"So dad really handed over Wang Yong's child to the mountain bandits?" Lu Xuan listened to what Cui Shi said in disbelief.

Fortunately, Cui Shi shook his head: "Actually, the mountain bandits were originally the children of Lord Wang, and your father also made this strategy in order to save talents, and took the children of civilian families who died early in exchange." ”

According to Cui's statement, the mountain bandits knew that they had nowhere to escape, but they just wanted to bring Wang Yong's son to the funeral, and Lu Yan expected that after they exchanged children, they would definitely not check the life and death carefully, so they gambled with it.

Lu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, Lu Yan's image of integrity and majesty in her mind had not been shattered, but if so, it would be even more unreasonable.

"But Dad obviously saved Wang Yong's child, why didn't he thank his father, but regarded his father as an enemy and even put him to death?" Lu Xuan was puzzled.

I only heard Cui's sigh deeply: "It's all because your father is too kind and wants to protect the only descendant of the Wang family." ”

At the beginning, the group of mountain bandits was all over the Liang Kingdom, and only a small part of them were besieged by Wang Yong, and he became the target of all the mountain bandits to eradicate early on.

At that time, Wang Yong watched the tragic death of "his own child", and he was angry for a while, and he didn't have time to listen to anyone's explanation, Lu Yan could only temporarily take the child to the side in order to save the lives of the descendants of the Wang family.

But later he was mistaken by Wang Yong for betraying him, Wang Yong was promoted because of his meritorious service in suppressing bandits, but the pain of losing his son made his only wife die in a hurry.

Wang Yong has always been an extremely infatuated person, and there is only one wife in this life, and the child who was "killed" by Lu Yan became the only descendant of the Wang family, and he naturally hated the Lu family.

"Why didn't Dad return the child to Wang Yong?" Lu Xuan asked in surprise.

Cui Shi explained: "Back then, the remnants of the mountain bandits were all over the place, and Lord Wang would naturally be able to live a safe life if he was promoted, but if it was known that his son was still alive, he would inevitably die, and even become a bargaining chip used by the mountain bandits to threaten Lord Wang." ”

"So my father has been hiding from Wang Yong, making him think that his son died tragically, and then he has always hated his father because of this?" Lu Xuan even couldn't understand what Lu Yan did at the beginning, as Cui Shi said, he was indeed too kind.

"Lord Wang's wife died of anger as soon as she received the news, even if your father explained it to him afterwards, I'm afraid he won't forgive." Cui Shi said.

Speaking of which, Wang Yong is also a pitiful person, and what happened back then was really a misunderstanding, Lu Xuan couldn't help sighing, and turned to Cui's and asked, "What about that child?" Dad didn't give him back to Wang Yong, where did he go later? ”

Just now Cui Shi said that he looked calm, but when she mentioned the child at this time, her expression suddenly showed a panic that was not easy to detect.

Almost without hesitation, Cui Shi immediately responded to Lu Xuan: "That child was given to others by your father to be raised, and I plan to teach him to read and practice martial arts, and when he becomes an adult, he will return it to Lord Wang when he has the ability to protect himself." ”

"Then ...... he now" Lu Xuan asked again, after calculating in this way, this child is seventeen or eighteen years old this year, and according to Lu Yan's plan back then, it should be returned to Wang Yong.

But seeing that Lu Xuan had such a thought, Cui's immediately responded to her: "After your father died, the family moved out of Shengjing City, and I can't contact them." ”

"Then they took it away with Wang Yong's children?" Lu Xuan couldn't help but be stunned.

Cui Shi nodded hurriedly: "That's right, your father was kind enough to save the child for him, but he took revenge on your father to death, all this must be retribution." ”

This reaction really shocked Lu Xuan, in her impression, Cui has always been an empathetic and pure-minded person, but she didn't expect him to hold grudges and revenge.

Lu Xuan wanted to ask something more, but Cui Shi had already finished the topic, only to see her look at Lu Xuan with a serious face: "Don't let Wang Yong know about this matter." ”

"But what happened back then was really a misunderstanding, do you want him to keep misunderstanding his father like this and never see his children?" At this time, Lu Xuan had already put those grudges behind and had compassion.

Cui Shi was quite calculating, and hurriedly nodded at her: "This time is different from the past, now Wang Yong only has hatred for the Lu family, if he learns this news, he will only not let you go." ”

Not to mention the side, now Wang Yong has no intention of letting Lu Xuan go.

Seeing Lu Xuan's hesitation, Cui Shi immediately showed a more serious expression, like a warning, more like a pleading: "Ah Xuan, you just promise me, swallow this in your stomach forever, don't tell anyone, okay?" ”

"This ......" Although Lu Xuan hesitated, seeing Cui's stubbornness, she didn't seem to have any other way but to agree, so she nodded reluctantly: "That's it, since A-Niang doesn't want to say it, I have never heard of it today." ”

Lu Xuan promised like this, and the Cui family breathed a sigh of relief.

