014 The Second Highness is Trapped in the Buried Mound
Under the leadership of Tao Lingzhi, everyone has successfully changed the reception banquet to a gossip banquet.
Everyone automatically formed a circle and quietly listened to Gu Changqing telling the big and small things about Linzhou. Occasionally, they would applaud when they heard the emotions.
Until they heard about Lu Liunian's explosion of the embankment, everyone looked at Lu Fengzi tacitly. Although they didn't say anything, the malice in their eyes still made Lu Fengzi feel ashamed.
Lu Fengzi understood that he and Lu Liunian were rivals, and they were almost fighting each other in the court or in life.
But in the eyes of the outside world, they are still brothers.
Lu Liunian's handling of this matter was very cheap, which really hurt the royal family's face.
The key is that this happened for so long, except for some people at the core, most people don’t know it.
This shows that the emperor suppressed this matter.
This is a bit too much.
The court kept distributing money to the people to provide disaster relief, but Lu Liunian blew up the dam because of his own selfish desires. Fortunately, there were no casualties. If anyone really died because of this, it would be a serious sin.
Lu Fengzi knew about this, but when he saw that his father suppressed the matter, he didn't make any statement. However, he didn't expect that Gu Changqing would tell him in public today.
At this moment, everyone looked at him together, which made him feel a little embarrassed.
Lu Fengzi cleared his throat with some embarrassment and explained: "This is indeed what my second brother did. He...he couldn't bear to see Changqing doing well, so he went to make trouble." Speaking of this, he bowed to Gu Changqing and said: "At this point, I also want to apologize to Brother Gu."
Gu Changqing immediately returned the salute, "Your Highness the Crown Prince is too worried. This matter has nothing to do with Your Highness. How can you apologize?"
Chen Yuqi also agreed and said, "I really don't know what the emperor is thinking. Why do so many children like a playboy?"
Lu Zhian, who was drinking tea, stopped doing it, "Don't belittle the playboy, he is unethical, it has nothing to do with the playboy."
"Yes, he is not moral, and he is still lacking in great virtue." Tao Lingzhi followed suit.
Lu Fengzi only felt that his ears were starting to get fever.
"Your Highness." The secret guard entered the door with a somewhat anxious expression.
"What's the matter?" Lu Fengzi did not let everyone avoid it.
At this time, the people who appeared here were his arms, while others were those he wanted to win over.
This is the time to show off your style, so how can there be any mistakes?
After pondering for a while, the secret guard glanced at Gu Changqing and whispered: "I just saw that the Second Highness and Liu Yunsheng were also here, right in the private room on the other end."
Gu Changqing naturally noticed the person's concern for him, raised his eyebrows and looked over, and the other party immediately lowered his eyes.
"I just saw Liu Yunsheng taking over and was...stuck in the pit."
The room suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked stunned.
But Gu Changqing raised his heart, why do you think something is wrong?
"Who did it? Where is the second prince now?" Lu Fengzi also noticed something strange, "If you have anything, just say it."
After the secret guard breathed a deep breath, he said without any breath: "Look at the murderer who was wearing men's clothes, he looked like he was from the Chu family... the eldest lady."
Everyone held their breath again, and several eyes shot at Gu Changqing.
Gu Changqing only felt his head buzzing.
"The Second Highness has just learned about Liu Yunsheng's experience. He sent someone to fish him out and then sent him back to the Liu family, while the Second Highness himself returned to the palace. However, according to the observation of his subordinates, Liu Yunsheng did not see the murderer's face. The Second Highness only said that he sent someone to investigate carefully, and it seemed that nothing was discovered."
Lu Fengzi also felt his head buzzing. If he knew that this would involve the eldest lady of the Chu family, he would never let the secret guards explain it clearly here.
But it was too late now, and everyone looked at Gu Changqing with a complicated look. Even if it was himself, he couldn't help but look over secretly.
The eldest lady of the Chu family was really fierce. She took advantage of the toilet and even stuffed the person into the pit.
Even if no one dies, this incident will leave a shadow on Liu Yunsheng's heart for the rest of his life. I am afraid that he will not dare to go to the thatched cottage easily in the future.
"That... I suddenly remembered that my mother asked me to go to Feng'an Palace later to discuss something, so I... take a step first." Lu Fengzi glanced at Gu Changqing's slightly red ears, and hurriedly lowered his head and walked out.
As soon as he left like this, everyone else was "involved" and left in the blink of an eye.
Gu Changqing was the only one left in the huge room. He glanced at the mess on the table and recalled what the secret guard said just now, and felt that something was wrong.
When he was in Linzhou, there was no great grudge between Chu Yu and Liu Yunsheng. Now that he can deal with him like this, I must have known that the old lady was humiliated, so I took my anger on others.
If this is true, then Lu Liunian's situation will be the same danger.
Gu Changqing didn't dare to think too much, so he got up and walked out.
On the bustling street, a luxurious carriage drove towards the palace.
Lu Liunian kept frowning, and from time to time he sniffed the smell on his body, and subconsciously felt nauseous.
Who did that idiot Liu Yunsheng provoke? He actually pushed him into the pit.
Just thinking about the scene I saw at that time, Lu Liunian felt disgusted.
It would be better not to see that idiot again in a short period of time, it’s really a waste.
He was ruined by his good mood.
Lu Liunian was very irritable, so he simply closed his eyes and took a nap.
He also drank a lot tonight. He was not feeling anything when he was irritated just now. Now that he has stabilized, he is really sleepy and falls asleep in a daze when he leans against the cushion.
I don’t know how long he slept, but he felt a little chilled. When he struggled to open his eyes, he was instantly awakened by the scene in front of him.
At this time, he was still on the carriage.
Under the moonlight, the place where you can see is desolate, as if a crow flew past the sky. When he looked carefully, it turned out to be a mass grave outside the city!
Lu Liunian suddenly woke up and was also scared.
The carriage was gone for a long time, and under the gloomy and terrifying environment, he felt trembling.
"Which bastard did this? Get out of this for Your Highness!" Lu Liunian was very scared, but he also knew that he was lying on something else.
The coachman looks ordinary, but in fact he is a guard in the palace, so his martial arts are naturally not weak.
It is conceivable that the guards would have died long ago if the other party could bring him to this place quietly.
Thinking of Liu Yunsheng's experience, no matter how stupid he is, he knows that someone is deliberately targeting him.
It was quiet around, without any sound.
Lu Liunian's little heart, which had just been surging, gradually became colder. He believed in his intuition and knew that the person who brought him here was nearby.
"Who are you? Are you my identity?" Lu Liunian's voice was filled with a hint of crying. He was really scared.
"Identity? Do you know my identity?" A cold and strange voice sounded from the night sky. Lu Liunian felt his whole body tightening and he collapsed on the ground, his face even more pale as scared as paper.
"Who are you, who are you-"
