NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 72 Send someone
When the news of Zhou Xinghua's death reached Capital City, all the big and small families were shocked.
Some well-informed people knew that King Chu was furious when he learned the news that night, and everyone in the entire palace heard King Chu's roar!
"Check, check for me, a dignified county guard actually drowned in the lake? Do you think others are fools?
This king must send someone to Huiyang County to investigate this matter and give an explanation to the people of Huiyang County! "
Li Yuan's roaring words in the palace were conveyed intact to the ears of each family.
That night, the news that King Chu invited Lu Changming to enter the palace was also spread.
The eyes and ears of many forces have seen Lu Changming enter the palace.
In the lobby of the palace, the anger on Li Yuan's face had not dissipated. When he saw Lu Changming arriving, he reluctantly showed a smile.
"I pay my respects to Your Highness." When Lu Changming saw Li Yuan, he saluted respectfully.
Li Yuanxu helped Lu Changming and motioned for Lu Changming to sit next to him.
"Lu Tongzhi, please get up quickly and take a seat."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Lu Changming said goodbye and stood up, taking a seat at Li Yuan's signal.
At the main seat, Li Yuan asked Lu Changming in a tone of suppressed anger:
"Tongzhi Lu, I will urgently call you to the palace tonight. I have an important matter to discuss with you."
"Your Highness, please speak." Lu Changming lamented in his heart. He knew why King Chu asked him to come, and others must also understand what King Chu meant when he asked him to come.
Li Yuan stopped suppressing his anger and stood up angrily. The anger on his face was undisguised, "Lu Tongzhike got the news that Zhou Xinghua, Commander Zhou, fell into the lake and died."
"Wei Chen heard about it."
"Do you think this is credible?" Li Yuan stared at Lu Changming with angry eyes.
Facing Li Yuan's angry eyes, Lu Changming did not dare to say the words he wanted to evade, so he could only lower his head and say:
"This seems very strange."
Lu Changming's answer made Li Yuan somewhat satisfied. He put away his angry eyes, sighed and came to Lu Changming, and said in a sincere tone:
"According to the news, some people say that three major forces attacked and killed Governor Zhou, others said that the princess attacked and killed Governor Zhou, and some said that Governor Zhou encountered ghosts and gods. Now the people in Huiyang County are panicked and there are rumors everywhere. If this matter is not investigated clearly, , the people’s hearts are not at peace, and my king’s heart is not at peace either.
In Dufu City, you and Magistrate Mo are my trusted ministers. The only people I can trust are you. "
Li Yuan walked up to Lu Changming. As long as Lu Changming raised his head slightly, he could see Li Yuan's eyes full of trust.
"Therefore, I want to send you to temporarily serve as the governor of Huiyang County to thoroughly investigate this matter and find out who is the murderer. I will never let it go!"
"this……"
Lu Changming stood up quickly, lowered his head and bowed to Li Yuan:
"Weichen is very grateful for His Highness's trust, but Weichen knows that his abilities are limited, and he is worried that he will not be able to fulfill His Highness's instructions and live up to His Highness' high expectations. If His Highness misses the opportunity to investigate, Weichen will become a sinner."
Seeing Lu Changming's refusal, Li Yuan was not angry. Instead, he smiled kindly and said:
"Tongzhi Lu, there is no need to disturb you. I am also discussing with you. There is no need to reply immediately. You should go back and think about it first."
"This..." Lu Changming raised his head and looked embarrassed, but when he saw Li Yuan's clear attitude of seeing off the guests, he sighed heavily in his heart.
"Thank you for your appreciation, Your Highness. I will take my leave."
Lu Changming could only resign.
"It's late at night, Lu Tongzhi, have a good trip."
Li Yuan saw Lu Changming out of the lobby very kindly.
After watching Lu Changming leave, Li Yuan turned to Nangong Xiyue who was standing aside and said:
"Xiyue, you are now sending a message to the outside world, saying that the king plans to let Lu Changming take up the post of governor of Huiyang County to investigate the cause of Zhou Xinghua's death."
"yes!"
Nangong Xiyue's eyes were as bright as the bright moon in the night sky, she nodded and left quickly.
This news spread to various places as Lu Changming left the palace.
……………………
The lights in the Lu Mansion were brightly lit, and all the senior officials gathered together to discuss. Lu Changming, the leader, had a solemn expression, and others also had solemn expressions.
"Master, I think it is a good thing that King Chu asked us to go to Huiyang County." A senior member of the Lu family agreed.
As soon as the words came out, many people agreed.
"I agree. Our Lu family is currently in an awkward situation in Dufucheng. The previous cooperation with Mr. Ximen has already displeased the King of Chu. Although the King of Chu has never taken action against us, as long as the Lu family is still in Dufucheng, what will happen if the Lu family is still in Dufucheng?" King Tianchu will always be in trouble when he thinks about this."
"That's right, if we go to Huiyang County and rely on our relationship with Master Ximen to help them deal with Chu Qingyan, Huiyang County will belong to our Lu family."
"We can also help Yuan Hua take revenge."
Everyone said this one after another, and most of them agreed.
But there are also objections, and some people are still relatively sober:
"No, if we stay in Dufu City, even if we are in a bad situation, we will be fine, but if we go to Huiyang County, our lives will be in danger.
The three major forces dare to kill Zhou Xinghua, but Chu Qingyan doesn't dare to attack us. It's best if we don't interfere in their struggle. If we are not careful, the Lu family will be over. "
"Yes, although the capital city is suppressed, it is better to be at ease. Huiyang County is too dangerous."
Someone immediately retorted:
"If we don't interfere now, Chu Qingyan won't deal with us in the future?
Don't forget, we have already enmity with Chu Qingyan. We will go to Huiyang County to help the three major forces to deal with Chu Qingyan's last to eliminate future troubles. "
"But going to Huiyang County is extremely dangerous."
"Danger, do anything that is not dangerous!"
An argument soon ensued.
When Lu Changming saw that everyone in the Lu family was actually quarreling over this matter, Lu Changming was already irritated, and a surge of anger surged up:
"Quiet, everyone!"
Everyone fell silent after hearing Lu Changming's angry rebuke from the main seat.
"Do you think we still have the right to choose? King Chu has decided to send me there. We have no choice but to go to Huiyang County."
Lu Changming knew very well why King Chu specially summoned him tonight, it was to give a signal.
Let yourself go home and think about it?
hehe!
What to consider?
Others have already thought about it for you.
Sure enough, outside the lobby, Lu Qingyan ran in with a happy face.
"Father, Aolong has sent a message."
"well!"
Lu Changming let out a long sigh.
"Those who are willing will follow me to Huiyang County, and those who are unwilling will stay in Dufu City.
In addition, he took a group of younger clan children away and hid them for a period of time. "
