ancient criminal minds

The next day, the Prince Chu's Mansion hosted a banquet. Lu Qing and Lu Zheng went to the Prince Chu's Mansion in a carriage. Lu Qing's complexion was not good. In fact, since Lu Yuan was arrested and imprisoned, the gossip has never stopped.

Lu Zheng was as honest as a quail, afraid that his father would beat him again when he saw his heart aroused.

The King Chu’s Mansion is right next to the imperial city, occupying a huge area. Emperor Yongning gave it to the King of Chu. I don’t know how many people are jealous. Unfortunately, the King of Chu went to the northern border when he was 15 years old. The mansion has been guarded by the housekeeper. , It wasn't until the King of Chu came back two years ago that he really started to gain popularity.

It's just that the king of Chu has lived in seclusion for the past two years. It was not until the Jiangnan incident broke out that everyone's attention was shifted to this mansion.

This was the first time the King of Chu held a banquet after he returned to Beijing. Even though not many posts were sent out, there was still a constant stream of people at the door.

Lu Qing and his son were welcomed into the hall. When the guests who were still chattering saw them, they were silent for a moment, and then they became lively again, but the distance between Lu Qing and his son was invisible.

This is the first time that Lu Zheng has truly realized the importance of the family to the ancients. Even though the British government has long separated from the Lu family, they are still one in the eyes of the world. Therefore, Lu Yuan's suspicion of killing his wife and father is always the same. Being exposed, even if it's just a rumor, is enough to sell bones and gold.

Several of Lu Qing's friends quickly pulled him aside, and one of them, a red-faced old man, smiled and said, "This is your third son, he really is a good-looking talent."

Lu Zheng cupped his hands: "Uncle Ji." He also greeted the others one by one.

"Your father always says you are naughty, but the old man thinks it's fine. Boys, if you don't make trouble or be naughty, you're just like an embroidered girl!" Ji Cheng patted Lu Zheng's back vigorously, "The old man Rare kid like you!"

"Come on!" An old man surnamed Wang unceremoniously debunked him, "Your granddaughter hasn't married yet, come on, come on, kid from the Lu family, my uncle has a niece who is gentle and virtuous, from IKEA and IKEA." ..."

"It's just ugly!" Ji Cheng added coolly.

"Old man Ji, are you going to fight!"

"Fight, fight, whoever is afraid!"

Lu Zheng was sweating profusely, didn't he come from a banquet?How did you manage to be a matchmaker for him?But Lu Qing's old god is there: "Let them go, it will be fine in a while."

Sure enough, after a while, the two old men hooked up and drank again.

Their table was full of nobles who had fought wars together, and when they chatted loudly, they heard someone next to them sneering: "A big boss is a big boss, even wearing a brocade robe can't hide that earthy smell!"

Ji Cheng had a bad temper and couldn't bear to stand up when he heard it, but was held down by the old guy beside him.

But he heard someone beside him who was not forgiving: "That's right, I don't know etiquette, justice, and shame, and I can even kill my wife and father, really..."

Lu Qing's face darkened, but Ji Cheng couldn't help it anymore, he stood up and was going to teach others a lesson.

At this moment, someone shouted at the door: "His Royal Highness Chu Wang is here."

It stands to reason that the king of Chu, as the master, should have greeted him in the hall early, but he has a high status and is injured, so if he doesn't come to greet him, no one will say anything, not to mention Song Zhiyi is really a smooth-faced person , He greeted everyone and no one felt left out.

The bandages on Rong Zhen's arms have been removed, and he is wearing a prince's attire, which makes him tall and straight, noble and incomparable. His jet-black hair is neatly combed in a golden crown, his long eyebrows are drawn into his temples, and his pair of phoenix eyes are Not frivolous at all, with a high nose and thin lips, because he has been in the army all year round, and he carries the chill of a soldier on his body. As soon as he walked in, the hall suddenly fell silent.

Rong Zhen took a glass of wine: "This king is late, I will punish myself with a glass." After finishing speaking, he drank the wine in the glass neatly.

"Okay!" The crowd suddenly became lively again.

Although Rong Zhen was a little cold, he was well-mannered and did not make the scene colder. On the contrary, many nobles from the military came to toast, and he also drank.

In the middle of the banquet, Rong Zhen temporarily left the banquet because of his injuries. With Song Zhiyi's thoughtfulness, the atmosphere of the banquet was not affected.

Lu Zheng was poured a few glasses of wine by several uncles, his face was flushed and he waved his hands again and again.

Ji Cheng laughed loudly and said, "Nephew, you can't drink too much! Thinking back when your father was in the army with us, you would never get drunk after a thousand cups, you have to practice!"

Lu Zheng was in a daze, pushed them away to find the latrine, the palace was huge, fortunately the little eunuch who was serving at the side led the way, Lu Zheng refused his help, he stumbled for a long time before he found it, after going to the toilet, he was about to go back when he heard a loud noise piano sound.

Lu Zheng rubbed his forehead, thinking it was an auditory hallucination, but he turned back halfway, and followed the sound of the piano to see a pavilion.

Sitting in the pavilion was a young man wearing a large blue gown. His hair was not tied up, but was tied in a knot behind his head with the same color belt of the clothes, and the rest was let down, which made his hair more attractive. His face is like a crown of jade, his eyes are like cold stars, coupled with his slender stature, he is simply a good son in troubled times.

