The persuasion of Huo Jin, Qin Hong and others made Lu Zuo hesitate, not because of how complicated the court situation was, but because of his mother's funeral. After Lu Zuo thought about it deeply, he let out a long sigh, "Okay! Since the matter is urgent, I will ask the emperor to resign early tomorrow morning and return to my hometown to mourn, and see if it is best to set off tomorrow, if not, I will have to wait until the day after tomorrow to set off at the earliest. ”

After quietly arranging the accommodation of several people, Lu Renxiang went back to his mansion, and Qin Hong, Lu Manxi and Huo Jin also went back to their respective guest rooms to rest.

After Lu Zuo and Jing Jingruo chatted a few words in the guest room, they were also about to go back to the wing room to rest, and when they walked to the door, they saw Huo Jin turn back again, and pulled Lu Zuo back to the study with a panicked expression. After quietly watching the two of them enter the study, they realized that something might have happened, so after closing the door, he turned around and followed into the house, and then asked Huo Jin when he entered the room, "What's wrong?" ”

Huo Jin pulled Lu Zuo to the table, looked around in the light and shadow, and after making sure that there was no one else, he said: "When Lu Renxiang returned to the village a while ago, the woman he brought with him was a little strange! ”

"Oh!" Lu Zuo exclaimed, "You mean brother and sister, He's?" ”

"Yes!" Huo Jin continued, "We inquired, the He family is the main family that Renxiang married when he was serving in Suzhou, and this person is also the daughter of He Younian, the assassin of Suzhou, and his background is not ordinary. It is said that He Younian is still the person who abolished the prince. ”

Jing Jingruo answered, "We all know this, but Renxiang likes it herself, and when Renxiang was in Suzhou, thanks to the help of He's father and daughter, she was able to return to Beijing safely, presumably He should be different from her father." ”

Lu Zuo nodded in agreement.

Huo Jinshen shook his head disapprehantly, "According to the reliable information of the big leader, it is said that on the first day of Renxiang's return to Lujiazhuang, the He family sent someone to Fengji Mountain to inquire about the situation, and they were caught by our minions. If the second leader hadn't looked at Renxiang's face, he would have killed that spy a long time ago. ”

"What did you do with this spy after that?" Lu Zuo asked.

"Put it back." A trace of worry appeared on Huo Jin's brows, "Brother Lu, that's why the big boss is in a hurry to ask you to go back at this time, otherwise, this He family will find out your details sooner or later." When the time comes, it's too late to regret it. ”

Jing Ruo looked at Lu Zuo suspiciously, never thinking that her husband's face was unwavering.

"I see." Lu Zuo immediately said earnestly, "It's time to go back to your hometown!" ”

Jing Ruo was a little puzzled, but Huo Jin was there, so he didn't ask.

As if she had completed a task, Huo Jin couldn't help but smile and said, "Then I'll go and prepare my luggage." After saying that, he was about to turn around, but was stopped by Lu Zuo and asked, "What else is going on?" ”

"In a while, you accompany me to King Ning's Mansion."

"Ning Wangfu?" Huo Jin looked at Lu Zuo in disbelief, he didn't expect him to ask for him to accompany him, but he still flatly refused, "I'm not going to see any bullshit King Ning!" ”

Lu Zuo saw that he was about to turn around and leave again, and shouted, "It's not King Jianning." ”

"That's not going either."

"This person is related to the people of the world!"

Huo Jin said disdainfully: "What does it have to do with me?" ”

"Then what if this person is related to the net worth and life of the Fengjishan brothers?"

Huo Jin's face sank, and his face was full of suspicion, "Who are you seeing?" ”

"You'll find out when you go."

Huo Jin's brows were deeply locked for a moment, "Go, go!" Brother Lu, you wait here for me for a while. ”

After Jing Jingruo saw Huo Jin walking away, he asked Lu Zuo: "Xianggong, what do you mean when you say it's time to return to your hometown?" ”

Lu Zuo said: "Now it seems that the situation is about to change. , we have to pull out. ”

"Want to change?" Jing Ruo was even more puzzled, "Isn't the situation favorable to King Ning now?" What do we run? ”

"The prince and they have already begun to act, if we don't withdraw again, we may all have to be buried together." Since the case of King Wei last year, Lu Zuo has understood that he should retreat, and he must not be reckless.

"Isn't the prince still in prison?"

"It is precisely because the prince is in the prison that all of us will relax our vigilance, the prince has been imprisoned, but the He family is still sparing no effort to find out my news for the prince. Now it seems that I still undercalculated this trick after all, if I guessed correctly, the prince's henchmen have already arranged a plan to counterattack King Ning. ”

"Then why don't you tell King Ning and ask him to hurry up and prepare in case the crown prince rebels?"

Lu Zuo shook his head and fell into deep thought, "I'm afraid it's too late, now as long as King Ning makes a move, I'm afraid the prince's people will do it immediately." ”

Jing Ruo was also a little nervous, "So, we can only take the opportunity to run now?" ”

Lu Zuo nodded, "There is no choice." So tomorrow I will take my leave and return to my hometown on the grounds of mourning. ”

"But......" said quietly, "what about my father, what about them?" ”

"My father-in-law is the founder of the country, and he has not been reused by the emperor over the years, and he has nothing to do with King Ning, so there is no problem in staying in the capital. And your eldest brother doesn't have military power now, so they have no reason to do it. ”

If the face is as quiet as water, it may not be a bad thing for my father to stay in the capital, but if he leaves here with him, I am afraid that it will arouse suspicion, and everyone will be in danger at that time, so it seems that this can only be the case now, so he asked again: "Then you are so mysterious, who do you want to take Huo Jin to Ning Wangfu to see?" ”

"Liu Xingyuan." Lu Zuo's eyes revealed a killing intent, "We must take him with us tomorrow." ”

"Liu Xingyuan?" Quiet exclaimed in a stunned whisper, "Why? ”

"Now there is a lot of fighting in the court, the prince and King Ning will definitely lose, but now it seems that the prince's chances of winning are higher, if he controls the government, we must rise up in Shanzhou, otherwise we will still be slaughtered."

Jing Ruo really understood Lu Zuo's intentions at this time, it was impossible to say that it was impossible to move Liu Xingzhi to leave Beijing with him, he must be immersed in the dream of becoming a prince now, and the feasibility of bringing Liu Xingyuan with him was even higher, so it was nothing more than to become famous in the future, "Then are you going to tell Liu Xingyuan about this?" ”

Lu Zuo shook his head, "No, I am afraid that Liu Xingyuan will be soft-hearted, once he leaks the news to King Ning, King Ning will definitely gather troops to break the net, I am afraid that we will not have a chance to live at that time." ”

Quietly lowered his head sullenly, all this came so quickly, it was really you who sang and I appeared on the stage, and in the blink of an eye, King Ning's forces were about to face a real challenge, and the sad thing was that King Ning himself was still immersed in the joy of victory.

In the middle of the moon, Lu Zuo led Huo Jin one after the other, from the secret passage of Xinghua Restaurant to the secret room of King Ning's mansion, at that time, Liu Xingyuan had already received the news of his subordinates, and he was already waiting in the secret room.

Liu Xingyuan saw a strange man with a mighty figure behind Lu Zuo, and hurriedly stood up and saluted the other party first, never thinking that the other party would hold his head high and ignore it, which made Liu Xingyuan quite embarrassed, so he nodded to the other party with a smile and asked Lu Zuo: "Mr. Lu, who is this benevolent brother ......?"
