Let Me Pursue You

Lu Shiqing smiled resignedly.

After thinking about Tong Shaohe's deep intentions at the beginning, he didn't seem to care much about Yuan Cixian's intention to approach him first, anyway, whether she provoked him or not, the result would be the same.

Probably because of this, no matter how clumsy her tricks were when teasing him, he accepted everything she ordered.

Yuan Cixian was also laughing. Satisfied, she tightened the forearm holding his neck slightly, then brought her mouth to his ear, and lightly bit his thin earlobe.

Lu Shiqing shuddered from being bitten by her, and looked at her sullenly.

He can't be teased.

Yuan Cixian was still so stubborn that he stretched out his index finger to poke his lower abdomen, smiled and said coaxingly: "In two days, I will give birth to you."

Although Lu Shiqing was teased by her, his blood was surging, but he was calm in his heart, knowing that her laughter was just an appearance.

She had just married him, and she hadn't completely curbed her playful thoughts. She was still like a child, and she was not ready to be a mother at all. The reason why she suddenly changed her attitude was probably because of the nightmare this morning.

Yuan Cixian had almost confessed everything to him, but she just skipped over this dream. But he also roughly guessed: she cried like that, and asked him about her old injury as soon as she woke up, and now she was in a hurry to give birth to him, what else could she be dreaming about?

She has seen the impermanence of the world, so she wants to fight for the day and night, everything is faster, and there are fewer regrets.

In the past, she didn't pay attention, so she was reckless, free and easy, but now that she used her mind, she also knew how to care about her heart and look forward to the future.

Lu Shiqing was happy in his heart, but he didn't want her to really stay behind because of this anxiety.

It was as if she had given birth to a pair of children and completed the Lu family. If she encountered death in the future, she would no longer struggle to survive, and just walked away gracefully.

He frowned, took her hand, pressed it to his heart, and asked, "Did you hear that?"

Yuan Cixian looked at him puzzled: "What?"

"As long as it dances for a day, you are in it for a day. As long as you are in it for a day, it dare not stop for a day. None of the bad things in your dreams will happen. We can have children later. "

Yuan Cixian didn't want to be seen through by him at a glance, and under a choke, the hand resting on his heart turned into a fist, and lightly punched him.

Why is she so good at talking all of a sudden, it makes her nose sore, it's so annoying!

She was not convinced that her mind was revealed, she raised her jaw and refused to admit it: "I'm just bored, what's wrong with wanting to have a baby to play with? I have the final say, how dare you not give it?"

When Lu Shiqing was having a night talk with Yuan Cixian at home, the Daming Palace was holding a Dragon Boat Festival. At the time when hundreds of officials gathered, the news of the assassination of the two princes in Qujiang naturally spread all over the place.

Emperor Huining had heard about this long before, and immediately sent eunuchs and imperial physicians to the mansions of Zheng Zhuo and Zheng Ji to treat the wounded, but he did not cancel the banquet at night, intending to take the opportunity to see how the officials responded view of things.

At the banquet, many officials who had witnessed Zheng Zhuo's injury at the Orchid's Restaurant were unable to sit still, and implored the saint to send someone to investigate the matter. The next day when he went to court, a large number of officials went up to play and make their voices heard. Only Lu Shiqing, who was still on her wedding leave, seemed really heartless, and walked around the West Market with Yuan Cixian for a whole day without asking, until she was invited into the palace by the saint at dusk.

When Emperor Huining saw him, he had a headache and said: "I did say that I told you to have a good relationship with the Yuan family, but I didn't want you to be so dishonest! What Cixian wants to buy, you can just ask the servants to buy it. If you don’t have enough money, you can ask me to ask for it, but you have to investigate the case for me! The matter of Cai Siqing has not yet been settled, and Qujiang has another big case. I have one head and two big ones, how about you? , you just stay at home, even quit the Dragon Boat Festival last night, what should I do?"

The old emperor came up with a torrent of bitterness. Lu Shiqing looked apologetic, and took out the speech he had prepared a long time ago: "Your Majesty, calm down, I have indeed been distracted recently, but it's not that I don't care about the court affairs. The two things you said For the case, the minister probably has a countermeasure."

