Chapter 57 surrender

Lu Qi glanced at the man kneeling respectfully in front of him, and said in a calm voice, "You just came to see me so grandly, aren't you afraid that others will gossip?"

He didn't ask Jiang Zhuliu to get up, and the latter just kept the same posture peacefully. He raised his head slightly, and his eyes fell on Lu Yong's face with a little fear, "If you come secretly, I'm afraid it will come true."

The air around was quiet for a short moment, Lu Qi withdrew his gaze, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, he was still sitting sideways, rubbing his fingertips against his knuckles, his eyes were dark and blurry.

This appearance fell into Jiang Zhuliu's eyes, and he couldn't help but lower his head again, with a little shame in his eyes. He claimed to have read countless people, but this one in front of him was rare and difficult to understand.

I don't understand, I don't understand...

The matter in Wangdu was handled in a hurry, the imperial court sent people to investigate, and everything pointed to Zhang Zhengqing. The next few days were all calm, but he had a guess somewhere, maybe some things had already been completely cleared. big change.

He first received Cheng San's message, knowing that someone in the Jiangnan Palace had interfered with Wangdu's affairs, and after thinking twice, he agreed.

He and the Jiangnan Palace had a lot of rifts in the early years, but it was backlogged. Now that he has an opportunity, he can't bear it.

Therefore, he immediately sent a letter to the central government, and soon got the approval. The imperial edict with the imperial seal was sent to him personally, and there was a token along with it.

This thing is a hot potato. He put it on his body and waited for two full days before waiting for the person who came to take it. If he read it correctly that night, it was a dark and windy night, and there was such a face under the cloak.

Magnificent beauty, unforgettable to see.

He panicked at first, but after a while, he finally figured out the reason.

He sent troops to help Cheng Shangqing, but behind this, there must be only King Jiangbei behind the Cheng family, but the relationship between King Jiangbei and King Yan is complicated and tight.

But the king of Jiangbei is not here now as the beam. Either he was sent away or he has other plans.

But the person who is likely to be the instigator can take himself out of the matter in this way, ignoring the whole audience with an attitude that has nothing to do with himself.

Lu Yong removed himself from this matter, so that everyone did not notice his existence.

At this moment, Jiang Zhuliu should praise him for his cleverness.

The Jiangbei king's matriarchal clan is in the south of the Yangtze River, one south and one north, like two fierce tigers sleeping soundly on the side of the emperor's bed, pulling one hair can move the whole body.

If the emperor dared to let the King of Jiangbei accompany the prince to Jiangnan, he was absolutely sure, and this confidence was likely to be His Royal Highness King Su who was accompanying him.

It is said that His Royal Highness King Qi is not to be favored, and he was still a person to treat crimes before, but now that Emperor Chengde handed over the token through his hands, I am afraid that the conspiracy between the two was prepared before the incident happened in the south of the Yangtze River.

It was premeditated.

This incident has passed through his hands, so he has completely dragged him into the water. Originally, he wanted to relieve his anger, but now he will be angry at whatever he thinks!

After Lu Yong finished the matter in private, he got involved again.

But now, the person in front of him still looks calm and breezy when he sees him, but it's hard to see through.

But things are calm now, Jiangbei King and His Highness the Crown Prince don't know where they are, and what kind of conspiracy is going to be brewed by the secret layout, it's impossible to guess.

I'm afraid that the people in the world will tell him to fool him. They thought he was a prince who is idle and has no sacred heart, but now he can conspire with the emperor.

Difficult to understand, difficult to understand.

Now, this is forcing him to make a choice!

The Jiangnan Palace had a grudge against the deceased Lu Yong's mother, and it would be fine if the two had an accident and didn't make up for it.

As for the Cheng family, he knew Cheng San's temperament very well, and if he wanted him to be a knife peacefully, it would be better to kill him.

There are three pillars in the south of the Yangtze River. If he wants to win over, he will be left in the end...

Jiang Zhuliu didn't know what the emperor had in mind, and he didn't know what the token of that night would be used for, but if his previous conjecture was correct, then His Royal Highness King Su must be a smooth existence in the future.

After this series of conjectures came out, I saw that he couldn't calm down for a long time, so he came.

With a sincere heart, I voted for Lu Qi.

The sun and the moon are shining to show sincerity.

Unaware of the endless thoughts in his heart, Lu Qi smiled, and the arc of his eyes showed the joy at the moment, "So Governor Jiang came here in an open manner, is there something wrong?"

Jiang Zhuliu lowered his head by three points, expressing his intention of coming, "Zhuliu people speak lightly, but if King Su is useful in the future, it will be up to him to send him."

One sentence, but by dispatch, clearly shows the intention of coming.

Lu Yong's gaze on the top of his hair dimmed, time passed silently for a moment, he smiled slightly, stood up and helped Jiang Zhuliu up, "Governor Jiang is serious, this time Wangdu I have to thank you more."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and Jiang Zhuliu sighed softly in his heart, feeling that he was on a thief ship that couldn't be found after a search!

After the two chatted for a few words, Jiang Zhuliu left. He passed Ruan Dao, walked a few steps, and then turned his head to look at the man with a straight back and a long knife on his waist.

A sense of familiarity jumped into my heart, and a deep meaning flashed in my eyes.

