Chapter 66: Trouble

Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the concubine!

Lu Zhiyuan and Xu Zi'an got together again, if Bai Susu didn't know that they would have a bad relationship in the future, she would have thought that Xu Zi'an had taken a fancy to their family Lord Lu, otherwise she wouldn't even be an official if she didn't do anything, and Baba followed.

Bai Susu felt that this was all premeditated, these three princes had just returned to the capital after blocking a knife for the emperor, and Xu Zi'an followed closely. If it was a coincidence, she wouldn't believe it.

It's just that these two obviously didn't have any warning before, how did they hook up, Bai Susu didn't understand and couldn't figure it out.

In fact, Bai Susu really misunderstood this time, Xu Zi'an came to the capital to defect to Lu Zhiyuan purely because he felt that the capital was suitable for him to show his strength, and even if he stayed up to a seven-grade sesame official in the small place of Anyang, he would be able to reach the sky. So after thinking about it again, he resolutely resigned, and took refuge with his good friend with a small burden.

"Second master, I heard that the emperor was assassinated in the palace a while ago, and the assassin caught it?" Before Bai Susu's words fell, he noticed the strength in his hand.

Lu Zhiyuan has also been worried about this matter these days, the emperor traveled, and assassins were mixed in the palace, if it wasn't for the appearance of the three princes at that time, the consequences would be unimaginable. Moreover, the two assassins finally ran away, and the emperor was furious and ordered that he must be caught.

The emperor's palace is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and it must have been hidden in the mountains at that moment, but it was not caught at that time, and it would be so easy to catch it after so long.

A few days ago, the emperor summoned him, and there was a faint dissatisfaction with the crown prince in his voice, which is understandable when you think about it, the prince is in charge of the Gyeonggi Guard, but he let the assassins get in, and it is difficult for the emperor not to suspect it.

"Nothing, investigating." Lu Zhiyuan said a word, obviously unwilling to talk more.

Seeing this, Bai Susu also diverted the topic and said something else, the two of them talked with each other, and when the time was almost up, Lu Zhiyuan got up and went out.

Another half a month has passed, and during this time, Lu Zhiyuan has been going out early and returning late, and he is very busy. He is the secretary of Dali Temple, and the case finally fell on top of his head, and the emperor made a death order to solve the case within a month, otherwise the official hat would not be guaranteed.

For the sake of this case, Lu Zhiyuan didn't even have time to eat recently, and the notice outside had been posted for a long time, but at this moment, it seemed to be a stone into the sea and disappeared without a trace.

I don't know when rumors began to spread inside and outside the court, saying that the emperor's assassination was instigated by the crown prince. When Chunlan told her about the news, Bai Susu noticed some unusual smells, she was just an inner housewoman, and the news could reach her ears, so wouldn't it be even more serious outside.

The prince, Bai Susu knows a little, there is no contact between them, but in the past, Lord Lu would tell her that a person who has no merit and no fault is a little greedy for pleasure, if the only thing that makes people criticize is that she is a good woman, and the others are okay. He has little ambition for the throne, the prince prefers a rich and luxurious life, according to the prince's meaning, he wishes that the emperor would live a long time, so that he can always be the prince in peace and stability, and he doesn't have to worry about state affairs all day long.

You say that such a person will murder the emperor, Bai Susu doesn't believe it, but she doesn't believe it, it doesn't mean that the emperor doesn't believe it. The emperor is now past the prime of life, gradually aging, as he gets older, he also attaches more importance to the power in his hands, and at this time there is assassination time, it is difficult not to think that the prince can't wait to seize power.

The more Bai Susu thought about it, the more worried she felt, she suddenly found that the seeds of suspicion had been planted between the prince and the emperor at this moment, this time made the emperor suspect the prince, and with the news that the third prince was critically ill several times later, every time it was a reminder to the emperor, these two sons, one saved him and almost died, and the other wanted to kill him.

With such an idea once or twice, the emperor can still tell himself that he thinks too much, but he can't stand the fact that the third prince is critically ill once a month, and the emperor is naturally dissatisfied with the prince after a long time, so he will later acquiesce that the prince's rights are hollowed out.

Lu Zhiyuan came back in the moonlight, with a faint tiredness on his face, Bai Susu was very distressed when he saw it, and asked the kitchen to make a pigeon soup for him to replenish his body for dinner.

After dinner, Lu Zhiyuan was dealing with some things in the next room, Bai Susu brought refreshments over, and when he walked to the table, he saw a portrait on the table.

"Who is this?" Bai Susu put down the refreshment, took the teacup and handed it to Lu Zhiyuan.

"The assassin who escaped from the palace has been captured for so long and there has been no news." Lu Zhiyuan took the teacup and took a sip, this was the biggest case since he took office, seeing that the deadline given by the emperor was approaching day by day, he was anxious but had nothing to do.

