Chapter 961 The Seven Lu Family

Amber didn't voice her suspicions.

Since Liu Fu said so, he naturally had his own ideas and it was forbidden to meddle in other people's business, not to mention that the two of them were not familiar with each other.

The rest of the journey was uneventful, and the group successfully arrived at Qingyang, a centrally located city in Taizhou Prefecture.

This is the location of the main line of the Lu family, one of the seven surnames. Nangong Liang's mother was the third sister of the current head of the Lu family.

They have been operating here for many years, and sometimes their words are more effective than the emperor's orders.

As soon as Amber and others entered the city, they met someone arranged by the Lu family.

"Old slave Lu Yun, pay homage to His Highness the Crown Prince."

A middle-aged man in brocade clothes knelt upright in front of the carriage, and behind him there were several younger servants who also knelt down.

Liu Fu was seriously injured and was sitting in a carriage at the moment. The driver was Amber.

"Sir, someone is blocking the way."

he said into the curtain.

As the words fell, Nangong Liang's voice also floated out.

"I'm going to retrieve my mother's belongings. Is the Lu family ready?"

"this"

There was a trace of embarrassment on Lu Yun's face, and he looked at the pedestrians who were standing and watching, "His Royal Highness, can you follow me back to your home?"

"Going to Lu's house? There's no need for that. You just need to deliver the things."

There was a majesty in Nangong Liang's words that had never been shown before.

"Did you hear that?"

Amber looked down at Lu Yun who was kneeling on the ground, "Why don't you get out of the way?"

"Your Highness, please don't make it difficult for me."

Lu Yun said this, but he still left the place obediently and stood aside honestly.

When he made eye contact with Amber, he also showed a slightly flattering smile.

What does this old guy know?

The carriage drove past Lu Yun and disappeared at the end of the road a moment later.

"Butler, let's."

The servant next to him finally couldn't help but said, "Are you just going to let them go?"

"Are you going to teach me how to do things?"

Lu Yun turned his head with a smile, his expression was very kind, but his tone was deeply cold.

"That's not what I mean by not being small."

The servant was so frightened that he was covered in cold sweat and fell to his knees on the ground.

Lu Yun snorted and ignored him, but turned his gaze to the direction the carriage left.

His Royal Highness? hehe.

other side.

As the capital of Taizhou, it goes without saying that Qingyang is prosperous. Except for the hawkers setting up stalls on the main road, the rest of the city has basically been occupied.

Amber drove the carriage slowly forward while admiring the surroundings.

Logically speaking, it is basically impossible for anything to happen at this speed.

But as a figure sprang out from the crowd, it rushed straight over.

The horse was startled and raised its hooves high.

If it were a normal adult, even if he couldn't avoid it, being stepped on would not be life-threatening.

But the one who rushed over was a child less than ten years old.

"Yang'er!!"

Some shrill shouts rang out from the crowd, it should be the child's mother.

Amber frowned and forcibly caught the fallen horse's hoof.

"Why don't you take the child and leave!?"

Seeing that the child was still frozen in place, he frowned and yelled angrily.

The woman woke up from a dream, grabbed her son, and held him tightly in her arms.

"What's wrong?"

Nangong Liang stuck his head out, looked around, and then froze in place as if a immobilization spell had been cast on him.

Just as Amber was about to speak, she saw him jumping off the carriage and coming to the woman's side, his lips trembling.

"mother"

Although the voice was very soft, it couldn't escape Amber's ears, and she couldn't help but look over curiously.

It happened suddenly so I didn't look carefully. Now when I look at the woman again, I can't help but be slightly surprised.

When it comes to beauties, it's not like he's never seen them before. Even Chi Lian and Xuerou before were just like that in Amber's eyes.

But this woman is not only beautiful, but also has a very unique temperament that makes people forget the ordinary.

"It's so similar!"

Liu Fu poked his head out at some point and said with emotion: "How could there be such similar people in the world?"

Amber narrowed her eyes slightly, faintly aware of something wrong.

"What's your name?"

Perhaps aware of his impoliteness, Nangong Liang quickly adjusted back: "I just scared you. I'm really sorry."

"It's okay, it's okay."

The woman was very scared and protected the child in her arms: "My son was naughty and bumped into the noble man. It was our fault."

Nangong Liang looked at this scene and felt a little jealous.

His impression of his mother was still that of when she was a few years old. The gradually blurring face was now completely replaced by the person in front of her, making him subconsciously want to get close to her.

"It doesn't matter."

Nangong Liang couldn't help but take a few steps forward, wanting to take a closer look at the person in front of him.

But at this moment, the woman who was as weak as a rabbit suddenly showed her fangs.

He pulled out a dagger from nowhere and stabbed Nangong Liang in the heart.

Fortunately, Amber was prepared and jumped out of the carriage when she took action.

Nangong Liang was pulled back. Although he avoided being stabbed, his chest was also cut open.

However, compared to the pain from the wound, he was more surprised.

Why.

An indescribable feeling of suffocation made Nangong Liang's eyes dim quickly.

The woman opposite didn't know his mental journey. She picked up the dagger and rushed forward until she was kicked away by Amber. When she fell to the ground, she had already lost her breath.

The child had long disappeared.

This was a long-planned assassination!

"Master!"

Liu Fu just ran over at this time, his face full of worry.

"No"

Nangong Liang was about to comfort him, but a feeling of weakness came over him, his head tilted, and he fainted immediately.

"The dagger is poisonous!"

Amber's nose smelled a sweet and fishy smell: "Go find a doctor!"

"Good! Good!"

Liu Fu woke up as if from a dream and ran to the back.

Seeing this, Amber shook his head, put him and Nangong Liang in the carriage, and then whipped the horse and galloped on the street.

The matter was urgent and there was no time to care about so much.

A moment later.

In the most famous clinic in Anqing City.

The old doctor with white hair and beard looked at the wound on Nangong Liang's chest, and then went up to smell it.

"You two should prepare for the afterlife. The poison in the patient is very strange, and it has penetrated into the bone marrow. It is difficult for gods to cure it."

"What did you say?!"

Liu Fu stepped forward and raised his hand to grab his collar: "Quack! If you can't cure him, I will kill your whole family!"

"Alas, medicine can't cure fatal diseases, why do you take it out on me?"

The old doctor sighed and let himself be caught without resisting.

Liu Fu was completely stunned and let go of his hand in a daze.

"Old. Old Liu"

At this moment, Nangong Liang on the bed opened his eyes.
