Raising Wolves
Chapter 52
The entire imperial city was not peaceful that night.
Before dawn, Ning Juan had already turned from half-drowsy to complete coma and lost consciousness.
Probably because of the severe pain after the poison, even though he was in a coma, Ning Juan's breathing was not steady.
Lu Qing held his hand, put his arms around the boy who was already taller than himself, and gently followed his back to soothe his restless mood and continuous labor pain.
When Ning Juan's breathing finally calmed down, Lu Qing wanted to get out of bed and change a handkerchief to wipe his sweat.
As soon as he moved, Ning Juan grabbed his sleeves tightly.
Even though he has lost consciousness, His Majesty's domineering possessiveness is still terrifyingly strong, and Lu Qing is not allowed to leave his side.
Lu Qing was stunned for a moment.
He knew that Ning Juan's sense of security had always been low, so he would constantly seek his comfort, wanting to cling to his side, yearning for warmth, and he had already turned into a tall and straight boy, still looking sticky.
Unexpectedly, Gao became like this, and he was uneasy for a moment when he left.
He thought about it for a while and didn't leave again.
Although he knew Duan Lingguang was the one who fell into this place besides him, meeting by chance is different from being with him for many years.
He watched Ning Juan grow up, and Ning Juan was his comfort when he was wandering alone.
It's like he doesn't like to have too much contact with others, but he can tolerate Ning Juan, and he can only tolerate Ning Juan.
At dawn, Lu Qing gently let go of Ning Juan's hand, felt the boy's slight obstruction, and touched his head: "You go to sleep first, I won't leave."
His voice was very gentle, and there was a kind of coaxing gentleness when he spoke in a low voice. Ning Juan seemed to be coaxed, and obediently let Lu Qingze go.
When he walked out of the dormitory, there were still a large number of brocade guards patrolling outside, and there were also hidden guards in the dark watching all directions, guarding outside the dormitory.
Chang Shun sat outside the dormitory, staring and sleeping all night, when he heard footsteps, he raised his head: "Master Lu? Why did you come out?"
Seeing that Chang Shun remembered that his legs were numb because he had slept with his legs all night, he groaned when he got up, and was about to slip and fall, but Lu Qing had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and gave him a hand.
Changshun was inexplicably touched.
Others think that eunuchs are dirty, if Zheng Yao or other ministers are here, they will definitely just watch him fall back coldly, just like these Jin Yiwei nearby, although they are all respectful to him on the surface, but what they think in the bottom of their hearts is not necessarily the case up.
Only Mr. Lu, since the first time he saw him, has never shown any strangeness to him, and has treated him as a normal person from the beginning to the end.
"Did His Majesty give you anything before he fell asleep yesterday?"
Lu Qing led Chang Shun into the bedroom and turned to look at him.
Changshun opened his eyes slightly in surprise: "How do you know? Yes, our family will show you that."
Saying that, Xiaobu ran to the bedroom, found a decree in the dark compartment under the couch, and handed it to Lu Qingze: "This is from your majesty."
Lu Qing opened it and narrowed his eyes half-closed.
"Your Majesty said, if you ask, I will hand over the decree to you. If you don't ask, I don't need to hand it over to you." Chang Shun lowered his head, "Trouble your mind and body, His Majesty doesn't want you to bother."
Lu Qing read it several times and shook his head: "If there is anything to worry about, Your Majesty will trouble you to take care of it."
Chang Shun didn't quite know what was written in the decree. Seeing that Lu Qing was about to leave, he widened his eyes: "Where are you going?"
Lu Qing said: "Don't worry, I won't leave the palace."
He put on the mask, went out of the bedroom, and looked at Xiao Jin who was watching outside: "Xiao Jin, take two people and follow me to Wenyuan Pavilion."
Xiao Jin was stunned for a moment, what was he going to Wenyuan Pavilion for?
He thought that Lu Qing would choose to stay in the palace.
Stay by Ning Juan's side until this matter is over - this is the safest place.
But thinking about what Boss Zheng said, he didn't ask too much: "Yes!"
On the second day of His Majesty's coma, he temporarily suspended the court, and the power seemed to have disappeared and fell back to the cabinet.
Everyone in the world knows that the cabinet is now surnamed Wei.
Ever since the little emperor returned to Beijing, the power that the cabinet has held for many years has been divided back. Xu Ge has been unhappy for a long time. Several elders gathered in Wenyuan Pavilion to discuss matters. Seeing that Feng Ge's face was tense, he had no time to be relieved Satisfied, he heard a communication from outside: "Teacher Lu is here."
Elder Xu Ge immediately frowned in displeasure: "What is he here for?"
In recent years, Lu Qing has been very low-key, probably to cooperate with Ning Juan. Unless there is an urgent call, he never steps in, and concentrates on his half-dead sick child.
When Lu Qing walked in unhurriedly, the faces of the elders were all different.
Elder Xu Ge sized him up and sneered, "Master Lu, why don't you take good care of His Majesty in Qianqing Palace, what are you doing here?"
Lu Qing glanced at him, didn't say much, opened the decree, and said in a cool voice, "I will act according to your Majesty's decree. If you have no objections, from today onwards, all decisions will be made by me."
The decree was opened, and the first purpose was a red seal.
Seeing the words on it clearly, even Wei Herong raised his eyebrows.
It is indeed Ning Juan's handwriting - after many years of practice, His Majesty's handwriting has grown from climbing to standing, which can be regarded as pleasing to the eye.
It was signed a long time ago, at least before they went south. There are only a few words, and the meaning is simple: If Ning Juan is temporarily unable to take power for any reason, Tai Fu Lu Qing will be the regent.
Lu Qing calmly accepted all kinds of eyes from a group of people, hot and cold, wishing that he would die of illness on the spot.
Although he has no interest in being an official in power, but now that Ning Juan has to sleep for a few days, and the guards are staring at him, he must at least help Ning Juan guard some of the power he has finally won.
Xu Ge was more than sixty years old, he was a courtier of three generations, and he was the oldest one present here. Even Emperor Chong'an would respect him a little bit more when he was not in a daze.
So he was not convinced that Ning Juan believed in Lu Qingze.
Seeing the words on it closely, Elder Xu Ge's expression darkened immediately: "What if I have any objections?"
Lu Qing glanced lightly, and his voice was different from the coldness in the past: "I don't respect the emperor's order, I don't respect the emperor, the cold wind in the prison, Xu Ge is old, and I probably don't want to experience it."
Standing straight in front of the veterans, the young man stood with a straight back, without any timidity, unlike the low-key silence of the past, showing his edge faintly, the meaning in his words was obvious, and he was merciless.
The others were overwhelmed, and realized that Lu Qing was not bluffing, so they all fell silent.
No matter how reluctant, this is His Majesty's decree, blatant disobedience, but it gave Lu Qing a reason to deal with them.
