Chang Wang's Mansion.

When King Chang heard the news of Lu Qingmeng's injury, he was restless all afternoon.

"It's all that slut, if it weren't for her Qingmeng, she wouldn't have been hurt." King Chang secretly complained that he had no remorse or self-blame for Lu Jiaojiao's death.

"Your Highness, the doctor who was invited by the Lu Mansion to treat Miss Lu has brought it." The people of the Changwang Mansion came to report.

Thinking of his previous framing of Lu Xuan, King Chang didn't dare to go directly to the door to investigate Lu Qingmeng's situation, so he could only inquire secretly in this way.

When the little folk doctor saw the prince for the first time, his legs were already weak and difficult to control himself at the gate of the palace.

And King Chang's attitude towards him was not much better, and when he came up, he asked him with a fierce face: "Your Highness asks you, how is the injury of the girl you went to Lu Mansion for treatment today?" ”

Faced with King Chang's fierce and vicious appearance, the doctor instantly fell to his knees in fright, and for a while he couldn't even say a complete sentence, only trembling uncontrollably.

King Chang has always been the most impatient, and in the face of the doctor's timid and cowardly appearance, he couldn't bear it, and instantly roared at him: "Your Highness is asking you, don't you hear?" ”

was so scolded by King Chang that the doctor was even more frightened, and hurriedly kowtowed to her, and stumbled in response: "Xiaomin knows his mistakes, Xiaomin knows his mistakes, that Lu girl is blessed with a great life, and she has not hurt the vital point." ”

King Chang breathed a sigh of relief, and instead glanced at the doctor with a disgusted expression: "Wouldn't it have been said earlier?" I have to make His Highness angry. ”

After confirming that Lu Qingmeng was fine, King Chang ordered the doctor to be sent away, and ordered him not to mention the things that he had seen himself today, otherwise he would have to pay for the lives of his entire family.

"Your Highness, the guard who was killed in Nafu." The head of the guard of King Chang's Mansion asked King Chao Chang.

He looked disdainful: "I can't even beat an old man, and I was injured even by Qingmeng, he died innocently, and threw his body to His Highness to feed the dogs!" ”

The chief guard responded tremblingly, and was about to go out when he bumped into the doorman who came to report - "Your Highness Qiqi, Lord Li asks to see you." ”

King Chang couldn't help but be stunned: "What is he doing at this time?" ”

Muttering to himself, he still spoke to the doorman: "Let him in." ”

Li Ce entered the door, saluted King Chang and asked directly about Lu Qingmeng: "The lower official heard that Miss Lu came to see His Royal Highness today, and she was seriously injured on the way back to the palace, and she also injured a guard in His Highness's mansion, can this matter be serious?" ”

When King Chang heard this, he deliberately put on a bullying appearance to hide his inner uneasiness: "Why, Lord Li has specially come to ask His Highness Xingshi to ask for guilt?" ”

In the final analysis, King Chang was able to get to know Lu Qingmeng through Li Ce's relationship, and now that she is seriously injured, it is reasonable for Li Ce to blame for this.

But Li Ce is very sleek, how could he turn against his big backer for the sake of a mere woman?

Li Ce hurriedly denied respectfully: "Your Highness misunderstood, the lower official just inconvenienced to visit the Lu Mansion, and wanted to come to His Highness to be well-informed, so he came to inquire." ”

King Chang breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately informed Li Ce of Lu Qingmeng's injury.

Knowing that Lu Qingmeng was fine, Li Ce breathed a sigh of relief, but there seemed to be a lot of concern between his eyebrows.

After being silent for a while, Li Ce spoke to King Chang: "Xiaguan is always a little uneasy in his heart, I don't know if Xiaguan is too careful." ”

"Lord Li has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it." King Chang agreed.

Li Ce explained: "Although Miss Lu is a victim this time, after all, the Lu family branch has also lost the two of them, and the rest of the people can't guarantee that they will not regard Miss Lu as the culprit and retaliate against her, and the lower officials are worried about ......."

Originally, King Chang had no plans to target the Lu family's branches, but now they not only hurt Lu Qingmeng, but also posed a further threat to her, so it was unbearable for King Chang, who had pity on the fragrance and cherished the jade.

King Chang was instantly moved by Li Ce's words, thought for a moment, and then asked him, "Then what is Lord Li's opinion?" ”

Only then did Li Ce say the countermeasures that he and Lu Qingmeng had discussed early on: "According to the opinion of the lower officials, it should be cut down and eradicated, and future troubles should never be eliminated." ”

King Chang was shocked when he heard this, he acted recklessly, arrogantly and unreasonably, and he had done a lot of things that hurt nature and reason, but he had never done anything like this.

Li Ce has always been ruthless, and King Chang has already learned from the first day he contacted him, but he didn't expect that the lives of more than a dozen people in the Lu family would be mentioned so easily by him.

King Chang couldn't help but fall into a tangle, now he has just been grounded by Emperor Liang Qin because of the matter of raising soldiers and horses in the eastern suburbs, if he is caught and lynched the common people, I am afraid that even Emperor Liang Qin will no longer protect him.

