Chapter 97 Mingchun is dead

Lu Huaihe closed his eyes, his expression was calm and unperturbed, and he just asked calmly: "What did you do at Su Ronghai's birthday party?"

Lu Yanxiu was startled.

Then he lowered his head and refused to answer.

Lu Huaihe did not force him to ask, but just let go of the corner of his clothes and said slowly: "If you put this mind on your official career, you will not be just a secretary."

"The second prince clearly promoted me..."

It's Yuanwailang, not Secretary!

"But there is no official seal on the document, and your official position is not recognized by the court."

"How could it be?" Lu Yanxiu was completely stunned.

He was willing to frame Su Ronghai in exchange for the second prince just for the sake of promotion. Could it be that the second prince played a trick on him?

Lu Huaihe glanced at him and continued, "I will not interfere in your case, but the crown prince will judge it personally. His Royal Highness is fair and just, as long as you are wronged, he will definitely clear your name."

That's right.

Lu Yanxiu was afraid that the cursed object was the property of the Lu Mansion!

His eyes were bloodshot, he raised his head and stared at Lu Huaihe and asked seriously, "Uncle, for the sake of our family, can you protect me?"

Lu Huaihe frowned slightly, and the alienation in his eyes explained everything.

Lu Yanxiu laughed at himself, and there was no respect for superiors and inferiors in his words. He sneered: "Even you were deceived by Su He's few words. We are all surnamed Lu, and outsiders will at least be kind and give us a bowl of rice and a cup of tea... But you are worse than outsiders." They

have the same surname Lu and are from the same family, but their careers are very different.

Lu Yanxiu wanted Lu Huaihe to help him many times. He only needed to promote him a little bit, and the situation of the Lu family would be different. If the situation was better, would they all calculate Su He's dowry and do things that would be gossiped about by others?

But the eldest princess and Lu Huaihe were as hard-hearted as steel and had no mercy!

"Are you telling me this to bring up the past?"

Lu Huaihe's eyes were dark and his words were cold.

Lu Yanxiu was shocked: "What past?"

"Why did the princess break off all ties with you? Why did she leave the Lu Mansion with me in my arms overnight? You don't know either?"

Lu Yanxiu suddenly remembered that Lu Zhili seemed to know about this, and his grandmother seemed to know about it, but he had no one to tell.

"Back then, the Lu family sent people back to their hometown to worship their ancestors. My father and your grandmother's father went with them. What happened that led to his tragic death in the mountains, while your grandmother and father returned home unscathed? Don't say you don't know a word. After so many years, you should have known it by osmosis. Such a blood feud, even if the princess does not pursue it, I can't let it go!"

After saying this powerful words, Lu Huaihe's chest trembled slightly. The scene of the lack of his father's company in the past few decades emerged in his mind. Recalling that the princess had cried countless times by the window, the idea of ​​finding out the truth became clearer and clearer!

But the princess was unwilling to find out.

Lu Huaihe could only endure that thought for the time being.

I just thought that since I had severed my relationship with the Lu family, I would not interfere with each other and live my own life. But

when I saw Lu Yanxiu today, he said those cruel words.

"You think I won't help you? Then let me ask you, if the Su family fell into your trap, would you save any of them? Even an innocent child?"

Lu Yanxiu's face froze, and he argued in a low voice: "How is it different?"

"Why is it different? Aren't their lives lives?!"

"I...uncle, it's not like that. You know Zhili is knowledgeable and a rare talent. It was Su He who designed him to cheat, which ruined his official career and also ruined the official career of the Lu family!"

If Su He hadn't been playing tricks, Lu Zhili might have replaced Su Ronghai's position, or worked in other places, but in any case, his rank would not be lower than his small fifth rank.

Now everything has changed...

"Su He and his wife and I are one. We prosper together and suffer together." Lu Huaihe's bones reveal an invisible power. His tone is not loud, but there is an unquestionable power.

In other words, he will not stand on the side of the Lu family.

How can he get close with a sea of ​​blood between them?

Lu Yanxiu already knew his decision, as if he had seen through his own fate, and smiled silently: "What a couple! She and I were also destined to be together?"

Lu Huaihe pursed his thin lips and pulled out a contemptuous smile.

"Now I am by her side."

"You?"

"Get out."

The late autumn night was a little chilly.

Su He stood outside the Dali Temple and waited quietly for a while before seeing Lu Huaihe coming out from inside.

"Why are you here?"

Lu Huaihe touched her slightly cold cheek, and asked Qingyun to get a cloak and put it on her before stopping.

Su He answered truthfully: "Mingchun was detained, I came to see her."

Lu Huaihe remembered this name, and he had read about this case during the day.

It seems that he is the murderer who strangled Lu Ji?

There are both witnesses and evidence in the case, and with Liu Qiuqiu's identification, the case will be concluded soon.

"I thought you..."

Su He stared at him: "What did you think of me?"

She thought she was here to see Lu Yanxiu.

Lu Huaihe breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his head to hold her hand in his palm, gently stroking his fingertips, and said softly: "I thought you were here to take me home."

Su He smiled softly, with tears in her eyes.

"You are so old, and you still don't know the way back to Li Garden?"

Lu Huaihe curled his lips: "If you are here, I will know."

The warmth from his fingers made Su He's heart move slightly, and he couldn't help but reach out and hold his hand.

Lu Huaihe was slightly startled, with joy in his eyes, and let her do what she wanted.

Li Garden.

In the dead of night.

Su He and Lu Huaihe slept on the same bed.

Suddenly awakened by a rapid knock on the door, Lu Huaihe held Su He, who was slightly frightened, tighter and asked outside in a hoarse voice: "What happened?"

"My Lord! News came from the dungeon that Mingchun was poisoned and was dying. He insisted on seeing the young lady before he died!"

It was Qingyun's voice, still panting. He must have run all the way here to report.

Su He woke up immediately after hearing this and pushed Lu Huaihe away. Pei Xia, who heard the voice, quickly turned on the lamp and helped her get dressed.

As human lives were at stake, Lu Huaihe also stood up and asked as he got dressed: "The jailers in the Dali Temple were on duty in shifts, how could they be poisoned? Who left without permission?"

Qingyun hesitated: "Li Si's wife had a difficult delivery and was bleeding heavily. He was worried about the adults and children, so he went back immediately without asking for leave. When we found out, the person who poisoned her had already left, leaving Mingchun alone on the ground... We have called a doctor, who can alleviate some of the poison, and it is estimated that she can hold on until the young lady comes to meet her."

Su He was a little anxious.

Since he wanted to see her, he must have something to tell her.

Now we can only hope that the poison will dissipate slowly and keep Mingchun a little longer.
