I became the cannon fodder who died early, and I angrily married the villain

Lu Desheng felt strange when he entered the palace that day. He always felt that the palace was more depressing than before.

Seeing that he looked strange, Wei Zili came out to greet him when he had time and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's just that it feels like the surrounding area is stagnant, making me breathless."

Wei Zili said in his heart, Mr. Lu has such a beast-like intuition.

After receiving the battle report of the death of the prince, the emperor finally fainted from anger. When he woke up, the emperor had ordered all news to be blocked, but he did not mention how to deal with the Xie family, and he did not dare to ask. But it is certain that Xue Huaimin and the Xie family cannot get along.

He couldn't say this fatal thing. As soon as he said it, he would not survive the third watch.

Emperor Kang Cheng in the palace had already regained his composure. After teasing his five-year-old grandson again, he waved his hand and asked the wet nurse to take him down. It was too late for the prince's legitimate son to be born, but there was nothing that could be done about it. The prince's concubine gave birth to two daughters in succession, and it took another year to nurse her back to health before giving birth to her son Song An.

Lu Desheng's heart skipped a beat when he saw Song An being held in the nanny's arms!

In the palace, Emperor Kang Cheng's face became increasingly gloomy. He looked at Lu Desheng and said, "Lu Aiqing, I ask you a question. Please answer it honestly."

Lu Desheng: What should I do if I have a bad feeling and don’t want to continue?

But Emperor Kang Cheng would not give him a chance. He asked directly, "What would you do if your younger son killed your eldest son in order to inherit the family business?"

Wei Zili, who was standing next to him, felt pity for Master Lu as he listened, but when he thought that the emperor would not let him be buried with him, it was just to embarrass him, shouldn't he?

Lu Desheng was so excited when he heard this question! emperor! Is this question acceptable to me? ah! Mother, no, daughter, something really happened to the prince!

"Your Majesty, I am not stupid." Lu Desheng reminded him tactfully. You don’t think Wei Chen is a fool, do you? Weichen can think of it!

Emperor Kang Cheng burst into laughter. His smile affected his lungs and he coughed twice more. "Stop talking nonsense and answer well!"

After not hearing his reply for a long time, Emperor Kang Cheng raised his eyes and looked at him, huh?

Your Majesty, why do you like to embarrass me so much? Wei Chen doesn't want to answer this question at all.

Lu Desheng carefully replied, "Your Majesty, Weichen feels that the little wealth of Weichen's family is not enough to make Weichen's youngest son so crazy. Bah, bah, bah, Weichen is wrong. It's not that he is crazy, but... it's... …”

Lu Desheng was silent for a long time, but he didn't say anything else.

frenzied--

Emperor Kang Cheng chewed these four words, wasn't he just crazy?

"Then what will you do?" Emperor Kang Cheng asked persistently.

Is this a gift question? Which side should he take? Lu Desheng was so anxious!

On the side of the prince, the fourth prince was offended. The emperor obviously did not want the fourth prince to sacrifice his life for the prince. Otherwise, he would not have come to ask him this question, and he would have just made his own decision. By siding with the fourth prince, it was not only the dead prince who was offended, but also the emperor!

Lu Desheng understood, so he simply closed his eyes, with a calm heart, and boldly replied, "Wei Chen will definitely punish him severely. This bastard dares to plot against his brother and kill him for this little bit of family fortune. Who knows whether he will do it another day?" Are you afraid of killing my old father because of that little bit of family property?"

Emperor Kangcheng sighed, the factors considered by their monarchs and ministers were different.

"Your Majesty, please, please spare Wei Chen? Wei Chen is thinking too hard about this kind of problem."

"Okay, let's go back! Wei Zili, help me see him off." Emperor Kang Cheng waved his hand at him. He was out of energy and would not keep him.

Lu Desheng left, turning back three times with each step, "Your Majesty, you must take good care of your dragon body."

When leaving the palace, Wei Zili took the opportunity to slip a small note to him, and Lu Desheng calmly took it.