Compared with the reluctance of other guards, Wei Herong thought more.
It forced Lu Qing to come forward. It seems that the situation of the little emperor is not good.
According to the news from the Imperial Hospital yesterday, when Lu Qing entered the dormitory yesterday, the little emperor's behavior did not seem to be fake.
So, what about temporarily delegating power to Lu Qing.
If Ning Juan fell asleep like that for a long time, or died, who would care about an emperor who would never wake up again?
Besides, can Lu Qing really take over this power?
Wei Herong smiled slightly: "Your Majesty has an order, and the ministers should abide by it, and assist Lu Taifu in governing the state affairs."
"Then," Lu Qing met his eyes, and bent his lips, "Please sit back, and please report today's memorabilia."
Seeing Lu Qing calm down the guards who had been restless since yesterday, Elder Feng Ge, who had been silent all this time, heaved a sigh of relief.
Since Wei Herong became the chief assistant, except for him, three of the other four elders are guards, and the remaining one is vacillating and rarely speaks.
It is not easy for him to hold his heels firmly.
Now Lu Qing can join in, which is naturally the best.
The memorials handled by the cabinet are very complicated, ranging from major military and political affairs to trivial matters.
Lu Qing received a memorial, which was sent by the Ministry of Rites, asking about the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.
Seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, His Majesty is in a coma due to poisoning, Honglu Temple and the Ministry of Rites are in a dilemma for a while, so please ask whether the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet will still be held as scheduled.
Lu Qing drew a pen across it.
No.
The national treasury is empty, and the amount brought from Jiangyou is not enough to fit between the teeth. Besides, Jiangyou has a lot of waste to do, and will need to allocate funds to help in the future.
Ning Juan lay down, and he probably wanted to lie down for the Mid-Autumn Festival, which was also his wish - after all, the little emperor didn't like this kind of excitement with gongs and drums, and he reluctantly attended the banquet every year.
The next one is an urgent report from Mobei.
Wu Guogong Shi Rongfeng led the army to repel Oirat and asked the court to allocate food.
Lu Qing wrote Zhunzi.
It has only been a few years since the old general Shi passed away in the original book. He doesn't know when Shi Rongfeng plotted against him on the battlefield, but obviously the sooner Shi Rongfeng returns to Beijing to meet Lin Xi, the sooner he can give Ning Juan support, the better.
With the support of the Fifth Army Battalion, Wei Herong was already very troublesome. If he was forced into a hurry and the Fifth Army Battalion invaded the imperial city, Jinyiwei's manpower would not be enough.
Holding military power is the last word.
I have to write a book and send it to Mobei with the food distribution team.
The next one was another letter from the Tatars.
The letter stated that Ulihan, the third prince of Tatar, wanted to see Tianyan during the autumn hunting this year, and implored Daqi to allow him to come in person.
Lu Qing raised his brows slightly: "This third prince..."
He was the one who brought Xiaoxue to Ning Juan's birthday banquet last time.
Wei Herong said leisurely: "Since the Tatar Khan led the army to attack and injured his leg seven years ago, the third prince of Tatar, Ulihan, has gradually come to power."
Feng Ge rubbed his beard: "When Wu Lihan was young, he came to Daqi with the Tatar Khan, and the late emperor specially bestowed on the Han the name 'Ning Xiuyong', in order to wish to cultivate Yongning between the two races. Since he took power, , the Tatars seldom invaded, and resumed paying tribute every year, with a respectful attitude, much more courteous than his ignorant father."
Lu Qing twitched his lips when he heard what Feng Ge said.
This Urihan was not someone to be friendly with.
In the original book, after the death of General Shi, the shadow that had been pressing on his head for decades dissipated, and the Tatars immediately counterattacked wildly, and allied with the Wala to attack in the south. The group of foreigners were expelled back to their hometown, but because of this battle, they were further hurt.
And the person who took the lead was this Urihan.
In the future, Wu Lihan will inevitably become Ning Juan's serious worry.
He stared at the report for a while, and wrote the word "quasi".
Immediately afterward, all over the world came to play, and Jiangyou's memorials were also rushed, and they were delivered today.
Fan Xingyan wrote in the memorandum that the floods under the right eye of the river have receded, the epidemic has been eliminated, and the people are rebuilding their homes.
Lu Qing was dealing with it, when suddenly another person came outside, from Beizhen Fusi, Lu Qing was quite familiar with him, he was a Zhenfu envoy who often followed Zheng Yao.
The eunuch entered Wenyuan Pavilion, clasped his hands in a salute, and handed a secret letter to Lu Qingze without looking away: "Master Lu, Xu Yuan has recruited."
coming.
The secret letter was still stained with blood, and the pungent iron smell could be vaguely smelled.
Lu Qing opened the secret letter, and after reading it, his jaw line tensed for a moment, then he folded the secret letter without hesitation, and regained his calm demeanor: "I'm leaving for a while, and the elders will draft the ticket first. .”
His subtle changes were fleeting, but Wei Herong caught them clearly, and said slowly: "Since Xu Yuan made the move, the cabinet should also know about it. Now Taifu Lu is in power, but he is in charge of His Majesty's affairs." Hiding and hiding, could it be..."
He stared at Lu Qing and unconsciously squeezed the white fingertips of the letter, and his smile seemed to have a deep meaning: "Is there any secret, I can't wait to know?"
A big hat of heart-punishment was buckled down, openly and secretly, and he almost pointed at Lu Qingze's nose, questioning whether he relied on this decree to manipulate Xu Yuan to poison him behind the scenes, colluding with Zheng Yao, so as to take over the power , to satisfy selfish desires.
Lu Qing was caught in a dilemma by these words, his beautiful jaw line was tense, he looked over coldly, looked at him for a while, and took a picture of the secret letter on the table: "Wei Shoufu, please."
Is younger after all.
Wei Herong leisurely opened the secret letter, and after reading it, a few traces of astonishment appeared in his eyes.
He knew all about the affairs in the palace, so he was also very clear about Xu Yuan's judgment on this matter.
More than 30 years ago, the court judged that because of the ineffective treatment of the imperial concubine, the women's family members were not allowed to enter the court, and all the men were beheaded. This incident actually caused a small disturbance at that time, and many people were quite dissatisfied.
After Emperor Chong'an ascended the throne, he sent people to execute all the female family members of the Xu family, intending to erase the influence of this matter on his father and tarnish the royal family's reputation.
Unexpectedly, Xu Yuanjuan's youngest son escaped.
Then it all makes sense.
Hibernating for many years, he turned Xu into Xu, and won the trust of the little emperor with the help of Jiangyou's epidemic. He waited for an opportunity to poison the emperor and avenge his family.
A miracle doctor... It would be a pity if he died in prison.
