Chapter 288: Seeing the Light of Day Again
In fact, the speculation of the people in Beijing is really accurate, Lu Shangshu is indeed angry about Lu Hanjiang's marriage, but the reason for his anger is different from what everyone thinks.
"If I had known that you would marry the princess for him, it would be better for me to handle the marriage for him myself."
Lu Shangshu sat down again and said faintly: "Even if the Lu family's face is lost, things will not be worse than the current situation." ”
Old Man Meng laughed and said, "What, are you still willing to send your precious daughter to him as a concubine." ”
Lu Shangshu snorted coldly: "How can you not be reluctant, as long as he is willing, it doesn't hurt to go to the door, you don't have two granddaughters in your own family, why don't you speak?" ”
Old Man Meng laughed: "If that kid likes it, let alone being a concubine, he will be sent to the door as a maid, why don't you ask him?" ”
"Humph......"
After venting, Lu Shangshu's depression dissipated a lot, and he calmed down and asked, "I heard that you called him back?" Why, now that the form of Jingzhong is treacherous, it is better to let him stay on the rivers and lakes. ”
"You and I are happy, that kid's ability is better than you think, and if you don't let him retract his strength, I'm afraid that the lid that was finally pressed down will bounce up again."
Old Man Meng held the teacup and sighed rather weakly: "That kid doesn't know where he went, but he actually found the Rising Sun Dart Bureau and the Lu family in the Eastern Capital. ”
"The Lu family in the eastern capital?" Lu Shangshu's face changed, and he condensed: "He actually found out the ....... of the Oriental Family."
Although Lu Hanjiang had not yet returned to Beijing, the letter had already arrived in the capital one step ahead of schedule, and Meng Yuan could only urge him to come back quickly after knowing this.
"Back then, you erased almost everything related to the Dongfang family from the rivers and lakes, and the relevant files have already been sealed, how did he find out?" Lu Shangshu said suspiciously.
"It doesn't matter how you find it."
Old Man Meng shook his head: "If he continues to investigate, the only remaining disciples of the Dongfang family will definitely not be able to hide, and I am afraid that he will not be able to escape the word 'death' at that time." ”
"It is not a pity for a rebel who commits rebellion to die." Lu Shangshu said indifferently.
"I also know that it's not a pity for them to die, but at least now they can't die," Old Man Meng pinched his eyebrows: "I let those people survive at the beginning, but I didn't let them die at this time." ”
Lu Shangshu pondered for a long time and said: "Is there anyone behind the Dongfang family, I haven't been able to find out the depth for so many years, Lord Luo, I also probed the wind, but unfortunately I found nothing." ”
"Luo Yuanjing, that old thing, still doesn't let go when he's old."
Old Man Meng squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, and said, "That's it, let's keep an eye on him first, sooner or later there will be a time when he will come to the door." ”
Lu Shangshu also nodded: "The crown princess is too strong and has full wings, she is smart and close to the demon, if she does the things of Lu Hou Wuzhou, I am afraid that no one can control it, since the old master has chosen this path, sooner or later he will join us, otherwise he will abandon his Confucian reputation." ”
......
......
A few days later, Lu Hanjiang and his entourage finally returned to the capital, and the most important thing was naturally to visit Old Man Meng, so that the old man could see that his niece was still alive.
Later, Lu Hanjiang also raised the matter of the Dongfang family in private, but Meng Yuan was vague, just telling him that the Dongfang family was indeed involved in the murder of the first prince.
But the strange thing is that there is no grudge between the two sides on the surface, on the one hand, the prince of the dynasty, and on the other hand, the family of rivers and lakes, not to mention the intersection on weekdays, and even the names of each other may not have been heard, so they have not been able to find out the purpose of their rebellion.
In the end, Old Man Meng also reminded Lu Hanjiang not to make a move on the Dongfang family for the time being, after all, he still wanted to put a long line to catch big fish and see who was behind them.
This made Lu Hanjiang, who finally asked something out of Lu Kai's mouth, disappointed for a while.
Lu Kai didn't resist the interrogation after all, the light skills he practiced were the nine heavens of the Dongfang family, but he didn't know what was special about his background and martial arts, it seemed that these people concealed their identities completely, even from their own families.
Lu Hanjiang estimated that the crazy old servant should know something, but unfortunately the other party was dead, so he had no choice but to temporarily escort Lu Kai to prison.
