Chang’an’s First Beauty

Chapter 69: (don't jump)

Views:

Emperor Cheng Yuan practiced Taoism and completely delegated power. Bai officials dared not to speak out. After all, everyone had seen Ge Tianshi's ability.

Although there is a prince in the DPRK to supervise the country, but the political conflict is like a river that never sleeps.

During this period, the prince placed many people in the DPRK.

Just like Li Di, at a young age, he took over as the prefect of Suzhou.

Although Ren's resignation can be regarded as a transfer from Kyoto, but Suzhou is Shangzhou, Shangzhou's governor, the third-rank rank, and he holds real power, which is enough to see the prince's reuse of him.

After Li Di was promoted, before leaving, he raised the first aunt in the house to be his wife, and gave birth to a son. People in the world are forgetful, and it is not yet winter, and they have already forgotten the last minister of the Ministry of Industry.

Who Shen Wenqi is and who Li Di's wife is, obviously doesn't matter.

In Chang'an in October, there was a heavy snowfall. The snow fell on the ground and turned into ice, which cooled the hearts of too many people.

On the seventh day of October, Zheng Jingzhao resigned due to his poor health and was about to retire and return home. The prince handed over the position of the governor of Jingzhao to Lu Yan, and took the opportunity to promote the descendants of the other two houses of the Lu family.

The Duke's Mansion of Zhenguo knew very well that the Prince's move was his sincerity to win over the Lu family.

After being busy for half a month, Lu Yan took the time to visit Chengyuan.

The flickering candles in the study were reflected on the two of them. He lowered his head and transcribed his submission, while she stood aside to grind.

Lu Yan wrote and said, "If you are tired, you can go to rest, you don't have to wait for me." After that, he raised his head and glanced at Shen Zhen.

As soon as she raised her head, Lu Yan realized that every once in a while, she was rubbing her lower back, her face turned pale, and there was sweat on her forehead.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Lu Yan said.

The voice fell to the ground, Shen Zhen immediately withdrew the hand on his waist, shook his head and said, "Sir, I'm fine."

Lu Yan put down the wolf in his hand, frowned, and said in a low voice, "Come and let me see."

Shen Zhen bit her lip, knowing that he never said a word twice, so she had to bite the bullet and walk over.

The man put his palm on her waist, suddenly thought of the six boards she had endured, and said slowly, "Did the weather get cold recently, and your waist injury has occurred again?" After passing those six boards, I was injured. When the weather changes, there will be a dull pain.

Shen Zhen waved his hand and said the truth: "No, my lord, I'm just here on a small day..."

Lu Yan took a deep look and recalled the records in the medical book, "The menstrual water is not good, and the lower abdomen is full of pain."

However, he still knew at first glance that she also had symptoms of poor menstrual flow.

"Why don't you say it hurts?" Lu Yan looked up at her, and there seemed to be displeasure between his brows.

It is normal for a woman to suffer from lower abdominal pain and low back pain during her menstrual period, but she has a low back injury and cannot be tired.

Shen Zhen bit her lip and paused for a long time before she said, "I'll definitely say it next time, okay?"

Lu Yan pinched his eyebrows, sighed impatiently, took out a jar of medicine from the drawer on the side, and said, "Turn around and I'll give you some medicine."

Shen Zhen's cheeks were slightly red, and she turned around very obediently, untied her skirt, and lifted her tunic, revealing half of her slender, white waist.

The man put medicine on her, looked down at the unbearable waist in front of him, and couldn't help but think of the board used by Jingzhao Mansion to try prisoners... His Adam's apple moved slightly, and he said in a low voice: "When the yali did something to you, it was me who ordered it. , can you blame me?"

Shen Zhen shook his head and said, "I broke the law first, and my lord is just doing things according to the law."

"Also, you are showing mercy to me... I know all this."

Lu Yan's eyes were dark and she arranged her clothes, "Okay, go back and rest, I still have a case file to look at."

"I see."

Shen Zhen nodded and left the study.

It wasn't until the third quarter of the hour that Lu Yan returned to the inner room. Seeing that a candle flame had not been extinguished, he couldn't help but raise the corner of his lips.

Lu Yan lay on the inside and said softly, "You haven't slept yet?"

Shen Zhen grabbed a corner of the quilt and whispered, "Well."

"Waiting for me?" The man's tone was soft, and the corners of his eyes were full of smiles.

Shen Zhen was stunned for a moment, and immediately put her little hand in his palm. She looked like she was saying: I'm waiting for you to come back.

Lu Yan chuckled and grasped it, "Okay, let's sleep."