Most of the doubts in Wei Herong's heart disappeared, and he put down the secret letter calmly: "It seems that I wrongly blamed Mrs. Lu, Wei was worried about His Majesty, and made a slip of the tongue in a moment of anxiety, please don't blame me."
"How dare you blame Shoufu," Lu Qing sarcastically flashed across his eyes hidden under the shadow of the mask, "Let's stop here today."
Lu Qing left in a huff, and everyone present circulated the secret letter with different expressions.
Is there really a solution to the poison given by a genius doctor whose whole family died because of the royal family and who hated the royal family so much?
Is the little emperor still awake?
After leaving Wenyuan Pavilion, Lu Qing got into the sedan chair waiting outside, the corners of his mouth twitching.
His acting skills just now, no matter how you say it, he deserves a [-].
In order to complete the trick, after leaving Wenyuan Pavilion, Lu Qing went to Fusi of Beizhen.
After Zheng Yao received the news from the palace in the morning, he acted in cooperation with Lu Qingze. He was walking back and forth in the Zhenfu Department. When he heard the announcement that Lu Qingze was coming, he hurried forward to greet him personally: "Master Lu, what's the matter?"
Lu Qing got off the sedan chair and nodded slightly at him: "The fish is hooked."
Zheng Yao let out the same breath he kept saying: "That's good. This old dog Wei usually looks ostentatious, but he is actually extremely cautious. It is really not easy for him to dispel his doubts."
"Where's Dr. Xu?" Lu Qing looked around.
Zheng Yao hesitated for a moment: "I'm tied up in prison...you don't want to meet me, do you?"
Lu Qing nodded.
Zheng Yao hesitated even more: "No way, the prison is full of evil spirits, in case I bump into you..."
Your Majesty will skin him!
His words were already quite reserved for him.
The evil spirit collides and does not collide. In addition, when the eunuch party was in chaos and chaos, Lu Qing crawled out of the imperial prison after a narrow escape.
Seeing that he is thin and frail, and his bones are seriously ill, won't he be afraid of causing nightmare memories if he enters this kind of place again?
Lu Qing's expression remained unchanged: "Go in."
Zheng Yao had no choice but to lead him to prison.
The moment he walked into the prison from the outside, he seemed to have entered another world. The heat of the scorching heat disappeared, and the cold breath rushed towards his face, and the coldness penetrated his bones.
Lu Qing was in a daze for a moment, and suddenly a few broken fragments appeared in his consciousness.
When he first came to this world, his consciousness became clear for the first time, but he was not in the Lu residence, but in the prison.
The smell of blood mixed with the cold and sticky moisture, the dampness and pain penetrating into the bones.
When he opened his eyes, the original body had been dead for a long time.
That body was at the end of the mountain, and he couldn't survive it for too long, maybe one day, maybe two days, the time in the dark prison is unknown, if Wei Herong's people hadn't cleared the king's side in time, I'm afraid he would be tortured soon after passing through died.
When he was rescued, his consciousness was blurred, and when he woke up, he was in Lu's mansion, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Chen Xiaodao's teary and red eyes.
The few days in the imperial prison were extremely painful, and his consciousness automatically blocked that memory. Later, he always thought that he opened his eyes under the call of Chen Xiaodao.
But subconsciously, he still remembered the horror of the prison, and when he arrived at this ghostly place, his memory was awakened.
To some extent, Wei Herong still saved his life back then.
Lu Qing closed his eyes, waved away those unpleasant and cold memories, and walked in steadily.
Zheng Yao observed Lu Qingze carefully, and saw that he was fine, so he let it go.
Xu Shu was imprisoned in the deepest prison, and Lu Qing was really shocked when he saw him even if he was ready to "act the real part of the fake show".
He was wearing a prison uniform, and his body was covered in countless bloodstains, bloody, and had a huge visual impact, making Lu Qing's eyelids twitch when he saw it.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Xu Shu raised his eyelids, saw that it was Lu Qingze, and snorted: "The patient still comes to this kind of place, I think you want to torment me again."
Lu Qing opened his lips: "...the one who looks more like a patient now should not be me."
Xu Shu looked at him again.
Then he jumped up suddenly, shook his sleeves, put his hands behind his back, and said proudly with blood on his face, "I, as a medical practitioner, naturally know where to hurt, where not to hurt, and what looks the most bluffing after hurting, put you away." That look of worry is an insult to me."
Lu Qing could naturally see that it was not as simple as Xu Shu said.
He was silent for a long time, and asked in a low voice: "Doctor Xu, why do you..."
"If you have to say it, it can be regarded as repayment." Xu Shu stopped jumping, and sat down slowly, "Your Majesty handed over the last relic of my junior sister to me."
Is it the plum blossom hairpin?
Lu Qing never expected that Ning Juan would hand this over to Xu Shu.
In the original book, the plum blossom hairpin is the only consolation in the heart of the tyrant.
Lu Qing was silent for a long time, and said in a low voice: "Doctor Xu, you need to be cautious when dealing with Wei Herong. Have you thought about how to deal with him?"
Xu Shu frowned: "Since he will be my 'savior', he is naturally extremely grateful, what's wrong?"
Lu Qing shook his head: "Wrong, Wei Herong might not reveal his identity to you at first, but if you face Wei Herong with such an attitude, it will arouse his suspicion, so you only need to use your usual Treat it with an attitude.”
"What attitude?"
Zheng Yao folded his hands and leaned against the side, and cut in after hearing the sound: "Just your old man's face of 'I don't even give face when the king of heaven is here'."
Xu Shu: "...Understood, your mouth is white, get out quickly, lest His Majesty come to find me in trouble again."
Lu Qing felt that he was spreading rumors.
After leaving the Imperial Prison, Lu Qing stayed in Fusi of Beizhen for a while, and even had dinner with Zheng Yao. He didn't leave the official office until it got dark, and returned to Qianqing Palace.
When they arrived, the imperial physicians had just come out of the bedroom.
Seeing Lu Qingze, Chen Ke came forward and asked, "I heard that Master Lu went to the Imperial Prison to interrogate Xu Yuan, did you find anything?"
Lu Qing lowered his eyes, and sighed heavily as if weary: "Xu Yuan refused to open his mouth." After a pause, a sharp cold light flashed in his eyes, "Even if Xu Yuan doesn't hand over the antidote, the power of the ether hospital , it will not take long to find out the antidote formula, murdering the emperor is a crime that cannot be punished."
Chen Ke lowered his head and hid the expression in his eyes: "Hey...you are really confused. Don't worry, Mr. Lu. The Tai Hospital is doing everything it can, and His Majesty will be safe and sound."
Lu Qing bowed to him, stopped talking, and watched Chen Ke and others return to the side hall, where they continued to discuss the antidote.
Of course the hospital will do its best.
