Chapter 289: Revenge on Revenge
Asked by Lu Xuan, Hubu Shangshu simply sat down: "I thought I could bring this secret to the coffin, but I didn't expect to let you know in the end, what happened back then was indeed my negligence, and Ling Zun also took the blame for me in vain......"
Hubu Shangshu told Lu Xuan everything that happened back then, and when she learned the whole picture, she was even more confused.
originally thought that Hubu Shangshu was the same as those in the cabinet who framed Lu Yan, and they were all enemies of the Lu family, but after listening to what happened, it seemed that what happened back then was not what he wanted.
At that time, Hubu Shangshu had just entered the officialdom, his qualifications were still young and he had no background, and it was normal for him to hide that incident out of the instinct of survival, and Lu Xuan seemed to have no reason to blame him.
On the other hand, when he received the urgent summons of the six departments, he was worried all day long, thinking about how to destroy the corpse and destroy the traces, forcing himself to be unable to eat and sleep, and now he told Lu Xuan everything openly and honestly, and he was relieved in his heart.
"Back then, I was cowardly and hurt Lord Lu, and now I am still cowardly, and I dare not admit what I have done, now I have told you all the things, and it is up to you to decide how to deal with it, this is what I owe to the Lu family, and I have nothing to say." Hubu Shangshu sincerely talked to Lu Xuan.
Originally, Lu Xuan was determined that as long as she could clear her father's grievances, she would not hesitate to pay any price, but now she has compassion for the Hubu Shangshu.
To err is human? Back then, Lu Yan's life was buried because of a mistake, is it necessary to let the consequences of this mistake continue and hurt another unintentional person?
After thinking for a moment, Lu Xuan's heart softened, and she immediately raised her eyes to look at Hubu Shangshu: "That's it, you were also for self-protection back then, since you didn't intend to frame your father, then I have nothing to say." ”
Seeing that Lu Xuan's juniors are so magnanimous, but he is timid, in front of her, Hubu Shangshu is simply ashamed of himself, although she does not pursue it, but after all, he is ashamed of what happened back then.
After thinking about it, he still had to do something for Lu Xuan to make up for the damage caused to the Lu family over the years, and to be worthy of her being so considerate at the moment.
Hubu Shangshu tried to recall the events of the year, and after a while, he seemed to think of something, and hurriedly said to Lu Xuan: "By the way, I remember that there seemed to be a few people who came to the Hubu back then, just the night before Lord Lu came to inspect. ”
Lu Xuan immediately realized that Hubu Shangshu might have said a crucial clue, and she hurriedly cheered up and listened to him intently-
"It seems that a few men in black were sneaking around in the treasury that night, and although I was suspicious, I didn't go up to check carefully, but I only heard them talking about the cabinet, the West Factory, and the like."
Cabinet Lu Xuan knows that Lu Yan was framed and must have nothing to do with it, but what about the West Factory? Could it have something to do with that?
The case seems to be more complicated than Lu Xuan thought, and there seem to be more and more people involved.
"What else do you know?" Lu Xuan hurriedly asked the head of the household, but he shook his head: "It's been too long since the events of that year, and I can't remember many details clearly, I only know that there is a commander in the West Factory, and it seems that he has been having some holidays with Lord Lu." ”
"Xichang, the commander...... What did the adults say about Wang Yong? Lu Xuan immediately thought of this person, after all, he could have such a solid foundation in the West Factory, and it must have been accumulated for many years.
Hearing this, Hubu Shangshu nodded hurriedly: "That's right, he was the one who presented Lord Lu's crime to His Majesty back then, and His Majesty originally only planned to dismiss Lord Lu from his post and confiscate his family, and the later capital crime seems to have been begged by him." ”
In other words, Wang Yong is not only Lu Xuan's opponent, but also the direct murderer who killed her father?
Lu Xuan was so annoyed that she rushed out of the house without saying a word.
When he went out, he was bumped into by Chen Weizhi again, seeing that Lu Xuan was full of anger, and he was like two people who were gentle and elegant on weekdays, he didn't even have to think much about it to know that something must have happened, so he hurriedly chased her out in the direction she left.
But as soon as he stepped out of the door of the house, he saw that Lu Xuan was knocked unconscious and brought a fast horse, Chen Weizhi was suddenly anxious, and hurriedly chased after him.
But after all, there is a world of difference between the strength of human feet and horses, and they have disappeared after a few steps.
Chen Wei was flustered for a while, Lu Xuan's situation has not been very optimistic recently, and she seems to have been stared at by more people since she became the governor of the fourth grade.
Everyone is full of malice towards Lu Xuan, if she is allowed to be taken away like this, what kind of consequences will be there is really not something Chen Weizhi can predict.
can be Chen Weizhi's ability and manpower, if he wants to find Lu Xuan, it is simply looking for a needle in a haystack, and when he finds it, I am afraid that she has already encountered an accident, and it is not a way to blindly find it like this.
Trying hard to calm himself down, Chen Weizhi regained his usual wisdom, and the only person who could find out a person's whereabouts effortlessly in Shengjing City was probably the secret guard of the Murderous King's Mansion.