When she closed her eyes, Lu Yan stared at her for a long time.

Looking back on the first time I saw her, she was only sixteen years old, she was like a blank piece of paper, she couldn't lie, she didn't have deep scheming, she stood there, stunned.

In the blink of an eye, a year has passed, and she has finally learned the ability to bow her head to please people.

To be honest, Lu Yan knew very well that treating her by himself would not be considered good at all. While he asked her to be obedient, he was recklessly enjoying her beauty and body.

Marrying her, he really never thought about it.

So much so that he couldn't tell when he moved that thought that shouldn't be there.

Maybe it was a long time ago, maybe after returning from Yangzhou, maybe when she said she wanted to meet Su Heng...

When she mentioned Su Heng that day, he was extremely angry after hearing it, and asked her to clarify her identity in a cold voice.

Knowing the identity, he and she both understand what these four words mean.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the little girl's eyes immediately turned red.

In fact, he regretted it.

It's just that Zhang Huang in the palm of his hand is at a loss, and no one knows the trembling in his heart.

It was only then that he saw clearly that he was really reluctant to hurt her, and he was even more reluctant to let her follow him forever.

Lu Yan smiled bitterly, it was time for him to pay the price for the three words he could not bear.

In the evening of the next day, Jingzhao Mansion, signed the house.

Lu Yan put away the case file in his hand and was preparing to disperse when he saw Yang Zong and Fu Qi hurried in.

"Sir, something happened to Mrs. Li..."

"What's the matter?" Lu Yan raised his eyes.

"Mrs. Li accidentally killed Inspector Li on her way to Suzhou."

Lu Yan stood up, "What did you say?"

When Shen Jiao left Beijing this time, Lu Yan had sent someone to protect her in private. She originally planned to take her away while she was traveling by water if she didn't want to go to Suzhou.

Fu Qi said in a low voice: "At that time, on the official road, Li Shishi and Mrs. Li were riding in the same carriage. The incident happened suddenly, and we didn't know what happened inside. We only heard a few screams. It was stained with blood... that's why I reacted incorrectly..."

"Where is Shen Yanren!" For murdering a third-rank official, a hanging sentence is light.

"Mrs. Li is fine, just passed out, just..." Fu Qi hesitated for a long time, as if he still had something to say.

"Say!"

"Master, this subordinate wanted to rush to face the crime, but I didn't expect that Master Zhou of Dali Temple was one step ahead of us."

Lu Yan frowned slightly, and said solemnly, "Are you talking about Zhou Shu'an?"

Fu Qi nodded, "Yes, there were people all around at that time, besides the second grandmother of the Li family and the old lady, there were also many servants of the Li family. Lord Zhou rushed out from nowhere, confessed his guilt in public, and knocked out Li. lady."

Lu Yan turned the wrench on his hand and said slowly, "Who took Master Zhou away?"

"People from the penal department."

Lu Yan took a deep breath and said, "Let's go, now go to the Ministry of Punishment."

Arriving at the Prison of the Ministry of Punishment, Lu Yan showed his waist badge and met Zhou Shuan smoothly.

Zhou Shuan sat on the low table, and when he saw Lu Yan, he seemed to say hello to him, "Here you come?"

I have to say that this man in his thirties, no matter if he is wearing an official uniform or a prison uniform, as long as he straightens his back, he will still look vigorous.

Lu Yan walked over, removed the lock for him, and said directly, "I will find a way to transfer you to Jingzhaofu Prison."

"Master Lu doesn't have to do this." Zhou Shuan raised his eyes, "I want to ask Master Lu for another matter."

Lu Yan looked at him and said nothing for a long time.

"When Shen Qi wakes up, take her out of Chang'an for me." Zhou Shuan said without changing his face.

"What about you?" Lu Yan asked.

"I have my own chips to exchange with the prince, and it is not difficult to save my life, and the rest will not bother Lord Lu."

The two of them, one is the governor of Jingzhao, and the other is the minister of Dali Temple. They all know nothing about the court of the Great Jin Dynasty and the laws of the Great Jin Dynasty.

The prison was narrow and damp, and the silver lights on the walls made a "squeaky" sound from time to time.

"Will you regret it?"

In fact, Lu Yan didn't know whether he was asking Zhou Shuan or himself.

Zhou Shuan lowered his head and smiled, and said slowly, "Who knows?"

"What if she wakes up to see you?"

Hearing this, Zhou Shu'an smiled and said, "Not only will she not thank me for her temper, but she will blame me instead."

"So, forget it."
