Chapter 477 Luo Tingshan is still alive
Zhu Mingqing's heart dropped into his throat again, but he quickly reacted.
Best friends for life?
"Are you serious?"
It won’t be an overreaction, right?
Luo Fu nodded: "I swear, it will never happen again... mmm..."
After struggling to tear off her third brother's hand, she angrily said, "What are you doing!"
Luo Xiao patted her on the back: "Don't say anything careless, understand?"
If this gets out, how can I live my life?
Listen, you dare to say something like lifelong friends.
Don't think he can't hear the hidden meaning.
Luo Fu pouted: "I'm not talking nonsense!"
Luo Huai also came back to his senses and coughed twice. "Little sister, do you know how long a lifetime is? No one knows what will happen in the future. Didn't you think Liu Lang would never change before, but you just ignored him for a few days?"
Luo Fu was suddenly speechless.
Luo Tingshan couldn't help but look at Zhu Mingqing with a meaningful look. Let's see how this will end now.
Zhu Mingqing touched his nose and muttered, "It's not impossible. After all, our family has everything we need. In life, happiness is the most important thing, isn't it?"
"Mother!" Luo Huai and Luo Xiao looked at her disapprovingly.
Luo Tingshan also touched her with his hand under the table, indicating that the children were all there and she should pay attention.
Zhu Mingqing chuckled and changed the subject directly: "Alright, let's not talk about it for now. Xiaofu, since you two have decided to be friends, then spend some time together. As for the future, we'll talk later!"
Luo Fu was unwilling, but she knew that this was the only way today.
She whispered, "But I like all three of them."
Upon hearing this, Luo Huai and Luo Xiao wanted to kick Qian Yingfan and the other two out of the house immediately.
…
Time passed slowly, and with the increase in the favorability of the Immortal Mansion after its fifth restoration, Zhu Mingqing's income also increased.
She directly used most of it to make weapons.
In this regard, Luo Tingshan only felt that he did seem to be a bit of a gigolo.
There is no shortage of money, but we definitely cannot compare with the other party.
It was also the first time that Jiang Cheng realized the financial resources of his current wife.
The wives now take care of most of the food and drink for the brothers in the army, and Jiang Cheng always feels uneasy about this.
Although he had learned from Tan Guangyi that the lady did not intend to harm them, she must have her reasons after all.
Zhu Mingqing was not unaware of this.
But we can't let her go around shouting that she is no longer the original Zhu Mingqing.
Luo Tingshan also noticed it, and he didn't know what he talked about with Jiang Cheng, but when they met again, Jiang Cheng's spirits became even higher.
When seeing Zhu Mingqing, he would also bow respectfully.
On this day, Zhu Mingqing and Luo Tingshan were discussing something when Jiang Cheng hurried in.
"Master, the capital has received news that you are still alive!"
Capital city.
Imperial study.
Emperor Jiancheng was furious and swept the memorial off the imperial desk. Ink splattered everywhere, and the sound of clattering filled the entire room.
The palace maids and eunuchs were so frightened that they all fell to their knees.
Cao Sipei was also trembling with fear and dared not make a sound.
"Immediately summon Pei Shangling, Liang Zhongling, and Duke Xu to the palace!"
It was lunchtime, and the three of them quickly dressed and got on the carriage to go to the palace, all wondering what had happened.
Especially when he heard that it was the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict, the emperor was in a very bad mood.
The three of them met at the palace gate and tried to find out if the other knew.
Until I entered the imperial study, I still had no idea what was going on.
The messy imperial study had already been cleaned up and all irrelevant personnel had evacuated.
"Your Majesty, long live your Majesty!"
The three of them saluted respectfully in unison.
Emperor Jiancheng remained silent, looking at them with a cold gaze that made the three of them feel like thorns in their backs.
The air became increasingly quiet, and just when the three old men were about to collapse, they were called up.
Especially Liang Zhongling, who was already in poor health, almost stumbled and fell to the ground. Fortunately, Duke Xu next to him acted quickly.
