"Li Gongzi, please take a seat," the woman in white sat on the main seat and stretched out her hand to ask.

Four tables are placed on either side of the hall, and a red carpet is laid out in the back for guests to sit. At this time, although there were chairs and other seating tools, formal occasions still required kneeling.

Li Rong and Dong Xuanjing walked into the house, looked for the two seats on the left, and sat there respectfully.

Zheng Guanlan's anger did not subside, but in the face of the woman in white, he didn't dare to make a mistake, and obediently sat on the right side in the direction of Li Rong.

"Innate Grandmaster!" When Li Rong saw the woman in white for the first time, he felt the aura she exuded, and he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart, "Jingzhong is worthy of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and I have seen the second grandmaster-level master in just two or three months." ”

This is also the reason why Li Rong uncharacteristically followed the woman in white and sat down respectfully. The experience of each Grandmaster is a legend and represents a whole new level of martial arts.

The woman in white combed her hair in a high bun, wore a light blue narrow sleeve top, a white scarf on her shoulders, and an embroidered red skirt swaying to the ground, sitting behind the desk, looking noble and elegant.

"Concubine Jinglun Heavenly Palace, Lu Ziluan has seen Captain Li." The woman in white said with a slight spit on her lips.

The corners of Zheng Guanlan's eyes moved, his anger flashed, and he quickly regained his calm.

According to today's etiquette, when a woman marries and obeys her husband, her surname must be changed to her husband's surname. For example, if Lu Ziluan marries into the Zheng family, he should call himself Zheng Lu and not be named.

Zheng Guanlan was born in the Zheng family of Xingyang, where etiquette is the most, and after listening to Lu Ziluan's words, he was a little dissatisfied, and of course he was helpless.

Li Rong's eyes were like electricity, he saw Zheng Guanlan's expression, and he thought uneasily, no wonder the Zheng family in Xingyang has withered since they entered the Tang Dynasty, and they can't see the situation clearly. How stupid it is for even a grandmaster-level master to push him out of the door because of some complicated etiquette.

Having said that, how could Lu Ziluan, as a master at the level of an innate grandmaster, be constrained by this, and not even mention his name, which was an insult to the dignity of the grandmaster.

What kind of character Lu Ziluan is, perceiving Zheng Guanlan's look, his heart couldn't help but darken, the Zheng family has fallen, and his prestige is far less than before, Zheng Guanlan is still entangled in the title is not in line with etiquette, he doesn't know his prestige, etiquette must be supported by strength, the reason why the five surnames and seven families became wealthy families is because they fought with the Hu people during the Northern and Southern Dynasties and maintained the tradition of the Han people, not the so-called bullshit etiquette.

"Shaolin Puhui Zen Master's disciple Li Rong has seen Madame!" Li Rong solemnly folded his fists and saluted.

Jinglun Heavenly Palace and Shaolin Temple are both Taoist and Buddhist holy places, and each holds the ox ears of the two factions of Taoism and Buddhism in the north, and their status is equal, and etiquette is indispensable. The other party not only showed his identity as a grandmaster, but also showed the inheritance of the sect, and made it clear that he was talking with the identity of the rivers and lakes, Li Rong could not be rude, and then oppressed people as an official.

"What do you mean by Li Gongzi here?" Lu Ziluan asked.

"By the order of the Queen Mother, find out the reason why Lord Zheng hanged himself, and there is no other meaning." Li Rong replied solemnly, "Madame should have been present at the time, and I don't know why Lord Zheng embarked on the road of no return. ”

"My husband did hang himself, and I was meditating in the backyard, and when I got a report from the servant, I went into the study only to find that he was dead." Lu Ziluan said bitterly.

Lu Ziluan, as Zheng Lianshan's wife and a grandmaster-level master, did not take a good look at her husband and committed suicide, which is a great irony. There were already some problems in her husband and wife relationship with Zheng Lianshan, but after this accident, the Zheng family had even more opinions, and almost one-sided blame Lu Ziluan.

The grandmaster is also a human being, and he also has seven emotions and six desires, which is inevitably tied by red dust.

"Did you behave abnormally in the days before your husband's death?" Li Rong asked.

"Lian Shan has been grumpy a lot these days, I thought it was due to a bad career and a lot of affairs, so I didn't pay much attention to it, I didn't expect this to happen." Lu Ziluan said.

Now Li Rong has some spectrum in his heart, and it is estimated that Lu Ziluan in front of him is an innate grandmaster, which is a lot of pressure for Zheng Lianshan, and it is inevitable that there will be some problems.

"Has Lord Zheng's temper always been like this?" Li Rong then asked.

"No, he has always had a good temper before, but he has changed a lot since half a year ago, and he often loses his temper for no reason." Lu Ziluan said.

Zheng Lianshan and her baby relatives since childhood, Xingyang Zheng and Youzhou Lu married a lot, but Lu Ziluan had to meet a master when he was a child, and he was quite talented, entered the Jinglun Heavenly Palace to practice, and still married Zheng Lianshan as an adult, and the two respected each other like guests and had a harmonious relationship.

