Views:

Su Donglou and Duan Tingxuan looked at each other, and after a while they both laughed together and said, "This is what really makes the onlookers clear. The two of us boasted of our ingenuity, but now the authorities are bewildered."

Su Nuannuan smiled and said: "If you only care about it, you will be in chaos. Thinking of me as a weak woman, it is too dangerous to go deep into the tiger's den. In fact, things may not be as bad as you said. I think Lu Fengyu is vicious and sinister, but because of He has mental cleanliness, so he can't be regarded as a dangerous person... "

Before he finished speaking, Su Donglou asked in confusion: "What is...spirit... cleanliness?"

"It's just...he doesn't like to kill people. This is called mental cleanliness. He doesn't want to stain his hands with blood." Su Nuannuan didn't know how to explain it, but when she said this, Su Donglou understood and nodded. Said: "In this way, it is true that not only does he not kill people himself, of course, he is a frail scholar, and he can't kill people either. However, after he has the power, he has never issued any order to kill people from his mouth."

Duan Tingxuan sneered and said: "He thinks this is not counted as murder? How naive and naive. He did not know how many people were indirectly killed by the schemes he made for the King of Xiangyang. Not to mention anything else, just talk about the case of Duke Ping, how many people died People? Isn’t it all his fault?”

Su Donglou laughed and said, "I've said that to him before, but he said that he was just making suggestions, and the ones who made orders and executed them were others, so it has nothing to do with him."

"What does he mean to say, is the King of Xiangyang who hurt people? He doesn't shy away from it at all? King Xiangyang still trusts him so much?" Su Nuannuan was shocked: What kind of strange things are these two? Secretly having an affair, right

Su Donglou stopped smiling, and said seriously: "Yes, the prince knows all these remarks, but he also said it. As long as Lu Fengyu makes suggestions, it's all up to you to adopt or not. So you should understand that this guy is in the prince's heart I'd rather bear the sins myself than fulfill that guy's spirit... Cleanliness, right?"

Duan Tingxuan shook his head and said: "The King of Xiangyang is definitely not a broad-minded person. It is natural that he needs Lu Fengyu's assistance in planning now. But once he really succeeds in his plot, think about the past. He will definitely have suspicions against Lu Fengyu. It is ridiculous I fantasize about the merits of the dragon, but I don't know that once his master succeeds, he will be the first to be eradicated."

Su Nuannuan said: "His fate is not in our concern. The King of Xiangyang is absolutely impossible to succeed. Let's continue the original topic, I just want to ask Donglou, you said that Lu Fengyu tastes like life, and even treats food more than food. Lives matter. Is this true?"

"Of course it's true. Madam sister-in-law also has a deep understanding of this? The first time that guy met you, he rushed into the kitchen to eat puffer fish noodles. He knows that puffer fish is highly poisonous, and this is my other courtyard." , I don’t care about it, just this. Isn’t it enough to explain the problem?”

Su Nuannuan also laughed and said: "Yeah, why did I forget this one? If that's the case, it's easy to handle. I'll use some tricks at that time, and I'm not afraid that I won't be able to take him down. Maybe he's popular, Even if you know my true identity, you will betray me for the food."

"This... shouldn't be possible, right? What that guy is most passionate about is Conglong Gong."

Su Donglou frowned, he thought Su Nuannuan was too optimistic. But Su Nuannuan said: "Everyone will give their hobbies a corresponding status. The so-called merit of being a dragon is power. You have been in touch with Lu Fengyu for so long. In your heart, you feel that he is a food lover. Put it first? Or put power first?"

Su Donglou recalled it carefully, and at a loss, he murmured: "I was a little dazed by Mrs. Sister-in-law's reminder. He...should put food first, right? I haven't seen him being keen on it. What kind of power? It's just... This guy always uses all kinds of jokes to talk about Conglong's merits, which shows that he also attaches great importance to this, but he is obviously not keen on power, and always thinks about Conglong's merits What are you doing?"

"Look, this is another breakthrough." Su Nuannuan slapped the table happily: "So, Lu Fengyu can be a poisonous snake, but he is definitely not an egg without seams... Well! It seems that this metaphor is a bit wrong, I am It’s not a fly. Oh, don’t worry, in short, the brave wins when we meet on a narrow road. Let me compare the power of the king of Xiangyang with the food, and see which one is the most important in the heart of that poisonous snake.”

Su Donglou was silent. What else could he say now? Suddenly, Duan Tingxuan said solemnly: "Forget it, let's do as Nuan Nuan said, but there is one thing, I want to go there with Nuan Nuan, after all we are husband and wife, no one will be Lu Fengyu's cook, so we are forced to be husband and wife reason for separation."

"That's okay." Su Donglou is not a procrastinator either. Now that the matter is settled, he is going to leave to make arrangements, but Duan Tingxuan stops him, shows him the white stone, and tells him the poem he guessed Once again, and finally asked him if he had any clues

Su Donglou said: "I used to live in Hangzhou, and I really don't know much about Suzhou. It's just that I came here with the prince for the past two months, so I stayed in Mingyu Bieyuan. I really can't think of any clues for a while, but It’s okay, I’ll think about it when I go back, maybe I’ll get something. In addition, I’ll send two more reliable people to Yuelu Mountain to investigate quietly, and if there’s any clue there, I’m sure to get it for you.”

And so it was settled. On the third day after arriving, Su Nuannuan and Duan Tingxuan brought two small bundles to report to the Palace of the Palace. A servant led them into the courtyard where Lu Fengyu lived, and received several sympathetic looks on the way.

Siping was left in the Mingyu Bieyuan, and his opponent was someone like Lu Fengyu, who would easily reveal his flaws if he was not careful, so after thinking twice, Duan Tingxuan and Su Nuannuan decisively dumped the servants, although Siping insisted that His acting skills are no worse than that of Lord Hou.

Entering the yard, the servant handed them over to a woman in charge in the yard, and then left, so the woman said with a smile: "Our master has already ordered you to come with me, and the place to live is next to the small kitchen. , the bedding is brand new, to be honest, I have never seen the master care so much about any of his servants."

"Where's your lord?" Su Nuannuan looked around, but she didn't see Lu Fengyu, so she heard the old woman laughing: "It's not yet noon, so the lord is naturally doing things in front of the lord, and he will come back at noon, saying that he wants to let the lady Show off your skills, if you do well, he will reward you."

Su Nuannuan sneered and said, "I never give rewards for cooking. I cook as I like. If the master likes it, I will eat it. If I don't like it, I will leave. Just give rewards whatever you want." After the words fell, Seeing the woman looking over in amazement, it took a long time to turn cold and said: "The lady is just a cook, so it's not good to be so proud. Although our master is gentle, he will not be angry with a cook."
