Out of Linxiang Garden, Lu Jue did not go to the East Chamber, but walked alone on the street, aimlessly.

I don't know how long I walked, my hands and feet were numb from the cold, and my body began to shiver before I stopped.

But it happened to stop in front of the Dali Temple.

He looked up at the hanging door plaque and smiled bitterly, it seemed that no matter how he walked, it would be difficult for him to get out of that circle! He stood like this for a few more moments before stepping up the steps.

And it just so happened that Jiang Huan and Du Wenyuan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, happened to sort out the case files of yesterday's preliminary trial to be sent to him.

The three of them met at the gate in this way.

Seeing people coming over, the two hurriedly saluted: "See the prince's ......"

Lu Jue raised his hand to stop: "No need, let's go in and talk about it." ”

After thanking him, Jiang Huan looked up and saw that Lu Jue was not wearing a cloak, only wearing a home robe, standing there trembling with his shoulders crossed, really pitiful!

Lu Jue is not in good health, afraid of cold and heat, and he will naturally suffer from freezing all the way.

Jiang Huan didn't say a word, took off his cloak, draped it on his body, and asked with concern: "What's the matter, what's going on today, haven't you seen it?" Dressed so thinly, aren't you afraid of catching a cold? ”

Lu Jue shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and said as he walked inside: "How to say it, it's hard to say!" Not to mention that, how about the first trial of the case? ”

Du Wenyuan is not a person who has no eyesight, so he is not in a hurry to talk about the case at this time. Instead, he directly ordered his subordinates to fetch a stove, a thick blanket, and hot ginger soup.

Without a while, the three of them sat in the room that used to be reserved for Lu Jue to take a nap and rest.

This house is not big, only a single bed, a bookshelf full of case files and books, and two chairs and a square table.

Who would have thought that the beautiful Lord Lu would have been so tired that he would fall asleep here without even having time to change his clothes.

Therefore, fame and merit are not in vain, and it can be seen from this how dedicated he is to the things in his duties!

At this time, he sat cross-legged on the couch with a blanket, and the bowl of ginger soup that he had drunk was put aside.

And he held the stove in one hand and the file of the preliminary examination in the other hand and looked through them carefully, listening to their reports.

"King Luo's case only needs to clarify the relationship, according to the distance and distance, and deal with it as appropriate. What is difficult to do is that His Majesty the Emperor thinks that the tiger talisman of the second of the four tokens and the brand of Taizong are privately hidden by him, and he orders us to ask for the whereabouts no matter what means are used! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has, do we want to use strong means? It can be seen that Du Wen is far from remembering Lu Jue's promotion, at least he didn't give him a knife in Lu Jue's back at this time, and he is still doing his best for him.

Lu Jue closed the file and raised his head to look at him: "What did the emperor say?" ”

"This is the emperor's secret fold." After speaking, Jiang Huan stood up, took out a book of folds from his arms, and hesitated for a moment before handing it over.

Lu Jue took it, opened it and looked at it, and only one sentence was written on it: 'The rise and fall of the token relationship, no matter what means are used, you must ask for your whereabouts'. After reading these words, I saw that there were a few small words written below, 'After the matter is finished, Webster, except for the prince'!

Except for the words prince, it was like a knife that cut Lu Jue's heart!

Jiang Huan was afraid that Lu Jue would be affected by this, so he stared intently at the change in his expression, he didn't seem to be affected at all, and he was still as quiet as a pond.

After a long time, he frowned and said: "Your Highness, the minister has already discussed with Lord Shangshu, and decided to conduct the second trial after the tenth day of the first month. The first trial started in a hurry, some things were not finalized, and everything needed to be decided before the start of the second trial! ”

"I see." Lu Jue held the fold tightly in his hand, looked at the ground with a slightly dull and confused gaze, and said astringently: "Just do what you have to do!" Didn't the emperor want to implicate Webster? When the time comes, just pass the person to you and find a reason to detain the person! ”

Jiang Huan couldn't help frowning when he heard this, he was simply making trouble for himself by doing it in such an unorganized way. Although his subordinates now hold the power of the army, they are all scattered outside, and it is difficult to gather for a while, but Wei Han has 20,000 city guards under him, and it is good to succeed once, if there is an accident, it will be a disaster!

Before he could speak, Du Wen was far away and spoke first: "Doesn't Your Highness feel that something is wrong?" Webster has been entrenched in the court for many years, and King Luo has not been able to get rid of him when he is alive. Can only one case be implicated? If this step is wrong and he is forced to rebel, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not even have a chance to resist! ”

Lu Jue snorted like a broken jar: "Since you already plan to take this step, what else do you have to hesitate about!" The more you think about it, the more you worry. Anyway, in the end, either he dies or I die, so there is no need to look ahead! ”

"The ...... of the palace" Du Wenyuan just said a word, but Jiang Huan stopped him.

"There are still many days before the second trial, and we will discuss it in the next few days." Leaning on the square table with his elbows, he leaned towards Du Wenyuan slightly, and lowered his voice: "Don't you see, your lordship, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has something in his heart, with his current state, maybe we didn't take anything to heart just now, just say whatever we want." It's better to go back and rest first. Another day, we're discussing, how about it? ”

Du Wenyuan glanced at Lu Jue, who lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking, sighed, turned around and whispered, "Then that's it!" I left first, knowing that my father wanted his own life every day, and no one felt good. You and Your Highness were once colleagues, and if you persuade them, they may listen to you. ”

Jiang Huan nodded and said, "Okay, my lord doesn't have to resign with His Highness, and the lower official will send you out!" ”

"Okay." glanced back at Lu Jue again, opened his mouth, but didn't say a word. sighed and went out with Jiang Huan.

