Fang Lu looked up at Qin Yuandao's eyes, his Adam's apple kept rolling up and down, he now knew that the situation of the Lu Xiangfu was difficult, if the matter was revealed, Fang Lu would definitely die, but... The ants still have the heart to be reluctant, and Fang Lu is no exception, he also wants to live.

On the one hand, there was a matter of life and death, and on the other hand, the master who had served for more than ten years, Fang Lu fell into deep thought.

"You must know that Lu Gaohong may not die or not, but he has done so many bad things, I think you know better than this official, you are his minion... After all, Lu Gaohong is a relative of the emperor, the only brother of Empress Mingxian, the uncle of His Royal Highness the Prince, and at most the whole family is exiled to a barren place, but you are different, you are just a pawn under Lu Gaohong7, if you want to live, just testify against him for us, and this official will protect you from death. ”

Qin Yuandao looked at Fang Lu's hesitant appearance, and then said demagogic words word by word, Liang Lian and Yin Renzhao could see that Qin Yuandao was extremely able to grasp the weakness in the other party's heart, so as to bewitch.

First of all, Yin Renzhao hid his debt and conscience to his daughter in the bottom of his heart, and now Qin Yuandao looked at Fang Lu when he learned that Lu Gaohong was going to fall, and he looked like he was submissive, thinking that he was extremely afraid of life and death.

"You have to think about it. There is only one chance, even if you don't help us testify against him, the emperor is wise, and sooner or later he will find out, and when you arrive, you will definitely die. Qin Yuandao stood up upright, and continued with a look of indifference, "I know that the great housekeeper Fang is loyal to Lu Gaohong, thinking that it is just a human being who is inherently dead, or lighter than a feather, or heavier than Mount Tai. ”

Qin Yuandao looked at Fang Lu and said slowly, "I want to leave a good reputation for being loyal to the Lord until I die, right... But who do you think cares under the reflection of this kind of thing? ”

Then he looked at the palace and said: "Only you came out to testify against Lu Gaohong, and to remove the poison for the imperial court, not only can you save your life, but also... Famous through the ages. ”

Fang Lu knelt on the ground, raised his head and looked at Qin Yuandao, his eyes followed the direction he was looking at, looking at the imperial city in the night, the snow on the ground looked solemn and serious.

After a long time, Fang Lu seemed to have made up his mind, and said to Qin Yuandao: "I can enter the palace with you to testify against Prime Minister Lu, but... I have one condition. ”

Liang Xiao couldn't wait to step forward and give him a kick, but after Zhao Zhao calmed down, he just cared about holding Liang Lin and not letting him be impulsive and make mistakes.

Yin Renzhao and Cheng Liang and Deng Xin behind him stood together, watching all this dumbfounded, thinking that it was fortunate that they didn't provoke Qin Yuandao and Liang Lian, otherwise they didn't know how they really died.

Fang Lu saw that Liang Liang was about to start beating him, so he shrank his head cowardly, but he still looked at Qin Yuandao without giving up, and asked: "I have only one condition, you agree, I will say anything, you let me go to the Lu Xiangfu to find out the evidence of those accounts, it's okay." I only need one condition. ”

Qin Yuandao was not in a hurry to agree to Fang Lu so quickly, he was not familiar with Fang Lu, but judging from this short contact, Fang Lu did not have a very firm heart, thinking that most of his conditions were also for money and housing, and for a stable old age.

"It doesn't matter what your conditions are, there's not much time left. Uncle, just tie him up to the palace together! Liang Lian was angry for a while when he thought that this person had helped Lu Gaohong do a lot of bad things, and now he was designing his sister and Her Royal Highness the Princess.

"Even if you enter the palace, if you don't promise me, I won't say anything!" When Fang Lu saw Liang Lonely's appearance, it was rare to have backbone.

"I don't care if you say it or not, take you into the palace first, and torture you to say where your ancestral tomb is!" Liang Xiao looked fierce and vicious, and others had to retreat when they saw it.

Fortunately, this is the gate of the palace, and there are not too many people staying here, and the Imperial Forest Army does not look at this corner, I have to say that Fang Lu has found an excellent position.

"Lord Qin..."Fang Lu didn't dare to look at Liang Lone, for fear that he would kill himself by accident, so he turned to look at Qin Yuandao and pleaded bitterly, "Just one condition." ”

"Tell me about it." After Qin Yuandao thought about it carefully, he felt that if there was Fang Lu's evidence, he would be able to pull Lu Gaohong off the horse accurately.

"If so... If I can survive after I come forward to testify, Mrs. Lu's mother's family will definitely send someone to hunt me down... At that moment... Lord Qin... You said you wanted to protect me. Fang Lu looked at Qin Yuandao and spoke slowly.

As soon as his words fell, Qin Yuandao was about to be laughed at by him, it turned out that it was still this matter, Fang Lu was not worried that the emperor would kill him, but he was afraid that Mrs. Lu's mother's family would send someone to hunt him down, it was really a joke.

"Okay, this official promises you." Qin Yuandao is a second-grade Beijing official, can he protect a small inconspicuous housekeeper?

Fang Lu saw that Qin Yuandao had agreed to him, so he was also relieved, and slowly got up, hiding behind Qin Yuandao, not daring to look directly into Liang Liang's eyes.

Liang Lin saw that he just made such a small and not too excessive request, so he no longer felt sorry for him, if he really kicked him stupidly, then he would really lose his efforts.

Now they have the corpse of the palace maid in their hands to testify against Lu Chen, and Yin Renzhao's confession to explain how Lu Huiling coerced the nobles to help, and add another Fang Lu, it can be said that everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

"How do you enter the palace now?" Liang Xiao didn't want to deal with Fang Lu, turned his gaze to Qin Yuandao, and pointed to the carriage behind him, "I don't know what the situation is in the palace, we can easily be stopped if we go in like this." ”

Qin Yuandao looked at the direction of the palace gate, the palace gate was closed at this time, thinking that there would be many royal forest soldiers guarding the palace gate, and they would probably have to report it as soon as they passed.

"General, my lord, we didn't do anything wrong, they stopped it, just let them report it, and it will be announced to the public after all. We are hiding like this, as if we have done something wrong, but it is clear that they are the ones who are wrong. Deng Xin hid aside and couldn't help but say.

This way is obviously to investigate the case, but they are hiding in Tibet, and they are chased all over the capital, as if they have done something wrong, which is really aggrieved.

"Yes, my lord, General... It's because of them that they cover up the light, but we shouldn't be like this. Cheng Liang stood aside and echoed.

After hearing this, Liang Lin and Qin Yuan glanced at each other and felt that what they said was very right.

They are obviously doing things that are beneficial to the Celestial Empire, but they are forced to hide in the dark, and now they have to think about how to quietly send the evidence to the palace, which is really wronged.

For so long, the officialdom of the Celestial Empire has always been like this, under the control of Lu Gaohong, many people will only flatter and not tell the truth, resulting in the fact that those of them who really do practical things to clean up the remnants of officialdom for the Celestial Empire are forced to flee in the dark.

They raised their heads one after another, and even though night was falling, they could still see the dark clouds hanging overhead, and if this dark cloud was not cleared, they would live forever under this darkness.

"That's right, we must show them with great fanfare, and let them know that in the Celestial Empire, there are not only those who bend the law for personal gain and are corrupt!"

Qin Yuandao looked at the palace, at this time, a little starlight had been lit, and the people cheered, which meant that the fireworks were about to bloom.
