"Lord Su, my lord has a tricky matter here. I've thought about it and found no one more suitable than you, so I want to send you to carry it out. It's a very important matter, and you have to do it yourself."
In Chang Shi's office, Lu Fengyu invited Su Donglou over, and when he saw him enter, he cut straight to the point and directly stated the purpose of inviting him over.
"But I don't know what is so important? Do you really believe me now, sir?"
Su Donglou casually twirled the teacup. What matters? It's all bullshit, when will this poisonous snake, Lu Fengyu, be willing to entrust him with important tasks? If it is really important, most of them are temptations, such as the matter of Pingguo Gong's grain and grass. It's okay to try, but after you tried it, you fucking trusted me. I gritted my teeth and helped you do those bad things, and in the end I was suspected. Dou E didn't deserve such a wrong.
So Su Donglou didn't take these words to heart at all, but unexpectedly at the next moment, Lu Fengyu said in a deep voice: "Help me to kill a person, a person who should have died."
"What do you mean?" Su Donglou raised his head in astonishment: "Where are you going? Who are you going to kill?" I'm going! Has this poisonous snake finally believed in him? Just said a few words of doubts about Duan Tingxuan, and helped him settle a few things, and finally kept the clouds open to see the moonlight
"Go to Shenxianling." Lu Fengyu's expression became more dignified, and he said word by word: "Su Donglou, listen carefully, this is not a temptation, this is the first thing I ask you to do after my lord and I truly trust you. After the matter is completed, in the future...you and I will help the prince achieve a great cause, and wealth and wealth will be at your fingertips."
Su Donglou licked his lips. As soon as the word Shenxianling came out, he knew it was definitely not a temptation. Earlier Duan Tingxuan said that there might be someone they were looking for in Shenxianling, which shows that this is a very important place, but before that. Lu Fengyu had never mentioned this place to him before, and now he is suddenly asked to kill people there, which shows that the other party finally truly trusts him.
Thinking of this, Su Donglou was both excited and nervous. The excited one was that this year's hard work was not in vain, and finally waited for this day; the nervous one was who did Lu Fengyu send him to kill? Can this person be killed? This is different from the case of Ri Ping Guogong that day, the reason why he started it unceremoniously. He just knew about Duan Tingxuan's dealings. At the very least, Duke Ping can save his life and wait for the unjust case to be vindicated. The person who died in that case was either Lu Fengyu's confidant. Either they are greedy people, and they all deserve to die.
But this time today, Lu Fengyu, who has always been unwilling to get blood, explicitly asked him to kill someone, but he didn't know the weight of this person at all. But now is not the time to think about it. The most important thing is to gain the trust of King Xiangyang and Lu Fengyu. So he nodded calmly and said lightly: "Who will kill?"
"Long Pingzhang."
Lu Fengyu said a word. Su Donglou jumped up almost without being startled. He clenched his fists and tried his best to control his emotions. He said in a deep voice, "Long Pingzhang? That Jiangnan Taoist censor? But he..." At this point. He seemed to have suddenly realized, nodded and said: "Understood, no wonder you said you were going to kill a person who should have died. What? Is this person not dead?"
"Yes." Lu Fengyu's usually calm face was unexpectedly a little irritable. Taking a deep breath, he gritted his teeth and said, "That group of trash. Before pushing everyone off the cliff, I don't know how to make sure first. The most important thing is that he didn't fall to his death when he fell off the cliff. What a fate!" It’s just that I won’t let him have future blessings. Now that he knows, he must die. Su Donglou, this matter is extremely important, only success is not allowed, you... understand what I mean?”
"Such words are simply insulting to me." Su Donglou smiled bluntly: "A nerd who has no power to restrain a chicken, is it worth saying that only success is not allowed to fail? Okay, leave it to me. But... News Is it accurate? Are you sure it's Long Pingzhang? Could it be that someone deliberately used this dead man to make a fuss? Be careful of being lured out of the hole."
"In your eyes, I'm so stupid?" Lu Fengyu glared at Su Donglou, but felt quite comforted in his heart, secretly thinking that this fellow could think about this for me, obviously he has no second thoughts. Well! Not trusting him for more than a year seems a bit too much, but be careful when sailing for ten thousand years, this is a business of ransacking and beheading, no matter how careful you are, you can't be too careful.
Thinking about it this way, looking at Su Donglou also felt much pleasing to the eye. The two talked for a while, then Su Donglou left.
Lu Fengyu turned around and was about to clean up the remaining snacks on the plate when he suddenly saw a eunuch coming in from outside the door, saying that it was the King of Xiangyang who had summoned him. He held his forehead and murmured: "Wait a minute, I'll take this The rest of the snacks are finished."
When he came to see the King of Xiangyang, Lu Changshi still had a residue at the corner of his mouth that hadn't been cleaned up, which naturally provoked the prince to laugh at him, and he blushed with embarrassment. For fun?"
