Chapter 222: Two Birds with One Stone
Before Lu Xilong could walk to Lu Qingmeng's side, he felt a tingling pain coming from his chest.
He instantly seemed to understand something, and suddenly glared angrily, and the index finger of his right hand trembled and pointed at the vicious woman in front of him: "You, you hurt ......"
Seeing that Lu Xilong was about to say what Lu Qingmeng had done in front of the guards of Changwang's Mansion, she suddenly became anxious, pretending to be self-defensive, and pushed the other party fiercely.
Immediately afterwards, a muffled sound came from Lu Xilong's mouth, and his hideous eyes widened, and the words that were about to be said were forever silent with the dilation of his pupils.
Seeing this, Lu Qingmeng instantly sat down backwards, covering the wound with his hand and showing an extremely painful look.
The guards of Changwang's Mansion didn't have time to think about it, thinking that this place was not far from Lu's Mansion, so he picked up Lu Qingmeng and sent him back to the mansion without saying a word.
At that time, Cui's and Lu Nanjun still didn't know anything about what Lu Qingmeng was doing today, and when they saw Lu Qingmeng covered in blood and being picked up by a strange man, the two of them suddenly panicked.
"Qingmeng, what's wrong? Why did you shed so much blood? Cui Shi hurriedly rushed towards Lu Qingmeng and the guards of Chang Wangfu, but the person who was held in his arms was already unconscious at this time.
Lu Nanjun reacted very quickly and hurriedly went to find the nearest doctor.
The guards of the Changwang Mansion didn't have time to explain, so they only asked the Cui clan anxiously where they wanted to send Lu Qingmeng.
Cui Shi came back to his senses at this time, and hurriedly led him to the nearest room in front.
When Lu Qingmeng was settled down, he was already pale and sweating profusely, Lu Nanjun hurried all the way back to the house with the doctor, although he has never had a good impression of Lu Qingmeng, but after all, human life is a matter of heaven, and it is not allowed to be sloppy.
"Doctor, what's wrong with her?" Cui's was worried, and when he saw the doctor coming, he couldn't help but pull the family to Lu Qingmeng's bed.
The doctor hurriedly stepped forward to check Lu Qingmeng's pulse and check the wound, and everyone around him was staring.
Cui's and Lu Nanjun are worried about Lu Qingmeng, although the guards of King Chang's Mansion have nothing to do with her, but after all, it is King Chang's personal order to protect her, if she makes any mistakes, I'm afraid this guard will not be able to eat and walk around.
After a long time, I heard the doctor's response: "Fortunately, the injury is not critical, but the girl is weak and frightened, so she passed out, and the old man has treated the wound for the girl, and then prescribed some medicine to recuperate, and she will recover in a few days." ”
Cui Shi and Lu Nanjun breathed a sigh of relief, and the sweat of the guards of Changwang's Mansion had just fallen.
Lu Nanjun went to see the doctor out, and Cui Shi had to ask the strange man in front of him: "I don't know who Your Excellency is, why Qingmeng was brought back by Your Excellency, and who was she injured?" ”
Only then did the guard of King Chang's Mansion speak: "I am the guard of His Royal Highness King Chang's mansion, and I was ordered by His Royal Highness to escort Miss Lu back to the house, and the person who hurt Miss Lu was a middle-aged man, as for the reason, I am afraid that I will not know until Miss Lu wakes up." ”
Hearing the three words Chang Wangfu, Cui's couldn't help but be suspicious - Lu Qingmeng grew up in Lu Mansion freely, and he didn't go out of the door, how did he get involved with Chang Wangfu?
But before Cui Shi had time to ask, the person in front of him had already leaned down towards her: "I have to rush back to the palace to resume my life, if my wife has no other instructions, I will retire first." ”
Everyone has said such things, how can Cui's family be forced to keep others? Therefore, even if there are all kinds of doubts in his heart, he can only let people leave first.
"What the hell is going on?" Cui Shi was pacing in place and muttering to himself, but Lu Nanjun, who went to see off the doctor outside the door, suddenly ran back with a panicked face.
"A-Niang, something is wrong, uncle, uncle, he's dead." Lu Nanjun yelled at Cui Shi with a shocked face.
Cui's was even more shocked when he heard this: "What, dead?" ”
Although the Cui family has always hated Lu Xilong, he is also a member of the Lu family after all, as long as he can repent of what he has done, the Cui family can not blame the past, but now he says that he will die like this, which is really unacceptable.
After being stunned for a long time, the Cui family came back to his senses, and hurriedly asked Lu Nanjun about the situation: "What's the matter?" How did your uncle die? Where is he now? ”
Lu Nanjun looked dazed, and sorted out his thoughts before responding: "I also heard about it outside, and it seems that the man who killed the uncle was the man who came to see Lu Qingmeng off." ”
This is strange, the man just told Cui that he is a subordinate of the Chang Palace, since he is a member of the Imperial Mansion, why should he kill a common person?
It seems that all of this really has to wait until Lu Qingmeng wakes up to get the answer.