Even if Wei Herong wants to order Chen Ke to do something, he can't do it. After all, Ning Juan's identity is there. More than a dozen imperial doctors consult with each other, discuss the prescription together, and review it repeatedly. .
Lu Qing withdrew his gaze and walked towards the bedroom three minutes faster.
Changshun stayed by the imperial bed all day long, and when he saw Lu Qingze finally came back, he resolutely handed him the medicine bowl in his hand.
Lu Qing reached out to take it, a little puzzled: "Where's the medicine in the daytime?"
Chang Shun chuckled: "According to Dr. Xu's instructions, Your Majesty only needs to drink this medicine once a day. During the day, the imperial physicians are always there. In case they find out, what we bring here is their prescribed medicine. Watch out, it's all down."
Otherwise, if you have to drink medicine during the day, and Lu Qing is not here, who else can pour it in for His Majesty?
Lu Qing bent his eyes: "You are clever, go and prepare some light food, I will feed your majesty medicine, and fill your stomach when your majesty wakes up."
Changshun complied and went down obediently.
Afraid that Ning Juan would not be able to feed him lying flat, Lu Qing held him in his arms according to yesterday's posture, and fed him the medicine.
Probably yesterday's medicine took effect, and Ning Juan woke up faster today than yesterday.
Not long after Changshun delivered the food, the boy's long eyelashes moved, and before he opened his eyes, he called out hoarsely: "Teacher."
Hearing Lu Qingze's response, Ning Juan smiled and opened his eyes: "This feels really good."
Lu Qing patted his forehead: "I'm sick, how can I get better?"
Ning Juan looked straight at him, his face was a little pale, and his tone was natural: "Isn't it great to wake up every day and see the teacher when I open my eyes?"
You can see what you want and respond to what you want.
It could not be better.
Ning Juan's eyes lit up slightly when he spoke, and he stared at Lu Qingze for a moment, with a serious tone.
It made Lu Qing feel a little subtle.
Isn't it a bit too much for this kid to cling to him like this?
But Ning Juan quickly put away the bright eyes, smelled the aroma, tried to sit up by himself, and blinked: "Teacher, I'm so hungry."
The subtlety rising in Lu Qing's heart was interrupted, he paused, and shook his head when he turned to get the bowl.
He watched Ning Juan grow up. He was his student and his younger brother. The two of them had lived together for many years. Ning Juan had a weak sense of security. Isn't it normal to be clingy to him?
He was almost wondering where he was going.
Ning Juan was still poisoned, and he had no strength in his body—it wasn't that he didn't have it, but he didn't have it in front of Lu Qingze.
His Majesty the Emperor is like a chick, Lu Qing feeds him a bite, and he takes a bite. After swallowing, he glances at Lu Qingze's clothes: "Teacher, have you ever gone out?"
While waiting for Ning Juan to wake up, Lu Qing actually went to take a bath and changed back to his pajamas, but Ning Juan could tell, so it was not surprising.
Then he talked about going to Wenyuan Pavilion with the decree, and going to Fusi in Beizhen.
Ning Juan sighed: "The teacher is still going, I don't want the teacher to bother you."
Really don't want to?
Lu Qing fed him another spoonful of soup, and asked casually, "I heard from Doctor Xu, did you give him the white jade plum hairpin?"
Facing Lu Qingze, Ning Juan was very calm: "That hairpin is useless to me, and I gave it to Xu Shu. One will fulfill my mother's wishes during her lifetime, and the other will make Xu Shu willing to do things for me. It's a good deal. "
Lu Qing's eyes lighted slightly, thoughtful: "So you plotted against Xu Shu?"
"Is this a scheme?" Ning Juan tilted his head with innocent eyes.
Lu Qing stirred the bird's nest and white fungus soup in the bowl, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Whether it is true or not, it depends on His Majesty, not on me. But don't tell me the details of this plan, and let me show a natural expression in front of Chen Ke." A flaw in the expression, I think it should be counted?"
Ning Juan froze instantly.
Lu Qing looked at his stiff look, and comforted him: "I don't care what Guoguo's expression is, I just want to clear up the confusion."
He didn't think about it at all, and didn't have any doubts until he heard what Xu Shu said.
Yesterday there was Chen Ke inside, and Wei Herong outside. Ning Juan needed someone who didn't know him to deceive the two at the same time, just to make the plan smoother, so he didn't tell him anything.
Some things were beyond his expectations, but they were completely expected. After all, when Ning Juan made a decision, he never specifically informed anyone.
Ning Juan's reaction was much bigger than he thought, he grabbed his wrist suddenly, and his breathing was a little short: "Teacher, don't be angry, I just, just..."
Just what, but he couldn't say it.
Lu Qing patted his hand reassuringly: "I said I don't care, don't worry."
Ning Juan's face seemed to be a little pale again, and he held onto his hand, but couldn't say anything for a while.
The window was open, and the night was dark again. Perhaps it was because of the rain yesterday, and there was no moon today. A gust of wind blew in from the outside, suddenly blew out the candles, and the room suddenly fell into darkness.
Suddenly, Lu Qing wanted to pull Ning Juan's hand away to light the candle again, but Ning Juan seemed to be surprised by his action, and pulled it with all his strength.
Fortunately, Lu Qing was on guard. Ning Juan, who was poisoned, was not as strong as before. Lu Qing was just dragged and staggered to sit on the bed, with his arms tightly held by the young man.
Lu Qing already regretted asking Ning Juan that question.
As long as you have the answer in your heart, ask what you want to do.
It's just that the most trusted student took advantage of it without knowing it. I feel a little untrustworthy, and I feel a little bored.
Ning Juan breathed heavily: "Teacher, I didn't do it on purpose."
Lu Qing said "Yes" with a pleasant face: "The teacher knows."
"……You do not know."
There was a layer of cold sweat on Ning Juan's forehead. He didn't know whether it was pain or darkness, which made his breathing more chaotic, and his voice lowered: "Teacher, I don't need that hairpin anymore, it's because of...you."
The last sound was very small, and it penetrated into my ears, but it felt like a thunderous sensation.
Lu Qing came back to his senses, only to find that his hand was tightly pressed on the boy's heart.
He could clearly feel that Ning Juan's heart was beating very fast, every time, the powerful heartbeat seemed to vibrate his palm, which was scorching hot.
Lu Qingze's fingertips curled up involuntarily.
In the darkness, the young man's eyes tightly locked on him still had a strong sense of presence, which was hard to ignore, as if eagerly waiting for some kind of response.
Lu Qing lowered his eyes, pulled out his hand firmly and forcefully, and said in a faint voice: "It's getting dark, I can't see things clearly, and I can't speak clearly. I'm going to light the lamp."
The author has something to say:
Lu Qingze, who sensed something was wrong: I declined it.
