What kind of place is Xuanqingwei? Lu Liang can be said to be very clear. With his current weight in the court and his position in the emperor's heart, there is still no room for him to have any influence on the Xuanqing Guards.
It is precisely because others cannot interfere with the Xuanqing Guards that they are called the Emperor's private army. In other words, the Xuanqing Guards are the same as the Forbidden Army. No one can move them except the emperor.
It was precisely when he thought of this that Lu Liang's face turned pale as paper.
If, as he suspected, it was Xuanqing Guard who attacked him this time and wanted to destroy his whole family, then wouldn't it mean that Xuanqing Guard had the courage to obtain the emperor's permission? !
After thinking about it carefully, Lu Liang keenly realized that his misfortune might have something to do with the Qin family. Could it be that those pills were exposed?
The more Lu Liang thought about it, the more he felt that he was right. And following this guess, he quickly thought of the time in the Imperial City when he agreed to the Qin family's request and acted as a mediator between the Qin family and Shen Hao of the Black Flag Camp. Is that the source of everything?
No regrets later?
Lu Liang regretted it so much that his back molars almost broke. The only blame is that I was careless and self-righteous at the time. I thought it was just a small personal grudge. I thought that with my own face, I could let Shen Hao find a way to go down the stairs to clear the gap with the Qin family. I thought that there was a safe relationship between the Qin family and the Black Flag Camp. distance.
The result... didn't seem to be what Lu Liang thought.
There is no point in just regretting it. His family members had been killed, so if what he expected was true, Xuan Qingwei would never leave him alive.
As for why he didn't just take people directly, but chose this despicable method? Lu Liang could only laugh sadly in his heart. What else could it be because of? Apart from taking care of the emperor's face, Xuan Qingwei had no reason to kill people so secretly. Isn't their favorite thing to do and behead someone's head?
In this way, the rest of him... Lu Liang took a deep breath and struggled to sit up from the bed, no longer leaning on the wall behind him.
"Come......"
Just when he was about to open his mouth to exchange for a servant to come in and help him dress, the scene in front of him suddenly made the voice behind him stuck in his neck. He was so horrified that he couldn't say a word, and at the same time his whole body was cold.
Because a person who shouldn't have appeared in his room was sitting at the table in his room at some time, even holding a teapot and pouring water into the teacup, with a leisurely attitude and a smile on his lips.
It's Shen Hao from Black Flag Camp! Why is he here? !
"Master Lu, if you don't feel well, it's best to lie down and rest." Shen Hao smiled and took a sip of the tea before putting it down. It had been a while since he entered the house with his escape skills. Before seeing Lu Liang, he seemed to be meditating on something and did not disturb him. Now the other party wanted to get out of bed, so he said hello.
"Shen...Mr. Shen, you, why are you here?" Lu Liang was not simple at all. Under the repeated blows, there were speculations about life and death in his heart, but after being so frightened, he actually recovered in a few breaths. normal. It seemed that Shen Hao's sudden appearance was just strange.
Shen Hao said with a smile: "I heard that Mr. Lu was in trouble at home, so Shen came over to take a look. Mr. Lu, are you worried too much? You should get more rest. Getting out of bed is not a good idea."
"Haha, thank you for your concern, Mr. Shen. I'm just a little hungry, and I want to ask the servants outside to cook some food to fill my stomach." After Lu Liang said this, he greeted loudly outside the door, as he usually did when calling his servants. .
But no one answered when I called.
Lu Liang: "..." Looking at Shen Hao who was smiling but not smiling, he understood that he was afraid that he would be in trouble today. And his previous speculation seemed to be coming true step by step.
After that, the room was silent for a long time, and Lu Liang seemed to be able to hear his own increasingly rapid breathing.
"Master Lu, this is what happened. Do you still need Shen to explain it to you now?" Shen Hao came today to see Lu Liang off in person.
If not for anything else, just because of Lu Liang’s mouth.
Because of Ye Lansheng’s previous mistakes. What Shen Hao was worried about was whether Lu Liang would reveal some secrets about the Jing Dynasty when he knew that he was about to die. It will be a big trouble if you spread your words. This is not because he doesn't trust Wang Yiming, who is specifically responsible, but because Shen Hao doesn't want to get into trouble, and he feels at ease now that he can go there in person.
After hearing what Shen Hao said, Lu Liang knew that he was at an end. For a while, he actually couldn't bear much resentment, but only unwillingness and regret.
In the past, he gritted his teeth and survived, but now the good days have just begun but he jumped into the abyss and died. As soon as this emotion came up, Lu Liang's throat became sore, and he vomited out a mouthful of blood.
Shen Hao didn't say much. He took out a packet of powder from the storage bag and put it in a tea cup to melt. He picked it up and walked to the bedside. He looked at Lu Liang, who had a pale face and empty eyes and said, "Mr. Lu, I can fall asleep easily after taking this medicine. There is no pain and no pain." Consider it the last preferential treatment His Majesty will give you. After that, your reputation will be clean and you will be able to enjoy His Majesty's condolences.
So, Master Lu, will you do it yourself, or will Shen do it for you? "
The medicine powder that kills people is a secret medicine that exists within Xuan Qingwei. It takes effect immediately after swallowing it and dissipates invisible after half an hour, giving the appearance of death from heart failure.
Looking at the normal tea in the cup, Lu Liang trembled and raised his head numbly to look at Shen Hao again, shaking his hands but unable to lift them up.
Except for those who have experienced life and death many times, who is not afraid of death? What's more, Lu Liang knew that his death was not honorable at all, and he didn't have the courage to commit suicide.
"Forget it, let me see Mr. Lu off on his last journey." Shen Hao sighed, what does it mean that you will not survive because of your own misfortune? That's it. Now I know I'm afraid, but it's too late.
"No! I don't want to..."
Once Shen Hao's soul power moved, it would be difficult for Lu Liang to move again. I couldn't speak either. So a cup of tea mixed with medicinal powder entered Lu Liang's stomach smoothly, accompanied by two lines of clear tears.
After only ten breaths, Lu Liang's body collapsed, and his eyelids couldn't help but fall down. Finally, Shen Hao helped him return to the quilt and quickly fell asleep. And the fluctuations and vitality of his soul also slowly dissipated in this deep sleep.
Shen Hao did not leave immediately. The magic circle outside the door and the elites from the Black Flag Battalion who came with them were able to control the room without being disturbed. He stood by the bed and waited quietly for Lu Liang's last vestige of life to dissipate before tidying up the room. All traces, escape and leave.
An hour later, mourning sounds could be heard in Luliang's backyard. The judge of the Central Academy of the Old Dynasty, Luliang, the recognized candidate for the next left prime minister in the temple and the emperor's most trusted minister, Luliang, was worried and sick due to the catastrophe at home. Coupled with his hard work, he unfortunately died at home...
That night, Lu Liang's old wife, who was heartbroken by Lu Liang's death, also left with Lu Liang in grief. Even the old servant and housekeeper in the family committed suicide in grief and chose to follow Lu Liang. The loyalty and righteousness are touching...
