Liu came to the study where his husband Xu Zhi was, and after entering the door, he saw Xu Zhi writing a letter with a pen, and his expression was quite solemn, as if he was worried about something. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Master, but what happened in the court, what are you writing about?" After carrying the teapot from the servant woman's hand and pouring a cup of tea, Liu personally walked to Xu Zhi's side with the tea, with a gentle smile on his face.

But when her gaze swept to the letter written by Xu Zhi, her face couldn't help but change slightly, and she said in shock: "This is...... Playing the twists and turns of Lord Lu? ”

Xu Zhi is now appointed as the imperial history of the capital of the Imperial Procuratorate, and his duty is to correct the impeachment of hundreds of officials, identify wrongs, supervise all provinces, and correct discipline for the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven.

But this letter shocked Lu Bing's twists and turns still made the Liu family startled, Lu Bing is the only person who ranks among the three princes and three orphans since the Dawei Dynasty and is in charge of the Jinyi Guard and the Governor of the Left Army at the same time, there are hot forces in the court, and he is the person the emperor believes in the most, it can be said that he is the emperor's eyes and ears, he has never been the only one who has gone up to monitor the officials for the emperor to arrest the ministers, and no one has dared to impeach him.

"Master, but because of Concubine Xiang's affair, Long Yan was displeased, so you ......" Liu asked with some concern, "You can see that the concubine is born, this matter can be big or small, if this is impeached, wouldn't the master offend Lord Lu?" ”

Xu Zhi looked at Liu, his eyes flickered, and he said with a somewhat unhappy solemn expression: "What do you know, although this matter is the disappearance of Concubine Xiang, it has attracted a lot of rumors, and some people even discuss in private, Lord Lu and Concubine Xiang have a private affair, because they were discovered, so they made such a scene to hide people's eyes and ears......"

When Liu Shi heard this, his face turned pale, and he couldn't help but lose his voice: "What? Who came out of this? Wouldn't such rumors put Lord Lu to death! ”

Xu Zhi also said coldly: "Yes, no matter whether this matter is true or not, there are such rumors, it can make Lu Bing lose trust in the emperor's heart, and now the emperor just deprived him of the position of the third prince and ordered him to be grounded at home, no one can say for sure what will happen in the future, now the officials of the DPRK and China, but I am not the only one writing this letter." ”

As soon as Xu Zhi finished speaking, Liu's heart beat a drum, and he asked again: "What about the eldest brother and the third brother, did they write this letter?" ”

As soon as Liu asked, Xu Zhi put down the wolf in his hand, and there was a look of doubt in his eyes.

"This is also strange, since Mo Xuan clashed with Jinyiwei on Xuanwu Street that day, the third brother has been reluctant every day, he has asked Guozixue for three days to rest, and he has not been to the court!" He said.

When the Liu family heard this, they also felt strange and said: "Master, this matter of Mo Xuan's blocking of Jinyiwei has been widely spread in the capital, saying that he has quarreled with the eldest son of the Lu family for the young lady of the Yang family, that is, the fiancée set by Shu Xuan, but why does the concubine think that this matter is very strange?" Mo Xuan, when did he make a bad fuss, but just after Concubine Xiang disappeared, Lord Lu took Guangning Bo Han Mo ......"

Before Liu finished speaking, Xu Zhi's eyes also flashed with suspicion, he looked at Liu, and said suspiciously: "Yes, this incident happened after Concubine Xiang's disappearance, so I believe that the emperor is also very suspicious of this matter, in fact...... I still think that the third brother seems to have something to hide from us, and Shu Xuan ......" At this point, Xu Zhi's eyes condensed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "This child has been too surprising recently, why does he have to marry at this time?" And do you have to choose this niece of the Yang family? ”

As soon as she mentioned the niece of the Yang family, Liu felt as if she had been beaten hard, and she said in a low voice: "Master, this family affair set by Shu Xuan is not good for us!" Yang Aling, this girl is not only articulate, beautiful and intelligent, but she is also quite proficient in medical skills, disguise techniques, and hidden skills are not small, coupled with the power of her Yang family, if Shu Xuan marries the Yang family, it is not ......"

Xu Zhi snorted coldly and interrupted: "Although the Yang family is a first-class national mansion, but in the end, it is the home of military generals, I value literature and light martial arts, and besides, the emperor has never really trusted the Yang family, and now the emperor has taken Yang Mingyu's military power in Nanjing, so the Yang family is not worried at all!" ”

"As for the girl you said, she's just a girl, how much more waves can she make, and when she gets married, I still want to teach you about the affairs of the back house?"

In the eyes of men, the things in the back house are all trivial, Xu Zhiman doesn't care, but Liu's heart is still a little drumming, she thought for a while, looked at the piece of music written by Xu Zhi, and finally pouted her lips, and asked with some embarrassment: "Master, the concubine thinks it's better not to present this trick to Lord Lu, people say that it's easy to put the icing on the cake, but it's difficult to send charcoal in the snow, why don't we take this opportunity to send a favor to Lord Lu, maybe Lord Lu will become our friend in the future?" ”

"And our daughter Scarlet Smoke is dead-eyed, she is determined not to marry Lu Yanzhao, and I, the mother, can't force her to death, why don't we help Lord Lu this time, and at the same time give Scarlet Yan's family affairs, what do you think?"

mentioned his daughter who was over twenty years old and had not yet married, Xu Zhi also felt that his face was dull and frowned.

