Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Coffin in Front of the House
At the beginning of April, the air was peaceful and clear, and the capital was clear.
It was rumored on the streets that the black coffin in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion contained the corpse of the long road.
The night before that, the coffin appeared out of thin air in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion, obviously no one in the family had passed away, but this coffin couldn't get along with the Prime Minister's Mansion, how unfortunate this must be.
On the night of the incident, the entire capital was in a sensation, and the prime minister, Lu Chenyuan, did not plan to dispose of it, but ordered someone to watch the coffin until dawn.
Lu Chenyuan didn't dare to open the coffin, he was afraid that the person in the coffin was really his daughter - the road was long, and he couldn't stand such a blow.
Accompanying Lu Chenyuan to stand in front of the mansion gate to watch was Mo Chuqing, not to mention how happy she was in her heart now.
With such a large mouthful of golden silk nan wooden coffin, it is a long way to go.
Mo Chuqing is afraid that she doesn't want the coffin to lie in the coffin with a long road, she should have forgotten that as long as she has money, anyone can use this golden silk nanmu.
Lu Chenyuan really didn't open the coffin, he turned around and entered the house after explaining, and with a wave of his long sleeves, the whole person had a lot of vicissitudes.
He hadn't been so worried since he ran away from home, and tonight, I'm afraid it's ......
Sure enough, when Lu Chenyuan fell into a dream, the dream was full of his daughter lying in a pool of blood, and he couldn't move no matter how he shouted that Lu Long couldn't move.
At night, Lu Chenyuan woke up, his forehead was full of beads of sweat, and his back was soaked with cold sweat.
He turned his head to look at Mo Chuqing who was lying beside him, she slept soundly, and the snoring disturbed Lu Chenyuan's headache.
The moonlight was hazy, silent, and the sound of the wind blowing was not as loud as Mo Chuqing's snoring.
The more Lu Chenyuan looked at it, the more he felt panicked, he sighed and slapped his thigh, "Hey, old man, let's go and pry the coffin open and take a look!" ”
Without further ado, he walked out of the door after getting dressed neatly, and did not forget to gently bring the door to Mo Chuqing.
It was dark all the way, Lu Chenyuan didn't want to go so fast, he was afraid that if he knew the truth too early, he wouldn't be able to accept it.
However, the Prime Minister's Mansion said that it was not big, and it was not small that it was small, and he walked to the door of the mansion after a while.
The subordinate was drowsy, and when he noticed that there was movement, he hurriedly picked up the guy and held it tightly.
"Who?"
It was pitch black, and no one could see anyone clearly, and with the moonlight illuminating the outline, the next person recognized this person as the master at a glance.
He put down the thing in his hand and took out a fire from his waist and blew it on.
The subordinate shrank his neck and slowly passed the fire fold towards Lu Chenyuan, and he was very careful to use his other hand to surround the firelight, so as not to let the faint fire light be blown out by the wind.
He asked softly, "Master, why are you here?" ”
Lu Chenyuan glanced him up and down, and said seriously: "I can't sleep, go around." ”
When the subordinate saw his master looking at him like this, he felt a little uncomfortable all over his body.
He withdrew a hand and scratched the back of his head, a stiff smile on his face, and he asked, "Did you just be frightened?" ”
Lu Chenyuan didn't think he was scary, but shifted the topic to the firelight, he stared at the fire fold held by the next person, and waved his hand.
He said, "It's okay, why don't you light the lamp?" ”
The expression on the face of the subordinate became even stiffer at this time, he originally wanted to be lazy to extinguish the fire, who would have thought that Lu Chenyuan would come after he closed his eyes for a while?
He made a fool of himself, "I thought that no one would wander around without sleep at night, so I saved the candle flame, but there were lanterns on both sides of the gate outside the house." ”
He kept scratching his ears as he spoke.
From the firelight, you can see that the man's ears are red, and Lu Chenyuan doesn't want to debunk it, everyone wants to rest in the middle of the night, so let him go for the time being.
Lu Chenyuan chuckled, "Well, the original appearance is the person who is fine." ”
The next person thinks that today is not a good day, and he offended the lord when he opened his mouth, how can he mix in the Prime Minister's Mansion in the future?
The subordinate clenched his fists and bowed, and hurriedly said, "The old man is angry." ”
Lu Chenyuan didn't care about this, he looked at the door and said, "Go, open the coffin, I'll see what is in this coffin!" ”
"Yes."
