"I've dreamt of Zhao Lang coming to see him for two consecutive days. Could something have happened to Zhao Lang?"
The next day, sitting in the courtyard of the Hanlin Academy, Lu Mingfei had no intention of paying attention to the excitement of his colleagues. His mind was full of thoughts about whether something had happened to Zhao Lang, otherwise why would he have such dreams repeatedly?
Since their last separation, they haven't seen each other for a long time except for correspondence.
"Alang, I miss you a little..." Lu Mingfei realized for the first time that missing someone was so painful.
This was the first time in all the years he and Zhao Lang had known each other that they had been separated for such a long time.
Do you miss me?
You'll miss me too, right?
Do you miss me? That's why you come to me in my dreams every day?
In fact, what he was more worried about was whether something had happened to Zhao Lang.
Pingzhou and Jingdu Prefecture were too far apart, and the letters they sent took a long time to reach each other. If something really happened to Zhao Lang, by the time he received the letter, it would have been over.
Moreover, he knew that Zhao Lang would only report good news to him and not bad news. He was afraid that if something really happened, that person would definitely not tell him and would also forbid his subordinates to tell him.
Thinking of this, Lu Mingfei became even more worried.
"No, if we continue like this here, I don't know when we can leave!" Realizing that continuing to wait like this was not a solution, he had to force the emperor.
Suddenly, a method flashed through Lu Mingfei's mind that could force Prime Minister Wan to kill him and force the emperor to let him go.
Although it may be a little dangerous for me, this is the only way!
That day, he left the Hanlin Academy at noon, without waiting for the end of his shift. He said to the guard who brought him food, "Let's go to Yipinxuan for a drink."
"Going for a drink? Now?" Guard Ma was surprised. Their masters... were going to drink in broad daylight?
Is it going to rain red? How could their parents do such a thing?
"Yes, right now!" Lu Mingfei climbed onto the carriage himself and said to the people who were still standing there in a daze, "Hurry up, let's go. What are you still standing there for?"
"Okay, let's go now." Guard Ma had no choice but to come over quickly, put the food box in his hand on the carriage, sat on the shaft and drove the carriage away.
On this day, Lu Mingfei "drank a lot of wine" in the restaurant, and took advantage of his "drunkenness" to write a poem to satirize Prime Minister Wan, who saw a girl of fifteen or sixteen on the road, and insisted that a matchmaker come to propose marriage, and then carried the girl into the prime minister's residence in a sedan chair to be a concubine.
"... Laojun is in his seventies or eighties, and he enters the bridal chamber on crutches, hahahaha..."
When Lord Lu left the restaurant, he left behind a lot of laughter.
It was the afternoon when the restaurant's business was at its peak, and many customers were eating in the restaurant's lobby.
When everyone heard the poem written by Mr. Lu, some people initially read it along with their heads shaking. Before they could praise Mr. Lu's poem, many people suddenly remembered something.
Didn’t the Prime Minister just a few days ago send someone to forcibly abduct a decent girl and bring her into the Prime Minister’s residence as a concubine?
Could it be that this poem written by Lu Zhuangyuan is a satire on the Prime Minister?
The restaurant suddenly became quiet.
Back home, Lu Mingfei didn't look drunk at all. He asked someone to bring him a pen and paper. He rewrote the poem he had written today twice and handed it to the guard standing beside him. "You find a few brothers to find the beggars in the city, give them some money, and teach them to sing this poem I wrote."
"I want everyone in Kyoto, young and old, to know tomorrow that Prime Minister Wan raped a commoner!"
"Yes, sir, don't worry. Leave this matter to us, we will definitely handle it for you!" Guard Ma took the paper handed to him by their lord and turned around to go out to find his brothers to make arrangements.
Lu Mingfei was in a good mood and took a sip of tea, humming a little tune.
Not long after, Guard Ma came back and told him that it had been arranged.
Lu Mingfei suddenly remembered that there was another person in his family, so he asked, "Yes, I asked you to change Caifeng's household registration that day. Have you done it yet?"
"Change it and give it to him." If their master hadn't forgotten, Guard Ma would have almost forgotten about it.
"Did he say anything to you?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"He wanted to come and thank you in person, but I told him you were busy recently and didn't let him disturb you. Then he asked me to thank you, sir." Guard Ma didn't want the little vixen who lived in the side yard to come and see their master, for fear that the little fox would seduce their master.
Although I know that the adults in their family will not be seduced by a little vixen.
However, if their prince knew that Lord Lu had too much contact with a young waiter, he would probably be unhappy.
How could Lu Mingfei not see through his guard's thoughts? "Okay, I understand."
"I'll go to the study for a while."
"Okay, sir, I'll take you there." Seeing that his master didn't blame him, Guard Ma knew that his master tacitly allowed him to stop the young waiter and not let anyone disturb him.
