Chapter 67: Entering the Palace

Wei Zhongxian's face also changed suddenly, and he hurriedly got up and saluted. Then I saw Guo Zhen holding the holy decree and walking into Wei Zhongxian's mansion.

Guo Zhen read out the holy decree on the spot. The emperor appointed Lu Xiao to thoroughly investigate Zhao Jingzhong's case. And with a sentence, you can act cheaply.

Not only Luo Yangxing, but even Wei Zhongxian looked at Lu Xiao with a shocked expression. His Majesty has been recuperating since he fell overboard. The major affairs in the court are rarely paid attention to. Why did you pay attention to this case at this time?

And when did the emperor notice Lu Xiao, not only trusted him. It was even given the right to act cheaply. You know, this sentence is a right that countless ministers dream of. Lu Xiao, a small pacification envoy, was able to get this kind of right.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lu Xiao got up and took the order. Then he turned to face Luo Yangxing.

"Lord Luo, I'm afraid you won't be able to take me now. Lord Luo is a Shangguan, I will give you face and don't let people take you. Let's ask Lord Luo to take a trip to Zhao Prison. ”

At this time, Luo Feng on the ground finally realized that his words seemed to have brought unbearable consequences. Crying, I didn't say it, I didn't say it. I just drank too much and couldn't remember exactly.

But it was already too late. He was useless, what Lu Xiao wanted was actually just a specious excuse. Now that several clues are combined, it can already be determined that Luo Yangxing has a major suspicion. So Lu Xiao's purpose has been achieved.

"Lu Xiao, do you know that you are now guilty of the following crimes. Even if you take me today, you will definitely not end well. ”

Luo Yangxing is telling the truth. Lu Xiao's operation can be called an absolute taboo in officialdom. In most cases, officials don't think the same way as civilians.

Our normal thinking is that if you are wrong, you will be punished. But for officials, especially those of antiquity. Mistakes are not the key to punishment. Broken rules are.

The most important rule of officialdom is to take sides. This point is common in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad. And the other is guilty of the following. As a subordinate official, try not to mess with your superior. Even if the other party makes a mistake, even if you have sufficient evidence. If it doesn't work, it won't work, and this kind of problem in officialdom doesn't look right or wrong. Whoever does it will be ostracized by all.

However, what Luo Yangxing didn't know was that these rules did not work for Lu Xiao. Because from the beginning, Lu Xiao had no intention of integrating into this so-called rule circle. What he wants is to establish a whole new set of rules.

Luo Yangxing's right hand pressed the handle of his knife, and he had the urge to kill Lu Xiaoge on the spot desperately. But in the end, he gave up. When he was young, he was also a master. But after so many years of pampering, that bit of effort has long been forgotten.

Not to mention Lu Xiao, even a few brocade guards around Lu Xiao, he can't beat him.

took off his knife and handed it to Lu Xiao. He whispered in Lu Xiao's ear.

"Colleague, leave me a back."

Lu Xiao's eyelids jumped slightly, and he looked at Luo Yangxing in surprise. And the other party was already weak, and followed the other brocade guards.

Whether Luo Yangxing collaborated with the enemy and committed treason, in fact, Lu Xiao did not know. History is also not very clear. But Lu Xiao remembered one thing very clearly. That is, after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, Luo's cultivation was quickly reused by Shunzhi. It even made it to the Governor of Tianjin.

Surrender is such a thing, naturally, the sooner the better. However, Luo Yangxing surrendered only after the Qing army occupied the capital. And in some records, it is said that he was greeting the Ming prince Zhu Cihong at that time. After discovering that it was the Qing army, he immediately changed to greet the Qing army.

Lu Xiao didn't know how such an outrageous move could be reused later. I treat Daqing as a spare tire, and Daqing treats me like my first love?

But in this world, he has long felt it vaguely. Many ministers in the court have more or less connections with Guanwai.

This is also the reason why Lu Xiao does not go up. It's rotten up for a long time, and there's no value in saving it.

And Luo Yangxing's act of giving up resistance undoubtedly shows his attitude. Lu Xiao should have caught it right.

"Lu Wenzhao, you immediately take people and block all of Luo Yangxing's residences. Make sure no one slips through. Shen Lian, you take a team of people to see for yourself how Luo cultivates his nature. He can't have an accident until I come back. Remember, you can't give him a mouthful of food or water. He cannot be interrogated by anyone but me. If someone uses force, shoot and kill! ”

"Commanded by humility."

After speaking, Lu Xiao turned around and walked out of Wei Zhongxian's mansion directly. didn't even say hello to Wei Zhongxian.

And it wasn't until everyone left that Wei Zhongxian sighed slowly. The whole person seemed to age ten years in an instant. Because it was in the confrontation just now. He found himself completely ungrasped.

From beginning to end, he was just a tool for Lu Xiao to suppress Luo Yang's nature. The only effect is to make Luo Yangxing dare not act rashly. Wait for the Decree to come.

He had long realized that Lu Xiao did not rely on himself like other disciples. But at that time, he just thought that the other party was a somewhat arrogant young man. But now it seems that Lu Xiao has never seemed to be his own person.

As for who it was, it was not known before, but today it is known. He is the emperor's man.

But Wei Zhongxian couldn't understand that there was no way to rely on the emperor. Why did Lu Xiao, a young talent with a great future, also lean towards the dying emperor? He didn't believe that Lu Xiao hadn't received the courtiers' wooing. But obviously, he rejected everyone and chose to be a lonely minister.

Wei Zhongxian had a strange feeling. This Ming Dynasty suddenly became unfamiliar. Originally, he was 9,000 years old with the power of the world, and he could determine the life and death of the ministers of the court and the central government in one word. It is possible to know anything that is happening in the city. But now, he found that all of a sudden, he didn't know anything.

He didn't know that Lu Xiao was hiding so deeply. I didn't know that he was the emperor's person. I don't know what it means for the emperor to suddenly take Luo Yang's sex at this time. Let Lu Xiao take the position, but he is a little too young, and his qualifications are completely unattainable. If this is the will. Those ministers must not quarrel.

This court, which was originally controlled by him, made him a little unrecognizable overnight.

On the other side, Lu Xiao personally led people to a hidden courtyard in Luo Yangxing. Hundreds of Jinyi guards forcibly broke through the courtyard. Lu Xiao even took action in person after a long absence, and took Ding Xiu and others to kill. Directly strangle a group of stubborn guards.

"My lord, a large number of files have been found. Some were burned, but most were salvageable. ”

Lu Xiao immediately walked in after hearing this, and after roughly flipping through a few files, a serious expression appeared on his face.

"Prepare the horse, I want to enter the palace."
