Chapter 112 Burial List

Chapter 112

After hearing his daughter's analysis, Lu Desheng's eyes lit up, "Daughter, do you think we can give the Xie family and the Zhao family a ride and bring the Zhao family or the Xie family closer to the fourth prince's network?"

Lu Songli looked at her father's eagerness to give it a try, and it was a little funny. Her father was sharpening his sword to fight against the pigs and sheep. In fact, she was a little tempted, but after thinking about it, she still shook her head and rejected her father's proposal.

"Dad, let's not move, especially you. We must believe in our emperor's ability to monitor all officials. We use the emperor as a knife, just in case he notices..." It is good to kill with a borrowed knife, but given the current situation, it is risky to take action. It's too big, and if you are discovered, you might get caught in it.

It is better to wait and see what happens and see if there is an opportunity for a last hit later.

"Then we don't have to do anything?"

"In the current Chang'an City, no movement is worse than silence." At this time, Chang'an City was like the center of a hurricane. Under the eyes of Emperor Kang Cheng, this was the time to be good. Those who were good may not be rewarded, but those who were not good would be rewarded. About to get beaten.

Lu Desheng thought about it and found that it was indeed the case. Then he opened the study door and ordered his servants to call Lu Zhiyuan and Lu Mingzhi over.

Lu Songli knew what her father wanted to do. At this time, it was really time to unify his will.

Not long after, the two brothers Lu Zhiyuan and Lu Mingzhi came to the study.

Lu Desheng mentioned the recent situation to them, and finally told them, "There have been strong winds and waves in Chang'an City recently. You all should keep your tail between your legs and be a good person, do you hear me?!"

Lu Songli thought quietly, as before, prepare for the worst and work hard for the best. They are currently preparing for the worst outcome of something happening to the prince. If something happens to the prince, someone must be responsible. His death in the Northern Territory is an unreasonable disaster for the Qin family. The Qin family will definitely bear the brunt, and the Lu family may also be implicated.

By that time, it was already a game between the upper echelons. As pawns, they could only do so much, they could only manipulate people's hearts and leverage their strength.

It's a pity that she noticed the conspiracy of the fourth prince and others too late. Otherwise, if she had messed up the matter before the prince went to work in the north, there would have been no such thing.

This idea only flashed in her mind for a moment, and then she was forgotten. Seeing that the crisis is not terrible, if there is a crisis, we will solve it.

What they have to do now is to prevent others from adding insult to injury. To deal with this move, it is natural to try to grasp the enemy's handle and lifeline as much as possible. If you grasp their handle and lifeline, will the opponent dare to add insult to injury to you?

They cannot move in Chang'an City, but there is a place outside Chang'an City that can be moved.

Lu Songli's eyes fell on the four words "Lishan Villa", "Zhao Bin, Zhao Bin, it's your time to perform. I'll give you a chance this time. I hope you can live up to your expectations this time."

In Lu Songli's view, Zhao Bin has always been just a knife. He used to be a good knife in the hands of the Zhao family, but now, he has become a sharp blade that stabs the Zhao family. Use it now, it's just right.

Only then did the three fathers and sons of the Lu family know that his daughter, sister, and second sister had arranged for someone to be with Zhao Bin.

Watching her arranging things, Lu Mingzhi moved his mouth and whispered, "Second sister, Zhao Bin was so miserable before, why haven't you let him go yet?"

Lu Zhiyuan: ...His sister is too scary. Don’t offend her if he offends anyone in the future! He swore secretly.

Snap! Lu Desheng gave his younger son a melon, "Can you speak? Your second sister is planning something far-sighted——"

Lu Songli smiled and said, "Mingzhi, are you still worried about him?"

Ah bah! Lu Mingzhi shook his head quickly under his old father's eager gaze. He wasn't worried about Zhao Bin, he just felt pity for him. Forget it, if he wasn't pitiful, it would be his second sister who was pitiful. Thinking about it this way, Zhao Bin might as well be like this.

Lu Songli continued, "Don't worry, after this incident, I will let him go free, and the grudge between me and him will be cleared."

Lu Desheng: Nonsense, you clearly abandoned him like a pair of worn shoes because you saw that he had no use value.

Lu Mingzhi: What should I do if I think he is even more pitiful? !

Lu Zhiyuan: Don’t offend my sister, don’t offend my sister.

A girl’s mouth is a liar.

Lu Desheng shook his head and walked out of the study with his hands behind his back. After leaving the study, he trotted back to the main courtyard with brisk steps, sharing his daughter's intelligence and foresight with his wife.

