"Prince Jing?" Chu Yue asked again.
This time, Lu Xinghe did not answer.
But looking at his expression, Chu Yue also knew that her guess was probably correct.
"I heard that King Jing went to the battlefield when he was twelve years old. He has always killed many people and was violent and brutal. However, because of his repeated military exploits over the years, he is highly valued by His Majesty. He is also praised by the people as the God of War of the entire Nanyuan Kingdom. He has earned this He has won both the Sacred Heart and the people's hearts, so he doesn't look like someone who is easy to deal with."
Lu Xinghe held the tea cup in his hand and said softly, "He has made many military exploits, but most of them were built with the bones of soldiers. Not only that, he colluded with foreign vassals to cause wars and profited from it, and collaborated with Nanyuan officials to commit corruption. Money, secretly raising soldiers, one by one, no matter which one is revealed, it is a heinous crime."
Chu Yue was filled with astonishment.
"Listening to what my husband said, it reminds me of the previous disaster relief scene in Nanping Town. The relief food mixed with sand at that time was also the handiwork of His Highness Prince Jing, right?"
Prince Jing had been to Nanping Town for disaster relief before. After the war broke out in Northern Xinjiang, he was called to the battlefield again. Qian Yu was also injured at that time, and it was probably him who did it.
Lu Xinghe nodded.
"This is just one of them. Prince Jing was from an ordinary background. He was in the capital before. Because his biological mother was from a humble background, he was like a transparent person without the help of his mother's family. He went to Northern Xinjiang at the age of twelve and started a business there. With his own power, he has done countless evil things in more than ten years."
"I have found some evidence in the capital in the past three years, but there is still some evidence that I can't investigate until I have the power in my hands. Before that, I will not openly antagonize him."
Either don't take action, or take action without giving people a chance to bite back.
He had to collect all the evidence in his hands, and then look at the right moment to tear the person off the altar in one fell swoop.
Now I don't hide anything from Chu Yue, I just want her to know who the enemy is, so that the little girl will not be too close to these people and fall into their trap.
Chu Yue looked worried.
"Then my husband must be careful in what he does in the future, especially after Prince Jing returns to the capital. If he learns that you are investigating him, he will probably kill you secretly due to his cruel temperament."
Lu Xinghe held Chu Yue's hand.
"I'm telling you these things just because I don't want you to think I'm hiding anything from you. Don't worry. Now that I have you, how can I be willing to die?"
Chu Yue quickly reached out and covered Lu Xinghe's mouth, her beautiful eyebrows slightly furrowed.
"That word goes without saying."
Lu Xinghe smiled, took Chu Yue's hand, pulled her into his arms, and pulled her into his arms.
"Okay, let's not talk about it anymore."
…
For the next four or five days, Lu Xinghe would go out early and come back late every day.
Chu Yue didn't know what he was doing or where he was, but they had gone through so many things, and she believed in him.
A few days later, rumors about Lu Xinghe and Miss Yuan Xueer of the Yuan family began to spread in the capital.
It is said that Lu Xinghe invites Ms. Yuan to restaurants and teahouses every day, to enjoy flowers, go on outings, and listen to music on cruises. The two of them are good-looking and talented. Lu Xinghe is also the favorite disciple of the then Prime Minister Yuan. If he can cultivate a good relationship, it will be the icing on the cake. .
Chu Yue heard this rumor from a patient when she was seeing a patient in the medical clinic. Her hand holding the silver needle shook and she almost missed the shot.
But soon, she calmed down, and after pricking the person in front of her with silver needles, she used the excuse of being exhausted to go to the second floor to rest.
Chu Yue drank tea, feeling a little upset.
"Kuromu, go and find out what's going on."
"yes."
Kuroki clasped his fists, turned around and left the hospital.
Ningdong came to Chu Yue and filled her glass with water.
"Princess, my servant saw that my uncle was very passionate about the princess. There must be some misunderstanding."
Chu Yue looked at the quilt in her hands and said softly, "Of course I believe him, but I don't rule out the possibility that others will use their power to pressure others and force him to do things he doesn't want to do."
But why is it Yuan Xueer?
Chu Yue was a little confused.
Soon, Kuroki, who was inquiring about the news, came back.
"The rumors in the capital are consistent with what the master heard at the hospital. This matter is true. My subordinates also found out that Mr. Lu and Miss Yuan are currently staying at Ruyi Residence."
Chu Yue's hand held the teacup tightly, and her knuckles turned slightly white from exerting too much force.
Ningdong frowned and glanced at Heimu, feeling a little bit resentful in his heart that he didn't take it too seriously to watch the excitement.
Heimu seemed as if he hadn't seen him, and didn't even notice Ningdong's eyes.
At this moment, the boy hurried up to the second floor and handed an invitation to Chu Yue.
"Princess, this is an invitation from Prince Su's Mansion."
"Prince Su's Mansion?" Chu Yue took the invitation and unfolded it to take a look, "Appreciating the flowers?"
Ningdong hurriedly stepped forward and explained with a smile, "I heard that Princess Su liked crabapple flowers, so Prince Su asked people to plant a garden full of crabapple flowers. Every year in April and May, when the flowers bloom, Prince Su's Mansion will hold a banquet and invite everyone to enjoy them. Hua, the princess happened to be in the capital this year, so she also joined the invitation list."
Prince Su is the twin brother of His Majesty and the only prince of Nanyuan Kingdom. Although his interest is not in government affairs, his status is only below that of the emperor.
He invited people to banquets, and almost no one refused.
"But Princess Su is not..."
As if she was afraid of saying taboo words, Chu Yue hesitated to speak.
Ningdong looked at Chu Yue and continued, "After Princess Su passed away, Prince Su never married again because of the love between the two of them. He only had Princess Wushuang's daughter under his knees. Nowadays, everything in the palace is all about Prince Su’s concubine Cui Concubine is cooking.”
Chu Yue looked at her in surprise.
"You have inquired clearly about the affairs in Jingzhong."
Ningdong's face was full of pride, "That's because I have spent a lot of effort in the past few months to know the situation of people in the capital."
Chu Yue put down the tea cup in her hand, with confusion on her face, "Prince Su's concubine has no heirs?"
Ningdong scratched his head in embarrassment.
"I don't know this slave."
Heimu crossed his arms across his chest, looked at Chu Yue and said softly, "It is said that Cui Qingya was injured in giving birth more than ten years ago and was unable to have children. It is normal to have no children."
Chu Yue said oh.
"I see."
After the death of the main concubine, there was only one female mistress in the house, the concubine. She was still allowed to have a banquet and enjoy flowers every year on the pretext of the deceased main concubine. Prince Su was probably not as affectionate towards Princess Su as he appeared to be.
But she still had to go to the flower viewing in two days.
Apart from anything else, she and Prince Su Gu Jinghuan are now partners.
Chu Yue put away the invitation and looked up at Heimu.
"He and Miss Yuan are really in Ruyiju now?"
Kuroki pressed his chin toward the stairs, "Master, if you don't believe it, just go and take a look."
