The dim back

Zhang Yulu found Lin Xuefeng and asked him, "I heard that you are very popular with them recently. Can you help me find out something?"

Lin Xuefeng had no doubts, nodded and said, "I still have the ability to do this, tell me about it."

Zhang Yulu sighed, "Qiu Feng married the prince very quickly, on the same day as me."

Lin Xuefeng thought his chance had come, so he spoke shamelessly: "Isn't it just to borrow a name? I have heard about this matter a long time ago."

Zhang Yulu pretended to cry and said, "My life is so miserable. My wedding date is coming soon, but I am marrying someone else. I feel so wronged."

Lin Xuefeng didn't think so: "The Queen Mother has been paying attention to you, but the Queen Mother hopes that Liu Zhongqing will be in a state of anxiety, so that he will not be able to help the emperor with his plans."

Hearing Lin Xuefeng say this, Zhang Yulu tried to contact Lin Xuefeng: "How about you help me? Tell the Queen Mother not to approve their marriage."

Lin Xuefeng smiled bitterly and said, "The Queen Mother is a moody person who changes her mind from moment to moment. If I say something wrong, I'm afraid I'll be punished."

Zhang Yulu looked very aggrieved, and said with tears on her face: "Then what should I do? I can't easily cancel the engagement now. Your Majesty, why did you give me to Liu Zhongqing?"

Lin Xuefeng, of course, has his own ideas: "I do have a way. You can ask the princess for help. If the princess asks the queen mother, I believe she will show leniency."

Liu Zhongqing once told Zhang Yulu that if the princess wanted to ask the Queen Mother for help, she would have to pay a heavy price.

Zhang Yulu thinks that they should take it slow, but she doesn’t know if Liu Zhongqing has made any good gains.

Liu Zhongqing hurriedly found Shi Manyu, who was a relatively gentle person.

Shi Manyu said to Liu Zhongqing, "Princess Honglian is watching me closely now, so I can't go out for the next two days. But I will definitely help with Zhang Yulu's matter."

Liu Zhongqing was not worried about this: "I felt that Lord Lu had some hidden meaning in his words yesterday, which made me feel that he was too polite."

Shi Manyu actually told the truth: "What on earth are you telling me? Do you remember what I said a few days ago? Princess Honglian is not a good person."

After hearing these words, Liu Zhongqing understood: "No wonder we couldn't meet for such a long time. It turns out that the Queen Mother must have arranged for you to be by her side. Did you find out any clues?"

Shi Manyu then lowered his voice and said, "In the alley in the south of the city, go find a tofu seller. He will tell you what you want to know."

After hearing this, Liu Zhongqing did not dare to neglect and walked out.

When I rushed to the entrance of the alley, I suddenly saw Zhang Yulu in the alley.

After the two met, Liu Zhongqing began to ask: "It seems that you are also here to find the tofu seller. It turns out that we are looking for the same person."

Zhang Yulu understood what Liu Zhongqing wanted to do.

Zhang Yulu said to Liu Zhongqing, "How about this? I'm in a bad mood, so I'll leave this matter to you first. Let me digest what Li Xuefeng said to me."

Liu Zhongqing naturally noticed something was wrong: "Can you tell me about it? Can I help you analyze it?"

Looking at Zhang Yulu's expression, Liu Zhongqing was very smart and naturally guessed what she meant.

Liu Zhongqing assured again and again: "Let me make it clear to you, Qiu Feng and I are not only childhood sweethearts, we also agreed on a secret."

This sentence caught Zhang Yulu's attention, and Zhang Yulu asked happily: "Since you want to talk, I'll listen."

Liu Zhongqing began to tell Zhang Yulu: "Once I was seriously injured, and a miracle doctor said that since blood transfusion was needed, most people would not do it. Only Qiu Feng stood up and was willing to use his own blood to save me."

Zhang Yulu only realized after hearing this: "No wonder you trust Qiu Feng so much. It turns out that your life was given by Qiu Feng. Don't you find this strange?"

After Zhang Yulu's reminder, Liu Zhongqing asked, "Are you doubting Master Qiu by saying this?"

After hearing these words, Zhang Yulu also said a fact: "I don't want to say anything else. There is only one thing that can be made clear. Don't you think that such a young child could make such a big sacrifice? Wouldn't it be horrible?"

After hearing all this, Zhang Yulu said to Liu Zhongqing, "I'm really tired today. From your behavior, it seems that you don't trust me. Let's stop here and go find the tofu seller."

Liu Zhongqing clearly sensed that Zhang Yulu was angry, so he softened his tone and said, "Let me tell you this, I'm not a fool. Let's finish this matter first."

When the two of them walked in, they saw a tofu seller standing next to them.

When this person saw Liu Zhongqing and Zhang Yulu coming over, he took the initiative to come over and said, "Lord Lu has already communicated with the Queen Mother in private. I think they should have some information about Lord Qiu."

This sentence actually surprised Zhang Yulu and Liu Zhongqing. Neither of them had thought that Lord Qiu's incident would be related to the Queen Mother.

Zhang Yulu didn't want to wait any longer, so she asked in a panic, "How much does the Queen Mother know?"

The tofu seller felt particularly excited: "How do you think the Queen Mother, who is a person of great power in the country, could easily reveal the secret? Lin Xuefeng beside him only knows a little bit of it."

Zhang Yulu immediately said, "It was Lin Xuefeng who asked me to come here."

The tofu seller laughed: "I didn't expect Lin Xuefeng to be so vicious that he let a weak woman like you take risks. The Queen Mother is planning something recently and is trying to get the Emperor to raze your Yiren Villa to the ground."

Zhang Yulu found it particularly exciting. In her novels, the Queen Mother only planned some small incidents, but she didn't expect that it would become a big event here.

Zhang Yulu really didn't write much about the past of Yiren Villa in the novel, and now that it was suddenly brought up, Zhang Yulu was indeed caught off guard.

Zhang Yulu felt a little embarrassed, so he said to Liu Zhongqing: "I hope you can do your best to protect Yiren Villa."

Liu Zhongqing nodded: "I'm afraid my father can help with this matter, and with my mother's connections, I believe it should be possible to save her."

The tofu seller said, "You must be careful of Lord Lu. This man has an unpredictable mind. Shi Manyu and I have been observing him for a long time."

Zhang Yulu felt like a headless fly, not knowing which side he should lean towards.

Liu Zhongqing was also surprised: "I didn't expect things to get to this point. It caught me off guard."
