Volume 5 The Courtyard of the Deep Mansion Chapter 11 Dali Temple
Ling Feng knelt alone on the mourning hall, staring at his father's tablet, motionless, not knowing what was going on in his heart. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info looked up at the sky, it was already past noon. He sighed heavily, his eyes suddenly reddening.
Suddenly there was a noise outside the courtyard, and it seemed that a large group of people had rushed over, which was extremely incongruous with the usual tranquility. Ling Feng was a little angry, and got up to see who dared to make noise here. As he walked to the door, he saw Governor Lu walk in the door first, followed by Su Zhuo and a large group of officials.
Ling Feng was slightly stunned, obviously he didn't expect them to come, let alone guess what these people were doing here. He saluted Lu Xiaoru and said, "I don't know that the prefect has arrived, and I missed the welcome, please forgive me!"
Lu Xiaoru knew that he was the head of the Ling family, so he didn't dare to slack off, and returned the salute. The two exchanged a few polite words, and Su Zhuo stepped forward and said to Ling Feng: "Master Ling, Lord Lu is going to be here on business today, please treat me well." ”
Ling Feng was suspicious in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "This is natural, Lord Lu, please hurry!"
Lu Xiaoru nodded, first went to the mourning hall to put on a pillar of incense, and then followed Ling Feng to the side hall. He also put on incense before entering the side hall, and the rest of the official guards guarded everywhere in the courtyard. Seeing that so many people were coming, Ling Feng hurriedly ordered his subordinates to serve tea, and he didn't dare to slack off.
Suddenly, two officials escorted Ling Shuang into the side hall. When Ling Feng saw it, he was secretly shocked in his heart, and somehow he didn't carry out the execution. The two brothers looked at each other, but neither spoke. Ling Shuang's spirit was depressed, but her expression was calm, and her eyes gradually regained some brilliance.
He glanced at Su Zhuo, but instead of being indignant, he nodded slightly. When Fang Cai was on the execution ground, he was only excited for a while, and he couldn't guess Su Zhuo's deep meaning, so he scolded him. However, Ling Shuang is also extremely smart, and along the way, he guessed Su Zhuo's painstaking efforts. Although he didn't know Su Zhuo's specific plan, he also knew that he was trying to save himself.
Su Zhuo didn't glance at Ling Shuang, he bowed down to Lu Xiaoru and said, "I have calculated that Qin Lei will definitely come here today." As long as we wait here for the rabbit, we will definitely be able to bring him to justice! Sit down, my lord, there is Ling Gongzi here, and I will go to the backyard to prepare something. ”
Lu Xiaoru sipped tea and said "um". Ling Feng on the side was even more confused, and he didn't know what it had to do with Qin Lei. But he didn't want to ask too much, so he had to sit down with Lu Xiao and talk to him.
As soon as Su Zhuo came out of the side hall, his face became heavy. He walked straight to the gazebo in the back garden and sat down, saying nothing. It's quiet, there's no noise in the front yard, and there's no crowding.
Suddenly, Yan Linglong's laughter came from the top of the pavilion. She turned over and sat opposite Su Zhuo, and said with a smile: "I was really scared on the execution ground just now, I didn't expect your plan to really succeed!"
Su Zhuo said: "I also secretly pinched a sweat. Although I know that Lu Xiaoru has a grudge against Qin Lei, I am not sure that he wants to get rid of Qin Lei like this. If he didn't believe me, or if he directly cut Ling Shuang and then troubled Qin Lei, then we would have lost all our efforts. ”
Yan Linglong also said with a straight face: "Yes." What are we going to do now? You've invited all the people you need to invite, and if today's play is ruined, you won't be able to eat and go away!"
Su Zhuo said in a deep voice: "I can only make a desperate bet." I still have an important piece of physical evidence that I haven't found, and I need to think again. You help me keep an eye on the outside, Qin Lei will come and tell me when he arrives. ”
Yan Linglong nodded, and walked away without saying anything. Su Zhuo sat in the pavilion, sighed, and whispered to himself, "Where is it?"
In the side hall, all the officials sat and chatted. The scorching summer afternoon makes people drowsy. Ling Feng specially asked his subordinates to prepare melons and fruits to entertain everyone from the heat. Outside the door, people came in one after another.
Su Qin, supported by the green calyx, slowly approached the side hall. She took off the willow hat, and everyone in the hall stood up unconsciously. Lu Xiaoru stepped forward and said, "Isn't this Miss Suqin! What kind of wind is blowing you! Please take a seat!"
Su Qin didn't want to deal with him, so he was slightly blessed, but the corner of his eye glanced at Ling Shuang in the corner of the house. Lu Xiaoru kept being courteous, invited Su Qin to sit down, and asked if he was thirsty or hot. The next person was also busy serving fragrant tea and ice melon.
As he was talking, another person walked in outside the door, holding a folding fan, and it was Lu Kang. He entered the house and saw so many people, and said with a smile: "It's so lively here!"
Lu Xiaoru looked back and saw that it was him, frowned, and said, "Why are you here?"
Lu Kang smiled: "I heard that there is a lively scene here, so let's take a look!"
Lu Xiaoru was furious, stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Look at the excitement! I'm handling a case, don't make trouble for me!"
Lu Kang still had a hippie smile on his face, and said in a low voice: "Father, I heard that you are going to get rid of Qin Lei, the thorn in your eye, here. How can you not let the children share this kind of happy event?" he said and sat down beside Su Qin, and said with a smile: "Isn't this Miss Su Qin? Hello! How about I go to listen to you play the piano in two days?"
Su Qin glanced at him, as if he had a deep meaning, but he didn't say much. Lu Xiaoru was also helpless against this only son, so he could only let him go.
After a short while, a few more people came in from outside the door. The first was Shen Donglai, followed by Mrs. Shen and Ling Yu Ling Xue. The four of them entered the house and saluted Lu Xiaoru. Lu Xiaoru was a little strange and said, "Why are you here?"
Shen Donglai was stunned for a moment and said, "Didn't the prefect send someone to call the villain?"
Lu Xiaoru was also stunned and said, "When will I ...... Forget it, let's take a look here when you come, you are also a member of the Ling family after all. ”
Shen Donglai and the others sat aside as they said. When Lu Xiao was like this, he had already thought that Su Zhuo must have called them on his own initiative. He didn't dig deeper, so he didn't say anything. Ling Feng, Shen Donglai, and Mrs. Shen glared at each other, and their hatred deepened.
Shen Donglai laughed even more, he learned that Lu Xiaoru was here to catch an accomplice, so he thought that Ling Feng must be killed, and his heart was naturally dark. Ling Feng didn't have the same idea at this time, and several people had their own thoughts, secretly proud.
The hall was already full of people, waiting patiently. However, after waiting for two or three hours, it was getting dark, and there was no movement. Everyone became more and more impatient, just waiting for the meaning of Governor Lu. Lu Xiao couldn't bear it at this time, and got up from time to time to take two more steps back and forth.
Lu Kang snorted and said, "Father, it seems that you have been tricked!"
Lu Xiaoru snorted heavily, and there was anger in his heart, and he said secretly: "Wait for another pillar of incense, if there is no movement, I have to cure Su Zhuo for the crime of teasing!"
Just thinking about it, an official errand rushed in from outside the door, and reported closely: "My lord, Qin Lei is here......
Lu Xiaoru was overjoyed and scolded: "Don't arrest it yet!"
The man hesitated a little, and hesitated. Lu Xiaoru was anxious and asked, "What else do you have to say?"
The official replied, "There are also ...... who came with him Dali Temple Qing ......"
