Chapter 481: Return
In Qinyi Courtyard, Mrs. Wu didn't know about the earth-shaking events of this night.
Although I vaguely heard the people in the palace talking about it, before dawn, there seemed to be a commotion outside, as if soldiers and horses had entered the capital...... Mrs. Wu didn't pay attention to it at all, she just regarded it as an ordinary change of garrison, and was exaggerated by those maids who had never seen the world.
It wasn't that Madame Wu was negligent, but that her attention was all taken away from another matter.
"What do you say? Lu didn't return all night last night? Mrs. Wu looked surprised, not angry, but mostly gloating, for fear that Lu's mother had made a mistake, "She has such a big courage?" Could it be that he is playing some tricks again, trying to lure us into the bait? ”
Although Mother Lu's voice was small, she was very sure: "Caimei and Cailian came to see me in the middle of the night last night, and after talking about this, the slave maid was afraid of arguing with you, and she was also worried that it was not true, so she temporarily blocked it." I quietly sent someone to inquire just now, only to find out that it was indeed true! Mrs. Shizi has not returned at this moment! ”
Mrs. Wu was a little more convinced.
On weekdays, Yuyuan is managed like an iron bucket by the Lu family, and it is difficult to spread some news...... This time, Lu's mother was able to send someone to inquire about the news, which shows that Lu Qingrong may really not be there.
"So easy to hear the results?" Mrs. Wu was particularly cautious.
"Madame doesn't know, not only Mrs. Shizi, but also those skilled guards in the mansion are not there......"
Mrs. Wu raised her eyebrows, and came to her senses: "When did you leave?" Do you know where you went? ”
Mother Lu shook her head and said truthfully: "It's not clear. But according to Caimei. Yesterday, Mrs. Shizi was summoned by the East Palace, and she went all day, and when she returned home, it was already dark...... And it didn't stay long. Soon quietly left the house. ”
That said, it was a whole night!
"Let's go!" Mrs. Wu couldn't wait to get up, "Let's hurry up to Yuyuan and wait for her to come back!" ”
Mother Lu didn't expect her to be so eager, and hurriedly persuaded her: "I don't know what is going on, let's ...... first?"
A cold snort came out of Mrs. Wu's nose, interrupting her words: "She is an inner house woman. Even if there is a big reason, you can't act so recklessly! What's more, Jiang Xuan is still locked up in the Criminal Department at this time! ”
Mrs. Wu couldn't suppress the joy in her heart.
She has to make this matter known to everyone in the capital!
Accumulated resentment. Let Mrs. Wu have already been out of the way, and she can't care about any such things as glory and loss, as long as she can hit Jiang Xuan and Lu Qingrong, she must do it.
It's useless for anyone to stop it. It was the first time that Mrs. Wu had rushed to Yuyuan at such a fast speed.
Lu Qingrong was really not there.
Mrs. Wu thought. Knowing that he was coming, the people in the Yu Courtyard would definitely panic, especially Lu Qingrong's henchmen, like Mother Ye and Mother Cao.
Unexpectedly, the truth was very different from what she imagined.
Mother Ye and Mother Cao were there, but no one saw a trace of panic.
Mrs. Wu directly broke into the front hall, and the two of them just greeted each other casually, and then Mother Ye went down to arrange tea in person.
Cao's mother stood aside to accompany her. The expression is also calm.
After passing through the lobby of the Criminal Department, Mrs. Wu became angry when she saw Cao's mother. At this time, looking at her expression that was not salty or light, it was even more boring.
Fortunately, remembering that Lu Qingrong gave him such a happy handle, Mrs. Wu eased up a little.
"Where's your wife?" Mrs. Wu opened her mouth in a strange way.
"It's out."
"When did you go out?"
"Last night."
Mrs. Wu glared at Cao's mother, never expecting that she didn't even hide it in the slightest, as if it was just a normal little thing.
Mrs. Wu felt like a punch on the cotton, and her momentum suddenly weakened a lot: "Where did she go?" ”
"I don't know."
Mrs. Wu suddenly became angry, and her voice rose sharply: "Is this how you are in charge of your mother!" The prince is not in the mansion now, you actually let the Lu family act so frivolously, not only did you stop it, but also helped her hide it! ”
Mother Cao was still not in a hurry, only frowned slightly, and replied: "The slave maid did not hide it, Mrs. Shizi just went out, as for where she went, I really don't know ......."
Mrs. Wu became more and more angry, and opened her mouth for a long time before she shouted: "When you are unlucky with her, I want to see if you can still be so hard-mouthed!" ”
Mother Cao simply stopped talking, and just stood aside respectfully, listening to Mrs. Wu's voice getting louder and louder.
Mother Ye quickly came in with a tea tray, and while serving tea, she persuaded Mrs. Wu to dissipate her anger.
When Mrs. Wu saw that she didn't ask what was going on, she persuaded her indiscriminately, and she was even more angry, so she picked up the teacup and threw it out directly.
Fortunately, the teacup flew out between Mother Ye and Mother Cao, and it didn't hurt anyone.
With a crisp and piercing sound, the celadon teacup was smashed to powder, and the hot tea was scattered to the ground.
The next moment, I heard Lu Qingrong's rather brisk voice coming from outside the door: "It's early in the morning, who is so careless!" ”
Lu Qingrong's leisurely attitude formed a strong contrast with the atmosphere in the front hall at this moment.
Mrs. Wu didn't care at all, thinking that she was going to make Lu Qingrong turn from joy to worry in a while, and her mood was a little better.
Just when Mrs. Wu was secretly proud and was about to throw out all the words of reprimand, she saw the people following Lu Qingrong and immediately stood on the spot.
Mo Nan and the guards were fine, but they were just another person in military uniform, and they stood out in the crowd.
This person's outfit is not common in the capital, but Mrs. Wu recognizes it.
Zhenbei Iron Ride!
More than ten years ago, in order to design Mrs. Jiang with An Lebo, she once tried every possible way to find out the whereabouts of the Zhenbei Iron Cavalry Fu, trying to seize it from Mrs. Jiang and wipe out the Zhenbei General's Mansion......
Even after Mrs. Jiang passed away, in order to cut off all Jiang Xuan's back roads, she still did not give up this plan. When Lu Qingrong's mother and daughter were invited to the Hou Mansion, they tried their best to get words from the young Lu Qingrong's mouth, just for this matter.
At this moment, seeing Lu Qingrong and the general of the Zhenbei Iron Cavalry appear at the same time, all kinds of past moments rolled in his heart, but he was like a mess, and he couldn't find a clue.
Sure enough, that talisman is really in Lu Qingrong's hands, and has she kept it to this day?
So what is she doing today, is she going to rebel!
Just when Mrs. Wu was puzzled, a bell suddenly sounded in her ears, as if she was helping her answer her questions.
Rong'en Street is not far from the palace and the drum tower, and the sound of the bell at this time cannot be distinguished from that side.
But only one circumstance can explain the number of times the bell rings......
The emperor is dead! (To be continued.) )
