65. Truth

Lu Chenghui took the teacup without raising his head, took a sip of tea, looked at the booklet in his hand slowly, and ignored Lu Wan's flattery, until the booklet in his hand was finished, he raised his eyes to look at Lu Wan, with three points of annoyance and seven points of helplessness on his face, frowned and said, "What did I tell you?" The Zhou family's affairs tell you not to interfere, you are still messing around! After a pause, he snorted with some hatred, "Even that kid from the Wei family is messing around with you!" ”

"Dad-" Lu Wan hurriedly showed a bright smile, grabbed her father's sleeve, and sincerely admitted her mistake, "Don't be angry, I didn't think about it." Glancing at Lu Chenghui's face, he sighed to himself, and muttered aggrievedly, "When I asked people to put that box, I didn't expect that someone would be stupid like that, and go directly to the door to steal it!" Originally, I thought that I could easily check the matter of Mangshan, but who knew that the people of the Zhou family had to go forward by themselves, so I couldn't stop it...... He himself is too greedy to make a move, and he can't blame us, I also asked Zheng Xinghe to prepare an antidote, and he didn't do it to the end, just to see if the people of the Zhou family are smart or not! ”

Lu Chenghui frowned and looked at his daughter who was disgusted with the Zhou family, his eyes sank, and he let Lu Wan finish talking, then sighed slightly, put down the teacup, motioned for Lu Wan to sit down, twisted his eyebrows and asked, "You tell me the truth, have you been asking people to check the affairs of Mangshan all these years?" ”

Lu Wan was stunned, the smile on his face gradually faded, sat down opposite Lu Chenghui, and glanced at his father, both father and daughter had a bit of stubbornness in their eyes, and it took a long time for Lu Wan to sigh in annoyance, retract his gaze, and nodded reluctantly: "Yes!" There are too many strange things about that case, I still remember the bloodstains on Mangshan back then-" Lu Wan paused for a moment, closed his eyes and took a slight breath, with three points of stubbornness and seven points in his tone Ling Ran, "I can still remember that scene, I don't worry if I don't find it out!" There is a confession from the group of rogues on Mangshan Mountain, I have seen it all, a group of bandits and robbers who bully the weak and are afraid of the hard, how dare they kidnap the family members of the prefect of one side? What's more, it's all gone! ”

Lu Chenghui was stunned for a moment, a trace of chagrin and self-blame flashed in his eyes very quickly, his eyes looked at his daughter gently and lovingly, but the bottom of his heart turned up a stormy wave, the matter of Mangshan was a thorn in his heart, he kept silent in front of his daughter, she was still young back then, and she was so frightened that she lost her soul, so it was easy to gradually turn around, he thought that his daughter didn't remember what happened back then, who knew that this girl had been quietly checking people for so many years? If he hadn't returned to Beijing this year, maybe he would still be kept in the dark! But what is the character of his own daughter, how can he, a father, not know? This girl is lively and bold, if she really wants to hide it from him, she will definitely not show her flaws at this time. Now let him know, most of them have something to ask him!

But there is no room for negotiation about the affairs on Mangshan! He would never let this girl let her temperament come!

"I'm not old yet! I know what to do! You withdraw everyone! Lu Chenghui stared at Lu Wan with a calm face and a stern expression, his tone was rare and stern and unquestionable, "Let that kid from the Wei family also withdraw people!" It's nonsense! ”

Lu Wan looked at her father in amazement, and was a little stunned by Lu Chenghui's sudden sternness, and it took a long time for Lu Chenghui to come back to her senses in Lu Chenghui's stern gaze, her mind turned very quickly, and she frowned and looked at her father, the father and daughter had big eyes and small eyes, and they didn't make a sound for a while.

"Dad found out who is behind the scenes?" Lu Wan took a breath gently, retracted her gaze, poured a cup of tea, took a sip slowly, calmed the churning in her heart, and didn't look at Lu Chenghui. Her father has always been conniving at her, and she has never been so harshly disciplined by her own father no matter how out of line, unless her "nonsense" will endanger the Lu family, or herself, her father can order her so unquestionably!

Although his father is not deeply rooted in the court, he can be regarded as a saint and a flourishing person, what kind of person can make his father not even let him check?

The answer is self-evident!

Lu Wan's heartbeat skipped suddenly, she exhaled slowly, put down the teacup, looked up at her father, frowned and asked, "Do the people in Pingnan Wangfu know about this matter?" ”

The surprise in Lu Chenghui's eyes didn't have time to hide it, but he was stunned in front of his daughter for the first time, and his face was curled in Lu Wan's calm and stubborn gaze, his heart was surging, and he didn't answer with a calm face. This girl is too smart, he just says a word, she can see the most essential place, he still underestimates this girl...... In the past few years, he has not been in the capital, and the impression of the cute little girl has grown up in a blink of an eye, and even he, who is a father, will look away!

