Chapter 80: Pry Lu Wu's Mouth Open
Lu Wu had too many secrets hidden from Li Zhang, and Li Zhang had long wanted to pry something out of his mouth, but Lu Wu's tone was too strict. If he didn't take out something, he would probably never reveal anything, so Li Zhang took out the porcelain plate.
"Where did you get this thing?" Lu Wu said with a deep face when he saw the porcelain plate in Li Zhang's hand. He was so familiar with the things in the palace that he naturally recognized the porcelain plate as something in the palace at a glance.
"Hehe, of course, when Mrs. Liu invited us to dinner last time, I hid one quietly. Later, I asked someone to look at the seal behind, but found that it was something in the palace. Uncle Wu, don't you have anything to say?" Li Zhang smiled and shook the porcelain plate in his hand.
"What... what can I say?" Lu Wu was still stubborn at this time and still held on forcing her to hold on.
"Uncle Wu, don't always treat me as a child. Women in the palace cannot meet outsiders casually. But Mrs. Liu dared to summon the three of us to see her in the evening. Two days ago, she even brought a child named Yier to me. This shows that she has the power to leave the palace. And I remember that His Majesty now has only one son, and the current queen seems to have the surname Liu, right?" Li Zhang continued quietly at this time.
Lu Wu finally couldn't hold back at this time. He immediately stuffed the porcelain plate into his arms, and then asked in a low voice: "This thing is too dangerous. I'll take it for you first. When did you know this?"
"It was the second day after I came back, I was just guessing. When I met Mrs. Liu the second time, she said that she had just returned from Daxiangguo Temple to pray for His Majesty. I happened to find out from the street that the queen went to Daxiangguo Temple to pray for His Majesty the day before, which made me finally confirm my guess." Li Zhang said with a smile. Of course, he did not tell the truth completely. In fact, after seeing Liu E for the first time, he had already confirmed the other party's identity and even guessed his identity.
"You... you little brat! You know so much is not a good thing for you!" Lu Wu immediately glared at the eyes and said angrily. He was also having a headache at this time. Li Zhang's intelligence was far beyond his imagination. He actually guessed Liu E's identity so early. He didn't know what he knew besides this?
"Uncle Wu, you can't hide everything from me. If Mrs. Liu is the current queen, the boy she brought should be the current prince. Uncle Wu, tell me honestly, am I really the queen's nephew and the prince's cousin?" Li Zhang asked further at this time.
What Li Zhang wanted was not the exact answer. He had known this for a long time, but wanted to use these questions he had known and agreed to further break through Lu Wu's psychological defense line and obtain information he did not know.
"As the queen, do you think she needs to lie to you?" Lu Wu said in a deep voice. He did not tell the truth this time, and even had a moment of dodging his eyes when he spoke, but it was easy to ignore it if he didn't pay attention.
"I understand!" Li Zhang nodded. He only explained clearly, but did not say that he understood anything. Then he continued to smile, "I didn't expect that I have an aunt in the queen. Now I don't have to worry about being bullied in the future. But I really want to know, Uncle Wu, what is the relationship between you and the queen?"
"What are you asking about this?" Lu Wu seemed quite resentful of this question, and immediately frowned and asked.
"Uncle Wu, you have known our family for a long time, and I have also seen that you should have a deep connection with the queen, but the queen has never looked for our family for many years. Instead, she suddenly came to recognize her relatives. This made me very puzzled. I am afraid that only you can answer this question, right?" Li Zhang ignored Lu Wu's question, but instead raised his own doubts again.
"Are you suspicious of me?" Lu Wu said with annoyed when he heard Li Zhang's words.
"Uncle Wu, if it weren't for your care over the years, Li'er and I would have starved to death long ago, so even if I doubted no one would have doubted you, it was just that there were too many things that I couldn't understand. If it were someone else, I would definitely not ask so directly, but instead test it from the side. But you are different. You are our elders, and our brothers and sisters treat you as their father, so I hope you can tell me directly, instead of hiding everything from me." Li Zhang stared at Lu Wudao with real eyes at this time.
When Lu Wu heard Li Zhang's true feelings, he also showed a silent expression. He believed that Li Zhang was telling the truth, but there were too many things he could not explain to Li Zhang, and even Li Yonghe knew very little. In this world, except for him and Liu E, there was probably only one other person who knew the complex grudges between them.
"Dalang, there are some things that I don't tell you, but the time has not come. As for my relationship with the queen, I can't explain them in just one or two words. If I have the chance in the future, I will tell you slowly!" Lu Wu finally said with relief.
