Su Qingyu's tears kept falling, and just hearing her choked voice made Lu Yuncheng's heart feel as uncomfortable as being pricked by a needle.
We agreed to be ourselves from now on, but why are we still pretending now?
If it weren't for Su Qingyu's safety and plan, Lu Yuncheng might not be able to pretend anymore.
"Your Majesty, the first thing my daughter-in-law wants is to ask your Majesty to find out who is behind the assassination! In order to bring justice to His Highness Prince Ling!"
Emperor Ming's eyebrows did not relax because of this: "This is natural! If you dare to assassinate the current prince, I will have people find out the truth, and I will never give you mercy!"
Su Qingyu nodded hurriedly: "The second thing is, please Your Majesty and the Queen Mother not to be too kind to His Highness Prince Ling and his daughter-in-law."
Emperor Ming was puzzled: "What do you mean?"
Su Qingyu burst into tears: "In the past, although the life of my daughter-in-law and His Highness was quieter, and they were often laughed at by others, they still had a life. But now, Your Majesty and the Queen Mother just say a few words to His Highness, and His Highness meets He was assassinated and almost lost his life..."
"Your Majesty, it is His Highness Prince Ling and his daughter-in-law who are blessed. I beg Your Majesty not to be nice to His Highness Prince Ling and his daughter-in-law in the future."
"You..." Emperor Ming couldn't accept her words for a moment, so he could only ask another question: "If you don't talk about this first, please tell me what the third thing is."
Su Qingyu's tone seemed to be full of despair: "After the prince's injury improves, my daughter-in-law implores your majesty to let His Royal Highness Prince Ling and his daughter-in-law live in a separate courtyard in the suburbs of Beijing."
These words almost eliminated most of the doubts Emperor Ming had on his way here.
When Lu Yuncheng encounters an assassination, everyone's first suspicion must be the person who can get the most benefit from this matter. This can be directly targeted at one person without any screening.
King An.
But this is too logical. It is difficult not to make people wonder whether Lu Yuncheng directed and acted the assassination incident. After all, he is not really dead, is he?
But at this moment, seeing that Su Qingyu's words were sincere and not fake at all, Emperor Ming allayed most of his suspicions.
"I will make arrangements for the investigation. As for the rest, don't think too much about it. Just stay in the capital with peace of mind. I will make the decision for you!"
After Emperor Ming left these words, he left.
The queen was so anxious that she had no choice but to take off the jade bracelet from her wrist and stuff it into Su Qingyu's hand.
"Empress, what are you..." Su Qingyu couldn't figure out what song this strange empress was singing.
"You and your wife are in a difficult situation now, and I feel uncomfortable watching it. If you encounter trouble, you can always take my jade bracelet to my mother's house, Taifu Sima, for help!"
After saying this, the queen hurriedly followed Emperor Ming's steps, and Su Qingyu had no time to refuse.
As soon as she turned around, she saw that Lu Yuncheng had opened his eyes at some point and was staring at Shen Huaide. The atmosphere was really awkward.
Shen Huaide coughed lightly: "Your Highness, Prince Ling, we are all our own people, our own people..."
Lu Yuncheng pointed out: "It is really not easy to get Mr. Shen to say the word 'one of our own'."
Shen Huaide was not the least bit shy: "That can only mean that His Highness Prince Ling married a good princess!"
Lu Yuncheng raised his eyebrows and felt much happier: "This is actually true."
Seeing his arrogant look, Shen Huaide simply couldn't bear to look at him.
But soon he discovered that the satisfied look on Lu Yuncheng's face was so familiar.
It's like the young man wearing bright clothes and beating horses on the streets of Chang'an five years ago!
This discovery made Shen Huaide suddenly cast his eyes on Su Qingyu. It was hard to imagine that this ugly woman could not only cure skin diseases, but also cure people's heart diseases!
"Master Shen, why are you staring at me like this?" Su Qingyu raised the jade bracelet on her hand: "Do you know the magical function of this bracelet?"
Shen Huaide quickly said: "The thing given by the Queen is naturally extraordinary. How can I know the secret?"
Su Qingyu took back the bracelet and put it into her sleeve, actually putting it into the space.
His Majesty ordered Shen Huaide to take full responsibility for Lu Yuncheng's injuries, so Shen Huaide naturally had a reason to travel to and from Prince Ling's Mansion at will.
Seeing Shen Huaide's glaring eyes, Su Qingyu had no choice but to give him the detoxifying decoction and the process, and then the other party walked away holding the prescription as if he had found a treasure.
The bright moon came in at the right time.
"master."
This time the master shouted more willingly than ever before, even Su Qingyu glanced at her in surprise.
"Didn't I ask you to lie down and recuperate for a day? What are you doing here again?"
Last night she went to see Mingyue's injuries. There were many sword wounds all over her body, especially one on her back, which was almost bone-deep. Only one night passed, and she was on duty again as if nothing had happened.
Mingyue was moved in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face: "My subordinate is fine, Princess, don't worry.
"My subordinates have received news that His Majesty has made a decision on the Pingchang Marquis Mansion case."
"No judgment?" Just by looking at Mingyue's expression, Su Qingyu could already guess that the result would be unsatisfactory.
Mingyue nodded: "Your Majesty has decreed that the Marquis of Pingchang has committed corruption, accepted bribes, and bought and sold official positions. His crimes are unforgivable. He has been sentenced to three thousand miles of exile and will never be able to return to the capital without a call. Although his family members will not be implicated, they must leave the Marquis immediately. You are not allowed to stay in the mansion.”
Is it just corruption and bribery and buying and selling official positions? Su Yuanrong had done countless evil things, and she had even anonymously submitted the evidence to Jingzhao Mansion, but Emperor Ming finally found two of the lightest crimes to sentence, and did not mention the others.
As expected, she was deceived by Zhuang Zhou's upright appearance. She thought he was the most upright person among Bao Qingtian, but she didn't expect that he was also useless.
After Mingyue left, Su Qingyu suddenly lost interest.
Is this really the end of everything Su Yuanrong did to the original owner, mother and son?
She suddenly understood that in this era where imperial power was supreme, unless she took action secretly, she could only comply with the results given by the superiors and could not have any objections.
etc! Do it secretly?
Su Qingyu's eyes lit up. She originally chose to leave the matter to the government in order to make all the evidence of Su Yuanrong's crimes known to the public. Now that the government can't get the results she wants, can't she ask for some interest?
Lu Yuncheng saw the cunning in her eyes with his own eyes, and he could probably guess that she must be holding back some little idea.
Although he couldn't bear it, he still reminded him: "The evidence of Su Yuanrong's crime is not enough to warrant a death sentence, but His Majesty let him live in exile for three thousand miles and spared his life."
"This is not only because his two daughters are married to two princes of the current dynasty respectively, so the punishment should not be excessive; it also shows that there must be some secret hidden in him that can protect his life, so Your Majesty bypassed his life .”
"Qingyu, you must not..."
Su Qingyu waved her hands and said nonchalantly: "I know, everything is based on the overall situation! I understand and accept this result. In any case, it can be regarded as revenge for them, right?"
That night, Su Qingyu turned around and called Mingyue into her room.
"Mingyue, I'm going to fight, but I still need a lookout. Will you go?"
