The fast travel is too late

Chapter 240 She is a fish in the pond (18)

"Your Majesty Lu once won three yuan in a row, and he was unparalleled in the limelight. Now he is also an important court official who has won the trust of the emperor. With your ability, it is not difficult to deal with the fifth prince openly. Why do you do such a deceitful way and implicate innocent people for nothing? .”

Lu Zhensheng stepped forward and stopped Xin Wu, refusing to let her talk to Lu Ziyu and the others.

If he had known earlier, when Lu Ziyu was arguing with others outside, he should have come out immediately so that he would not have an excuse to pester Xin Wu.

How many times have things changed and stars moved?
Nothing in this world is eternal.

Lu Zhensheng still remembers that when he was young, he and Lu Ziyu went to school together in the clan. At that time, Lu Ziyu was really just like the rumors said. Come on, how could it be that he is now forcing innocent people to act according to his ideas openly and secretly!

I sighed in my heart that the world is unpredictable, if I didn't see it with my own eyes, who would have thought that Lu Ziyu would change so much?

He sideways pressed the chair that Xin Wu was sitting on, and turned the chair abruptly, so that Xin Wu's back was facing Lu Ziyu and the others.

"The disaster of the ancestral house was originally caused by Mr. Lu. Uncle Lu also suffered the unreasonable disaster because Mr. Lu offended someone who should not be offended. After this incident, Mr. Lu actually wanted to use Ah Wu's life to plot against the fifth prince." Wait, have you been an official in the court for many years, and you have even fed your own conscience to the dogs? If my brother knew that you would become what you are today, I don’t know if he would regret his life. for."

When you hate someone, it is usually where the pain of others is most obvious, so you go there.

That's what Lu Zhensheng did.

There is a big difference in age between him and Lu Ziyu, so they just enrolled in the ethnology school together at the beginning, and his brother is the one who really has a classmate with Lu Ziyu.

Before Lu Ziyu won the No. [-] Scholar, he used to study abroad with middle school students of his clan.

Lu Zhensheng's older brother Lu Zhenyu was also among them.

However, their luck was bad. They were obviously going on the official road, but they met bandits on the way. Leaving safely, Lu Zhenyu was beaten half to death by bandits, and when Lu Ziyu, who had escaped, found the soldiers stationed in the city and came back, he almost failed to save him.

Even if he is rescued, he will be permanently disabled, and it becomes impossible to become an official in the court.

Today, Lu Zhenyu stays in the clan school and is responsible for teaching the Meng children in the clan who are entering school.

If Lu Zhenyu is extremely regrettable in the eyes of the Lu family, then it is a taboo that cannot be mentioned on Lu Ziyu's side.

Of course, people in the capital don't know him, so they won't mention him. The ancestral house relies on letters, and no one will deliberately mention him.

After all, this was the first time he heard that person's name after he came to Kyoto.

Lu Ziyu's complexion was not good, and the words he said were not very pleasant, which can be described as tearing face.

"You can make her refuse to cooperate with me, but I will not guarantee her safety at that time, and don't mention Lu Zhenyu to me, he is a waste now, he dare not even walk in front of me, what can he do to me! "

Swearing out bad words sometimes hurts not only others, but yourself as well.

Xin Wu stared at Lu Ziyu for a while, she could feel other people's overly excited emotions.

Lu Ziyu, who spoke harshly, was not as fearless as he showed. Even when he mentioned Lu Zhenyu's name, his pupils shrank unconsciously, and his unexpressed emotions were even more sour, as if they were picked fresh from the mountain. The hawthorn has a peel that is not completely red yet, and feels sour and astringent when put into the mouth.

I don't know what happened between him and Lu Zhenyu that made him feel so sad when he mentioned the other party's name.

"Lu Zhensheng, get out of the way, this is my business, I can handle it myself."

Xin Wu got out from behind Lu Zhensheng. She actually didn't like this kind of plot where it's time for revenge. It seems that there is nothing else a person can do in life except revenge.

It's just that some people are obsessed with revenge because they have no choice.

But she couldn't tell whether she wanted revenge for Uncle Lu or because of the mission given by Yuhuan.

Whether it's the former or the latter doesn't really matter.

She is just a fish in a pond, and she was hurt by a fire at the city gate before. Although she escaped unharmed because of Uncle Lu's rescue, she is still a fish in a pond, and even her life is held in the hands of others. .

The Fifth Prince's people can find out her origin so clearly, so of course their old rival, the Third Prince can also.

Now that the fifth prince is covering her up, she doesn't have to worry about her and Lu Zishan's safety.

Xin Wu dared to say that if she rejected Lu Ziyu's proposal today, the third prince's subordinates would come to wipe out the grass and roots tomorrow. People in the royal family have never been easy to get along with. They would not think that the silent Xin Wu brothers and sisters who went to Beijing quietly no danger.

Still a fish in a pond, trapped in a prison.

Maybe Lu Ziyu wasn't as bad as Xin Wu thought, but it wasn't too bad. She had already prepared for the worst, and when her guesses became reality in the future, she wouldn't be too disappointed or afraid.

"I can go to knock on the Dengwen drum, but this is not without request. I want you to promise me that my brother will be taken out of this matter. His future should be a smooth career, and not be involved in the calculations between the princes." Relationship, fall into other people's calculations."

This request is not too much, nor is it something that can be accomplished.

Lu Ziyu thought about it for a while, discussed with the Fifth Prince and agreed.

Verbal promises are not safe. Xin Wu added an extra layer of protection for himself and Lu Zishan, "Then can you swear? I swear on Lu Zhenyu's name that if anything happens to my brother, he will end up with the same fate as my brother."

Lu Ziyu's expression was very strange, a little nostalgic and full of struggles, but finally complied.

After achieving their goal, they naturally would not stay in Xin Wu's small restaurant, they left soon, and only Xin Wu and Lu Zhensheng were left in the room.

The momentum that Xin Wu had been holding on to suddenly slackened, and he sat slumped on the chair. On his forehead, there were big drops of sweat that could not stop coming out, and the wrist protruding from the sleeve was also bruised and purple. Just now, what kind of method did she use to make herself appear less shy.

"They're gone."

Lu Zhensheng bent down, his eyes were level with Xin Wu, staring at her intently, but he didn't say anything.

Xin Wu looked at him at first, but after a few glances, her eyes couldn't help but drift to other places. There was something indescribably weird about the way they faced each other. She tried to say something to Lu Zhensheng to make him Trying to change the position, or getting her to stand up from the chair, all ended in failure.

It was as if he wanted to keep the eye-to-eye posture with Xin Wu, and he didn't want to change until the eternity.
