After returning to Shizi Mansion, Steward Li immediately greeted him when he heard the movement, "Ouch!" After a long time, he hurriedly looked up and down, then began to wipe the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, and said in a crying voice, "You're back?! You lost weight... It’s black too! My son——have you suffered along the way? Huh?”

Feng Qing couldn't laugh or cry, he was taken care of by Lu Siheng and Li Qiu a lot on the way, even when he was rushing back, he didn't go hungry, he could lose weight anywhere, he even felt that he was a little fatter.As for the skin color...the two of them were a little darker, but he didn't change much, because every time he went out, he couldn't pick up the heat, even if he was outside in the sun, he would still wear the straw hat woven by Lu Siheng.

Knowing that Butler Li was afraid that he would have a bad time outside, Feng Qing said with a smile: "Don't worry, I didn't suffer outside, and Lu Siheng took good care of me."

When Steward Li heard this, he immediately took off his sleeve, smiled, and said, "It's fine if you don't suffer, it's fine if you don't suffer."

Feng Qing shook his head helplessly, and he didn't know what strange fate it was. One or two of him had this kind of character, this one acted pitifully, and that one was shameless.When he walked in, he casually asked, "Is everything alright at home?"

Although the letter Lu Siheng received before stated that nothing happened in Dingguo's mansion, he still felt more at ease by asking.

As soon as he mentioned this, Steward Li's expression immediately became serious. He followed Feng Qing and said in a low voice: "Right now, you are not allowed to go out indiscriminately in Beijing. The prince has not come over at the mansion for a while, and we are not allowed to go out." Go out, I told you before, I will let you go there when you come." Then, he reached out to help Feng Qing open the curtain.

"Well," Feng Qing stepped in and said, "I'll come back today to have a look. I'll settle down the people below and let them go on vacation. You and I go to father's place."

"Hey, I'll go pay the wages later and send them away." Butler Li said in a low voice with a sad face on his face, "Now Beijing is in chaos. What do you think you are doing when you come back? Being in Jiangnan is no better than being in Beijing." Is it safe?"

Feng Qing packed her things, and said with a smile when she heard the words: "If you insist on telling me what you already know, you just can't let go of your family members, not to mention how good Jiangnan is, how can you hide forever? Come back."

"That's what you said," Steward Li also went over to help with the things, "You don't have the skills, and you don't have a helper. If something happens, how can the old slave live."

Stopping what she was doing, Feng Qing sighed softly, looked at Steward Li, and said, "You are the person who has been with me the longest, I am telling you this because it is unclear how long this matter will take, so as not to You've been worried all this time, and you've scared yourself out of your wits." Speaking of this, Feng Qing smiled: "When Lu Siheng came back, he told me that he sent the people around him to follow him, and they were all extremely skilled. OK, you don't have to worry."

"That's a good thing." Li Butler's first reaction was to be happy, and then he realized, and asked: "He gave it to you, what should the General's Mansion do?"

"Don't worry." Feng Qing didn't explain carefully, after all, even he couldn't be completely relieved.

Seeing this, Steward Li didn't ask any more questions, and thought in his heart: Sure enough, the relationship between the two of them will be better after going out, and their sons just lack friends like Young General Lu.

After following Feng Qing to tidy up for a while, when the tidying up was almost done, Steward Li went out to settle for other people after receiving instructions.

The servants of the general's mansion let them go early, and only a few old people in the mansion who were unwilling to leave stayed.

Now that Lu Fang is so busy every day, the huge general’s mansion is empty and there are only a few people left. Seeing that Lu Siheng has returned, these people seem to have a backbone. An old housekeeper said pleasantly: “The young general is back. Already?!"

Lu Siheng nodded and said, "Where's father?"

"The general doesn't know what he's been working on these days, and the old slaves basically don't see him," the old housekeeper sighed, "Now that you're back, you can feel at ease."

Probably knowing what Lu Fang was going to do, Lu Siheng didn't ask any more, but turned to Li Qiu and said, "Okay, you can go home too."

Li Qiu followed beside him and whispered: "Young General, why don't I stay in the General's Mansion for a few days?"

Patting Li Qiu on the shoulder, Lu Siheng said, "It's okay, you can go back, your mother is still waiting for you."

Li Qiu thought for a while, and didn't refuse, and said, "Well, that's it, I'll go back first, and when you need me, send someone to tell me, and I'll come over right away."

Lu Siheng didn't say anything dead, so he smiled and said, "Okay."

After comforting his servants, Lu Siheng put all his things away, and was about to go to another courtyard when Lu Fang came back.

"Heng'er is back." Lu Fang entered the door and took a look at Lu Siheng. Seeing that there was no sadness between his brows, he knew that the matter between him and Feng Qing should be settled. did not ask.

Lu Siheng nodded and said, "Mother, are they okay now?"

"Your mother and the princess are both placed in another courtyard, and people are sent to watch over there. There is nothing wrong with it for the time being. Qian'er is in the palace and has been helping the emperor take care of his health. You also know that at this juncture, he has no way to come back." Lu Fang said, sitting aside, frowned and said: "You should know the situation in Beijing, the emperor knows that you are coming back today, and asked you to place your people in the palace."

