Chapter 236: Cruelty
Lu Jiang slowly lowered his head, his eyes half-closed, "There is not much spice left, as long as the county lord doubts me, then ...... Spices will have no effect on her. After all, she is the daughter of the eldest princess and Prince Mu. ”
"Isn't there still Ling Feng? She couldn't give up Ling Feng. ”
Mrs. Lu was very contemptuous of the stupidity of the county lord of Zhaohua, but it was undeniable that Lu Lingfeng was very effective.
Lu Jiang frowned, "It's not difficult to hide from Lu Tianyang, he already thinks that the county lord is hypocritical, and I'm worried that I can't hide it from Ah Jiu and Mrs. Jiang." She is more transparent than the county lord. ”
"Let Ling Feng grind the county lord, I guess the county lord will do his best." Mrs. Lu suddenly realized Yan zhòng, and she couldn't help but be tempted, "When Ling Feng has an heir, he doesn't know how many years to ascend, Tianyang is always your son, this is your first grandson." ”
"Huh."
Lu Jiang smiled, her dark eyes overflowing with mockery, and Mrs. Lu's heart tightened, "What?" He's not ......"
"Mother, after doing something like that, he can't be my son, do you understand?"
Lu Jiang groaned in pain, as if the scar was lifted again, drenched in blood, and the pain was followed by low purity mixed with happy masochistic laughter.
It was as if a tortured and suffering man suddenly found that there were people in this world who suffered more than himself, and anyone would have a moment of satisfaction, especially the most unlucky person who was pushed down the abyss by himself.
Mrs. Lu's eyelids kept jumping, and when she saw Lu Jiang laughing like this, she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, "Jiang'er." ”
I still remember that after Lu Yun's death, Lu Jiang also had difficulty laughing uncontrollably.
Lu Jiang's hand covered his eyes, "I'm fine." Mother. Lu Tianyang married Ah Jiu to surprise me, and Ah Jiu is the granddaughter of the eldest princess and Mu Wangye surprised me even more, but things are getting more and more interesting. The effect is also exceptionally good. ”
"Is the hometown of Dongliao really in your hands?"
"You don't believe me?"
"No, no." Stared at by her son's bloodthirsty eyes, Mrs. Lu's lips were numb. "I'm just asking casually, our Lu family has to have a way out."
"They will all die together, and I will raise me and Lu Yun's hometown in Dongliao's hometown to be reborn, which is the place that Lu Yun is most worried about. It was also a place I swore to protect. ”
He used the Nanling royal family to attract the attention of Emperor Shenwu to Jiangnan, as long as the eldest princess finally transferred the forces of the troops in the hometown of Eastern Liao back to the imperial capital, and fought with Lu Tianyang and King Qi. Lu Jiang can completely control the former Eastern Liao Kingdom.
When the Eastern Liao is restored and competes with the empire, the people who are in their hearts can identify with him.
Years of dedication, forbearance. It's the planning that has value.
*******
Ah Jiu heard about his happy news from Lu Tianyang's mouth. After the surprise, it was also a little funny, and it was really happy in turn.
"But I'm ...... There was also ...... last month"
"My mother-in-law said that some special people will be red."
Lu Tianyangjun's face was slightly red and he discussed with Ah Jiu about private topics that only belonged to women, and encircled Ah Jiu in his arms, but he didn't imprison Ah Jiu like in the past, "I asked the emperor for a month's leave, originally I wanted to invite you to give birth to our child, but the emperor didn't allow it." ”
That's so aggrieved.
Ah Jiu couldn't help but laugh and think, normal bosses can't be okay?
Emperor Shenwu could count on Lu Tianyang to take full control of the Wind Legion. Tear down the foundation of the Lujiang River.
A month off has already surprised Ah Jiu, and no matter how much a man attaches importance to his heirs, he will not sacrifice his career.
"My father-in-law has been grinding for a long time. His Majesty agreed. ”
Lu Tianyang cherished it very much, and carefully touched Ah Jiu's belly, the corners of his mouth were about to crack to the roots of his ears, and he put on a strict look, "You can't do anything dangerous in the future, you must tell me if you want anything, even if I go to the corps after my vacation, I can sneak away." ”
The servant who entered the door with the tonic trembled at his feet, is this what the Hou Ye said?
Most of the people who can serve their entourage in close proximity have been raised by Lu Tian for a long time, and they know the temperament of their young master, but now they find that maybe the young master is not something they can understand.
It's a bit of a big change.
Ah Jiu is quite satisfied with Lu Tianyang's cherishment, no one wants to be snubbed by her husband, comforting Lu Tianyang, who is 'frightened' and 'nervous', how can there be Uncle Lu's calmness and calmness at this time?
"Okay, I'll promise you."
Ah Jiu shrank into Lu Tianyang's arms, hiding the uneasiness that suddenly appeared in his heart, "I listen to you." ”
Like Lu Tianyang, Ah Jiu is also looking forward to the birth of a child, but for some reason, she just has an unspeakable uneasiness, as if she is destined to lose one of the most precious things.
