    Chapter 70

    Lord Lu Haolu, the Minister of Guanglu Temple, has been very agitated recently. This is what happened.

    Yesterday, my housekeeper reported something to He. His eldest son caused trouble in Yanhong Mansion. He didn’t like any of the carefully selected courtesans, but he fell in love with the little maid who came to bring tea and water, and insisted on taking her as his concubine.

    However, this maid did not sign a deed of sale, that is, she was free. She just came out to make a living to supplement the family’s income because her family was in dire straits.Seeing her little white flower-like life experience and appearance, Lu Wei aroused the desire for protection in his heart, and his masculinity emerged spontaneously. He vowed to give the little maid a home, and from then on, he would follow him and live a life of prosperity and prosperity.

    The little maid was a spirited person who would rather die than give in. At that time, Lu Wei, for some reason, got drunk and carried the little maid into the inner room and forced her body.Afterwards, just as Lu Wei was about to hold the soft jade in his arms for a while, the little maid pushed him away and jumped from the second floor window. When others arrived, she had already lost her breath.

    This matter should have been reported to the government, but because Lu Wei was the eldest son of the Minister of Guanglu Temple, and Lu Wei had always had many friends and cronies, even if it was reported, Dali Temple could not immediately resolve the case, so it was suppressed.

    It was late at night, and most of the people in Yanhonglou were in Wenrou Township, so there were not many people who witnessed the scene. In addition, Lu Wei spent a lot of money to keep it secret. In the end, the incident was reduced to a minor matter.

    Mr. Lu only found out about this recently, or through someone else.

    This other person is a retainer of the General’s Mansion.

    Mr. Lu belongs to the prince’s faction, but the General’s Mansion does not belong to any of the prince’s factions, and has a neutral stance. Old General Rong holds the tiger talisman given by the late emperor, and is feared by many people. However, Old General Rong has outstanding military achievements and is loyal. He has been unable to make any mistakes for so many years. The emperor has never shown any intention to suppress him, and there are many courtiers who flatter him.

    After learning about this matter, Mr. Lu was very upset. After all, the fewer people knew about this scandal, the better, not to mention that his eldest son had reached the right age and it was time to take the imperial examination. For the sake of his future career, such a stain must be erased as soon as possible.

    At the same time, he hated his improper upbringing and raising a son who ruined the family, so he banned Lu Wei for three months.

    However, he was a little confused. How could the General’s Mansion, which never liked to deal with powerful ministers, deliberately let out a retainer to inform him of this matter?

    With he’s handle, there must be something up his sleeve.

    When did the General’s Mansion and the East Palace have a rift?

    Could it be related to the prince’s recent secret return to the capital?

    As he expected, within a few days, someone from the General’s Office sent a message, asking Mr. Lu to go to the teahouse in the west of the city to talk.

    When Mr. Lu arrived, he only saw a game of chess placed in the cool breeze pavilion, and a figure standing in the wind outlet. His crow-green robes swayed in the wind, and his ink-colored silk hair reached to his waist and was tied up by a small white jade hairpin. His back was just a figure, Xiao Xiao solemnly, cheerful and clear.

    Mr. Lu secretly sighed, no wonder the world always said that “the Rong family has two walls”. In the world, I am afraid that only the prince can compete with the one in the East Palace.

    But that back view revealed a deep loneliness that had never existed before.

    Mr. Lu shook his head. Since ancient times, heroes have been saddened by beauty.

    He has already guessed the meaning behind the prince’s repeated efforts to lure him here.

    Rong Jue turned around with a perfect smile on her lips:

    “Master Lu, please.”

    When Mr. Lu took his seat, Rong Jue sat down with a puff of sleeves.

    The maid who appeared at some unknown time served the tea respectfully. Rong Jue gently opened the lid of the bone china cup and took a sip.

    Lu Hao also took the tea cup and smelled a strong aroma.

    “Wuyi red robe, the fragrance of rock bones and flowers, where did the prince get such good tea?”

    Wuyi red robes have always been supplied only to the royal family, or directly to the royal family. He is familiar with it because he is a close confidant of the prince. What does the prince mean by being so unabashed at this moment?

    “Of course it’s Wuyi Mountain.”

    Rong Jue gave the most official answer and took out the black and white chess pieces, “What piece does Mr. Lu hold?”

    Lu Hao took the black piece, and Rong Jue held the white piece. Both of them were thinking.

    After a while, Lu Hao put the sunspot in his hand back, “The prince is very thoughtful, and even though I swallowed several pieces, he still managed to keep his pace and accumulate experience. It turns out that the prince has already understood the whole situation, and all my calculations are in the eyes of the prince. In this round, I admit defeat.”

    Rong Jue put away the chess pieces happily and said:

    “Master Lu, if you lose in the chess game, you can play again. There are some things that you should think twice before acting. What do you think?”

    The author has something to say: Rong·XinShu·Jue is online.