Seeing King Chang's timid look, Li Ce couldn't even guess what he was afraid of without even thinking about it, but fortunately, he and Lu Qingmeng had already planned.

After pondering for a while, Li Ce immediately spoke to King Chang: "Your Highness don't worry, Your Highness has already thought of a way out." ”

After saying that, Li Ce immediately whispered to King Chang about the "perfect strategy" that he and Lu Qingmeng had discussed in advance.

After listening to what Li Ce said, King Chang couldn't help but show a gloomy and satisfied smile on his face, and secretly felt that this method was feasible, and then signaled to the chief guard beside him, who had not yet retreated: "Why don't you do what Lord Li said?" ”

The chief of the guard received the order, and then took advantage of the night to sneak into the Lu family's mansion.

At that time, everyone in the Shuzhi branch was suffering from the catastrophe that fell from the sky and couldn't sleep all night.

The fat Xu family, who was stimulated to faint, was even worse, and he had been in a trance since he woke up, and Lu Xuan had also heard about it.

Finally, in the second half of the night, several people guarding the ancestral hall were drowsy, but a group of mysterious black-clothed people took this opportunity to sneak into various parts of the mansion.

Fat Xu, who had never fallen asleep, only smelled a strange fragrance coming from outside the house, and before he could react, he had already fallen asleep, and the rest of the people were the same.

The man in black locked the door of the house and left in a hurry, and when he left, he specially left a special "gift" from King Chang.

The next day, while Lu Xuan was still asleep, she heard a noisy discussion outside the door, and she gradually woke up from her sleep.

"What's wrong?" Lu Xuan opened the door and came out to ask, and Aunt Wang, who was sweeping the courtyard, hurriedly stepped forward: "The eldest prince is up." ”

"Aunt Wang, what are you talking about early in the morning?" Lu Xuan asked the other party.

Aunt Wang said with an embarrassed face: "The son has not yet gone out, I don't know, last night the Shuzhi Mansion was in the water, and the entire mansion was turned into ruins overnight!" ”

Lu Xuan was taken aback when he heard this: "What? Flow? How so? ”

As the saying goes, "Misfortune does not go alone", but the death of the head of the family and the young daughter in one breath is already miserable enough, why is it so coincidental that a fire burned their family to nothing?

Lu Xuan was surprised, and then she heard Aunt Wang's explanation: "Didn't the fat lady suffer from madness yesterday?" I heard that she put this fire, so she said that she wanted to go with the lord of Shuzhi. ”

"Okay, I know, Aunt Wang, you go get busy first." Lu Xuan sent Aunt Wang away with a sluggish expression, and then fell into a deep thought.

Although it is indeed possible for Fat Xu to be frightened and replaced by madness, how can other people in the house condone or even accompany her to mess around?

Along the street of the Shuzhi Mansion, if someone calls for help when walking in the water, even late at night, it can attract rescue, why didn't anyone get the news until dawn?

"Did they all die voluntarily and never struggle?" Lu Xuan muttered to herself, but she didn't even believe it.

It is too strange that the events that happened in one day are so strange that it has to be doubted whether someone is manipulating it.

Thinking of this, Lu Xuan went to the other courtyard to find Rong Li without saying a word, this matter must be related to Lu Qingmeng, and it is necessary to find out before her injuries heal.

Lu Xuan took Rong Li all the way to the Shuzhi Mansion, which was indeed as Aunt Wang said, and had already turned into a ruin.

"It's probably burning too much." Lu Xuan couldn't help but sigh, and Rong Li also thought so: "Let's go and see." ”

Lu Xuan immediately pushed Rong Li's wheelchair around the ruins of the Shuzhi Mansion and took a closer look, it was indeed a walk in the water, and the people inside were even burned and couldn't even find their ashes.

"Wait, what is this?" Rong Liao suddenly noticed something suspicious from the corner of the sun, which seemed to be some white powder.

Hearing this, Lu Xuan hurriedly leaned over and took a handful and put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed it, only to see a trace of consternation on her face, and then almost in unison with Rong Li—"It's phosphorus powder!" ”

"Someone must have set a fire here and sprinkled phosphorus powder to help burn it, otherwise the fire wouldn't have been so ferocious." Lie so you go.

This is strange, rumors say that the person who set the fire is the crazy fat Xu, but how can a crazy person know how to expand the fire with the help of phosphorus powder?

"Cousin, I always feel that what happened in Shuzhi was deliberately planned by someone." At this point, Lu Xuan dared to generously express the doubts in his heart.

Rong Liao didn't seem surprised by this, but asked her calmly: "What did my cousin say about Lu Qingmeng?" ”

Lu Xuan nodded: "I sensed that she had the idea of eradicating the branch before, and I just let her go when she was doing us a favor, but I never thought that she would be such a means." ”

Lu Xuan originally just wanted to use the criminal law to expel Lu Xilong, who had done all the bad things, from Shengjing City, but he didn't expect that Lu Qingmeng would come to this trick to disregard people's lives and catch them all.

This fire turned the entire mansion into ruins overnight, and how many innocent people were buried under it, Lu Xuan simply hated the people behind the scenes.

But the matter has come to this point, everything is still undecided, and she can only remind herself to calm down.