Lu Wan took in the expression on her father's face, frowned and was silent for a moment, seeing that her father didn't speak, he only stared at himself with complicated eyes, and his heart fell down again, settled down, and began to analyze himself: "Wei Ji must not know, he has shown me everything in his hand, and he can only say that there are strange and suspicious people, but there is no definite evidence." He is an outsider, he doesn't know the inside story, and even if he finds something, he can only be suspicious! But the king of Pingnan is different, the Pingnan Wangfu covers the sky with one hand in the south, and Mangshan is connected to the land, so the case of the earth involves the Shen family, and it is impossible for the people of the Pingnan Wangfu not to investigate! As long as you have the heart, you will definitely be able to find out the clues! But since Prince Wei personally talked to you about the family affairs of the two families, he must not have taken this matter to heart, even if he knew that it was strange, he must have the confidence to deal with the people behind him. So—"

Lu Wan stopped his voice and stared at his father motionlessly, his voice was extremely soft but very determined: "The person who shot back then is very likely to be a royal person, but it shouldn't be a saint!" My grandfather is gone, and even if the saint has a mustard in his heart, he doesn't need to kill his mother! ”

Lu Chenghui's heart was shocked and stunned for a while, the hand holding the teacup was a little stiff, the love in his eyes was surging, and he looked at his daughter carefully for the first time, as if he didn't know this girl, he closed his eyes for a long time and took a slow breath, and when he opened his eyes again, there was no abnormality on his face, and his tone was three points stern and seven points helpless: "You girl is simply lawless!" This kind of thing can be said casually? Listen, it's best to keep these words in your stomach! Your dad and I are not old and confused, so I don't need you to worry about these things! ”

Without waiting for Lu Wan to open his mouth to refute, he commanded with a heavy face: "Your relationship with that kid from the Wei family has also been decided." I don't think that kid is very angry, I know that you are messing around! That kid is a prince of the world, don't send him all the time! But all men who have the ability have arrogance, and some things have to be stopped in moderation! Okay, you go back, and follow your second aunt to prepare the dowry when you have time! There's your dad there, don't make a mess with it! ”

Lu Wan opened her mouth, looking at her father's unusual sternness and unquestionableness, and finally swallowed back when the words came to her mouth. If the matter of Mangshan involves the royal family, it is indeed not easy to sort out, I am afraid that it will also involve the imperial court, and it is expected that her father will not let her interfere.

Thinking about it, Lu Wan had to sigh, nodded reluctantly, got up and said goodbye to Lu Chenghui and exited the study, thinking about countermeasures very quickly while walking towards Wangmei Courtyard, and the fingers in his sleeves clenched and released unconsciously.

If the matter really involves the royal family, it is impossible for the person in the palace not to notice it at all, but there has been no movement at all over the years, and it can only be said that someone is turning a blind eye. The Shen family rose too fast back then, and its demise was also caught off guard, and the origin of his grandfather was so strange, any emperor could not be completely assured if he was afraid that if someone was willing to give up his old feelings and kill him, maybe it would be just like that person's wish?

It is a natural thing for the cunning rabbit to die and cook the lackey, after the grandfather leaves, her mother is the only direct blood relative of the old man who remains in the world, for the superiors, all the mysteries of the Shen family are either revealed or it is best to be buried in the ground forever, after all, things that are too abnormal are outliers that may affect the peace of the dynasty, not to mention the rumored treasures that are rich and rival the country?

The more Lu Wan thought about it, the farther she felt, but she felt that the thoughts in her head were all wrapped into a ball, and she couldn't solve it. The most important thing is actually what happened to my grandfather back then, but in addition to the old people of the Shen family for decades, the only thing that knows most is probably my own father! But it was clear that her own father would not tell her, and she could only guess with the only vague clues! But one thing is for sure, the people behind the scenes don't seem to plan to do it again, otherwise her father wouldn't have put her in the capital to take office!

Walking back to Wangmei Courtyard in a trance, Yumo and Lu Zhi hurriedly greeted him, looked at Lu Wan worriedly, and asked while walking inside, "Is the girl still having lunch in the courtyard today?" ”

Lu Wan was stunned for a moment when asked, slowly withdrew her thoughts, nodded absentmindedly, walked into the house, thought about it, and was still a little messy in her heart, turned around again, and asked Chen Ping to come in.

"When will your grandfather leave?"

Chen Ping was stunned for a moment, then reacted suddenly, and hurriedly responded: "Back to the girl's words, the last time I said was that I left for Yuedi on the tenth day of the first month of February. ”

Lu Wan nodded, pondered for a moment, and then motioned to Chen Ping: "Let's take back the boxes in the courtyard." You pass by the way to pass a message to your master for me, just say that I want to meet him, and ask him when he is free to go to Kaiyuan Temple. ”

Chen Ping blinked his eyes and nodded dryly: "Yes!" I'll go! Excited for a while, and didn't ask why Lu Wan changed her mind, she jumped out of the courtyard wall at a moment's notice, but in the blink of an eye, the kung fu man was far away.

In less than half an hour, Chen Ping turned back again, and his eyebrows flew and he replied to Lu Wan: "Girl, the master said that he is free every day, when the girl wants to go to Kaiyuan Temple, the master will come to pick up the girl." ”

Lu Wan was still a little worried, but when she caught a glimpse of Chen Ping's excited face, listening to Wei Ping's unreliable reply, the depression in her heart dissipated for no reason, and after thinking about it, she asked Chen Ping to go back to Wei Ping's words.
