Husband has a sweetheart

Chapter 177 Lu Wei visits his mother
Not long after the Liangzhou Lantern Festival, businessmen returned with loads of goods of all kinds and talked about the prosperity, stability and richness of Liangzhou.

Especially the three new rules announced by the Qilin Empress in public, all of which are benevolent policies that are unimaginable.

After Daxia negotiated a peace with the Prairie Royal Court, the national border with Luerwei as the boundary was redrawn. In addition, the tribute that had been weighing on Daxia for more than ten years was cancelled. From now on, Daxia no longer needs to pay any tribute to the Prairie Royal Court. money.

Just when the people outside Liangzhou were celebrating, thinking that the exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes on them were going down, they found that instead of being reduced, the taxes on them were getting heavier.

The reason is very simple. Emperor Taichang has been dead for such a long time, and the mausoleum has not yet been completed, and Emperor Anping has begun to build his own tomb. The palace has been used for so many years. After Emperor Anping ascended the throne, the harem was expanded, and the palace should be expanded and rebuilt. .

Everything requires money.

Emperor Anping couldn't change the money himself, so he could only ask the people to collect taxes.

On the other hand, there were officials whose conscience was still intact and who were unwilling to ruin the lives of the common people. However, without Lu Wei's strength, they were either forced to resign or were punished by the emperor.

There were only a handful of conscientious officials, but after such a wave of operations, all the officials in the court were left who obeyed Emperor Anping, fished in troubled waters, and took advantage of the opportunity to benefit themselves in the name of filial piety to the emperor.

More and more people are running to Liangzhou at the risk of having their homes confiscated and beheaded, and they are almost running to the areas occupied by the Red Lotus Sect and the Qing Army.

No one left in the court's sphere of influence could escape death.

In such a tense and desperate atmosphere, no one paid attention to the several bizarre cases that happened in the family of Kong Zhengsong, the censor of the right capital.

First, Master Kong's daughter, who was a widower, was kidnapped by gangsters.

Usually gangsters tie people up just to get money. Mr. Kong waited and waited and couldn't get the blackmail. He found a home for his daughter and was ready to send her out as soon as possible, but something happened at this time.

The other party simply called off the engagement.

Then the house of Master Kong caught fire and was completely burned inside and out. Although there were no casualties, the family property accumulated over the years was completely destroyed.

Not to mention after the burning, many homeless and beggars came out from nowhere and ransacked the house again, taking away all the gold, silver and jewelry that had not been burned.

Mr. Kong led his wife, children and children to stand in front of the ruins still smoking, and wanted to cry but had no tears.

A friend from the court gave him a heads-up, saying that someone threw a banner into his yard in the middle of the night. It said that Kong Zhengsong was not strict with his goddaughter and had offended his enemies. Burning the house was just a minor punishment.If there is a next time, no one from the whole family will be left behind, including the guard dog.

Kong Zhengsong didn't expect that it was the widow's daughter who returned home from Guining who was causing the trouble. He angrily summoned all the servants and invited Jing Zhaoyin to interrogate the case. They asked questions one by one and finally found some clues. , vaguely inferring the general context of the matter.

After learning the truth, Kong Zhengsong sat down on the ground in shock, gritted his teeth in anger, beat the ground and cursed: "This evil girl! How dare she? How dare she!"

That's Lu Wei!She actually sent someone to assassinate Lu Wei and his wife!She doesn't want her life, but dozens of members of the Kong family want their lives!

Kong Zhengsong opened the ancestral hall without hesitation and crossed out Mrs. Shen from the family tree. He told everyone about it to show his determination to draw a clear line with this evil girl, hoping that it would reach Lu Wei's ears. Target him again.

Zhang Yuqing heard someone talk about Master Kong's unfortunate experience, and he guessed what was going on.

As for the fate of Mrs. Xiao Shen, Zhang Yuqing did not ask.

It all fell into Lu Wei's hands, and Lu Wei would never let her live again.

After Lu Wei killed Shen Shoushan, Zhang Yuqing did not order the killing of Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Xiao Shen, and let them go separately.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhang Yuqing invited all her relatives and friends to enjoy the moon and eat mooncakes in the yard. When everyone talked about this, they were filled with indignation. It was clearly Mrs. Lu's kindness that spared Mrs. Shen's life, but Mrs. Shen wanted to rebel. Coming here to harm Mrs. Lu is really bad.

"I wonder what little Mrs. Shen looks like, she must be very beautiful!" Kou Leguo muttered, beautiful women are generally more evil-minded.

Liu Quan said: "Is it possible that we have to eradicate the roots in the future?"

Zhang Yuqing smiled and shook his head. It was impossible to eliminate the root cause. Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Xiao Shen were not worthy of death at that time. Even if it happened again, she would not kill Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Xiao Shen.

A person must have limits, and she will not let herself fall into the abyss because of revenge.

Autumn turned to winter, winter turned to spring, and at the beginning of spring, Lu Wei quietly went to the capital. He did not enter the gate of the capital, but went to Mercy Temple on the outskirts of Beijing under the cover of night.

Duan Shu, wearing a linen monk's robe and a string of Buddhist beads hanging around her neck, stood in the yard looking at her son, whom she had not seen for several years.

Lu Wei strode forward and knelt down to Duan Shu with a plop. When he raised his head again, his eyes were red, "Mother!"

After more than four years of separation, Duanshu's once beautiful and charming face had a few wrinkles. She stretched out her hand to touch Lu Wei's face tremblingly, and her tears fell to the ground.