"Master Lu, you understand what you can and can't say after leaving the palace, right?"

"I understand, I understand."

As soon as Lu Desheng left the palace and boarded his carriage, he quickly ordered, "Old Li Tou, hurry up, drive faster!"

Old Li gave the order, whipped the whip in his hand, and the new carriage ran at its fastest speed.

At this time, Lu Songli was studying the information sent back from Lishan Villa in the study. The Qin family also sent the information she specified about the Xie and Zhao families. She needed to sort it out and extract it from it. The information she wanted.

After Zhao Bin's information was returned, she wrote a letter to the Qin family, asking if the Qin family had collected any information about the Xie and Zhao families over the years, and if so, could they make a copy for her.

Qin Heng received Lu Songli's letter. After reading the letter, he asked his confidants to collect information about the Xie Zhao family and the Queen Mother's family that the Qin family had collected over the years.

Send them to the Lu family together.

"Ah Heng, when will Ah Sheng come back?" As soon as he finished giving instructions, he saw his mother walking in with someone. He is already thirteen, and the groom has never even tried on his wedding attire. Is that ridiculous?

There are only two days left until the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, so no wonder his mother is anxious. He calculated Asheng's speed and rushed from Baihe Town to Chang'an City. In three days, he should be able to barely return to Chang'an City, right?

Qin Heng reassured Mrs. Qin, saying that Qin Sheng would definitely be able to return to Chang'an City before the fifteenth day.

Mrs. Qin was helpless, but she also knew that no matter how much he said, he would not be able to conjure Asheng out.

After Mrs. Qin left, Qin Heng thought of his fourth brother Qin Ming, who had been separated forever, and felt a tightness in his heart and difficulty breathing. Shiro was only nineteen. Even after the New Year, he was still only twenty. The good son died in a foreign land. Such an outstanding general did not die on the battlefield, but died in the internal struggle of the imperial power...

And the Qin Sheng they mentioned was thousands of miles away, running fast in the wind and snow with his fourth brother.

At Wangjing Inn, Qin Sheng got off the horse first, then carried his fourth brother to the store, and Li Wei hurriedly followed.

As soon as Qin Sheng and his group entered the store, all the guests who were staying overnight stopped their work.

The store owner hurriedly came up to them, "My dear soldiers, are you staying overnight or staying overnight?"

Li Wei told him, "Arrange a few rooms for us, and then bring some hot water and hot food."

"But-but-" The store owner looked at Qin Sheng and didn't dare to speak. He was holding a corpse, right? A corpse wrapped in horsehide...

Qin Sheng glanced at him lightly, "No need to stay overnight, just stay overnight."

Li Wei arranged to stay in the hotel because Qin Sheng's body couldn't bear it. Since he said he didn't need it, forget it. The Qin family is stubborn and it's hard to convince them on small matters.

"Then serve us some hot water and hot food, take care of the horses, and give us some dry food. Thank you, shopkeeper."

Hearing that they would not stay in the hotel, the shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, okay, I'll come right away."

"So, military officer, do you need a coffin? If you need it, I can help arrange it." The shopkeeper saw that they were wearing the uniforms of the soldiers of the Northern Border, and their inn was also very close to the Northern Border. They could feel the breath of war more than the common people in the hinterland of Dali, and they respected the soldiers who defended their country.

Li Wei refused, "Thank you for your kindness, shopkeeper, but it's not necessary." It would be good to put the fourth son in a coffin, but carrying a coffin on the road would delay their speed.

"I'm done eating, I'll wait for you outside." Qin Sheng put down his chopsticks, picked up his fourth brother, and walked out of the lobby.

Li Wei took a look and saw that the sixth son only used the steamed buns and hot water that were served first. He didn't say anything, and asked the other brothers to eat quickly, because they had to hurry on their way.

After Lu Songli integrated the information, she found that Zhao Bin was not honest. The information he gave was nine true and one false, but it was enough. She would not listen to his one-sided words.

