41. Purpose of Transaction
Therefore, Lu Lingshan was even more convinced of the idea that his daughter was killed, and Lu Lingshan entered the palace to find the emperor several times for this matter. Lu Lingshan, who couldn't get an answer from the emperor at all, resigned in anger and went into hiding.
It's just that Lu Lingshan has heard the name and surname of the woman in front of him. knows that although Xie Yaoguang looks young, his scheming methods are not inferior to those old foxes in the court, and it can even be said that he is even better. In addition, she is now King Shou's staff, who can guarantee whether she was ordered by King Shou to test the Lu family.
Seeing Lu Lingshan, he instantly understood his thoughts. Xie Yaoguang looked at Lu Lingshan with a smile, only to see that the look in his eyes was cloudy again, and he raised his eyes and glanced at himself: "My Lu family is not involved in disputes, but when it comes to the safety and death of the family, I will still fight for it." ”
Xie Yaoguang smiled gently when he heard this. She knew very well that in fact, the Lu family was not a seriously injured and dying lion, he was more like a dormant and sleeping beast, although he was at the end of the family, he was always the best at protecting himself.
Lu Lingshan was able to bring the Lu family's Emperor Wenwen and Emperor Ming for two generations and support His Majesty to ascend the throne today, so he naturally had his means. Even if it is declining for a while, it is only on the surface. If the Lu family has no ability, how can they have their current status.
Just as Xie Yaoguang holds most of the secrets that no one knows, turning these secrets into a blade can take people's lives, and he can use these secrets to make deals with people to achieve his desired goals.
This is Xie Yaoguang's means.
Similarly, Lu Lingshan also knows very well that desire is like an abyss, endless, especially making deals with the devil, and it is impossible to recover.
The game between the two parties is a heart-to-heart move.
Xie Yaoguang raised his eyes, tilted his lips and smiled: "The old lady is really restrained, and you have contributed a lot to the Lu family's ability to get to where it is today." It's no wonder that Emperor Ming trusts you. ”
Hearing the meaning of Xie Yaoguang's words, Lu Lingshan had a trace of nostalgia in his eyes. Emperor Ming's reign under the rule of the country can really be said to be a peaceful and prosperous era, His Majesty succeeded to the throne, although there is no big mistake, but compared with Emperor Ming, it is much inferior.
And at the beginning, he was secretly ordered by the first emperor to help His Majesty ascend basically in order to complete the king's trust, and for this reason, he also paid his favorite daughter. It's a pity that in the end, it's still .......
"Say whatever you want to say, the old man never likes to beat around the bush with people!"
Seeing him get straight to the point, Xie Yaoguang was also happy for a while. After all, when talking to someone like Lu Lingshan, the more you cover up him, the more suspicious he will be of you.
"The old lady is a cheerful person. How dare the younger generation go around the bend with you? Xie Yaoguang lifted his eyelids, tilted his lips and said slowly: "You should know better than me how the first queen is in health, after she gave birth to the crown prince, her body was weak and it was okay to give birth." But some people think that the first queen is too much of an eyesore. ”
Lu Lingshan frowned and stood up, walked to the window and stood with his hands in his hands, and said in a loud tone: "How do you know this?"
"Since I am determined to get involved in the court, I will naturally take advantage of the situation to investigate some secret old news." Xie Yaoguang and Lu Lingshan stood together, their eyes fell on the pedestrian-like street, and the hawkers' shouts were endless. ”
Just four words are enough to make Lu Lingshan stunned. He has been married to His Majesty for many years, and he is very affectionate, but when he is about to give birth, His Majesty took him to the palace to escape the summer, and was assassinated on the way to save the emperor, and he was stabbed for the emperor and gave birth prematurely.
But it didn't take long...... Lu died suddenly. Lu Lingshan did not suspect that his daughter was killed, and after searching for the palace to no avail, and seeking the emperor could not get an answer, Lu Lingshan was disheartened and decided to stay away from the government to live for a long time.
However, now Xie Yaoguang's words have rekindled the anger in Lu Lingshan's heart, her daughter was indeed killed.
"There are all kinds of snakes and scorpions in the harem, and the last way to kill people invisibly is to do it on medicine. And the first queen was already lingering on the sickbed, so what would be strange about her sudden death? At that time, it was the Rong family who was serving by the queen's side," she looked back at Lu Lingshan, and smiled gracefully.
Seeing Lu Lingshan at the end of his eyes, he couldn't help but clench his fists under the wide-sleeved robe, and his body trembled. Xie Yaoguang knew that his goal was half achieved, and smiled slightly.
"Miss Xie, don't think that the old man will help King Shou just because you told me this, right? Don't forget that the crown prince is the grandson of the old man. Lu Lingshan glanced at Xie Yaoguang and reprimanded coldly.
"Of course not." Seeing that he was no longer vigilant, Xie Yaoguang raised his lips and chuckled: "It's just that I can't bear to let you find the truth for many years, old lady, and I happened to get this news, so I thought it would be better to dedicate it to you." ”
The words are in the right place. The mystery in the words is for Lu Lingshan to figure out one or two by himself, and the news provided by Xie Yaoguang has exploded in Lu Lingshan's heart.
Rong was just raising his grandson to adulthood, but he didn't expect her to be the culprit who killed his daughter.
Thinking about it like this, Lu Lingshan couldn't help but have a bold idea in his heart, the death of his daughter was not only Rong's calculation, but also the emperor's acquiescence, and Rong guessed the emperor's thoughts.
So he planned to poison the order, and then took this opportunity to seize the power to raise the prince. Because the Rong family knew that after the emperor promised the Yuan, the crown prince would never be easily deposed. If the crown prince ascends the throne, she will be able to take advantage of the situation, and even the Rong family will be able to ascend to heaven.
"What else do you want to do? Except for the prince, the old man can help you with the rest. ”
"Give up Rong. The most important thing is to hope that the Lu family will resign and go into hiding. Xie Yaoguang turned his eyes to look at the veins of light sprinkled by the sky, "I know you may not agree with my idea. But you must know better than me that the Lu family has been targeted by King Shou, and the emperor is also waiting for your attitude. Don't you think that getting out in time at this time is the best way for you and the Lu family to retreat. ”
Lu Lingshan was stunned when he heard this. The Lu family's current situation is basically supported by the emperor and because of the crown prince, the Lu family has given the Lu family some face, but the second room of the Lu family is deeply involved in the salt land case, and the Lu family's branch is greedy for ink.
Your Majesty is not embarrassed now, but he is waiting for the attitude of the Lu family, I am afraid that His Majesty's mind has begun to wonder whether these things are all dictated by the prince.
Now only if the Lu family resigns and goes into hiding, His Majesty will not be suspicious of the prince. But doing so also means that the prince will lose the help of his grandfather's family.
Xie Yaoguang raised his lips and looked at Lu Lingshan's solemn face, slightly scowling.
"You are indeed very intelligent. But the old man still has a word to advise you, being smart is not a bad thing, but be careful of being mistaken by being smart. Lu Lingshan glanced at her deeply, and promised in a deep voice: "Today's matter, except for you and my old husband, I will never let others know about it." ”
Hearing this, Xie Yaoguang sent Lu Lingshan away with a smile on his face, just as the sun was setting on Lu Lingshan, his back was full of vicissitudes, and he watched him staggering downstairs. I couldn't help but sigh deeply.
"It's still too big a blow for him."