"How to say?" Emperor Huining calmed down a little after hearing the words, "Let's talk about Cai Siqing's incident first."

In order to avoid being exposed, Lu Shiqing should not have directly intervened in Cai He's affairs, so when the Ministry of Criminal Justice uncovered the private salt case, he chose to stay put. Until Emperor Huining took Cai He into custody, because he couldn't make up his mind, he took the initiative to send someone to the door to ask his opinion.

At that time, as soon as he read the conclusive evidence listed by the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he asked the **** to go back and spread the word, saying that according to the situation, Cai He could be directly convicted. Could it be that the sage felt that he was worthy of a great responsibility and was not willing to lose everything because of it? Famous courtier? If this is the case, he can relieve the saint's worries and help Cai He deal with it.

This is what Lu Shiqing told Zheng Zhuo before, once and for all.

If the sage was a wise king, he would naturally have to try his best to prove Cai He's innocence if he wanted to solve this frame-up case. But King Ping came prepared and blocked all the possibilities of overturning the case, and the saint is just a fatuous person who doesn't care about greed or not, guilt or innocence, he just wants to control all the obedient pieces in his hands, then , he turned Cai He into someone useful to the saint, and asked King Ping to hit his father with his fist.

The reason why Emperor Hui Ning originally sought Lu Shiqing's opinion was simply out of suspicion, thinking that there were other secrets hidden in it, but after being misunderstood by him, when he asked back, he felt that it was very reasonable.

Dali Temple is the head of the Judicial Department of Dasan Wednesday. It has a higher status than the Ministry of Punishment, which is reviewing the case. It has already infiltrated many forces of King Ping and the Second Prince. Although Emperor Huining knew it well, because of the complicated situation in the court, it was impossible to get rid of all these people clearly. Therefore, after Jiang Min fell from the horse, he wanted to take Cai He, who was relatively innocent, into his palm, so as to get rid of them. suppress.

The emperor can't do everything he wants. When it comes to appointing talents, he also needs to buy people's hearts. At the beginning, he made an exception to promote Cai He, which was actually considered an act of kindness, but now it is an excellent opportunity: Cai He is in trouble, and his official position may be lost. Used.

So Emperor Huining ordered Lu Shiqing to deal with him on his behalf, and because of this, he was asked to test out several senior officials yesterday. He is eager to know the result now.

Lu Shiqing replied: "Your Majesty was very sorry for Cai Siqing when I heard the words of several Chancellors in the wine shop yesterday. I think that if His Majesty wants to protect him, he should not encounter too much resistance."

Emperor Huining pondered for a moment and asked, "So, in your opinion, what should I do to make it more reasonable?"

"In the Ministry of Criminal Justice, who insisted on making Cai Siqing feel bad, and His Majesty told him to make it even more difficult, isn't it logical?"

With just a few words, the old emperor was pushed out to meet King Ping's blade, and he beat the latter's stake in the Ministry of Punishment with a rake.

Emperor Huining, who was kept in the dark, took it seriously and continued to ask him about the Qujiang assassination case.

Lu Shiqing smiled slightly, and said: "Your Majesty, this case is simpler than Cai Siqing's case. In fact, you don't have to send someone to Qujiang to collect evidence and find out who the murderer is. You think, His Royal Highness was hunted down On the way, the reason why I went to the Orchid Winehouse to take refuge was because I knew that the minister was waiting there to drink, but why did the people who chased him stop because of this?"

Seeing that the pupils of the superior man shrank, he had already been instructed to understand, and he continued: "Because the other party also knows that the minister and the ministers are there, so he dare not go further. Your Majesty will investigate and investigate, and see who knows about yesterday's banquet at the wine shop." Among the people, whoever is more suspicious can solve the case easily."

Lu Shiqing didn't tell the truth. Emperor Huining's heart sank slightly, and he said calmly: "Well, tomorrow morning, you will go to see Erlang and Liulang's injuries for me, and see how they are."

Lu Shiqing was ordered to retreat, and the next day he went to the second prince's mansion first, and then went to see Zheng Zhuo.