"Since the temper changed half a year ago," Li Rong muttered, "what happened?" ”

"In the past six months, his body has weakened a lot, and he often goes in and out of the brothel of the Qinglou." Lu Ziluan, "Every time the concubine persuades him, he is silent. ”

Lu Ziluan is a grandmaster-level master, and the subtle changes in her husband's body can't hide from her eyes.

"Lord Zheng's personal servant is available?" Li Rong asked.

"**Fang, the concubine has asked him to wait in the courtyard," Lu Ziluan said, "Let Yishan come in," instructed the maid beside him.

After a dozen breaths, a middle-aged man in a green shirt walked in and bowed to Lu Ziluan.

"Yi Fang, this is Master Li Rongli, the captain of the Thousand Cavalry, he wants to ask you something," Lu Ziluan said.

"Meet Master Li," Fang bowed to Li Rongshi.

"You are Lord Zheng's personal entourage?" Li Rong asked.

"The villain has been following Master Zheng since he was a child for more than ten years." **Fang Huidao.

"What is the abnormality of Lord Zheng in the past six months, in addition to the official office and home, where do you often go to?" Li Rong asked.

"Master Zheng often goes to the brothel of the Qinglou, and he originally went there for entertainment, but he didn't indulge in it," Fang replied.

"He's obsessed with that woman?" Li Rong asked, "How often do you go to that Qinglou?" ”

"It shouldn't be, the place where Master Zheng goes is not fixed, it shouldn't be that he is obsessed with someone," Fang replied.

"Madam, I would like to take the liberty of asking, does Lord Zheng usually have enough money?" Li Rong asked.

"The surname is Li, are you suspecting that my Zheng family has no money?" Zheng Guanlan couldn't help but say beside him.

"The concubine still has some savings in the mansion," Lu Ziluan's gaze swept over Zheng Guanlan and said.

"Do you usually go to the Qinglou with him? The last Qinglou that Lord Zheng went to before he died, which one did he often go to? Li Rong asked.

"Master Zheng doesn't let the little ones follow, at least for the past six months. The last thing he went to before he died was a brothel called Yichun Yuan in Gentle Fang, which he went to often. Fang smiled bitterly.

He is just a small servant, how can he control Zheng Lianshan.

"Thank you Mrs. Lu for your help, I'll go back next time," Li Rong stood up and said.

After all the questions were asked, Li Rong didn't want to stay here longer, and was going to go back to see what Dong Xuanjing had taken from the study, and if there was no accident, he would go back to the camp and return to Lord Changshi.

"The concubine will not be sent to the adult." Lu Ziluan said.

"Mrs. Bulao will send you off," Li Rong turned around and walked out of the lobby, beckoning people out of the Zheng Mansion.

"Uncle, why did you listen to this surnamed Li and tell him so much, do you want to make our Zheng family embarrassed?" Zheng Guanlan said.

"Is the Zheng family noble? Can it be higher than the power in the hands of Wu Zetian, or the Qiushui Qinyin Sword in the hands of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment? Lu Ziluan said faintly.

"We haven't broken any law?" Zheng Guanlan was stunned for a moment and replied.

"Do you think Wu Zetian needs something like the law to cure people's sins?" Lu Ziluan said, "There is another reason for Lianshan's matter, there are people behind it who are making it bad, I don't know why the purpose is for the time being, it is not a good thing to offend Li Rong at this time." As soon as he finds out something, it will have a great impact on the Zheng family, and I will personally visit Li Shangshu and Master Di Renjie to find out. Bring my word to your father. ”

Zheng Guanlan was dumbfounded when he heard this, and he didn't say anything for a long time, but Lu Ziluan had already left.

"Zheng Lianshan committed suicide?" The old man who was talking to Zheng Lianshan in Yichun Courtyard that day was slightly stunned when he heard the news.

"Yes," said the man in black standing in front of the old man respectfully.

"Got it, you go down first!" The old man said.

The man in black turned and walked away.

"Lord Snake Spirit, Zheng Lianshan committed suicide." The old man came to the inner roof and saw the snake spirit Li Ruoxue Road.

"It's a pity, there are not many people who can get in touch with the top secret military information of the Ministry of War, and it's a bit of a waste for this chess piece to be scrapped." Li Ruoxue said.

"I don't know that Zheng Lianshan actually has the courage to hang himself?" The old man smiled bitterly and said, "There are really not many people like him, and even fewer can be used by me." ”

"Don't worry about Ma Lao, our plan is going well, the king of Yue has already prepared, the soldiers, horses, grain and grass are all ready, as long as the operation here is successful, thousands of elite horsemen will go straight to Luoyang with lightning speed, and the big thing can be decided." Li Ruoxue said.

"It was rumored in the previous formation that Wu Zetian was going to sacrifice Luoshui, and he wanted to convene the governors of all prefectures, assassinate the history and the clan, and his relatives to enter Beijing, she must have a secret plan, and her precautions will not be relaxed, under the strong city of Luoyang, it is difficult for thousands of cavalry to succeed." Ma Jiayun sighed.

It turned out that the one who tempted and persecuted Zheng Lianshan was the former Yue Wangfu East Pavilion sacrificial wine Ma Jiayun, a snake spirit.
