Chapter 44, the head of the Lu family
If it weren't for His Majesty holding and protecting, I don't know when I would have died quietly.
The mockery in his eyes was on fire, and his fists were clenched.
There was clear anger in her eyes, but there was no way, it was not Xiao Shunzi who looked down on Lu Jingzhi, but the emperor.
"Prime Minister Lu, take the order." Xiao Shunzi looked at Lu Jingzhi in front of him mockingly, he came too fast, and the soaked red clothes on Lu Jingzhi's body had not had time to change.
The hem of the clothes is still dripping with water, and the green silk is half wet, a little embarrassed.
Lu Jing stopped moving his hand and grabbed Guiyan, who couldn't help but want to rush up.
He smiled indifferently, lifted his robe, and knelt down with his knees bent.
His body is straight, even when he is kneeling, he has an awe-inspiring nobility that cannot be humiliated by others.
It was as if he was kneeling to a lowly eunuch, but drinking tea with a celebrity.
Xiao Shunzi looked at Lu Jingzhi's appearance, his eyes deepened, and he couldn't help but feel a little subtle jealousy and resentment in his heart.
He suddenly had the idea of sending the person in front of him to hell, to see him rolling in the mud helplessly and embarrassed.
He wanted to grind away the arrogance of the person in front of him, wanted to break his arrogance, wanted him to struggle in the quagmire but couldn't get out.
"This father-in-law, it's time for you to read your will." Guiyan knelt down and looked at Xiao Shunzi and looked at Lu Jingzhi without speaking, not knowing what he was thinking.
If he delays for one more second, Lu Jingzhi will value him for one more second, and the humiliation will become one more point.
Xiao Shunzi looked at Guiyan, with a hint of eunuch meanness in his voice, "When will the holy decree be read, and you don't need to point fingers." ”
Guiyan looked at him coldly and ignored him.
Xiao Shunzi glanced at her, and then snorted coldly and opened the holy decree.
"Prime Minister Lu Cheng has worked hard for the country, and now he is suffering from a serious illness, so he is allowed not to participate in government politics and recuperate with peace of mind......"
After the decree was read, Lu Jingzhi kowtowed and took it.
Xiao Shunzi looked at him coldly, "Prime Minister Lu, please recuperate with peace of mind, the emperor is still waiting for you to share his worries!" ”
There was no sadness or joy in Lu Jingzhi's eyes, he smiled faintly, "The minister will definitely return to the court as soon as possible." ”
Overestimate one's strength or oneself!
Can you go back to the court, you Lu Jingzhi said it, it doesn't count.
Xiao Shunzi sneered in his heart, and said expressionlessly, "I hope Prime Minister Lu Cheng still has this opportunity." ”
After speaking, he walked to the door, and took the two little eunuchs guarding the door out of the gate of the Lu Mansion.
As soon as he came down the steps, he turned his eyes to look at the plaque hanging in front of the Lu Mansion, and suddenly spat inside.
Guiyan watched this scene not far away, his finger bones were crackled, and he looked at his back fiercely.
Guiyan couldn't hold back and was about to catch up, but Lu Jing stopped behind him, but suddenly called, "Guiyan." ”
She turned around, Lu Jingzhi had a soft smile in his eyes, he took a step forward, and suddenly reached out and slowly hugged her into his arms.
Guiyan was stunned for a moment, with a little surprise in his eyes, and then distressed.
Look at what her family Prime Minister Lu Cheng has been wronged into.
She stretched out her arm around his waist, and her voice was sonorous and powerful, "Lu Jingzhi, the world bullied you and insulted you, and now they are trampling you, one day, they will all come back!" ”
"They will pull you down from the altar, and one day, they will beg you to go back!"
Lu Jingzhi paused, and after a while, he slowly let go of Guiyan, he stood in front of him, and looked down at her beautiful face, like an early spring apricot blossom, elegant and charming, and he didn't know it.
It's just that on such a beautiful face, there are a pair of sharp eyes, these eyes are so dark and so deep.
Now these eyes are full of distress and a kind of hatred.
He hated those who did not treat him well, and hated those who deceived him and insulted him.
He smiled lightly, his smile a little free, "I don't care how these people treat me." ”
"Even though it paid the price, the goal was achieved, didn't it?" There was a bit of majesty between his eyebrows.
Guiyan nodded, his brows furrowed slightly.
"Tell me first, what did Jing Si do?" Guiyan asked, she had been suspicious for a long time, Lu Jingzhi said that she wanted to cure the disease, but Jing Si, who was the most durable under him, had disappeared for so long, there must be something.
"I haven't told you all this time, he went to find medicine, the top of the snowy mountain, winter snow grass." Lu Jingzhi looked into the distance, and a black finch landed on the tree in front of the door, combing his feathers.
Guiyan nodded, muttered for a long time, and then looked at Lu Jingzhi, his gaze fixed, "I need someone to be with me, do you have a way to find it?"
"Originally, I was sure, but the two poisons were mixed together to restrain each other, and I was afraid that after unraveling the original poison on your body," Guiyan frowned, his tone was serious, "Scattered dust smoke will attack ......"
If Lu Jingzhi has any accident because of this incident, Guiyan will not be able to cry back no matter how much he cries.
