(2-in-1)

Another point that puzzled Lin Jue was: if the prince suspected that Lu Feiming and Concubine Rong were having an affair, or even had a child, even if he would not publicize the matter because he wanted to keep the family scandal in public, his attitude towards Concubine Rong would definitely be

It was extremely cold. In fact, Concubine Rong's status did not decrease, nor did she fall out of favor. After Guo Chong ascended the throne, he also gave her the title of Imperial Concubine, which was an extremely honorable matter. Even for the sake of the Queen Mother.

, Guo Chong is unlikely to endure such humiliation. Who can be so open-minded in a different place? This is obviously unhuman and logical.

Concubine Rong deliberately brought this matter to the prince. In Lin Jue's view, it was obviously to hide something.

"Concubine Rong, according to you, who did this? Does it sound like it was the prince?" Lin Jue asked in a deep voice.

Wei Yourong's eyes flickered and she wiped her tears and said: "I...I don't know, I don't know anything. How could I know who it is? Maybe...maybe it's him. Apart from him, I can't think of anyone else."

After doing this, Lu Feiming has no quarrels with anyone and no enemies, so who would want to kill him? I really can’t understand."

Lin Jue frowned and said softly: "Concubine Rong, do you want to hear my thoughts? I think there is another mystery."

Wei Yourong said in a panic: "What do you know?"

Lin Jue shook his head and said: "It's just a guess. Do you want to hear it?"

Wei Yourong said obediently: "You can just say what you want. You don't know the inside story, but you can't make random guesses. The court has not found out who the murderer is after three years of investigation, so how can you guess it?"

"

Lin Jue looked at Concubine Rong and became even more sure that there was something fishy about this matter. Based on the relationship between Wei Yourong and Lu Feiming, she should really want to know the truth about Lu Feiming's death. However, her performance seemed to be unreasonable.

He was willing to listen to Lin Jue mention this matter more and wanted to explain it away vaguely. This only increased Lin Jue's suspicion.

"As it relates to the death of Lu Wu's father, I have to think more about it. I think it is unlikely that the prince will kill Lu Feiming. If the prince goes to the point of killing people, doesn't it mean that he already knows the whole inside story. But what about the empress?

Can you live in peace? And if the prince takes action, he will definitely eradicate the roots with the fury of thunder. How can Mrs. Lu escape from the capital with Lu Wu and two younger children?" Lin Jue said in a deep voice.

Wei Yourong panicked and shouted: "How do I know? You ask me who should I ask? I said, I am just guessing. I can only suspect that it was him. As for the doubts you mentioned, how do I know the reasons?

"

Lin Jue said in a deep voice: "Why should Concubine Rong be so excited? I just raised my suspicions, not asking for an explanation. In my opinion, the death of Mr. Lu... is probably a suicide."

"What?" Lu Wu shouted in surprise.

"Suicide? This...I don't know...I don't know if that's the case. What do you think?" Concubine Rong was also a little surprised, but there was some happiness in her surprise.

"Think about it, Mr. Lu has a deep love for the empress. The empress was in a crisis, so she went to Mr. Lu to find a way. But he couldn't think of a good way. In order to save the empress from the crisis, Mr. Lu probably had the only choice

One way is to cut off the possibility of the prince finding out the truth. If the prince finds him and forces him to tell the truth, he may be tortured and it will be difficult to resist. Only one death will be solved once and for all, and this secret will be forever.

Buried in his heart. Although the prince has suspicions, he has no way to prove it, so he can only give up. The empress will be saved." Lin Jue pinched his chin and said.

Concubine Rong and Lu Wu were both silent.

Lin Jue continued: "Given Lu Shilang's infatuation for Concubine Rong, it is reasonable for him to take the huge risk of having a baby for Concubine Rong, and to sacrifice his life for Concubine Rong. He protected Concubine Rong with his death. Concubine felt that this

Isn’t that reasonable?”

Concubine Rong frowned and said: "I...I don't know, maybe...what you said makes sense. It is indeed possible for Lu Feiming to do this. He is indeed sincere to me. If he really committed suicide, I can't completely disbelieve it.

