Chapter 84: Small words on red note, talking about business
Danfeng ten thousand leaves, osmanthus thousand points, Baili Mansion backyard. Zhongbo clasped his hands and leaned over to make a long gesture to the Heng of a hundred miles.
"Young master, whether you want to enter the palace or not, what you want to do, please think twice."
β¦β¦
And at this moment, on the third floor of the Drunken Moon Building, seeing Zhou Zhifu leaving, the last trace of the door was closed. Wei Sique was silent for a moment, then looked up hesitantly.
"You drove all my helpers away."
Lu Weizhen shouldn't have done it on purpose, not only separating and disintegrating people, judging from the current posture. If it is not handled properly, it is very likely to turn against each other.
"Your Majesty, put a long line to catch a big fish, do you understand this truth?"
"Your line isn't even twisted into a ball of rope, want to fish? The shrimp can't be trapped. β
Lu Weizhen didn't care, holding the teacup in his hand, and took a sip leisurely.
"Since the prince said that he could do it, you should believe him."
Lu Weizhen's trust in Zhou Zhifu was a little surprising to him. After thinking for a moment and thinking of what to do next, Wei Sique took the lead.
"My purpose is to prove whether you are a king or not. If the king is not the king, we should rise up and cut it down, and we will uphold the country. β
The young man in white was silent with dark eyes, he looked sideways at the girl, thoughtful, and asked instead.
"Then your lordship, even if we prove that you are not a king. Who do you think will succeed your majesty after his abdication? β
Wei Sique followed his line of sight and quickly glanced at the red-clothed girl sitting on the side, a complicated look flashed in her eyes.
If it is as Jiang Ruyu said, you are not a king. Then Duanmu Qingjia's heirs are not royal blood, so naturally they should not inherit the throne.
And Duanmu Qinghe, the king of Nan'an, is the younger brother of his mother, and he is not a royal family. Similarly, Duanmu Xihua's identity has also changed.
Lu Weizhen continued.
"The monarch has no way, and he can conquer. But the kingdom shall not be left without an owner. And the justice we seek also needs to be given by Mingjun. β
"Entrusted by the ancestors, my purpose is related to the case of the abolition of the crown prince's treason."
After Lu Weizhen finished saying this, he stretched out his finger from the sleeved robe hidden under the table and groped for the girl's hand.
Duanmu Yuhua was thinking about things absent-mindedly, and suddenly touched a strange warmth. She jerked her head and looked up at the young man's warm eyes.
"Just now I and the monarch have made it clear, so what is the purpose of the county lord?"
Since the two of them have made it clear to the point, she no longer hides it anymore, and she is right.
"My purpose is to investigate the Xie family's murder case. Now that the truth is in front of me, all I am asking for is justice. β
"And as seen in the documents, Your Majesty is the initiator of this case."
The girl's position was clear, which made Wei Sique breathe a sigh of relief. After all, it has been passed down from generation to generation, and she also has the same blood in her body as Duanmu Qingjia.
Just now, he was still worried about whether she would be unable to bear to do it because of her inseparable blood relatives, and even defected. Now it seems that I am thinking too much.
Suddenly thinking of something, Wei Sique's heart moved and asked.
"County lord, is this justice for the princess?"
The girl asked rhetorically, her eyes full of confusion.
"Not so."
"No, I thought the county lord was for Xie Jiusi, after all, he used to be your fiancΓ©."
"Heh, how is that possible. My marriage contract with him has long been counted, and besides, "He is a scumbag, and he personally told her that he has fallen in love with someone else, and please forget the past."
In this way, how can she be entangled again.
"Hmph."
The girl was puffing up, Wei Sique blinked her eyes and said puzzled.
"Huh?"
"I have nothing to do with Xie Jiusi."
After thinking about it, the girl added.
"I don't like him, this man is hateful."
"Oh."
Wei Sique nodded with satisfaction, and turned his head to look at the young man in white who was still leisurely and leisurely just now.
Lu Weizhen: "......"
Fortunately, at the moment he was wearing a mask and could not see the expression on his face. Fortunately, smiling has become a good camouflage gesture, and he doesn't show any horses.
just pushed the cup to the girl at the right time, coughed and quietly changed the topic.
"Actually, we still lack a few helpers."
Before he could finish speaking, Wei Sique opened his mouth to continue.
"Cui Kongling."
"Well, Marquis Zhaocheng is one of them."
"The witness of the battle of Jiangcheng committed suicide, the death of the eldest princess is mysterious, and the Cui family escaped from the world. For years, he has been pursuing the truth of the matter. β
"At the right time, the little marquis will be a sharp blade, but it is not yet the time for him to appear. What we need now is another helper, His Royal Highness King Jin. β
"Duanmusong and Zhou Zhifu are not the same people."
Both of them came from illustrious backgrounds, but both were tied by blood. Only by cutting off this fetters can we truly take a step towards righteousness.
Zhou Zhifu has already made a choice, but Duanmusong may not be on their side so easily, on the side of all the people in the world.
Wei Sique continued.
"If Duanmu Qingjia is not of royal blood, then his child naturally has no right to succeed to the throne. The ones who should really be in that seat should be the descendants of Emperor Yao. β
"You just mentioned the treason case of the deposed prince."
"Hmm."