Although Chen Weizhi didn't want to face Gu Huanli, let alone Lu Xuan to have anything to do with him again, at the moment, compared to Lu Xuan's life, these were just trivial things. Number Seven
Thinking about it like this, Chen Weizhi rushed towards the Fierce King's Mansion without saying a word.
It was rare to see Chen Weizhi come to his mansion, and Gu Huanli teased him at the first glance when he saw him: "What kind of wind blew Chen Langzhong to this king's mansion?" What is Chen Langzhong's noble doing? ”
But Chen Weizhi not only ignored Gu Huanli's ridicule, but didn't even have time to salute before he shouted at him: "Go and save Lu Xuan." ”
Hearing this, the expression on Gu Huanli's face immediately became serious, and then he frowned at him and asked, "What did you say?" What happened to Lu Xuan? ”
"She just came out of the household and was knocked unconscious and taken on a horse and robbed, I didn't have time to chase it, so I could only come and ask you to find someone." Chen Weizhi simply informed Gu Huanli of Fang Cai's matter.
Knowing that Lu Xuan was in danger, Gu Huanli didn't have time to hesitate at all, and immediately said to Lin Wei as he walked: "Take the secret guard and follow this king to find someone." ”
With an order, all the secret guards of the Fierce King's Mansion immediately divided into several ways to secretly find Lu Xuan's whereabouts, and Gu Huanli and Chen Weizhi also temporarily put aside their prejudices against each other and colluded with her.
On the other side, Lu Xuan left the household in a rage, and before he could figure out the situation, he was knocked unconscious and thrown on the horse, and when he opened his eyes again, it was already a strange place.
"Where am I?" Lu Xuan muttered to himself, slowly opened his eyes with a severe headache, and his mind suddenly went blank, and he didn't even remember what he was planning to do.
Until a somewhat familiar face suddenly appeared in front of him, accompanied by a grim smile and said to Lu Xuan: "Lord Lu is awake?" The official's subordinates made a heavier move, and they also looked at Lord Lu Haihan. ”
Lu Xuan recognized the person in front of her at a glance, although she hadn't fought with him too much before, his name often appeared and lingered in her memory.
Recognizing the person in front of him, Lu Xuan immediately remembered his anger, and then glared at the other party viciously: "Wang Yong, you despicable villain!" ”
Seeing that Lu Xuan opened his mouth and insulted himself, the originally gloomy smile on Wang Yong's face immediately froze, and he turned to look at Lu Xuan with a serious face: "Don't toast and don't eat and drink." ”
Lu Xuan didn't feel scared at all because of this, but asked Wang Yong even more angrily: "Is my father's framing related to you?" ”
Wang Yong couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, but after a while, he laughed: "I didn't expect that you, the governor of the fourth grade, are so competent, and you can find out my head so quickly, you really deserve to be Lu Yan's descendant." ”
Seeing Wang Yong's confession, Lu Xuan couldn't bear it, and immediately reprimanded him: "You are a villain, you are not worthy of calling my father's name." ”
Wang Yong didn't like to hear this, and he immediately retorted to Lu Xuan: "I'm a villain, do you think your father is a decent gentleman?" If it weren't for him, how could I have lost my only son? He caused my Wang family to cut off the incense, and I took his life as a repayment, which is already generous. ”
"Nonsense, how could my father harm your son." Lu Xuan flatly denied it.
Wang Yong was right: "If you don't believe it, you can go back and ask your mother to see if Lu Yan took my son to the mountain bandits and killed my wife with hatred when he suppressed the bandits, and my Wang Yong's wife was scattered all thanks to him Lu Yan." ”
Lu Xuan didn't want to believe that her father would be the person he said he was, but he didn't seem to be lying from the bottom of his heart and in such a excited tone that he didn't seem to be lying.
"So you hate the Lu family and frame my father on this ground?" Lu Xuan asked Wang Yong, but he shook his head: "It's not me who framed your father, I just said a few kind words in front of Your Majesty, and asked Your Majesty to change the living crime to a capital crime." ”
This doesn't seem like a lie, but being able to say things that harm people so lightly shows that Wang Yong has long lost his conscience.
Lu Xuan didn't bother to argue with him, and then asked him: "Who was the person who framed my father back then?" ”
Wang Yong sneered when he heard this: "Want to find out the news from me, so that you can clear up Lu Yan's grievances?" Don't! I will let him carry this charge on his back for ten thousand years, and he will never be able to turn over. ”
"Bastard!" Lu Xuan couldn't hold back and scolded Wang Yong, he immediately approached her, and glared at her viciously with a pair of eyes: "Yes, I'm a bastard, I was careless when I didn't kill you at the Lantern Festival that day, and no one will save you today." ”
Lu Xuan was stunned when he heard this: "You really sent someone to kill me that night?" ”
Wang Yong did not deny it, but was straightforward: "Lu Yan harmed my parents and sons, gave birth to a son and obstructed my meritorious work in every possible way, I naturally want to send his good son to him to honor him." ”
Seeing that Wang Yong's expression at this time didn't seem to be joking, Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel a burst of panic in his heart.
