Chapter 57: Arson

Lu Yan and Zhao Chengfeng had already made up their minds to oppose Qin, and after secretly planning all night, the two of them went their separate ways as soon as it was dawn the next day.

Because this kind of anti-Qin thing is to be discovered, it is the matter of exterminating the Nine Clans, so neither of them dares to tell anyone, but secretly let some retainers clean up the softness, not hoping to take away all the family property accumulated by the family, as long as they bring the softness to maintain a life for a while.

Lu Yan's identity was sensitive, and she didn't dare to go out easily, so she handed over the matter of planning an escape route to Zhao Chengfeng, and she stayed at home and dismissed some servants one after another on the grounds that her family was in distress.

These people are all people who have been doing things in the mansion for a long time, Lu Yan knows that if she leaves, King Qin will definitely not let them go, and according to Hu Hai's temper, she will kill them all, Lu Yan couldn't bear it, so he thought about secretly dismissing everyone and letting them fend for themselves.

Lu Yan thought that his actions were careful enough, but he still alarmed the people in the palace, and at noon Hu Hai sent Zhao Gao over, saying that it was to visit the orphan daughter of the hero Lu Ming, and he faintly regarded his father as a dead man in his words.

Lu Yan swallowed his anger and received the holy decree, led Zhao Gao to the main hall to sit down, and personally served him a cup of tea.

Zhao Gao was not in a hurry at all when he picked up the tea bowl, and his long and narrow eyes were always squinting left and right, as if he wanted to see their general's mansion clearly.

Lu Yan stepped forward and blocked Zhao Gao's vision, blocking the other party's line of sight, and said: "Your Majesty is grateful to our Lu family's beloved courtiers, I don't know what Your Majesty has to ask your father-in-law to bring some rewards today?" Please make a public announcement. ”

Zhao Gao laughed twice, and said in a weird manner: "Your Majesty didn't explain anything, just thinking that after General Lu Ming had such a thing, the Lu family would only rely on the eldest lady to support her, and a daughter's family is not good in the end, Your Majesty dotes on the eldest lady, so I want to point you out a marriage, I don't know if the eldest lady has any ideas." ”

Lu Yan thought to himself quietly, and faintly guessed a little bit of the reason why King Qin was so anxious to marry him, it was nothing more than that he couldn't kill himself for the time being, so he had to appease himself first, and by the way, he also appeased his father's cronies and friends in the court.

Lu Yan was reluctant to let Zhao Gao out of his heart, but when he thought that he was about to leave here with Zhao Chengfeng and his subordinates, he couldn't make trouble at this juncture, so he deliberately showed a bitter and hateful expression, and said: "My Lu family is different from the past, but Your Majesty still hasn't forgotten that we still have to marry your courtiers, which is really Your Majesty's kindness, how can your courtiers be unwilling, everything is up to Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Gao was surprised that today's Lu Yan would be so good at talking, and took advantage of the tea to take a good look at the other party, but he didn't find a trace of strangeness, thinking that Lu Ming is almost no different from a dead man now, as soon as the big tree in charge falls, Lu Yan is just a yellow-haired girl, seeing that His Majesty no longer has a good impression of their family, of course they don't dare to be as bold as before.

The more he thought about it, the more it made sense, Zhao Gao couldn't help but straighten his waist in front of Lu Yan, and relaxed his vigilance against him.

After drinking the tea, Zhao Gao stood up, Lu Yan also stood up, the two looked at each other, Zhao Gao chuckled, and said: "Since the eldest lady has expressed her attitude, the slave will go back to the palace to give news to Your Majesty, and here the slave will congratulate the eldest lady first." ”

"Well said, well said." Lu Yan owed a salute and finally sent Zhao Gao out.

As soon as Zhao Gao left, a short and fat figure came out of the dark room in the main hall, looking at Lu Yan's back with a worried face, who was it not a nurse.

"Miss, the subordinates have already sent seven or eight out of ten, do you want to dismiss the rest?" The nurse knows that the Lu family is in trouble now, but she doesn't understand why the young lady wants to dismiss so many subordinates in one day, she has worked in the Lu family for so many years, and she still knows a little bit about the strength of the Lu family.

Lu Yan stood with his hands on the door frame, looked up at the boxy blue sky above his head, turned his back to the nurse, and said lightly: "Send, all of them are dismissed, and when everyone is sent away, the nurse will take some more money from the account room and leave." ”

When the nurse heard that the young lady was going to drive her away, tears were instantly forced out of her eyes, and she choked up and asked Lu Yan why, Lu Yan had bitterness in her heart, but there was no way to tell anyone about this bitterness, so she could only scold the nurse with a cold face for no reason, which could be regarded as a clean break with her relatives The last trace of affection.

The nurse is kind and affectionate to her, since she can't take her away, then don't hurt her anymore.

At night, the whole house was instantly quiet, because there was no one to light the lamp, so the huge house was pitch black, which was very scary.

Lu Yan was wearing a black tights, wrapped in a cloak of the same color, and walked out of the darkness quietly with a rickety oil lamp in her hand, she was not afraid in the face of boundlessness, and she was looking for that kind of dark place to walk, and while walking, all the lights around her were lit, and after half an hour, the lights of the entire house were lit by her, and a fluorescent embellishment in the darkness was even brighter and more lively than when people were usually there.

After finally lighting up the lights, Lu Yan had unconsciously cried tears all over her face, and finally took a good look at this house full of memories, as if she wanted to remember it in her mind forever, she didn't want to close her eyes, but thinking that she still had important things to do, even if she was reluctant, she still made a decision.

Tie the burden that had been prepared a long time ago, Lu Yan turned around and threw the oil lamp in his hand back mercilessly, the lamp happened to fall on the hanging curtain, and the fire burned instantly, plus there were too many oil lamps in the room, the fire burned very quickly, and when Lu Yan stepped out of the door, the fire inside had already burned inside.

Turning over and jumping over the high wall, Lu Yan quickly found the horse he had prepared before, sat on the horse in a neat posture, tightened the horse's head, and the horse neighed and spread its hooves and ran up, the girl's long hair was blown up in the summer night wind, and it continued to dance behind her, with the blazing fire behind her, there was a broken beauty.
