Cui Lin and the others never expected that just after entering the palace, Emperor An would directly dismiss Lu Chongyuan from his official position, beat up everyone in the Lu family, and throw them into prison.
He followed the second prince and the others out in a daze. When they got outside, he came to his senses and his face was filled with joy. Is the Lu family really finished like this?
Several people stood in front of the palace and all saw the young man standing in the corner. However, no one knew Di Tao. After asking the chamberlain in front of the palace, he only said that it was Xiao Yan who brought him.
They just thought they were the owl guards under the command of the Privy Council, and left the palace without anyone asking any questions.
After walking for a while, Grand Master Liang looked back behind him. Thinking of Xiao Yan and Wen Xinhou who were left alone, he felt a little uneasy.
"Mr. Cao, do you know what the Lu family wants to hide?"
Cao Dejiang smiled slightly: "The grand master doesn't even know, how can I know."
"But what you said to me when you came to my house a few days ago..."
"What did I say to the Grand Master?" Cao Dejiang was confused.
Grand Master Liang stared at the smile on Cao Dejiang's face: "You clearly told me that Lu Chongyuan acted arrogantly..."
"Isn't he crazy?"
Cao Dejiang was surprised: "He colluded with the Zhao family to frame the courtiers, killed the four princes and concubines, and committed crimes in the streets with them. I was just reminding the Grand Master that there has been too much chaos in the DPRK recently, and Your Majesty has another headache. We must be cautious at all times. Is the Grand Master okay?" What’s the misunderstanding?”
He looked at Cao Dejiang standing there with his hands folded, looking innocent like "I don't know what you are talking about."
Grand Master Liang felt a surge of depression in his head. He wanted to punch him in the face and call him a shameless villain, but when he thought about it, Cao Dejiang seemed to have said nothing to him when he came to the house that day. They didn't even say anything to him. No bridge has ever been built seriously.
Cao Dejiang only mentioned one sentence that day, saying that the Lu family was acting strangely and that Lu Chongyuan was getting more and more ridiculous. He also said that the Zhao family was implicated by Lu Chongyuan and His Majesty hated him. Zhao Yuanlang's future career was probably over.
He said that Lu Chongyuan was now like a trapped animal without any structure. He only knew how to run around without knowing who he would take advantage of next. Just when the Lu family sent a letter, Lu Chongyuan begged him to send a message to let him see His Majesty. Grand Master Liang subconsciously felt that Lu Chongyuan was not safe. Kindhearted people are rejected directly.
But now that I think about it, it's just a face-to-face meeting. What can Lu Chongyuan do?
If he had not been desperate and had no other options, he would definitely not ask for his help. However, as the dignified head of the Lu family, he was the official secretary of the court. Even if something happened to the Zhao family, with Lu Chongyuan's past connections in the court, if no one deliberately made things difficult, How could he not even want to see His Majesty?
What Lu Chongyuan did tonight was more like being forced to jump over the wall than to become angry and silent. Cao Dejiang clearly knew the secret, but he kept pretending not to prevent him from seeing Lu Chongyuan.
Master Liang never expected that he would raise eagles all his life, only to be pecked in the eye by an eagle.
The already elderly Master Liang was trembling with anger: "Mr. Cao prides himself on being noble, but he didn't expect to stand up for the eunuch."
"What does the Grand Master mean by this?"
"You don't need to dress up. How dare you say that you don't know anything about tonight's events? I don't know when you Qingliu people have fallen into trouble and got involved with that guy Xiao Yan."
"The Grand Master is joking. They are all doing errands for His Majesty. People who serve as officials in the court are not divided into different schools. As long as they can serve the country and the people, why should they be willing to degenerate?"
"You!" Taishi Liang said angrily: "You are shameless!"
Cao Dejiang smiled humbly: "The grand master is so complimentary."
Grand Master Liang was so angry that he almost lost his breath. He pointed at Cao Dejiang, who had no access to oil and salt, with trembling hands, then flicked his sleeves and turned around to leave.
The two of them spoke in a low voice. Cui Lin led the people behind him and just came over after talking to the second prince. When he saw Grand Master Liang leaving in anger, he moved closer to Cao Dejiang.
"Mr. Cao, what's wrong with Grand Master Liang?"
Cao Dejiang put his hands in his sleeves, frowned and sighed softly: "Maybe he feels sorry for what the Lu family did."
"After tonight, Lu Chongyuan may not have another chance to escape. Grand Master Liang originally wanted him to take over, but who would have thought that his many years of hard work would be ruined in one day? It is inevitable that he will have anger in his heart..."
He didn't look at Cui Lin's ugly face, but was worried: "I've been having a lot of trouble all night, and I don't know what's going on outside. I have to leave the palace first. Lord Cui can do his own thing."
Cao Dejiang took a few steps forward, and when he turned his back on the person behind him, he directly crossed his face.
Xiao Yan, that bastard, taught him a little bastard thing, and he still has to take the blame for them at a very old age.
He regretted it so much that he thought Xiao Yan was a righteous man and accepted his favor.
Who would have thought that this bullshit favor would cost him his life! !
Cui Lin didn't know what Cao Dejiang was thinking, but he clenched his fists in anger because of what he said before leaving.
The aristocratic family is one. Although the Lu family was the leader before, it was because everyone knew that Lu Chongyuan was the one that Grand Master Liang was optimistic about taking over. After he retired, the position of Grand Master could not be left aside and he could only stay with the aristocratic family, so that the aristocratic family could continue to control the court. Taishi Liang was optimistic about Lu Chongyuan.
In recent years, Lu Chongyuan has been able to sit in the position of Zhongshu Ling. Of course, he has his own reasons. Among them, he also has the help of the Liang family. In addition, the Lu family has a queen, a prince, and is close to Emperor An. The other families have no influence on the Lu family. Highly respected.
But now things are happening frequently in the Lu family, Empress Lu and the fourth prince have also been disabled, Lu Chongyuan has lost the emperor's heart, and the two sons of the Lu family have all been disabled. Cui Lin secretly contacted Grand Master Liang and wanted him to help him, but Lu Chongyuan lost his Zhongshu ordered Hou to grab that position.
Unexpectedly, Grand Master Liang was unwilling to help him at all. He was distant and indifferent to him, and the court was even less willing to deal with him. The vacant post of Zhongshu, half a month later, fell in vain to a person who no one had ever cared about. , would rather let others take advantage than let him.
The second prince whispered: "Mr. Cui, what's wrong with you?"
Cui Lin sneered: "What can I do? I just think someone is blind and refuses to look back even though he is blind and hits the south wall to death."
He wanted to see who the Liang family could rely on after Lu Chongyuan died and the Lu family was gone.
That old man, Grand Master Liang, is so old that he is about to become an official. He knows that something is going on with the Lu family but still dares to treat him so coldly. There will always be times when the Liang family begs him!
The Lu family can never stand up this time!
Cui Lin turned his eyes slightly, turned towards the second prince and said:
"I will find a way to have people check the Lu family to see what they are covering up. Go to the prison and tell the fourth prince that there was a breach in the Fengxi Palace tonight, and the queen was seriously injured and almost died. The Lu family wants to put Empress Lu at risk. Damn it, see if you can learn anything from the fourth prince’s mouth.”
Cui Lin was a little dissatisfied when he saw that the second prince looked somewhat disgraced.
"Last time, His Highness took matters into his own hands and caused trouble at Lingyun Temple. This time, I finally got this opportunity, so please don't make any mistakes again, otherwise I will have difficulty explaining to the other companies."
"His Highness is never the only choice in aristocratic families. Your Highness should understand."