How dare this person rub in, he opened the door as fast as he could, and then pried open the big coffin at the door effortlessly.
In the coffin lay a severed head man who was in a miserable state of death.
Seeing this scene, the subordinate closed his eyes and immediately turned around, he was so frightened that his legs were weak.
In the middle of the night, he encountered this bad thing, and it was really not suitable for him to go out today.
When the subordinate opened his eyes and saw that Lu Chenyuan had already stepped out of the mansion gate, he immediately reported: "Old ...... Sir, not Miss. ”
The ghost knows how difficult it was for Lu Chenyuan to take the few steps out of the house just now, and his heart was stabbed by a sharp knife!
Hearing what the next person said, his hanging heart was suddenly put into his stomach.
He stepped forward quickly, put his hands on the coffin, and put his head in to see that it was not his precious daughter.
What a feeling of relief!
He patted the coffin and laughed: "Cover the coffin, look at it carefully, don't lose it." ”
Lu Chenyuan was puzzled why this person died so miserably, and what made him even more puzzled was why this coffin was transported to his door?
Who would be so bold?
In other words, who would dare to provoke the Prime Minister's Office?
Lu Chenyuan couldn't figure it out, it was estimated that all these mysteries would be solved after dawn!
It really didn't go as Lu Chenyuan expected.
The rooster cries and the sunrise is like Luofu, and the east wind blows a wonderful person.
As soon as the sky was bright, a plain-clothed girl was holding a man in a purple robe, and the two were standing in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The two of them were silent, and they didn't plan to enter the mansion, but they were waiting for something.
The subordinate stayed up all night, his eyelids were fighting, he rubbed his eyes, and his soul was almost gone.
I thought, isn't this the eldest lady? She's actually back?
What the hell happened today? I don't want to let myself live in peace.
The subordinate who guarded the door politely called her when he saw that the road was long, "Big ...... Miss! ”
Lu Manman whispered: "Call the master out." ”
She had no expression on her face, just her hands on top of the coffin, her eyes fixed on it.
The subordinate didn't dare to slack off, he saw that the road was long and didn't want to enter the mansion, so he first bowed his waist and prepared to go to the mansion, "Yes, yes, the little one will go!" ”
After saying that, the subordinate ran inside, shouting as he ran: "Miss is back, Miss is back!" ”
Mo Chuqing's maid in the house shouted loudly with the doorkeeper because she was the lady's favorite girl, "What are you yelling about? Didn't you see that Madame was still sleeping? ”
The two did not argue, the man did not bother to quarrel with her at all, he rolled his eyes at the maid and said, "I have announced, it is none of my business whether to meet or not, take my leave." ”
Before half a pillar of incense, passers-by from all walks of life gathered outside the Prime Minister's Mansion to watch the play, including celebrities who knew everyone in the capital, and beggars who were unknown to the unknown.
They are all watching the excitement today, and it is the coffin and the eldest lady of the Lu family who has been ruined.
A man dressed in a palatial costume, smoking a cigarette and looking at the road with his unkind eyes, swallowed the clouds and said, "Look, that's the shameless woman." ”
After saying this, someone responded, "Yes, I eloped with someone at a young age, and I don't know what this prime minister taught!" ”
"Yes, yes, she looks so watery, just like her mother, she is not a good stubble!"
……
The words of passers-by were full of dissatisfaction with the long road, and Li Chenluo could hear how hurtful these words were.
Li Chenluo couldn't stand it anymore, he pulled out the sword on his back and showed it in front of everyone, he opened his mouth to stop: "Chewing the root of the tongue is because you think you have lived too long, right?" ”
Lu Manman had an indifferent look, "Those who don't know are not guilty, and thanks to their gossip, I can come back alive." ”
"Who dares to call in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion? Isn't it dying? ”
When Lu Chenyuan heard the news of Lu Manman's return, he hurried and hurried, but no one was there, and the sound first deterred the people outside the mansion.
A wallside grass opened his mouth to persuade: "The prime minister is out, don't say it!" ”
"The Prime Minister's official authority is really great, but he can't let people say that he can't control his daughter?"
The one who said this was obviously not afraid of death.
Everyone turned their heads to the man smoking a big cigarette and shook their heads in unison.
