Lu Ze's words were not a threat, but a simple statement of facts.
Not long after the court meeting ended, the palace doctor hurried to Fan's house, and there were also three old pharmacists from the Overwatch Council there.
It is said that the second son of the Fan family who spent the night at Liujing River in the western suburbs last night had an accident. It was only after 10 o'clock today that the people who served him in the morning of Zuixianju discovered the abnormality. The steward of Zuixianju was so frightened that he quickly sent the person to the hospital. Sent back to Fan's house.
The second young master's injuries were not serious.
But I'm afraid that from now on I can only transform into Yang Guo and use my left hand to caress the charming beauty in Zuixianju.
At this time, the Fan family fell into a dead silence. Uncle Sinan's brows were filled with pain, and Mrs. Liu was crying even more.
In the room, Fan Xian looked at his pale brother lying on the bed, his expression extremely gloomy.
He sent people to quickly go back to Beijing, the master who collected herbs on Cangshan Mountain, but Fei Jie, the number one poison master in Qing Dynasty and also the number one pharmacist, still shook his head at Fan Xian after analyzing for a long time.
"It was too late to send him back. Even if it had been half an hour in the morning, there would still have been a way to save him."
"But now, even Daluo Jinxian may not be able to keep this hand."
All the officials in Beijing were frightened by Lord Tisi Xiaofan of the Supervisory Yuan.
I'm afraid no one would have thought that Lu Ze, who was silent in the East Palace, was also a vengeful master.
A gentleman's revenge is never too late.
The villain takes revenge from morning to night.
You must know that this second son of the Fan family is not only Fan Xian's brother, but also the biological son of Fan Jian, the Minister of Hubu and Si Nanbo.
Only those truly powerful people in the capital would know that this Uncle Si Nan was not as simple as he appeared on the surface. In these years, Fan Jianming had been in charge of the money and household department for the imperial court, but in fact he was secretly training Emperor Qing in private. Watch the tiger guard.
Although Fan Xian's identity is special.
But having said that, the man lying on the bed now is the real son of the Fan family.
Lu Ze's casual method caused the Fan family to show signs of division to some extent. After all, all the harmonious scenes in the past were based on the harmony and prosperity of the family, and when small cracks first appeared When it first appears, it will get bigger and bigger in the future.
"Father, aunt...aunt, I'm sorry."
"What happened this time happened because of me."
At this time, Fan Xian felt that he had no face to face his father in front of him and Aunt Liu with red eyes.
Although Fan Xian did not regret at all that he had added Lin Gong, the second son of the Lin family, to the list of the Supervisory Council last night, but when his opponent's counterattack came much faster than he imagined, the people around him were hurt because of him. Fan Xian felt very uncomfortable.
Self-blame, resentment, unwillingness...
Aunt Liu did not directly say words such as forgiveness.
Because no amount of forgiveness can change the cruel reality that is now in front of us.
"Which force took action?"
"Prince."
Fan Jian's eyebrows were lowered, and a slight shadow flashed between his eyebrows.
Uncle Sinan, who had always been quiet and discreet in the court, naturally couldn't calm down now.
Fan Xian did not tell him the details of the plan, but Fan Jian was able to deduce the whole thing from the information displayed in the court today. It seems that Fan Xian wanted to take action against Lin Gong, the member of Prime Minister Lin's family, but he did not It was unsuccessful and the opponent's counterattack was so quick.
According to the time, it should have been after the Lin family saw the blood last night that Dong Palace planned everything today.
"East Palace..."
After Fei Jie returned to the Supervisory Yuan, he came to Chen Pingping. The old man in the wheelchair obviously got the news immediately, and Dean Chen was the one who took the lead to let Fei Jie return to Beijing. But now Fei Jie The look on his face told him that something was not good.
Seeing Chen Pingping not saying a word, the anger on Fei Jie's face was clearly visible.
The director of the Third Office, who was good at poisoning, roared in a low voice: "I went to the courtyard yesterday.
None of the team that went to the Lin family came back. When has our Overwatch Council in Kyoto ever suffered such a loss? Should we just pretend that nothing happened? "
Chen Pingping's face was calm: "Today in the court, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince told the officials in front of His Majesty that they were a group of thieves who wanted to take advantage of the chaos to plot the Lin family's property in Beijing."
Fei Jie felt as uncomfortable as if thousands of ants were crawling all over his body.
Chen Pingping's meaning is very simple.