When he said these words, the expression on Lu Wu's face also relaxed. He has carried too many things alone over the years, and even Li Yong and him did not tell some things. Now that Li Zhang has finally grown up, he may finally be able to share the burden with him.
"I feel relieved if you have Uncle Wu's words!" Li Zhang finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. Lu Wu's attitude relaxed. As long as he worked harder in the future, he might be able to completely solve the mystery in him.
"Since you know the identity of the queen, and the queen is preparing to disclose your identity these days, you may be awarded an official position and may often contact the queen in the future. Although the queen's personality is strong, she is not essentially a bad person. As long as you pay attention to not disobey her in the future, you will not cause trouble!" Lu Wu reminded him again with concern.
"I know, thank you Uncle Wu!" Li Zhang nodded immediately. He could feel the feelings of Lu Wu towards their brother and sister, which was also the main reason why Li Zhang trusted him.
Lu Wu still had something to do, so after giving Li Zhang instructions, he left with a wild dog, while Li Zhang continued to do his business. Although he knew that he would get an official title in a few days, and for ordinary people, Li Zhang was very calm and did not make any abnormal actions.
It was almost dark in the evening. Lu Wu and the Wild Dog had not come back yet, but Jinshan came. As soon as he came in, he said with a sad look: "What did you say to your younger sister? After she went back today, she found the guard at home and said she wanted to learn martial arts. She also asked me to find a few famous martial arts masters to teach her?"
"Losing weight, if you have time, you can practice martial arts with it. Anyway, it's all exercise. The amount of exercise you practice martial arts is even greater, and you can defend yourself after learning it." Li Zhang replied with a smile. He didn't know many people, and the only one who can be called friends is Kingsoft. Jin Xiaomei can barely count as half of them. Now that Han Qi leaves, Kingsoft is his only friend.
"Practice martial arts? With my size, I can kill a few of them by weight alone!" Jin Shan said with a self-deprecating smile. No matter where he goes, he always has a few thugs around him, so he doesn't need to do anything at all.
"A body of fat, if someone holds a knife, you can't even run!" Li Zhang said with a blank look. Although Jinshan is a little thinner than before, the base of fat on his body is too large, and there may be no obvious effect in a short period of time.
After making a few jokes, Jinshan suddenly hesitated for a moment and said, "My mother asked me to ask you again..."
"Don't bother with this, don't be afraid to tell you that you are not the only one who came to propose marriage during this period. I feel that I have been targeted by many people!" Li Zhang knew that Jinshan was going to talk about Jin Xiaomei again, and immediately interrupted him.
"Who is moving so fast?" Jin Shan asked with a surprised expression when he heard Li Zhang's words. The one above him was very good at hand, so the news was very well-informed, but unexpectedly, someone else was eyeing Li Zhang.
"Haha, some time ago, an old man came to my place for dinner every day, and finally brought his daughter directly, but I refused. He had an identity, that is, the uncle of the current dynasty." Li Zhang replied with a smile. In order to make Jinshan and his son give up, he could only tell Liu Mei's story.
"Liu Mei! He... he actually wants to marry his daughter to you?" Jin Shan said in disbelief. Although Liu Mei is not the queen's brother, she is quite popular. It can be said that her status is definitely not comparable to their Jin family, and even the one above him dares to provoke the other party.
After being shocked, Jinshan couldn't help but look at Li Zhang up and down again, and then asked with an incredible look on his face: "Brother, you have a solid understanding of your relationship with your brother. Who are you from? What is your origin? The uncle of the current dynasty rushed to ask you to be your son-in-law?"
"Do you believe me, I said I am the prince's cousin?" Li Zhang immediately replied with a smile.
"Don't joke. Although the prince's cousin has many, most of them are the eldest princess' sons. The queen has no relatives, and only a few sons of Liu Mei can barely be called the crown prince's cousin. You must not be Liu Mei's son, otherwise he would not want to marry his daughter to you. As for the eldest princess, it is even more impossible, otherwise your father will be the prince consort!" Jinshan didn't believe Li Zhang's words at all, and even thought he was making jokes to make excuses him.
"Forget it if you don't believe it." Li Zhang was too lazy to explain. Anyway, his identity will be revealed in no time. He really wanted to see what Shi Jinshan's expression was?
But at this moment, suddenly, a burst of rapid footsteps came from outside. Then a yamen runs over and shouts in anger: "Li... Brother Li, Lu Bantou... Lu Bantou and others have an accident!"
