Chapter 271: The Secret of the Past

Gu Huanli's arrow wound was more serious than Rong Lily imagined, it was only half an inch away from his heart, thinking that the moment he decided to block the arrow for Lu Xuan, he really didn't have time to make other plans in his heart.

What kind of feelings can make a person even care about his life in order to save another person, the answer to this question must be clear to everyone, with mixed feelings in his heart, he carefully healed Gu Huanli.

After a while, Rong Li opened the door, and Lu Xuan hurriedly rushed towards him: "Cousin, how is Your Highness's injury?" ”

A lot of blood oozed from Gu Huanli's wounds, so it was no wonder that Lu Xuan was worried about this.

Originally, as a doctor, it was his duty to save the dead and help the wounded, and when he saw that the injured were safe and sound, he was happy in his heart, but now that Lu Xuan was so worried about Gu Huanli, where did he be happy?

Holding back the displeasure in his heart, he lied before he spoke: "He is a little seriously injured, I'm afraid it will take some time to recuperate." ”

Hearing this, Shen Xixu was stunned: "But when Luo Ming came over a few days ago, he clearly said that it was just a small injury." ”

At this time, Lu Xuan understood that the injuries were not serious and could not listen to them at all, and in their eyes, I am afraid that no matter how deep the injuries were, they were not worth mentioning.

After such a long time, everyone calmed down, and Rong Li looked at Lu Xuan calmly: "Ah Xuan, do you really want to continue to live here?" ”

Lu Xuan hesitated for a moment, but still nodded: "My cousin has said that His Highness is seriously injured, how can I abandon him?" There is no suitable person to take care of the palace, so I should wait until His Highness is well injured before leaving. ”

Seeing that Lu Xuan had already made a decision in his heart, and it was not difficult to tolerate lies, he couldn't help but nod his head: "That's it, since you have already decided, I naturally have nothing to say." ”

After another pause, Rong Li sighed: "I'm going back early tomorrow morning, I don't know when I'll be back, take care of your life." ”

Seeing that Rong Li finally bravely crossed the hurdle in his heart and decided to return to the clan to take on the responsibilities that should belong to him, Lu Xuan was very relieved in his heart, and then smiled at him:

"I know that my cousin is a big-hearted person who will definitely be able to make the most correct decision, everything here is with me, my cousin can go with peace of mind, don't worry."

After hearing Lu Xuan's words, Rong Li's face couldn't help but show a wry smile.

Maybe she never understood what he was really concerned about, what was the rise and fall of this Shengjing City and the survival of the Lu family to him? All he cared about was the person in front of him.

Rong Li didn't say what he really thought in his heart, as he said, the return date is unknown, and everything he said at this time, with the change of personnel, when he returns again, I am afraid it will be impossible to count.

After being silent for a moment, Rong Li nodded: "Okay, with you, I have always been at ease, you can take good care of him, you don't have to send him off tomorrow, the clan will send someone to pick me up." ”

After saying that, Rong Li immediately turned around and left, without the obsession he had when he came, and he didn't care about the prejudice against someone, leaving a lonely heart full of loneliness and a lonely shadow.

Seeing Rong lie leave, Lu Xuan turned around and went back to visit Gu Huanli, looking at his face at this time, the injury seemed to be getting worse, she couldn't help sighing, and muttered:

"People who are so old are still like children, and they don't know how to stop until they hurt themselves."

Seeing that Lu Xuan cared so much about Gu Huanli, Shen Xixu, who was a niece, couldn't let go, and then patted her on the shoulder: "Since Uncle Huang is asleep, I will go back first, Ah Xuan, you take good care of him, I will come to visit another day." ”

Lu Xuan nodded, and sent Shen Xixu away with a hostess posture.

After a long time, Gu Huanli slowly came to his senses, only to see Lu Xuan standing in front of the couch staring at him.

Gu Huanli couldn't help but be shocked by Lu Xuan's eyes, and almost touched the wound again.

"What are you doing looking at this king?" Gu Huanli felt a little strange, and then asked Lu Xuan, and when he asked, his eyes unconsciously glanced behind her.

Lu Xuan knew what he was looking at, so he glanced at him helplessly, and then responded to him: "Don't look for it, my cousin has already left." ”

Gu Huanli breathed a sigh of relief, and then sneered contemptuously: "Leaving so easily? This king will take you back to Dongyang while he is unconscious. ”

When Jing said some cool words, Lu Xuan didn't bother to pay attention to him, and then reminded him: "Your Highness, you don't have to think of my cousin as that kind of villain, your injuries are still treated by me and him." ”

Hearing this, Gu Huanli subconsciously looked at his injury, this bandaging technique was indeed much more standardized than Luo Mingrang and Lu Xuan, and he barely swallowed the breath in his heart.

"He's leaving?" Gu Huanli casually asked Lu Xuan, and then she nodded: "Yes, the head of the Dongyang Rong family died of illness, and my cousin, as an only son, needs to go back to rectify the family." ”

Gu Huanli had never inquired about Lu Xuan's family before, and he didn't bother to pay attention to Rong Li, but at this moment, when he heard Lu Xuan mention Dongyang Rong's family, he was thoughtful.

