Lu Jinping said: "Then what is my mother going to do? ”

"Be at ease, and wait, when Mother comes to see you again, it will be when she takes you out. In the future, you will help your mother in her career. ”

Lu Jinping saw that Shangguan Wan'er was full of confidence, so he stopped talking, he knew that no matter what he said in this situation, Shangguan Wan'er would not listen, not to mention that he was now controlled by Empress Wei, which made his mother jealous, and he couldn't help but listen to Empress Wei's idea of joining forces. He has become an important chess piece used by Empress Wei to restrain her mother Shangguan Wan'er.

Of course, he also saw that his mother, Shangguan Wan'er, did not seem to object to joining forces with Empress Wei to deal with Li Longji. She was placed under house arrest by Empress Wei, which greatly increased her weight in making this decision.

Shangguan Wan'er asked Lu Jinping about his experience over the years, and Lu Jinping just said it lightly. Shangguan Wan'er still kept shedding tears when she listened, and she deeply blamed herself for the hardships that the child had endured.

After chatting for a long time, Shangguan Wan'er got up and prepared to go back, and told Lu Jinping not to worry, so he stayed here and waited for his mother to pick him up.

After Shangguan Wan'er left, Ning Yan appeared, still expressionless, and told him to let him go back to the original courtyard with him.

On the way back, Lu Jinping said lightly: "Congratulations to the girl with eyes for catching me, making this great achievement, and the future will be unlimited." ”

Ning Yan didn't say anything, as if he didn't hear Lu Jinping's words, just walked forward quietly.

Lu Jinping continued: "You have to follow the right person, as the saying goes, one soldier will be a bear, and one will be a nest." If you follow a big stupid master, even if you are famous for your martial arts, I am afraid that there will be no good fruit to eat. You've got to think about it. ”

This time he stood still, and slowly turned to look at him, those deep eyes were like the deepest mystery in the universe. After a moment, he said slowly: "Do you mean something?" ”

Lu Jinping said: "Celebrities don't do dark things, and heroes don't rub sand in their eyes." At this point, you can figure out if you can understand my words. That's right. If you are the one who wants to capture me and imprison me, why are you so kind to me? I believe that pot of bitter wine is your treasure, and you are reluctant to give it to anyone else, but you gave it to me. I don't believe it's just you doing it. ”

The gaze is still unwavering: "Should I call you Lord Li, or Lord Lu?" ”

As soon as she heard this, Lu Jinping knew that she already knew her life experience, so she smiled and said, "It's still Lord Lu!" ”

Ning Yan nodded and said, "Actually, our Empress Wei really wants to join forces with your mother to do a career, and your mother must have told you this." Out of sincerity, Empress Wei asked me to bring you this wine to eat. Do you know that this wine is a treasure in the world, I tried my best to protect Queen Wei, and many times I saved the day, and Queen Wei rewarded me with a little. However, Empress Wei asked me to turn all the wine into longevity pills and let you take them to enhance your physique and prolong your life. ”

"This longevity pill is very precious. It was refined by a Fang Wai Heavenly Master in a previous life, and it has the effect of prolonging life. The Taoist elder lived to be more than 300 years old. This is well documented. Such a precious elixir, Empress Wei gave it to you, which shows Empress Wei's sincerity. ”

Lu Jinping said: "This longevity pill actually has such an effect? ”

"There is no falsehood. Not only does it prolong life, but it also strengthens the body. I believe that the main reason for your strength now is that you can feel it yourself. ”

Lu Jinping nodded and said, "What you said is the truth. I don't know if I can live longer, but my strength is indeed much greater than before, and my skills seem to be much faster, at least faster than others. Huh"

"Yes, and I know that you have many other abilities, so I hope you will help your mother and the queen to join forces to achieve great things, and when the time comes, you will be very successful."

Lu Jinping shrugged his shoulders: "This is not interesting, because you locked me up here, even if I have the heart to help you, but I am also powerless, so I can only sit and watch the excitement." ”

Gaze said, "You're only here temporarily, and I'll naturally tell you when I need to use you." ”

"Okay, then I'll wait and serve the court."

The reason why Lu Jinping said this was because he thought that only by leaving here first and joining their team could he make a difference and save his mother Shangguan Wan'er. Otherwise, he can only watch him go to his perdition, and he must do something about it, instead of sitting idly by.

――――――――――――

A few days after that.

Lu Jinping still stayed quietly in this small courtyard. Ning Yan was also in it to accompany him, but he didn't talk to him much, but fortunately, there was Lu Niang by his side, although the two of them couldn't come to the real thing, but they could also talk to me and me, and it was better to talk than nothing.

A few days later, many palace maids and eunuchs suddenly came into their small courtyard, and began to hang white prayer flags in front of and behind the house, and distributed filial piety clothes to everyone, and announced with a straight face that they were not allowed to laugh or sing.

After asking, I learned that it turned out that Tang Zhongzong Li Xian had died, and now Empress Wei is presiding over the government.

