Chapter 1054: Return to Beijing

Lu Wenru was stunned by Lu Heng's question, thought carefully about what the saint had done in recent days, and said with a wry smile: "How do I feel that the saint seems to be enchanted, and he is crazy for the treasure and the imperial tomb." ”

Lu Heng nodded, "He has secured the throne, he has deep expectations for the future, and the world attaches more importance to the mourning behind him, so he is naturally in a hurry to build the imperial mausoleum." It's just that he is too anxious, and he believes too much in his absolute rule over the Great Zhou Dynasty. So much so that they forgot the hearts of the people and what the courtiers cared about most. ”

It is human nature for courtiers to want to be promoted and make a fortune, but no one wants to be by the tyrant's side.

Even the nobles of Prince Zhongshun's great military achievements were treated like that by the saints, not to mention their ordinary ministers?

The Son of Heaven left Beijing for no reason, which had already caused turmoil in the hearts of the people in the DPRK. Coupled with the news that Xiao Xiao was treated like that, and the fire dragon incident that has occurred in Jingang now, I believe that the already unstable people's hearts will be even more unstable.

"If I'm not mistaken, the saint will leave for Beijing in the near future." Lu Heng took a sip of tea and said slowly.

Lu Wenru's heart jumped, and he said worriedly: "Uncle, when the Holy Lord returns to Beijing, I'm afraid he will dispose of the treasure, and I don't know if the Holy Lord believes you or not, if Prince Zhongshun finds out something wrong with us, and the Holy Lord blames it, what should we do?"

Lu Heng smiled and did not immediately answer Lu Wenru's words.

He was just using the background of the family and the saint's suspicion of the owl to buy himself some time.

"Am I going to stay and die?" Lu Heng smiled lightly, picked up the tea bowl and concentrated on tasting tea.

Lu Wenru was stunned for a moment, and then understood everything.

He was a little worried that Lu Heng would leave him alone at the critical moment. After all, if there is really a time to run for his life, under the heavy pursuit, Lu Heng should not care about others, right?

But Lu Wenru has been serving Lu Heng for all these years, and he feels that he knows a lot of secrets around Lu Heng, if Lu Heng doesn't bring him, he is afraid that he will leak the secrets, right?

Or will he kill him?

When Lu Wenru thought of this, the hairs on his body stood up.

He just wants to be a safe follower, but he doesn't want to be involved in these things!

Lu Heng seemed to see Lu Wenru's worry, and smiled and said, "You have been preparing for life these days, so that you can go on the road." ”

These words are too ambiguous, and Lu Wen is like a spirit.

Lu Heng couldn't help but burst out laughing when he saw him like this, "What do you want." Am I the kind of person who runs for my life? Don't worry, even if you don't take Bian, I will take you. ”

Touching the cold sweat on his forehead, Lu Wenru smiled bitterly, "Uncle, don't make fun of the villain." ”

Lu Heng shook his head, "Where is the teasing, it's just for all the Lu family members to live a stable life in the future." As the patriarch of the Lu family, I have never forgotten the importance of the family for a moment. By the way, how did you do what you were asked to do? ”

Lu Wenru immediately straightened up, lowered his voice and said, "It's done, just wait for the news." ”

"Okay, then you can stay with me these days and do what you are told." Lu Heng smiled and nodded.

A fire-breathing dragon flew from the Golden Harbor, burned the docks, and destroyed all the ships that the Holy Lord wanted to repair the Emperor's Tomb, this news seemed to have grown wings, and everyone in the capital knew the news.

However, Li Qitian was not angry at this time, and there were secret guards from the places where the stones were transported one after another, and no treasures were found in those places.

A total of ten directions were transported, and Li Qitian robbed one of the roads by himself, and four of the remaining nine roads were determined to have no treasures. Li Qitian pinned his hopes on the rest of the five roads to achieve results. After all, his treasury is now stretched thin.

The limited amount of silver had been allocated to Lu Heng a few days ago to purchase new stones. Now that the ships have been destroyed and the timber has been reduced to ashes, he has to find another good timber, and that would be another expense? The money was all pressed in the stone factory, and if there was any big thing that needed to be used for it, he would have nowhere to find money!

The corners of Li Qitian's mouth bubbled overnight.

The rumors of the golden harbor fire dragon in the partial capital city were also uneasy.

He also knew that it was taboo for the Son of Heaven to leave the capital, so he immediately ordered people to prepare to leave for Beijing.

Xiong Jinshui asked: "Saint, Prince Zhongshun's body is not yet well, the doctor said that Prince Zhongshun is really not suitable to move around this time, please give me instructions, do you want to bring Prince Zhongshun on this trip?" ”

"Can't move around? Then let people lift. Li Qitian sneered, "Even if it is carried up, I have to carry him back to the capital for me." I still have something to ask him! And Lu Heng, you all serve me well, and don't let Uncle Lu make any mistakes. ”

Xiong Jinshui hurriedly saluted, "Yes, the slave obeys the order, and the slave will do it." ”

Xiong Jinshui left the back office, stood on the verandah and gasped for breath a few times, only then calmed down the panic in his heart. It's not that he coaxed, it's really that the saint is in a bad mood these days, moody, and yesterday he accidentally spilled a drop of water when a small waiter poured tea and pulled people out and beat twenty boards, he circled around the saint all day long, and he really didn't dare to act carelessly. I am afraid that I will also be caught and punished heavily.

Xiong Jinshui felt that his face was about to turn into a bitter gourd face like Imperial Doctor Gao.

It's just that he doesn't dare to let others see it with a sad face, and in front of people, he is still the steady manager.

Along the way, he crossed the courtyard and asked to see Prince Zhongshun, and after a while, an entourage respectfully invited him in.

Xiong Jinshui naturally didn't dare to hold it up in front of the owl, even if he was beaten by the saint, he was still very afraid.

"The slave and maid have asked the prince to say goodbye. The prince's complexion looked much better. ”

Xiao Xiao's hair was scattered, and a dark blue robe was draped over his snow-white middle coat, and he coughed weakly twice when he heard this, and under Tang Xiu's service, he leaned on the big pillow and changed from lying on his stomach to sitting sideways.

"Father-in-law Xiong doesn't have to be polite, I'm afraid that this king's body is sick, and he won't get better for a while. My father-in-law came here, but what did the Holy One command? ”

Looking at Xiao Xiao's pale face and pale lips, Xiong Jinshui gritted his teeth and said, "Lord Wang, the Holy Lord has already instructed to prepare to return to Beijing, and he will leave about the day after tomorrow, so he specially ordered the slave maid to tell you." He paused for a moment to look at the color of the bird, and said: "There are many imperial doctors in the capital, and the medical skills are good, so the prince can recover as soon as possible when he returns to Beijing, and he can do an errand for the saint as soon as possible." ”

Although Xiong Jinshui was a person next to Li Qitian, he didn't want to generalize, let alone embarrass people, so he said with a smile: "Thank you Father-in-law Xiong, since it is the will of the saint, this king will definitely obey it, so I will order people to prepare and return to Beijing with the saint." ”

I didn't expect Xiao Xiao to be so easy to speak.

Xiong Jinshui was overjoyed in his heart, secretly thinking that Prince Zhongshun might really not be as dangerous as the saint thought, so he happily complied and turned to send a decree to the Lu Mansion.

Xiong Jinshui left, and Tang Xiu asked Xiao Xiao, "Lord Wang, do we really want to follow the saint back to Beijing?" ”
