Chapter 226: Chasing the Murderer
"I'm just for your good, I married the Queen Mother, you are the rightful emperor, effortlessly, bloodlessly." Duan Shu sighed, what seemed to others to be a once-in-a-lifetime good thing had become a disaster that Lu Wei couldn't avoid.
The honey of A, the arsenic of B.
"Son, she's gone, so don't think about her anymore. You have to move forward after all, and she is too ambitious to be suitable for you. The former dynasty's military queen was autocratic and autocratic, and almost caused a catastrophe and ruined the foundation, have you forgotten? How can a manly man have no wife? You are a child like this, how will you be an emperor in the future? Duan Shu persuaded.
Lu Wei was still smiling, her smile was sad, and her heart was aching because she felt sorry for Zhang Yuqing, "It's a pity that she really treats you as a mother." ”
Duan Shuqiang smiled: "I'm also very good to her." ”
She can swear to God that she used to treat Zhang Yuqing as her own daughter. But since the death of Emperor Anping, the little emperor was cowardly and incompetent, and the Great Xia Dynasty was in turmoil, and the ambitions she had once buried in her heart re-emerged little by little, and soon overshadowed this mother-daughter relationship.
This country originally belonged to her father, so her son should sit down, which can be regarded as an explanation to the ancestors and ancestors.
Besides, if Lu Wei can be the emperor, won't she Zhang Yuqing get any benefits? Isn't her Zhang Yuqing's son the crown prince?
She didn't feel sorry for Zhang Yuqing, no one, but Zhang Yuqing herself was awkward and couldn't think about it, Duan Shu thought hardly.
Lu Wei only stayed at home for less than a while, and then fled and left the Command Mansion.
Duan Shu was annoyed and wanted to chase after her, but was stopped by Fang Mo's persuasion.
"If the adult is in a bad mood, you can let him rest for two days! You are his biological mother, you don't care about him, who else cares about him? Fang Mo said stiffly. He is an ordinary person, how can he understand what these big people are thinking?
He just didn't understand, how could such a good adult and lady fall to this point because of these people? What a happy family!
Duan Shu had to look at Lu Wei's distant back, and he was angry.
In the big tent of the barracks, Lu Dewen was tied up, sitting on the ground, embarrassed, and several of his concubines were also tied with their backhands, kneeling on the ground, with a rag gagged, and cold sweat soaked their sideburns and forehead.
Lu Wei opened the curtain and came in, and his eyes swept over these people one by one.
"You wicked! What kind of sin did our ancestors of the Lu family create, raising such an unfilial and unfilial thing as you! Lu Dewen scolded, panting, "Let us go!" ”
Lu Wei turned a deaf ear and turned his head to look at Meng Zeliang, "Did you ask something?" ”
Meng Zeliang said embarrassedly: "Old man Lu has been scolding ......"
This is Lu Wei's father, can he still be punished?
Lu Wei took off the rag that Lu Shen stuffed in his mouth, picked up Lu Shen's hair, and forced him to look up at himself.
"Who killed my wife?" Lu Wei asked.
"Big, big brother......" Lu Shen exclaimed in horror, "I don't know, I really don't know anything!" ”
There was an iron pot burning in the camp tent, and Lu Wei picked up a red-hot iron rod that was burning inside, and stabbed it directly into Lu Shen's shoulder with an expressionless face.
Lu Shen's screams were not like human voices, and the smell of burnt skin and flesh permeated the big tent.
Lu Dewen's eyes widened in horror, he opened his mouth to look, and forgot to say anything swearing.
The other concubines were shaking like chaff, gagged and couldn't say anything, and some of the timid ones peed their pants on the spot.
Lu Wei's subordinates exerted force, and with an expressionless face, he directly stabbed Lu Shen's collarbone.
Lu Shen fainted directly from the pain, fell to the ground, and the iron rod was still stuck in him.
"Son!" Lu Dewen was distressed and frightened, crying, and struggled to move his butt in the direction of Lu Shen.
"You don't know?" Lu Wei looked at Lu Yu.
Lu Yu's teeth chattered, and he couldn't speak.
Lu Wei picked up another red-hot iron bar.
"I, I, I, know, know......" Lu Yu exclaimed tremblingly.
Lu Wei didn't put down the iron bar, and his eyes were cold.
