Chapter 516: Down to Huaiyang
Shen Xi looked outside the house and sighed softly: "I'm afraid that after this rain, Huaiyang will also start to get cold."
Lu Qingyi didn't speak, he stood side by side with Shen Xi and looked at the heavy rain outside the window.
This night, lightning and thunder roared, and the funeral in Shufu continued, but in the dead of night, except for a few people who were guarding the soul sitting next to the coffin, the rest of the people had already slept, and the whole Shufu fell into silence.
Feng Sheng hid on the beam of the house in a night coat, under the beam, in the candlelight, Shu Jia's expression was very nervous, he looked at the man opposite, and said softly: "Second prince, Lu Qingyi, they have already noticed something, if he really finds out the truth of the matter at that time, I am afraid that my life will not be guaranteed."
Chang Wen's face was indifferent, he poured himself a cup of tea, and smiled at Shu Jiawaner, "With me here, what are you panicking about?" ”
He abandoned the capital to come to Huaiyang this time, in order to secretly stop Lu Qingyi, since he came, he would not let himself return empty-handed.
"But the second prince, Lu Qingyi and Shen Xi are not easy people to deal with, I'm afraid you may not be able to stop them." After Shu Jia said this, he lowered his head, not daring to look at Chang Wen's sharp eyes.
"Are you questioning me?" Chang Wen was slightly angry in his words, he stared at Shu Jia, put the teacup in his hand on the table, and let the tea spill on the table, his anger frightened Shu Jia and quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.
"Second prince, how dare I question you! It's just that Lu Qingyi and they are so hateful, I'm afraid that we will be self-defeating when the time comes. Shu Jia knelt on the ground, trembling, he had killed one of his daughters with his own hands to protect the entire Shu Mansion, and he could no longer withstand any toss.
"You are questioning me now, I tell you, we can only win this battle, if we lose, your Shufu will no longer exist." Chang Wen's voice was low, but it was not difficult to hear the anger in his words.
Shu Jia's face was already covered with cold sweat, his whole body was trembling, he knew what kind of person Chang Wen was, in his eyes, except for power, there was no one or anything, if this time he really asked Lu Qingyi and them to mess up Huaiyang, Chang Wen would have done it to destroy his entire Shu Mansion.
"Get out! Don't let anyone know about my visit to Huaiyang, including your wife. Chang Wen immediately snorted coldly, "Otherwise, how could Lu Qingyi and the others want to investigate this matter this time." ”
Shu Jia didn't dare to say anything, only answered slightly and opened the door and went out.
And Feng Sheng also took this opportunity to leave Fangliang and rushed back to the Lin Mansion regardless of the wind and rain.
Lu Qingyi hadn't slept yet, he was reading the book written by Shen Xi, and the candle flame was lit up, setting off his handsome face very gently, even if he was reading Shen Xi's book, his face was different from ordinary people.
"Childe, the second prince did come to Huaiyang, and now he lives in Shu Jia's mansion, and Shu Ting was indeed killed by Shu Jia." Feng Sheng's tone was very calm and indifferent, but Shen Xi, who had just pushed the door in, was stunned, even though she was mentally prepared, but when she learned the truth of the matter, she still felt very surprised.
Lu Qingyi's face suddenly became heavy after hearing about it, Shen Xi walked to his side and said slightly, "It's all a group of crazy people, the second prince has done so much evil, isn't he afraid of retribution?" ”
"Retribution? He killed my grandparents and your aunt, do you think he is afraid of retribution? He was afraid that he would not get the throne. Lu Qingyi sneered at this, and the dim candle flame portrayed his face harshly.
Since ancient times, the struggle for the throne, how many people will become victims, and how much blood will flow, the struggle for power will never stop, Shen Xi can't help but sigh, people live for a lifetime, if only for power, I am afraid that they will lose their true happiness.

"Now what are we going to do? When the second prince comes, he will inevitably secretly stop the banquet the day after tomorrow. "The reason why Chang Wen came here is to stop them, and he will definitely do something tomorrow, but they don't know what he wants to do.
"The banquet for the day after tomorrow must be held, if they don't come, we will directly ask Lord Lin to call someone to arrest those merchants for interrogation, each of them has a stain on their backs, and the evidence is already there, what are you afraid of?" Lu Qingyi glanced at Shen Xi with a blank expression.
"Who knows what the second prince will do!" Shen Xi was always uneasy in his heart, Chang Wen came to Huaiyang thousands of miles away to stop them, how could he return empty-handed.
"Won't we go to Shufu tomorrow to visit him?" Lu Qingyi hooked his lips and smiled, he seemed to have a countermeasure.
Shen Xi didn't speak again, turned around and went back to his room to rest.
Because of the heavy rain, the weather in Huaiyang has also changed, but in just one night, the temperature in Huaiyang has dropped to the lowest, and Lu Qingyi's cold illness has also occurred in time.
Shen Xi looked at Lu Qingyi's purple lips, and was worried that Lu Qingyi was very worried, she stepped forward and said softly: "Why don't you rest at home today, even if you find the second prince, you can't do anything."
Lu Qingyi endured the pain of broken ribs, and there were fine beads of sweat on his face, he looked at Shen Xi, "We have to go, we have to let him know that he can't stop us." ”
"But can your body resist it?" Shen Xi let out a long sigh, her eyebrows were worried, she had not suffered this kind of pain, but just looking at Lu Qingyi's appearance, she felt that this level of pain was not something she could bear.
At the beginning, Chang Wen gave him this kind of poison in order to torture Lu Qingyi for the rest of his life.
Lu Qingyi stretched out his cold hand, straightened her broken hair for Shen Xi, and smiled like a spring breeze, "Don't worry, I can bear it." ”
Shen Xi grabbed Lu Qingyi's cold hand and did not speak.
Shufu's funeral has ended, and Shu Ting's body was also carried to the mountain by Shu Jia early to be buried, but those white lanterns and cloth strips are still hanging on the house, and those white flower balls on the beams are still hanging.
When Shen Xi saw this scene, he sneered in his heart, Shu Jia held such a grand funeral, it was nothing more than out of guilt for Shu Ting. But no matter how grand the funeral is, what's the use of people who are no longer there, Shen Xi is the most unaccustomed to seeing a fake person like Shu Jia.
After Shu Jia saw Lu Qingyi and Shen Xi, he entertained with a smile, after all, he had promised Lu Qingyi to investigate Shu Ting's case well, and he naturally didn't dare to slack off.
"Master Shu, we are not here today to investigate the case." Lu Qingyi's voice was cold, and his face was a little pale.
"It's not an investigation, then what is the matter with Lu Gongzi today, if there is something, you just give the right order, and we will fully cooperate." Shu Jia was slightly stunned, but soon his complexion returned to normal.
"I heard that the second prince came to Huaiyang and has already lived in your mansion, so come and take a look." Lu Qingyi's words were like a thunderclap on the ground!
