Chapter 321 Can I Trust You?
"That's right, I can't let you and the young lady get into trouble."
Just as Song Rui was about to leave, Lu Sui suddenly stopped him and said, "Take the sword and stab me in the chest."
"What did you say?" Song Rui thought he had misheard.
"You just said that killing the imperial guards is a serious crime. If I and these imperial guards were chasing Deng Rong together, they were unfortunately killed, and I was unfortunately injured. Besides, the emperor is not a fool. When he calms down, he will definitely think of the tricks behind today's incident." Lu Sui sneered and looked at Song Rui with a cold gaze. "If I stab myself, the direction is wrong, so I need you to come."
Song Rui thought about it carefully and nodded: "I understand, then I have offended the young marquis."
"Ah."
Fortunately, Song Rui had killed many people in the past and knew what kind of force was needed to make the injury look serious but in fact no vital parts were injured.
"Um……"
The moment the knife was pulled out, Lu Sui's chest was immediately stained red with blood.
He immediately held it down, his face pale, and said, "Go quickly."
"Yes."
Just as Lu Sui expected, less than an incense stick of time passed after Song Rui and his colleagues left.
Luan Fengyu arrived with his men.
"Luan, Lord Luan..."
"Young Marquis Lu, what happened to you..." Luan Fengyu looked at Lu Sui, who was sitting on the ground, covered in blood. The next second, he immediately took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and pressed it on his bleeding wound. "What's going on?"
"Lord Luan, can I trust you?" Lu Sui held Luan Fengyu's hand with his backhand.
Luan Fengyu didn't know what had just happened, but judging from the traces of fierce fighting at the scene and the corpses lying on the ground.
The situation just now must have been very dangerous and complicated.
"My people are already handling the affairs of the palace. As for the situation here..." Luan Fengyu paused and said, "As long as Young Marquis Lu tells the truth, I will believe him."
"Lord Luan, I can tell you the truth, but I also have my concerns."
"I understand what Young Marquis Lu means. Although we each have our own duties, one day we will all be the same and hope that the world can be stable." Luan Fengyu's firm gaze fell on Lu Sui's face, "So you can trust me. Of course, if you don't trust me, you can choose to say so."
"Lord Luan is very straightforward. Let me start with the story. I just had a fight with Jiedushi Deng, and at the critical moment, these people all showed up. I didn't expect that they were the imperial guards. And I was unfortunately stabbed due to exhaustion." What Lu Sui said before was true, only the last sentence was false.
"Jiedushi Deng did not come back to attend the New Year's Eve banquet. Why would he come?"
Seeing the surprise in Luan Fengyu's eyes, Lu Sui knew that he probably didn't know about the affair between Jiedushi Deng and the Queen.
But even if he knew, he wouldn't show it in front of me.
Lu Sui naturally shook his head and said, "I don't know, but now that I have made this mistake, if Lord Luan takes me to see the emperor, I will accept it."
After Luan Fengyu stared at Lu Sui for a few seconds, he turned around and said to his subordinates, "Send two people to escort Young Marquis Lu out first."
"Lord Luan?" Lu Sui didn't expect that Luan Fengyu would let him go.
"When I went to the palace just now, I saw your wife trying her best to treat everyone. Your father, brother, and sister were also trying their best to escort everyone away from the fire scene. You could have stayed out of this, but you stepped forward. So leave today's matter to me. I know how to explain it to the emperor."
"Thank you very much, Master Luan."
Lu Sui didn't have a relationship with him, but before leaving, he couldn't help but remind him: "I don't know what your relationship with Jiedushi Deng is, but he is not a simple person. Lord Luan, remember to be careful."
"Thank you."
After Lu Sui left.
Luan Fengyu stood up, looked at the bodies scattered all over the floor and said, "Deal with them cleanly, don't leave any clues."
"Yes!"
Yuan Buwei realized it was daybreak only after she had treated the last injured person around her.
The fire has been completely extinguished.
The wounded were also carried away and resettled one after another.
"Zhu Xin, Han Er, you two have been busy with me all night. Take your parents-in-law back first. I will talk to the imperial doctors in the Imperial Hospital and then go back."
"Sister-in-law, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. I can hold on."
"it is good."
Lu Han wanted to stay and continue helping, but his parents were old, and their bodies would not be able to take it if he didn't go back to rest.
"Han'er, you guys go back first, I'll follow the young lady." Seeing that Lu Sui was not there, Xie Linan took the initiative to step forward.
"Then I'll escort everyone back first. I'll come over after we get home." Lu Bing walked up and said.
"Okay, let's do it."
After Yuan Buwei watched them leave, she and Xie Linan went to the main hall.
Fortunately, the fire was put out in time last night and did not spread into the hall.
"Bu Wei."
The imperial concubine and her daughter were busy all night saving people.
"The injured outside have been carried away. Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, the Emperor, the Queen, and Princess Jinghe, are they all right?" Yuan Buwei asked.
"They are fine. We sent them back in the second half of the night. It's just that the queen was a little frightened yesterday." After looking around, the imperial concubine leaned close to Yuan Buwei and whispered, "I felt her pulse and it seemed that she had some miscarriage. I said I would prescribe some miscarriage-maintaining medicine for her, but she said no, she already has some in the palace. It seems that she doesn't want to keep the child."
Yuan Buwei lowered her head and thought for a moment before saying, "Not necessarily. Although I don't know her pulse, I saw that she looked pretty good yesterday, much better than before. The more stable the baby is, the more reluctant she will be to give it up."
"Let's not get involved in her affairs. Bu Wei, it's getting late. You should go home first. Fu'er and I know the situation of the injured anyway. I will negotiate with the Imperial Hospital."
"Yes, Master, it was a good thing that you stepped forward in time yesterday to prevent more people from getting hurt. You should go back first." Nangong Fu also advised.
In fact, Yuan Buwei has always been thinking about Lu Sui in her heart.
I always feel a sense of uneasiness.
Since both of them said so, she did not refuse: "Then thank you for your help, Imperial Concubine and the Third Princess."
When Yuan Buwei left the palace, Lu Han had not left yet.
So everyone got on the carriage and went home.
"Oh my, I was really scared by the scene yesterday. Butler Ye, go get some sleeve leaves and ask the kitchen to cook some pork trotter noodles. We have to get rid of the bad luck."
As soon as she entered the mansion, the wife of the Marquis of Wanning began to make arrangements: "By the way, today is the first day of the new year. Oh, I am also preparing red envelopes for the children."
"Madam, we have been busy all night. At least go back to the room and change your clothes. We can talk about other things in the afternoon." After saying this, Marquis Wan Ning took his wife and left.
"You guys should go back to your room and rest. You've been busy all day."
"it is good."
Yuan Buwei watched everyone leave before she twisted her neck and slowly walked towards her own yard.
As soon as I walked into the yard, I saw Li Yan and Ning Xingzhou standing in the yard and they jumped up suddenly.
