Chapter Twenty-Six: Shocking News

readx;

Lu Ziqian got out of the carriage and quietly knocked on the back door. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info He looked left and right, but he didn't find anything unusual, thinking about himself like a thief, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, "This time my family has to be sneaky, this descendant of the Lu family is really sad." He laughed at himself, a little emotional, but also a little helpless. However, this is his own choice, and he can't blame others.

It was he who decided to join Li Chengqian and act as a black-hearted strategist under Li Chengqian to help Li Tai obtain the position of crown prince.

Now that I think about it, I regret it a little, I am young and vigorous, I boast that I am like a god, I can control everything, and I control Li Chengqian, but it turns out that I really underestimate the heroes of the world. Li Chengqian is an egoist, but his domineering personality is definitely not something that can be controlled at will. Now there is another Hou Junji, Hou Junji seems to be brave and unscrupulous, and his behavior is reckless, but every move is step by step, full of deceit in the fierceness, and deep scheming. Soon after becoming Li Chengqian's confidant, he immediately pointed the finger at himself, if he hadn't tried his best to cover it up, and with Li Chengqian's help, maybe he would have been a corpse abandoned in the wilderness today.

Lu Ziqian's current situation is very embarrassing, Hou Junji has squeezed out his status as the first strategist, his status is not as good as before, and he should not have risked coming back, but he received a secret report from his great-grandfather Lu Zijian, saying that Zheng Tianfan, the head of the Zheng family in Xingyang, came to Chang'an, hoping that he could come to persuade Zheng Tianfan together, so that Zheng Tianfan could understand that Li Chengqian could not be violated, fully support Li Tai, and casually meet his fiancΓ©e Zheng Zhipei to report Li Chengqian's situation.

As a last resort, Lu Ziqian found an excuse to go out on business and come secretly at night.

In the darkness, Du He's eyes flashed, brighter than the stars in the sky, and there was a strange look in his eyes, and he said in his heart: "It's him, Lu Ziqian ......"

Duhe doesn't like political struggles very much, but he has entered this circle, and there are many things that he can't help himself.

"Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles" is a golden saying in "The Art of War".

This phrase can be used in any field, military, shopping malls, love scenes, and of course, politics.

Li Chengqian is Du He's enemy, and it is a terrible thing to know nothing about the enemy. Du He looked down on Li Chengqian, and did not let Wu Meiniang pay attention to his movements, but when friends in the political arena talked to each other, anything involving Li Chengqian would make him involuntarily pay attention to one or two.

It was in this situation that Lu Ziqian came into Du He's eyes.

Lu Ziqian is a member of the Lu family, and he did not hide anything. Du He felt strange at that time, the gate valve family paid the most attention to the best, and all the talents they cultivated were through the interests of the family, even if they were in a high position, they would put the interests of the family first, followed by loyalty to Li Shimin, the emperor.

It is also because of this that Li Shimin will be like a fish in his throat for the family gate. Later generations evaluated Wu Zetian's greatest merit in his reign, also because she swept away the monopoly of the clan gatekeeper.

Lu Ziqian, as a direct member of the Lu family, turned his back on the interests of the family It is really unbelievable.

For this reason, Du Ho specially asked Tayue Liuxiang to investigate Lu Ziqian, and finally came to a conclusion. Lu Ziqian was a maverick, disagreed with the Lu family, left the Lu family in a bad mood, and became Li Chengqian's staff. Under Li Chengqian's command, Lu Ziqian repeatedly devised schemes, did a lot of things for Li Chengqian, and won Li Chengqian's trust.

Du He couldn't tell for a while whether Lu Ziqian was really obedient or fake. This person's heart is unpredictable, he Duhe is not a god, he has never had contact with Lu Ziqian, it is impossible for him to see through the secret in the other party's heart. At that time, he didn't care much, as long as Li Chengqian didn't provoke him, he couldn't provoke a prince, although this prince was only temporary, but the prince was a prince after all.

Now that Lu Ziqian is going home so secretly, it is self-evident who he wants in his heart.

Du He smiled secretly: "What kind of dangerous chess piece is beside him, Li Chengqian is afraid that it will be a lot of disasters." ”

Thinking so, he no longer hesitated and glanced at the wall.

The courtyard of the Lu family is large, and the gate wall is four meters high, and there is nothing to climb, but this height is really nothing for Du He, and he easily climbed the wall and jumped into it.

The Lu family covers a vast area, and I don't know where the man in black took the "Lanting Collection Preface".

Ever since he got the news of Wu Meiniang, he has been staring at Fang Ruyu, and saw with his own eyes that Fang Ruyu handed over the "Lanting Collection Preface" to a middle-aged man dressed in black, and then followed all the way to Lu Mansion.

It is undoubtedly a fool's dream for a middle-aged man to want to get rid of Du He, but after he entered the Lu Mansion, Du He lost his trace of the middle-aged man during the time he went around to the backyard.

"Forget it, it's better to follow Lu Ziqian, he must have come to see Lu Zijian...... Except for Lu Zijian, no one in this Lu Mansion has dared to steal the "Lanting Collection Preface". ”

Du He didn't know the reason at the moment, he just thought that the "Lanting Collection Preface" was stolen by the Lu family.

Lu Ziqian walked quickly in the criss-crossed corridors, and Du He moved forward lightly at the top of the corridor, without making a sound. Turn left and right, and soon came to the reception hall where Lu Zijian, Cui Zhongping, and Zheng Tianfan were.

