A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and the old emperor's birthday was less than a week away. Kong Wen's efficiency could only be praised. After Lu Hanjiang "urgently" conveyed the news about Shangluo to him, he took action immediately. stand up.
First of all, he tried his best to dissuade His Highness Seventh Prince. In line with Xiaozhi's principle of using emotion to move with reason, Kong Wen finally said that His Highness Seventh Highness chose to give up. After all, although confidants are rare, you can always find them again, and there is only one throne. , if he loses the opportunity, it will never be possible again, unless he wants to repeat the mistakes of his fourth brother.
Secondly, Kong Wen, a wily man, tried his best to paint a cake for Lu Hanjiang, telling him that hundreds of masters would fall from the sky in a few days, and the Jin Yiwei would never come back.
Lu Hanjiang said that these were all leftovers from his play, and that Kong Wen, a third-rate character, was just doing his best.
But he still expressed with great excitement that he would tell the Crown Princess about the matter and ask her to cooperate with His Majesty the Seventh Prince.
Naturally, Lu Hanjiang's lobbying with the Crown Princess was unsuccessful. Huangfu Ling'er was not easy to deceive after all, so he settled for the next best thing and had no choice but to seduce His Highness the Seventh Prince.
Don't think that you can stay out of the matter if you don't get involved. Can Jinyiwei drag these many people into prison by looking for evidence? Of course not.
Traceable speculations and frenzied frame-ups are their special skills. His Highness the Seventh Prince thought that he could be alone. However, unfortunately, their biggest failure was to ignore Lu Hanjiang.
In other words, it is the role he plays as "Qiao Cunsi". As long as Qiao Xiaoqi comes forward to testify, neither His Highness Seventh Prince nor Kong Wen can be pleased with him.
After all, the premise of "both being disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect" was wrong from the beginning, so no matter how Kong Wen planned, he would inevitably fall into the trap Lu Hanjiang prepared for him. The difference was only the depth of the trap.
Time continued to move forward, and His Highness Seventh Prince finally made up his mind to tell Gu Zijin about the matter. He thought that the beauty would cry and complain, but who would have thought that Xue Luosha didn't even bother to say goodbye to him.
After all, Gu Zijin's original purpose was to use the Seventh Prince to rescue Shangluo. Now that her purpose has not been achieved, there is no need for her to continue acting.
The seventh prince left in despair, while Gu Zijin slowly became anxious. Neither the prison nor the small leisure garden could be broken into alone, and the only choice was to give it a try on the way.
But at this moment, Hongyi's informant sent another piece of information "at the right time". Tonight, Jinyiwei was going to transfer Shangluo from the small leisure garden outside the city to the imperial prison.
It seemed as if there was a hand pushing her forward, but Gu Zijin couldn't care about that anymore. Since she decided to save Shangluo, she had to break into the dragon's den and the tiger's den.
On the other side, Lu Hanjiang was fully prepared. He was currently in prison, with a trembling woman kneeling in front of him. Judging from her appearance and dress, she was at least an ecstasy character.
"Sir, my lord, I have all done as you said..." Although the girl was already filled with fear, she still mustered up the courage to look up at Lu Hanjiang, her eyes full of hope. .
After such a big thing happened, Lu Hanjiang naturally sent people to investigate Hongyi's details. She was from the Bu clan. When the family was involved in the assassination of Prince Jin, she should also be part of the same clan according to the verdict. It is only right that the middle-aged woman should not be admitted to the Jiaofang Department.
However, something went wrong during the escort. Hong Yi was kidnapped by an unidentified Jianghu person. Since she was not a direct descendant, the court issued a sea arrest document to end the matter. After all, the court's manpower was limited, and it was not the most heinous crime that people complained about that day. No one would pay attention to such a small person.
The woman in front of her also had the surname Bu, and she was from the same clan as Hong Yi who had joined the Jiaofang Division together. Unfortunately, she did not have Hong Yi's good luck. Over the years, Hong Yi relied on the help of the Seventh Prince to get her away from the Jiaofang Division. Many sisters, maybe they forgot, maybe it's not their turn yet, but she is still here anyway.
The information handed over to Hongyi was leaked from the hands of Miss Bu, and the content was naturally written according to Lu Hanjiang's wishes.
It was normal for a few of the Jin Yiwei's uncles to visit the Red Mansion under the Jiaofang Division. Miss Bu had to work harder, and it was reasonable for one or two patrons to leak out some news due to the drunkenness and debauchery.
Hong Yi has no doubt about this.
To make people commit their lives, coercion alone is not enough, inducements are indispensable. For a woman in the Jiaofang Department, nothing is more attractive than a pardon document from the Ministry of Punishment.
This was how Lu Hanjiang easily persuaded her to help. Naturally, he was a man of his word, so he immediately asked Bian Guang to bring a document from the Ministry of Punishment and hand it to the girl.
Miss Bu took the pardon document with trembling hands, and tears flowed down her eyes. She thanked her with tears, and Lu Hanjiang accepted it happily.
After letting the woman be sent away, Lu Hanjiang asked Bian Guang, "How are the preparations over there?"
"Everything is ready. Yin Zhixie has come to an end, and Ji Baihu and the others are also secretly coordinating it, so there is nothing wrong." After saying that, Bian Guang hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "Sir, do you really plan to accept this person?" Join the Imperial Guard?"
"What I say as a governor will certainly not be false."
Lu Hanjiang said, and added: "If he can survive tonight."
There are thousands of ways to employ people, some using loyalty, some using talent. Lu Hanjiang has a preliminary understanding of the strength of Yin Zhixie and Gu Zijin. Tianming Shou, who lost one of his right arms, is 90% not that The opponent of Snow Rakshasa.
But there are no absolutes in the world. If Yin Zhixie can really turn defeat into victory with this slim possibility, then Lu Hanjiang will not be stingy about giving him a place. Everything ultimately depends on his luck.
Bian Guang understood what Lu Hanjiang meant and retreated. Outside the prison, he saw the beaming Bu girl getting into the carriage.
"Miss Bu." Bian Guang called out to her.
"Ah... I've met the adults." At this time, Miss Bu was still immersed in the feeling of regaining her freedom. This joy overcame her fear of Jin Yiwei.
"I have a message for the girl," Bian Guang said word for word: "Don't accept the favor you can't bear."
Miss Bu looked puzzled, but she still gave her a gentle blessing and said, "Little girl, please remember your words."
Bian Guang didn't speak, just sighed and watched Miss Bu leave.
Everyone in the world says that people's hearts are evil, but this girl has experienced the harshness of the world, so why doesn't she understand? The evil people in the Jiaofang Division are evil on the surface, but in this vast world, people's evil is hidden deep in their hearts.
Now her whole family has been kidnapped, she is a lonely woman, and she is so beautiful. How can she protect herself without anything and no weapons? In the end, she has to seek refuge with that red-dressed woman.
But no matter how capable Yao Yuelou is, how long can he protect her? Not to mention that if Xue Luosha falls, His Highness the Seventh Prince may be overturned at any time, and Hong Yi can't protect himself, let alone her.
Besides, she had gained her freedom by betraying her own clan. This road could only go all the way to the dark side. Did he still think Master Lu would let her go? She was the only one among so many sisters in the Jiaofangsi who chose If she betrays Hongyi, then the Lord will uproot Yaoyue Tower, and she will have no choice but to be a pawn...
