Chapter Eighty-Six: A White Dress
Liu Xun was closed, and his originally smiling face sank, "What about Lu Zuo?" He did not participate in the rebellion, and as far as his grandson knew, he tried his best to persuade his ninth brother not to do such a disobedient thing. ”
"He? Didn't the Holy One say that he was innocent! And the mourning family thought that he would die after he was released from prison, but didn't you just say that he is still alive and well? How? What could happen to him? ”
"Someone wants to kill them all!"
The Queen Mother was surprised: "Oh? If he is innocent, why should he be driven out and killed? And who will kill him? ”
"This grandson has no evidence and it is not easy to testify, but the queen mother must know it. Last night, in the Tao Mansion where Mr. Lu stayed, there was an assassin assassin, and after the other party failed to assassinate, he also set a fire in his bedroom! The means are truly outrageous! ”
"What?" The wrinkles on the Queen Mother's cheeks trembled, evoking the hatred in the depths of her eyes, "In the land of the king of the capital, who is so bold." ”
Liu Xun saw that the Queen Mother was angry, and a trace of happiness passed through her heart, "The Queen Mother is angry, fortunately, Mr. Lu is clever and has taken it in a restaurant early to escape this catastrophe!" Ay! Mr. Lu is really pitiful! ”
"Where is Lu Zuo now?"
Liu Xun knew that the Queen Mother had begun to care about this matter, so he continued to sigh: "Mr. Lu is really pitiful, he is wholeheartedly for the King of Wei, but he didn't expect to be implicated, and now he is worried every day. ”
"Where are the others?" The queen sank like water, and her eyes were full of resentment, which made the silver-haired old man seem a little more energetic.
Liu Xun replied according to Lu Zuo's words: "He is hiding in a very safe inn now, but sooner or later those people will still find him." ”
"Then bring him to me!" The Queen Mother's tone seemed to be asking to see an old man.
Liu Xun pretended to hesitate and did not dare to answer.
The Queen Mother smiled bitterly, "What? After all that, and not letting him come to see me? ”
"No, it's just ......" Liu Xun stopped talking.
"Just what? Say it! ”
Liu Xun was waiting for the Queen Mother's words, "It's just that Mr. Lu is just a white dress, if he rashly enters the palace to meet the Queen Mother, he will become the target of the public, and after he leaves the palace, he will become a ghost under the knife of people with ill intentions!" ”
The Queen Mother suddenly understood Liu Xun's intentions, Liu Xun came to see him this time just to let himself recommend officials for Lu Zuo, but with Lu Zuo's talent, he can take any position in the six departments, and I heard that when this year's scientific examination, he should have won the first place, but Xu'er made a mistake, which caused Lu Zuo's name to fall to Sun Mountain, and now Lu Zuo is hiding in Tibet because of Xu'er, and he is worried about his life at any time, and he also feels guilty for Xu'er, although King Ning came to lobby this matter inevitably has the suspicion of being a friend. But the prince killed Lu Zuo in order to eliminate dissidents, since what he can help Xu'er do, maybe it is to recommend Lu Zuo to the emperor, so that he may be able to save his life.
The Queen Mother thought about it, nodded meaningfully and said: "In this case, the mourning family will recommend Lu Zuo to the saint, which can be regarded as the last bit of good deed done for Xu'er!" But how should the mourning family tell the emperor this? ”
Liu Xun then followed what Lu Zuo said to him, and stepped forward to whisper a few words to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother also nodded again and again. Liu Xun saw that the task was successfully completed, so he retired.
The queen mother originally wanted to send someone to invite the emperor to come to Funing Palace, but after thinking about it, she decided to go in person, and the emperor recently built a new sleeping palace, called Qianren Palace.
The newly repaired Qianren Palace, not far from the Xuanzheng Palace, the top of the tall and mighty palace is extremely splendid under the light of the morning sun. Because yesterday was the birthday of the saint, so the whole country rested for three days, and the Han Emperor also wanted to be quiet, and some court officials and princesses and concubines who came to invite him early in the morning were rejected by the Han Emperor. Emperor Han himself was rarely idle, and he had nothing to do in the morning, so he picked up a pen and painted in the Qianren Palace.
Emperor Han is painting is rising, a picture of the country is about to be completed, when the heart is proud, the eunuch suddenly flashed to the front to report, the eunuch was scolded by the Han Emperor before he opened his mouth.
The eunuch trembled and knelt on the ground and said, "It's the Queen Mother's visit outside!" ”
After hearing this, Emperor Han threw the brush in his hand and stomped his feet angrily, "Oops! Why didn't you say it earlier! Then he went straight to the outside of the temple to meet him.
The Queen Mother was admiring the newly built palace under the stone steps, and when she saw her son running out in a hurry, she finally showed a smile that she hadn't seen for a long time, "Your Majesty, as the king of a country, what kind of system is so panicked!" ”
Emperor Han hurriedly stepped forward and pushed the maid away, personally supported him, and said with a smile: "The Queen Mother, you are here, how can your son procrastinate!" Come on, it's too hot outside, let's go into the hall, my son just painted a picture, the queen mother, come and enjoy it! ”
"Good! Lead the way! ”
Emperor Han led the Queen Mother to the palace to admire the paintings, the Queen Mother smiled slightly, did not say good or bad, and then looked around, "For the old mother, stand still, or sit and talk!" ”
So the Emperor of Han and the Queen Mother came to the back hall and sat in front of the couch. Emperor Han has begun to beat the drum in his heart, how can the old mother, who had been closed for several months, take the initiative to come to him today? Is it hard to get angry? But I didn't dare to ask.
The Queen Mother didn't have the eyes of the Han Emperor, she admired the layout of the back hall by herself, and exclaimed: "Hmm! Not bad! This Qianren Palace is exquisitely made. ”
"Queen Mother, if you like it, come often!" Emperor Han said with a flattering smile.
The Queen Mother waved her hand and said with a smile: "The mourning family is not blessed!" ”
Emperor Han's face sank, knowing that the queen mother must have something to say, but he didn't dare to ask directly if it was about Lao Jiu, "Queen Mother, what's wrong with you?" ”
"Nothing! It's about to be autumn in the blink of an eye, how is the war going on here? ”
Emperor Han was even more strange, how did the queen mother start to care about this, "Everything is as usual, the border pass came to report that An Shiqing has done a good job, and the alliance between Dafan and Qita may soon be self-defeating." How? Queen Mother, why do you care about this? ”
The Queen Mother said disapprovingly: "Then it will be autumn next, will Your Majesty still send someone to take command to take back Shanzhou?" ”
"This ......" Emperor Han wanted to speak and stopped, but after all, the other party was his biological mother, and he had to say, "It is imperative to take back Shanzhou, as for the selection of the commander, it has not yet been decided!" Queen Mother, what's wrong with you today? You've never asked about this before, but is that what you're here early this morning? ”
