Chapter 62 The death of Lu Huaixiang

At this time, Song Jingchen appeared and became Liu Lu Huaixiang's best confidant, and the relationship between the two gradually deepened in the various small things that happened in Du Mansion, and finally the two were commensurate with brother and sister.

In Lu Huaixiang's heart, except for her deceased mother, Song Jingchen became the only person who cared about her.

In her heart, Song Jingchen is not just a brother and sister, her sister has something she likes, and the first thing Lu Huaixiang thought of was Song Jingchen.

Lu Huaixiang lived in a lakeside hut with her mother when she was a child, and now occasionally teaches Lu Huaixiang to sing poetry and dance.

In Du Fuzhong, whenever she watched Song Jingchen teach Du Jianling from a distance outside the window, she listened very attentively and was deeply attracted by Song Jingchen's talent.

Song Jingchen was also very interested in Lu Huaixiang at the beginning, after all, the experiences of the two were very similar, they came from ordinary families, and the people he cared about the most were persecuted to death.

At that time, Song Jingchen did not have such a big shelf as now, and his mind was not as deep as now.

Slowly, Song Jingchen looked down on Lu Huaixiang in his heart, after all, Lu Huaixiang was the most humble subordinate in Du Mansion at that time, and Song Jingchen's identity became better step by step with the passage of time.

Song Jingchen was recommended by Lord Du to enter the court as an official, although he only sat up from a small county order, but he carried the big tree of the Du family, so there was naturally no need to say much about his career.

He only went through the motions in the appointment of the county order, and was transferred to the capital, and Song Jingchen was privately arranged by Lord Du in the military department.

Of course, Song Jingchen can achieve the position of prime minister today, not only by Lord Du, but also by his own talent.

After entering the court as an official, he repeatedly put forward good political opinions to the emperor, and every time the emperor adopted Song Jingchen's suggestions, he could achieve good results.

Two years after entering the dynasty, Song Jingchen's status was about to catch up with Lu Guozheng at that time.

When he sat down in the military department, Song Jingchen used his private power to deal with the bullies who killed his parents, and dragged them to the Wumen Gate to be beheaded for a crime at will, and the corpses are still hanging on the mountain five miles away from the Wumen.

Later, Lu Guozheng saw that Song Jingchen's position in Lord Du's heart had a tendency to catch up with him, so he thought carefully in front of Lord Du and said bad things about Song Jingchen behind his back.

Song Jingchen occasionally makes Lord Du dissatisfied, although he has a deep hatred for his parents' blood and is a little unscrupulous, but in terms of the major rights and wrongs of state affairs, Song Jingchen still thinks more about the suffering of the people.

So many times, Song Jingchen's advice to the emperor would be different from that of Lord Du, but the emperor would use Song Jingchen's advice almost every time.

This made Master Du very unhappy, a down-and-out scholar who was picked up by himself, did not listen to his own arrangements when he was a great minister, and there were occasional disagreements between master and apprentice.

Lu Guozheng saw all these in his eyes, and said bad things about Song Jingchen in front of Master Du.

Song Jingchen began to feel more and more that Lord Du and himself were not all the way, and at that time, Lord Du was already ranked as prime minister, but he often used his power for personal gain, regardless of the life and death of the people.

These all made Song Jingchen feel unhappy, looking at the disasters of the Celestial Empire for many years, he asked the officials of the capital to donate money for disaster relief, because the Du family was asked to donate the most, and Lord Du was very unhappy in his heart.

Something like this happens occasionally.

There are fewer and fewer contacts between Song Jingchen and Lord Du, and Lord Du will only discuss many things with Lu Guozheng, so that Song Jingchen will be put aside.

After all, Lord Du is the prime minister of the dynasty, the elder of the three dynasties of the Du family, and his power in the DPRK is prominent, and in order to protect himself, Song Jingchen also had to get some news from Lord Du.

At this time, Song Jingchen thought of Lu Huaixiang, at that time, Lu Huaixiang had been in Du Mansion for a long time, and the people in Du Mansion thought that Lu Huaixiang was unrelated and unreasonable, just a wild child that Lu Guozheng picked up from the downtown area.

No one would doubt Lu Huaixiang at that time, thinking of this, Song Jingchen decided to use Lu Huaixiang.

Lu Huaixiang admired and liked Song Jingchen very much, and she basically agreed unconditionally to any request made by Song Jingchen.

This time, Song Jingchen asked Lu Huaixiang to go to the hall to make a plan for Lord Du's help.

At that time, the relationship between Fanbang and the Celestial Empire was very tense, and both sides had heavy troops at the border passes.

As the prime minister of the Celestial Empire, Lord Du was appointed by the emperor to solve the crisis between Fanbang and the Celestial Empire, and the emperor did not want to have a war with Fanbang.

The two countries are at war, and it is the people of Dawn who suffer, Song Jingchen and the emperor have the same thoughts in their hearts, but this Lord Du does not seem to want to see that there is nothing to do between Fanbang and the Celestial Empire.

Song Jingchen got the news that Lord Du wanted to start a war between Fanbang and the Celestial Empire, but Lord Du's plan was only discussed with Lu Guozheng, and Song Jingchen didn't know the details.

There was no way, so Song Jingchen asked Lu Huaixiang to listen to the conversation between Master Du and Lu Guozheng.