Lishan Villa

On this day, Zhao Bin woke up from a drunken dream. At this time, he was washed and washed by someone, his hair was tied up, and his clothes were luxurious and exquisite. Looking at his legs, he felt like he had returned to the time when he was high-spirited.

The maid Jin Chan came to him and said with a full smile, "Fourth Young Master, the sun is warm today. How about we go to the plum forest and have a look? The snow along the road has been swept away by the servants. It is very convenient to go there."

Zhao Bin looked directly at the person who came, "No need to go to so much trouble, just tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Jin Chan was at a loss.

"Are you from Lu Songli?"

Jin Chan was startled, "Fourth Young Master is joking."

Zhao Bin smiled self-deprecatingly, "I think that when I reach this stage, she is the only one who still cares about me so deliberately."

After saying this, he said again, "Just tell me, I will cooperate with you in whatever you need me to do."

Jin Chan gritted his teeth, stated his request, and then presented him with paper and pen.

When Zhao Bin heard this, he smiled with unknown meaning, then he picked up the smile readily, dipped it in ink, and started writing.

Seeing this, Jin Chan breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that what he said was true.

She was Liu Erxi's distant cousin, and her family lived in a farm near Mount Li. Before, her cousin found their family. He knew that she was a person with ideas and a tight mouth, so he asked her privately if she was willing to take care of a disabled person and be his accomplice.

He also said that if she didn't want to, he would just pretend that he had never mentioned it. If she wanted to, he would take her away and tell the public that she was going to work for a rich family. But whether this matter succeeded or not, it could not be told to the public or to her family.

She was the second child in the family, and she had an older sister. Seeing her bedridden mother, hard-working father, and several skinny brothers and sisters at home, she gritted her teeth and agreed.

Soon, the Zhao family's other courtyard at the foot of Mount Li recruited servants, and she was quickly selected because of her neat appearance. After a little preparation, she went to serve the fourth son Zhao Bin.

When her cousin sent her here, he only told her to serve with all her heart and not to think too much about anything else, and he didn't contact her at ordinary times. This was the first time someone from her cousin contacted her, and it might be the last time.

After she came to the Zhao family's villa, her family had good luck. A good doctor traveled to their village and happened to cure her mother's illness, and their family only spent a little money. Then, her father found a part-time job with a good salary and not tiring. Then the eldest sister said a good marriage...

She knew that all this happened because of the noble man behind her cousin, and she was grateful.

In fact, she didn't know the name of the noble man, but her cousin occasionally mentioned it once, and she remembered it deeply.

It took about a quarter of an hour for Zhao Bin to finish writing, and then put down the pen, "It's not unfair for me, Zhao Bin, to lose to her, and it's not unfair for the Xie and Zhao families to lose to her. She calculated people's hearts to the extreme." She deserved to win.

Zhao Bin had no burden at all for betraying the Zhao and Xie families. He is now a weakness of the Zhao family. If the Zhao family doesn't protect him well, don't blame others for taking advantage of him.

He had been in Lishan Villa for so long, and his good sister had sent him something at the beginning, but there was no news afterwards.

He could understand that she was busy, because she was about to get married.

But wasn't Lu Songli the same? It was ironic that his enemy specially arranged people to take care of him and asked about his well-being.

Jin Chan took the paper, bowed to him, and then walked out.

After she left, Zhao Bin picked up a book, leaned back, tilted his head, covered his face with the book, and then began to laugh softly, and tears came out as he laughed.

Yugan Palace

Cough cough - cough cough -

Emperor Kangcheng finally stopped coughing, and Wei Zili quickly handed him a hot towel, and after he wiped his mouth, he handed him a cup of ginseng tea.

Emperor Kangcheng drank two sips to suppress the itch in his throat. He leaned back on the soft pillow again and asked with empty eyes, "Are there any letters from the north?"

Wei Zili: "Not yet."

Emperor Kangcheng's face was gloomy, "Send another secret decree to the prince to return to Chang'an! Quickly!"

"Yes!" Wei Zili thought to himself, this is the third secret decree, right?

"Wait, go get me the list of people buried with the dead first." Emperor Kangcheng ordered.

"Yes!"

Wei Zili came back soon, "Your Majesty, this is the list of people buried with the dead, please take a look."

Wei Zili lowered his head very low.

"Has Lu Desheng made no unusual movements these days?"

"No, Lord Lu usually rarely goes out after returning from the palace. The Lu Mansion is also quiet, except for the sixth day when the Qin family went to propose marriage, Miss Lu went to the silver shop, and the eldest son of the Lu family was ordered around by Mrs. Lu and ran errands outside. The people coming and going are all normal."

