Chapter 176: King Xian is missing
The deceased was reluctant to give up day and night, he had been away from Yinnan for more than two months, Lu Jing's heart was anxious, but the emperor did not let him go back, so he could only stand still. It's just that staying in the capital, he can't receive a single word about Yinnan, which makes him more and more anxious, he is worried about too many things, whether the locusts that were driven away before have come back, and to what extent has the post-disaster reconstruction work in Pingcheng progressed.
He is now black-eyed, and he doesn't know what to ask, and this blank feeling makes him very at a loss. It began to rain outside again, Lu Jingzhi's mood became more and more depressed, he wanted to rush into the palace, ask the emperor who was high above, and detain him in the capital and ignore what his intentions were?
However, he looked back at the lady who was embroidered with low eyebrows and lowered eyes, and thought of his daughter who lived in the mansion of King Xian, and his excited heart suddenly quieted down. He can't be impulsive, because he doesn't have the capital to be impulsive, he is the head of the family, and if he offends the holy face because of this, it will be his wife or his child who suffers.
So he has no choice but to endure now. But when will these dark days come to an end? Lu Jingzhi can't find the answer, and he can't hope for the light, anxiety has made his reason more and more loose, and his duty as a courtier makes him like an ant on a hot pot now, like sitting on pins and needles.
He waited for a few more days, and the mouth hanging in his throat couldn't go up or down, it was really uncomfortable. He thought about it and thought about it, and decided to be willful, he didn't want to think about those who didn't have it, and now he just wanted to return to Yinnan as soon as possible, he wanted to be an eagle, not a powerless canary trapped in the capital.
"You said my father was here?" Lu Anjin hadn't gotten up yet, and she hadn't washed yet, after hearing the housekeeper's report, she got up from the bed quickly, got dressed, washed up quickly, and hurried out. As he walked, he said, "When did you come?" ”
The housekeeper followed behind her, and replied in 1510, "Back to the princess, Lord Lu came for about half an hour, and the subordinates told the princess that she had not yet gotten up, and the princess ordered the princess to rest for a while, so the subordinates did not come to report to the princess." ”
Lu Anjin never thought that his father would come to the Xianwang Mansion at this point, although His Majesty has given her and Qi Xiaoyun a marriage, but now they have not yet married, moreover, her father is a well-known neutral faction in the court, never standing in line, coming to the Xianwang Mansion at this sensitive time, in the eyes of outsiders, this undoubtedly represents an attitude.
"Daddy," Lu Anjin didn't care about breakfast, walked into the flower hall quickly, saluted Lu Jingzhi respectfully, and asked urgently: "Daddy, why did you come here at this time, what happened?" But not feeling well? How is my mother? ”
Lu Jingzhi smiled lightly, "You asked your father so many questions in one go, which one do you want your father to answer first?" Seeing Lu Anjin's anxious face, he replied with a smile, "Daddy is in good health, whether it's your mother or not, Daddy came today because he couldn't make up his mind about something, and he wanted to discuss it with you." ”
Lu Anjin breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly asked Lu Jingzhi to sit down, and after the maid served tea to the two, she consciously retreated, and closed the door for the two of them with a very good look. The housekeeper heard that they had something important to talk about, and he wanted to retreat, but he didn't want Lu Anjin to let him stay.
"Not long after my father and I returned to the capital, there are many situations that we are not very clear, and you must know more than us." She had already guessed what her father was going to ask, and her father had always been happy, and what thoughts were undoubtedly revealed on his face. "Besides, I may need your help."
Lu Anjin said very politely, and the housekeeper hurriedly said: "Princess, it is within the scope of your subordinates to solve problems for the master, if you have any questions, just speak directly." The princess can rest assured that if her subordinates know, they will definitely know everything. ”
"Jin'er, as the prefect of Yinnan, his father should seek well-being for the people of Yinnan, but his father has been trapped in the capital for more than two months, and I don't know what is happening to the people of Yinnan, and my father is anxious now. Jin'er, my father wants you to think of a way, can I let my father leave the capital and return to Yinnan. ”
"Daddy, my daughter knows that you care about the people of Yinnan, don't worry," Lu Anjin turned around, looked at the housekeeper standing quietly behind her, and asked modestly, "After Your Majesty summoned your father back to Beijing, she has been ignoring it, and your heart is unpredictable, I really can't think of it, what does Your Majesty want to go to such great lengths?" ”
It seems that suspicion and suspicion are the common disease of every emperor, and today's saint is even better than blue, he doesn't trust anyone, even his cronies, he also maintains a suspicion. Therefore, being with a person of this character is tantamount to tying your head to the waistband of your pants, with a risk factor of five stars.
The housekeeper pondered for a moment and pondered for a long time, Lu Anjin saw his embarrassed look, and smiled faintly, "Uncle, you are the old man in the palace, Daddy has a straightforward personality, and he doesn't like to be euphemistic, Uncle has something to say, it doesn't matter, Daddy won't mind." ”
"Returning to the princess," the housekeeper glanced at Lu Jingzhi, who was not calm, and then at Lu Anjin, who had a calm face, both father and daughter are very interesting people. "If Lord Lu wants to return to Yinnan, he can go directly to the palace to face the saint."
