Chapter 19: Deal with it calmly

As soon as Empress Lu saw it, she didn't have time to rest for a moment before she cared about what her brother had just said.

Lu Shizhi met Lu Hou's eyes with a 'swish', his mouth just opened, he was about to say something, but he could see his sister's eager and complaining eyes, there was a heart-stopping sharpness in his majestic and angry eyes, and he was so frightened that he swallowed back into his stomach when the words came to his mouth, he lowered his head and didn't dare to say a word, and he was embarrassed to scratch his sideburns with bared teeth and embarrassment. Although Lu Shizhi is the second brother of Lu Hou, he has a straightforward personality and does not lose a little honesty, judging things by his own feelings, thinking that it is wrong, he doesn't need to think about it again, he opens his mouth to criticize the wrong place, thinks it is right, and does not change his words as if he admits death. Since the death of Zhou Luhou Lu Ze, Lu Shizhi has become the biggest support in Lu Hou's family, Lu Shizhi has also relied on his sister's identity to do some street fighter things, every time it reaches Lu Hou's ears, Lu Hou always scolds his brother for being ignorant, Lu Shizhi even said that he will never make the same kind of mistake in the future, Lu Hou both complains and loves his brother, and he doesn't say anything unpleasant. Lu Shizhi has always been obedient to his sister, when he was in Peixian, his sister became the queen, it seems that he has always had a spiritual surrender to his sister, and Lu Hou is like Lu Shizhi's mother disciplining him.

When Empress Lu saw that her brother was like this again, she didn't say anything but didn't say anything, she lowered her head with guilt for doing something wrong, and she didn't have the courage of a man to take responsibility. Empress Lu hated such people the most, so she was angry, and repeated loudly, "Say, what's going on?" ”

Jianhou was like thunder above his head, and quickly knelt down beside Lu Hou with a 'poof', grabbed Lu Hou's hand, and explained the matter one by one.

"Lu Ling is our distant cousin, recently entered Beijing to do jewelry business, as soon as he settled down, he fell in love with a beautiful woman, and he had to marry her home, but the woman was already a married woman. Then where was Lu Ling's little nephew willing to look at her, he snatched her home, and the woman was so embarrassed that she hanged herself for a while. After hearing this, the woman's husband sued Chang'an Ling, and he had to say something, Lu Ling reported my name, and Chang'an Ling temporarily imprisoned the woman's husband in Chang'an Prison, and still begged for an explanation like crazy. The woman's in-laws also made trouble in Chang'an, and the mother-in-law couldn't be ignored and died in front of the county yamen, causing everyone to be in an uproar, and ......that's how it happened" Lu Shizhi said more and more quietly, and when he looked up, he saw Lu Hou's hot eyes staring at him, full of blame and complaints.

Lu Shizhi simply stopped talking and quietly knelt on the ground.

Empress Lu looked at her brother with a look of disgust and helplessness, sighed and bent down to help him up.

Seeing that his sister was just looking at him annoyedly, Lu Shizhi didn't know whether Empress Lu would help or not, and asked, "Sister, do you see ...... this?"

"How long have you been hiding this?" Lu Hou leaned forward and stared at Lu Shizhi, with some blame and fortitude in her tone.

Lu Shizhi glanced at Lu Hou with his eyes, and whispered, "That's it...... Seven or eight days. Originally, I was going to talk to you in the next few days, but the palace was too busy to take care of it, so I took advantage of the canonization of Princess Long'an today and came in. ”

"You still know that it was someone else who canonized, how did you deal with that matter?"

"I told the woman's husband that as long as they didn't make trouble, I would give them a hundred gold." Lu Shizhi's eyes lit up, straightened his waist and met Lu Hou's eyes, and said to Lu Hou with a happy face, Lu Shizhi thought that he had done well enough and would be rewarded by Lu Hou.

"The woman's husband is still in prison?" Empress Lu was displeased again.

Lu Shizhi nodded hurriedly, and said excitedly, "Well, if he is released, he will make trouble, don't dare to let him out, he is a fool, he doesn't want to give him 100 gold, you say he ......" Lu Shizhi counted the woman's husband.

