116: Borrowing a knife to kill someone

The outside of the carriage was hot and the inside was a bronze beast horn ice cream, and the cold wind stormed.

The cold sweat on the eunuch's forehead couldn't stop oozing out, and the car was silent, which scared him so much that he even breathed very low.

It took a long time before Angel Shao moved his palm away, leaned against the brocade mat, stretched his waist and said lightly, "Sun Ming, when have you become so stupid!"

"It's my grandson who is stupid, so please let the ancestors make it clear."

The little eunuch Sun Ming pressed his forehead lower and pressed it tightly against the carpet.

Angel Shao is an extremely old man in Shenjing, an old man without roots, but he has ten "sons" and "fifteen grandsons" under him.

The young eunuch who went south with him this time was the latest one, his fifteenth grandson.

If he hadn't seen that this fifteenth grandson was filial, he would have been respectful to him. Unlike those ten "sons", he would have rarely been respectful after becoming a chief prison in the inner court, and he would have been more infighting.

However, this is also his pleasure in seeing it. Only when the people below are keen on fighting can he weigh the trade-offs.

"Although he did not agree explicitly, he did not refuse. How could a monk who had just grown up be comparable to those old antiques in Shenjing?"

Angel Shao raised his white eyebrows slightly, looked at Jinling City outside the curtains, listened to the hawking of the servants and friends in the streets not far away, and nodded softly.

"Oh, grandson understands."

The little eunuch Sun Ming raised his head slightly, showed a well-behaved smile, crawled forward, came to Angel Shao's feet, knelt on both knees, and gently kneaded Angel Shao's calves with both hands.

"The ancestors wanted to use the Xu boy to stir up the Shenjing and let those old guys fight. If they beat the young, the old ones would naturally stand up for the young ones."

"As long as that boy doesn't get into evil with us and let him be glorious in Shenjing, someone will deal with him for us."

The little eunuch Sun Ming thought he had guessed Angel Shao's thoughts, and he smiled silly, and his hand speed increased a little, making Angel Shao very comfortable to knead.

Angel Shao stretched out his arms, moved his neck, and murmured softly, "Xiao Shiwu's technique is the most familiar, good, good."

"Thank you for your praise from ancestors, this is what my grandson should do."

The little eunuch Sun Ming had a gentle smile on his face. I don’t know how long he had practiced, even Angel Shao, who was "ageing and becoming a spirit", did not notice the strange look deep in Sun Ming’s eyes.

On the way back to the Jinling Inn, Lu Mingyuan did not return to the official office like Qin Ruhai, but instead returned to the house. Chinese website

The Lu family is a poor family in Jiangnan. Although they do not have the wealth and power of the aristocratic family, the Lu family has also accumulated a lot of connections among the aristocratic family and the powerful since Lu Mingyuan took charge of the Jinling Mansion for so many years.

Lu Wenwei became the most eye-catching young master of the Lu family.

The moment Lu Mingyuan stepped into the mansion, he subconsciously looked to his side.

He was a little confused and lost. On weekdays, Lu Wenwei would always stand in front of the mansion when he was in the yamen, and on the way to the study, he would inform him of the important matters of the day and the key points.

At this time, Lu Mingyuan looked at the stone steps, empty.

"Oh, Wen Wei is gone."

Lu Mingyuan sighed lightly, his body staggered a little, fortunately the old housekeeper on the side hurried forward and supported him.

"Master, are you okay? Do you want to hire a doctor?"

The old housekeeper is named Lu Haiping. He has followed Lu Mingyuan for decades. He is considered an old man from the Lu Mansion and the person Lu Mingyuan trusts the most.

Looking at Lu Haiping who was supporting him, Lu Mingyuan's mouth twitched slightly, trying his best to suppress the grief in his heart, shook his head slightly, "No, I'm fine."

This scene was seen by a young man standing in the veranda not far away. The young man was wearing a plain dress and a plain white linen strap was tied around his waist.

Lu Wenwei had just passed away, and everyone in the mansion was dressed in plain clothes.

A sharp flashed in the young man's eyes and turned around and was about to leave.

The moment they turned around, they just ran into a slightly younger young man, and the two looked similar.

The young young master has beautiful eyes, even if it is

Wearing plain white robes, he also has the demeanor of a handsome nobleman.

"Second brother, what are you doing?" said the young man in silence. He was hit by his second brother and his voice rose a little.

"Stop!" The young man glared at the young master coldly and warned with his eyes, "Doway!"

The young man's voice "suddenly" said, and he did not dare to anger his second brother. He shrank his neck and was pulled by the young man's sleeves. The two of them went to the shadow of the corridor behind the corridor together.

As Lu Mingyuan's other two sons, the second son Lu Wenxin and the third son Lu Wenyuan.

One likes reading, the other likes listening to music on the railing.

When the news of Lu Wenwei's sudden death came, Lu Wenxin, the second son of the Lu family, was still lying in the pile of makeup, while the third son Lu Wenyuan, was chanting poems and essays in Gaoyuelou with a group of Wenmo scholars.

Both of them were carried back to the house by their servants when they were drunk.

When Lu Mingyuan saw the two of them, he was very angry and almost used the family method to destroy the two rebellious sons. Fortunately, the two wives came out to persuade each other, and finally waited until the old lady came forward to stop the farce.

Now, the courtyard of Lu Mansion is bleak, and the pavilions and pavilions are hung in the corridors and pavilions, and the servants and maids are also dressed in simple clothes.

