Chapter 42: What a big cake

Chapter 42

As soon as Lu Songli woke up the next day, her parents invited her to the main courtyard for breakfast. After breakfast, she was invited to the study by her father. Then Lu Songli saw her father mysteriously take something out of his arms.

"Dad, how did you get this?" Lu Songli carefully took the death-free gold medal from his father's hand and looked up and down with bright eyes.

A gold medal to avoid death! Something I've only seen in TV series. She didn't expect Emperor Kang Cheng to be so generous and willing to give one to her father! Like the Qin family, they have protected the land of Dali for generations and shed their blood for it, but they may not be able to get a gold medal for immunity from death.

Hide it, you must hide it!

Lu Songli looked her father up and down. Her father was okay. The emperor and her father wouldn't have any kind of deal, would they?

"Daughter, what's wrong with you? Don't look at dad like this, dad feels uncomfortable." Lu Desheng felt that his daughter's eyes were strange.

Lu Songli looked at it twice and then looked away. Forget it, the emperor probably doesn't like her father's words. It's just that her father's thigh-holding skills are too strong. It seems that the emperor likes her father's tricks.

Lu Desheng cleared his throat and talked to Lu Songli about everything that happened in Yuqian Palace last night, in detail.

Originally, Lu Desheng had a plan to express his loyalty to the emperor in the near future, which they had discussed before. When Lu Desheng told his daughter about this, it was considered as giving feedback.

Lu Songli had expected that Emperor Kang Cheng's opinion of her father would improve a lot after her father expressed his loyalty, but Lu Songli never expected that her experience in the Queen Mother's Palace would be different from her father's expression. Loyalty and loyalty collided, and the combination of the two was able to achieve such an achievement - allowing Emperor Kang Cheng to give him a gold medal for immunity from death.

Then her eyes returned to the death-free gold medal in her hand. Now Lu Songli knew why the Queen Mother rushed to Yugan Palace in such a hurry last night, as if her butt was on fire. It turned out that her butt was not on fire, but that her father had stolen the tower.

Lu Songli calculated the time, and the enemy slipped away just as he was about to reach the battlefield. Her father's departure and the Queen Mother's arrival should be a matter of urgency.

"Dad, it's a good thing you ran fast." Otherwise, it would be hard to tell whether the surname of this gold medal for immunity from death would be Lu.

"That's right." Lu Desheng said proudly. He wouldn't hurry up after getting this big treasure.

She thought about it, something was wrong. Her father left earlier than her last night, so he should have arrived home before her.

Regarding her doubts, Lu Desheng said, "I took another road." He didn't take a shortcut and took a detour because he was afraid that someone would chase him out.

Lu Songli gave him a thumbs up, "You are so treacherous."

Lu Desheng glared at her, "How can you describe your father as treacherous?"

"Dad, I was complimenting you."

"Dad, this is a life-saving thing, you have to keep it." Lu Songli handed the death-free gold medal back to her father after reading it, but she didn't know if this thing was for a special chapter. If not, it would be of great use.

Lu Desheng took it carefully and told her, "As long as you, me, and your mother know about this, don't let it slip."

"That can't be done." Lu Songli was a little surprised when she heard her father's warning, "Won't the eldest brother and the younger brother tell you too?"

Lu Desheng said hurriedly, "Don't tell them yet." It's not that he doesn't trust him. How should I put it? The eldest son already has a wife, so he knows how powerful the pillow style is. "Your eldest brother doesn't have any ideas. As for your brother, I'm afraid of him." Talking in sleep brought this matter out."

A pot came from the sky. Brother Lu Mingzhi: When did he get the habit of talking in his sleep?

Lu Songli: As expected of her father, he has such double standards. I dote on my wife and think my sister-in-law's pillow style is too strong.

Lu Desheng didn't feel there was anything wrong with his decision at all. There have been so many things going on at home recently, both sons are not at home. Although the reasons for not being at home were all excusable, he just felt uncomfortable.

The little girl is different, she can help him. Besides, my daughter must take half of the credit for getting this death-free gold medal from the emperor.