After Lu Desheng got home, he went straight to his study.

"My daughter, my daughter, something happened. This time it was really a big deal..."

After Lu Desheng finished speaking, Lu Songli sighed. The prince was not saved after all. And the emperor obviously knew that the death of the prince was caused by the fourth prince.

"My daughter, if the prince is in trouble, will the emperor consider the crown prince's grandson?"

"Why do you ask that?"

"Didn't the emperor talk about the prince that day, and I also brought up your eldest brother, saying that he was not motivated, and also mentioned the idea of ​​training Xiaoxiao. Then today I actually saw the emperor take the prince's eldest son Song An to the Yugan Palace. When the emperor asked me that question just now, I also said that I would severely punish the younger son..." Lu Desheng spoke more and more quietly.

Lu Songli thought to herself, Dad, you are amazing. You have offended the Fourth Prince over and over again.

"Did the child stay in Yugan Palace for a long time?" she asked.

"Not long. It seems that he stayed in Yugan Palace for about two quarters of an hour, and then was sent back to the Crown Princess."

Lu Songli thought for a moment and shook her head. Power will not disappear, but will only be transferred. The eldest son of the Crown Prince, Song An, is only five years old. A weak ruler must be accompanied by a powerful minister who abuses power. It is difficult to get the power back after it is handed over. She thinks that it is unlikely to establish the Crown Prince.

On the contrary, it is more likely to establish the Fourth Prince. As her father judged, when the emperor received the news of the death of the Crown Prince, it was the most irrational and excited time. He did not deal with the Fourth Prince. He had his own considerations.

"I am afraid that the Fourth Prince has a destiny on him." Lu Desheng said angrily. How many times has he been eye drops to Emperor Kang Cheng.

She thought from Emperor Kang Cheng's perspective, "From the emperor's perspective, the crown prince is dead, he is angry, and also worried about who will inherit the throne next. It is true that the fourth prince killed the crown prince, but it also shows his ability. Among the remaining three princes, he is undoubtedly outstanding." People's hearts are very dark.

Lu Desheng curled his lips.

"Putting aside the fact that he plotted to kill the crown prince, from a rational point of view, the fourth prince is the most suitable to succeed to the throne among the three."

Lu Desheng: "Okay."

"Now our emperor has two choices. One is to choose someone else, the second prince, the third prince, or the crown prince, so that the fourth prince's plan will fail and slap him in the face!"

Hearing this, Lu Desheng's eyes lit up.

"But, although it is refreshing, it will bring hidden dangers or turmoil to the Dali Dynasty. Our emperor is a qualified emperor. He has been an emperor for more than 20 years and is restrained. He should not want to let the foundation of his ancestors fail because of his momentary willfulness."

Lv Desheng nodded reluctantly, "I agree with you." Emperor Kangcheng is indeed such a person.

Lv Songli guessed that their emperor would eventually overcome anger with reason and give the fourth prince a chance. It is estimated that Emperor Kangcheng is looking at the fourth prince coldly at this moment.

Now it depends on what the fourth prince does. His actions determine whether he can become the heir and the severity of the board that falls on him.

Lv Desheng smacked his lips and said, "If the fourth prince succeeds to the throne, the prince will die unjustly."

Politics is so cruel.

"Yes, it is precisely because the prince died unjustly that Emperor Kang Cheng, out of guilt, will let more people go down to bury him." Speaking of this, Lu Songli's mood became heavy. The Qin family...

If the emperor wants to protect the fourth prince, then the matter of the brothers Ni Qiang cannot be brought to the table. Otherwise, the new emperor's position is not legitimate, and he cannot convince the people, and it is easy to cause trouble.

"And those ministers around the Fourth Prince who are seeking to gain the emperor's favor will surely bear the emperor's wrath."

Lü Desheng nodded, "That's right, these daring people have murdered the prince, can the emperor forgive them?"

"Wait, when I left the palace just now, Wei Zili secretly slipped me a note, let me see." He said as he took out the note from the clothespin.
