In the next two days, Wu Shan found that his third son had not gone out for half a step.

Every day at home, I play chess, read poetry, and play with thrush.

On the third day, it was the day when the third prince was scheduled to tell everyone the so-called shocking secret on the Wangjiang Tower.

When Wu Shan helped his third son prepare his clothes and help him put them on his body, he asked with a hint of worry: "Third son, can't you not go to Wangjiang Tower today?" ”

"I can't."

"The horse that Qi Fang said when he came back two days ago and almost injured you, could someone do it on purpose?"

Lu Shikang put on his clothes and smiled slightly at this time, "Won't you go out from now on?" ”

"Who's the secret of the hell is Childe going to say?"

"You know it today."

Wu Shan didn't ask any more, knowing that he couldn't ask anything, so he still waited for Qi Fang to come back and tell himself.

Lu Shikang and Qi Fang came to the gate of the Lu Mansion, Wang Lu was waiting in front of the carriage, and when he saw his third son coming out, he asked, "Do you want to change the road to Wangjiang Tower today?" ”

"Yes."

Wang Lu then changed his usual route, first going north, he planned to turn left at Ningchi Street to the west, from the sparsely populated Pingxi Street on the west side of the suburbs to the south, to Linjiang Road and then turn east to Wangjiang Tower.

.

When Lu Shikang's master and servant were heading south on Ningchi Street in the west of the city, Qingzhi was wearing the gray-brown groom costume he bought a few days ago, wearing a handkerchief, and driving the carriage southward from the road in front of his house.

As in those days, she smeared a trace of indigo above her lips.

When he was hurrying forward, he heard a voice beside him: "Little brother, how to get to Wangjiang Tower?" ”

She looked to the place, but saw a man to the left of her carriage who was driving the same carriage as her, looking at her.

The carriage he drove was a black wooden carriage, and the body of the sedan chair was exquisitely carved and low-key luxurious.

"Go straight to the south, turn west on the bank of the river, turn west after turning west, and walk forward for hundreds of zhang to see a three-story small building, with a sign of Wangjiang Tower."

"Thank you, little brother." The groom said as he hurried south.

Behind the carriage were two horses, both of whom were sitting tall men, who looked to be in their twenties.

The curtain of the sedan chair drawn behind the groom in front lifted to reveal the face of a young man with white jade and flawlessness. His eyes looked at the Jiangbei City passing by on the way, and said to the horseman in front of him: "This Jiangbei City is really a prosperous place, the state of poetry. ”

"Childe, what do you think is better here than the capital?" A man on a horse behind asked the son in the sedan chair.

The white jade immaculate son replied: "The capital is filled with the air of intrigue, and the gentle atmosphere of poetry and prosperity is permeated here. If there is a place that can make people feel at ease, it is still this place. ”

The man on horseback who asked just now nodded, "What Childe said is very true." ”

As they spoke, they overtook Qingzhi's carriage and moved forward.

"I don't know who it is, looking at that son's appearance is very noble, and the tone of the person who talks to him behind him is unusually respectful, this son must not be an ordinary person." Qingzhi looked at the sedan chair and two horses that were getting farther and farther in front of him, and thought to himself.

Before she knew it, she had arrived at the edge of Wangjiang Tower, and she first drove the carriage to the woods where she and her third sister had dismounted nine days ago, where many carriages and horses and grooms had gathered.

After putting the carriage away, she walked into the Wangjiang Tower.

Outside the building, you can hear the noise inside, and when you enter the hall on the first floor, you can see that there are already many people sitting in the hall. There are also quite a few standing around.

Most of the people sitting are people of noble status, and most of the people standing are accompanying small people or ordinary people who come to see the excitement.

was worried that Lu Shikang would be recognized by Lu Shikang in the crowd, so she went up to the second floor.

Since most of the people were crowded into the hall on the first floor, the rooms on the second floor were very empty.

She went to a small room on the second floor, went to the window, and looked down at the hall on the first floor.

She saw Lu Shikang, who was conspicuous in the crowd, drinking tea in a group of rich boys, and it seemed that he was chatting with them.

Gongzi, who was sitting next to Lu Shikang, asked, "Gongzi Lu, when are you going to tell us the secret you know?" ”

"Three moments." She heard Lu Shikang answer.

Thinking that most of the content he was going to answer was related to herself, she didn't know what to do. But now, it seems too late to do anything.

In that case, let's break the can.

Anyway, his life experience is always exposed.

At the moment, it is nothing more than a little early, nothing more than a change from active to passive.

On the second floor, she could see that people were constantly pouring in from the outside, almost blocking the door of Wangjiang Tower, so it was a little difficult for people from outside to enter.

When she looked down, she saw that the white jade immaculate son who had just asked her for directions was also sitting around four or five tables away from Lu Shikang's table, drinking tea with great interest, while looking at Lu Shikang and the group of rich sons who surrounded him. Behind him were two men on horseback, who sat beside him.

To Qingzhi's surprise, she also saw the shadow of her third sister in the hall, she was sitting with her group of sisters at the moment, the third sister seemed to be a little absent-minded today, her worried face was obviously different from the joyful faces of her sisters.

She stared at the third sister for a few moments, and found that four or five of the third sister's sisters had their eyes drifting towards Lu Shikang from time to time, which made her guess that how many of these people were in love with Lu Shikang, and how many of them were secretly in love with him?

Qingzhi smiled secretly in his heart: "The good sons of good families don't like it, but they like the most unreliable gentlemen in the entire Jiangbei City, and these women are really blind." ”

But that's not what she's thinking. The only thing she cares about now is whether the news that Lu Shikang is going to announce is related to herself.

When she went back yesterday, she heard her mother Guo Shi say the news that Liu Gui was afraid of the crime and surrendered, or perhaps, what Lu Shikang wanted to tell everyone was the secret of that Lord Liu? After all, Lord Liu and Lord Lu, as important officials in Jiangbei City, usually have a lot of contacts, and it is possible for Lu Shikang to know some secrets of the Liu family.

While she was thinking wildly, she saw a group of people coming in at the door of the restaurant.

She was very familiar with this group of people, and she found them near Lu Mansion in the days when she was investigating Lu Shikang's whereabouts.

Are these people here to protect Lu Shikang's own servants of the Lu family? Still is?

She didn't dare to judge.

Her eyes were fixed on the men, lest she would not find them in the crowd without seeing them for a moment.

I saw that after those people came in, they did not stay in the crowd, but went straight up the stairs on the second floor.

At this time, a trace of doubt flashed in her heart, if these people were used by the Lu Mansion to protect Lu Shikang, shouldn't they stand on the first floor closer to him?

Soon, the group disappeared down the stairs and had probably reached the second floor.

She looked around the windows of the other second-floor rooms from the window she was in, and saw that several windows were open, and there were people standing in front of the windows, all overlooking the hall on the first floor.

Most people have a look of watching a good show.

A moment later, two people stood in front of an otherwise empty window. She recognized two of them. The others must have been because the windows were too small to fit them all.

The two faces peeking out of the window were completely different from those of the other people standing at the window, and they exuded a serious and cautious expression.

Aoeda saw that they were looking around at their surroundings. When they looked around the first floor and began to look around the second floor, Aoeda hurriedly looked away from the eyes that were looking at them, and instead looked towards the first floor, pretending that he was also waiting to see the good show of the day.

The rest of his eyes kept paying attention to the window where the two men were.

She felt a person retreat from the window in the back room, leaving only one person standing at the window.

Her eyes pretended to glance over there, and she saw something that made her heart tremble.

But the man standing at the window was holding an arrow, and the arrow was facing the direction of Lu Shikang.
