The Lu family was favored by the king, and after investigation, it was to be reused, and the black armor guard was very clear about this.

Check and investigate, we must pay attention to the means, the Lu family is not a criminal after all, and simple and rude will not work.

"What else did you find?"

"My lord, no."

"Time is tight, and the top is urgent, so everyone has to work harder."

"Yes!"

…………

The ancestral tomb of the Lu family is on a hill, not far from Xuanwu City, before going to the capital, Lu Jian has renovated it, and it is quite magnificent.

At the foot of the mountain, the old housekeeper of the Lu family carried a food box and went up the mountain alone.

"Uncle, how far is Xuanwu City?" Two passers-by, a man and a woman, both carrying small burdens, looked like they were in a hurry.

The old butler squinted his eyes and looked at it, as if his eyesight was weak, and he was a little struggling, "Ah, it's not far away, it's only half an hour's foot." ”

"Thank you, sir." A woman a year seems to be a husband and wife, and the man arches his hands, is very polite, and should be a scholar.

The old butler waved his hand, "Nothing." ”

The scholar was a little curious, "Uncle, I see that you are going up the mountain?" ”

"Ah~~~" The old housekeeper carried the food box, "Yes, go up the mountain to worship the ancestors." ”

"Incense candle ingots in a food box? See you for the first time! The woman sneered, and finally spoke.

"Hugh is rude!" The scholar scolded, and hurriedly threw his hand at the old housekeeper, "Don't blame the old man, my lady is rude." ”

"Who said I had ingots in this box? The food box is naturally filled with food and drink. The old butler was a little impatient, "It's not early, our son-in-law is still waiting, I have to go first." ”

"Don't blame, don't blame, don't blame!" The scholar was still apologizing, and from time to time he reprimanded the lady beside him.

The old butler walked eagerly, and after a short time there was only a small point left.

The woman abducted the scholar, "It's all gone." ”

The scholar no longer apologized, but instead said with a puzzled expression, "Could it be that there are still living people in this Lu family's ancestral grave?" ”

"Just go along and have a look?" Women are not ordinary people, lifting their bodies and walking in the mountains as if they were walking on flat ground.

The man dressed as a scholar has better light skills, and there is almost no sound when he lands.

The two of them fell behind the old butler, and at first they followed far away, but later found that the old butler's ears were not very bright, and he never looked back, so they followed closer.

…………

In the old house of the Lu family, a few subordinates are lazy in the yard, but they are lazy in their hands, and they are not idle.

"The old butler is going up the mountain again?"

"But no, the old housekeeper is old and confused, and he always thinks that the fourth son is still on the mountain, isn't it, he went again."

"Hey, you said you'd go once in the next two days, can the old housekeeper's body stand it?"

"I think it's okay, it's tough."

"You said you were fine this year ago, why are you suddenly confused?"

"When you're older, you can understand what you usually say, but sometimes you're a little confused, and it's the same when you're old."

"Hey, I see, it's idle, it's less to take care of, and if you don't use your brain, it's easy to break."

"It's not good, the eldest prince is here, hide quickly!"

"Hey, don't worry, the eldest prince has a good heart, so he can't bear to punish us."

"But the eldest lady is also there!"

"What? Quick, get up and work, I see if any of you dare to be lazy. ”

Not long after, Lu Ren and Wei Jing both came to the courtyard.

"Husband, the city lord is looking for you to drink again?"

"Hey, isn't this another small case solved, there's no way to do it."

"It's worth drinking even the little things?" Wei Jing was a little dissatisfied, and didn't forget to remind Lu Ren, "Husband, don't forget, be careful." ”

"Madame, don't worry, for the husband understands."

On the roof, a figure crouched on his stomach, listening to the sounds inside and out.

He had a pen and paper in his hand, and from time to time he licked the brush and wrote a few strokes, all of which were circled and forked, which was certainly not illiterate, but should be some kind of mark.

…………

The ancestral tomb of the Lu family is not as simple as a small earthen bag, it is made of carved stone bricks, with a door and a roof, and the space inside is not small, which is a big tomb.

When I got closer, the stone gate was not sealed, leaving a small crack that was one person wide, and I was not afraid of tomb robbers.

The old butler was familiar with the road and soon came to the door.

He put the food box and looked at it for a while, but no one came out, and then he arched his hand and shouted inside, "Fourth son, the old slave brought your favorite secret chicken legs, and if you don't eat it, it will be cold!" ”

"Fourth son, don't be angry, you're angry again!"

"Childe! The blind subordinate has been executed by the old slave addition, so you can dissipate your anger and come out and eat some. ”

"Fourth son......" The old housekeeper shouted for a long time, but no one answered, he shook his head helplessly, "I will leave the food at the door, you can eat as much as you want, don't be hungry." ”

"Just put it in the food box after eating, and the old slave will clean it up the day after tomorrow." Then the old butler took up another food box and went away, which he had brought with him the last time he came.

This time, the man and the woman did not follow the old butler again, and they waited for the old butler to leave before they appeared.

The two glanced at each other, very tacitly, one checked the food box, and the other directly entered the ancestral tomb of the Lu family.

There is a gap wide for one person in the stone gate, and it is not difficult to go in and investigate.

A moment later, the woman also entered the stone door, and it was clear at a glance that there were only a dozen sarcophagi, and there were scholars standing in the middle of the inspection.

"The food box is full of good wine and food, the heat preservation is good, or is it hot, how are you here?"

"It's all checked, and there's no living person here." The scholar shook his head and pointed to the sarcophagus, "The seal has not been opened for a long time, and there can be no living people inside."

Do you think the old housekeeper of the Lu family is old and confused?

Isn't the fourth son of their family Lu Zhi, that person is still in the capital. ”

"It's possible, he's old, so let's go back and report it truthfully first, and see what the adults say."

The scholar nodded, "That's all it can be." ”

…………

But he said that the old housekeeper was walking down the mountain with his legs and feet, although he never looked back, but he did not delay at all to enjoy the scenery behind him.

"Not following?" The old butler muttered, carefully putting away a small round mirror the size of a palm, "It's easy to use, but it has to be backed by light, or it's easy to expose." ”

Who could it be? The Lu family's friends in the capital? Enemy? Or is it the black armor guard sent by the king of Yue? …… The old housekeeper thought a lot, "I knew that someone would come to check, the fourth son had already made arrangements, and with such a son, the old man could retire with peace of mind." ”

Thinking about it, the old housekeeper stopped and scratched his cheeks incomprehensibly, "I have to go up the mountain every other day, and sometimes I have to pretend to be crazy and stupid, can such a day really be regarded as a pension?" The old man won't be deceived by the fourth son, right? ”
