In the carriage, Lu Xinran was full of doubts.
What did the Queen Mother tell her to do when she entered the palace?
Wasn't she calm and well-behaved from the beginning to the end yesterday, just eating and watching the fun?
Listening to her inner voice, Lu Xinlan had ten thousand words to complain about, the kind that would lead her to death.
As the carriage rocked, the two sisters had their own thoughts.
The sunset filled the sky, obliquely covering the entire palace, and the red walls and green tiles were dyed with a thick golden halo.
Lu Xinran held Lu Xinlan's hand and jumped out of the carriage. She looked up at the majestic palace with shock in her eyes.
[The palace that turned into ruins is obviously not bad, but compared with the one with living people, it is still a lot worse. 】
Lu Xinlan didn't dare to let her continue thinking, and hurriedly pulled her to follow the messenger father-in-law. The two of them were inspected at the city gate and then let in.
[It’s almost dark, why am I being called into the palace at this time? 】
[Can I still go back to Lu Mansion today? With so many things happening, I still want to go back and see the results. 】
Mrs. Pei should take the opportunity to completely clear out the hands of those two aunts, and then capture the entire Lu Mansion.
And Lu Jinchuan should still be worried about the murder of his precious son. After all, he was kidnapped by Song Junyan.
As a prince, he doesn't have to worry about his and Ma Jianbai's identities.
She entered the palace with Lu Xinlan, and the only person who knew the inside story in the building was not here. He was probably even more crazy now.
Thinking that the old scumbag couldn't take advantage of them, she almost laughed out loud with joy.
In the Yongshou Palace, the Queen Mother was twirling Buddhist beads with her fingertips, lowering her eyebrows and mumbling something in her mouth.
The emperor rubbed his forehead and looked at the string of beads in her hand. He wanted to speak out several times, but finally swallowed it helplessly.
The queen was sitting by the window, her gaze always falling on the sky outside the palace wall. She had been in a daze since she returned to the palace last night. The emperor couldn't guess what she was thinking, and he didn't bother to guess.
The situation he and the Queen are in today is all his own fault.
He didn't realize there was anything wrong with what he did. As an emperor, he had to make sacrifices for the sake of imperial power.
He believed that he had given the queen enough honor and dignity as the queen of the mother-in-law world.
There were three people in the room, sitting on each side, waiting for the person to be summoned to arrive.
The two sisters, draped in falling clouds, entered the Yongshou Palace under the guidance of palace officials.
Two slender figures, one lively and lively, the other dignified and steady, stepped across the palace gate to greet the three people.
The Queen Mother raised her eyes and saw two slender figures. She guessed why Lu Xinlan came to the palace together after just a moment's thought.
The relationship between the two sisters is more harmonious than what they heard from their hearts.
[Why does the Queen Mother look at us like this? There shouldn't be anything inappropriate about my clothes today, right? 】
[Although Ms. Zhao’s brain is not very good, my grandmother has been very kind to me during this period. She gave me several boxes of hairpin jewelry. The one I am wearing today...should not be out of date, right? 】
The delicate thoughts of a girl appeared in the ears, making the cold Yongshou Palace seem to become lively.
The Queen Mother smiled and gestured to the palace attendants on the side, indicating that they could bring in a soft stool.
"Sit down and let's talk."
The two sisters sat down obediently. Lu Xinran looked at her nose, nose and heart, then moved back and hid behind Lu Xinlan.
"What happened on the street today?"
"Going back to the Queen Mother, there is a life case in Zuichun Tower in Qingpingfang."
Lu Xinlan stood up and replied, feeling slightly uncomfortable with the words "Zui Chun Lou".
It was also at this time that she realized that in this time and space, it was shocking for the two sisters to enter the Spring Tower together.
The Queen Mother said oh, obviously curious about this murder case.
The emperor had heard about this before he came, and the jealous drama in the Chun Tower would only irritate the Queen Mother's ears. He didn't want the Queen Mother to hear more, so he coughed lightly.
"Mother, it's already getting late. Do you have anything to do with sending the sisters to the palace?"
He asked bluntly, earning a blank look from the Queen Mother.
"So what if it's getting late, the Ai family will send someone to take them back later. Come on, girl, tell the Ai family what's going on with this life case."
Lu Xinlan was a little embarrassed. The matter involved Lu Kanghe and Lu Jinchuan, and no matter what she said, it was not suitable for them.
[I don’t know how Song Junyan will be sentenced in this life case? That Ma Wenang was so scheming that he planned the whole thing and let Tianxiang and Lu Kanghe get into the trap. 】
[One who accidentally killed someone according to his design, and one who died exactly as he wished, without leaving any evidence related to him. 】
[Both he and his father know that Lu Kanghe is the son that the old scumbag loves the most, and he will definitely use any stupid tricks for his son. 】
[This time, even if it does not shake his position as Minister of Punishment, it will leave an impression of immorality in the emperor's mind. 】
[After doing this several times, when enough disappointment has accumulated, the position of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment will naturally fall to Ma Jianbai. 】
[Although the old scumbag is a bit confused on the matter of men and women, and it is despicable to spoil his concubines and destroy his wives, he is quite principled in other matters. Although he is not a clear and good official, he is not bad at all. 】
[But the character of the father and son... If Ma Jianbai becomes the Minister of Punishment, how many unjust and wrongful convictions will there be in Da Chu? 】
[By then, the entire Criminal Department will become the private property of their Ma family, right? Then someone with a high IQ commits a crime, and you can’t find out what’s wrong with him at all. How terrible. 】
Lu Xinran couldn't help but sigh when she thought of what she had just seen in Zuichun Tower.
Without more favorable evidence, even if Song Junyan could guess the cause and effect, this case would not be easy to judge.
The Queen Mother was confused and didn't know what happened, but the Emperor, who knew the general facts of the case, was lost in thought.
Uncle Zhongqin...is he really as scheming and cold-hearted as this girl said?
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, and the Fourth Prince are asking for an audience outside the palace."
"Why is he here?"
The Queen Mother looked at the two sisters strangely, and suddenly laughed as if she had thought of something.
"Let him in."
Both of these sisters are good.
Although Lu Xinlan's background was somewhat inferior, she had been raised by Pei's side since she was a child. She was verbally pointed out to the fourth child by the emperor a few years ago, and her words and deeds were restricted according to the standards of a prince and concubine.
There is nothing wrong with rationing the fourth child.
Song Junyan strode into the hall, his eyes swept over the two sisters he had just met in Chun Tower, and his eyes couldn't help but reveal a bit of surprise.
"Father, I have some official matters to report."
"It's about that building. The Ai family's curiosity has just been aroused, so you can tell us what's going on here."
The Queen Mother originally wanted to let her listen to the fun, but then she thought of the dead people and swallowed her words.
Song Junyan strangely glanced at Lu Xinran who was hiding behind and making quail, and briefly told the incident.
It was only then that the Queen Mother understood the pros and cons.
"Is there any hidden secret in this? Fourth brother, as the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture, you must do your duty with all your heart, but you cannot protect anyone."
Song Junyan: "...Yes, my grandson has written it down."
So, he was beaten?
His eyes fell on Lu Xinran again. What thoughts had come out of her mind before he came?