On this day, it was snowing heavily, and Lu Guo was in a hurry to come to Lord Du to discuss the war between the Celestial Empire and Fanbang.

Lu Huaixiang was originally sending tea to Du Yuyan, but on the way back, she happened to pass by Lord Du's study, and heard that Lu Guo was discussing the matter with Lord Du.

Lu Huaixiang looked around, and when she saw that there was no one around, she hid under the window and eavesdropped on the conversation between the two in the study.

In normal times, Lu Huaixiang didn't dare to do this at all, she was originally very peaceful, and she didn't dare to do anything that violated Lord Du in the slightest, but this time she went out for Song Jingchen, and she didn't want to think so much.

When Lu Huaixiang was fascinated by what he heard, the housekeeper appeared.

The housekeeper was about to deliver a letter to Master Du in the study, and when he came to the outside of the study, he saw Lu Huaixiang eavesdropping outside the door.

So she was caught red-handed, and the housekeeper grabbed Lu Huaixiang to the study for interrogation by Lord Du.

What Lord Du and Lu Guozheng discussed was a confidential matter, which could not be heard by outsiders, and it was a matter of family life.

But unfortunately, these things were heard by Lu Huaixiang outside the window.

Lu Huaixiang was carried to the study by the housekeeper and slammed in front of Master Du and Lu Guozheng, and the housekeeper spoke, "Master, this slut is eavesdropping on your conversation outside the window, I don't know how long I have been eavesdropping, I found that she listened very attentively when I entered the door just now." ”

"You're going to do it now, tell me who told you to do it, and what did you hear?"

Facing Lord Du's questioning, Lu Huaixiang was very nervous, her legs trembled, she only hoped that Lu Guozheng, who was present, could say a few words for her, but Lu Guozheng didn't.

Lu Guozheng scolded her more severely, "Tell me, what have you heard?" ”

"No...... I didn't hear anything......" Lu Huaixiang said with a trembling voice.

"Master, what she said is definitely not the truth, there must be a ghost in my heart, otherwise I wouldn't be so nervous." The housekeeper looked at Lu Huaixiang who was sitting on the ground.

"Since you don't want to tell the truth, then don't blame me for being ruthless." Master Du said sharply.

"What are you going to do with her?" Lu Guozheng asked Lord Du in front of him.

"I don't know what she knows now, but our plan must not be leaked, otherwise it will not only be wasted, but it will also lead to death, and this woman will not be able to stay."

Lu Huaixiang couldn't believe that such words came from her biological father first, her face was full of despair, and the tears that she had endured for a long time immediately burst out of her eyes.

Lu Guozheng's heart is nothing more important than his official position, even if it is his own daughter, and this woman is still a daughter who cannot be mentioned to outsiders.

Lu Huaixiang saw that Lord Du and Lu Guozheng were killing him, so he opened his mouth and pleaded, "Master, just spare me, I didn't hear anything, I just passed by here." ”

"Find two people to take her to the back mountain, only give her a very thin dress, and don't give her food, she should not survive tomorrow morning in this weather." Master Du said with a smile.

"It's a good idea, it doesn't arouse suspicion from others, so it's just done." Kunissa continued.

Lord Du wants to freeze Lu Huaixiang to death, it has been snowing all day today, and the weather is extremely cold, not to mention wearing only a thin dress, even if he is fully armed in the wild at night, it will be nine deaths, not to mention that Lu Huaixiang is such a weak woman.

No matter how Lu Huaixiang begged, Master Du and Lu Guozheng always ignored it, and after a while, the housekeeper brought two family members to take Lu Huaixiang out.

Lu Huaixiang was stripped of her padded jacket, but she was only wearing a thin piece of clothing and was thrown to the back mountain by her family.

The housekeeper not only took off the padded jacket that Lu Huaixiang was wearing, but also took off the shoes on her feet in order to prevent her from escaping.

Thrown into the snow, the family left, Lu Huaixiang stepped on the snow nearly two feet deep with her bare feet, and walked towards Song Jingchen's mansion, at this time she still wanted to tell Song Jingchen the news she heard from Master Du.

It's okay, she is a woman after all, in this snowy weather, she only wore a thin shirt, and she didn't take a few steps before she began to obey her legs and feet, and slowly the whole person began to freeze.

Song Jingchen was also waiting for the news of Lu Huaixiang at home, because the two had already made an appointment to meet in advance, but this Lu Huaixiang never appeared.

Lu Huaixiang died like this, but it was only twenty-eight years old, and it was the flowering season, and even Lu Guozheng did not have the slightest regret.

After Lu Huaixiang's death, Master Du and Lu Guozheng's plan ultimately failed to succeed, because Song Jingchen was quick to think and saw through the two of them.

After Lu Huaixiang died, just like that, the body lay quietly in the ice and snow for a few days, and she was not found, nor did Song Jingchen.

In Dufu, Lu Huaixiang is gone, it seems that everyone is not surprised, and the days in the mansion are still the same as usual, without the slightest difference.

It's just that Lu Siguan is still desperately looking for Lu Huaixiang, his childhood playmate, his only friend, but he has been looking for a long time, and only then did he find out about Lu Huaixiang in a farmhouse at the border.

Lu Siguan braved the heavy snow and was desperately rushing to the capital......
