My wife is a reborn big boss
Chapter 76 "The Death-Taking Judge" Lu Wudao
"Let him wait." Her Majesty the Empress sat up, frowning. "He still has the nerve to come see me!"
After seizing the throne, she entrusted the management of Wanxiang Tower to Lu Wudao to coordinate with the various operations of the Six Doors. After all, an army cannot march without supplies, and for an official organization like the Six Doors, which is specifically responsible for handling matters of the martial arts world, the importance of intelligence is self-evident.
Why did she trust Lu Wudao so much that she entrusted him with managing the Wanxiang Building, which she had run for many years?
This was unexpected for Lu Wudao.
Many years ago, one winter, he went to the palace to meet the emperor. On his way out, he happened to see the young Bai Xuanji in the palace.
The little girl, dressed in a thin palace gown, stood alone under a plum tree in the cold wind, looking up at the plum blossoms swaying in the wind, her little face showing a loneliness beyond her years.
Lu Wudao admitted that his paternal love had been awakened because he had a daughter who was about the same age as Bai Xuanji.
Later he learned that it was Princess Eldest. Although she was a princess, her mother was originally a palace maid. It was only after the emperor was drunk one night that he had sex with her mother, which resulted in her pregnancy.
Her mother died suddenly recently, leaving this poor little girl to struggle to live on in the deep palace.
Lu Wudao felt compassion. He knew that the death of the little princess's mother was not so simple, so he secretly investigated and gradually found out the truth.
Bai Xuanji's mother was killed by the Empress, the very Empress whose face was filled with fear, resentment, regret, and hatred on the night of the rebellion.
As for the reason, it is that after Emperor Zhou sobered up, he saw the palace maid he had favored by his side and thought, "Oh my, such a pitiful and delicate palace maid is much better than those seductive and cheap women in my harem!"
So he bestowed the title of Consort Li upon the palace maid, and from then on she enjoyed his exclusive favor in the harem.
This aroused the Empress's jealousy, so she died. Emperor Zhou's response, however, greatly disappointed Bai Xuanji.
He acted as if he knew nothing about it, and simply buried Consort Li hastily, just because the Empress was a disciple of the Xuantian Sect.
Emperor Zhou's decision to make her empress was also a deal with the Xuantian Sect. He exchanged the position of empress for the support of the number one sect in the world, which was a very worthwhile deal.
Even if Emperor Zhou favored Consort Li, how could a Consort Li with no background and already dead be more important than the Empress of Xuantian Sect standing behind her?
Having investigated these matters thoroughly, Lu Wudao felt even more sympathy for Bai Xuanji.
So he always looked for opportunities to chat with Bai Xuanji, and gradually gained her trust.
Bai Xuanji often shared her views with him, some of which greatly inspired him.
For example, the idea of creating the ranking list was suggested to the Six Doors by the young Bai Xuanji.
He also declared that Princess Bai Xuanji was his disciple.
From then on, no one in the palace dared to offend Bai Xuanji openly.
After all, although she was just an unfavored princess, the person standing behind her was the "Death Judge" Lu Wudao! Why would anyone risk offending Lu Wudao to bully an unfavored princess who had no power?
What no one knew was that all of this was actually Bai Xuanji's scheme to win over Lu Wudao.
So the reason she acted pitiful that day was because she knew that Lu Wudao had a daughter who was about the same age as her.
The reason she created the ranking list was because Wu Qiong had mentioned it to her in her previous life, and she remembered it.
Her goal was to eventually overthrow the Zhou emperor and remove all obstacles between her and Wu Qiong.
And she achieved her goal.
That's right, Lu Wudao has always treated her like his own daughter.
When she was about to marry into the Qin state, Lu Wudao tried to stop her, but she refused.
Lu Wudao thought she wanted to leave this heartbreaking country, but in reality, she just wanted to see Wu Qiong again.
So when she returned, she confronted Lu Wudao, revealing that she was plotting a rebellion.
Therefore, Lu Wudao was among the first to know about the rebellion.
To achieve Bai Xuanji's goal, he even went so far as to have his daughter infiltrate the imperial secret service.
Zheng Xiaojiu is his daughter; her original name was Lu Xiaohuang.
