Xiao Xiao's mind flickered, and he immediately understood Lu Heng's intentions.

At this time, Lu Heng must have determined that the treasure was in the stone factory. The arrival of the queen and Concubine Zhuang added a layer of pressure to Lu Heng, and there were more people staring at his movements, and they were still able to reach the heavens, and it became more and more impossible to transport things out secretly.

Therefore, he is trying to find a way to act openly and honestly, but also to make it impossible for others to interfere in this matter.

The two of them are both political enemies and love enemies, and the contradictions have long been irreconcilable. Mo said that at the moment, they want to eat a pot of rice, even if they are close on the surface, they have to wear a pair of pants, and it is impossible to let go of the defense in their hearts.

Xiao Xiao couldn't help but think from Lu Heng's point of view.

Lu Heng must have thought that only he knew about the treasure.

Therefore, Lu Heng will definitely find a way to exclude him from the ranks of those who can access the stone factory.

How to crowd out?

That must have been to make him speak out on his own.

How to get him to quit willingly?

Let him feel the crisis! Let him feel that continuing to meddle in the matter of the stone factory is likely to bring bad consequences!

The Lu family has a deep foundation, and in the construction of the imperial mausoleum, the process of buying and selling materials must be inseparable from Lu Heng's power, so if he participates in it, it is very likely that he will be stumbling in the middle of the link.

In all dynasties, most of the officials who built the imperial tombs did not end well, and bribery and shoddy were all reasons to kill their heads. If he doesn't take advantage of the trend, it is really possible that Lu Heng will be labeled with such a hat in the future.

They are all people who understand, and they guessed Lu Heng's purpose, and he can immediately determine that Lu Heng's purpose in making this suggestion is to force him to withdraw on his own initiative and no longer interfere in all matters related to the materials needed for the construction of the imperial tomb. In this way, he can naturally move the treasure.

Xiao Xiao's heart was spinning, but it was the time of the blink of an eye, he smiled slightly, and said admiringly: "Zhongyi Bo is thoughtful, this king is ashamed of himself." ”

Lu Heng smiled slightly, "The prince is too modest." ”

Xiao Xiao smiled and said: "This king has a reluctant request, I don't know if Zhongyi Uncle can accept it." ”

Lu Heng's smile deepened, "Lord Wang, please command." ”

"This king is a big and rough man, the most impatient person. The materials for the construction of the imperial tomb are very mixed, and there are a lot of piles on the stone factory, and the king has a headache when he sees it. In my opinion, it is better to hand over the materials for the construction of the imperial tomb to Zhongyi Bo to manage. In this way, the uncle can take care of it more thoroughly, and the king is also lazy, I don't know what the uncle thinks? ”

"This, since the prince commands, I will naturally obey orders."

"Then I'm going to be biased against you."

"Don't dare to be a low-ranking official, do things for the saint, and do your best." Lu Heng said with a smile: "Since the prince does not object, the matter of investigating the materials will be carried out by the lower officials, and after the holy one is approved, the implementation will begin." ”

Neither of them has the right to make decisions in private about the construction of the imperial mausoleum, so they naturally have to reply before they can act.

Xiao Xiao smiled and nodded: "The matter of materials, just listen to the loyal and righteous uncle." ”

Lu Heng was satisfied, and chatted with Xiao Xiao again.

The two of them have their own thoughts, but they don't seem embarrassed at all when they chat.

Before Lu Heng came, he had actually expected that Xiao Xiao would definitely nod and agree. This person keeps saying that he is a big boss and is impatient to take care of these things, but Lu Heng knows that if this person is a big boss, he may not live to this day at all.

He has a very keen sense of smell, as if he was born to avoid danger.

Since his Lu family has the ability to meddle in the matter of the imperial mausoleum materials, even if he doesn't come to the door in person today, he may have to find an opportunity to retreat in the future, so as not to be relied on in the future.

Now he took this opportunity to make this request, and sure enough, he agreed.

On the way back to the palace, Lu Heng was in a good mood all the way.

When he goes to the saint, he can start investigating.

When the time comes, it will be easy to move the treasure.

And after Lu Heng said goodbye, Xiao Xiao immediately told Qin Yining about today's events.

Qin Yining was originally embroidering, and when he heard this, he didn't have the heart to do any work, so he put down the embroidery and groaned: "He's forcing you to let go." ”

"yes." Xiao Xiao knew that Qin Yining was smart, and she could guess the details of many things at a glance. But as soon as he said something, Qin Yining was immediately able to get to the point, which still made Xiao Xiao couldn't help but admire and break his heart.

Qin Yining quickly went over the current situation in his heart, and then smiled: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with this. Now that the stones and the like have been restored and untouched, let's retreat at this time, so as not to let him really frame him. Now that we are safe and we are safe, he can concentrate on the treasure, which is a double thing. ”

Xiao Xiao smiled and nodded, "Lu Heng should have made such an inference." ”

"Of course, he doesn't know that we already know where the treasure is, so in his eyes, you are just frightened by his threats and take the opportunity to avoid risks."