Du He stood on the roof, and as far as his eyes could see, the middle-aged man in black who had taken the "Orchid Pavilion Collection Preface" from Fang Ruyu's hand was walking outside the house under the guidance of a servant dressed as a housekeeper. There was no longer a box in his hand with the "Orchid Pavilion Collection Preface". There is no doubt that the middle-aged man has already handed over the "Orchid Pavilion Collection Preface" to someone.

At this time, Lu Ziqian had already walked into the main hall.

Du He looked around again, and found that all the servants around him were surrounded by the family, and no one approached the hall, and his heart was very peaceful. Presumably, the rules of this Lu Mansion are very strict, and ordinary people are not allowed to get half a step close to the main hall without being communicated, which can also avoid the danger of being discovered by people when he eavesdrops.

He stood upside down at the eaves of the main hall in the posture of hanging golden hooks upside down, similar to this The hall does not have doors and windows, but for ventilation, most of them will open several rectangular vents under the eaves to ensure air circulation in the hall.

Sure enough, under the eaves not far from him, there was light shining through the hall, which was the ventilation of the main hall.

Du He looked into the hall in the vent, and he didn't do this old job for a long time, and there was a faint feeling of excitement in his heart.

The gap in the vent is not large, but fortunately, you can see the general view of the main hall from the top down. The only thing that makes people unhappy is that all the people in the line of sight are flattened, which is in response to the sentence "Looking at people in the cracks of the door, looking at people flattened." ”

I saw that the three people in the main hall were gathered together, and an old man at the head was holding a scroll of calligraphy in his hand, marveling and admiring. The two middle-aged men on his left and right also looked at the poster intently, and their mouths couldn't help but let out a sound of admiration.

Du He's expression froze, and they were far away from each other, but he still saw that the calligraphy in the old man's hand was the lost "Lanting Collection Preface" in Yufu.

"If it's really their ......"

Du He thought in his heart, and saw Lu Ziqian walking closer at this time, and paying homage to the three people who were admiring the "Lanting Collection Preface", shouting "Great-grandfather, Uncle Cui, Uncle Zheng......"

Du He didn't recognize Lu Zijian, Cui Zhongping, and Zheng Tianfan, but he guessed one or two from Lu Ziqian's title: "Great-grandfather is undoubtedly the old birthday star of the Lu family, Lu Zijian, as for Uncle Cui and Uncle Zheng, they should be the Cui family and the Zheng family." can be so close to Lu Zijian, and his status should be unusual. The surname Cui is likely to be Cui Zhongping, and the surname Zheng is so handsome, it must be Zheng Tianfan. ”

The family with the five surnames is very famous in the Tang Dynasty, and Du He often hears news about them, and has an understanding of them, although he is not sure that he will guess correctly, but he is also seventy percent sure.

Regarding the arrival of his great-grandson, Lu Zijian let out a hearty laugh: "Come, Ziqian, you also come to appreciate the first line of books in the world." ”

"The Preface to the Orchid Pavilion Collection?" Lu Ziqian snorted, "Lanting Collection Preface" made Chang'an full of storms, how could he not know, and said in surprise: "The theft of "Lanting Collection Preface" is the masterpiece of great-grandfather. ”

Lu Zijian shook his head and said: "It was stolen by King Wei, but Grandpa Great-Grandpa wanted to see the style of the first book in the world, so he informed King Wei, and King Wei asked someone to send it." He has already given the "Lanting Collection Preface" to my Lu family. ”

Lu Ziqian exclaimed.

Du He also felt incredible, at this moment he knew that the original "Lanting Collection Preface" was actually stolen by Li Tai, which was a result he couldn't imagine. Immediately, he was secretly surprised in his heart, and only then did he understand why Li Tai's arrogant and rude big fat man could still recruit a lot of people who served to die.

How many people can do this heroic spirit that regards treasures as dung?

It seems that he has underestimated that fat man.

Also, Li Shimin's favorite son, how can he be a good good fat man?

"Such a generous handwriting......" Lu Ziqian's face was full of incredulity.

Lu Zijian smiled and put away the "Lanting Collection Preface", handed it to Zheng Tianfan and said, "Brother Zheng, what do you say?" ”

Zheng Tianfan pushed back the "Lanting Collection Preface" and said: "Zheng has nothing to say, from today on, I, Zheng Tianfan, on behalf of the Zheng family, the Lu family and the Cui family, will advance and retreat together, and fully support King Wei to seize the crown prince...... As for this "Lanting Collection Preface", let's return it. This thing is Li Shimin's favorite, and it should be dedicated to him by the King of Wei. King Wei did not hesitate to steal the "Lanting Collection Preface", presumably with this intention. ”

When Du He heard this, the scene of Zhiyong falling into the water in a coma with anger flashed in his mind, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, this Li Tai really didn't regard human life as human life.

After that, Lu Zijian asked Lu Ziqian to go to Zheng Shimei and Zheng Zhipei to catch up, and he talked to Cui Zhongping and Zheng Tianfan about discussing some ways to persuade the other two families to support Li Tai.

Du He listened carefully, but it had no practical significance.

Around the early hours of the morning, Cui Zhongping and Zheng Tianfan said goodbye and left.

Du He looked at the "Orchid Pavilion Collection Preface" and thought about how to steal it.

Lu Zijian sat in the hall for a while, and then asked someone to call Lu Ziqian and ask him about his current situation.

Lu Ziqian said mysteriously: "Great-grandfather, the crown prince has colluded with Hou Junji to secretly develop his strength, and I suspect that they may launch the Xuanwumen Revolution again." ”