The man who smoked a big cigarette didn't know what was wrong, and continued to emphasize, "What I said is not wrong, there is no way to teach the girl!" ”
Li Chenluo jumped in front of him, carried his sword, put it on the man, and chuckled: "What a goddaughter, do you think you will be killed by the prime minister like this?" ”
"Young man, please respect yourself, at the feet of the Son of Heaven!"
After speaking, he looked at Li Chenluo calmly, and the two looked at each other.
Li Chenluo was not afraid of him, and said bluntly: "What about the feet of the Son of Heaven? Do you have to pay attention to the occasion when this young man is chivalrous and righteous? ”
The man understood, and this person was not going to let himself go......
"Shaoxia, I was wrong, the little one should be damned, please let the young man go!"
The man knelt on the ground in an instant, apologizing and kowtowing to Li Chenluo to admit his mistake.
Li Chenluo lowered his head, the sword continued to rest on the man's head, and he said coldly: "It's not disrespectful, if you put it in the barracks, you will be punished with a cane for thirty." ”
After speaking, Li Chenluo made a gesture to put away his sword and pull him to the barracks, but was stopped by the long road.
She said, "Brother Chenluo, don't make a big deal out of it. ”
Li Chenluo glanced at her, feeling that she was unusually calm today, and for some reason, she seemed to be alienating herself.
Li Chenluo nodded and agreed, and he let the man go.
The passers-by who saw this scene didn't dare to chew the root of their tongues anymore, and the ones that should have been scattered were almost scattered
At this time, Lu Chenyuan had already arrived, and he saw a familiar figure, with tears in his eyes.
Lu Chenyuan strode forward, and said as he walked: "It's a long time...... You, back? ”
Lu Man politely blessed Lu Chenyuan, "I have seen my father for a long time." ”
"I haven't seen you for a long time, I'm unfamiliar, or I'm fine, it's good to be back."
While speaking, Lu Chenyuan had already held Lu Manman's hand in his palm, and rubbed it from time to time.
Li Chenluo saw Lu Chang looking at Lu Chenyuan with bad intentions, so he opened his mouth to attract Lu Chenyuan's attention, and he said, "Uncle Lu, do you remember below?" ”
Lu Chenyuan turned his head to look at him, but his hand refused to let go of his daughter.
He smiled with relief and said, "Chen Luo, I had a few encounters at the end of last year, how could I forget." ”
"Hey, let's go into the house first."
As he spoke, he wanted to pull the road in.
The road was long like a huge stone, and Lu Chenyuan couldn't pull it over.
She said, "Wait, my daughter has something to announce." ”
Lu Chenyuan was puzzled, and pretended to be stupid and asked, "Is there anything you can't say in the mansion?" ”
Lu Manman let go of Lu Chenyuan's hand, and slapped her hand vigorously on the coffin again, she said indifferently: "You should have seen the people in the coffin, right, the father's continuation is going to kill his daughter, does the father know?" ”
Lu Manman didn't look at Lu Chenyuan while she was talking, she was not afraid of him, but she was afraid that she would be heartbroken when she saw Mo Chuqing's unbearable attitude in her father's eyes.
"This ......"
Lu Chenyuan didn't answer, he lowered his head, and his face was very bad.
Lu Manman's confrontation with Lu Chenyuan attracted that group of people back, and they all joined in the fun.
Someone asked in a whisper: "Why did Miss Lu do this thing?" ”
The people on the side were puzzled and exclaimed, "You don't know? ”
The uninformed person shook his head, confused in his head, "I don't know, do you know if you still ask?" ”
The person on the side kindly explained: "Look at it, the prime minister favored the prime minister's wife, which led to the death of the former wife, and the former lady's maiden family was also destroyed." ”
"Oh my God, officialdom is proud, love is frustrated!"
"That's not it, the emperor doesn't bother to care about all his!"
"Then this eldest lady is too miserable, how did I hear that the eldest lady's reputation has been ruined? Is this true? ”
"This is just a one-sided statement by the prime minister's wife, and no one has any evidence to prove whether the eldest lady was really humiliated."
"Then just now they tried to frame the eldest lady indiscriminately, but the eldest lady can still tolerate it?"
"Who knows, just watch quietly."
The two no longer talk and just watch the play.
The long road is indeed too miserable, and anyone will pity the long road.
But this prime minister is also strange, he actually favors Mo Chuqing, and he really doesn't care about his innocence.
It's so miserable to have such a father on the road......