"What's going on now, I need my father to explain it to me carefully." Lu Siheng went over and sat down.

"The emperor allowed King Ping to control the capital, so that we can catch them all at once," Lu Fang said succinctly about the current situation: "All the people who were placed in the palace by King Ping have been replaced, and the only unstable factor now is It is not entirely clear how many troops he plans to bring. At that time, I will lead troops to guard the Meridian Gate, and the other three gates will be guarded by the imperial guards, Jin Yiwei, and the deputy general, and you..." Speaking of this, Lu Fang paused and looked at Lu Siheng.

Lu Siheng took over the words: "I am in charge of leading people to stand by the emperor's side to protect the emperor's safety."

Hearing Lu Siheng's words, Lu Fang looked strange for a moment. Before Lu Siheng could think about it, he heard Lu Fang say: "The emperor ordered you to protect the fifth prince regardless of the consequences. If you can ensure the safety of everyone If you want to capture King Ping alive, he will be spared, if not, you will be killed on the spot."

Lu Siheng was taken aback for a moment, and then understood Emperor Chongyang's intentions. For a moment, he suddenly felt that the emperor should not have passed away so early.

Under normal circumstances, even if a person knows that he has a few days to live, he will never give up his own safety at such a time. It may not be because Emperor Chongyang is so great or not afraid of death. He just appeared again. Based on the emperor's consideration, he understood what was the most important thing at the moment, and what they did all this for, so he was able to make such a decision.Emperor Chongyang may not be a good father, but this does not prevent Lu Siheng from sincerely thinking that he is a good emperor.

Although the emperor didn't ask him to protect him, as a subject, he still puts the emperor's safety before himself.As the male lead in the novel, Xiao Jingchen's abilities are naturally not bad, at least Xiao Jingyu can't help him.After thinking about it in his mind, Lu Siheng nodded in response and said, "Are you sure when Prince Ping will do it?"

"Just the day after tomorrow." Lu Fang said.

Lu Siheng felt very nervous, but if they came back later, the situation in Beijing might change rapidly.

"Now that King Ping and the Beirong people have controlled all the city, if I want to bring people into the palace, I'm afraid it will alarm King Ping." Lu Siheng said.

"I've prepared everything for you. When the time comes at night, you will let your people come out. There is only one stick of incense. During this time, they must all be in place, otherwise they may be discovered by King Ping's people." .” Lu Fang said.

Lu Siheng nodded. He calculated the number of people he could have in his mind. Except for those sent to guard Feng Qing, the rest of the hidden guards would be added to the barracks. It would be no problem to protect Xiao Jingchen and Emperor Chongyang at that time.

After finishing speaking, Lu Siheng stood up and said, "In that case, I'll go to the barracks to settle down first, and wait..."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Siheng stopped talking, and looked at Lu Fang, Lu Fang gave him a reassuring look, and said to the outside world: "What's the matter?"

The hidden guard whispered outside: "General, the princess is gone."

Lu Fang and Lu Siheng stood up abruptly, Lu Fang frowned and said, "Come in and talk."

The hidden guard looked left and right, then entered the door and knelt on the ground. Before Lu Fang could ask, he took the initiative to speak, and explained the future without personal emotion: "Earlier this morning, the princess said that she would go shopping with Nanny Gui." Yu, his subordinates, An San and An Si followed out the door, but when they reached a deserted place, they suddenly killed a dozen dead men from the surrounding area. They had arrows in their hands, and they had been lying in ambush on the surrounding roofs for a long time. The subordinates were defeated. During the fight, An San was hit by a poisoned arrow and died on the spot. The subordinates asked An Si to protect the princess and leave first. After the subordinates escaped fortunately, they only found the body of An Si. The princess and Nanny Gui Missing."

The whole thing was carefully planned, and it could never be a whim. There is only one possibility: Nanny Gui was Xiao Jingyu's person from the beginning.It's just that she was sent by the emperor to the princess before she could play a role in the palace. Now that Xiao Jingyu knew that the princess was pregnant, she tied the princess directly and used it to threaten Lu Fang.

Lu Fang clenched his fists tightly. If King Ping pushes the princess out at that time, he can't really give up the overall situation because of his own selfishness being restrained by King Ping. But if he doesn't care about the princess, how can he explain to Qian'er?

Lu Siheng didn't expect Xiao Jingyu to keep such a trick, he quickly calmed down: "Now that the princess is captured by King Ping, her life will not be in danger for the time being, let's proceed according to the plan, and I will take someone there tomorrow Let's see if we can rescue the princess, if not, let's find a way."

Lu Fang waved his hand wearily, that's all he could do.

Lu Siheng snapped his fingers, and one person jumped in from the window.

Looking at the kneeling hidden guard, Lu Siheng said: "Tell him what you are responsible for. You have been seriously injured. Go down and recuperate well. After the matter is over, you can go and receive the punishment yourself."

The dark guard lowered his head and said, "Yes."
