Second marriage to the regent

Chapter 9 Morality
Seeing that the child was out of breath from exhaustion, Mr. Lu said in a low voice: "I tell you to eat less and move more, but you don't listen. You can't even carry a person."

The child raised his head and looked at Mr. Lu in surprise, his eyes full of innocence, as if he was roaring: I am still a child!

"Save people first." Su Junxi reminded.

Mr. Lu walked up to him, took the man's arm and said, "Let me show you my skills."

There is a click sound, crisp and sweet.

He twisted to the waist.

"Hey, my waist!" Mr. Lu let go of the man's hand and held his waist with both hands.

"Master, are you alright?"

Two disciples quickly stepped forward to ask.

Mr. Lu held his waist and walked slowly towards the house: "Master, it's okay. You two can carry him in."

The two looked at each other and dragged the person inside.

After an hour of treatment, the bleeding stopped, but the person was still in a coma.

"Master, how is he?" Su Junxi must get useful information from him.

The identity of the person who assassinated him was definitely not simple. If someone could commit a crime blatantly in Kyoto, the mastermind must be from Kyoto. She must inform Duke Anguo of the matter as soon as possible.

Mr. Lu seemed to see the worry in Su Junxi's eyes, and told her: "This person's life is not in danger. I know that you have something important to do, so go back."

Su Junxi knew that this was not the time for Mr. Lu to reminisce about the past, so he bowed and left: "Disciple, please leave. I will come to visit you another day."

Looking at Su Junxi's leaving figure, Mr. Lu sighed deeply: "Poor child."

The child suddenly appeared with the potion. Seeing Mr. Lu's sad face, he asked, "Master, do you want to drink it again?"

Mr. Lu looked straight ahead: "Is there any more silver?"

The child shook his head, then glanced at the unconscious man on the bed: "He has it."

The master and disciple's eyes fell on the man, showing a wicked smile.

Not long after Su Junxi got married, Mr. Lu went out to travel and stopped teaching, so he naturally lost his income.

He took in the children during his travels and made a living by selling some medicinal herbs.

"Master, isn't it a bit immoral for us to do this?" The child said something inappropriate, but the joy in his eyes could not be hidden.

Mr. Lu weighed his money bag and said without any guilt: "What's so immoral? This is the life-saving money he has to deal with!"

Then he threw a piece of broken silver to the child: "Go and buy the best daughter's red for your teacher! I'll give you the rest."

The child took the money and ran out of the house without looking back.

Mr. Lu turned around and saw that the person on the bed had sat up at some point. He was frightened and held his chest and said, "You kid, you don't say a word even when you wake up. I'm scared to death."

"Do you know that I am..."

Before the man could say anything, Mr. Lu interrupted him: "I don't know. I'm not interested either. Just treat this money as being spent to save your life. Now that you're awake, let's go!"

It was almost dinner time, and he didn't want to open another mouth to eat.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Mr. Lu said this, the man lay flat with an expressionless face.

"You kid, what do you mean?" Mr. Lu stepped forward anxiously and asked.

"Save people until the end." The man said calmly. "I can't save you." Mr. Lu retorted arrogantly.

"Give me back the money bag." The man stretched out his hand.

"Just lie down alive." Mr. Lu put his hands on his chest, then left after saying a few words.

Yongning Palace

The Tang family had been kneeling in Yongning Palace for more than two hours. When Su Junxi arrived, they saw that everyone present had different expressions and it was difficult to guess their thoughts.

"Marquis Su of Jingan, please see the Queen."

The Queen held her forehead with her hand, raised her eyes and glanced at Su Junxi, and then snorted coldly: "Ms. Su, do you know your guilt?"

Hearing the Queen's tone, she knew that these people had brought disaster on her head. She pretended to be puzzled and replied: "I don't know what the crime is, but I would like to ask the Queen to tell me something."

After hearing this, the empress sat up straight with the help of her maid, and then she looked at her seriously and said: "Just now, the Marquis of Jingan Ye has told me the whole story. Since you don't know anything about it, let me know." It doesn’t hurt for you to hear what Mr. Ye just said again.”

"This..." When Ye heard that he wanted to tell Su Junxi what he just said, his eyes wandered with guilt.

Su Junxi looked at Mrs. Ye with a confused look on her face: "Mother, I wonder what crime my daughter-in-law is guilty of? Why do you want the Queen to come forward?"

Tang Zhili, who was kneeling aside, was naturally angry at this, but Mrs. Anguo still needed Su Junxi to comfort her. If he offended another Su Junxi at this time, then he would really have a relationship with Duke Anguo. hatred.

He immediately stood up and explained: "My mother did not attend the princess's birthday banquet. What she said just now must have been slandered by others. I hope my empress will not be deceived by someone with malicious intentions."

What does it mean to lose a Bai family?Just keep the bloodline of Marquis Jingan.

Ye immediately agreed: "Yes, yes, Zhili is right. I listened to other people's rumors for a while and almost harmed Xi'er. Please forgive me."

"Oh?" The Queen suppressed the anger in her heart and asked, "Then what do you think should be done about Bai, the person who murdered the princess?"

"That woman hasn't entered the house yet, so she can't be regarded as Marquis Jing'an's concubine." The old lady insisted that the Bai family was not a family member of Marquis Jing'an.

Seeing such a cruel and merciless family, the Queen suddenly looked at Su Junxi with pity.

Su Junxi just smiled bitterly and said nothing.

However, Tang Zhili seemed to have been drunk, and said sternly: "It is certainly the Bai family's fault in this matter, but there is still a young son in the family, and he cannot live without his mother. I hope the Queen will be dealt with lightly."

Even now, Su Junxi is still defending the Bai family, but there is only indifference in Su Junxi's eyes.

Then he said to Su Junxi: "I think as the mistress, you don't want Jun'er to lose his biological mother."

It's really pitiful that he still drags her into the water now.

In desperation, Su Junxi had no choice but to kneel down and plead: "Mr. Bai was at fault. Now that the princess has awakened, please give the Queen a gentle punishment."

"Then tell me, how should I deal with her?" The Queen looked at Su Junxi, who had humbled herself to the dust for love, with a smile in her eyes.

"Bai's death sentence can be avoided, but living crime cannot be escaped. Just follow the laws of our court and carry out the punishment of the rod." Su Junxi had already said that he was the lightest.

At this time, a voice came from outside the door: "Killing the princess is not a trivial matter. Even if the queen does not pursue it, the Ai family will not tolerate others bullying you!"

"Mother." The Queen stood up from the bed to greet her.

Su Junxi: "See the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother asked the two of them to stand up, and then looked at the old lady who was still kneeling and said: "Old Madam Tang, please get up too. You are already old, so you can't see things clearly, but you can't do anything to your body. collapsed."

Naturally, the old lady understood the meaning of the Queen Mother's words and quickly thanked her: "Thank you, Queen Mother. I am able to have a granddaughter-in-law like Xi'er because of the high incense burned by the Tang family."