Guoguo: Cardiac Arrest.jpg Heartbroken.jpg
Before dawn, Ning Juan had already turned from half-drowsy to complete coma and lost consciousness.
Probably because of the severe pain after the poison, even though he was in a coma, Ning Juan's breathing was not steady.
Lu Qing held his hand, put his arms around the boy who was already taller than himself, and gently followed his back to soothe his restless mood and continuous labor pain.
When Ning Juan's breathing finally calmed down, Lu Qing wanted to get out of bed and change a handkerchief to wipe his sweat.
As soon as he moved, Ning Juan grabbed his sleeves tightly.
Even though he has lost consciousness, His Majesty's domineering possessiveness is still terrifyingly strong, and Lu Qing is not allowed to leave his side.
Lu Qing was stunned for a moment.
He knew that Ning Juan's sense of security had always been low, so he would constantly seek his comfort, wanting to cling to his side, yearning for warmth, and he had already turned into a tall and straight boy, still looking sticky.
Unexpectedly, Gao became like this, and he was uneasy for a moment when he left.
He thought about it for a while and didn't leave again.
Although he knew Duan Lingguang was the one who fell into this place besides him, meeting by chance is different from being with him for many years.
He watched Ning Juan grow up, and Ning Juan was his comfort when he was wandering alone.
It's like he doesn't like to have too much contact with others, but he can tolerate Ning Juan, and he can only tolerate Ning Juan.
At dawn, Lu Qing gently let go of Ning Juan's hand, felt the boy's slight obstruction, and touched his head: "You go to sleep first, I won't leave."
His voice was very gentle, and there was a kind of coaxing gentleness when he spoke in a low voice. Ning Juan seemed to be coaxed, and obediently let Lu Qingze go.
When he walked out of the dormitory, there were still a large number of brocade guards patrolling outside, and there were also hidden guards in the dark watching all directions, guarding outside the dormitory.
Chang Shun sat outside the dormitory, staring and sleeping all night, when he heard footsteps, he raised his head: "Master Lu? Why did you come out?"
Seeing that Chang Shun remembered that his legs were numb because he had slept with his legs all night, he groaned when he got up, and was about to slip and fall, but Lu Qing had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and gave him a hand.
Changshun was inexplicably touched.
Others think that eunuchs are dirty, if Zheng Yao or other ministers are here, they will definitely just watch him fall back coldly, just like these Jin Yiwei nearby, although they are all respectful to him on the surface, but what they think in the bottom of their hearts is not necessarily the case up.
Only Mr. Lu, since the first time he saw him, has never shown any strangeness to him, and has treated him as a normal person from the beginning to the end.
"Did His Majesty give you anything before he fell asleep yesterday?"
Lu Qing led Chang Shun into the bedroom and turned to look at him.
Changshun opened his eyes slightly in surprise: "How do you know? Yes, our family will show you that."
Saying that, Xiaobu ran to the bedroom, found a decree in the dark compartment under the couch, and handed it to Lu Qingze: "This is from your majesty."
Lu Qing opened it and narrowed his eyes half-closed.
"Your Majesty said, if you ask, I will hand over the decree to you. If you don't ask, I don't need to hand it over to you." Chang Shun lowered his head, "Trouble your mind and body, His Majesty doesn't want you to bother."
Lu Qing read it several times and shook his head: "If there is anything to worry about, Your Majesty will trouble you to take care of it."
Chang Shun didn't quite know what was written in the decree. Seeing that Lu Qing was about to leave, he widened his eyes: "Where are you going?"
Lu Qing said: "Don't worry, I won't leave the palace."
He put on the mask, went out of the bedroom, and looked at Xiao Jin who was watching outside: "Xiao Jin, take two people and follow me to Wenyuan Pavilion."
Xiao Jin was stunned for a moment, what was he going to Wenyuan Pavilion for?
He thought that Lu Qing would choose to stay in the palace.
Stay by Ning Juan's side until this matter is over - this is the safest place.
But thinking about what Boss Zheng said, he didn't ask too much: "Yes!"
On the second day of His Majesty's coma, he temporarily suspended the court, and the power seemed to have disappeared and fell back to the cabinet.
Everyone in the world knows that the cabinet is now surnamed Wei.
Ever since the little emperor returned to Beijing, the power that the cabinet has held for many years has been divided back. Xu Ge has been unhappy for a long time. Several elders gathered in Wenyuan Pavilion to discuss matters. Seeing that Feng Ge's face was tense, he had no time to be relieved Satisfied, he heard a communication from outside: "Teacher Lu is here."
Elder Xu Ge immediately frowned in displeasure: "What is he here for?"
In recent years, Lu Qing has been very low-key, probably to cooperate with Ning Juan. Unless there is an urgent call, he never steps in, and concentrates on his half-dead sick child.
When Lu Qing walked in unhurriedly, the faces of the elders were all different.
Elder Xu Ge sized him up and sneered, "Master Lu, why don't you take good care of His Majesty in Qianqing Palace, what are you doing here?"
Lu Qing glanced at him, didn't say much, opened the decree, and said in a cool voice, "I will act according to your Majesty's decree. If you have no objections, from today onwards, all decisions will be made by me."
The decree was opened, and the first purpose was a red seal.
Seeing the words on it clearly, even Wei Herong raised his eyebrows.
It is indeed Ning Juan's handwriting - after many years of practice, His Majesty's handwriting has grown from climbing to standing, which can be regarded as pleasing to the eye.
It was signed a long time ago, at least before they went south. There are only a few words, and the meaning is simple: If Ning Juan is temporarily unable to take power for any reason, Tai Fu Lu Qing will be the regent.
Lu Qing calmly accepted all kinds of eyes from a group of people, hot and cold, wishing that he would die of illness on the spot.
Although he has no interest in being an official in power, but now that Ning Juan has to sleep for a few days, and the guards are staring at him, he must at least help Ning Juan guard some of the power he has finally won.
Xu Ge was more than sixty years old, he was a courtier of three generations, and he was the oldest one present here. Even Emperor Chong'an would respect him a little bit more when he was not in a daze.
So he was not convinced that Ning Juan believed in Lu Qingze.
Seeing the words on it closely, Elder Xu Ge's expression darkened immediately: "What if I have any objections?"
Lu Qing glanced lightly, and his voice was different from the coldness in the past: "I don't respect the emperor's order, I don't respect the emperor, the cold wind in the prison, Xu Ge is old, and I probably don't want to experience it."
Standing straight in front of the veterans, the young man stood with a straight back, without any timidity, unlike the low-key silence of the past, showing his edge faintly, the meaning in his words was obvious, and he was merciless.
The others were overwhelmed, and realized that Lu Qing was not bluffing, so they all fell silent.
No matter how reluctant, this is His Majesty's decree, blatant disobedience, but it gave Lu Qing a reason to deal with them.
