Raise an emperor as a villain

Three days after Lu Hengxiu entered the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, it was midnight.

"Lord Lu, Master Lu, get up quickly, the emperor is here to see you." The jailer called out in a low voice, and Lu Hengxiu woke up from his hideous dream.

For some reason, he dreamed of the days when he and Ming Jue were in the East Palace.The winter of that year was really cold, and it snowed heavily one after another, and the entire Eastern Palace was shrouded in a cold and humid environment.

Lu Hengxiu dreamed that he was shivering in the room holding Ming Jue who was burning hot with fever, and he waited and waited but couldn't wait for the imperial doctor, his legs were numb after sitting for a long time.Then the person in his arms turned from hot to cold, the original burning temperature receded, and his whole body became stiff with cold.

Lu Hengxiu reached out to check Ming Jue's breath, and found that he was out of breath.He was shocked and confused, but he couldn't wake up from the nightmare, and after a while he felt as cold as if he had fallen into a hole in the ice.

In a daze, I heard a voice coming from afar, which became more and more clear in my ears.

"Master Lu, Master Lu..."

Lu Hengxiu woke up suddenly with a jolt. He had never been politely called "Master Lu" during his few days in prison.Lu Hengxiu opened his heavy eyelids, and saw the jailer who fell into trouble two days ago standing in front of him with a smile on his face.

"Your Majesty, Master Lu has woken up." The jailer said.

emperor?It was Ming Jue who came.Thinking of this, Lu Hengxiu was about to struggle, but turned over and almost fell to the ground.

He forced himself to stabilize his figure, knelt down and saluted, and said: "I am terrified. Your Majesty, if you bother to spend the night in this cold and filthy place, I deserve death."

Seeing that Lu Hengxiu was wearing thin clothes and kneeling on the ground, Ming Jue couldn't help trembling slightly. He was so distressed that he didn't know what to do. He wanted to help him up but couldn't do it in front of so many people, so he had to hold back.

"You all retreat first, I and Lu Qing have something to say alone." Ming Jue waved his sleeves, and the guards and jailers who followed all retreated.

"Jane, get up quickly." Ming Jue told Lu Hengxiu to get up, and at the same time took off the cloak on his body and covered him.

"I don't dare." Lu Hengxiu pushed back, but Ming Jue firmly tied his cloak around Lu Hengxiu's body.

"Don't struggle, give it to me when I leave later."

"I have stained the emperor's cloak." Lu Hengxiu laughed at himself, he hadn't washed himself since he entered the prison, although the weather was cold and there was no smell, his body was not clean after all.

"I don't dislike you. I will leave later. I asked Thirteen to bring you some thick clothes, including the bedding. This place is so cold, how can you bear it?" He was busy talking with courtiers these days. They circled around, ignoring Lu Hengxiu's treatment in the prison.

"It doesn't matter, although my body is weak, I won't die immediately."

"Bah, bah, bah, don't talk nonsense."

"Okay, okay, the guilty minister dare not talk nonsense, dare to ask the emperor how is the situation outside?" Lu Hengxiu knew that he was doomed this time, but even if he died, he must be a sensible ghost.

Hearing Lu Hengxiu's question about the situation of the court, Ming Jue's expression darkened a bit, and he sighed softly and said, "Oh~ it's all because of my incompetence, I can't beat them all as one."

"It doesn't matter, it's not the emperor's fault. This time, the joint performance is very aggressive and has a huge impact. Moreover, some of the names are not groundless. In the final analysis, it is because I am not careful enough in doing things on weekdays, that I will give people the blame." Lu Hengxiu fell down. Seeing it well, he continued to ask: "It's just how the emperor plans to deal with it?"

"I want to protect you, but the courtiers have no choice but to not retreat an inch. Yesterday I ordered a stick to punish a few people who made a lot of trouble. I didn't expect that the gang of officials were not afraid at all. Today, the trouble is even worse. I have no choice but to temporarily I am sorry for you."

"How exactly?"