Did he really not know that Bai Xuanji was using him?
No, he knows.
But so what?
He just needed to know that Bai Xuanji truly treated him as family.
Besides, he had long been disgusted by Emperor Zhou's actions. When did the mighty Zhou Dynasty ever need to rely on the support of martial arts sects? Then why did he break with his sect and come to the imperial court in the first place?
That's right, he is a disciple of the Xuantian Sect, and even the senior brother of the current sect leader, Ye Yuxi.
So why did he come to the imperial court, determined to suppress the martial arts world? Was it because he suffered some injustice at his sect? Or was it because he was in love with Ye Yuxi but could not have her?
neither.
It was simply because he always had a dream in his heart: that there would be no more conflict in the world.
To realize this dream, it is necessary to eliminate the existence of martial arts sects.
Yes, his dream was indeed a bit childish. But what can you do? Men are boys until they die.
Now that the overall situation has been settled, Bai Xuanji is indulging in men all day long and neglecting state affairs. How can Lu Wudao, who is determined to eliminate the two cancers of the Jianghu sects and martial arts families, still sit still?
.........
"Your Majesty, my father... Lord Lu says he has important business to discuss with you." The speaker was none other than Lu Xiaohuang, Bai Xuanji's childhood friend and the one who played the double agent: "Your Majesty, what do you think... perhaps you should see him?"
"Hmph..." Her Majesty the Empress kissed Wu Qiong on the cheek, got out of bed, tucked him in, and said in a displeased voice, "Let him in."
She was dressed neatly, clearly just a woman of empty words. She wouldn't actually dare to sleep with Wu Qiong right now.
That's right, the mighty, domineering, and powerful Empress is actually a coward.
"Your subject Lu Wudao greets Your Majesty!" Lu Wudao entered and kowtowed to pay his respects.
"I am well." Bai Xuanji kept looking at Wu Qiong and said lazily, "Let's talk about it tomorrow."
She's busy right now, and Wu Qiong is lying there helpless, so she can bully him without restraint. After all, if Wu Qiong were alright, she wouldn't dare to play with fire.
"Your Majesty!" Lu Wudao cried out in anguish, "You can no longer indulge in male beauty! The situation has just stabilized, and there are still many things that Your Majesty needs to handle!"
Lu Wudao looked like an ordinary middle-aged man with a square face and a build that was neither tall nor thin. If it weren't for his "Dao Fa Zi Ran Jing" (Daoist Natural Realm) and the imposing presence of the Chief Constable of the Six Doors, he could easily blend into the crowd, and you would never have any impression of him.
After all, he only designed it in the game to give players daily tasks, so Wu Qiong directly had his subordinates use the random passerby template.
However, it would be a shame if someone with such an ordinary appearance didn't go into intelligence work.
Therefore, Bai Xuanji handed over the Wanxiang Tower to him.
"We can talk about it tomorrow, I'm busy right now!" She would die if she couldn't absorb Wu Qiong's essence!
"..." Lu Wudao felt utterly powerless. Then, as if remembering something, he glared angrily at Wu Qiong and roared, "You pretty boy who's bewitching the harem! If you've got the guts, come outside and fight me one-on-one!"
"...Hey, you random-looking old man..." Wu Qiong said weakly, "I'm bedridden, and you still have the nerve to challenge me to a duel? Besides, you're a top-ranked expert in the 'Daoist Natural Realm,' have you no shame at all..."
"For the sake of the Great Zhou Dynasty! For His Majesty! What if I were to lose face and beat you to death, you pretty boy!" Lu Wudao declared righteously.
Besides being annoyed that Bai Xuanji had neglected state affairs for many days because of Wu Qiong, he also felt that his beloved daughter had been taken by some wild boy outside. After all, he had watched Bai Xuanji grow up and had long regarded her as his own daughter.
"Lu Wudao!" Her Majesty the Empress roared in anger, her words becoming increasingly reckless: "If you disturb Aqiong again, believe me, I'll make your daughter serve him in bed!"
Lu Wudao was taken aback: "Huh?"
Lu Xiaohuang remained silent: "..."
Wu Qiong's face lit up with joy: "That's a great idea!"
Bai Xuanji: "Dream on!"
