Chapter 341
The world is extremely harsh on women, and she doesn't even need to do anything wrong. Liang Fu accidentally bumped into the murder scene of her stepmother, and was convicted without any evidence; Qin Xianger's sister was violated, but in the end, Qin Jier committed suicide, and the perpetrator was still the same. Even if Lu Heng was able to protect Wang Yanqing from the plots of his ministers, if someone spread rumors by using rude tricks, Lu Heng would not be able to stop the public.
Women's festivals are the most vulnerable, and can't stand the slightest wind. At that time, everyone's mouth is full of gold, even if Lu Heng doesn't care, what if Wang Yanqing can't think about it?
She didn't do anything wrong and shouldn't live in pain all her life.
Being able to easily read people's hearts is a gift from God, but her talent should be hidden in the crowd. Mu Xiu Yulin, the wind will destroy it, Lu Heng can't let the emperor destroy Wang Yanqing, all this should stop.
Guo Tao still looked at Lu Heng earnestly. Lu Heng stood up, patted Guo Tao on the shoulder, and said, "I understand everything you said. I have already made arrangements for these things, so you can go back to work first."
When Guo Tao heard this, he was secretly relieved. Since Lu Heng said there were other arrangements, Guo Tao naturally wouldn't talk too much.
After Guo Tao left, Lu Heng stood alone in the palace. He paused, walked to the window with his hands behind his back, and looked up at the twilight sky.
It's late now, and it's not convenient to enter the palace. It seems that tomorrow, he has to talk to the emperor.
·
The next day, Lu Heng appeared at the door of Wang Yanqing's house on time. Yesterday, she was temporarily called to the Qianqing Palace, and there was a small tail left in the questioning. Wang Yanqing finished asking the remaining female officials today, and almost finished checking the important positions.
In the imperial city, the guards at the palace gate saw that Lu Heng's carriage was very familiar, so they let it go without asking a word. Wang Yanqing is now also acquainted with the eunuch of the West Factory, and is used to getting off the bus and parting with Lu Heng.
This was a practice in the past. The two went their separate ways after entering the palace, and did not meet until the evening when they were about to leave the palace. But today, when Wang Yanqing was about to leave, Lu Heng suddenly stopped her: "Qingqing."
Wang Yanqing turned back, Lu Heng looked at her with his back to the sun, his eyes darkened, making it difficult to see his expression. He smiled and said, "It's been hard work for you these days."
Wang Yanqing waited for a while, then asked suspiciously, "You told me to stop just to say this?"
Lu Heng smiled and nodded. Wang Yanqing gave him a fixed look, thinking that this man was crazy, so he ignored him and left.
After Wang Yanqing walked away, Lu Heng looked at it for a long time before saying, "Go to the Qianqing Palace."
Lu Heng was a frequent visitor to the Qianqing Palace, and he did not encounter any obstacles on the way. Seeing Lu Heng, the emperor didn't even raise his eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lu Heng first reported the court's movements to the emperor during this period. The first war against Japan is imperative. It only takes a word to start the war, but a lot of preparations are needed before. Recruitment and food are the six things. What Lu Heng has to do is to collect enough information before the war to ensure that the emperor can make the most reasonable decision.
Lu Heng has a good memory and speaks in a clear and coherent manner. Listening to him speaks less effort than reading articles. So the emperor asked Wenchen to hand over the memorial, but he always authorized him to make oral reports to Lu Heng. After Lu Heng finished the foreshadowing, he slowly led to his real purpose today.
Lu Heng said: "Your Majesty, I heard that the minister's wife recommended Shen Xibi yesterday. She doesn't understand the rules of the palace, she speaks out her tongue, and she dares to point out the affairs of the palace. Fortunately, the emperor and the queen never took anger at her. It will make her enter the palace to make trouble. Please forgive the emperor."
After Lu Heng finished speaking, he looked down at the ground. The emperor finally raised his eyelids and looked at Lu Heng meaningfully.
Lu Heng felt the emperor's scrutiny, but he didn't move. Lu Heng's moral level is flexible most of the time, his bottom line fluctuates up and down, and becomes upright, jian ren, benevolent, and cruel according to the needs of the situation. He became a sharp knife, allowing the emperor to use it without any psychological burden. But Lu Heng is not a knife that can be disposed of at will.
Everyone in the world said that he was ruthless and wicked, but Lu Heng actually had very strong principles. One of them is this dress. The Lu family has been in the army for generations. Lu Heng is not a good person, but he is not willing to be a person without bones. He also has the dignity of a soldier, the land under his feet, the country behind him, no matter what happens, he will not allow others to interfere.
Now, there is one more item, his woman.
When the limit is not reached, Lu Heng won't really care no matter what he does, but once he touches the bottom line, he won't be able to take a step.
For those dangerous things, Lu Heng didn't mind the emperor letting him take risks, but Wang Yanqing couldn't. He wants to eliminate all dangers that can threaten her, even if it is only a little possible.
To this end, he did not hesitate to contradict the emperor, and made his own decision to stop Wang Yanqing from entering the palace. It is very risky to do this, and if the emperor is angry about it, Lu Heng will regret it, but he will not be shaken.
The emperor was really surprised when he saw Lu Heng like this.
It is a taboo for the monarch and his wife to get close, and the emperor is also very aware of this, and people have long been careful to remove traces. The emperor still has this confidence, and he will not be so hungry. But yesterday, after the emperor asked Wang Yanqing to evaluate his concubines, today Lu Heng suddenly entered the palace and took Wang Yanqing out under the pretext of asking for a crime.
The emperor knew very well that Lu Heng didn't care about men and women, but was afraid that the emperor's order would bring disaster to Wang Yanqing. There are so many concubines in the harem, Empress Fang, Concubine Wang, Concubine Du Kang, Concubine Lu Jing... each of them is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Once yesterday's events are revealed, the emperor will not have anything, and Wang Yanqing will be in trouble.
