Lu Yuan has been inquiring about the cause of Leng Weidong's death during this period. However, after so much time, it is still a little difficult to investigate this matter.
After several days of no results, Lu Yuan sat in his room, thinking about where to start. This is almost a clueless thing. We can't dig out Leng Weidong's body and ask him what happened back then, right?
Outside the reading room, Lu Yuan's confidant suddenly ran in and reported: "Second Master, we have a clue!" Lu Yuan stood up quickly,
"Say it quickly!" The confidant cleared his throat and mentioned a name. Mrs. Sun. Lu Yuan was stunned, wondering what the relationship between Leng Weidong's death and Mrs. Sun was.
But suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he remembered that Mrs. Sun had another connection, and that was the eldest princess of the dynasty!
Lu Yuan hurriedly ordered: "Go and check the whereabouts of Mrs. Sun." His confidant chuckled and said: "Second Master, we have found out. Mrs. Sun has been living in Jinguan City these days, in the one that Leng Lingtian gave her. In the small courtyard." Lu Yuan hurriedly left his room, wanting to rush there immediately.
When he walked to the door of the mansion, he felt that something was wrong again. He should inform Lu Zhi about this matter.
After that, he quickly came to Lu Zhi's room and reported: "Master, the cause of Leng Weidong's death has been revealed." But Lu Zhi was not excited. Instead, he asked with some sadness: "Is it Mrs. Sun who is responsible for the death of Leng Weidong?" Right?" Lu Yuan nodded repeatedly.
But this made Lu Yuan very confused. He originally thought that Lu Zhi would be excited after knowing this eyebrow, but Lu Zhi didn't seem to be excited, but rather a little disappointed.
Isn't this the answer Lu Zhi wants? Lu Zhi said softly: "Mrs. Sun, it's not as simple as it seems on the surface." Lu Zhi didn't know what was going on behind Mrs. Sun, but there was always an intuition that told him that Mrs. Sun was definitely not simple.
Today's Xishu, although on the surface it looks great and the situation is stable, there are always undercurrents. Lu Zhi has also checked several clues these days, and each one makes him a little distressed.
Lu Yuan asked tentatively: "Master, do you want to continue the investigation?" Lu Zhi thought for a while, nodded and said: "Let's continue the investigation for now, remember to bring more people." Lu Yuan bowed and left.
After Lu Yuan walked away, Lu Zhi sat on a chair, rubbed his head, and ordered his servants: "Call all the Lu family's death guards. I have a feeling that something is going to happen soon."... Lu Yuan took the A group of people rushed to Mrs. Sun's small courtyard.
Looking at the open courtyard door, Lu Yuan frowned, but still stepped over the threshold. As soon as they entered the courtyard, they could see Mrs. Sun sitting in front of a stone table in the center of the courtyard. There were some pastries and two cups of tea on it, as if she knew someone would come.
Lu Yuan walked slowly, and suddenly stepped on a branch under his feet. He made a squeaking sound and quickly retracted his feet and took two steps back.
Mrs. Sun turned her head to look at Lu Yuan, stood up and saluted slightly: "Second Master Lu is here as soon as he comes, why should you be so vigilant?" Lu Yuan twitched the corner of his mouth, but still politely said: "Come uninvited, disturbing Mrs. Sun I have free time." Mrs. Sun shook her head and smiled, pointing to another stone bench,
"It's not a bother. I've been waiting for Mr. Lu to come to the door in person. Please take a seat." Lu Yuan didn't know what Mrs. Sun was thinking, but he had already sent people to patrol around the yard when he came, and there was no ambush. What's more, Mrs. Sun, a weak woman, thought it was absolutely impossible to kill someone, so she walked straight over and took a seat.
Mrs. Sun poured Lu Yuan a cup of tea, but instead asked about the family's affairs.
"How is Mrs. Lu lately?" Lu Yuan's eyes were spinning in his sockets. To be honest, he really couldn't tell what Mrs. Sun was thinking at this moment, so he turned back and asked, "Don't bother Mrs. Sun." I'm worried, but it's Mrs. Sun. The Leng family is gone. Are you still staying in Jinguan? Why don't you go back to Kyoto?" Mrs. Sun smiled slightly, picked up a pastry in her hand, and looked at the pastry for no reason. Said: "This pastry has been stored for many days. I think it must be a little bad and can't be eaten anymore." Lu Yuan was not a fool. He naturally understood that there was something in Mrs. Sun's words and sneered: "Mrs. Sun Do you think that I, Mr. Lu, are actually a spoiled pastry?" Mrs. Sun threw the spoiled pastry on the lawn of the yard, and said with a half-smile: "Mr. Lu could have become a fresh pastry, but Mr. Lu's ambition Some are too big, and if left for a long time, they will naturally break." Lu Yuan frowned slightly.
Mrs. Sun had actually extended an invitation to Mrs. Lu before. Lu Yuan also knew something about this, but Lu Zhi did not give an answer.
But think about it, after so many years of lurking, and finally becoming a serf and singing, how could he be willing to be a dowry for others?
Lu Yuan shook his head and said: "Mrs. Sun's words are serious. The Lu family will make Xishu better." Mrs. Sun raised her eyebrows and said: "Oh? Really? But now that the Lu family is in power and the Leng family was in power, It seems to be no different." Lu Yuan said coldly: "Is it possible that Mrs. Sun still hopes that Mrs. Leng will return to her original position?"
"I'm not interested in who can sit in that position." Mrs. Sun picked up the teacup, blew on the hot air, took a sip and smiled: "I'm only interested in who can help the court." Lu Yuan rubbed his face, His tone became vicious,
"Mrs. Sun, I'm not happy with this tea." At the same time, Lu Yuan clapped his hands. The servants of the Lu family who had been guarding outside the courtyard rushed into the courtyard and surrounded the two people in the center.