Before he finished speaking, Lu Hou got up and scolded after speaking, "You are a fool, your wife was robbed and tried to see if you can still say such things?" If you dare to ask for 100 gold and not a sister-in-law, you don't recognize me as a sister. ”

Lu Shizhi was frightened by Lu Hou's sudden anger and hugged his head, and suddenly that naΓ―ve attitude really made people laugh. Seeing that Empress Lu was angry, he didn't dare to talk casually anymore, and muttered in a low voice on the ground, "It depends on which wife it is, if the tigress is robbed, it's too late for me to thank them." ”

"What did you say?" When Empress Lu saw the broken thoughts in his mouth, she knew that it was not a good word.

Lu Shizhi stuck out his tongue, opened his eyes, waved his hand and said, "No, I didn't say anything." ”

Empress Lu glanced at him again, sat on the couch without speaking, sighed deeply, wrapped her arms around her hands, closed her eyes and leaned on the pillow. Seeing that Empress Lu was sitting quietly on the couch without speaking, Lu Shizhi knew that Empress Lu was trying to deal with this matter for him again. Every time he encounters a problem and comes to Lu Hou, Lu Hou will always scold Lu Shizhi, and sit on the couch angrily thinking about how to solve the problem.

After a while, Empress Lu opened her eyes suddenly, straightened up and saw that her brother was still kneeling on the ground, and hurriedly asked Lu Shizhi to stand up, and immediately pointed at him as if he was ordering, "Release the person to me immediately, and take Lu Ling to the person's house to apologize, and then carry ten valuable things from Lu Ling's house to their family, and then say that their family is permanently exempted from forced labor, and then say that the queen said that it was the queen's words." ”

Lu Shiyi was stunned when he heard this, stared at Lu Hou, stepped forward and hurriedly said, "Sister, are you faint?" We are a royal family, and we are also big people at the pinnacle of glory, how can we apologize to them and give them ten treasures of the Lu Ling family? What's wrong with my sister, I wouldn't have dealt with this kind of thing before. Lu Shizhi listened to Empress Lu's idea, and was dumbfounded and puzzled.

"Brother." Empress Lu stood up angrily, complaining eagerly, complaining that her brother had no foresight, it seemed that her brother's honest thoughts were hopeless, she shook her head and sighed, "My brother doesn't want to think about where our Lu family is now, the emperor was thinking about grabbing the pigtails of the Lu family, grasping my mistakes so that he could have a righteous and bright change, and then he would have a reason to replace the prince, he thought that we made a mistake, but did you just do what he wanted?" Just thinking that my sister's throne is not guaranteed, and the prince's position as the prince is not guaranteed? Brother, don't you know that the emperor doesn't like you and Lu Tai Lu Lu in the first place, and he doesn't like the prince, so my sister and I will also suffer, if it weren't for my sister's best to stop it, I'm afraid that your niece will also follow over Yaoshan into the desert this time. ”

Empress Lu knew that her brother's understanding was mediocre, so she explained it clearly, and she was a little excited, and she couldn't wait to say those details. Lu Shizhi could hear his sister's complaints, and his fiery tone made Lu Shizhi step by step back, Lu Shizhi was speechless, and could only spit out "this ......" one by one

"You still do this, that, hurry up and release the person to me, do what the palace wants, act carefully, don't make any big moves, don't let the emperor know." Empress Lu looked at his embarrassment and knew that he couldn't say anything, so she simply interrupted him.

Lu Shizhi nodded, and said a soft 'oh' quite unwillingly.

Empress Lu exhaled heavily, still shaking her head and sighing at her brother's ignorance. Helplessly, he looked at his brother and said, "This matter was provoked by Lu Ling alone, but it smeared everyone in the Lu family, he has to apologize to others, if he doesn't go, go back to my hometown for me, and wait for the emperor to order him to be arrested." When you go back, just tell him, the more serious the better, how can you not feel uncomfortable when someone dies a woman and dies a mother, and an apology is the most basic. ”

Lu Shizhi said vigorously, "Yes, yes." ”

Lu Hou didn't laugh when he woke up, he blamed his brother with a strained face, and heard the word 'sigh' jumping out one by one, and shook his head helplessly, "Brother, the palace is no better than others, this is the cusp of the storm, there is a danger of being submerged at any time, and this is a game venue, where you take a wrong step and lose the game." Open guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to defend, I must fight all the time, I hope that my brother will lead the people of the Lu family, don't do anything to let the emperor seize the handle, don't let people secretly slander the emperor, the eldest brother is no longer there, I hope that the second brother, you and I will work together to carry forward the Lu family. ”

Lu Shizhi nodded as if he understood whether he understood or not, and asked himself in his heart: What does it mean to carry forward, isn't it enough to carry forward now? My sister is a queen, and I'm also a marquis, what else? So his mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but shake his head.

