Chapter 10: Hypocrisy
Xiao Hedu's face was calm, looking at the old emperor, he hooked his lips slightly.
"What, Brother Huang is angry?"
Such a presumptuous tone does not give him any face.
The old emperor was angry in his heart, but his face was completely calm: "I just can't understand that a city is exchanged for a woman I don't love." ”
Xiao Heju chuckled.
"Naturally, it's tortured to be around. ”
“!”
Such a cold sentence made the old emperor shudder, he had never been able to understand the thoughts of this ninth brother before, and now it is even worse.
"If I don't win this battle, Lu Qingxuan and Qin, Mucheng should also be Dongyao's, and now it's not bad. Xiao He got up and walked out of the hall.
The old emperor clenched his hands stiffly, and his palms under his sleeves were full of sweat.
The breath held in your heart and mouth can't be soothed after all, are you proud? See how long you can be proud!
......
Lu Li shuddered, she really couldn't stand Mrs. Lu's cold and warmth, she wanted to withdraw her hand, but thinking that it was the mother of this body, she endured it.
"Mother knows that you are coming back, so she specially asked Mama Wu to clean up your room, and she has already laid out the goose down brocade, but you are in the Jiuwang Mansion these days, and my mother can't go to see you. ”
Mrs. Lu led people to the backyard, which was a chic courtyard, but it felt a little bleak.
Lu Li stood at the rockery, always feeling panicked.
The sun seems to be fiercer inside the courtyard than outside.
Shining brightly on people's faces, Lu Li was a little uncomfortable, looking at Mrs. Lu chattering there in front of him and talking about the past.
Suddenly, he choked up and said.
"Your fourth sister used to love this lotus lotus cake the most, but now she can't eat it. Mrs. Lu was busy wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Now that you are back, your father and I are also very happy in our hearts, as long as you live a good life with the Nine Princes in the future." ”
"Mother......
Lu Li wanted to comfort him, but found that he couldn't call out this sentence.
It was clear that heresy had been discovered in the palace, but some memories were still vague, so she decided not to move.
"Come, eat more. ”
Lu Li stretched out his hand and grabbed the pastry in his hand, revealing a fragrance of lotus flowers, the taste was not bad, but it was a little sweet.
Lu Li took a few bites and put it down.
She caught a glimpse of the loss in Mrs. Lu's eyes, with a deep sense of alienation.
It's like seeing something annoying.
obviously doesn't love it, why do you pretend to be so affectionate?
"Fourth sister, she...... How did he die?" Lu Li took a deep breath, feeling uncomfortable, and couldn't help but ask, "Dad said she was sick?"
"Yes, it's smallpox. Mrs. Lu gritted her teeth, "At that time, you also had smallpox, and the burn made everyone confused, probably forgot, don't listen to those people outside talking nonsense, saying that you killed Mingxuan." ”
Smallpox.
Lu Li narrowed his eyes, thoughtful.
"The miracle doctor came, but you dragged his feet and killed him...... Just let Mingxuan disappear like that. ”
Mrs. Lu's tears flowed down, and she cried again.
Lu was full of contempt, and thought that the original owner had done something heinous, and it was not easy to survive in the hands of smallpox in this era.
Lu Mingxuan died, and all the fault went to the living person.
What's more, it is rumored that Lu Qingxuan took poison and poisoned Lu Mingxuan, the first talented woman who once went to Beijing.
Just because of jealousy.
Mrs. Lu was so grief-stricken that she fainted several times after crying, and Lu Li found an excuse to go back to rest.
As soon as she pushed the door open, she heard a tinkling sound, a string of wind chimes hanging from the window, and when she just entered, the wind instantly poured in and blew.
