As the saying goes, you can't have your cake and eat it too.
Staying in the capital has the benefits of staying in the capital, and going to the border has the benefits of going to the border. Whatever you want to gain, you must lose something, so that balance can be maintained.
After the second prince lost power, the old gang in Jiangge set their sights on the young tenth prince.
Prince Xuan is already an adult, but the tenth prince is only seven years old, which is an age that is easy to control.
Of course, the old fox also had a purpose in doing this. He saw clearly the old emperor's unwillingness to give up the throne, and the younger the prince was, the safer it would be. Otherwise, the second prince would lose power and Jiang Ge would take the lead.
However, he was not implicated because he was smart enough and escaped quickly enough. It was a pity that his carefully raised daughter, the second princess, was killed.
Half a month later, the snow stopped and the army set off.
Under the leadership of King Xuan, all civil and military officials sent the soldiers out of the city.
In the crowd, the eyes of King Zhong and Lu Yi met.
The two of them didn't say a word, but they both knew what the other was thinking.
From the moment Lu Yi chose to be loyal to the king, he had no other way out. In these days, whether the prince or the second prince, they all have his handiwork.
If they hadn't been adding fuel to the flames, the two of them wouldn't have fallen so quickly. As for the man sitting on the Dragon Throne, now is not the time, after all, there is no fool who can fool him better than him.
At this moment, both of them had the same thought in their hearts, that is, they hoped that the old emperor would live for a while longer until the loyal king came back after having made great contributions.
Lu Zhiyun looked at Xie Chengjin who was wearing armor.
The young general is so heroic and heroic, but I don’t know how many girls can’t sleep.
The first time she saw him, she felt that he was too good-looking, like a particularly gorgeous piece of clothing, so gorgeous that even touching it felt like blasphemy.
But if you peel off the shell, he is a very strange person.
Xie Chengjin blinked at Lu Zhiyun and said something silently.
Lu Zhiyun saw it, what he said was - wait for me, little girl.
"Xie Chengjin's body is filled with the blood of the Fenglin Kingdom royal family." Lu Shaoyu said from the side, "If the war between the two armies becomes tense, it is very likely that he will be sent to sacrifice the flag."
"Brother, why are you telling me this?" Lu Zhiyun's heart tightened.
Isn't it too cruel that such a good-looking person should be sacrificed?
"It's nothing, I just felt it." Lu Shaoyu said, "They have gone far, let's go back!"
Just as Lu Yi returned to Dali Temple, Jia Chengping came over and said, "We have found new clues, and we have some clues about the matter you want to investigate."
"Really?" Lu Yi quickened his pace, "Where is it?"
"In prison."
The matter that Lu Yi wanted to investigate was, of course, the death of his parents.
His parents died unjustly because of a woman, but he sent out so many people, but no one found out who the woman was. As long as the identity of the woman was found out, everything would be solved.
When Lu Yi came out of the prison, he immediately called Xia Kun and said, "Check with Mrs. Yin in the eldest princess's mansion."
"The daughter-in-law of the eldest princess?"
"That's right."
"That's a sick child. She has been eating fast and chanting Buddha's name in the house for so many years. She rarely comes out to meet people. What does this person have to do with her?"
"I just got the news that the woman who was humiliated in the temple was most likely Mrs. Yin."
"Okay, I'll check it right away."
Xia Kun's connections were combined with Lu Yi's connections to form a new intelligence network.
However, such a complete intelligence network did not find out everything about Mrs. Yin. It can only be said that the person who secretly erased all traces was very capable.
In the evening, Lu Yi called Lu Xuan and his wife to the mansion for dinner.
Mu Siyu and Su Zhiliu left the table early, and their sisters-in-law took a few children to play. Of course, they mainly played with Xiao Qing'er. Xiao Yun'er and Lu Shaoyu each have their own things to be busy with, and there are very few now.
Stay with your parents.
Xia Kun went out to do business today, so he didn't call An Yu.
Only brothers Lu Yi and Lu Xuan were left at the dinner table. Lu Yi told Lu Xuan what he had found.
"I asked Xia Kun to continue to investigate. If it is really Mrs. Yin, then the person who killed my parents is inseparable from the eldest princess's mansion."
"If it's really the eldest princess's mansion, what's your plan?"
"Of course we can't keep them." Lu Yi said coldly, "We have been investigating for so long just to avenge our parents. However, we still need to verify all this, and we will do it after we find out everything."
In the side room, Lu Zhiqing was playing in the toy area. Accompanying her were several little maids from the mansion, aged between six and ten years old.
Mu Siyu and Su Zhiliu were talking.
"How is Xiaoyun'er's recent homework?"
"My husbands all say that she is very talented and can learn everything very quickly. I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to do chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and songs without her. Not long ago, a poem was circulated, and she became known as a talented woman."
"The government is so strict, and the poems are being circulated. Is that what Big Brother meant?"
"Without his permission, who would dare to violate the Lu family's taboo?" Mu Siyu said, "Last time Xiao Yun'er attended the banquet, a junior who was not afraid of death said a few frivolous words and broke two ribs. Capital City
Who here doesn’t know that Mr. Lu is a slave to his daughter? You can call him treacherous and cruel, but you can’t say anything about his daughter.”
"Brother, this is great."
"How about your cousin? Is she still living at your house?"
"I'm planning to tell my mother that I want them to move to another courtyard."
"Although we are relatives, it's really uncomfortable to live together all the time. Your cousin is very familiar with her, and she didn't express anything after living here for so long."
Some people just talk about it without mentioning it. That night, Xiao Zhen’s husband, who was suffering from tuberculosis, left.
The next day, Mrs. Xiao will start preparing for Xiao Zhen's husband's wedding.
Seven days later, the deceased was laid to rest.
While Ms. Xiao was worried about her husband going to the border to fight, she also had to take care of her niece who was ill.
Of course, it was difficult to let her live in another hospital at this time. After all, her husband had just died and it was a time of grief, so Xiao Zhen stayed at Su's house.
"Miss, I have your letter." Ding Xiang walked in holding the letter. "Guess who wrote it?"
Lu Zhiyun took the last shot and said, "I don't have many friends, so I can't guess."
"You guessed it, you just didn't want to say it." Ding Xiang handed the letter to her, "Let's take a look, I don't know what is written."
Lu Zhiyun took the letter.
When you open it, you will see the text with flying dragons and phoenixes.
She didn't read the content, but just read the signature.
Brocade.
Xie Chengjin.
Not long after he left, a letter came immediately. Is it okay for this man to go to war in such a state?
She glanced at the contents of the letter first.
Most of them were about the scenery on the road. At the end, he mentioned an important point, saying that King Zhong was very polite to him, and that he learned from King Zhong's mouth that this was Lord Lu Yi's advice.
Lu Zhiyun muttered: "So what? Is my father a good-natured person?"