Therefore, she connived at Lu Tianyang's care for herself, and connived at Lu Tianyang to pester herself all day long.
Even if he went to the garden for a walk, Lu Tianyang had to follow and help her go, except for sleeping, Lu Tianyang would appear in front of Ah Jiu's eyes all the time.
Ah Jiu didn't like to be tied up so tightly, Lu Tianyang looked like he was looking forward to being careful, who was not soft-hearted.
Who can be like a man who is extremely handsome and cute? Will tug at your sleeve and refuse to let go?
Especially when he kept good things for his son all day long, Ah Jiu was a soft heart.
Lu Tianyang was so soft-hearted that he had to collect a lot of things for his son, eating, playing, and using, and merchants often selling goods appeared in Yuhou's mansion.
And Lu Tianyang just one word, buy!
Ah Jiu has seen that the things that the child has raised from birth to adulthood, Lu Tianyang has already purchased all the things, and the number of pieces is by no means one, according to the quantity, let alone raising a child, it is more than enough to raise six or seven.
"Aren't you afraid that the style will not be fashionable when the time comes?"
Ah Jiu fiddled with the ten-year-old child's clothes, interrupting Lu Tianyang, who was excited to introduce how to play with toys, "This style, I'm afraid I won't be able to use it next year." ”
And their child will be born next year.
Who can throw out the stupid father in front of him who has evolved from a son of a family to a local tyrant to show off his wealth?
"Isn't that much too wasteful?" Ah Jiu clearly remembered that although Lu Tianyang paid attention to enjoyment, he rarely wasted buying things that he didn't need.
She had heard that she had been stupid for three years after being pregnant, how could she not be stupid. The husband has become abnormal.
Lu Tianyang waved his hand boldly, quite like a local tyrant who was very rich, "Since Ah Jiu doesn't like it." I'll buy a new one. ”
"Aren't you afraid of spoiling your son?"
Ah Jiu was speechless, "If you spoil too much, you can't raise a good son, Lu Tianyang!" Have you ever listened to me again? ”
The rattle sounded, Ah Jiu watched Lu Tianyang shake the rattle, and the smirk on his face was strange, which made Ah Jiu's heart sour. Nervous.
secretly forgave Lu Tianyang for his doting on his son.
A month later, Lu Tianyang was reluctant to leave the Hou Mansion, before leaving. He explained a lot of things that Ah Jiu was not allowed to do.
Because of the protection of the Jiang family and Lu Tianyang, in this month, neither the Lu family nor the county lord of Zhaohua nor Mrs. Lu could see Ah Jiu. I can't even see each other, let alone use my hands and feet.
Even a trivial item around Ah Jiu was checked and checked. Eating is more cautious, these things don't have to worry about Ah Jiu, the Jiang family will ask the same, and Lu Tianyang found the grandmother after learning that Ah Jiu was happy, even the Jiang family admired it.
Jiang once said to Ah Jiu privately that he thought he had thought it through, and only after comparing those people did he find that there were people outside the world, and there was a sky outside the sky.
Lu Tianyang trusted them very much, and Jiang asked where he found them. Lu Tianyang didn't hide it, they were all people in the palace before.
At least it is not something that the palace of the Western Qin Empire can raise.
After all, Shikoku was the beginning. Only the Western Qin State has the worst foundation, but it is the Western Qin Empire that unifies the world.
Under heavy protection, Jiang saw that Ah Jiu's face was getting better and better, and he was a lot more relieved.
She also has a large family to take care of, although she handed over the Hou Mansion to Mo Junyong's daughter-in-law, Jiang had to call one or two from time to time, not to mention that she took care of Mo Guanjie and her young son, so she could only go to the Hou Mansion to visit Ah Jiu every three or five times.
"Madam, the people have been brought to the capital."
"Let's go to the study."
Ah Jiu had just woken up, and when he heard that the groom he was looking for had arrived, he hurriedly packed up and went to the small study.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw an old man in rags fifty miles away, with a haggard face, white temples, weather-beaten, and a dull yellow face with the weakness of recovering from a serious illness.
When the man saw the pretty Ah Jiu, he knelt down directly, "Meet...... Meet Madame. ”
was kidnapped into Beijing by a group of people, he couldn't ask, and no one told him the reason, so he could only be honest and obedient, and entered this rich mansion blindfolded.
Although the woman who came in was young, she wore her hair in a bun, was exquisitely dressed, and her gestures showed excellent origin, and she also had a shrewd and capable taste.
He didn't dare to despise the lady in front of him who was enough to control his life and death because of his age.
"You get up first."
Ah Jiu was not used to him kneeling at his feet, and the attendant next to him forcibly helped him up, Ah Jiu slowed down his voice, "You used to be a groom in the Lu family. ”
“…… Yes, the villain's surname is Zhang, ranked fourth, you can call Zhang Si, the villain served the Duke of Chengguo, and later the grace of Mrs. Chengguo led the slave to return to his hometown to live. ”
"The wife you married is Xiaohong, the maid next to Mrs. Lu, isn't it?"