"The family is new, a new guest has arrived, give us a shot, come up with an idea to kill Zhang Yuqing, no, no one is blocking the big, the eldest brother has ascended the throne." Lu Yu said tremblingly, "I didn't do it, I, I just heard about it, I didn't expect them to really kill people!" ”
The youngest Lu Yue couldn't stand the pressure anymore, and cried: "Don't kill me, don't kill me!" He said that if he calculates the heavens, Zhang Yuqing will not die, you will not be able to be the emperor, and this troubled world will not be able to end! Father may have promised that after you ascend the throne, he will let you make us vassal kings! ”
Lu Wei took a deep breath and asked Lu Yu, "Where is the doorman?" ”
"Ran early!" Lu Yu cried, kowtowing desperately on the ground, "Big brother, I'm sorry, we were wrong, we were wrong!" Spare us! We're doing it for your good, too! ”
Lu Wei raised the long knife in his hand, and the hatred in his eyes was surging.
Lu Dewen hugged several of his concubines, his face was pale and trembling.
Fang Mo hurriedly hugged him from behind and shouted, "My lord, I can't! ”
No matter how hateful these people on the ground are, they are also Lu Wei's biological father and younger brothers, if Lu Wei really kills them, he will be scolded by future generations for tens of thousands of years!
The adjutants also hurried over to stop Lu Wei, they couldn't really let Lu Wei cut off his father and younger brothers.
"Them, they ......" Lu Wei's teeth rattled, anger burned his reason, he just wanted these people to pay for their blood debts.
Zhang Yuqing said that she doesn't like to listen to apologies, just be punished for any crime. He thought so, what did he do with a fake apology? It's disgusting, but it's just a trick to get forgiveness.
Fang Mo shouted, "My lord, if Madame was still here, I wouldn't have watched you kill so many people!" ”
Especially these people are still Lu Wei's closest relatives.
At the mention of Madame, Lu Wei regained a trace of reason and was stunned.
Dozens of people rushed up, and finally snatched the long knife from Lu Wei's hand.
If it weren't for Lu Wei's exhaustion these days, these people might not be able to take Lu Wei's knife.
Fang Mo waved his hand to the soldiers guarding Lu Dewen and the others, and asked these soldiers to escort Lu Dewen and the others back to the prison.
Lu Wei sat on the ground and covered his face.
Fang Mo felt uncomfortable, and sat with him, afraid that he wouldn't be able to think about it, so he said: "My lord, the doorman they said is so strange, it sounds like a ghost, who is sacred?" ”
Lu Wei didn't say anything, whether it was a human or a ghost or an immortal, as long as he found it, he would be killed.
Two days later, Fang Mo came with a spy to report that he had found Fang Qin.
Since Zhang Yuqing's accident, Fang Qin has disappeared, he knows that such a big thing has happened, although he is not the real murderer behind the scenes, but it also contributed to Zhang Yuqing's death, Lu Wei lost his lover, like a crazy lion, he will never let him go.
Duan Shu must know where Fang Qin is hiding, but it is impossible to tell Lu Wei that Fang Qin is her only remaining relative.
However, Fang Qin could hide, and the soldiers carefully trained by Lu Wei were not vegetarians, and after looking for almost two months, he finally found the person.
At the beginning of September, the land of Youzhou was already very cold, and the autumn rain was pouring down for several days.
In Youzhou, in a village next to the border to the north, Fang Qin wore a green cotton robe, an umbrella, a fishing rod on his back, and a basket on his arm.
There were a few wild vegetables in the basket, and a fish that was still moving.
Under the eaves, several elderly women gathered together, each doing needlework in their hands, and greeted Fang Qin after seeing him: "Gongzi Qin, go grocery shopping?" ”
Fang Qin smiled kindly, "Hello aunt!" ”
"My niece I told you last time is very good! I'll take you to her house to meet her! ”
"My niece is fine! See my niece! ”
Fang Qin smiled embarrassedly, ran to his yard quickly, closed the door, and isolated a group of enthusiastic ladies outside.
There are few people in the village, Fang Qin is so delicate, with a pleasing personality and a young talent who is literate and hyphenated, he simply stands out from the crowd, and he bought a house with a lot of money as soon as he came, and then after hearing that he has plans to live here for a long time, Fang Qin has become the Tang monk meat in the eyes of all the aunts, and they all want to pull it to their own girls.
Fang Qin shook his head with a helpless smile, closed the oil-paper umbrella, shook off the water on the umbrella, and stood the umbrella on the wall.
The water under the handle of the umbrella merged into a small stream and flowed down the stone slabs laid under the eaves into the courtyard.
Fang Qin bent down and put down the bamboo basket hanging on his arm, and was about to take out the dishes, when his movements suddenly stopped for a moment, and then slowly straightened up and looked up at the room.
Lu Wei stood there with his hands behind his back and looked at him coldly.
Fang Qin sighed, "Hiding here, you still found out." ”
The voices of the ladies outside chatting and laughing disappeared without a trace, and the closed courtyard door was kicked open from the outside, and Fang Mo rushed in with dozens of people carrying knives.