Only then did King Xiangyang hold back his laughter, nodded and said: "No, but there is something serious to discuss with the gentleman." After speaking, he handed over a letter and said in a deep voice: "Just take a look, Duan Tingxuan and his wife finally appeared The original shape."
Lu Fengyu's hand that received the letter couldn't help trembling, his mind almost lost control at this moment, shock and fear surged up together.
It's no wonder that he was flustered, once the King of Xiangyang knew the identity of Duan Tingxuan and his wife, he would definitely cut them off. These two people have been by my side for so long, and I didn't realize it. This is a big mistake. Even from now on, the prince will no longer trust him, and the efforts of the past years have been wasted. The most important thing is that he will no longer be able to enjoy Su Nuannuan's delicacies that have not yet been released, how can this not make Lu Fengyu flustered.
Fortunately, the number one think tank of the palace for so many years is not for nothing, and he is still very good at cultivation, so even though his heart is already howling, Lu Fengyu is still calm on the face. After reading the letter, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but said solemnly on his face: "The husband and wife finally appeared. If, as the letter said, Duke Ping really said such things after being drunk, That means that Duan Tingxuan must have obtained some key evidence, and he is sure to vindicate him, otherwise he would never dare to say such a thing."
The King of Xiangyang also said in a deep voice: "That's right. Duan Tingxuan has always been insidious. He went to Niutoushan, but he didn't show up for so long. Even the local officials didn't know where he was. This is definitely not the way to visit his father-in-law. But now They suddenly appeared again, but they didn't deal with anyone. Only Ping Guogong uttered nonsense. I am afraid that some evidence of this matter fell into the hands of their husband and wife. Hehehe! A dignified son of the Hou family did this for the sake of his parents-in-law. I really don't know how much Duan Tingxuan loves his family's Hedong lion."
Lu Fengyu pondered for a while, before he said decisively: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this fire will definitely not catch us. The matter was handled very well that day, all important witnesses have been wiped out, and now the food has already been sold in batches. Nothing went wrong. Even if Duan Tingxuan can track down the whereabouts of that batch of grain, there is no way to lead the fire to us."
King Xiangyang nodded and said, "I know that's the case, but after hearing what you said, I still feel more at ease. Now that I think about it, it's fortunate that I listened to your persuasion that day and didn't hand over the matter of selling grain to Donglou. Duan Tingxuan tracked down Ming Yulou's head, we are afraid that we will lose an arm for nothing."
Lu Fengyu said with a smile: "That's exactly the case. Under the current situation, the power of Ming Yulou is becoming more and more important. The lower official knows that the prince has already trusted Donglou in his heart, but it is only hindering the lower official, so he is cold. The prince Don't worry, I'm not someone who is jealous of the virtuous and capable. As long as I can help the prince achieve great things, I wish the prince could have as many talents as possible. This time, if Donglou can do what I said neatly and without saying anything, in the future he will be Xiaguan's brother, Xiaguan and he are willing to become the prince's mind and arm, and conspire with the world."
"Okay, well said." King Xiangyang nodded again and again, with a look of appreciation in his eyes: "This king likes your calm and intelligent character. If this king gets what he wants in the future, he will definitely live up to you."
Coming out of King Xiangyang's study, Lu Fengyu no longer had the calm and impassioned look he had in front of King Xiangyang: there was another pair of prince and wife on Niutoushan, making this matter even more confusing. In the end, which couple is the real one, the couple here in the south of the Yangtze River or the couple in Niutoushan? It seems that because they are afraid of being suspicious, the Shizi and his wife appear over there, just to deceive others. But if that's the case, why didn't it show up sooner? If it is said that Duan Tingxuan and Su Donglou colluded, they knew that they had already begun to doubt, so they arranged such an outing, then they are too stupid, right? This is simply no money here, and it also exposed Su Donglou. Would the guy who was called a fox by the big shots in the court do such a stupid thing
Rao Lu Fengyu is extremely intelligent, at this moment, he only felt some pain in his head being twisted around, so he simply shook his head and stopped thinking about it, secretly thinking, everything depends on Su Donglou's performance, whether he is loyal or vacillating Not sure, this time things will definitely be tested.
Hangzhou is not far from Suzhou. Su Donglou did not take a boat, but came to Suzhou alone.
He dismounted at the contact point given by Lu Fengyu, looked at the lush mountains, took a deep breath, secretly clenched his fists, then turned around and looked around, and sure enough, he saw a shed in the distance, and left past. Today is hot, and there are people on both sides of the mountain road who set up awnings to sell some tea and snacks for passers-by to quench their thirst from the heat.
Su Donglou went into the tea shed and sat down, his gaze passed over the woman selling tea, he saw that this woman was quite attractive, but she just sat lazily on the chair, and didn't greet Su Donglou when he came in. To himself, he said impatiently: "The tea is over there, pour it yourself, don't expect my old lady to get up and serve others."