"Scarlet Smoke, it's not like you haven't disciplined that kid well!" He scolded, barely suppressed his anger, and asked, "How easy is it to help Lord Lu at this time?" ”

Xu Zhi shook her head unhappily, the corners of Liu's lips hooked, revealing a very gentle and meaningful smile, she put her lips to Xu Zhi's ear, and said: "Master, there is a way to give birth to concubines...... After saying a few words in a very low voice, she smiled confidently, "Master, don't worry, I will let Qing Xuan do this matter, there is a person around him who also understands the disguise technique, and he can really change people's faces...... He'll be able to do it! ”

Hearing Liu say this, Xu Zhi's face also showed a smile of surprise.

*****

In the Chaoyang Palace, the expression on the eldest princess's face was not so pleasant, after holding back her anger for a day in the Anguo Mansion, as soon as she returned to her bedroom, she lifted the porcelain teapots on the table.

Mother Qin hurriedly smiled and ordered someone to clean up the ground that was broken by the slag, and then gently kneaded and pounded it on the eldest princess's back.

"Eldest princess, don't be angry, don't be angry, isn't she just a little girl? In the Anguo Mansion, what if you don't dare to take her? After she enters our Wei State Mansion, she will do her filial piety in front of you as a daughter-in-law, and when the time comes, she will not let you knead and flatten her, so that she can't survive or die! ”

Before Mother Qin's words fell, the eldest princess scolded: "Get out!" ”

"Yes, yes, slave get out of here!" Mother Qin replied with a smile on her face, and then really rolled on the ground.

As soon as Xu Mingyan heard that Yang Ling was about to enter the door of the Wei State Mansion, his heart seemed to be poked violently, and he couldn't help asking, "Mother, has the eldest brother's family affairs really been decided?" ”

The eldest princess snorted coldly, curled the corners of her lips and said: "That's not bad, since the rebel likes this girl so much, then the palace will use this girl to operate in the future, and he will always be tortured to death!" ”

After finishing speaking, she looked at Xu Mingyan again and asked, "Mingyan, you said that you saw Mo Xuan's conflict with Jinyi Wei on Xuanwu Street that day?" Your eldest brother fed that girl a pill? Tell me, what the hell is going on? ”

After hearing this, Xu Mingyan raised his head in a bit of a daze, and his gaze was a little evasive.

The eldest princess saw that she seemed to have something on her mind, and asked again: "Mingyan, I see that you have been in a trance for the past few days, do you have something to hide from your mother?" ”

Xu Mingyan hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Don't dare." ”

"Mo Xuan hasn't come back for three days, what is he still doing in the Anguo Mansion?" The eldest princess asked again.

Mother Qin immediately rushed and said: "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, the fifth young master is probably because the eldest young master and the little girl of the Yang family are married, so he has a quarrel with the eldest young master, so he doesn't dare to come back!" Isn't that what your Royal Highness would like to see when they divide their brothers? ”

"If that's the case, that's good!" The eldest princess snorted coldly and continued, "But why did Mo Xuan never show up at the marriage ceremony between Shu Xuan and the little girl of the Yang family, this is not like his temperament, can he have the ability to stop Jinyi Wei from fighting with Lu Yanzhao in front of everyone, and he doesn't want to snatch his beloved woman from his eldest brother's marriage ceremony?" ”

After the eldest princess finished talking to herself, she glanced at it, and saw that Xu Mingyan wanted to speak and stopped, her expression was very frightened, and she couldn't help but be suspicious, and asked again: "Mingyan, you can't hide things from your mother in your heart, let's say, what is the matter?" ”

Xu Mingyan's body trembled slightly, and he hesitated for a long time before he walked in front of the eldest princess and said in a low voice: "Mother, this matter, my daughter doesn't know whether to talk about it or not, because it is related to the safety of the entire Guogong Mansion, and I am afraid of ......."

"Say, with this palace here, what are you afraid of?" The eldest princess was displeased to cut off.

Xu Mingyan was heartbroken, and leaned into the ear of the eldest princess and said a word, the eldest princess's face changed greatly after hearing it, frowned, and asked, "Is what that woman said credible?" What evidence is there to prove it? ”

Xu Mingyan shook his head: "My daughter has no evidence, but the news given by that woman has never been wrong, I think the third uncle is the best proof!" ”

The eldest princess stared, her eyes darkened, she paced a few steps in the bedroom, suddenly paused, firmly grasped her hand on a round chair, suddenly, she laughed, and said: "No, this is not bad news, for the palace, this is great news!" ”

"Immediately send someone to the Anguo Mansion and bring Xu Moxuan back to the palace!" Finally, she ordered to Qin's mother.