"It's just a few steps away, and I still need you to take me there?" Lu Mingfei looked at the person following behind him and found it funny again.
"I'm not afraid that Prime Minister Wan will send people to cause trouble for you." Guard Ma followed behind their master.
Seeing their master smiling so beautifully, he was secretly praising their young master for his good taste.
In the whole world, there is no one who is more handsome, can read, make money, make weapons, and is more powerful than their adults!
Of course, their eldest son is an exception. He is also very handsome and is a perfect match for their master!
If Zhao Lang, who was far away in Beijun, knew that the only good thing his subordinate had for him was that he thought his master had a good-looking face, he would definitely punish the subordinate by whipping him a hundred times.
***
In Kyoto Prefecture, news of excitement spreads the fastest.
Within half a day, half of the people in Kyoto knew about the poem that Lu Zhuangyuan wrote in the restaurant.
Knowing that this poem was a satire on their Prime Minister taking a concubine, some scholars only dared to discuss it in a low voice in private and did not dare to speak out loudly.
However, this did not affect their admiration for the top scholar Lu.
When officials in the government heard this poem, they mostly praised their prime minister for his continued strength and vigor, and flattered him.
That night, Prime Minister Wan found out that Lu Mingfei had written a poem outside to satirize him for taking a concubine.
Especially when he heard the line "Laojun was in his seventies or eighties, and he walked into the bridal chamber on crutches", he almost got furious.
"How dare you, you little brat!"
"How can this be possible!"
"Lu Mingfei!!!"
The last three words seemed to pop out from between his teeth.
"You'd better not fall into my hands, otherwise, I will make you wish you were dead!"
"Go, find a few people and bring Lu Mingfei to me!" If Lu Mingfei is not caught and punished tonight, Prime Minister Wan will never be able to let go of the hatred in his heart!
"Yes!" The guard on the side received the order and arranged a team of killers to go to Lu Mansion to capture people.
That night, the Lu family was bustling with activity.
However, as soon as the assassins sent by Prime Minister Wan landed, before they could even enter the yard where the owner lived, they were shot dead by the secret guards guarding the house.
After the last assassin fell, the dark guard flew over to their Ma Ge and asked their Ma Ge: "Ma Ge, what should we do with these people?"
"I thought Prime Minister Wan would send someone? Instead, he sent a bunch of losers like this? Are they looking down on us?"
"Go, throw them into Prime Minister Wan's yard!" Guard Ma walked into the yard, stopped beside a corpse, and kicked it.
"The adults are sleeping, don't disturb them."
"Okay, we got it."
The group of secret guards also knew that letting their master have a good sleep was the top priority, so no one had the idea of telling their master about this matter.
So a group of secret guards who went to other people's homes to provoke in the middle of the night, each carrying a corpse, flew to the prime minister's residence using lightness skills, and threw the corpse into the wall of the prime minister's residence.
Fortunately, their master's residence was not far from the prime minister's residence, so it didn't take much time to go back and forth.
At this time, Lu Mingfei was still sleeping soundly in his bed, unaware of the hustle and bustle outside.
It was Caifeng, who lived in a remote place, who heard the noise at night and sat up from the bed.
After thinking about it, he finally couldn't help it. He got up, put on his clothes and prepared to go out to see if anything had happened to their adults.
When he was about to leave, he thought for a moment and found a towel to cover his face before opening the door and leaving.
However, before he could reach the yard where the adults lived, he was blocked by a hand.
"Bang!"
The two men immediately started fighting.
Realizing that someone else was coming this way, Caifeng just wanted to escape from here quickly.
"Want to run? You'll have to wait for this opportunity!" Guard Ma noticed that the person wanted to escape, snorted and laughed, then chased after him and entangled the person who wanted to run.
As soon as the two men fought, Caifeng knew that he was no match for Guard Ma, so he used his lightness skills to fly upwards.
"call out!"
However, before he could fly up, an iron arrow shot out and pierced his foot directly, and he fell directly from the sky.
At this time, the secret guards from other places also arrived, and a group of people surrounded the fish that had fallen to the ground.
"I caught you! Don't move! The sword in my hand has no eyes!" Guard Ma put the long sword in his hand to the neck of the man who fell to the ground, and with a stretch of his hand, he took off the veil on the face of the man in black.
"Is it you?"
"Sure enough, I guessed right!"
He had just felt that this figure looked familiar, and he hadn't expected it to be someone he knew. So when Guard Ma saw Caifeng's face, he wasn't surprised at all.
"It's a shame that our master is so good to you, but you are actually Prime Minister Wan's man!" Guard Ma squatted down and pinched Caifeng's face with one hand, wishing he could pinch this man to death.
"I'm not..." With his face pinched, Caifeng said these three words with difficulty.
"Oh, you are not the Prime Minister Wan's man, then who sent you?" asked the guard Ma.