Lu Jingzhi's eyes turned to her, with a hint of doubt, "Who do you want?"
"Devil's City Lian Ze!" Guiyan said seriously, "You should also agree with his ability, otherwise you wouldn't have let him use the Soul Grass for me at that time." ”
After Guiyan finished speaking, he thought that Lu Jingzhi would agree quickly, but when he looked up, he saw that his eyes were deep and his face was a little condensed.
She hesitated for a moment, "If it's inconvenient, I'll think of another way." ”
At present, the most important thing is to stabilize Lu Jingzhi's body protection qi, if this qi is dispersed, I am afraid that even the Great Luo Immortal will not be able to save him.
Lu Jingzhi shook his head slowly, "It's not that it can't be done, it's just that it's a little troublesome." ”
"Lian Ze saved you because he owed me a favor, but now that the favor has been repaid, it will not be so easy to let him make a move."
Guiyan smiled, with a kind of confidence between his eyebrows, "Let me ask you, where did Lian Ze learn?"
Lu Jingzhi frowned, and then suddenly hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled, "Medical saint, no injury." ”
He looked at the woman in front of him, at the sly spark in her eyes, and suddenly had the idea that he was really lucky.
Having this person is one of the few good things he has encountered in his life.
"That's right," Gui Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, with a kind of joy, "He opened a medical hall in Devil's City, and there are ordinary people in it, which means that he is a doctor." ”
"Since he is a doctor, we go to see a doctor, and there is no reason why he should not diagnose and treat."
It's just that now the patient is too weak to run more.
Guiyan smiled slyly in her heart, and Lu Jingzhi looked at the corners of her eyebrows and eyes, with a little doting in her eyes.
Lian Ze, who was far away in the Devil's City, suddenly sneezed a few times, he held the lamp, touched his forehead, and said, "I'm not sick either." ”
……
Nancheng Lu family.
The moonlight was heavy, hitting the tea trees in the courtyard, and the emerald green leaves reflected the cold moonlight.
The head of the Lu family, the current prince Lu Lengshi, is reading the official documents at the desk.
Fragrant rosewood is golden on the outside, but in this study is an application made of this fragrant wood.
From the pen to the desk, the wood in this room is afraid that the people of a city will chew it for three days.
A century-old family is really profound, whether it is power or money, it is not something that ordinary people can hope for.
He picked up the bamboo tube on the table today and took out the note inside.
Today's official business is busy, and he has not had time to see the news from the palace in the afternoon.
When he finished reading it, he frowned, and there were several deep wrinkles on his forehead.
Turning on the glass lamp and burning the note on the lamp, Lu Lengshi walked to the window, looked at the moon in the sky, and sighed slightly.
He was in the prime of life, and the expression on his face was cold and serious, but now his eyes were a little worried.
I thought it was just a trivial matter, but I didn't expect it to be a big thing.
The prime minister has been recuperating at home for half a year, and he can't go to court early, which is really a big deal in the Yue country.
Although Lu Jingzhi is the head of the Qing school, in the final analysis, he is also a member of their Lu family.
At the beginning, the Lu family couldn't stand him and his mother, and if they could take this opportunity to help him return to the court, the gap between them would be a little less.
Lu Lengshi's eyes were deep, thinking of the child who got up from the sewage many years ago, and suddenly said to the void, "Prepare the carriage, I want to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
The shadow behind him appeared out of thin air, dressed in black, and retreated with his hands folded.
The moonlight was cold, and a carriage drove slowly down the avenue, in the direction of Wuyi Lane.
The bluestone is still a little dark in color, and occasionally there are some water stains. The rain during the day has not completely dried up until now.
By this time, it was close to the sub-hour, and the sky was extremely dark.
There was no curfew in Vietnam, but it was too late, and there was no one on the road except this carriage.
The sound of bangzi came from a distance, making the night even more silent and deep.
Lu Lengshi sat in the car, his body straight, his hands on his knees, his eyes heavy, and he didn't know what he was calculating.
Suddenly, a breeze suddenly blew outside, and the curtains were gently lifted in a corner.
Lu Lengshi's eyes swept out of the window, and he suddenly said, "Wait!" Stop it! ”
The wheel spun a few times, then stopped as he commanded.
The shadow who was driving the car did not come to help him lift the curtain, nor did he make a sound.
Lu Lengshi sat quietly in the car, his hands on his knees clenched into fists.
Those who come are not good, and those who are good do not come.
A sneer came from outside the car, with a chill of contempt.
"What do you want?" Lu Lengshi spoke, his voice calm.
His brows furrowed slightly, but there was a calmness between his eyebrows.
The people who came didn't dare to do anything to him, the head of the Lu family, and Emperor Yue didn't dare to move, let alone some Xiaoxiao who hid his head and showed his tail.
A letter was handed into the car by a hand, and through the gap, Lu Lengshi saw that part of the black clothes on his body were shimmering in the moonlight.
"Master Taifu, you are a smart person, what you can do and what you can't do, you should be clear in your heart." The man in black specially lowered his voice, and his voice was hoarse.
Lu Hanshi's heart was cold, thinking of the news from the palace, he had already guessed who the person was.
He stretched out his hand to take the letterhead, and there was no joy or anger on his face, "Tell your master, as he wishes." ”