Seeing Cui's frightened look, Nanjun hurriedly opened his mouth to comfort her: "Auntie, don't worry, the aunts of the Shu branch are already cleaning up the body of the uncle." ”
In the end, Lu Xilong has done a lot of evil, and even if he dies, it will not be his turn to cry and mourn.
Cui Shi sighed secretly, and then stayed by Lu Qingmeng's side.
At that time, the fat Xu family, who had just learned of Lu Xilong's death, was so shocked by the news that she almost fainted, but fortunately, several juniors took her by the hand to hold her.
"Who is it, who killed the master!" Fat Xu's face was hideous, and he forced a breath to question the person who came to report.
At this time, Shu Zhi probably immediately linked Lu Xilong's murderer with Yan Zhi, but the people who came to inform them shocked them-
I saw him hesitate for a long time before a name popped out of his mouth that everyone couldn't believe: "Yes, it's the guard of His Royal Highness King Chang's mansion." ”
"What?" Fat Xu couldn't believe her ears, before that, she was bent on Lu Jiaojiao hooking up with King Chang so that she could become a relative of the emperor.
Now he was killed by his favorite son-in-law, which is simply ridiculous.
Fat Xu didn't know whether to be angry or panicked for a while.
Originally, if the real murderer was a person from the Yan Branch, the Fat Xu family planned to take someone to make a big fuss in front of the Lu Mansion, but now he is facing a dignified prince, not to mention that it is a big fuss, that is, she may not have the courage to say it.
Trying to calm himself down, the Fat Xu family arranged for a few juniors to go and carry Lu Xilong's body back, and he went to look for the missing Lu Jiaojiao with indignation.
"Look at the good man you chose, you can even ignore your father's life, I really raised this daughter for nothing." Fat Xu said as he walked towards Lu Jiaojiao's villa.
When the news of Lu Xilong's death came from Fangcai Mansion, all the juniors came out, but only Lu Jiaojiao, the most favored daughter on weekdays, was absent.
The fat Xu family was already annoyed enough, and this matter was related to King Chang, so she was even more anxious to let Lu Jiaojiao go to King Chang's mansion to ask for an explanation.
But when Lu Jiaojiao's room was found, there was no one, and Fat Xu couldn't help but be surprised: "Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao? This dead girl, it's clear that she is still there, when did she sneak out to play again? ”
Fat Xu staggered to find Lu Jiaojiao's traces in the house while wiping his tears, but he couldn't find it.
It wasn't until she bumped into Qing He, the maid who was serving Lu Jiaojiao closely, that the fat Xu family asked her about it, and she learned that Lu Jiaojiao had followed the nursing home sent to monitor Lu Qingmeng to Changwang's Mansion.
Lu Xilong's murder is related to King Chang, and now Lu Jiaojiao has lost King Chang again, which makes the fat Xu family really have to worry about the safety of his daughter.
But just when the Fat Xu family was full of worries and planned to go to Changwang's Mansion to find out, two corpses were carried in the courtyard of the Shu Branch, one of which could be clearly seen to be Lu Xilong himself, and the blood stains on his body had dried up and turned black.
The other, however, was carried on a wooden board by several well-dressed men, covered with a white cloth, so that the face of the deceased could not be seen at all.
Seeing this, everyone in the Shuzhi branch instantly rushed in the direction of Lu Xilong, and then there was a burst of crying in the courtyard.
Only the fat Xu family was still stunned, compared to Lu Xilong, who looked hideous in death, what attracted her more at this moment seemed to be another unknown corpse.
Fat Xu couldn't help but have some kind of ominous premonition in her heart, which drove her to walk towards the corpse covered with a white cloth step by step with heavy steps.
It wasn't until he got closer and saw the slender jade hand on the side of the wooden bed that was not covered by a white cloth that the poise on the fat Xu's face, which was barely tense, collapsed instantly.
In the midst of everyone's cries, only a sharp female voice was heard suddenly and unsocially: "Jiaojiao, my hard-working daughter, why did you come back to see your mother like this!" ”
Fat Xu cried heartbreakingly at the corpse covered by a white cloth, and the eyes of everyone in the Shuzhi branch were attracted.
"Auntie, you say this is Jiaojiao?" Lu Jiaojiao's second sister asked the fat Xu family in disbelief, and the white cloth clearly covered the person tightly, where could I see that this was Lu Jiaojiao?
The second girl simply suspected that the fat Xu family was stimulated by Lu Xilong's death.
At that time, the one who had been disqualified from the palace examination for framing Lu Xuan in Guangyuan Courtyard noticed the abnormality, and hurriedly asked casually: "But what about Jiaojiao?" Such a big thing happened recently, why can't you see her? ”
When he asked this, the second girl had the courage to walk towards the unknown corpse, and carefully uncovered the white cloth on it in front of everyone.
Sure enough, it was not someone else who slowly appeared in front of everyone under the white cloth, it was Lu Jiaojiao who the fat Xu family was crying for.
The second girl was so frightened that her legs went weak and she sat down on the ground.
I saw that under the spotless white cloth, Lu Jiaojiao's face was no longer bloody, but her body was stained with blood, and she seemed to have been beaten badly.
"How can this be, how can this be, Daddy is dead, Jiaojiao is also ......" The second girl couldn't help crying.