Although Zheng Zhuo's injury was not as dangerous as Lu Shiqing's last time, the bad thing was that it was in the heat of the day, and the incision was easily infected, so it was not so easy to recover from the injury.

He burned for two consecutive days, woke up from sleep, and was still a little drowsy when he saw Lu Shiqing. After hearing his explanation of his visit, he turned his head reluctantly, lay on the bed and said hoarsely: "This time, the second brother is unlucky." Yes, on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, I went to Father’s place with him, and happened to meet Wang Zhongshu, and heard about the fact that you had an appointment to drink at a wine shop at noon. Father probably thought of this, so I asked you to compare my second brother’s and me’s. Injuries, see if there are any clues."

Lu Shiqing nodded, thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to hold onto Zheng Ji this time."

In fact, the second prince's vitality has already been exhausted. If Lu Shiqing had the heart, he could push down this hollow tree with a finger, but he has never done so. Instead, he intentionally left this person in the court to maintain the relationship between the three. The balance between the two princes.

If the second prince falls too quickly, Prince Ping's energy will be concentrated on Zheng Zhuo, who will also increase the risk of exposure. Only when the second prince and King Ping check and balance each other, can Zheng Zhuo have enough room to breathe and grow his wings step by step in a stable environment.

But this time, Emperor Huining probably really wanted to be disappointed with the second prince, and decided to kick this son away. A change in the situation between the DPRK and China, and the collapse of the triangular balance, will surely cause a big commotion.

Zheng Zhuo smiled helplessly when he heard the words: "I may have acted too hastily."

Lu Shiqing shook his head: "Soldiers are coming to stop you, you have no other choice." After he got up and was about to leave, he pointed to a small medicine box that he brought when he got down, "I won't bother you, these are the best wound medicines from the Yuan family, I got them from Cixian It’s what you asked for, so you can use it.”

Zheng Zhuo glanced at the eye box, and smiled weakly: "When did you become so generous?"

Lu Shiqing didn't answer, but smiled back at him, Xindao Yuan Cixian's monthly letter should be finished, she seems to be secretly planning something bad recently, he might be a father soon, of course he should be more stable.

Thinking of this, he walked away slowly and briskly, and the hem of his robe fluttering in the wind could not hold back.

Zheng Zhuo watched him go, not knowing what he was happy about, so he woke up and called Chen Zhan to ask: "Since I was in a coma that day, nothing happened in the carriage, right?"

Chen Zhan hesitated and said: "You first talked in your sleep about falling off a rockery when you were a child, and then you mistook the county magistrate for Xue Cairen... do these two count?"

"..." Zheng Zhuo's face twitched, and a Ji Ling almost tore open the wound. He took a breath in pain, then pointed to his nose and said, "Did I really do that?"

Chen Zhan nodded, and said awkwardly: "You still hold the hand of the county magistrate and refuse to let go."

Zheng Zhuo looked down at his palm in embarrassment, and twitched the corner of his mouth.

After seeing the injuries of the two brothers, Lu Shiqing turned around and entered the Daming Palace to report to Emperor Huining.

When he was not at the mansion, Yuan Cixian nestled in the room, bumping heads with Lu Shuangyu, and together they studied a few treasures from the West Market, many of which were locks, gold, silver and jade from the masters of the Western Regions. Made of chains or rings.

Although Lu Shuangyu found it novel, she couldn't help being surprised, and asked with a blink of an eye, "Sister-in-law, who are you trying to deal with by buying so many locks?"

"Of course it's your brother!" Yuan Cixian was fiddling with a handcuff ring, and the truth slipped out of his mouth for a moment, his face froze, and he blushed slightly.

Fortunately, her innocent sister-in-law didn't understand what was going on, and said in a daze, "Brother, did something happen?"

Yuan Cixian smiled "hehe": "No, it's just..." She turned her head quickly, and quickly connected, "That's right, your brother doesn't sleep well, and he keeps kicking me in the middle of the night, so I'll handcuff him , and he will settle down."

"Ah?" Lu Shuangyu said in surprise, "Brother is such a person!"

"Yeah, I didn't expect that either." Yuan Cixian touched her nose embarrassedly after speaking.

Lu Shiqing, I'm sorry to keep your sister's innocent heart.