"Confiscation of all titles and titles, confiscation of all family property, relegation to a seventh-rank magistrate to serve in Southwest Longchang, and leaving Beijing immediately without delay." Ming Jue said all the consequences in one breath, "Tomorrow I will issue an imperial edict, these contents It will be announced in the morning."

Lu Hengxiu pondered for a moment when he heard the words, and said, "That's good, I finally saved my life."

"I can't bear you." Ming Jue said as he hugged Lu Hengxiu into his arms, "I will remember all those who oppressed me today, and I will find an opportunity to settle them all in the future."

"Your Majesty, please don't think so. Those who participated in my performance this time may not necessarily be the Emperor's loyal ministers, but they have different standpoints. They will look perverted when they see me."

After the two talked for a quarter of an hour, Ming Jue was about to leave, and before leaving, he ordered the cell boss to treat Lu Hengxiu kindly.Seeing that although Lu Hengxiu was sent to a big prison, he still won the Sacred Heart so much, he immediately became terrified and hurriedly agreed.

Sure enough, on the second day, the decree was announced, and Lu Hengxiu came out of the prison directly and got into the carriage. During the period, not to mention going back to the house to pack up, he didn't even have time to change clothes before embarking on the long journey out of Beijing.

段府

"Father, why did you stop me? The emperor made it clear that he was partial to that traitor. Why didn't you let your son continue to fight for reason?"

"You said that the emperor is partial to him, so is it useful for you to argue again? Does the emperor look like he is willing to kill him? Use your brains in everything, and don't be impulsive when things happen." Duan Wenzheng tapped The table taught.

"My son doesn't understand, so let's just let him go like this?" Duan Muqi was not reconciled. His daughter was treated coldly after becoming a queen, which made him hate Lu Hengxiu to the core.

"Who said he was going to let him go?" Duan Wenzheng showed a scheming smile, and then pointed out: "He was originally arrogant and domineering, relying on the protection of the emperor in the capital, besides, he was a high-ranking official in the court earlier, so naturally who You can't easily move a single hair on him.

But now that he is demoted, it is equivalent to sending him to the Southwest. The journey is far away and the mountains are poor and the water is bad. He may not be healthy and die halfway. This is also a common thing. When the emperor asks, he can only blame his life not good. "

Duan Muqi suddenly realized when he heard the words, and praised with a smile: "Father is still wise, my son will arrange it now, and I will tell him to go and never return."

"Stop," Duan Wenzheng called out to his son who was about to leave in a hurry, "Idiot, he encountered an accident as soon as he left the capital, do you think the emperor will not suspect it? At that time, let people pretend to be bandits, and make it look like they are seeking money and killing their lives."

"Yes, yes, my son is stupid."

"Ah~" Duan Wenzheng sighed softly, he has been in court for decades, and survived three dynasties, why is his son so dull.He is so old that he can't even understand such a simple and easy-to-understand principle. If one day he kicks his legs, how can the Duan family be able to withstand the emperor's reckoning?

On the other side, Lu Hengxiu got into the carriage, only to find that there was Ying Shisan in the carriage.And that seemingly dilapidated carriage had quite a lot of space inside, with all the necessary items, and the seats were all covered with mink cushions.

"My lord, you finally came out. Thirteen would be worried to death. If Master Tianshu didn't forbid me, the young ones would have visited the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice at night."

"I made you worry, didn't I take care of myself?" Lu Hengxiu comforted the young man with a smile.

"I know that with the friendship between you and the emperor, the emperor will definitely save you," Ying Shisan also responded with a smile, and then calmly said: "But you have passed the first hurdle when you come out of the prison. This road to the southwest is full of dangers."

"Yes, I will trouble you along the way."

"Don't worry, my lord, the little one will do his best to protect you." Ying Shisan was overwhelmed with emotion, and immediately patted his chest to reassure, lest Lu Hengxiu wouldn't believe it.

"Hurry up!"

"Yes." Ying Shisan replied and jumped out of the car.

"Drive!" With a loud shout, the whip sounded, and the carriage that Lu Hengxiu was riding in slowly drove towards the unknown journey.