His Majesty has already determined the fate of the team going to Lin's house this time.
To this great emperor, there is no difference between the people in the Overwatch Council and the people in the court. Fan Xian's actions against Lin Cong are obviously beyond the scope of this plan. Therefore, those who fall in can only do This is the ending.
Emperor Qing was a person who cared about face very much.
When Lin Ruofu was driven away, it was originally in a very dishonorable way. Now it is impossible to ask for an explanation for those who died last night. Just as the second prince in the court today did not mention the dead Xie Bian at all. Like everyone else, there are some things that cannot be brought to the table.
"Your Majesty may still be happy to see this happen."
"Because His Highness the Crown Prince has really taken action in this muddy situation, hello, hello, hello, everyone. His Majesty naturally doesn't want to see this kind of scene of brothers and sisters. He wishes that the situation in the capital would be more chaotic. "
[In view of the general environment,
Fei Jie seemed to understand what was hidden in Chen Pingping's words.
He frowned tightly: "Your Majesty really decided to go to Dadong Mountain to seal the world? This is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Northern Qi and Dongyi City, whether it is Ku He's bald donkey or Dongyi City's That idiot is looking around at his sword, and he is gradually showing his age. What kind of grand master is he when one day he can't even hold the sword steady?"
Although Fei Jie was addicted to various drugs and poisons, being around Chen Pingping for so many years inevitably broadened his horizons and allowed him to view things from a high enough level.
The four great masters have all been famous for many years.
But in the final analysis, this great master is also a human being, and he will grow old and die.
If Ku He and Si Gu Jian can risk their lives to kill Emperor Qing, the monarch of the Qing Kingdom who aims to unify the mainland, then the Imperial Preceptor and the City Lord must be happy to devote their lives, but where is His Majesty's confidence? ?
Fei Jie pushed the wheelchair to the window so that the sunlight outside could shine more on the old man in the wheelchair in front of him.
There was indescribable sadness in his eyes.
Because Chen Pingping, the king of the night who terrifies the enemy, seems to have reached the end of his life. Perhaps he realizes that time is running out, so this old man has planned so many things in the past two years. Now, What held him up was just the last breath in his heart.
Chen Pingping raised her head with a hint of emotion in her tone.
"This **** sun is really beautiful."
.......
Emperor Qing's thunderous wrist made the court suddenly quiet.
Among those who were most affected, the second prince Li Chengze and the eldest princess Li Yunrui were the first to bear the brunt.
The second prince's influence in the court was uprooted, and Li Yunrui was not having a good time either. It is said that the eldest princess had turned a deaf ear to the queen mother, so that the furious Emperor Qing directly killed the sister After being kicked out of the palace, Li Yunrui moved away from Changxin Palace and went to the Royal Courtyard where Wan'er lived before.
Wan'er didn't say anything to Lu Ze.
But he also vaguely hinted that Lu Ze wanted Lu Ze to speak to Emperor Qing.
Lu Ze knew that his wife was an extremely smart person. Wan'er, who inherited the genes of Lin Ruofu and Li Yunrui, two very smart people in the Qing Kingdom, actually knew many things. Although Lu Ze had never seriously discussed his mother-in-law with Wan'er. , but Wan'er also knew what Lu Ze meant. Although she had no contact with the eldest princess, there was still an inseparable bond between mother and daughter.
"Mother
This time, I wanted to use the Queen Mother to exert strength on His Majesty's side, but I obviously failed. "
"It's just that she probably didn't expect that His Majesty's reaction would be so unkind."
There is still a little sadness between Wan'er's eyebrows.
Lu Ze understood that not all the royal family were cold-blooded and ruthless animals. He was happy to see the kindness in Wan'er's heart, but the affairs between the eldest princess and Emperor Qing were too complicated. It can be said that it lasted three days and three nights.
What made Lu Ze feel a little confused was that the mother-in-law seemed to have done this on purpose.
Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, who was once so obsessed with power, now wants to take the initiative to get out of the mud. Emperor Qing drove Li Yunrui to the Royal Courtyard on the surface, but in fact this was to give the eldest princess more convenience. Opportunity.
These two people.
A eldest princess who used to be very noisy now doesn't want to be noisy.
And the other Emperor Qing, who didn't want the eldest princess to cause trouble, now tried another way to get Li Yunrui to cause trouble.
"The world is so big and full of wonders." Lu Ze could only say with emotion.