Compared with the reluctance of other guards, Wei Herong thought more.
It forced Lu Qing to come forward. It seems that the situation of the little emperor is not good.
According to the news from the Imperial Hospital yesterday, when Lu Qing entered the dormitory yesterday, the little emperor's behavior did not seem to be fake.
So, what about temporarily delegating power to Lu Qing.
If Ning Juan fell asleep like that for a long time, or died, who would care about an emperor who would never wake up again?
Besides, can Lu Qing really take over this power?
Wei Herong smiled slightly: "Your Majesty has an order, and the ministers should abide by it, and assist Lu Taifu in governing the state affairs."
"Then," Lu Qing met his eyes, and bent his lips, "Please sit back, and please report today's memorabilia."
Seeing Lu Qing calm down the guards who had been restless since yesterday, Elder Feng Ge, who had been silent all this time, heaved a sigh of relief.
Since Wei Herong became the chief assistant, except for him, three of the other four elders are guards, and the remaining one is vacillating and rarely speaks.
It is not easy for him to hold his heels firmly.
Now Lu Qing can join in, which is naturally the best.
The memorials handled by the cabinet are very complicated, ranging from major military and political affairs to trivial matters.
Lu Qing received a memorial, which was sent by the Ministry of Rites, asking about the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.
Seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, His Majesty is in a coma due to poisoning, Honglu Temple and the Ministry of Rites are in a dilemma for a while, so please ask whether the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet will still be held as scheduled.
Lu Qing drew a pen across it.
No.
The national treasury is empty, and the amount brought from Jiangyou is not enough to fit between the teeth. Besides, Jiangyou has a lot of waste to do, and will need to allocate funds to help in the future.
Ning Juan lay down, and he probably wanted to lie down for the Mid-Autumn Festival, which was also his wish - after all, the little emperor didn't like this kind of excitement with gongs and drums, and he reluctantly attended the banquet every year.
The next one is an urgent report from Mobei.
Wu Guogong Shi Rongfeng led the army to repel Oirat and asked the court to allocate food.
Lu Qing wrote Zhunzi.
It has only been a few years since the old general Shi passed away in the original book. He doesn't know when Shi Rongfeng plotted against him on the battlefield, but obviously the sooner Shi Rongfeng returns to Beijing to meet Lin Xi, the sooner he can give Ning Juan support, the better.
With the support of the Fifth Army Battalion, Wei Herong was already very troublesome. If he was forced into a hurry and the Fifth Army Battalion invaded the imperial city, Jinyiwei's manpower would not be enough.
Holding military power is the last word.
I have to write a book and send it to Mobei with the food distribution team.
The next one was another letter from the Tatars.
The letter stated that Ulihan, the third prince of Tatar, wanted to see Tianyan during the autumn hunting this year, and implored Daqi to allow him to come in person.
Lu Qing raised his brows slightly: "This third prince..."
He was the one who brought Xiaoxue to Ning Juan's birthday banquet last time.
Wei Herong said leisurely: "Since the Tatar Khan led the army to attack and injured his leg seven years ago, the third prince of Tatar, Ulihan, has gradually come to power."
Feng Ge rubbed his beard: "When Wu Lihan was young, he came to Daqi with the Tatar Khan, and the late emperor specially bestowed on the Han the name 'Ning Xiuyong', in order to wish to cultivate Yongning between the two races. Since he took power, , the Tatars seldom invaded, and resumed paying tribute every year, with a respectful attitude, much more courteous than his ignorant father."
Lu Qing twitched his lips when he heard what Feng Ge said.
This Urihan was not someone to be friendly with.
In the original book, after the death of General Shi, the shadow that had been pressing on his head for decades dissipated, and the Tatars immediately counterattacked wildly, and allied with the Wala to attack in the south. The group of foreigners were expelled back to their hometown, but because of this battle, they were further hurt.
And the person who took the lead was this Urihan.
In the future, Wu Lihan will inevitably become Ning Juan's serious worry.
He stared at the report for a while, and wrote the word "quasi".
Immediately afterward, all over the world came to play, and Jiangyou's memorials were also rushed, and they were delivered today.
Fan Xingyan wrote in the memorandum that the floods under the right eye of the river have receded, the epidemic has been eliminated, and the people are rebuilding their homes.
Lu Qing was dealing with it, when suddenly another person came outside, from Beizhen Fusi, Lu Qing was quite familiar with him, he was a Zhenfu envoy who often followed Zheng Yao.
The eunuch entered Wenyuan Pavilion, clasped his hands in a salute, and handed a secret letter to Lu Qingze without looking away: "Master Lu, Xu Yuan has recruited."
coming.
The secret letter was still stained with blood, and the pungent iron smell could be vaguely smelled.
Lu Qing opened the secret letter, and after reading it, his jaw line tensed for a moment, then he folded the secret letter without hesitation, and regained his calm demeanor: "I'm leaving for a while, and the elders will draft the ticket first. .”
His subtle changes were fleeting, but Wei Herong caught them clearly, and said slowly: "Since Xu Yuan made the move, the cabinet should also know about it. Now Taifu Lu is in power, but he is in charge of His Majesty's affairs." Hiding and hiding, could it be..."
He stared at Lu Qing and unconsciously squeezed the white fingertips of the letter, and his smile seemed to have a deep meaning: "Is there any secret, I can't wait to know?"
A big hat of heart-punishment was buckled down, openly and secretly, and he almost pointed at Lu Qingze's nose, questioning whether he relied on this decree to manipulate Xu Yuan to poison him behind the scenes, colluding with Zheng Yao, so as to take over the power , to satisfy selfish desires.
Lu Qing was caught in a dilemma by these words, his beautiful jaw line was tense, he looked over coldly, looked at him for a while, and took a picture of the secret letter on the table: "Wei Shoufu, please."
Is younger after all.
Wei Herong leisurely opened the secret letter, and after reading it, a few traces of astonishment appeared in his eyes.
He knew all about the affairs in the palace, so he was also very clear about Xu Yuan's judgment on this matter.
More than 30 years ago, the court judged that because of the ineffective treatment of the imperial concubine, the women's family members were not allowed to enter the court, and all the men were beheaded. This incident actually caused a small disturbance at that time, and many people were quite dissatisfied.
After Emperor Chong'an ascended the throne, he sent people to execute all the female family members of the Xu family, intending to erase the influence of this matter on his father and tarnish the royal family's reputation.
Unexpectedly, Xu Yuanjuan's youngest son escaped.
Then it all makes sense.
Hibernating for many years, he turned Xu into Xu, and won the trust of the little emperor with the help of Jiangyou's epidemic. He waited for an opportunity to poison the emperor and avenge his family.
A miracle doctor... It would be a pity if he died in prison.
