The Imperial Guard’s Revenge

"There must be a way, think again."

Wang Yanqing frowned, racking her brains to figure out what else she could be called. He was not allowed to be called the second brother, he was unhappy when he was called an official position, and it would be unreasonable to call him by his first name, so he couldn't be called "Brother Heng", right? That would be too mushy. Wang Yanqing vaguely felt that Lu Heng meant the last one. She felt embarrassed to speak like this in front of Lingxi and others, so she bit her lip and held Lu Heng's uninjured arm, shaking it gently: "elder brother……"

Her eyes were wet, her voice was slightly hoarse, and she looked pitiful. Lu Heng's heart softened unconsciously. Forget it, although he can't be clearly distinguished from Fu Tingzhou, at least he is no longer Fu Tingzhou's stand-in. Lu Heng sighed and compromised: "Okay, it's up to you."

Wang Yanqing was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, and quickly got up from Lu Heng's legs. After all this tossing, Wang Yanqing's hair was loose, and the bun was slanted behind his head, and the emerald jade hairpin on it was about to fall, just like a begonia chūn sleeping, unbearable. Wang Yanqing couldn't see clearly when he was lying down. After sitting up, there was plenty of light, and only then did he realize that there was a trace of blood on the corner of Lu Heng's mouth, which must have been bitten by Wang Yanqing. She was so embarrassed that she didn't dare to stay any longer, so she jumped to the bed in a hurry and said, "It's late at night, I'll go back first. Brother, take care of your wounds."

After she finished speaking, she didn't dare to stop, and ran out without turning her head.

A beautiful woman is beautiful, but she is too timid, and if she is not careful, she escapes like a rabbit, leaving only the fragrance of the room. Lu Heng looked at the dancing candles for a long time and sighed lowly.

He knew that his actions were despicable, but he would never let go of what he wanted, whether it was a woman or an official position.

He can only get worse.

Chapter 72 Promotion

On July 28, there was a fire in the Weihui Palace. At that time, the fire lit up half of the sky and could be seen from the state capital a hundred miles away. It was not until dawn that the strange fire was finally put out, and only sporadic flames remained.

This night can be described as heavy losses. Many accompanying soldiers, eunuchs, concubines and palace maids were buried in the sea of ​​​​fire.

As soon as the officials in Henan heard the news, they felt that their head was on the belt of their trousers.

The local officials were trembling, and the Beijing officials who accompanied them were not feeling well either. The emperor suffered this catastrophe, and the originally scheduled itinerary was naturally innumerable, and everyone remained in the Weihui Palace. After the emperor was rescued from the fire, Zhang Shoufu, Chen Yin, Marquis of Wuding, Duke Cheng and others stayed in front of the sanctuary all night, but the emperor still did not show up the next day. It was sent back.

Seeing that the emperor had not appeared for a long time, the officials could not help but feel uneasy, and as cautious as Yan Wei, he couldn't help but inquire about the news. However, now even the concubines are not allowed to enter, and the only people who can see the emperor are the eunuchs and Lu Heng.

The eunuch didn't talk about it. Lu Heng can infiltrate this team, does he need to reflect on how much?

Fortunately, the emperor did not let the outside world's speculation last long. On the third day after the fire, the emperor finally called and summoned the ministers.

In the past three days, the news of Lu Heng's rescue has spread all over the place. The officials outside rushed to deliver medicine to Lu Heng, and the eunuch was also very obedient, and sent the best scald ointment from the Imperial Hospital early.

Lu Heng thanked the guests behind closed doors, refused anyone who inquired about news or formed gangs. Apart from going to the holy place to say hello, the rest of the time he stayed in the yard "recuperating". Wang Yanqing saw Lu Heng's injury with her own eyes that night. She was very worried and insisted on dressing him up in person.

Of course Lu Heng could not ask for it. His biggest injury was on his arm, but other places were also hit by sparks. If you want to apply medicine properly, you will have to take off your clothes. After talking to Wang Yanqing, Lu Heng became more and more reluctant to endure it. He was enjoying the best medicine, and there was another beautiful woman in his arms. Lu Heng was in a happy mood, and his injuries were getting better quickly. When he went to see the driver on the third day, there was no obstacle to his actions.

Lu Heng rushed to the hall, and when he entered the door, he happened to bump into Fu Tingzhou. Lu Heng smiled at Fu Tingzhou, and took the initiative to nod to say hello: "Marquis of Zhenyuan."

He has an easy-going tone and looks very humble, but he stands in front of the palace gate and refuses to give in a single step. The eunuch who led the way was a little embarrassed. Fu Tingzhou took the initiative to take a step back and said lightly, "It turned out to be Commander Lu. Commander, please."

Lu Heng was rude, and he should have walked ahead. When the two stopped in front of the hall and waited for the eunuch to report, Lu Heng glanced at Fu Tingzhou unintentionally, and asked with concern, "Marquis Zhenyuan's action seems a little expensive. Could it be that Marquis Zhenyuan is injured? Is it serious?"

Fu Tingzhou snorted coldly, and curled the corners of his lips without a smile: "I was bitten by a mad dog. It's not serious. Commander Lao Lu is worried."

"It's fine if it's not serious." Lu Heng seemed to not understand Fu Tingzhou's words, and smiled casually, "Marquis Zhenyuan should be more careful in the future, if there is another next time, there may not be such good luck. After all, Marquis Zhenyuan He is a rising star, if he is injured and cannot go to the battlefield, it will be a loss to the court."

Lu Heng's remarks stepped on Fu Tingzhou's painful feet one after another. Fu Tingzhou gritted his teeth secretly and told himself not to care about the villain. However, everyone knew that Lu Heng was injured, and Lu Heng took the initiative to ask.