Qin Yining's eyes fluttered, and he said, "It's okay, if he wants to go to the sparse saint, let him go to the sparse slight, and let him be happy for a while." But it's a shame that he can think of a way, or we have to think of a way to put water for him, so that he can take the stones smoothly. ”

Listening to this, he laughed, pulled Qin Yining and shook it in his arms, "Why is my sister Yi'er so smart." ”

Qin Yining couldn't help laughing, "Okay, you've already made a decision, and you're here to praise me again?" The mouth is so sweet, didn't you eat honey? ”

As soon as he saw Qin Yining's smiling appearance, his heart was about to soften.

From the time she first saw her, she was as delicate and lovely as the buds of the branches in early spring.

In the past six years, she has become his wife, and she has given birth to Brother Zhao and Brother Han for him, and she is also like a ripe peach, and her smile makes people's hearts flutter.

At this time, Xiao Xiao has a strong sense of crisis, she is still so young and beautiful, but he is almost in his prime. She is not an ordinary woman, such a smart and resolute is rare in the world, even if she is married, the people who love her still miss her. Isn't that Lu Heng one of them?

Xiao Xiao carefully touched her lips with her lips, traced her lips with the tip of her tongue, and said indistinctly: "Have I eaten honey?" Well? Would you like to try it? ”

There was silence in the room, except for a few whispers and a light gasp.

At this time, Lu Heng had already returned to the mansion, wrote the folds of Shangshu Li Qitian, and ordered someone to send them to the capital as soon as possible.

At the same time, a decree from the capital was being sent to the Yamen of Huichuan County day and night by an inner supervisor dressed in an iron-gray round-necked sunflower shirt in a bamboo tube, wrapped in several layers of oiled paper.

When Xiao Xiao and Qin Yining got the news, it was already the next day.

"Lord Wang, I have already found out. The Tatar Utkin Khan brought a large number of tributes to Beijing with Kedun to celebrate the birthday of the Queen Mother. Due to the rain problem, the road was detoured to Huichuan County. The Holy Lord has issued an edict instructing Zhongyibo to take full authority to handle the reception and welcome Utkin Khan and Kedun into Beijing. ”

Huzi replied with a frown, and stood aside with a heavy face.

Qin Yining pondered for a moment and said, "I look a little strange about this. ”

"Yes. Didn't Master Liao tell you that there was a change in the desert when the Lord Liao and the sting came back? Xiao Xiao's words hit the nail on the head.

Qin Yining nodded, "If the Tatars really have the intention to surrender, they won't come to congratulate their birthdays while sending troops and sending generals." But we can't speculate on our own judgment, if it's a coincidence. ”

Xiao Xiao smiled, "It's always right to be on guard. The Queen Mother's birthday is on August 26, and there are still two months to go, and Siqin is now arriving in Huichuan and wants to reserve time for accidents on the way. ”

"It's just that if Zhongyibo welcomes Utkin Khan into Beijing, it will inevitably delay our serious business."

They had just created an opportunity for Lu Heng to transport the treasure, but at this juncture, they were really born to rush?

Xiao Xiao naturally knew this truth, but he just smiled freely when he heard the words, "Don't worry, we are in a hurry about this matter, but Zhongyi Bo is more anxious than us, just like a gold brick in front of you, you can pick it up by pulling away the floating soil, but someone came at this time, and he didn't want to be discovered, you said he was anxious." ”

Hearing what Xiao Xiao said, Qin Yining also came back to his senses, and shook his head with a smile, "Naturally, I am anxious." He's not a stupid person, I don't think he will allow the arrival of Utkin Khan and his party to disrupt his plans, let's wait and see what happens, maybe he can figure out a way not to enter Beijing without us doing anything. ”

Of course, Xiao Xiao knew that what Qin Yining said was right. If Lu Heng was a stupid person, he would not have come to this position today and resisted the burden of the head of the Lu family. However, seeing that she is so confident in Lu Heng's ability, Xiao Xiao is a little sour in her heart.

It's just that if it's not happy, it's not happy, he's a big man, it's always hard to grasp such a trivial matter, this is what he took the initiative to discuss with Qin Yining, and it's not Qin Yining's ability to talk about Lu Heng when he has nothing to do.

Although Xiao Xiao didn't say it, Qin Yining guessed what he was thinking when he saw the slight change in Xiao Xiao's expression, and couldn't help but shake his head funny.

is such an adult, sometimes like a child competing for candy, a man really has a side that has not grown up, no matter how old he is.

Lu Mansion, Lu Heng settled the inner prison who sent the order, and walked to the study with a smile on his face.

Lu Wenru has been by his side for many years, and when he saw the back of Lu Heng walking forward with his hands down, he was already startled in his heart. Don't look at the uncle looking calm, in fact, he should be extremely irritable at this time. At this time, if you are not careful, you will anger him, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

Lu Wenru lowered his eyebrows and followed Lu Heng closely, and raised the oil-paper umbrella high to shield Lu Heng from the drizzle.

As soon as Lu Heng entered the door of the study, he couldn't hold back his expression anymore, and sat down irritably on the warm kang near the window.

"Wenru, tell me, why did the Holy Lord hand over this matter of welcoming the Tatar Khan to me alone, and not to Prince Zhongshun?"