After sending Du Wenyuan away, Jiang Huan returned to the house.

Lu Jue actually lay on the couch, one leg on the pedal, one leg bent on the bed, and the fold was covered on his face. It's completely like a young man who is angry at home and hides and sulks.

Throwing everything away, at his age, he should be a carefree young man without scruples.

And at this time, he had no choice but to carry the hatred of his predecessors, and the killing of this generation!

Jiang Huan sighed helplessly, walked over, sat beside him, and took away the fold covering his face.

looked like a good brother who cared about his younger brother: "It's hard for me to say anything about this kind of thing, don't you have any points in your heart?" That Du Wenyuan said that it was close, but it was only the grace of your promotion. There are some things to think about in front of him, after all, he is a mercenary wallgrass! After saying that, he also intimately covered him with a blanket that had been thrown aside.

After listening to him, Lu Jue opened his eyes and glanced at him, turned over, and lay on his side, with a lifeless look: "It's too tiring to wear a fake mask on your face all day long!" I feel so tired of being alive right now! ”

Jiang Huan frowned and looked at him: "What stupid things are you talking about, how sad it would be if your sister and the crown princess heard this!" Do you know ......?"

"I know!" Lu Jue sat upright: "Leaving aside the childhood/childhood when I didn't know anything, I didn't have a day of worry and caution." First of all, in order to save his life, he endured all his hobbies. And now I have finally survived, although I have not lived my life as I want, I am very content to have water with me. But how did I realize today that I couldn't even make my own decisions about where I could sleep? ”

"So, you're running away from home?" After listening to him, Jiang Huan summed up one point, that is, they, who used to be known as the white-faced Yama, are now in the high position of His Royal Highness the Prince, ran away from home because of a trivial matter.

Lu Jue, who was poked directly in his heart, showed a slight embarrassment, and said angrily: "Ah! What's wrong, can't you? ”

It was rare to see him like this, Jiang Huan couldn't help laughing.

Lu Jue looked at him with a frown: "What are you laughing at?" ”

"Nothing, nothing, I just didn't expect you to have such a side." Jiang Huan stopped laughing, but he couldn't help but feel distressed, Lu Jue could show his true temperament unreservedly in front of him, and he could only say that he had regarded him as a family member. Why didn't he feel moved by this emotion, and raised his hand to pat him on the shoulder: "Xiao Jue, I really didn't expect that one day, we could sit together like this and talk about our hearts." I didn't expect that we would become a family! ”

"I didn't expect it either, because, I used to be very annoying to you!"

"Is it because you know that I am the eyeliner arranged by the prince next to you?"

Lu Jue nodded, and shook his head again: "There is a little reason, and more often, I don't want to be swayed!" ”

"I can understand that." Jiang Huan lowered his hand, turned his head to look at him and asked, "I know, what we said just now, you didn't listen to it, let's talk about it!" Do you have any plans for this case? ”

Lu Jue shrugged his shoulders, crossed his legs, and looked at Jiang Huan pitifully: "I have a little count in my heart about this matter, but I am just worried about where I will live tonight?" Brother-in-law, I'll go to your house, so we can have a candle night talk! ”

Jiang Huan was taken aback by his words, coughed with a strange expression, and hurriedly asked: "What, you really plan not to return at night, don't say that the crown princess is not easy to explain, even your sister can't say it!" ”

Lu Jue looked at him as if he had found something: "I live in your house, not my sister, what are you nervous about?" Do you want to do something to my sister behind my back! ”

"You, don't think nonsense, it's Hong'er there!" Jiang Huan changed the topic a little stiffly.

After Lu Jue sighed, he lay down again, lay down in a big word, and sighed heavily: "The world is so big, there is no place for me!" ”

Jiang Huan didn't know what to say for a while, so he looked at him quietly.

After a moment, he raised his hand and touched his arm and said, "Go back!" Where she is, it's home, right? ”

And Lu Jue looked like he had no way to survive: "I don't understand this, it's hateful to hate, I don't know if it's because I drank too much last night, and my mind is not clear." I even told her that I don't have to wait for me, I won't go back! ”

Jiang Huan twisted his eyebrows and looked at Lu Jue incredulously: "You have drunk!" ”

"Is it that incredible? I'm just in a bad mood, and I don't want the water to worry about it! He was incredible, and Lu Jue felt even more incredible, how did he go back: "Although I was drunk at the time, I was not confused, I was obviously in Mingyuan at the time, and when I woke up, I was at home!" ”

In this way, Jiang Huan understood more and smiled: "It's not that I ran away from home, but I don't dare to go back!" ”

Obviously, Lu Jue was not in the mood to fight with him anymore, held his chin, and said very sadly: "Shui'er must think that I am with Wei Yuan'er now." Maybe how to be sad? I didn't do anything, I feel sorry for her! If it is really for such a trivial matter, I will not return at night, how safe is my conscience! Brother-in-law, you married two concubines, tell me how you please your wife? Help me figure out a way to go back! ”

Jiang Huan was really embarrassed, and glanced at him: "Speaking of you, why did you come to me, you did something wrong, and you found a way to solve it yourself, and you still pointed to the king of heaven?" ”

"That's right!" Suddenly, Lu Jue stood up abruptly and looked at Jiang Huan with burning eyes: "You are really my brother-in-law, thank you." He picked up his cloak and put it on his body.

Jiang Huan also stood up, looked puzzled and asked happily for him, "Do you have a way?" What's the solution? ”

"I'm going to go to the palace, and the cloak will be returned to you tomorrow!" Before Jiang Huan could speak, he was already gone.