Looking at so many people, Fang Qin was happy, and spread his hands, "My martial arts are ordinary, I can't compare to you, I can't even beat Fang Mo, as for bringing so many people to arrest me?" ”
Fang Mo looked at Fang Qin, who still had the heart to joke, and said angrily: "Fang Qin, you have lost your conscience!" ”
Fang Qin put away his smiling face and stood there expressionlessly.
"My lord and lady are sorry for you, you want to hurt them like this!" Fang Mo asked sharply.
Fang Qin said coldly: "It's boring to talk about these things now. It's just that I lost the bet, overestimating the weight of the dragon chair in the heart of our glorious and majestic Lord Lu. If you want to fight, you will fight, if you want to kill, you will kill, I have nothing to say! ”
"Madame was killed by you, and you don't feel guilty at all!" Fang Mo's eyes were red.
Fang Qin's face was ugly, he didn't say a word, and said for a while: "Whether you believe it or not, I didn't want her to die." ”
"In good conscience, I admire her, although she is a woman, she is a person with a common heart." Fang Qin said to Lu Wei, "But I also know that it is absolutely impossible for her to agree to the position of concubine, Duan Shu and I just want to coax you first, raw rice is cooked and cooked, even if you catch the ducks on the shelves, we have to let you sit on this dragon chair first." We burned the first few pages of your letter to her, leaving only the last page, which was an explanation from you asking her to raise money and ask the widow to buy the throne. We just didn't expect her to be so fierce that she would go directly to the capital, I thought this matter was going to be exposed, who knows all kinds of mistakes, to today's situation. ”
Fang Mo shouted: "Don't keep saying that it's all for the sake of adults!" If you want to be good for him, why don't you ask him what he wants? ”
Fang Qin sneered, what did he ask? Lu Wei, a big man who originally had Ling Yunzhi, now only wants his wife and children to be hot, "Fang Mo, you are a brainless, you are Lu Wei's little servant, but your heart is in Zhang Yuqing, who are you loyal?" ”
A long time ago, Fang Qin asked Fang Mo this question, at that time Fang Mo didn't understand what Fang Qin meant by this, but now he understood.
"I'm loyal to both! I'm not like you! You say you're loyal to your adults, but you're actually thinking only about yourself! Fang Mo roared, "You can't forget your identity as the prince of the previous dynasty, and the county lord never forgets her identity as the princess of the previous dynasty, it is you who are unwilling to force the adult to become the emperor to realize your ambitions!" ”
Doesn't Fang Qin want to be an emperor? must think about it, but he knows it in his heart, knowing that he has no power and no power, he is not as good as Zhang Yuqing in terms of governing the people's livelihood, and he is not as good as Lu Wei in terms of governing the army and fighting, even if he becomes the emperor, he is just a puppet emperor hiding under Lu Wei's wings, no one obeys him, and he can't sit still.
It is better to push Lu Wei to be the emperor from the beginning, the left and right are the descendants of their family, and the world is still theirs, and it is not an insult to the expectations of the ancestors for him.
Lu Wei took out the long knife on his waist and said coldly, "Draw the knife." ”
Fang Qin looked at Lu Wei's enemy-like gaze now, and sneered, "Lu Wei, I am your uncle, we grew up together since childhood, so many years of love, is it not as good as a Zhang Yuqing who has been with you for a few years?" It is said that women are like clothes, brothers are like siblings, why are clothes more important than siblings? ”
Lu Wei didn't speak again, and he had already slashed over with a knife.
He himself was extremely talented in martial arts, and he was willing to study hard, so he couldn't find a few people in the entire Great Xia who could make a few moves under him.
Fang Qin hurriedly pulled out his sword from the handle of the umbrella to block, and the thin sword was directly knocked out by the long knife.
The long knife continued to attack, and it directly hit Fang Qin's neck, pressing out a bloodshot.
"If you want to kill, you will kill!" Fang Qin stood with his hands behind his back, "I don't regret pushing you to be the emperor, do it again, I will still be like this." ”
Fang Mo looked nervously and sadly, after all, he was a brother for many years, and he couldn't bear it.
The sound of the dripping rain knocked on the tiles, and Lu Wei raised his long knife slightly, and under the gaze of everyone, he slashed down.
Fang Qin closed his eyes.
However, when he opened his eyes again, he found that his head was still on his neck, and the bluestone slab between him and Lu Wei was completely broken, and a two-foot-deep ravine was drawn on the ground.
"The brotherhood between you and me has been severed since then." Lu Wei's face was cold, and his eyes were like ice, "I'll see you later, just don't know!" ”