"Yes, it's Xiaohong, she's just a third-class girl in front of Mrs. Tai, she can't enter Mrs. Tai's body to serve, she looks average, her mouth is clumsy, and she doesn't know how to please her master."
Zhang Si looked very nervous, he didn't dare to hide anything, he had an instinctive fear of the black-clothed person who held him hostage, and those who made him afraid were honest and obedient in front of this lady, and it was foreseeable that the lady had him arrested.
"Twenty-seven years ago, the county lord of Zhaohua went to the Lu family's hometown to worship his ancestors, and was attacked by the enemy, do you remember?"
“……”
Zhang Si's body shook, his face became even more ugly, how could he forget the bloody scene? Mountains of dead people were piled up, and many of his little men perished.
"Tell me about the situation."
"Madame...... It'......"
"Say it from the beginning, without a word." Ah Jiu pointed to the chair next to him, "Sit down and tell me everything you know." ”
"The villain doesn't know anything."
"You know." Ah Jiu's eyes were bright and full of the power to calm people's hearts, "You are the first person to know about the enemy's attack from Xiaohongkou. ”
"No...... It's not ......" Zhang Si hurriedly denied, "I don't know, I was just a normal errand that day." ”
"You're from the stable, and since you're on an errand, let me ask you how many red-maned horses were there in the stable?"
Ah Jiu stared at Zhang Si, "I'll talk about it after I think about it." ”
"Four horses."
Zhang Si didn't dare to look at Ah Jiu, and said in a low voice: "It's four horses." ”
"No, there were three horses that day, and one of them was ridden away." Ah Jiu said firmly, "I remember that you are in charge of the red-maned horse, if you are in the stable, you can't not know." ”
"I'm in the stable, and no one rides the red-maned horse." Zhang Sisheng persisted hoarsely, and finally got rid of the nightmare, and he must not show the slightest tone.
"The county lord of Zhaohua is pregnant, and the taste has become extremely weird, and he suddenly wants to eat sour and hot side dishes, but the restaurant that sells side dishes is not close to the Lu family's hometown, so the guards of the county lord of Zhaohua rode to buy side dishes. The guard had chosen a red-maned horse. It's a pity that he was killed by people pretending to be bandits on the way. ”
"You...... How would you know? ”
Zhang Si knew that the eldest princess, An Guogong and others were investigating the attack by the enemy, and no one paid attention to the details. How could it be suddenly turned out by the lady in front of you?
Ah Jiu smiled, but after reading all the information and confessions, he finally found something very suspicious in many materials. For example, someone mentioned in the information that the county lord of Zhaohua asked people to buy side dishes, and the guards left on red-maned horses, and for example, the maids around Mrs. Lu did not survive much in that bandit, and Xiaohong was the one who was most easily ignored.
In addition, the person who worked as an errand in the stable should be the first to be controlled, and the survival rate was also very low, but Zhang Si survived.
The two surviving people quickly got married and left the Lu family, unlike the people who were acquitted, they were not worth noting at all, and they didn't get much reward from the master, but Ah Jiu found out that Zhang Si paid money for leaving the Lu family.
The focus of Lu Tianyang's attention is on Mrs. Lu and others, as well as the subordinates of the Lu family, like Zhang Si and Xiaohong are insignificant, and the little people who are not worth mentioning will naturally be ignored.
They have never bloomed, and among a group of minions released by the Lu family, they are the most inconspicuous pair.
"You were only afraid that you were having a tryst with Xiaohong to appease your sweetheart who occasionally heard the news of an enemy attack, maybe others didn't believe what Xiaohong said, after all, she was just an inconspicuous third-class girl, and some stupid and clumsy, so the news of such a heavy dà must not be heard by Xiaohong. It is because you believe in Xiaohong that you can avoid that catastrophe. ”
"I ......"
Zhang Si's throat was bitter.
"You can not admit it, and I will not torture you." Ah Jiu said softly, "But I promise that you won't survive for three days and you will tell me the original Yiqiē, what did Xiaohong hear?" The original bandit was not deliberately arranged by Cheng Guogong. ”
Zhang Si's body went limp, he sat down on the ground, and looked at Ah Jiu in horror, "Crazy, crazy, how much does Grandpa Guo care about Lord Zhaohua?" How could he bear to put the county lord in danger? And put the entire Lu family on board? A lot of people died at that time, a lot of ......"
Ah Jiu slowly lowered his eyelids, and sure enough, he didn't guess wrong, Lu Jiang didn't care about the county lord of Zhaohua at all, and the bandit just wanted to take advantage of the fact that the county lord of Zhaohua was about to give birth...... Solve their mother and son together?
ps The truth is very cruel, cough cough, it doesn't break, it doesn't stand, the sun is always after the wind and rain, everyone has to believe that the night will not be abused. (To be continued......)