According to Jiang Ruyu, the abolished princess Lu Huanting once gave birth to a child, and then disappeared. Now that all these years have passed, he should also be grown up. β
"What's more, since the deposed crown prince was originally framed, he should be the heir to the throne, right? In the same way, his child is the prince. β
The girl's good-looking brows furrowed, and after thinking for a while, she looked at the two people with solemn faces.
According to historical records, Emperor Yao was critically ill and summoned the abolished prince Duanmu Qinghui into the palace on the day he was critically ill. But he went crazy and slaughtered all the clan children who were in the palace at that time, and only His Majesty escaped. β
"That is to say, if Your Majesty is really not of royal blood. Now the only real royal bloodline is the prince who disappeared back then. β
"But after so many years, there is a vast sea of people, how to find the prince?"
"And, even if you find it. There is no other royal bloodline, how to prove that he is the child of the Duanmu family. β
"Besides, there is no mention of the abolition of the crown prince in the document, so the key to solving this matter is still on Your Majesty."
They seemed to be caught in an unsolvable problem, Wei Sique looked up at the young man in white and asked.
"Lu Xingyun asked you to investigate the case of the abolished prince, so there is nothing else to explain to you?"
He knows the gentleman's love for the deposed prince.
But regarding this case, the gentleman only gave him an order, that is, to find out. No other clues were mentioned.
Seeing Lu Weizhen shaking his head, Wei Sique frowned slightly, and didn't tell him anything, it shouldn't be. Oh, by the way, he suddenly thought of Lu Weizhen's true identity, he was Xie Jiusi, so ......
"Lu Xiang, you are not the Lu family."
The young man paused for a moment and nodded.
"Hmm."
Wei Sique understood, this is not surprising. In terms of acting, the Lu family's secrets are passed down from generation to generation within the family, and they will only be told to the next young master, or several patriarchs.
As for the rest, even if they are disciples of the lineage, they can't be told because of the family rules.
He continued.
"I always felt that the Lu family must know something, and even participated in it. After all, Lu Huanting is Lu Xingyun's own sister, and Duanmu Qinghui can be called his most proud disciple. β
"It's a pity that we can't find any trace of the Lu family now, otherwise we can ask clearly."
Duanmu Yuhua listened carefully to the conversation between the two, and she was shocked in her heart. One is that Lu Weizhen has nothing to do with the Lu family, so it is understandable that Lu Xingyun did not hand over the Lu family to Lu Weizhen.
Second, since the Lu family has such strict family rules, they are not even allowed to tell outsiders secrets. But to be able to hand over the position of the young master to himself, this is too incredible.
The ensuing questions came to my mind.
The bone whistle was given to her by Kiyono. So now it seems that Qingye is not Lu Weizhen's person, whose person is she? How do you know these things?
Faced with the current situation, should she tell them if she knows where the Lu family is.
"What's wrong, Xi Hua."
Lu Weizhen always paid attention to the girl, and it was easy to feel the violent fluctuations in her mood. When they looked at each other again, they saw that her face was pale.
Wei Sique also noticed it, thinking that two days ago, he guessed that she had abdominal pain again. So, he said confidently.
"Let people boil a bowl of brown sugar ginger water, it should be relieved."
In the next second, he received a murderous look from Lu Weizhen.
It's not what Wei Sique thinks, but it's a suitable reason to explain her current situation. Taking advantage of Lu Weizhen's opening of the door to summon the little girl to cook soup, she quickly adjusted her mood.
The young man closed the door again and sat back in his seat to comfort her.
"Soon enough."
"Thank you Lu Xiang and your lord."
Lu Weizhen looked at the two of them and turned back to the topic he had just said.
"I know people from the Lu family, including the current patriarch, and I have asked him about this matter. But Lu Xinghe told me that he could only tell me if the young master agreed. β
In other words, even the patriarch does not have the power to speak the truth, Wei Sique said.
"Then let him introduce us, and when we meet the young master of the Lu family, we can talk about it in person. If he had been sensible, he would have told us. β
Lu Weizhen shook his head.
"Lu Xinghe said that the young master has not returned to his family, and they have been waiting."
"So you have to wait for the rabbit?"
"Well, the Lu family's road won't work. We can only find the answer in the Imperial Palace, that is, from His Majesty. β
The young man turned to look at the girl, his eyebrows light and his voice gentle.
"This requires the help of the county lord."
"Huh?" She? What can she do.
"The only person who can solve the mystery of His Majesty's bloodline is Lady Afu. She is not dead, and now she is imprisoned in an unknown palace, which King Nan'an should know. β
Duanmu Yuhua nodded.
"How, then, shall I persuade my father to visit her?"
"Not necessarily."
"Huh?"
"On the fifteenth day of every month, the king of Nan'an must enter the palace once, that is, to see Mrs. Afu. The county lord only needs to do something to the king of Nan'an to let us know where the location is. β
Fifteen, isn't it just the spring after half a month, I don't have time to think about it, Lu Weizhen continued.
"I have a medicinal powder here, and when you touch it on people, it gives off a unique fragrance. There is a butterfly that was born specifically to track this scent. β
"At that time, I will hand over the medicine powder and the female butterfly to the county lord, and the county lord will release the female butterfly, and it will chase after the prince. Then we release the male butterfly, and we can follow the female butterfly to find where Lady Afu's palace is. β