.But if this is the case, my conscience will be greatly disturbed. He treats me like this, and I will repay him in the next life...the next life."

Lin Jue laughed and said softly: "Do you agree with my guess?"

Concubine Rong smacked her lips and said, "I don't really believe it, but your analysis makes sense. I know Lu Feiming. He will indeed do such a thing. Maybe it is really the case..."

"My Majesty is really able to speak to the point. Then I ask your Majesty, if it was suicide, why did Mr. Lu die tragically on the street with more than a dozen stabs in his body? What happened to the fire in the Lu Mansion? He didn't have to think about himself.

His wife and children will be burned to death, right? Where does the so-called reasonableness come from?" Lin Jue sneered.

"This..." Concubine Rong was stunned and speechless. After a while, she said angrily: "You said he committed suicide. I didn't say he committed suicide. Why did you ask me? I said, I don't know what the answer was.

Seriously, what are you forcing me to do?"

Lin Jue sneered and said: "I was just testing your Majesty. Unexpectedly, your Majesty immediately followed my words. Your Majesty didn't seem to be interested in the cause of Lu Shilang's death. In other words, I felt that your Majesty was hiding something."

Concubine, what happened today has reached this point, so why do you have to hide anything? Why not tell them all? Isn’t it uncomfortable to keep those secrets in your heart? Tell it. Lu Wu and I will not spread it, we just want to

Just know the truth of the matter."

Concubine Rong scolded angrily: "What am I hiding? I have told you all the circumstances. I have nothing to hide. If you don't believe me, there is nothing I can do. I have said everything I need to say."

Lin Jue stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky and said softly: "Concubine Rong, there is a god three feet above your head. Minister Lu is watching you in the sky. Have you slept peacefully at night for so many years? Don't you know what you have done?"

Concubine Rong looked up in panic, her eyes full of fear. She suddenly woke up and scolded: "Lin Jue, what are you talking nonsense about? How dare you do this to me? I am the imperial concubine, and what you did today is enough.

The nine tribes have been exterminated."

Lin Jue sneered and said: "Exterminate the nine tribes? Kill your daughter too? You are really cruel. But I believe you can do it, because your heart is indeed cruel. You don't even have a deep love for you."

Even Mr. Lu could kill him ruthlessly, what can't you do?"

"What did you say...?" Concubine Rong froze on the chair, staring at Lin Jue. Her eyes were full of surprise and embarrassment.

"Young Master... what did you say? You just said... that she killed... my father?" Lu Wu looked up at Lin Jue blankly, her mind buzzing. The Young Master's words almost made her feel sad.

She was frightened and stunned. "Lv Wu, my good daughter, don't listen to his nonsense. He is crazy. This man is talking nonsense. Don't believe him." Concubine Rong shouted.

"I wish I was talking nonsense, but what I said is exactly the truth. If you don't want to say it, I will say it for you." Lin Jue sighed and whispered.

Concubine Rong looked at Lin Jue blankly. She felt that Lin Jue was simply a monster. No one knew the secret she had buried in her heart. How could he know it? How did he know it?

Lin Jue began to narrate softly, but Concubine Rong didn't listen to a word. Her thoughts returned to the afternoon in the Zen room in the backyard of Changuang Temple, the afternoon when she met Lu Feiming.

…

The Zen room was very quiet, and Lu Feiming's smile was as warm and handsome as it was many years ago. Concubine Rong and him were sitting there, just like how they often sat opposite each other when they were in love. But their moods were already complete.

different.

Concubine Rong told Lu Feiming that the matter was about to be revealed, and asked Lu Feiming to find a way. Lu Feiming's smile disappeared. He frowned and sat there in silence, thinking like an old man in his twilight years.

"Help me think of a way, Lu Lang. I really can't think of a way. I'm afraid the prince will go to you for questioning soon, and then everything will be over. The child is so much like you that Concubine Mei and the others are also secretly looking for it.

There are clues, the matter will be exposed soon. Lu Lang, please help me, save me." Concubine Rong said these words to Lu Feiming.