A few days later, news came that Li Chongmao, the fourth son of Tang Zhongzong Li Xian, inherited the throne and changed the yuan to Tang Long.

A few more days passed.

Lu Jinping was in the small courtyard suddenly came a carriage, extremely luxuriously decorated, stopped in the courtyard, a middle-aged woman accompanied by Ning Yan knocked on Lu Jinping's door.

When the woman saw Lu Jinping, tears flowed down her eyes, and she knelt on the ground and kowtowed with her skirt choked.

As soon as he saw this woman, Lu Jinping understood what was going on. Because this woman is the female official who came to deliver the decree when the queen pardoned his sins after Yunzi's brother Yun Vulture was killed in a traffic accident last time.

The old woman fell to the ground, choked up and said, "Young master, the old body is the palace maid Zhu Niang who sent you out of the palace back then." I used to serve Zhaorong Niangniang. Young master, the old man put you in the dung cart that day, I don't know life and death, and I have been nervous in my heart. Today, I can see the peace of the young master, and the old body can let go of my heart. blasphemed the young master on the day, knelt down and asked for sins today, and asked the young master to give sin. ”

Keep kowtowing and crying

Lu Jinping listened to her words, and sure enough, he confirmed what he thought. It turns out that this is really the case, it seems that it was this old woman named Zhu Niang, who saw herself when she first passed the decree, so she told her mother Shangguan Wan'er the news, which led to a series of things later.

This old woman is Shangguan Wan'er's personal maid Zhu Niang. The Zhaorong Niangniang mentioned in Zhu Niang's mouth is Shangguan Wan'er, because Shangguan Wan'er was canonized as Zhaorong after Tang Zhongzong succeeded to the throne. In fact, it was just to thank her for her contribution to the imperial court, and she couldn't serve as an official in the government and the opposition yamen, and at the same time, it was also to use her power in the court to give her a name.

But after discovering the whereabouts of Shangguan Wan'er's illegitimate son, Empress Wei also knew about it after reporting it to Shangguan Wan'er. That means that either this Zhu Niang told Empress Wei the news at the same time, or Wu Zetian still has other hidden works by Empress Wei's side.

But Lu Jinping believes that the former is more likely, because when Empress Wei passed the decree, she sent Zhu Niang to deliver the decree, which shows that Empress Wei also relied on this Zhu Niang. Maybe she told Empress Wei about it.

Lu Jinping hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, and said: "The old man doesn't have to be like this, if you hadn't put me safely in the dung truck and left the palace safely, I would have died a long time ago. ”

When Zhu Niang heard this, she was both happy and frightened, tears kept flowing, and she looked up and down with Lu Jinping's hands: "The young master looks like a talent, just like Prince Zhang Huai back then, you can know it at a glance." It's really an eye. ”

Prince Zhang Huai is Wu Zetian's second son Li Xian, that is, Lu Jinping's father, who was demoted to Bazhou and later died in Bazhou.

Zhu Niang wept for a long time and said, "Okay now, the wind and waves have passed, and I am here to pick you up on the orders of the emperor and Empress and Zhaorong Niangniang." Today is a big day, get in the car and follow me. ”

"Can you tell me what's wrong?"

"I can't say a word clearly, you will naturally know after a while, it's not beautiful to say it, anyway, it's a big happy event, let's go."

So Lu Jinping followed Zhu Niang out and got into the carriage. But Ning Yan didn't get into the car, still standing in white clothes, watching them go away.

This time, the car did not lower the curtain, and Lu Jinping saw the surrounding scenery clearly. After Zhu Niang's introduction, he knew that the place he was in was actually the palace in Chang'an.

Along the way, Zhu Niang kept asking him about his experience over the years, and Lu Jinping chose to say it in a relaxed word, but it also made Zhu Niang cry and lament.

Lu Jinping had a knot in his heart that he couldn't unravel, and when there was no one around now, he said to his wife: "Zhu Niang, do you know who arrested me here?" ”

Zhu Niang was stunned for a moment, the smile on her face looked a little embarrassed, and then she smiled and said: "Young master, it's the fault of the old body, it shouldn't be said to be a mistake, it's the selfishness of the old body, please forgive the young master." ”

"What the hell is going on? You make it clear to me, don't let me be a fool. ”

"Okay, that's right, after I recognized you as Zhaorong Niangniang's child, I reported to Niangniang when I came back. At that time, the relationship between the mother and the queen was not as close as it is now, and the queen mother always wanted to form an alliance with Zhaorong Niangniang. So he called me and told me to persuade my mother. I thought that the queen mother was a great person, and if we Zhaorong Niangniang could join forces with the queen mother, we would definitely be able to achieve a career, so I selfishly told the queen mother about it. ”

"The queen sent someone to protect you, but there was a misunderstanding, so something went wrong, in fact, the queen mother is a good intention, I know that the young master has been frightened a lot, it is all the fault of the old body, if the young master wants to blame, then there is an old body to bear it."

After that, Zhu Niang wanted to kneel in the carport. (To be continued.) )