*****

After Qin's mother took a group of people to the Anguo Mansion, she did not find Xu Moxuan, because at that time, Xu Moxuan had quietly returned to the Wei Mansion and came to Xu Shuxuan's Listening to the Rain Building.

At that time, his father Xu Nuo was also discussing things with Xu Shuxuan in the listening rain building. Talking about Lu Bing's punishment and the rumors that came out, Xu Nuo was also very worried in his heart.

"Shu Xuan, I feel that there seems to be a force in the court that is forcing Lu Bing, I am worried that Lu Bing will break the alliance with you, and in desperation, he will confess Mo Xuan's life experience to the emperor, what should we do then?" Xu Nuo said.

After Xu Moxuan's assassination of Lu Bing on Xuanwu Street, Xu Nuo has indeed been sleepless in panic these days, and he has only told this brilliant nephew about what he did with a good heart, of course, if Xu Shuxuan hadn't found out Mo Xuan's identity himself, he might not have said it to anyone.

Therefore, in the entire Wei State Mansion, Xu Moxuan's true identity is only known to him and Xu Shuxuan, which is also a secret that has been guarded by the tacit agreement between their uncle and nephew.

But now, the barrier they built for this secret has become fragile, and now as long as Lu Bing says a word in front of the emperor, their Xu family will face the disaster of annihilation!

Xu Shuxuan also had a headache about this matter, but unlike Xu Nuo's panic, he still kept his face calm and said comfortingly: "Third Uncle is not in a hurry, in fact, things have come to this point, it is impossible for us to block other people's mouths, so we can only take advantage of the situation, the soldiers will block, and the water will be flooded!" ”

"However, we are facing the emperor! Could it be that we have to insist that Mo Xuan is my son in front of the emperor, and the emperor will be able to believe it? Xu Nuo asked rhetorically.

Xu Shuxuan listened, a dazzling light appeared in his clear eyes, and he said with a straight face: "Third uncle, it's really only like this...... No matter what others say or what the emperor asks, you have to be sure that Mo Xuan is your son! ”

After a pause, he added, "You and the illegitimate son of the Jiang family's woman!" ”

Xu Nuo was a little stunned, he looked at Xu Shuxuan puzzled, and seemed to feel that this method that was not a solution was a little ridiculous.

"Third uncle, in fact, I am sure that Lu Bing will not betray the alliance between me and him, however, what I am worried about is others, now not only Lu Bing, but also another woman has learned about Mo Xuan's background, and I don't know if this woman has colluded with my officials in the court, and I haven't found out her details yet......"

When Xu Shuxuan said this, suddenly a figure landed from the roof, half-knelt in front of him and Xu Nuo, and said in a deep voice: "Big brother, father, you should hand me over to the emperor to deal with!" Maybe only in this way can you redeem your merits and the Xu family be spared! ”

Seeing that it was Xu Moxuan, Xu Nuo hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to help him up, and sighed: "Child, you are finally willing to come back!" ”

Xu Moxuan looked up at Xu Nuo, and found that after not seeing him for a few days, the father who had raised him for more than ten years had suddenly aged a lot, and he didn't feel a pain in his heart, and said even more ashamedly: "Father, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have lost such a temper with you that day!" ”

"What are you talking about, you are my son, I can still be angry with you!" Xu Nuo's eyes were a little sour, and he said with a slight rebuke, "It's just that you have to study more like your eldest brother in the future and change your impulsive temperament!" ”

After hearing this, Xu Moxuan's heart became even more sour, he reluctantly unfolded a smile on his face, kowtowed to Xu Nuo a few times, and choked up: "Father, your great kindness to Mo Xuan, Mo Xuan may only be able to repay it in the next life!" ”

After speaking, he got up and wanted to run towards the backyard door of Tingyulou, at this time, Xu Shuxuan shouted: "Come back!" At the same time, Nan Chu responded and arrested him back!

"Where are you going?" Xu Shuxuan asked.

Xu Moxuan replied simply: "I can't affect the entire Xu family!" ”

"Do you think that surrendering in front of the emperor will save the Xu family from being implicated?" Xu Shuxuan asked coldly.

Xu Moxuan felt a pain in his heart and was speechless.

Xu Shuxuan suddenly stood up, took out a brocade box from the drawer of a multi-treasure pavilion, put it in front of Xu Moxuan, and said, "If you don't want to affect our Xu family, just take one of the pills in this box!" ”

Xu Moxuan opened the box and saw that it was a black pill, he didn't ask, and swallowed the pill into his mouth.

At this time, Xu Shuxuan asked: "Mo Xuan, I only ask you, do you still want to be a member of our Xu family?" I'm still not your big brother? ”

Xu Moxuan immediately raised his head and replied, "Of course...... Still want to ...... It's just that I'm still worthy of being a member of the Xu family? ”

Xu Shuxuan said: "As long as you are still willing to be a member of the Xu family, then in front of the emperor, you must never admit the truth you know, and if there is anything about your assassination of Lu Bing, you must also insist that it is for Ah Ling." ”

"When the time comes, I will clear his suspicions about you in front of the emperor." (To be continued.) )