"Does my mother have any objection?"

"She has no objection." The existence of the death-free gold medal is a trump card, but he just doesn't tell them. If something happens to the two brothers, they should still use it.

Neither of them mentioned her sister Lu Songyun. In Lu Desheng's mind, a married daughter throws away water.

For Lu Songli, her father earned this death-free gold medal through his own ability, so he could do whatever he wanted.

"Dad, I can't keep this secret." After the initial excitement, rationality returned, and Lu Songli thought of the scene where the Queen Mother hurriedly rose to control the palace last night. It is true that not many people know that her father has a gold medal to avoid death, but if the Queen Mother knows, how can she let the Lu family silently hold such a big killer weapon?

It has been true since ancient times that it is difficult to grab a treasure, but even harder to keep it.

Lu Desheng also thought of this when he heard his daughter's explanation. It was true.

"Be prepared for it."

"Daughter, the emperor also gave me a magical elixir." Lu Desheng took out a pinky-sized meatball that was all red. "When you get closer to this meatball, you can smell it. It has a faint, cold fishy aroma. It has a very special smell."

Lu Songli was startled, "Dad, you can't touch this thing." This thing is all poisonous, including mercury poisoning, heavy metal poisoning, and mineral poisoning...

"Dad, the ingredients used in this elixir are not meant to prolong life."

Think about how this thing is made, cinnabar, gold, mercury and various minerals, I heard that it also contains the menstrual blood of girls, they dare to put anything in it, just thinking about it makes my scalp numb.

Seeing that his daughter was obviously scared, Lu Desheng quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, I'll keep it and won't touch it."

Even after getting her father's guarantee, Lu Songli was still worried and took the pill directly, "I'll help you deal with this pill. If the emperor asks, just say you ate it."

"Okay, okay." Just now, he heard his daughter talk about some of the materials for making the pill, and he was also very disgusted.

Seeing this pill, Lu Songli's heart was pounding, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, why are you so careless as to eat this chronic poison!

I originally thought that Emperor Kangcheng would be a golden thigh. After her father successfully climbed up, their Lu family would have a long period of peace. At least before Emperor Kangcheng died, their Lu family didn't have to worry.

Emperor Kangcheng is forty-eight this year, and Lu Songli is not greedy. As long as he works hard and lives to sixty, it will be fine. Then their family still has twelve years of peaceful life, during which the Qin family is exiled and then counterattacks Chang'an. If the Qin family is still as lucky as the original book said, their Lu family will secretly find an opportunity to make friends with the Qin family and board the Qin family's big ship. Their Lu family does not ask to stand like the Xie family in the original book. They just hope that when the dynasty changes, their Lu family can also make a safe transition.

However, it is obvious that the current Emperor Kangcheng has worked too hard. Lu Songli dares to say that Emperor Kangcheng may not live to sixty. Now it is unknown whether Emperor Kangcheng takes elixirs frequently. If it is high, I am afraid that there will not be even a fraction of twelve years.

What should we do now? Obviously, Emperor Kangcheng's golden thigh is not safe, and it is unknown when he will die. Should they prepare a way out? Let her dig it out and see which prince is suitable for their Lu family to secretly bet on. Headache, trouble, no, no, her father just expressed his loyalty, and then turned around to invest in other princes. Is he too comfortable with the head on his neck?

Lu Songli wanted to cry but had no tears. Damn it, she should have thought of it earlier, right? Emperor Kang Cheng is obsessed with Buddhism and Taoism, and is known as Taiqing Zhenren. How can he not touch the elixir of the immortal Taoist? Think about it again, in the past five thousand years, how many wise and powerful emperors fell on the elixir made by this Taoist in their later years! The well-known ones are Qin Shihuang, Emperor Wu of Han, Emperor Taizong of Tang, Yongzheng and other emperors with first-class civil and military skills. Compared with the above wise monarchs, it is not surprising that Emperor Kang Cheng is superstitious about this.

The key is, what should their family do next? What kind of retreat should be prepared? It is best to make a good plan for both hands, grasp both hands, and both hands must be strong.