"The Dongyang Rong clan you are talking about is one of the four major clans that Taizu enshrined when he was alive?" Gu Huanli was suspicious.

Lu Xuan couldn't help but be stunned: "Your Highness still knows about this?" I thought these were all things that happened when Taizu was alive, Your Majesty doesn't value the clan now, and the Rong family is about to fall apart. ”

It is precisely for this reason that Lu Xuan never felt that Rong Li had anything special about being the eldest son of the clan, but because of what happened to him, he was helped everywhere.

However, looking at Gu Huanli's heavy face when he mentioned the four major clans, the matter of the Dongyang Rong clan was obviously not as simple as Lu Xuan thought.

Lu Xuan couldn't help but be puzzled: "Why did His Highness suddenly mention this matter, but is there anything special?" ”

Only then did Gu Huanli explain: "The four major families each hold important secrets related to the lifeblood of the imperial court. ”

"Secret?" Lu Xuan was puzzled.

"It is rumored that when Taizu founded the country, he hid the secret weapon that could make the country prosperous and save Daliang in danger in four brocade boxes, which were handed over to the four major clans for safekeeping, and the four major clans were passed down from generation to generation. Gu Huanli said.

From this point of view, the status of Dongyang Rong's family can be imagined.

"Then why didn't the imperial court take back the secret in the hands of the Rong family?" Lu Xuan asked curiously.

"It is rumored that it is the daughter of a certain patriarch of the Rong family, and she is in deep love, and she stole the brocade box and handed it to the lover outside." Gu Huanli smiled indifferently as he spoke, which sounded like a joke.

It's just a brocade box that has nothing to do with love, even if the two of them are deeply in love, what's the use of stealing that thing? Lu Xuan didn't believe this statement either.

But the brocade box in Dongyang Rong's hand has indeed disappeared without a trace, and Rong Li has never mentioned it after living in the Lu family for so many years.

Gu Huanli said a joke casually, paused for a moment, but his face suddenly became heavy:

"Right now, Your Majesty is suspicious of this king, I'm afraid he is trying his best to find that brocade box, the Lu family and the Rong family have always had an inexplicable connection, and this king is worried about ......"

Gu Huanli didn't continue, but Lu Xuan understood what he meant: "Your Highness is worried that Your Majesty will track down the Lu family?" ”

Gu Huanli acquiesced, and Lu Xuan hurriedly relieved him: "This highness can rest assured, I am now the eldest son of the Lu family, if the Lu family has such an object, how can I not know it?" ”

Having said so, Gu Huanli still had a bad premonition in his heart for no reason, and he was silent for a long time before he sighed and said, "I hope so."

I read this topic, and Gu Huanli spoke to Lu Xuan again: "This king and His Majesty have already made a decision on the matter of transferring you back to the Criminal Department, and the edict of the Criminal Department will be sent to the Lu Mansion tomorrow, and this king will let Lin Wei send you back." ”

Lu Xuan was shocked when she heard this, Gu Huanli was seriously injured and couldn't take care of herself before, and she had to leave her to take care of her if she said anything, why was she in a hurry to send her away when her injury worsened at this time?

Lu Xuan hesitated, and only spoke after a while: "Whether the edict is delivered or not has nothing to do with whether I return to the house or not, then let A-Niang take it on my behalf, but His Highness's injury, if you don't take care of it......"

Gu Huanli was naturally happy to be cared about by Lu Xuan, but he had his considerations, and at the moment, compared to the private affairs of these children, there were more important things that he needed to arrange.

"This king is fine, you don't have to worry, the palace is guarded by secret guards, and there will be nothing missing." Gu Huanli said.

But Lu Xuan clearly saw his wound reopened, how could he listen to his words and turn a blind eye?

"The secret guard can protect His Highness, but he can't take care of His Highness's daily life, so I'd better stay." Lu Xuan sincerely requested, thinking that Gu Huanli was losing his temper with himself because of the lie.

Seeing Lu Xuan's stubbornness, Gu Huanli had no choice but to express his true concerns in his heart - "Since you became an official in the court, you have been framed many times, have you ever thought about the reason?" ”

Lu Xuan didn't know why Gu Huanli suddenly asked such a question, but the answer she subconsciously gave birth to in her heart was: I was framed, isn't it because of you?

Although she didn't mean to blame or complain, she was just curious why Gu Huanli suddenly asked about it.

Seeing that Lu Xuan didn't answer, Gu Huanli spoke: "This king originally thought that you were framed by others because of their jealousy of this king, but now that I think about it, there may be another reason. ”

"Another reason?" Lu Xuan didn't know, except for Gu Huanli, why could she be an enemy of all civil and military officials?

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Huanli spoke: "You better go back and ask Mrs. Lu about the brocade box, this king is worried that this has some connection with your repeated targeting." ”

"Your Highness suspects that the brocade box kept in the hands of the Rong family is now in the hands of the Lu family?" Lu Xuan couldn't believe it, if there was really such a thing, how could she not know?