When Lu Jingzhi heard the title of the housekeeper, his eyebrows moved, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, what is the situation, Jin'er has not yet married King Xian, why do the people in the palace of King Xian call it randomly. If this spreads, it will be a fatal blow to Jin'er's reputation.
He glanced at Lu Anjin with disapproval, but seeing her calm face, there was no difference on her face, obviously, he was used to this title. He sighed heavily, thinking to himself, Jin'er's heart was afraid that it had already turned here.
"This official has always been very puzzled, why does Your Majesty ignore this official," Lu Jingzhi was a little uncomfortable, "This official prides himself on doing his best for the people of Yinnan, and has not done anything to be sorry for the people of Yinnan, if His Majesty is dissatisfied with this official, he can directly reprimand him, why do you snub this official like this?" ”
His mood was really unhappy, but he couldn't say these dissatisfactions, so he could only be suffocated in his heart. After enduring it for so long, now I finally can't hold it back, and in front of the people closest to me, I pour out my bitterness in a big gulp, hoping that this can sweep away the depression in my heart.
"Lord Lu is honest and honest, it is the blue sky in the hearts of the people, since the adults have made up their minds to return to Yinnan, it is better to preemptively enter the palace to face the saint, and tell Your Majesty everything that the adults think in their hearts, I believe that Your Majesty will definitely understand the painstaking efforts of the adults, and let the adults return to Yinnan this morning."
But if this is the case, the princess will also follow Lord Lu to return to Yinnan, which is definitely not good news for the prince. The prince can't wait to stick to the princess's side every day, a person with a cold temperament like the prince can become so clingy, he has to sigh, the power of love is really great.
Lu Jingzhi already had a plan in his heart, and when he came here, he couldn't have blessed himself with some courage, but now even the housekeeper of the Xian Wangfu thought so, so he was even more fearless.
This kind of thing is not too late, he is not willing to stay for a second now, and after chatting with Lu Anjin for a few words, he said goodbye impatiently.
Lu Anjin sent his father away, and asked the housekeeper beside him with a smile, "Uncle, do you say that your father will run directly to the palace when he leaves the palace?" ”
"The subordinates think that Lord Lu is dedicated to the people, and he has reached the limit of his endurance until now, since the Lord is willing to risk being misunderstood to come to the Xianwang Mansion, then he must not be willing to delay a little longer now."
Lu Anjin remembered the impatient appearance of his father, and smiled even more, "Uncle, then what do you think Your Majesty will think?" ”
The housekeeper lowered his head and thought for a moment, and then replied in a deep voice, "Your Majesty is now afraid of the military power in the hands of the prince, and has long wanted to weaken the prince's power. And Lord Lu, as a minister of the imperial court, is a model for all students to learn. ”
"And then?"
"Now Your Majesty has no choice but to give the princess to the prince, and I must be dissatisfied with Lord Lu in my heart. The subordinates dared to guess that His Majesty now wanted Lord Lu to leave the capital, so that the prince would have one less help. ”
Lu Anjin nodded, "Uncle's analysis is extremely good, daddy is pure by nature, honest and loyal, the reason why Your Majesty snubbed daddy like this is just to warn daddy." ”
As for what to warn about, the people present are not stupid, and they naturally know it clearly.
"Okay, since Daddy has already entered the palace to face the saint, then I will also pack my things and prepare to leave."
When the butler heard this, a trace of embarrassment flashed on his face, and he hesitated for a long time, and then asked in a low voice: "Princess, the prince is now on the march, if he learns the news of your departure from Beijing, I am afraid that he will be in a bad mood." ”
Before he finished speaking, he only saw Ling Fengfei running over, Su Ri's expressionless face was extremely pale at this time, Lu Anjin felt a sigh in his heart, and he always felt that something bad had happened.
As it turned out, her hunch was not wrong.
I only heard Ling Feng say hurriedly: "Princess, the prince is missing." ”
Lu Anjin's face turned white, and she couldn't help but take a step back, she asked in a trembling voice, "What did you just say?" ”
Ling Feng knelt on one knee on the ground, his voice extremely heavy, "I just came from the army that the prince was ambushed in Tiger Beach, and now his whereabouts are unknown. ”
Lu Anjin was distracted for a moment, she looked down at Ling Feng's lowered head, was silent for a long time, and walked quickly towards the palace. As she walked, she explained, "When Daddy comes back from the palace, let him come to see me immediately." ”
Back in the room, Lu Anjin quickly packed her luggage, and while she was packing, she said to the housekeeper, "Uncle, I'm going to find the prince, and my father's return to Yinnan will be handed over to you." ”
The housekeeper was also very anxious, but he couldn't leave the capital at this time, and the capital still needed him to control it. Now, he only hopes that the princess can successfully get the princess back, which is more important than anything else.
"Although the princess can rest assured, her subordinates understand!"
Lu Anjin explained again uneasily, "Daddy leaves Beijing, Your Majesty will definitely not rest assured, and will definitely send someone to follow." Uncle, those people are either used by me or killed! ”