The three of them are against each other in the court, why did Your Majesty summon them at the same time?
"Do you know that General Zhengyuan Luo Tingshan is still alive?"
Emperor Jiancheng didn't waste any time and gave everyone a scare as soon as he came up.
"What?"
"How is that possible?"
"Where did the news come from?"
The three of them looked up at the same time, shocked.
Emperor Jiancheng stared at them coldly, and only after making sure that the three of them did not know the truth did he let them sit down.
"No matter where the news came from, it has been confirmed to be true. I called you here today just to ask for your opinions!"
Pei Shangling didn't say anything, but his heart was already in turmoil.
I’m afraid the Luo family won’t let this go!
The first thing Liang Zhongling thought of was that the disappearance of his children and grandchildren must be related to the Luo family.
It was all his fault for underestimating the enemy. If he had known earlier, he would have done as his grandson wished. Even if he had to bear the reprimand from the emperor, he would have wiped them out completely.
But it's too late to say anything now.
Duke Xu, on the other hand, showed no change on the surface, but he had already begun to feel uneasy in his heart.
He took over most of the Luo family's army.
If the news that Luo Tingshan is still alive gets out, the morale of the army will definitely be unstable!
"Speak!" Emperor Jiancheng shouted angrily, "Why are you all silent now? Pei Shangling, you go first!"
Why!
No one would believe that the Luo family's affairs have nothing to do with Your Majesty.
Looking at His Majesty's expression now, it's obvious that he doesn't want to let the Luo family go!
Pei Shangling sighed inwardly and could only bite the bullet and say, "Your Majesty, since General Luo is still alive, why not send someone to the capital to inquire about what exactly happened in Jiaoshan back then?"
Emperor Jiancheng's face suddenly turned ugly.
"Pei Shangling, do you think I have wronged the Luo family?"
"I dare not!"
Pei Shangling immediately knelt down, lowered his head and said nothing.
"Your Majesty, I believe that no matter what the reason, the death of 50,000 soldiers in Jiaoshan is an indisputable fact, and Luo Tingshan bears the main responsibility!" Liang Zhongling certainly did not want to let the Luo family go. The best way was to bring people to the capital.
This is their territory.
"I second Lord Pei's proposal. We need to bring the Luo family back to the capital. Then the truth will be revealed!"
Even though he and Pei Shangling said the same thing on the surface, Liang Zhongling implicitly expressed that only by keeping people by your side can you control them.
Emperor Jiancheng said nothing, his eyes fell on Duke Xu.
Duke Xu had more things in mind. If the Luo family really came, they would be friends, not enemies, to the eldest prince!
Even if there really is a conflict, the Luo family will first target the Liang family.
Thinking of this, Duke Xu felt relieved.
"I second the two lords' proposal!"
Emperor Jiancheng gradually wavered. He originally wanted to stab the man to death directly, but after thinking about it, he realized that it would be quite difficult.
The emperor is far away and it will be hard to find him if he hides at that time.
This time it was purely because the third brother's men were cautious. Tan Guangyi was arrested, and I hope nothing more was revealed.
Furthermore, if they really came to the capital, they would most likely not know the truth.
But if the Luo family refuses——
Emperor Jiancheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and a fierce light flashed.
"Liang Zhongling stays, everyone else leaves!"
Pei Shangling and Duke Xu left. Liang Zhongling wondered why His Majesty had left him alone. Just as he was wondering why, he heard a voice from above:
"Tan Guangyi's disappearance and Luo Tingshan's identity were reported by a guard named Thin Man. Do you think the disappearances of Zong Wu and Huan Yu are related to the Luo family?"
Liang Zhongling's body trembled and his eyes suddenly turned red.
He puffed and knelt on the cold stone slab, not caring at all about his old body.
"Your Majesty, this must be the work of the Luo family. Please save my son and Huan Yu. Even if it costs me my life, I will do it!"
