Seeing a large group of people surrounding the old lady walking to Dali Temple, Wen Yu laughed out loud.
At this time, Lu Ren's somewhat accusatory voice sounded in his ears: "Princess, didn't I ask you to go back to the carriage? I didn't see you in the carriage just now, and your maid said you didn't go back, so I..."
He was only halfway through his words when he seemed to realize something and got stuck. He just pursed his lips with a straight face and stopped talking.
Wen Yu turned her head with interest. Lu Ren was holding the knife and standing quietly behind her. The anxious look on his face had not completely faded away.
"W-what are you? You left me there and ran away. I can't move freely? Are you still reasonable? Are you coming to me to accuse me? Who gave you the courage?"
Annoyance flashed in Lu Ren's eyes, and he was about to kneel down, but Wen Yu held him back, "Don't kneel back and forth."
"This matter is Wei Chen's negligence. The princess can punish Wei Chen however she wants."
Wen Yu blinked and became more energetic: "I can punish you no matter what I want? Really?"
Lu Ren:......
Seeing the increasingly excited look on Wen Yu's face, Lu Ren had an unpleasant premonition.
"I have remembered these words." Wen Yu chuckled and asked again, "Are you anxious that I'm not here?"
Lu Ren nodded truthfully: "Of course."
Wen Yu's face was full of interest: "Are you nervous about me?"
Lu Ren had a serious look on his face: "Wei Chen loses the princess. It is a capital crime. The whole family will be executed. Wei Chen is naturally anxious and nervous."
Wen Yu: ...You are really good.
Back on the carriage, Liu Chun also looked anxious.
Seeing that Wen Yu was back, he quickly breathed a sigh of relief: "Princess, you scared me to death. If I weren't afraid that you would come back and I wouldn't be here, I would have gone to find you."
Wen Yu made her feel comfortable and hummed: "It's not General Lu who spreads the news randomly. How does this mess up the morale of the army? How can we go to the battlefield and fight like this?"
Lu Ren:......
"It's Wei Chen who lost his sense of proportion."
Wen Yu put her fingertips on Lu Ren's heart and said quietly, "Are you out of control or out of control?"
Lu Ren suddenly felt numb all over his body, and his heart felt like it was about to explode.
He immediately lowered his head and moved his lips, about to say something.
But Wen Yu didn't seem to care about his answer at all. She changed the topic again, returned to her serious demeanor, and asked, "What did you find out during the secret investigation?"
Before Lu Ren's heartbeat stabilized, he felt like cold water was pouring on his head.
He was silent for a moment, then raised his eyes and said, "We have found some. We need to go to the palace immediately to report to the Holy Master."
Wen Yu blinked, her head full of questions: "Why did you just skip me? Did you treat me like nothing?"
Lu Ren:......
He sighed: "Princess, it's not that I won't tell you, but this matter involves confidential matters, so it's best for you not to know."
The hidden meaning of this statement is that only the emperor knows about this matter. Others will be in bad luck if they find out, including her, the eldest princess.
Wen Yu followed Shan Ruliu and said, "I'm just an idiot princess. You go find the emperor's brother."
With that said, he drove Lu Ren out of the carriage.
Back at the Princess Mansion, Wen Yu took a hot bath and fell asleep.
After that day, Lu Ren disappeared for three days.
Three days later, Liu Chun told her that Lu Jin was acquitted.
After hearing this, Wen Yu stood up from the bed, looking excited: "Really?"
Liu Chun felt that Wen Yu's reaction was a little strange, as if she was a little too excited.
She nodded and said: "Really, didn't you tell us to pay attention? This is the first-hand news from Tianlao."
Whatever she said, someone from the palace said that the emperor summoned her to the palace.
Wen Yu cleaned up and came to the palace, where the emperor was reviewing the memorial.
Seeing her arrival, the emperor was pleased and said, "Sister Huang, you have done a decent job in this matter. What reward do you want?"
Wen Yu found a chair and sat down, very modestly: "No matter what, I will take everything you say seriously. As for the reward, the emperor can give it to you. Anyway, I will get what I want later. "
Hearing this, the emperor put down his royal pen, smiled, and said jokingly: "I heard that the emperor's sister helped a scholar who was taking the exam in the teahouse? I must have taken a fancy to the emperor's sister?"
Wen Yu was surprised, but did not deny it: "Brother Huang, how did you know? Did Lu Ren tell you?"
The emperor shook his head in amusement. He glanced at the screen in the side hall, looking at the excitement and not taking it too seriously, and said with a smile: "This time, the imperial sister did not use Dali Temple to investigate the case, but called the prime minister..."
As soon as the words came out, Wen Yu waved her hands: "Where did I call him? I couldn't hide in time? It was him who said he wanted to thank me, and then Lu Ren said too much, so I bit the bullet and agreed."
"Oh, that's right." The emperor continued, "Then what do you think about me granting marriage to the prime minister and Ling Yunshi?"
Wen Yu immediately clapped her hands: "Well done, brother Huang! Do you know what a great merit it is to become a couple who are in love with each other?"
The emperor raised his eyebrows. It seemed that the emperor's sister really had no attachment to the prime minister, so he said: "Let's discuss this matter later."
Wen Yu nodded indifferently and asked, "Brother Huang, that guy Lu Ren has disappeared for three days. Do you know where he went?"
The emperor took a sip of tea and smiled: "Sister Huang, are you in a hurry to claim credit?"
Then he changed the topic, "Speaking of which, Sister Huang, you have been checking for so long, but I intercepted you. Why don't you ask me what happened?"
Wen Yu paused.
Then he imitated him and took a sip of the tea at hand, with a strange look on his face, and said, "Am I investigating the case to find out what's going on? It has nothing to do with me, I'm just here for beauty."
Wen Yu's righteousness made the emperor silent for three seconds.
Wen Yu sighed and continued: "Brother, don't think it's easy for me!"
"You don't even know that Lu Ren and that Lin Yuzhi are just idiots. They don't care about heaven and earth, but they still care about my farts!"
"I want to enter a brothel, but two people are trying to stop me and won't let me go. I'm a woman, so what's wrong with me going to a women's den?"
"Lu Ren went even further. He agreed to take me with him on an unannounced visit, but he left me at Anxiang Tower and disappeared without a trace. After the incident, he blamed me for running around."
"As for that Lin Yuzhi, he is just here to torture me. He is so weak that he has no strength to restrain himself. I doubt I can knock him down with just one punch..."
emperor:……
"Okay, okay." The emperor was very confused when he heard these bits and pieces.
The emperor's sister was still the same emperor's sister, and he actually thought that the emperor's sister had improved.
Then he glanced behind the screen and said, "Sister Huang, stop talking. I have a headache. Please leave the palace."
Wen Yu raised her eyebrows, closed her mouth without saying anything, rolled up her sleeves and left.
Don’t forget to ask: “Where is Lu Ren now?”
At this time, Lin Yuzhi, who was standing behind the screen:...
After Wen Yu left, he stepped out with a calm expression, without any fluctuations or clues.
"Ahem, that's just the way the emperor's sister is. She's not interested in anything. Don't take what she says seriously," the emperor said helplessly.
The Prime Minister shook his head: "Your Majesty, you are too worried."
The emperor returned to the topic and asked: "According to the Prime Minister's observations during this trip, is Lu Ren trustworthy? Can this important task be safely entrusted to him?"