But after nightfall, Lu Xuan tossed and turned, unable to sleep, although Wang Yong was indeed the direct murderer of Lu Yan, but it was actually those in the cabinet who had not yet been found out who really pushed him to that step. 49 eBooks

Thinking back to what Cui told today, in fact, Wang Yong is indeed a poor person, because of a misunderstanding, he suffered the pain of losing a son and a wife, and he had to think day and night about being deceived by the most trusted person.

It is really human nature to have a heart of revenge in such a situation, and I don't know why Lu Xuan has some sympathy and understanding for Wang Yong.

"Do you really want to hide this matter all the time as A-Niang said?" Lu Xuan muttered to herself, and she hesitated in her heart.

After thinking about it, the reason why Cui's let Lu Xuan hide it was just because he was worried about her safety and afraid that Wang Yong would kill her.

But if he completely ignores others for self-preservation, the Lu family may really become the kind of selfish person that Wang Yong thinks.

Reason told Lu Xuan to keep her promise, and promised Cui that she would keep the secret to the end, but emotion told her when it was time to retrigate her grievances, and the beauty of adults is the virtue of a gentleman.

Being controlled by these two feelings at the same time, Lu Xuan couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and couldn't sleep all night, thinking that at this time, it would be good if he was lying, his mind was as delicate as water, and he would definitely be able to help him solve these puzzles.

At the same time, Rong Li, who was far away in Dongyang, didn't he think about Lu Xuan day and night? In the past, he might have been able to solve Lu Xuan's worries when she was confused, but since he became the successor head of the family, he has no less sorrow in his heart than anyone else.

Rong Lie used dishonoring to retaliate against Erniang, forcing her to contract madness, but he couldn't sleep and eat all day, and he only felt that he was no longer the Rong Gongzi who could illuminate Lu Xuan's heart like a clear breeze and a bright moon.

In different places, the people who are connected with each other have their own sorrows, just as Rong Li expected when he left, and before the day he returned to Shengjing City, everything was already wrong.

The next day, Lu Xuan was still troubled by yesterday's conversation with Cui's family, and he could not answer it for a long time, and the case at hand was even more helpless.

Gu Huanli and Emperor Liang Qin agreed on a month's time, which seemed to be abundant, but it was unknown how many difficulties and obstacles would be encountered in the process, and Lu Xuan, as the only person who could reverse the situation, really didn't dare to relax for a moment.

If she concealed this secret as she promised Cui, she might indeed be able to take revenge on Wang Yong, but after living for two lifetimes, Lu Xuan clearly understood that this was not what she wanted.

But if she violated the agreement with Cui's family, she would be annoyed at most, as long as Lu Xuan was safe and sound, she would have nothing to say.

Violating the agreement and telling Wang Yong this secret can not only resolve the misunderstanding between the two families and restore Lu Yan's impression in his heart, but also in exchange for the key evidence of the case that year, so as to clear Lu Yan's grievances and retain military power for Gu Huanli.

In this comparison, sensible people probably know how to choose, so Lu Xuan had no choice but to apologize for the Cui family for the time being, and went straight to the Murderous King's Mansion.

"What can you find out from Mrs. Lu's mouth?" Seeing that Lu Xuan must have had a new clue when he came to look for him, Gu Huanli asked her casually.

Lu Xuan didn't say much, and stepped forward to ask Gu Huanli-"Can you borrow His Highness's secret guard?" ”

Gu Huanli was stunned when he heard this: "What are you going to do with the secret guard?" ”

"It's a family matter, forgive me for not saying more, in short, I want to use His Highness's secret guard to find a boy who was adopted eighteen years ago, and now he should be an adult, just like my family Nanjun." Lu Xuan said.

But this is too general, from Cui's mouth, I learned that the family moved out of Shengjing City early in the morning, that is, now they are looking for such a person all over the world.

Even if the secret guards of the Fierce King's Mansion are powerful, it is difficult to find a needle in a haystack for this real thing.

Gu Huanli was also shocked when he heard this: "Are there no other clues?" ”

Lu Xuan shook her head lonely, Cui Shi didn't confide in her too much, and it was even more impossible to go back to her to find out the news now, maybe she would be severely stopped by her.

Magical powers like Gu Huanli are also difficult to use for this kind of thing without clues, it can be seen that Lu Xuan really regards this matter very seriously, and he really can't refuse.

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Huanli still nodded: "Since it is the person you are looking for, this king will order the secret guards to do their best to find it." ”

In fact, Lu Xuan herself knew that such a request was difficult for some strong people, and when she said it, she just wanted to try, and never thought that Gu Huanli would agree so easily.

At this time, raising his eyes to look at Gu Huanli's resolute eyes, Lu Xuan suddenly felt that he really had a reliance, a reliance that would not be abandoned no matter what.

If only I could have known him in my previous life, then perhaps none of the tragedies in the future would have happened. Lu Xuan thought so in his heart.