As soon as Ruan Dao entered the door, he said in Lu Qi's ear: "Master Cheng sent people to find the prince and the king of Jiangbei, accompanied by a few refugees who were subdued."

Lu Yu was besieged by refugees, and a catastrophe was imminent, so Fu Chengci continued southward in a hurry.

But all this is not so important to him now.

Lu Qi paused as he touched his knuckles, his eyes flickered slightly, and he just asked softly, "Are you back?"

"Well," Ruan Dao couldn't figure out what was going on in his heart, and his voice faded a bit: "The person who sent the decree is coming soon, probably one on both sides."

The decree from above was not for Lu Yu, but for him. I'm afraid that this good show that will be shown on the stage will kill everyone with laughter.

Lu Yong felt a little more expectation in his heart.

In the afternoon, the courtyard was visibly lively, even the sound of hurrying footsteps was heard by Lu Qi.

He woke up from a light sleep, and he was still a little confused, and he saw the figure of Ruan Dao standing with his back fighting.

The noisy voices outside made Lu Qi's heart drop a bit. He knew it was Fu Cheng's resignation and Lu Yu's return.

As for the front hall, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was going to stay here, the entire huge courtyard was just about to be renovated, the whole place was cleaned spotlessly, even the hall with floor tiles was bright and eye-catching.

Fu Chengci and Lu Yu rode one by one, and dismounted in front of the courtyard one after the other. Cheng Shangqing saluted Lu Yu, and Fu Chengci nodded to Cheng Shangqing with a calm expression.

The relationship between the two is uncle and nephew, but their status is different, so naturally they cannot be compared together.

Lu Yu was full of wind and dust along the way, and the accompanying guards were dead or injured, and he was stopped by a roundabout halfway, with a gloomy breath in his chest, his face was cold and gloomy, and he had long since lost the image of the former prince of a great country demeanor.

After Zhang Zhengqing was imprisoned, the local officials became a newly promoted one. With the lessons learned from the past, this new adult can be said to be a lot more cautious.

It is said that there are no less than two digits of people around Guan who is the staff officer. There are advantages and disadvantages to having a large number of people.

He rushed to the gate of the mansion in a carriage. He was thinking of looking for the third master of the Cheng family, but he didn't expect to see the prince and Jiangbei king, two big Buddhas here.

Weeping with joy at the moment.

As if seeing the reborn parents, he ran over with his clothes in disregard of etiquette, and made a big salute.

"Your official, Li Qu, have met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the King of Jiangbei!"

After all, Third Master Cheng was just a member of the Cheng family, he had no power in the government and the public, so he was immediately forgotten.

Lu Yu looked a bit embarrassed now, and naturally there was no good color on his face. He said coldly, "As a local official, is there something wrong with being in such a hurry?"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Li Qu's heart gave a 'thump', the prince didn't look good at the first meeting, and he couldn't help but secretly complained.

He got the news from the central government that today a coordinating official came down to proclaim the decree, and now people are about to enter the city, and they have named them to proclaim it here.

Li Qu only knew that the Cheng family lived here, but he didn't expect to see the prince here again, so he immediately thought that the decree was for the prince.

"There is an official coming to announce the decree, and he made it clear here. I am afraid that I will miss your lord's business, so I am a little anxious, and I hope the prince will forgive me."

The staff officer was not in vain, and his words were mellow and skillful. He didn't explain who the decree was for, he only named his lord. Fu Chengci subconsciously glanced at Lu Yu, and the latter also turned to look at him.

They all saw the word coincidence in each other's eyes.

It's really a coincidence that they came back here on the front foot, and the imperial edict came on the back foot.

But Lu Yu was ready very quickly, it was just to receive orders, since he entered the East Palace, the orders he received were big and small, this time it was the same as usual.

His complexion recovered quickly, and Li Qu felt dizzy, the change was too fast.

It just so happened that everyone was here now, and there was no delay in notifying back and forth. Li Qu was also waiting here, and not long after, a group of carriages and horses could be seen faintly from the intersection in front.

I think it's the person who came down to declare the decree.

In more distant places, imperial decrees are usually brought by the emperor's personal servants to recite, and it is inconvenient for the servants to travel so far.

The leader, Lu Yu, recognized him and was also one of the leaders of the imperial guards. Unlike the people who were sent to his side, one of them was in charge of the inside and the other was outside.

When the guards saw them, they first greeted them one by one, then scanned the crowd and asked, "Is everyone here?"

No one spoke, Li Qu bit the bullet and went forward, "At..."

The guard shook his head hesitantly, "There is still one person missing."

Lu Yu frowned, dissatisfied with his wasting time here, and said coldly: "This palace is here, who else is missing?"

He intuitively felt that this time was no different from the past, and he spoke with the confidence and arrogance of the Tian family.

The imperial guard quickly lowered his head and spoke respectfully, "If you go back to His Royal Highness, there is still a lack of someone here to accept the order."

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

The recipient?

If there is news from the palace, apart from His Royal Highness, there is only King Jiangbei. Now that both of them are here, who else is missing?

Cheng Shangqing suddenly thought of a person, his heart sank, and he was about to speak.

A lazy voice came from behind everyone.

"I'm still missing, Xiao Tongwei's imperial edict is here to receive it!"