"Good boy, get up quickly." Duan Shu choked with sobs.

Lu Wei followed Duan Shu into the house and looked around.

It was still the same as he remembered from before, a simple nunnery with a bed and a table, and wooden fish scriptures were placed on the table.

"How is the child?" Duan Shu asked.When talking about his daughter, Lu Wei's expression was gentle, "The child is very good. She is crawling everywhere. If the nurse is not careful, she can even roll out of bed!"

Duanshu's eyes shone with hope and kindness, "She is a naughty little girl!"

Lu Wei felt very uncomfortable. As a grandmother, Duan Shu must have wanted to see and hold the child with her own eyes, so he said, "I see that she looks like my grandmother."

Duan Shu laughed, "Really? Don't let your sweet talk make your mother happy, right?"

"Really, they do look alike!" Lu Wei said with a smile. Lu Xiao's eyes resembled Zhang Yuqing's, but his nose and mouth followed his. Rounding things off, doesn't it mean he looks like his grandmother?
"Mother, let me take you to Baochuan! Qingqing and the children are looking forward to your coming!" Lu Wei knelt in front of Duan Shu and put his head on Duan Shu's lap as he did when he was a child.

It was with Duanshu's blessing that this child had the opportunity to come to this world and was born in Liangzhou.If Emperor Anping knew that Qingqing was pregnant, even if he did not kill the child, he would definitely detain the child and keep him as a hostage in the capital.

Duan Shu touched Lu Wei's hair and said with a smile, "Silly boy!"

She was the court's hostage to restrain Lu Wei. If the court found out that Duan Shu had escaped, the fragile trust and balance between the monarch and his ministers would immediately be broken.

Although Emperor Anping's dynasty is in turmoil and may capsize one day, it is not the time for the monarch and his ministers to fall out.

She can't go.

Lu Wei had already anticipated Duan Shu's answer, and took a deep breath, not knowing what to say.

"I am living a good life in the capital. You and Yuqing take good care of the children. If you have two more children, the children will have company." Duan Shu said, "You and Yuqing have no brothers or sisters, so you are really lonely."

The concubines and concubines born to Lu Dewen's aunts were directly excluded by Duan Shu and were not counted as human beings.

Lu Wei smiled and nodded with red eyes.

"I know you have always been filial, and Yuqing is also an excellent child. I like her very much." Duan Shu said slowly, "Originally, I was worried that you two were young and would not be considerate of each other. Now it seems that I am worrying too much. ”

Lu Wei felt sad and forced a smile on his face, "We are both fine and fine. Mother, you should also take care of yourself. Our family will be reunited one day."

Duan Shu laughed, "That's natural!"

She sighed again, touched Lu Wei's cheek, and said nervously and distressedly: "Why is there a scar here? Was it injured on the battlefield?"

"I accidentally got hit by a stray arrow. I just scratched my skin, nothing serious." Lu Wei said.

"Darker and thinner." Duan Shu sighed.

Lu Wei never reported suffering or suffering in his letters home to her. Others envied her son for his high position and power, but this high-ranking official was killed in a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood. If he was not careful, he would be doomed.

"I'm already a father, why would I do it for nothing?" Lu Wei stood there and looked at her carefully, "Qingqing said I look better now than before!"

Duan Shu tapped Lu Wei's forehead and tried to make you happy. Are you serious about it?Which girl likes black faces but not pretty ones?

When the sky was about to get dark, Lu Wei said goodbye to his mother and stood outside the Mercy Nunnery with his horse. He watched the door of the nunnery close and the sound of wooden fish began to sound leisurely.

He knew that his mother was going to do morning lessons.

When Lu Wei turned around, he saw someone standing there waiting for him for a long time.

"Aqin." Lu Wei took the initiative to call him.

Fang Qin sighed and walked to Lu Wei, "Actually, I didn't want to come out to see you."

Lu Wei patted him hard on the shoulder, "No matter what unpleasantness we have had between you and me, we have been brothers for many years, and this relationship will never change."

Fang Qin sighed more and more often, what's the use of brotherhood?Didn't you just drive him away because of the woman?

"Yes, we are brothers! So, I came here to tell you something." Fang Qin said with a bit of schadenfreude on his face, "Don't you think your father is getting rich? He wants you to support your development." Several concubines, your uncle took them and their respective aunts to Liangzhou, I guess they should be here by now..."

No matter how smart Zhang Yuqing is, what if he has extraordinary plans?Lu Dewen's second uncle and those aunts are not fuel-efficient lamps!
After she married Lu Wei, she went to Liangzhou with Lu Wei to live a life of two. There were no elders to pressure her, and Lu Wei was an idiot who doted on her unconditionally. She didn't know how sad it was for an ordinary woman to become a mother-in-law after being a daughter-in-law for many years!Let’s see if she can still be as comfortable as before when she gets caught up in the quagmire of these otaku women’s trivial noises!
When Lu Weiyi heard that it was okay, he immediately got on his horse.

Fang Qin pulled him back, looking like she could hardly hold back her laughter, "I almost forgot, your uncle also brought you two cousins, saying that Zhang Yuqing couldn't give birth to a son, so he asked these two cousins ​​to give you Give birth to a son!”

　Sweetheart Theater:
　　Lu Wei: I have a bad feeling.

　　Ye Yu: Be confident, you are Long Aotian.

　　Lu Wei: I have a premonition that I will be wronged again.

　　Fang Qin: Oh hahahaha, it’s a pity that I can’t go there and see with my own eyes what a mess it is.
