Chapter 47: Is This Motivation Enough?

ยท

On this day, Shen Ge ordered someone to prepare a birthday gift and changed into a formal suit. But just as she was about to leave the house, a maidservant girl came from the other end of the corridor with her head bowed, she came to Shen Ge with a box in her hand, and whispered, "My lord, you forgot to bring this." โ€

Shen Ge looked at her steadily, then looked around with his eyebrows raised, and made sure that everyone was waiting for him outside the mansion, so he took her hand and took her to his courtyard.

Until the courtyard door was closed.

At the side of the pavilion tree, which was not too spacious, Shen Ge finally let go of her, frowned and asked, "What's the matter?" Why are you so hot? โ€

Ruan Huai raised his head, his voice still sounding weak, but he spoke calmly: "Let's not talk about this first, have you found someone to check the birthday banquet of Lord Lu?" โ€

Shen Ge stared at her overly pale face and said, "I've checked it, but I haven't found anything suspicious." โ€

"What about the diet?"

Shen Ge's face became even more solemn: "Do you suspect that the prince will poison Gu Yutang?" They shouldn't have used such shoddy means. โ€

Ruan Huai shook his head lightly, looked at Shen Ge and said, "It's to poison Lu Xinzhu and frame Gu Yutang." Yiqing had reported to me before, saying that someone had secretly bought bone erosion poison from a medical center under Ah Chang's jurisdiction. โ€

Shen Ge groaned for a moment, and said uncertainly: "Gu Yutang doesn't have this motive, what are they going to frame him?" โ€

But Ruan Huai's words were answered quickly, "In order to win the Southern Dynasty "Southern Formation Map" in Lu Xinzhu's hand, Gu Yutang grasped the handle of the Southern Dynasty and further strengthened his military strength, is this motive enough?" โ€

Hearing this, Shen Ge was silent, and after a while, he asked, "What do you want to do?" โ€

Ruan Huai suddenly frowned, coughed twice, turned his head back, and said in a low voice, "I'm going to sneak into the county lord's mansion." โ€

The sky outside the Nanjun Lord's Mansion was washed out of a dull gray, and the snow accumulated on the neatly arranged hollow eaves, and when the wind blew, the ribbons that adorned the edge of the plaque fluttered with the wind, flying with the aimless snow. It was so cold that everyone who came to the birthday party had to dust off the frost when they entered the house.

And at this time, in the boudoir, Lu Xinzhu was dressed up, she looked down and carefully looked at the list of guests who visited, and after looking for a while, after finally finding the word "Gu Yutang", Lu Xinzhu's heart settled down a little.

"The county lord is so beautiful today." The maidservant stood behind her and couldn't help but praise.

There was a faint smile between Lu Xinzhu's eyebrows, "Don't make fun of me yet." โ€

She got up and said, "Let's go."

The lord of Nanjun was sent to Kyoto by the Southern Dynasty when he was a child, so he grew up with several high-spirited and powerful sons in Kyoto, among which she was most familiar with them, except for those princes, Han Chi, Su Chen, and Gu Yutang.

His Majesty the Emperor valued Lu Xinzhu very much, so although he did not attend in person, he also sent people from the palace to send valuable congratulatory gifts. Naturally, the other princes will not be ambiguous.

But she didn't just hold this birthday party today just to celebrate her birthday.

Lu Xinzhu entertained every guest of honor at the banquet, until he saw Gu Yutang in the crowd.

He came with Su Chen and them, and after entering the county lord's mansion, he came to their side.

Therefore, Lu Xinzhu stood in place, his posture elegant and bright.