Emperor Kang Cheng concentrated on thinking for a moment, raised the red pen, and crossed out Lu Desheng from the list of officials to be buried with him.

Forget it, Lu Desheng treated him with sincerity, let him go once, and the friendship between the monarch and his subjects was complete. Otherwise, he still had a gold medal of immunity from death in his hand, which he would use at most, and he would not die. In this case, it would be no different from taking off his pants to fart. It was meaningless for him to give him the gold medal of immunity from death.

When Wei Zili saw this scene, he admired it in his heart. Lord Lu was really amazing, and he actually made the emperor change his mind. You have to know that Lord Lu is the most useful minister in front of the emperor, and the emperor wants to take him to the underworld to continue using him even after his death.

He knew that Lord Lu was on the list of burial companions early on, and not only him, but he must also be on the list of burial companions. Although he was not on this list, Wei Zili felt that he should be secretly executed, right?

Now Lord Lu has escaped, which is really enviable.

"Wei Zili, I will set you free after I leave."

"Your Majesty, I want to accompany you all the time." Wei Zili said hurriedly.

Emperor Kang Cheng sighed and said, "Then you guard my tomb."

Emperor Kang Cheng said this to him, but he never dared to believe it. But today, the emperor crossed out Lord Lu's name from the list of burial companions. Maybe he can believe it?

This matter was later revealed to Lu Desheng by Wei Zili. If Lu Desheng had not sincerely reminded him before, or if the emperor had not crossed out his name, he would definitely not say it.

This news made Lu Desheng break out in a cold sweat.

Lu Songli had not expected this. First, as a person from the later generations, her funeral was very simple. She had never held a funeral before, so it was normal that she did not notice this. Secondly, the Dali Dynasty had been practicing simple burials for several generations, and she had not expected that Emperor Kangcheng would restore human burials. Was he not satisfied with being an emperor and wanted to take him to the underworld to enjoy himself?

Moreover, this was not a list of burial companions, but a list of life and death of the King of Hell.

Wait——

Lv Songli suddenly realized that this was a good thing. Since the emperor wanted to take someone away, did the fourth prince want to send someone away urgently?

They couldn't get on the ship, but there might be opportunities for cooperation, right?

Lv Songli always believed in the saying that there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.

"Your Majesty, there is a letter from the North!" Wei Zili hurried in.

"Give it to me!"

Emperor Kang Cheng opened one first, took a look, and threw it aside.

Then, he opened the last letter, and then, "Puff--"

Emperor Kang Cheng spit out a mouthful of blood, and the letter in his hand fell.

"Your Majesty!" Wei Zili was instantly frightened, "Quick, please call the imperial physician!"

After spitting out a mouthful of black blood, Emperor Kang Cheng felt a little relieved. He held the table, his tiger eyes were tearful, and he growled, "What is Qin Yue for?!"

Looking at the battle report, Emperor Kang Cheng's hands were shaking all the time. Prince, they actually let the prince die in the hands of the Qiang and Hu people!

He received two war reports. The first one was about Qin Yue leading a large army to besiege the court of the Qianghu king, and the second one was the news that the prince had passed away.

Wei Zili came over to help Emperor Kang Cheng lie back on the couch. After he lay down, he went to pick up the two war reports. When he accidentally glanced at the contents of the letter, he trembled all over and wished he could stab his eyes! The prince died in the northern border? ! Something happened, something big happened!

Wei Zili's head was buzzing, and then he felt the gaze behind him like a thorn in his back. He crawled on the ground. It was over. Was this something he could know? But he still couldn't help thinking, the sky was about to fall, what would happen next? What would happen to all the people involved?

"Come here, go and take down the fourth prince for me!" This was Emperor Kang Cheng's first order.

"Yes!" Wei Zili climbed up from his crawling state.

But when Wei Zili just walked out of the door to give orders, he was called back again.

"Wait--"

"Your Majesty?"

Emperor Kang Cheng took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. "Don't arrest anyone first. Let people surround Jingyang Palace secretly."

"Put Xue Huaimin on my list." Emperor Kang Cheng said with a grim smile. His crown prince was dead. They killed his crown prince. The fourth prince was one of his few sons. He hadn't figured out how to deal with him yet. But how could Xue Huaimin and others live? !

Wei Zili quickly realized that the emperor was talking about adding Xue Huaimin to the list of people to be buried with him.

"And the Xie family!" The Xie family, a group of people who curry favor with the powerful! They voted for Song Mo when the crown prince's life and death were uncertain! They want to gain the credit of following the dragon, right? He wants them to get nothing!

"Your Majesty, the Xie family has nearly two hundred people in the whole clan. This--" Wei Zili reminded in a low voice.
