Chapter 247
"It's boring like this." Lu Heng said, "Who cares about their sons and grandsons, my own children haven't gone down yet."
When Lu Heng was there, as long as he wanted to, he would never be cold. He knows a lot of news, has a good memory and can talk, and can take care of everyone. The person being cared for was very comfortable, but it was too boring for Lu Heng.
Every sentence is calculated and thoughtful. If you can't listen to it or say it casually, it's better to let him be quiet for a while. Lu Heng put the balm on all the hair, took the comb and brushed Wang Yanqing's hair, and asked, "Do you think what Xia Wenjin said today is the truth?"
Wang Yanqing thought for a while and said, "It may not be the truth, but about Xue Kan, I shouldn't have lied."
Ordinary people can show their emotions and anger, but for higher-level politicians, it is more difficult to judge their thoughts by their expressions. Wang Yanqing carefully recalled Xia Wenjin's reaction tonight, and said, "When you mentioned Xue Kan's confession to him, although he quickly controlled the expression on his face, his eyebrows still rose, indicating that he was also surprised. When he falsely tested him, he pretended to be angry and excited, but his eyebrows were always smooth. The raised eyebrows showed that he was not under pressure. No pressure at all."
Lu Heng nodded, similar to his judgment. Wang Yanqing made decisions based on Xia Wenjin's expression, while Lu Heng made decisions based on logic. There is no need for Xia Wenjin to do such a thing. The eldest prince is still young, and there are several concubines in the harem who are pregnant. No one knows what will happen in the future. Why did Xia Wenjin jump out so early? This is more like a crime that Zhang Jinggong deliberately fabricated in order to eradicate dissidents.
Xia Wenjin may have made sure of this, so he is not afraid.
Lu Heng put Wang Yanqing's hair neatly behind his back, held her shoulders with both hands, and leaned over to look at her in the mirror: "The emperor only asked me to investigate the matter, I have no time to control who is wrong. I can go tomorrow. Reunited with the Emperor."
Wang Yanqing nodded, she didn't move, and her instinct told her that this was not what Lu Heng wanted to say. Sure enough, Lu Heng paused and said, "You heard what Fu Tingzhou said today. What do you think would happen if the emperor gave him a marriage to the Marquis of Yongping?"
Wang Yanqing felt that Lu Heng's question was unbelievable, and she said in surprise: "That's good, he and Marquis Wu Ding each get what they need, and Miss Hong is the same family. What do you want to ask?"
There seemed to be something in Lu Heng's eyes, which was dark and secretive, with unknown meaning. Taking a closer look, Lu Heng's eyes were gentle and clear, staring at her gently, there was no yīn haze. Wang Yanqing thought to herself, it might be the reflection of the bronze mirror just now, she must have read it wrong.
What does Lu Heng want to ask? He wanted to ask him if he made Fu Tingzhou marry the Hong family daughter, which completely ruined the way of Wang Yanqing and her lover. When Wang Yanqing regained his memory, would he blame him? But Lu Heng thought about it, things have already been done, and if there is any meaning, even if Wang Yanqing is unwilling, will Lu Heng stop it?
Lu Heng knew that he would not. So, there is no need to ask this question.
Lu Heng looked at Wang Yanqing and smiled, reached out to caress her cheek, and looked into her eyes through the mirror: "Qingqing, what if I ask for another marriage proposal from us by the way?"
Wang Yanqing was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized that this was what he wanted to ask, no wonder he was so abnormal just now. Wang Yanqing pursed her lips and said, "But, your filial piety period has not yet passed."
Lu Heng raised his eyebrows, not knowing whether to be happy or sad. The happy thing is that she did not refuse, but worried about keeping filial piety, but the sad thing is that he really has to keep filial piety.
The more Lu Heng thought about it, the more suffocated he became, the skin under his palms was like congealed fat, the beauty in the mirror was like jade, and he couldn't do anything. Lu Heng couldn't relieve his anger, leaned over and bit her cheek fiercely. Wang Yanqing hid while laughing, and said, "Don't make trouble, there is still hair cream on your face."
Just in time, Lu Heng shifted his position and grabbed Wang Yanqing's lips to plunder. He put one hand around Wang Yanqing's shoulder, hugging him very tightly, it was useless for Wang Yanqing to push all parts of his body, and in the end, he was almost suffocated by the kiss.
Lu Heng also stopped panting. He leaned against her neck, his breath heavily on Wang Yanqing's ear: "Okay, you said. We will get married when the filial piety period is over."
Chapter 82 Behind the Scenes
Dongnuan Pavilion, the sun shines on the incense burner, and the green smoke curls up among the golden light spots.
Standing in front of the imperial case, Lu Heng methodically reported the investigation to the emperor.
"On October 12, after the imperial court disbanded, Xue Kan went to visit Peng's house and showed Peng Ze the memorial that he had just written. Peng Ze left Xue Kan for dinner, but he said at the dinner table that he drank too much and lost his mind. , let Xue Kan keep the memorial, and he will read it tomorrow when he wakes up. Xue Kan promised that the next day, Peng Ze went to Wenyuan Pavilion to find Zhang Shoufu, and secretly talked with Zhang Shoufu for half an hour. In the afternoon, Zhang Shoufu brought a copy of the memorial. Transcript audience."
Lu Heng said and handed Xue Kan's original draft of the memorial to the emperor. The emperor took it and looked at it, and it was nine points similar to what Zhang Jinggong brought. Seeing that the emperor had almost read it, Lu Heng continued: "This draft was found by the minister from the Xue family's study, and there are several other scraps. The servants of the Xue family also confessed that Xue Kan has been in the study since October. I wrote this manuscript and edited and edited several versions, but I still can't make up my mind. The servants of the Xue family said that one day in mid-October, Xue Kan returned drunk and seemed very emotional. On October 14th, Peng Ze was drunk. Xianlou invited Xue Kan at a banquet, sent back the original manuscript, and praised the book for its good writing, urging Xue Kan to publish it as soon as possible. Xue Kan still hesitated until October 20th, when Peng Ze called again, saying that Zhang Shoufu also appreciated it very much If Xue Kan scribbles this excerpt, Zhang Shoufu will help it. On October 21, Xue Kan will transcribe the excerpt and upload it to the table."