Bai Susu glanced at the portrait, and couldn't help but feel a little familiar, there was a cross-shaped scar on the right side of the person's face, as if she had seen it before. She reminisced, only to find that her memory was blank for the man.

"You're not afraid, look so closely." Lu Zhiyuan saw her solemn expression, so he quipped.

"I want to remember what this person looks like, and I can let you know if I happen to see it." Bai Susu said seriously.

"Come on, you woman, if you really want to meet such a killer, do you think you still have the life to inform me?" Lu Zhiyuan glanced at her, although he didn't take her words seriously, but seeing her like this, his heart was also warm, presumably Aunt Bai also wanted to contribute to herself.

Lu Zhiyuan looked up after reading the official document and saw that the woman sitting in the room had a look of desire to speak, so he put down his pen and said, "Come here." ”

Bai Susu walked up to him and listened to him ask, "What do you want to tell me?" ”

"Second master, I've heard rumors about assassins and the crown prince recently," she couldn't help but mention the ......matter.

"Where did you hear from you, you can say this kind of nonsense?" His voice sank suddenly, and his eyebrows were raised, which was already angry.

Bai Susu was startled, knowing that he was angry, he hurriedly lowered his head and said, "The second master is angry, and the concubine knows her mistake." ”

Lu Zhiyuan saw the panic on her face, and also realized that her tone just now was a little serious, but this matter is different from others, the emperor is very sensitive to the assassination, and some people deliberately create public opinion pressure, the emperor is increasingly dissatisfied with the prince, and even has opinions on him, the Dali Siqing, who is close to the prince, the situation in the DPRK and China is turbulent, and it is easy to provoke anger if one is not careful.

"Don't mention this matter again." After he finished speaking, he saw that her face was still a little nervous, so he explained, "You don't walk around outside, and you don't know a lot of things." The matter of heaven is not to be mentioned casually. ”

Bai Susu also knew in her heart that this matter was very involved, the prince was behind the Lu family, once something happened to the prince, the first one was that the Lu family was unlucky, this matter had already happened once in her previous life, she nodded and said, "I understand, I won't say it again in the future." ”

Lu Zhiyuan nodded and saw that she seemed to be frightened like this, and reached out to take her hand and pulled him to his lap and sat down, "You don't have to be so afraid, with me, it will be fine." ”

Bai Susu looked up at the face in front of her, and her eyebrows, which were still green at first sight, had gradually matured unconsciously, and she faintly had the appearance of Lord Lu in her memory.

Leaning his head on his neck, his voice was a little low, "Second master, you must promise me that nothing will happen." ”

She was worried, she was afraid, she didn't want to repeat the pain at that time, if she lived again, she could still watch the situation develop to the point where she was at the beginning, then how could she be worthy of the gift God gave her.

Lu Zhiyuan also noticed her sudden heavy tone, but she was frightened, a few faint smiles came out of her lips, reached out and patted her back, and said softly, "Don't worry, I'll be fine." ”

......

The crown prince has been very troubled recently, he has been wronged for no reason, and he is a little suspicious of the emperor's father, which is really sad.

He came back from outside with a sigh of relief, and the little eunuch with him asked cautiously, "The prince goes to the East Garden or the West Garden?" ”

There are many women in the prince's mansion, some have a name, some have no name, the prince is too lazy to remember, so he divides the mansion into two sides, one east and one west, the east garden includes the princess, all the women who are serious about the jade butterfly live in it, and the west is a few concubines and other women who have no name live in it.

"Go to Dongyuan!" The prince pondered, the limelight has been too tight recently, he always goes to Xiyuan not to be caught, the emperor has been very dissatisfied with him recently, if he is impeached again, it is really impossible to eat and walk around.

Although the prince is mediocre, it is not useless to be a prince for many years, he thinks about the current situation, what he can rely on is the big tree of his uncle's family, and the Lu family is his cousin Lu Zhiyuan who can help him the most at present.

Their cousins still had some friendship when they were young, but as they grew older, they became estranged a little bit, Lu Zhiyuan is currently Dali Siqing, and he can speak very well in the court, and the ministers in his hands are like a wall grass all day long, and they run away when the wind blows, they are all outsiders, and they are not reliable when they want to, Lu Zhiyuan is different, that is his own cousin, she can be relied on, so it is still necessary to get close to the relationship as soon as possible.

He thought of the good girl Fluttershy who had just entered the mansion not long ago, and there were countless women around him, and he didn't know how many of them were more beautiful than her, and he didn't know how many of them were beautiful, and at that time, this porridge-like woman was very appetizing, but he couldn't stand the many women in the backyard, and when the freshness passed, his heart was taken away by others.

I haven't seen her for days, and the prince thinks that Fluttershy is Mrs. Lu Zhiyuan's godsister, and it doesn't matter if this godsister is a bit authentic, but after all, it is only fitting that Fluttershy should be the link of communication.

"Go to Liangdi." The voice fell, and the man had already strode away.