Dai Qing looked at them like a war of words, you took me and threw them, and he couldn't interject when he stood aside, he could only follow them with his eyes and observe their subtle changes. Empress Lu never smiled on her gloomy face, as if every time she came, Empress Lu would not be happy, and she was helping her brother solve difficult things. Dai Qing has always felt sorry for Empress Lu, and he has seen more of Chengchenghou, and gradually hated him for coming to Changxin Palace, and slowly, Dai Qing didn't treat Jianhou very well, anyway, Chengcheng Hou came more, and Dai Qing was also very familiar, and he also smiled and said that Dai Qing didn't have to be polite to himself, Dai Qing was not polite. Lu Hou felt that it was inappropriate at first, but slowly, his brother came here and gently told Dai Qing not to be polite with a smile on his face. Empress Lu felt that there was something wrong with this, so he called his brother privately and asked him if he liked Dai Qingcai like this, his brother's face was flushed but he smiled like a girl without speaking, Empress Lu scolded him not to do anything to the people around him, and Cheng Hou immediately stiffened his face and agreed intermittently. From time to time, there are hints of Dai Qing in the words, Dai Qing is extremely clever and ice and snow girl, as soon as Lu Hou opened her mouth, she knew what she was thinking, but took the initiative to promise Lu Hou according to Lu Hou's pace. Empress Lu knew that Dai Qing was not as brainless as his brother, he was very smart, so he patted Dai Qing on the shoulder and smiled. Over time, Empress Lu also silently promised Dai Qing's attitude towards her brother, anyway, no matter what her brother thought, Dai Qing would never waver.

said that he was tired, Dai Qing went to the inner room to make good tea, brought a cup and handed it to Lu Hou to drink, "Niang Niang drink tea." ”

He gave Jiancheng Hou a cup again, and suddenly Jiancheng Houxi squinted, took the tea and drank it all with a smile, and gave the tea set to Dai Qing, and praised, "The young girl is so good." ”

Empress Lu sipped her tea, and when she heard that her brother's mind was wrong again, she coughed hurriedly, "Sister-in-law...... How are you lately? Busy from Dai Qing to Jiancheng Hou's wife, reminding his brother that there is still a wife at home, so that Lu Shizhi was embarrassed, and smiled embarrassedly, "Okay, it's chubby." ”

Dai Qing desperately held back a smile, took the tea tray and walked quickly to the inner room. Lu Hou was also laughed by her brother, and when she saw her sister, she smiled easily and without hostility, and Lu Shizhi also grabbed the back of her head and laughed.

He asked Jin'er, "Sister, that princess of Long'an was also arranged by you, right?" ”

"Otherwise, why don't you tell Ah Yuan to go?" Empress Lu's smiling face was frozen again at this time.

Seeing that Empress Lu's face was still a little tired, pale and did not turn around, and remembered that Dai Qing said that Empress Lu had too many things in his heart, and Lu Shizhi complained that he couldn't help his sister, so he pursed his mouth and embarrassed his face.

Suddenly, Lu Shizhi patted his chest with a bright voice and said, "Sister, if you feel sad or uncomfortable, you must tell your brother, my brother will help you, my brother doesn't want you to work so hard." Lu Shizhi said this very sincerely, with a sincere face for Lu Hou, quite a bit of a brother's shelf.

When Empress Lu heard this, her heart immediately became hot, and the warmth invaded, and she looked at her brother under the steps in a blur and softly. It turns out that my brother is so good, he knows that he cares about himself, and he can send warm words when he feels the coldest, which is the most sincere and simple feeling. The sentence 'Brother doesn't want you to work so hard' made Empress Lu's originally frozen heart gradually melt, and the warmth of family affection made her feel the warmth she hadn't felt for a long time in the cold court. So he smiled warmly and nodded at Lu Shizhi, "Second brother will always understand me." ”

Lu Shizhi's face froze, and he seemed to laugh instead of laughing, feeling that he was not worthy of the word 'understand me', and he was making trouble for his sister.
