Chapter 167: Captivity
After confirming that Lu Chengjing disappeared from his field of vision, Lin Qingfang slowly let go of the peach hairpin in his hand, and the hairpin fell to the ground with a crisp sound. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
But at this time, Lin Qing didn't seem to be able to hear any sound, not only was his brain blank, but his body was also soft as if he had been drained of strength.
Seeing that Ning Canglan's life was no longer threatened, Ouyang Feng and the others immediately chased in the direction where Lu Chengjing left, but everyone knew that the chances of catching Lu Chengjing again were so small that they were almost negligible.
"Xiaoqing, this hairpin is for you."
"Immersing a hairpin in venom can be a weapon to save your life, or it can be used to kill people."
"I remember, this hairpin is my birthday gift for you at the age of ten, but I didn't expect you to keep it."
……
Looking at Ning Canglan, who had a complicated expression and pursed his lips in front of him, Lin Qing's mind suddenly flashed to the words he had said to her in the past. At that time, he and she probably didn't expect that the chess piece he had carefully cultivated would betray him one day, and she would threaten him with the peach hairpin he gave him for another man!
Perhaps, this is the end of her and Ning Canglan.
"Xiaoqing, come back to the capital with me. Eun Gong promises that he will not force you to do things you don't like in the future. And you don't want to leave without saying a word, okay? Ning Canglan whispered, his tone soft, and he didn't seem to mind what happened before.
Lin Qing was stunned and didn't answer.
"Never leave me again." Ning Canglan stretched out his long arm and directly hugged Lin Qing, who had lost his reaction, into his arms.
Three days later, Lu Chengjing, who was answered by the guards and hurried back to the capital, gave his first order to find Lin Qing at all costs and bring him back to the capital unscathed.
But the guards who were ordered to go turned Jinzhou City upside down and didn't find Lin Qing, Lu Chengjing was anxious, but he couldn't abandon the country that his father had worked so hard to do, so he could only send more people to find it.
It was night, and Lu Chengjing's palace was brightly lit.
"Your Majesty, it's not too early, and it's not too late to see these folds tomorrow." The little eunuch really feels sorry for Lu Chengjing, and I am afraid that there are only a handful of diligent emperors like Lu Chengjing throughout the ages.
Lu Chengjing shook his head silently, but his sword eyebrows involuntarily wrinkled into the word 'Chuan'.
Many of the compromises were impeached by Lu Chengxiu, the king of Lingnan, saying that he owned private minerals and meddled in the taxation of the Great Xia Dynasty, intending to make money; secretly wooing courtiers with bad intentions; Secretly train soldiers and covet the throne......
These things had already been known to him through the huge intelligence network of the Floating Dust Pavilion long before Lu Chengjing succeeded to the throne. For Lu Chengxiu, he also knocked on the side many times and persuaded him with good words, but Lu Chengxiu not only did not restrain himself, but sent someone to assassinate him! What's even more infuriating is that he actually has dealings with the Guishan Kingdom that has been trying to encroach on Great Xia!
"The second emperor brother wants to replace me, and I have known this for a long time, as long as he does not go too far, I plan to take care of the brotherhood and not deal with him. But now that he has intensified his efforts and begun to collude with foreign countries, if I don't make a move, I am afraid that it will chill the courtiers of our court. ”
The little eunuch nodded like pounding garlic, "The emperor is shengming, the emperor is shengming!" ”
Since the emperor succeeded to the throne, the king of Lingnan and the king of Hexi have both submitted to the emperor on the surface, but they have made a lot of small moves in private, but the emperor is always unwilling to punish them, and even he, a little eunuch, can't help but be anxious for the emperor!
"I heard that the second emperor brother has always liked to watch singing and dancing, so I will give him a few singing and dancing girls, so that he can watch them in the mansion!" The implication is that Lu Chengxiu will be banned.
Lu Chengjing slowly exhaled a breath, looking a little tired.
In the end, he couldn't bear to attack Lu Chengxiu, just imprisoning Lu Chengxiu must be enough for the people of the Great Xia Dynasty to see his attitude clearly. Although he did not grow up in the palace, he knew that his father had high hopes for him, otherwise he would not have secretly taken care of everything for him, and even handed over the Lu family army to him, and had already asked his eldest brother to make an edict for Xu Shoude to keep on his behalf, and then he would inherit the throne when the time was right.
Originally, he had no way to accept the fact that he was the Seventh Prince, but the guards who had been secretly protecting him by his father told him the truth. His mother, Concubine Yue, was tortured by Shuguifei Baicao back then, and was finally made into a human being. And his eldest brother Lu Chengming was also killed by the assassins secretly arranged by Concubine Shu when he succeeded to the throne!
The monstrous hatred made him quickly change his character, and he also made up his mind to kill Concubine Shu to avenge his relatives! Now the revenge has finally been avenged, but he has no half of joy.
The next day, Lingnan Palace.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, Lingnan King Lu Chengxiu deliberately colluded with the envoys of the Guishan State, intended to rebel, leave his name as the king of Lingnan, remove all powers, and not leave the Lingnan palace without an edict Half a step, Qin this." The eunuch who came to announce the edict had a decent smile on his face, but he spoke indifferent words.
Lu Chengxiu's first reaction when he received the decree was disbelief, he jumped up from the ground without receiving the decree, and shouted angrily: "Impossible, how could he trap me?" How dare he! ”
"Does the King of Lingnan want to resist the decree?" The smile on the eunuch's face faded a little.
Lu Chengxiu couldn't care about any resistance at this time, he rushed to the eunuch and stretched out his hand to clasp his neck tightly!
"Dog minion, dare to falsely preach the holy decree, this king wants your dog's life!"
Ning Canglan, who was hidden in the shadows not far away, couldn't help but shake his head, this Lu Chengxiu was really too impulsive.
For so many years, he has been with Lu Chengxiu and wronged, pretending to surrender, but in fact, he is using Lu Chengxiu to contain Lu Chengxuan. But he didn't expect Lu Chengxiu to be caught by Lu Chengjing so quickly and end up in captivity. Now this chess piece is a waste.
No matter how angry, dissatisfied, and resisted Lu Chengxiu, he couldn't escape the fate of being imprisoned after all. The Shangguan army that he forcibly snatched from Shangguan Yunyang had already been taken back by Shangguan Yunyang's brother-in-law, Lu Chengxuan. And those courtiers who kept supporting him in the past were in a hurry to draw a line with him one after another when he was in a downturn!
People are cold, but that's it.
Lu Chengxiu, who was confined in the mansion, was angry with the people in the mansion all day except for throwing things, and Zhang Qiuli was the only one who could barely say a few words in front of him, as for his former henchmen Yu Feng and Zhang Miaosheng and others, they didn't know which direction they had gone.
has been married to Lu Chengxiu for several months, Zhang Qiuli can't deny that no matter how Lu Chengxiu treats others, he treats her sincerely! What's more, Lu Chengxiu will fall to such a point, and he has a little relationship with her, so she can't bear to watch Lu Chengxiu go down like this.
Zhang Qiuli carried a basket of hand-made food and walked into Lu Chengxiu's bedroom. (To be continued.) )
