Lu Zhi was slightly surprised when she heard this: "Big brother, didn't you mean ......"

"I did say that Emperor Zhengde won't survive this winter. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" Xie Qing said quietly: "But he is not getting better now, but burning his remaining life." ”

Hearing this, Lu Zhi was shocked: "How can you say this?"

Xie Qingchang sighed: "I have been with him for decades, and I actually admire him very much when I look at his life. For the general, take the lead and destroy the direction; for the king, know how to make good use of people, and be politically clear. If he hadn't been confused for a while, he would have been almost a saint. It's a pity that one wrong step, one wrong step. ”

Lu Zhi also sighed, no one can be a sage, but some mistakes can be made up, and some mistakes are destined to pay for it.

Just like her father, Lu Yihang.

Xie Qing said to Lu Zhi: "Emperor Zhengde originally had nearly two months to live, but he didn't want to spend it in a sick body, so he asked me for the medicine of the tiger and wolf, which can incinerate the essence and blood in the body, so that the dying person is like an ordinary person, but as soon as the effect of the medicine passes, he will die immediately." ”

"This medicine was only asked for by His Majesty from his eldest brother after my father's accident?"

"It's not. Xie Qing said lightly: "When he just fell ill this time, he knew that he couldn't survive this winter, so he asked me for it." It's just because of Queen Xiao's words that he hasn't used it. ”

Hearing this, Lu Zhi lowered her head: "In this way, it's because of my father and because of me." ”

Xie Qing glanced at her and didn't say anything to comfort her, although most of the reasons for making such a decision were because of the pride of Emperor Zhengde himself, who could deny that there was no reason for Lu Zhi and Lu Yihang.

There was silence in the room for a while, and after a long time, Lu Zhi asked in a low voice, "How long does Your Majesty have left?"

"Not necessarily. Xie Qing frowned and said: "If the effect of this medicine is on ordinary people, it can last for ten days, but he is not very human, and there is no shortage of palace medicine, it should be able to drag on for a few more days, as for the specific days, it is unknown." ”

After speaking, he looked at Lu Zhi and said: "Your father's case is not as difficult as you think, after all, many years have passed, the physical evidence is long gone, and now what is left is only the woman's words, as long as your father does not admit his guilt, no matter how much the woman speaks, she will not be able to truly convict your father." ”

Lu Zhi sighed: "I understand what the eldest brother said, even if my father's crime is not established, his reputation is ruined, and everyone in the Lu family will be poked in the backbone from now on." Although I have already made plans, I still have some resentment in my heart when this day comes. ”

Xie Qing nodded: "I can understand your feelings, this is the matter, whether it is the crown princess or the princess and concubine, even if you have the identity of the daughter of destiny, these two positions have nothing to do with you." Having said that, if someone in the dark uses some means to force your father to confess, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as being poked in the back. ”

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that there must be someone behind the woman's command, and that commander has spent so much effort, how could he spare Young Master Lu so easily, and fall short like this?

Lu Zhi frowned and suddenly said: "Big brother, how did a woman come to the capital alone after escaping from the bandits, and so coincidentally recognized my father......?

Xie Qing immediately answered when he heard this: "Do you suspect that from the beginning, someone had ulterior motives to find this woman and send this woman to the capital?"

Lu Zhi nodded slowly: "This person must hold the handle of that woman, and his identity and power are at least equal to my father's, otherwise, that woman will not be able to turn to her father for help, and be at the mercy of others." ”

Hearing this, Xie Qing glanced at Lu Zhi: "Actually, the biggest suspect is Duan Chen, first of all, the bandits in Jiangnan were suppressed by him, it was he who first intersected with the woman, secondly, he had a motive, and then, he also conformed to your conjecture about the identity of the person behind it." It's just that...... From what I know of him, he is not such an unscrupulous person. ”

Lu Zhi smiled bitterly: "I don't know, so I went to ask Song Cheng, if he admits it, I will also die." ”

"What if he doesn't admit it?"

Lu Zhi blinked, as if she hadn't thought about this problem, and was silent for a moment before looking at Xie Qingdao: "If he doesn't admit it, then I will ask him to stand by and watch, and don't fall into the ground." ”

"I'm such a villain in your heart?"

Song Cheng's voice came from outside, Lu Zhi looked at Xie Qing in surprise, only to see Xie Qing shrug his shoulders: "I thought the letter was too slow, so I asked Yan Yi to invite someone." ”

"What do you mean please?"

The door was pushed open, Song Cheng walked in angrily, sat straight to the table, looked at Lu Zhi and said angrily: "I was drinking and having fun with a group of gentlemen, Yan Yi was good, first politely invited me out, but as soon as I came out, he changed his face and carried me straight to throw me outside!"

Xie Qing snorted coldly: "More than a dozen people in the Yan group died in your hands, and it was not easy for him to kill you without a sword." ”

"You can't say that. Song Cheng argued: "More than a dozen people died in the Yan group, but dozens of people died here, and the effort spent on cultivating them is not lower than that of the Yan group. ”

"I'm afraid that Yan Yi can't afford to be your friend. Lu Zhi glanced at him lightly: "Time is pressing, I want to ask you ......"

"Ask me if that woman was arranged by the prince, or was she instructed to arrange it?" Song Cheng interrupted Lu Zhi's words, sighed and shook his head: "If the prince knows, you will doubt him like this, you will be sad." ”

Lu Zhi snorted lightly, looked directly at him, and asked unceremoniously: "Do you think you blame me for causing this situation?"

Seeing the fierceness in her eyes, Song Cheng was stunned, and put away the unjust look on his face: "That woman has nothing to do with the prince from beginning to end, you should think about it, if the prince hadn't taken the initiative to give so many dowries, the woman would have been restless." ”

Lu Zhi actually believed Song Cheng's words, but apart from Song Cheng and Duan Chen, she really couldn't think of anyone else: "If you didn't do it, I would be half down-to-earth, but besides you, who else would have such scheming and deliberately chose such a time?"

Song Cheng frowned and said: "This matter is very strange, after the prince knew about the existence of the woman, he inquired about her origin, but found that she seemed to have really stumbled into the capital by mistake and met Young Master Lu, but at that time, the woman did not move, so naturally she would not show her feet, and now that she has moved, the person behind her will definitely contact her." ”

Speaking of this, he changed his words, looked at Lu Zhi and said with a smile: "I will find out the person behind you for you and relieve you of today's siege, how do you thank me?"
