Chapter 94: Embarrassed Prince Lu
As he said that, Lu Chengde raised his foot and planned to kick Lu Zhi, but when he kicked it out, he obviously hesitated for a moment. Finally, when it fell on Lu Zhi, his strength was already much lighter. "Uncle Zhi, I'll tell you the matter. Is that what you did for me? Well..."
"There are no outsiders in the hall now, so the eldest son doesn't have to worry about anything. The old slave failed, please punish him severely." Lu Zhi stood there and stood still motionless and replied in a low voice.
"What's wrong with having an outsider? I, Lu Chengde, still cares about this?" Lu Chengde shook his sleeves angrily and sat down again, "But what's the use of me punishing you now? Will this matter not be spread after I punish you?"
"What do you think you should do next? "Lu Zhi bowed slightly, his voice became lighter, "Lu Meng and his family members who failed yesterday are still kneeling outside the yard."
"A group of wastes who have failed to succeed and have more than failure..." Lu Chengde waved his hand angrily, "and they all go down and whip them twenty times before talking about it."
"The eldest son..." Lu Zhi continued in a low voice, "It is indeed a crime of non-war when encountering something like a ghost. If they were beaten for this reason, they would probably not be convinced."
"What if they are not convinced?" Lu Chengde snorted, "Do I need to care?"
"If it's normal, the eldest son doesn't have to care." Lu Zhi said carefully, "But now it's the time when you use people. For those who are not from our Lu family in the city guards, you are still trying to win over the favor of the eldest son, let alone our Lu family's family gave birth to a child?"
"What you said makes sense," Lu Chengde sat down for a while and said, "Then let them go this time."
"The eldest son is wise!" Lu Zhi clasped his fists and bowed a long time, "The eldest son is humble, why worry about the big thing not being accomplished."
After seeing Lu Chengde waved his hand unconsciously, Lu Zhi continued, "So young master, do you want Lu Meng to come in and tell me about what happened last night..."
"No need, I don't want to listen!" Lu Chengde waved his hand without hesitation, "You just want them to do whatever you want..."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Chengde heard a slight footsteps coming from behind him. Then he saw a little maid with a pointed chin walking around the door behind the hall and whispering to Lu Chengde. "Langjun, my wife asked me to say to Langjun,"
As he said that, the little maid cleared her throat and said seriously, "No matter what the reason is, the haunted thing in our family last night has spread. Because the haunted place yesterday was the mourning hall where Xiaolang was, please call these people in and listen to what happened. Otherwise, the spread of rumors may damage your reputation."
"Reputation..." Lu Chengde sneered, "Do I have such a thing?"
"Please be careful!" the little maid replied seriously, "The lady will be unhappy when she hears these words."
"Okay, since your wife said that, then call Lu Meng and the others up." Although Lu Chengde showed a look of disapproval on his face, he still waved to Lu Zhi. "Uncle Zhi, please call someone!"
"Yes, the eldest son!" Lu Zhi nodded calmly to Lu Chengde and walked out of the hall.
"So when will your wife arrive?" Lu Chengde asked the little maid again.
"My wife is already in the quiet room behind the hall." The little maid answered without hesitation.
"You go back and tell your wife, saying that if she wants to hear this ghost story that happened in our family, go outside and listen openly..." Lu Chengde said to the little maid helplessly, "You don't have to hide behind the hall, I'm not that kind..."
"Please be careful!" A cold tone came from the back of the hall, "It's okay for me to follow my husband to stay in the hall, but if I deal with foreign affairs, I will not be able to sit outside with my husband, so as not to make people laugh at the family tradition of our Lu family..."
"Yes, yes!" Lu Chengde turned around with a wry smile and bowed to the back door of the hall, "Thank you for your teachings!"
Although he had promised Lu Zhi would not punish Lu Meng and the others just now, and he knew that his wife Qin Daoyun was listening in the back of the hall, Lu Chengde was listening to Lu Meng and the others telling him how they wanted to go to the mourning hall to burn incense last night, but was besieged by a large number of evil ghosts. Then, when they fought hard and unyielding, he still felt the anger in his heart burning.