Most of the doubts in Wei Herong's heart disappeared, and he put down the secret letter calmly: "It seems that I wrongly blamed Mrs. Lu, Wei was worried about His Majesty, and made a slip of the tongue in a moment of anxiety, please don't blame me."
"How dare you blame Shoufu," Lu Qing sarcastically flashed across his eyes hidden under the shadow of the mask, "Let's stop here today."
Lu Qing left in a huff, and everyone present circulated the secret letter with different expressions.
Is there really a solution to the poison given by a genius doctor whose whole family died because of the royal family and who hated the royal family so much?
Is the little emperor still awake?
After leaving Wenyuan Pavilion, Lu Qing got into the sedan chair waiting outside, the corners of his mouth twitching.
His acting skills just now, no matter how you say it, he deserves a [-].
In order to complete the trick, after leaving Wenyuan Pavilion, Lu Qing went to Fusi of Beizhen.
After Zheng Yao received the news from the palace in the morning, he acted in cooperation with Lu Qingze. He was walking back and forth in the Zhenfu Department. When he heard the announcement that Lu Qingze was coming, he hurried forward to greet him personally: "Master Lu, what's the matter?"
Lu Qing got off the sedan chair and nodded slightly at him: "The fish is hooked."
Zheng Yao let out the same breath he kept saying: "That's good. This old dog Wei usually looks ostentatious, but he is actually extremely cautious. It is really not easy for him to dispel his doubts."
"Where's Dr. Xu?" Lu Qing looked around.
Zheng Yao hesitated for a moment: "I'm tied up in prison...you don't want to meet me, do you?"
Lu Qing nodded.
Zheng Yao hesitated even more: "No way, the prison is full of evil spirits, in case I bump into you..."
Your Majesty will skin him!
His words were already quite reserved for him.
The evil spirit collides and does not collide. In addition, when the eunuch party was in chaos and chaos, Lu Qing crawled out of the imperial prison after a narrow escape.
Seeing that he is thin and frail, and his bones are seriously ill, won't he be afraid of causing nightmare memories if he enters this kind of place again?
Lu Qing's expression remained unchanged: "Go in."
Zheng Yao had no choice but to lead him to prison.
The moment he walked into the prison from the outside, he seemed to have entered another world. The heat of the scorching heat disappeared, and the cold breath rushed towards his face, and the coldness penetrated his bones.
Lu Qing was in a daze for a moment, and suddenly a few broken fragments appeared in his consciousness.
When he first came to this world, his consciousness became clear for the first time, but he was not in the Lu residence, but in the prison.
The smell of blood mixed with the cold and sticky moisture, the dampness and pain penetrating into the bones.
When he opened his eyes, the original body had been dead for a long time.
That body was at the end of the mountain, and he couldn't survive it for too long, maybe one day, maybe two days, the time in the dark prison is unknown, if Wei Herong's people hadn't cleared the king's side in time, I'm afraid he would be tortured soon after passing through died.
When he was rescued, his consciousness was blurred, and when he woke up, he was in Lu's mansion, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Chen Xiaodao's teary and red eyes.
The few days in the imperial prison were extremely painful, and his consciousness automatically blocked that memory. Later, he always thought that he opened his eyes under the call of Chen Xiaodao.
But subconsciously, he still remembered the horror of the prison, and when he arrived at this ghostly place, his memory was awakened.
To some extent, Wei Herong still saved his life back then.
Lu Qing closed his eyes, waved away those unpleasant and cold memories, and walked in steadily.
Zheng Yao observed Lu Qingze carefully, and saw that he was fine, so he let it go.
Xu Shu was imprisoned in the deepest prison, and Lu Qing was really shocked when he saw him even if he was ready to "act the real part of the fake show".
He was wearing a prison uniform, and his body was covered in countless bloodstains, bloody, and had a huge visual impact, making Lu Qing's eyelids twitch when he saw it.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Xu Shu raised his eyelids, saw that it was Lu Qingze, and snorted: "The patient still comes to this kind of place, I think you want to torment me again."
Lu Qing opened his lips: "...the one who looks more like a patient now should not be me."
Xu Shu looked at him again.
Then he jumped up suddenly, shook his sleeves, put his hands behind his back, and said proudly with blood on his face, "I, as a medical practitioner, naturally know where to hurt, where not to hurt, and what looks the most bluffing after hurting, put you away." That look of worry is an insult to me."
Lu Qing could naturally see that it was not as simple as Xu Shu said.
He was silent for a long time, and asked in a low voice: "Doctor Xu, why do you..."
"If you have to say it, it can be regarded as repayment." Xu Shu stopped jumping, and sat down slowly, "Your Majesty handed over the last relic of my junior sister to me."
Is it the plum blossom hairpin?
Lu Qing never expected that Ning Juan would hand this over to Xu Shu.
In the original book, the plum blossom hairpin is the only consolation in the heart of the tyrant.
Lu Qing was silent for a long time, and said in a low voice: "Doctor Xu, you need to be cautious when dealing with Wei Herong. Have you thought about how to deal with him?"
Xu Shu frowned: "Since he will be my 'savior', he is naturally extremely grateful, what's wrong?"
Lu Qing shook his head: "Wrong, Wei Herong might not reveal his identity to you at first, but if you face Wei Herong with such an attitude, it will arouse his suspicion, so you only need to use your usual Treat it with an attitude.”
"What attitude?"
Zheng Yao folded his hands and leaned against the side, and cut in after hearing the sound: "Just your old man's face of 'I don't even give face when the king of heaven is here'."
Xu Shu: "...Understood, your mouth is white, get out quickly, lest His Majesty come to find me in trouble again."
Lu Qing felt that he was spreading rumors.
After leaving the Imperial Prison, Lu Qing stayed in Fusi of Beizhen for a while, and even had dinner with Zheng Yao. He didn't leave the official office until it got dark, and returned to Qianqing Palace.
When they arrived, the imperial physicians had just come out of the bedroom.
Seeing Lu Qingze, Chen Ke came forward and asked, "I heard that Master Lu went to the Imperial Prison to interrogate Xu Yuan, did you find anything?"
Lu Qing lowered his eyes, and sighed heavily as if weary: "Xu Yuan refused to open his mouth." After a pause, a sharp cold light flashed in his eyes, "Even if Xu Yuan doesn't hand over the antidote, the power of the ether hospital , it will not take long to find out the antidote formula, murdering the emperor is a crime that cannot be punished."
Chen Ke lowered his head and hid the expression in his eyes: "Hey...you are really confused. Don't worry, Mr. Lu. The Tai Hospital is doing everything it can, and His Majesty will be safe and sound."
Lu Qing bowed to him, stopped talking, and watched Chen Ke and others return to the side hall, where they continued to discuss the antidote.
Of course the hospital will do its best.