His fingers danced briskly on the strings, and he didn't play any tunes, but he could hear the waves of pine forests, the chirping of birds and insects, and the tinkling of spring water. Lu Zheng never liked to listen to these classical instruments in modern times , but I don’t know that it’s not that the sound of these instruments is not good, but that there are too few people who can play them well.

Ye Wenguan pressed the strings with both hands, and the sound of the piano stopped abruptly. He looked at Lu Zheng who was suddenly awakened, and said with a smile: "Little friend, can't you come and have a talk?"

Lu Zheng thought that this is the Chu Palace, so there would be no danger, so he walked over and asked curiously, "Who are you? Why don't you go to the banquet hall?"

"Me?" Ye Wenguan twitched the strings and made a voiceless sound, "It's just an ordinary person in the world."

Lu Zheng smiled: "Ordinary people can't play such a beautiful piano sound."

Ye Wenguan raised his head and smiled casually: "It's just borrowing a couple of sounds from nature. My friend says it's beautiful, but it's because nature is beautiful." He seemed to have some fun, "I don't know if I can hear it, my friend. Going too far?"

Lu Zheng was stunned. Wuwei Dao was one of the two major religions of the Great Xia Dynasty, and it was fighting against Buddhism and Taoism. However, compared with the temples blooming everywhere, Wuwei Dao was too low-key. They paid attention to advocating nature and following the natural development of things. law.

This is the first time Lu Zheng has seen someone who cultivates Wuwei Dao.

Ye Wenguan said: "I don't have any other specialties, the only thing I'm good at is good looks. Would you like to count?"

Lu Zheng has also heard that Wuwei Dao's face-to-face technique is unparalleled in the world, and it is comparable to Master Liaochen in Fengguo Temple. Lu Zheng met Master Chen, and the other party didn't see anything wrong with him, which made him I also had some doubts about these legends, and when I heard Ye Wenguan say this, I also lost interest.

Ye Wenguan didn't seem to see his perfunctory, and still smiled gently.

Lu Zheng was also a little embarrassed, thinking that there would be no harm in trying it out, he said, "Okay."

Ye Wenguan stretched out his fingers and stroked from Lu Zheng's forehead to the chin, and then from the cheekbone to the chin, his complexion remained unchanged, but his heart was full of turmoil.He believed in Chen's orders. The real Lu Zheng should have died at the age of 15. The lonely soul from the sky took over this body. It's not like he hasn't seen this kind of situation before, but this kind of soul is either heinous or the lone star of the gods. It is doomed Life is not long, that's why he gave Rong Zhen such a suggestion, but at this moment, he hesitated.

"The sky is full, the ground is plump, and the nose is like a gall, which is an indescribable fate for a smooth life." Ye Wenguan said.

Lu Zheng touched his forehead curiously, this was his first time looking at a photo, he thought that people who read a photo would chatter a lot, but Ye Wenguan said such a short sentence.

Ye Wenguan frowned slightly, Lu Zheng's soul and body fit very well, if he saw the other party for the first time, he would never believe that there was a lonely soul living in the other party's body, but the problem was that he had also seen Lu Zheng Zheng's birthday horoscope, no matter how you calculate it, is a sign of death. The horoscope is completely opposite to the face, and it should never be.

Lu Zheng couldn't help asking: "Is there something wrong with me?"

Ye Wenguan shook his head, Wuwei Dao emphasizes being unrestrained and unencumbered, everything he does is self-assured, this is the first time something has left a tangle in his heart.

Lu Zheng didn't know what Ye Wenguan was struggling with. After chatting for a while, he realized that Ye Wenguan was very knowledgeable and knowledgeable. A sense of confidant.

It's just that he stayed for too long, thinking that if he didn't go back, his father would come out to look for him, so he could only reluctantly bid farewell to Ye Wenguan.

After he left, Ye Wenguan sat quietly on the spot for a while before plucking the strings again: "Your Highness, after listening for so long, it's time to come out and show yourself."

The bushes on the side trembled, Rong Zhen pushed aside the leaves and came out, he looked at Ye Wenguan for a while, and then said: "Mr. Ye, your heart is disturbed."

For the first time, a wry smile appeared on Ye Wenguan's usually calm face: "Your Highness, I made a mistake."

"Oh?"

"He shouldn't be drawn into this whirlpool."

Rong Zhen sat opposite Ye Wenguan, and said calmly: "But he is already in it."

"After all, I'm too hasty." Ye Wenguan sighed, earlier Rongzhen sent someone to bring him to Yanjing, no matter how good-tempered he was, he always held a bit of resentment, but now there is only regret .

Rong Zhen asked him: "You said earlier that he was a lonely soul from outside the sky. This king had asked Master Chen before that, but he was different from what you said."

"He is indeed a lonely soul in the sky, but to be precise, he should be the real owner of this body, but he doesn't know what went wrong, which made other souls occupy his body for 15 years, and now he can only soul Return to the original position." Ye Wenguan said, "His birth date is very strange. After Liaochen told his fortune, Mrs. Lu begged Liaochen to change his fate, so Liaochen came to my master. It's a pity. Both were helpless."

"After his soul returns, Mrs. Lu will definitely take him to Fengguo Temple. Liaochen must have seen this, and then realized that he made a mistake in his order back then. He felt ashamed of this young master and knew that he was the rightful master. , in order to protect him, so I lied." Ye Wenguan sighed, "Now, it's what I did, and Chen's painstaking efforts were wasted."