As soon as he returned to Beijing, the handover of some things was necessary, but Lu Hanjiang was lazy, and after the matter was handled, he probably became the shopkeeper, handed over everything to Jiang Xian Bian Guang to do, and sat in the yamen for a while before returning home.
But what I didn't expect was that it was worth early, and I met an unexpected guest at home.
As soon as Lu Hanjiang got off at the door, he met the Seventh Prince who walked out of his house, which was really a rare guest.
"I've seen the Seventh Highness."
Lu Hanjiang's etiquette was very good, but when the Seventh Prince saw him, it was like seeing a soul envoy who asked for his life, and he didn't know where to put his hand, and after a few words of greeting with trepidation, he quickly got into the carriage and galloped away.
It seems that after the incident of inviting Yuelou, this young prince finally recognized what kind of weight Jinyiwei has in the court, which made Lu Hanjiang sigh for a while.
When he returned to the mansion, he went to find Princess Yongle, wanting to ask the Seventh Prince's intention.
"Brother Huang, he seems to have come to you to intercede, but he didn't dare to see you, so he looked for me first."
Yongle roughly mentioned the matter of the Seven Princes to Lu Hanjiang: "The imperial brother said that he had a confidante who seemed to have accidentally been involved in a eucalyptus and was arrested by Jinyiwei and put in prison. ”
“......”
Lu Hanjiang frowned and tried to think about it for a long time, before he suddenly realized that it was the red clothes of Invite Yuelou.
These days, he is so busy with things on the rivers and lakes that he almost forgot that he still released a lot of people in the edict prison, such as Snow Rakshasa and Bu's red clothes or something.
Lu Hanjiang thought for a moment, then looked at Yongle and asked, "The princess has a good relationship with the Seventh Highness?" ”
Yongle did not shy away from it, and said directly: "The Seventh Emperor Brother is only a few years older than me, and I grew up in the palace with him when I was a child, so the relationship is naturally closer than others. ”
Lu Hanjiang nodded clearly, and then slowly smiled: "Since the princess has a request, I will naturally comply, and it is not a big deal for those people to commit a crime, so it doesn't matter if you let it go." ”
Yongle glanced at Lu Hanjiang suspiciously, and her intuition told her that there must be something wrong here, but she didn't say it, it was enough to help the Seventh Prince pass the word, and she didn't plan to interfere with Jinyiwei's work.
Lu Hanjiang was extremely efficient, and the next day he not only released the red clothes, but also sent her sisters who had not joined the Sect Division out to her, not only that, but even the Snow Rakshasa was released with him, which was unbelievable.
Outside the gate of the Imperial Prison, Hongyi, who saw the light of day again, looked at several sisters hugging each other and crying with joy, only to feel as if they were in a different world.
Bian Guang looked at them from behind, and after a while, the red-clothed man stepped forward and gave a gentle blessing: "Thank you, adult, for taking care of you." ”
"The Sword Comes"
Bian Guang waved his hand indifferently: "Don't thank me, it was His Royal Highness who asked for your favor, but your Excellency has said it first, you can't continue to stay in the capital, where to go in the future, you have to make plans in advance." ”
"The little woman understands."
Hongyi also knew that even if they left the Imperial Prison, the capital would not be able to stay any longer, and the Invite Yuelou would be gone for a long time, but fortunately, their sisters were finally reunited, as for the future......
The red clothes glanced at Gu Zijing, who was released together, and seemed to have made a decision.
After sending off the women of the Bu clan and the Snow Rakshasa, Bian Guang came to the Lu Mansion to meet Lu Hanjiang.
"It's all done?"
Today, Lu Hanjiang was not building blocks, but took a big brush to scribble on the map, looking at one after another areas soaked in ink, he seemed to be in a good mood.
"Back to my lord's words, everyone has already let them go," Bian Guang hesitated for a moment and asked: "It's just that I'm worried about my humble duties, this is far away from the north and the earth, will that woman really obey the order and send a message to us?" ”
"How not?"
Lu Hanjiang looked at the dark map that had been altered, threw the brush aside with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "The desolation of the northern land is not something that everyone can bear, who would want to go to that ghost place after seeing the prosperity of the capital, besides, since she was willing to sell for freedom, what does it matter if she sells it again for the sake of power, betrayal of this kind of thing, as long as there is a first time, there will be many times in the future." ”