"Okay!" When Lu Chengde heard how Lu Yong stayed alone in the mourning hall to cover them, he was besieged by more than a dozen evil ghosts. Then the evil ghost grabbed Lu Yong and flew up into the sky, crossed the roof and landed on the tree outside to hang Lu Yong, he finally couldn't help but slapped the table and shouted loudly. "Shut up all!"
"Young Master, please calm down!" Lu Zhi bent down and said in a voice that was small but everyone could hear, "Now is the critical moment, please be patient and endure! If you encounter something like an evil ghost, it cannot be considered Lu Meng and the others' fault!"
"Do you think I'm angry about this? Wrong, the reason I'm angry is..." Lu Chengde walked to Lu Meng who was kneeling on the ground and kicked him on the shoulder. "Lu Meng, do you treat me as a fool? It's nonsense and nonsense. Lu Yong is indeed very good at fighting, and his skills are also good at home, but is it possible that you say he is willing to exchange your life for yours?"
"Young, damn!" Lu Meng didn't tell him a word, "but I asked them to say this statement, and it has nothing to do with Lu Neng and the others. Please check it out."
"Big Young Master..." Lu Zhi walked up, glanced at Lu Meng who was kneeling on the ground, and whispered to Lu Chengde, "Actually, when they told Lao Nu that this matter last night, they said that Lu Yong was the first to take the lead when retreating, so he left the order, and was captured by a ghost."
"Why do you take the lead when retreating? You might as well say that he was the first to escape." Lu Chengde snorted, "Since that was the case yesterday, why did it change again today?"
"They and Lu Yong are both family generals. Although they are usually a little holiday, they are not a big deal." Lu Zhi whispered, "After all, death is the most important thing, and you don't like to take Lu Yong out for business, young master? Lu Meng and others probably made some changes to please you."
"And if something happened yesterday, it would be unsuitable for our Lu Yong, the general of the Lu family, to leave his companion and escape after encountering a ghost. So Lu Meng changed this statement. Although he was intentional, it was not malicious.
"Malicious, if they really have any malicious intentions..." Lu Chengde snorted, then turned to look at Lu Meng and others kneeling on the ground, "But Uncle Zhi is right. Now is the critical moment, so I will not pursue the matter last night. But..."
Lu Chengde lowered his head and said in a voice that only a few of them could hear, "But I must do what Uncle Zhi told you to do well. Have you heard it..."
"Thank you, Master!" Lu Meng knocked on the ground with a bang, "I will never refuse even if I go through fire and water."
Lu Zhi took two steps forward, almost touching Lu Chengde's ear before whispering, "The old man said what he said yesterday was already told to Lu Meng, and he had already agreed. As long as you start, you will bring dozens of people with you, and you will directly destroy the monk who is against you, the monk..."
Lu Chengde nodded, glanced inside, and whispered, "Now is not the time to talk about these things. Uncle Zhi, please let them go first!"
Just after Lu Zhi took Lu Meng and the others to leave the hall, Lu Chengde heard the curtain behind him slightly ringing, and a familiar footstep came towards him from behind.
"Langjun..." Qin Daoyun came out from the back of the hall with a calm face with the little maid with a pointed chin just now. "What is the so-called secret matter of Langjun's hand that he told the old manager? I wonder if I can tell me about it to my wife?"
"Actually, there is nothing more than some interactions with Li Tang, and some things like instigating the city guards in Jiangzhou. It's not that I want to hide it from you on purpose, but I think it's dirty your ears when I say it." Lu Chengde smiled dryly, "Anyway, you don't like to listen to these, so I didn't tell you."
"Thank you for your considerateness, my husband." Qin Daoyun bowed slightly to Lu Chengde, "Then Daoyun won't ask."
"It's okay, it's okay." Lu Chengde rubbed and jumped up from Hu's bed, "If you say that, I'll be really ashamed..."
"Okay, then I'll go back to the inner house first." Qin Daoyun turned around calmly, and asked unconsciously, "Do you plan to kill Xiaolang when you control Jiangzhou and then kill Xiaolang?"
"Of course it's..." Lu Chengde said a little casually and realized something was wrong. At this time, he turned his face a little embarrassedly, just facing Qin Daoyun's face that was as calm and expressionless as usual.
"It's true." Qin Daoyun nodded slightly, "Actually, husband, you plan to attack last night, but you didn't expect that Lu Yong, who was attacking, would have been killed by a ghost, right?"