Lu Feiming said: "Yourong, I don't know how to help you. I really have no idea this time. But if there is a way, I will naturally help you."

"Yes, there is a way. Lu Lang, there is a way, but I'm afraid you won't agree. I came to you because I have already thought of a way. I'm afraid you won't agree."

"What method, you tell me. But I can do it, I will definitely do it, and I will definitely help you."

"Lu Lang, the prince will go to you and force you to tell the truth, and then he will cut me into pieces. So, you can't say it, you must not say it."

"Don't worry, how could I say it? Wouldn't it hurt both you and me? I won't say it."

"No, you will say that you don't know the prince's methods. No one can survive his methods of extracting confessions. No matter how strong a person is, he can't escape his methods. He will pull out your teeth one by one.

He will smash your fingers into pieces with a hammer. He will use a knife to cut your flesh piece by piece. You can’t stand it. I know you, you will never stand it.”

"...Then what should I do? I really can't stand this. What should I do? Tell me."

"Lu Lang, when things have reached this point, only the dead will not speak. Are you willing to die for me? If you die, he will never be able to ask anything. After much thought, this is the only way."

"...Yourong, you are so cruel, you actually want me to die. Do you have the heart to take my life? I really didn't expect...you would actually want me to die."

"Lu Lang, I'm not cruel, I'm thinking about the overall situation. For your son, for my daughter, for me and my Wei family, for your wife, children. I could have died, but I died,

Without his mother, Guo Hao will be bullied by others, and he may not be able to save his life in the future. As long as I am here, no one will dare to bully him. So if I can't die, then the only one who will die is you. If you don't do it for me,

, can you die for your son? If the truth is revealed, both he and I will be cut into pieces. Think about it, is this reasonable? "

"..."

"Lu Lang, I know this is difficult, but tell me, is there any other way now? Don't worry, I owe you everything in this life, and I will repay you in the next life with a grass ring. I swear, your wife and children, I

I will order people to take good care of them. I will not let them suffer. If I had any way, why would I come to beg you? Lu Lang, if you think I owe you, you can have my body now, that's all.

It's your regret. Today we will be husband and wife for a day, fulfilling your wish back then. Okay?"

"..."

"Lu Lang, please say something, don't do this. Tell me, what exactly do you think? Are you unwilling to save me? Are you unwilling to save your son? Are you afraid?"

"...Yourong, it's time for me to leave. I'm sorry, I can't promise you. I'm really crazy about you, and I'm willing to do everything for you. But I can't help you this time. It's not that I'm afraid of death, it's inherent in people

I'm not afraid of death at all. If I were afraid, I wouldn't have agreed to do this treasonous thing for you. But I can't die now. Because, I understand, you are just like me to me.

It was a beautiful dream I had. I have been lost for this dream for a long time and lost too much. Do you know? My wife gave birth to another son and a daughter for me. With your Qingping, I have three children.

I was sitting in the back garden, watching them running around among the flowers, watching them laughing, and I knew how happy I was. And my wife Axiu, I married her

, she gave birth to three children for me, and she didn’t blame me when I gave her son to someone else. She only took care of me wholeheartedly and worked hard for me. She also treated Qingping as her own. She never blamed me.

I have done so many unreasonable things for you. Do you know how sorry I feel for her? My life now is not my own, and I am not living for you. I am doing it for Axiu and my three children.

If I die, the children will have no father, and Axiu will have no husband. My family will be gone. In the future, Axiu and the children will have to live on the streets and have to live under the shelter of others. You said you take care of them, but how do you take care of them?

In order to avoid suspicion, I will not go to see them at all. So... Yourong, I can't help you this time. But I promise you, I will resign and leave the capital in a few days. I will go as far as possible to a remote place.

If I go to live in the mountains, the prince will not be able to find me, and there will be no danger."

"...Lu Lang, you..."

"Yourong, I have to go. It's Axiu's birthday today, and I promised to eat longevity noodles with her. The children are also waiting for me to go back. I have to go. I will leave the capital in a few days. Don't worry, I will

I will never appear in the capital again, and there will never be any trouble again. Just take it seriously,"
