Chapter 42: The Past and the Past

In fact, it was just to tell her that the male corpse by the Qujiang River last time was actually Lu Yin, the second son of the Lu Sacrifice Restaurant, who accidentally fell into the river and drowned due to excessive drinking.

This kind of case, not to mention that it often happens in this imperial capital with a population of one million, even in a small place like Lishui County, there are many cases of drowning in the summer.

In an accident, the body had already been claimed by the Lu family, and the case had already been closed, even if Mo Shuoyue had doubts in her heart, she didn't want to pursue it.

It's not that she's afraid of trouble, but that it involves officials in the DPRK and China, and she is worried that if she doesn't handle it well, she will cause trouble for Li Yunmin.

After the last time she entered the palace, she really knew what it meant to have an undercurrent and be treacherous. Lin Changjun was demoted out of Beijing, and the prince's party hated Li Yunmin to the core, competing against each other, just waiting to find out his mistakes.

Therefore, on the cusp of this storm, if it is not necessary, during this time, it is better for her to be less involved in the family affairs of court officials.

It's a pity that even if he says this, Jiang Zhen won't understand it.

"Let me tell you, as soon as Lu Yin's body was received the day before yesterday, he hastily put it into the coffin, I heard that it was because Lu Yin's mother couldn't see the corpse and was scared several times!"

"Hmm."

"Why do you think they are so timid, aren't they just a corpse, still intact, without missing arms or legs. Besides, the stitches I stitched were also carefully handled, and they looked much better than when I saw them. ”

Mo Shuoyue's movements paused for a moment, and she didn't know what to say to the person in front of her.

When ordinary people see corpses, they are still a little unsightly, a little uncomfortable, a little uncomfortable, it's normal, right?

Moreover, a mother who sees her child's tragic death is inevitably overly sad and not necessarily frightened.

Jiang Zhen continued to take care of himself: "I just said, the corpse looked very familiar that day, and it was really someone I had seen." You don't know that this Lu Yin was called a talent before his death, and he was suave. It's a famous poet and wine wonder in Kyoto.,Good talent.,Good personality.,But it's the dream lover of thousands of girls in Beijing! It's a pity, when you die...... It's kind of ...... Unsightly. ”

"Dream lover?" Mo Shuoyue couldn't help but feel a little interested, her eyes finally moved away from the book, and asked with a smile: "When I was in Lishui County, I heard that King Gongjing was the object of admiration of thousands of women in Kyoto. ”

"You're asking the right person about this! Kyoto really has an 'ideal husband quartet'. Jiang Zhen patted his chest with a smug expression, "Zong Zhi is a chic and beautiful young man, looking at the blue sky with white eyes, as bright as a jade tree in front of the wind." Looking at the marriageable young talents in the entire imperial capital, if you want to say that this imperial capital woman is the most fascinated, it is the graceful and beautiful, like the king of Gongjing, but our prince's status is noble, and the lord of Lexian County threatened not to marry the king of Gongjing, so everyone dare not talk more, and can only imagine in their hearts. ”

The county lord of Lexian, Li Lexian, the daughter of the Marquis of Pingzhang, and the niece of the emperor's cousin. This person who is good at talking in Jingzhong City, Mo Shuoyue has heard of it.

Fifteen years ago, He Tianguo invaded the northern border of our dynasty, Pingzhang Hou led his troops to the expedition, stalemate for three years, although he won the battle, but also fell ill, before entering Beijing, he died of illness on the way.

When the first queen mother was alive, she pitied her for being young and sluggish, and took her into the palace to raise her personally, and she was very fond of her, but she developed a brutal and willful character.

When he was twelve years old, he saw King Gongjing's celestial appearance for the first time, fell in love at first sight, and was out of control, crying and begging the queen mother for marriage, but unfortunately the emperor refused the marriage on the grounds that he was not in time.

Three years ago, the Empress Dowager passed away, and although the county lord Lexian was cunning and arrogant, his feelings for the Empress Dowager were real.

It is said that at that time, she was so grief-stricken that she did not eat or drink for nearly half a month, and once sought death and wanted to go with the Queen Mother. Later, under the persuasion of his family, he decided to stay at home and lead the practice to pray for the blessing of the Queen Mother.

Just when everyone thought that she would be silent, who knew that two years later, that is, a year ago, she had just met the court, and she was not ashamed to ask the queen to marry her and Li Yunmin, but Li Yunmin refused on the spot, and since then, Li Lexian has become the number one joke in Kyoto.

"If you want to talk about this second marriageable beautiful man, it is naturally the son of the family who is not allowed to come away! Talent, character, family background, everything is outstanding, but unfortunately people have long been married, at the beginning of this year, I just married Sima Peier, the youngest daughter of the Sima family, who was a childhood sweetheart and a good match, and I don't know how many women's hearts have been broken. ”

"Speaking of this Sima family, the third is Sima Pei'er's eldest brother, Sima Chang's son, that is, Sima Yi, the general of the town army who just inherited the title three years ago. In his early years, because of the war, coupled with three years of mourning, he delayed a lifelong event, and he was the oldest of the four, but it did not affect the girls' admiration for him at all. Although the age is close to standing, stationed in the frontier all the year round, but God's face is different, precipitated the breath of years and experience, that face not only does not show the vicissitudes of wind and frost, but oozes an indescribable mature beauty, I have to say, mature and heroic, but also elegant and gentle, I look at it quite like. ”

Looking at Jiang Ji's appearance, Mo Shuoyue was happy to dismantle the stage, "Then your heart is really big, while shouting Brother Qin Ji, he said that he admired the prince the most, and now he said that he likes Sima Yi." Then this last one, could it be Lu Yin, you also like it? ”

Jiang Zhen grinned, and didn't care, "You're really right, this fourth person is Lu Yin, just that kind of weak scholar, those little sisters of mine are quite infatuated, I really don't like it." ”

"Yes, it's rare to know your preferences clearly and clearly."

As if he couldn't feel the ridicule in Mo Shuoyue's words at all, Jiang Zhuan began a new round of talking:

"Speaking of this Lu Yin, I have to mention the Lu family, have you heard that the ancestor of the Lu family is actually the high priest of He Tianguo? Fifty years ago, the ancestor of the Lu family made a hexagram and calculated that there would be a catastrophe in Hetian Kingdom thirty-five years later, and whether the country survived or not depended on whether it could survive that catastrophe. He raised the matter in the court, but no one believed it, and he was ridiculed as unfounded. So in grief and indignation, he resolutely resigned from the position of high priest and moved his family to Beijing. After the fierce battle fifteen years ago, He Tianguo was in a slump, and it used to be a small country in Heqing Haiyan, but now as far as the eye can see, there is starvation all over the wilderness, and many of the displaced people over there have mixed in with us. ”