Even if Wei Herong wants to order Chen Ke to do something, he can't do it. After all, Ning Juan's identity is there. More than a dozen imperial doctors consult with each other, discuss the prescription together, and review it repeatedly. .
Lu Qing withdrew his gaze and walked towards the bedroom three minutes faster.
Changshun stayed by the imperial bed all day long, and when he saw Lu Qingze finally came back, he resolutely handed him the medicine bowl in his hand.
Lu Qing reached out to take it, a little puzzled: "Where's the medicine in the daytime?"
Chang Shun chuckled: "According to Dr. Xu's instructions, Your Majesty only needs to drink this medicine once a day. During the day, the imperial physicians are always there. In case they find out, what we bring here is their prescribed medicine. Watch out, it's all down."
Otherwise, if you have to drink medicine during the day, and Lu Qing is not here, who else can pour it in for His Majesty?
Lu Qing bent his eyes: "You are clever, go and prepare some light food, I will feed your majesty medicine, and fill your stomach when your majesty wakes up."
Changshun complied and went down obediently.
Afraid that Ning Juan would not be able to feed him lying flat, Lu Qing held him in his arms according to yesterday's posture, and fed him the medicine.
Probably yesterday's medicine took effect, and Ning Juan woke up faster today than yesterday.
Not long after Changshun delivered the food, the boy's long eyelashes moved, and before he opened his eyes, he called out hoarsely: "Teacher."
Hearing Lu Qingze's response, Ning Juan smiled and opened his eyes: "This feels really good."
Lu Qing patted his forehead: "I'm sick, how can I get better?"
Ning Juan looked straight at him, his face was a little pale, and his tone was natural: "Isn't it great to wake up every day and see the teacher when I open my eyes?"
You can see what you want and respond to what you want.
It could not be better.
Ning Juan's eyes lit up slightly when he spoke, and he stared at Lu Qingze for a moment, with a serious tone.
It made Lu Qing feel a little subtle.
Isn't it a bit too much for this kid to cling to him like this?
But Ning Juan quickly put away the bright eyes, smelled the aroma, tried to sit up by himself, and blinked: "Teacher, I'm so hungry."
The subtlety rising in Lu Qing's heart was interrupted, he paused, and shook his head when he turned to get the bowl.
He watched Ning Juan grow up. He was his student and his younger brother. The two of them had lived together for many years. Ning Juan had a weak sense of security. Isn't it normal to be clingy to him?
He was almost wondering where he was going.
Ning Juan was still poisoned, and he had no strength in his body—it wasn't that he didn't have it, but he didn't have it in front of Lu Qingze.
His Majesty the Emperor is like a chick, Lu Qing feeds him a bite, and he takes a bite. After swallowing, he glances at Lu Qingze's clothes: "Teacher, have you ever gone out?"
While waiting for Ning Juan to wake up, Lu Qing actually went to take a bath and changed back to his pajamas, but Ning Juan could tell, so it was not surprising.
Then he talked about going to Wenyuan Pavilion with the decree, and going to Fusi in Beizhen.
Ning Juan sighed: "The teacher is still going, I don't want the teacher to bother you."
Really don't want to?
Lu Qing fed him another spoonful of soup, and asked casually, "I heard from Doctor Xu, did you give him the white jade plum hairpin?"
Facing Lu Qingze, Ning Juan was very calm: "That hairpin is useless to me, and I gave it to Xu Shu. One will fulfill my mother's wishes during her lifetime, and the other will make Xu Shu willing to do things for me. It's a good deal. "
Lu Qing's eyes lighted slightly, thoughtful: "So you plotted against Xu Shu?"
"Is this a scheme?" Ning Juan tilted his head with innocent eyes.
Lu Qing stirred the bird's nest and white fungus soup in the bowl, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Whether it is true or not, it depends on His Majesty, not on me. But don't tell me the details of this plan, and let me show a natural expression in front of Chen Ke." A flaw in the expression, I think it should be counted?"
Ning Juan froze instantly.
Lu Qing looked at his stiff look, and comforted him: "I don't care what Guoguo's expression is, I just want to clear up the confusion."
He didn't think about it at all, and didn't have any doubts until he heard what Xu Shu said.
Yesterday there was Chen Ke inside, and Wei Herong outside. Ning Juan needed someone who didn't know him to deceive the two at the same time, just to make the plan smoother, so he didn't tell him anything.
Some things were beyond his expectations, but they were completely expected. After all, when Ning Juan made a decision, he never specifically informed anyone.
Ning Juan's reaction was much bigger than he thought, he grabbed his wrist suddenly, and his breathing was a little short: "Teacher, don't be angry, I just, just..."
Just what, but he couldn't say it.
Lu Qing patted his hand reassuringly: "I said I don't care, don't worry."
Ning Juan's face seemed to be a little pale again, and he held onto his hand, but couldn't say anything for a while.
The window was open, and the night was dark again. Perhaps it was because of the rain yesterday, and there was no moon today. A gust of wind blew in from the outside, suddenly blew out the candles, and the room suddenly fell into darkness.
Suddenly, Lu Qing wanted to pull Ning Juan's hand away to light the candle again, but Ning Juan seemed to be surprised by his action, and pulled it with all his strength.
Fortunately, Lu Qing was on guard. Ning Juan, who was poisoned, was not as strong as before. Lu Qing was just dragged and staggered to sit on the bed, with his arms tightly held by the young man.
Lu Qing already regretted asking Ning Juan that question.
As long as you have the answer in your heart, ask what you want to do.
It's just that the most trusted student took advantage of it without knowing it. I feel a little untrustworthy, and I feel a little bored.
Ning Juan breathed heavily: "Teacher, I didn't do it on purpose."
Lu Qing said "Yes" with a pleasant face: "The teacher knows."
"……You do not know."
There was a layer of cold sweat on Ning Juan's forehead. He didn't know whether it was pain or darkness, which made his breathing more chaotic, and his voice lowered: "Teacher, I don't need that hairpin anymore, it's because of...you."
The last sound was very small, and it penetrated into my ears, but it felt like a thunderous sensation.
Lu Qing came back to his senses, only to find that his hand was tightly pressed on the boy's heart.
He could clearly feel that Ning Juan's heart was beating very fast, every time, the powerful heartbeat seemed to vibrate his palm, which was scorching hot.
Lu Qingze's fingertips curled up involuntarily.
In the darkness, the young man's eyes tightly locked on him still had a strong sense of presence, which was hard to ignore, as if eagerly waiting for some kind of response.
Lu Qing lowered his eyes, pulled out his hand firmly and forcefully, and said in a faint voice: "It's getting dark, I can't see things clearly, and I can't speak clearly. I'm going to light the lamp."
The author has something to say:
Lu Qingze, who sensed something was wrong: I declined it.