Mrs. Sun glanced up, slowly put down the tea cup, and said with a smile: "Lu Yuan, is this Lu's sincerity?" Lu Yuan stood up, unwilling to continue talking nonsense.
After all, he came with a mission. He originally thought that if Mrs. Sun had a softer attitude, he would give her a good look. After all, Mrs. Sun was also respected in the Leng family and treated her servants very well.
If Mrs. Sun could be kinder, Lu Yuan would naturally not want to make things difficult for Mrs. Sun, he just wanted to get the answers he wanted to know.
But Mrs. Sun's words were thorny and even threatening, so Lu Yuan was naturally unwilling to endure it any longer.
Things are different now. She is no longer the aloof Mrs. Sun. And Lu Yuan is no longer a servant of the Leng family, but the second master of the Lu family!
Lu Yuan said directly: "Mrs. Sun, you were kind to me at the Leng family. Naturally, I will not forget it. I just want to know the truth of some things." Mrs. Sun looked at Lu Yuan, still smiling, directly Pointed out: "It's about the cause of Leng Weidong's death, right?" Lu Yuan nodded and said: "Since Mrs. Sun already knows it, I won't waste any words. You only need to tell me everything you know. I will definitely not make things difficult for you." Mrs. Sun held her chin in one hand and tapped the stone table with her fingers with the other hand. She thought for a while and said, "Of course I know the cause of Leng Weidong's death."
"It's just... I don't really want to tell you." Lu Yuan suppressed his anger and said in a vicious tone: "Mrs. Sun, please don't toast or eat as a fine. I'll take your previous status into account and leave you You need some face, but don't give it away." Mrs. Sun sighed, stood up, looked at Lu Yuan, and asked: "What, if I didn't tell you, were you really going to kill someone?" Lu Yuan stepped back. He took two steps and gave the servant behind him a look.
The servants understood and immediately prepared to step forward. At this time, Mrs. Sun suddenly said: "If you kill me, I'm afraid you won't be able to find out the cause of Leng Weidong's death even if you spend your whole life investigating." Lu Yuan hurriedly asked the servants to stop and stepped forward again. He directly stretched out a hand, grabbed Mrs. Sun's neck, and said in a vicious tone: "Tell me, what do you know?" Mrs. Sun's face was red from being choked, but at this moment she was still Trying hard to smile.
Lu Yuan was even more furious when he saw this situation, and he threw Mrs. Sun out with one hand. With a thud, Mrs. Sun hit a big tree in the yard.
A trace of blood flowed from the corner of Mrs. Sun's mouth, but she stood up with a smile and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.
"Lu Yuan, how many days do you think you have to live?" Seeing that Mrs. Sun refused to let go even after being beaten, and even threatened her, Lu Yuan became even more angry and rushed directly to Mrs. Sun, while his right hand condensed A burst of energy hit Mrs. Sun hard.
Mrs. Sun did not dodge at all, but took the punch and flew back. Mrs. Sun hit the wall, which was slightly dented, and there was a sound of bone cracking in her right arm, which was already broken.
Sweat broke out on Mrs. Sun's forehead. She was not a martial arts genius to begin with. Part of her ability to serve as the commander-in-chief of the Secret Investigation Department was due to her background, but more importantly, her mind.
Sometimes, a good mind is more important than a good martial arts. Lu Yuan took a deep breath and threatened: "Mrs. Sun, if you refuse to tell me everything, I can only send you to see the King of Hell." At this time, Mrs. Sun was unable to get up, gritted her teeth and said: "Lu Yuan, do you really think that killing me will solve everything?" Lu Yuan's eyes were gloomy and he said angrily: "Mrs. Sun, I'll see you in the next life!" As he said that, he had already rushed towards Mrs. Sun. .
But at this moment, he suddenly glanced at the sky for no reason. There was a sword intent erupting on the horizon.
Then a sword light flashed past and hit Lu Yuan. Lu Yuan hurriedly retreated, and at the same time activated the energy in his body. After taking a deep breath, he hit the sword light.
The two collided, causing a majestic wave of air. At the same time, blood splattered. Almost in the blink of an eye, I saw an arm falling from the sky.
When he saw it clearly, Lu Yuan had been smashed down from the sky and fell on the lawn in the courtyard, creating a deep pit.
At this time, Lu Yuan's painful roar echoed in everyone's ears in the yard. Seeing this, the servants of the Lu family rushed forward and protected Lu Yuan.
In the sky, before he could see the figure clearly, another wave of air came. The servants quickly joined forces to deal with it, but the air wave seemed to be telepathic, bypassing the front of the servants and heading straight towards Lu Yuan, who was lying on the lawn.
Lu Yuan roared in pain again, and there were two more sword marks on his legs. Lu Yuan roared: "Who is it?!" A sword light flashed across again, and this time there was another sword mark on Lu Yuan's chest.
Lu Yuan, who was lying on the ground, finally saw the man's appearance clearly, but his pupils were dilated. He is a young man.
He holds a sword in his hand. No front. Lu Yuan said in shock: "It's you!" Gu Xiaotian said indifferently: "You destroyed Mrs. Sun's right arm, and I will also chop off your right arm. It is reasonable and reasonable." Lu Yuan gritted his teeth and said: "Gu Xiaotian, I will You have escaped from the city, I didn't expect you to dare to come back!" Gu Xiaotian laughed loudly and said: "The matter in Xishu has not been resolved yet, and there is no reason for me to leave. Lu Yuan, think carefully about what you should do in your next life. Something." Just when Gu Xiaotian was about to take action, someone suddenly shouted at the door of the courtyard.
"Wait a minute! Keep someone under the sword!"