Even the ladies and ladies in the backyard were asked to dress simply, which shows how identities and status Lu Wenwei was in Lu Mingyuan's heart.

The old butler Lu Haiping helped Lu Mingyuan to the study in the front yard. The servants he met along the way hurriedly made way and bowed.

Everyone had a sad look on their faces. Although they didn't know whether they were sincere, everyone was ready for fear of being hit by the master, being beaten by a heavy stick, throwing them out of Lu's mansion and rushing to the village outside the city.

Floating flat waves, fish jumping in the curved alleys.

The Hehuazhai is a three-story wooden study in the front yard of Lu Mansion.

At that time, the pond was filled with lotus flowers, and there was a bluestone bridge that opened the secluded path.

Faced with such a ray of light water scene, Lu Mingyuan had no mood to appreciate it.

Before, the old butler discovered the little movements of the two rebellious sons and just said softly to Lu Mingyuan's ear.

Still silent in the grief and anger of losing his son, he met Angel Shao to reuse the boy of the Xu family, and Lu Mingyuan even became a ball of nameless fire from the soles of his feet.

After entering the study, the old housekeeper ordered people to add large pieces of ice to several ice mirrors in the study, which reduced the temperature in the room, so as to calm the master's bored mood.

"That idiot Duan Tian! He is so uncautious in his work."

Lu Mingyuan stood in front of the desk, waved his hand suddenly, lifted the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk and some documents, and said angrily.

"Master, you can calm your breath. Your health is important."

Standing at the door of the study, Lu Mingyuan glanced out of the house with his eyes and confirmed that there were no one around, then he spoke, "The master of the sect has not succeeded in the Xu Mansion, so this matter should be concluded as soon as possible."

"Finishing? How to finish? I have a son who died! That is my favorite son!"

Lu Mingyuan suddenly turned his head, looked angry, his hair and beard were wide open, and he was waiting for Lu Haiping coldly.

"Master, this matter has to be discussed for a long time. The boy from the Xu family is very strong, and now there is an angel from Shenjing to take care of him. I'm afraid that the inside of the sect will really have no choice but to deal with him for a while."

Lu Haiping suppressed the restlessness in his heart and tried his best to persuade him.

"If you now have a broken-up with the boy of the Xu family, it will be unfavorable to the master and will also add to the trouble to the Lu Mansion. After the incident in Guangling Mansion, the court's vigilance against the Yin-Yang Gate was even more common. The sect leader was seriously injured, and it would be even more impossible to visit Jinling in person for a while..."

"I know all these guys! Do you want my son to die in vain? I'm very angry!"

Lu Mingyuan held the desk tightly with his hands, leaving several deep handprints on the table of the pear blossoms, and a faint cold light shone in his eyes.

"The Lu family and Yin-Yang Sect have been working together for so many years, and Wen Wei has also broken through from the ordinary body to the monk body. Everything has developed in a good direction, but now? I have lost everything! All of this must be blamed for that boy Xu Fan!"

"Haiping, I don't care what you use

Any way, I must have Xu Fan’s head. I will use his head to pay tribute to Wen Wei.”

Lu Mingyuan's eyes were so angry that he was breathing heavily, his forehead was bulging, and he completely lost his mind, and he no longer had the manner of the former prefect of Jinling.

At this moment, he was like a beast that had lost his cub, showing his bloodthirsty and cruel side.

Standing at the entrance of the study, Lu Haiping looked at Lu Mingyuan's back and looked at the rising and falling figure. He guessed that the master was so angry that he could not be more angry. It was also very determined that the Angels Shao could restrain themselves in Qin Ruhai.

"Master, we can kill people with a knife!"

A hint of cunning flashed in Lu Haiping's eyes. Since the Xu Mansion moved into Jinling City, as the butler of the Lu Mansion, Lu Haiping has privately investigated everything about Xu Fan clearly.

This was his duty, and it was also a small information about the Lu family's grasp of the dynamics of each family in Jinling City.

But now, it has become an important bargaining chip.

"Borrowing a knife to kill someone?" Lu Ming turned his head away and looked back at Lu Haiping, staring at the other party with a cold eyes like an eagle.

"It is precisely. The old slave sent someone to investigate the Xu family before and learned that Xu Fan had a marriage in his fingertips."

Meeting Lu Mingyuan's cold eyes, looking at the red bloodshots rising in his pupils, Lu Haiping hurriedly replied.

"The Thirteen Flowers of Jinling, the lady of the Zhen family, Zhen Baochai."

"Zhen Family? Xu Family?" Lu Mingyuan patted his head gently with his palm, trying to remember the connection between the two families.

Seeing this, Lu Haiping continued, "The ancestors of the Lu family and Zhen family are also closely related. The contemporary head of the Zhen family and Xu Fan's father Xu Jingping are also classmates and close friends. The two have made an agreement."

"Well, I remembered it. The Zhen family is responsible for Jiangnan manufacturing. It is also considered a family with connections in Shenjing. The Xu family can only be considered half of the imperial merchant. There is some connection between the two families, which is normal."

Lu Mingyuan calmed down his restlessness, and after he finished writing the desk, he picked up the cold tea on the side and drank it in a big mouthful.

"Continue, how can I kill someone with a knife?"

"Then the lady of Zhen family is Zhen Baochai. She doesn't like Xu Fan. I heard that the lady of Zhen family has had a close relationship with the prince of the Nan'an Prince's Mansion in private, and the two often go in and out in private."