"Husband, what happened to the Fan family... was it really done by our family as rumored?" After being comforted by Lu Ze, Wan'er knew that her mother's side was probably fine. What did she think of at this time? After thinking for a moment, he took the initiative to ask Lu Ze.
Recently, too many things have happened in Kyoto.
The shock in the court made everyone have to work hard to keep their current positions. In the overall sluggish environment, it seems to be very lucky not to have their families confiscated and exterminated. Those who once dreamed of being promoted to nobility, now Just thinking about peace.
Under such circumstances, the story of the second son of the Fan family gradually spread to people's ears.
Most people did not expect that there would be sparks of fighting between Fan Xian and Dong Gong. In the past two and a half years, although there was not much close contact between the Fan family and Dong Gong, overall it was not considered a close relationship. opponent.
In particular, Lu Ze's reputation in Kyoto now seems to be completely different from that of before.
Nowadays, the gentle and submissive image of the Prince of the East Palace is gradually taking root in the hearts of the people, so when the people heard the rumors, they all thought that someone was deliberately framing them, and they each cursed a few words, such as "Don't die in trouble, dongyi city's plate" if.
Facing Wan'er's inquiry, Lu Ze nodded directly.
Regarding this matter, Lu Ze had no intention of hiding it. He originally took action to stand up for his second uncle. Lu Ze was worried that he would not have a suitable opportunity to show his attitude in Kyoto, so Fan Xian fell asleep. Lu Ze gave him a pillow.
"Is it...because of the second brother's matter?"
It was true that Wan'er went to Lin Mansion that early morning.
At that time, Lu Zeshun mentioned something about the Lin family being robbed and killed. Wan'er hurried over after hearing what she said. She felt relieved when she saw that both her brothers were fine. Later she heard about the Fan family's incident. , the smart Wan'er knew the first time she heard that this matter was most likely true.
Although Lu Ze always showed a gentle side when he was around Wan'er.
But Wan'er was able to understand the majesty hidden under such gentleness in Lu Ze, but some things would only be revealed when facing enemies. Just like in the eyes of the courtiers, the Emperor Qing was furious and thunderous, and in the eyes of the courtiers, Emperor Qing was furious and thunderous. In front of the Queen Mother, she is just her son, so simple.
Wan'er didn't say much, just sighed softly.
"In that case."
"Isn't it true that Miss Fan's wife won't be able to marry into our East Palace residence?"
Lu Ze froze on the spot.
His expression couldn't help but become weird.
I could only pretend to be dumbfounded, and silently said to Wan'er beside me: "Huh?"
Wan'er stared at Lu Ze with half-smiling eyes.
Obviously.
Lu Ze's intention of rejecting the Fan family's marriage was discovered by his wife.
What Lu Ze told Fan Xian at the Moon Worship Tower was true. Emperor Qing indeed intended to marry Fan Ruoruo into the East Palace. There is a high probability that
It was what the Queen Mother said to the Emperor. The son wanted to fulfill his mother's wish, so he also wanted to fulfill this marriage.
But unfortunately, neither party involved wanted this marriage.
Coupled with the fact that the second son of the Fan family was assassinated in Zuixianju this time, the marriage was aborted.
"Fan Xian doesn't want me to marry his sister, and I don't want to marry his sister either. This matter between the elders of our two families has not been settled yet. How can I dare to marry another girl from the Fan family and enter the East Palace."
"And he wanted to kill my second uncle, so I disabled his brother's right hand."
"Overall, I'm still the loser, right?"
Lu Ze Xiaoxiong spread his hands, looking quite helpless.
A happy smile burst out on Wan'er's face. She didn't know whether it was because Lu Ze told her everything, or because Lu Ze took the initiative to push off the marriage. Although Wan'er knew that Lu Ze might have more than one woman by his side in the future, But which woman who loves her husband is willing to share this most selfish love in the world with others?
...
The Qingguo court fell into calm after experiencing that turmoil.
The spring season passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it entered April. In the season when the grass grows and the orioles fly, the weather gradually becomes hotter.
The extremely quiet Qingguo court once again encountered something that could shock the world.
Emperor Qing announced that he would be consecrated to the world on June 15th at the Qing Temple in Dadongshan.
This shocking news soon spread to Northern Qi, Dongyi, Nanzhao, Xihu...
Because His Majesty the Emperor in the Qingguo Palace has not left Kyoto for many, many years.
A faint smile appeared on the face of the old cripple Chen Pingping: "Father and son kill each other, lovers kill each other, what a great drama."
