughter's dowry, just to satisfy her greed.

With his previous experience, Young Master Lu only bit his deep affection one by one, and pinned his thoughts on the deceased sister on the woman.

The two of them went back and forth like this, arguing for a long time, until everyone was dizzy.

Of course, this quarrel also made everyone understand a little bit in their hearts, and they only had contempt for Young Master Lu.

Taking 10,000 steps back, even if this woman is crazy and has a good way to slander Young Master Lu, but just because he is a second-class member and a dignified prince and young master, he actually sold his daughter's dowry privately, and everyone looked down on him again.

Emperor Zhengde looked at the ugliness of Young Master Lu's argument in the hall, and his heart was extremely disgusted, if he hadn't had another plan, he would have been convicted on the spot, how could he waste time here.

When the woman and Young Master Lu were about to quarrel, Emperor Zhengde patted the dragon chair and said, "What you two say and hear is reasonable, but there is no evidence. ”

He looked at the woman and said, "Do you know that the civil prosecutor needs to be punished? I think that you can be exempted from the punishment when you are old, but if you can't produce any more evidence, don't blame me for slandering the important officials of the court! This is the end of today, and the trial will be held tomorrow!"
