Chapter 1016 I don't know how expensive my body is when I'm young
Du He's words resounded in the air.
The people were stunned for a moment, and then they shouted loudly.
"My lord, let me take you to Chang'an."
"Yes, Duke, the journey here is not far, but it is extremely dangerous. We are willing to accompany the Duke to Chang'an."
"Yes, we won't leave!"
"My lord, we will go to Chang'an with you."
Everyone said this one after another, and the crowd was furious.
Everyone volunteered to accompany Du He to Chang'an.
Du He glanced around and suddenly said loudly: "Elders, if you still have me, Du He, in your hearts, then send me here."
"If you still believe in your heart that I can return safely, then stop."
"If you believe that I will not only return safely, but also slap Mrs. Lu on the face again, then don't send me any more."
"Everyone, do you believe me?"
Du He asked loudly.
The people raised their hands one after another and shouted: "Believe!"
"believe!"
"believe!"
Everyone shouted, and as expected they stopped.
The carriage drove out of the city gate and headed north.
The people who were bidding farewell all raised their heads and looked around. Until the carriage disappeared on Anhu Avenue, everyone was still unwilling to move or leave for a long time.
…
Fourth watch time.
Du He used his privileges to enter Chang'an City and came to Laiguo Duke's Mansion.
The entire Laiguo Duke's mansion was actually brightly lit, and no one in the mansion was asleep.
The chief steward, Lao Fu, had already rushed back from Hu County and summoned everyone to come out to greet Du He.
Du He wanted to curse, but couldn't, so he had to ask Old Fu to send everyone away from the house, and then he went to the backyard alone.
At the entrance of the courtyard, Princess Li Yuanshu of Runan and Princess Li Lizhi of Changle were waiting for him.
Du He smiled brightly: "Wife, thank you for your hard work."
Li Yuanshu and Li Lizhi looked at each other, suddenly rushed up, grabbed Du He's arms from left to right, and walked into the house.
"Oh, you two wives, what are you doing!"
"It hurts..."
boom.
The door is closed.
The candle was blown out.
Du He didn't know why, but all his clothes fell to the ground, and then he was thrown on the bed.
Not long after, Du He's voice begging for mercy and shouting that he couldn't do it could be heard outside the yard.
…
Its daybreak.
squeak.
Du He opened the door and walked out dressed neatly.
However, when I walked, I felt extremely weak and my legs felt weak.
As soon as he walked to the door of the courtyard, he saw Du Ruhui, who had been waiting for a long time.
When Du Ruhui saw Du He, he said calmly: "He'er, you are still young, so you must be temperate. When you are young, you don't know how valuable your body is. When you get older, you will regret and shed tears in vain."
It can be seen that Lao Du is a veteran.
Du He scratched his head and said, "Dad, you were waiting for me here early in the morning, didn't you just say this?"
Du Ruhui then became serious and asked, "He'er, tell me honestly, does the death of Lu Mingan and others have anything to do with you?"
Du He no longer concealed anything and simply explained the plan to harm the two Lu Mingan brothers.
"Originally, I just wanted to teach the Lu family a lesson, but I didn't know that Lu Mingan was so happy that he actually called all the Lu family members in Hu County at the last moment, and then his whole family went to heaven." Du He added.
Du Ruhui nodded: "Father, I know. When we go to the court today, you know what to do. Don't worry, no matter what happens, Dad will be there."
With that said, he stepped forward and patted Du He heavily on the shoulder.
Du He turned around and walked out.
Du Ruhui watched Du He leave.
Then, he shouted: "Old Fu, let someone help me dress."
After a short time, Du Ruhui got dressed neatly, then came to the study, picked up a memorial written on the table last night, put it into his sleeve, and walked out.
…
In the melodious sound of bells.
The imperial city gate opens.
The civil and military ministers from the previous morning's dynasty poured in and came to the Tai Chi Hall.
For some reason, His Majesty Li Er has been nowhere to be seen today.
Fang Xuanling asked curiously: "Is Your Majesty not in good health? Why don't we all go back to Nanya for work first?"
Wei Zheng also said: "Master Fang's suggestion is a good one."
However, Changsun Wuji shook his head and said, "Master Fang, Master Wei, if His Majesty's dragon body is not in good condition, the chamberlain Zhao Yang should come and report it. Why is there no movement? Maybe Your Majesty has something to do and will be here soon."
"Yes, Lord Changsun is right. We came to the court in the morning. If you leave without permission when His Majesty is not there, you will be deceiving your Majesty."
"Can't leave!"
"Yes, even if you wait until noon, it doesn't matter!"
There are many people who oppose it.
Among the crowd, Lu Mingyou, the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and Wang Cheng, the minister of the Ministry of War, looked at each other and saw the fierce look in each other's eyes.
Just then, there was a commotion in the crowd.
Everyone turned their heads and saw the King of Shu, Li Ke, and the Crown Prince, Li Chengqian, striding in side by side.
Li Chengqian behaved in a gentle and gentle manner.
But this guy Li Ke looks at people with his eyes above his head and his nostrils, as if he is afraid that others will not know that he is arrogant.
Wang Gui suddenly looked at Li Ke and asked, "Your Highness, King of Shu, what are you doing here?"
Li Ke replied: "This king is here to attend the morning court. Why, Mr. Wang, you don't agree?"
Wang Gui said: "That's not true. It's just that when Your Highness comes to the morning court, why does he wear a sword?"
That's right, Li Ke was carrying a scimitar on his left waist, and a sword on his right waist. Moreover, he was not wearing a wide robe, but a short sword. His arms were bulging, and his back was bulging. He also carried a round bag on his back, and God knows what kind of weapons were inside.
Wow.
All the ministers took two steps to the side.
Li Ke glanced at Lu Mingyou and Wang Cheng coldly, suddenly pulled out half of the scimitar, and then thrust it back in.
Click.
There was a crisp sound.
Many people turned pale with fear.
…
"Your Majesty has arrived!"
As Zhao Yang's thin voice sounded, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, I no longer need to be threatened by the King of Shu.
Li Er walked to the dragon chair and sat down. Seeing Li Ke fully armed, he shouted loudly: "Treason, what are you doing?"
Li Ke hurriedly agreed: "My father, my sons, and my sons are chatting with all of you. We are having a great time chatting, talking about everything from ancient and modern history to astronomy and geography."
"Get out of here!" Li Er scolded.
"oh!"
Li Ke obediently walked to the side and stood still, but his eyes were fixed on Lu Mingyou and Wang Cheng.
Li Er asked in a deep voice: "My dear friends, the country and the people are at peace recently, the weather has been good, and the affairs in the court have been reduced a lot. I am very relieved. If you have something to do, please withdraw from the court."
The main hall suddenly fell into silence.
No one in the crowd spoke.
Li Ke couldn't stand it anymore and said loudly: "My lords, didn't you hear? My father asked you to withdraw from the court without incident, so please go."
As he said this, he actually wanted to drive the ministers out of the Tai Chi Hall himself.
At this moment, an official from the Yushitai stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I want to visit the magistrate Wei Shuyu and the consort Du He of Hu County."
Finally, someone stood up.
Some people are surprised.
Someone is happy.
Someone is angry.
Some people have the attitude of watching a good show.
