Queen Mother Wei glanced at King Qi and frowned impatiently: "I know what to do here. You should have gone back to the fiefdom long ago. Come back early after today."
Li Linhuai's eyes stiffened, hiding the flash of gloom in his eyes, and stood in front of Queen Mother Wei and whispered: "The Queen Mother only listened to a few words from this woman, and let her die like this without a trial?"
"Shen Shoufu ignored the laws of the court and not only protected Bai Yu'an from disguising herself as a man and entering the court as an official, but also allowed her to escape unscathed and even married her."
"How can Chief Shen lead his ministers when he knows the law and breaks the law?"
"Shen Jue is now arrogant and dares to deceive under the eyes of the Queen Mother. Does the Queen Mother still want to protect Shen Jue?!"
Queen Mother Wei's face was gloomy and she glanced at Li Linhuai coldly. Even if she didn't understand government affairs, she still knew what Li Linhuai meant by these words.
He also understood that Li Linhuai had been delaying returning to his fiefdom by claiming to be ill, probably just waiting for this moment.
How dare he try to sow discord between her and Shen Jue.
The reason why she wanted to execute people secretly in prison was because she didn't want to make things worse, save Shen Jue's face, and also allow herself to use this matter to legitimately execute Bai Yu'an.
This Li Linhuai just wanted to pierce this layer of paper.
Queen Mother Wei's face turned completely ugly. She clenched the armrest with her fingers, looked sideways at Li Linhuai and sneered: "How dare you refute what I mean?"
"The political affairs of the imperial court are not your business. I advise you to go back to your fiefdom now."
"According to the regulations, the vassal prince cannot stay in the capital for more than one month, and he is not allowed to ask more questions about the political affairs of the court. If you want to pay more attention to this matter, don't blame me for not thinking more about your rebellious intentions."
Li Linhuai gritted his teeth coldly, the expression on his face twitching.
If Shen Jue hadn't been in Beijing, he would have brought his private soldiers in long ago. Once his brother died, there would be no room for his idiot nephew to proclaim himself emperor.
So much so that now he was scolded by the stupid and brainless woman in front of him.
Suppressing his emotions, Li Linhuai said to the Queen Mother Wei: "Have you ever thought about why Shen Jue didn't even come to your Qianqiu Banquet?"
"He said he was going on a tour, but when my people went to find him, he clearly went to Shuyang, Bai Yuan's hometown!"
"He already knew that Bai Yu'an was a woman, so he deliberately designed a fake news that Bai Yu'an was dead, and then took her back to Beijing to change her identity and marry her!"
"When Shen Jue deceived you right under your nose, he didn't take you seriously at all!"
As he spoke, Li Linhuai took another step forward, looked at Empress Dowager Wei sincerely and said, "Shen Jue is now extremely powerful. All the forbidden troops in the palace are his people. He has military power in the Changping Marquis Mansion. How can the Empress Dowager rest assured?"
"The Queen Mother, I am the emperor's biological uncle. Wouldn't you feel more at ease than Shen Jue if I stay in the capital to assist the emperor?"
"Shen Jue is so ambitious that he no longer takes you, the Queen Mother, seriously. When he becomes more powerful in the future, I'm afraid he will take you and the emperor even less seriously."
"By then he will become rebellious, and I will be far away in Northern Fujian. It will be too late by the time I rescue him!"
Bai Yu'an looked up at Li Linhuai, and suddenly understood why Shen Jue wanted people to watch his movements.
It may not be Shen Jue who harbors wolf ambitions, but Qi King Li Linhuai.
She is just a pawn in this vortex.
It was Li Linhuai's pawn to build momentum to suppress Shen Jue.
He couldn't help but look at Empress Dowager Wei. It was not difficult to guess what Li Linhuai was thinking. If Empress Dowager Wei really listened to Li Linhuai's words, the little emperor's throne would be even more unsafe.
The expression on Queen Mother Wei's face was gloomy, but her eyes looked at Bai Yu'an coldly.
Shen Jue didn't come to her Qianqiu Banquet because of a woman.
Empress Dowager Wei couldn't tolerate this at all.
She changed her mind.
She wanted Shen Jue to choose in person.
She wanted to see whether Shen Jue would choose to stay by her side and help her manage the government affairs, or whether he would disobey her for this woman.
Didn't Li Linhuai want her to choose between him and Shen Jue? She wanted to see how Shen Jue chose.
Queen Mother Wei waved her hands and fingers and said to the eunuch beside her: "Go and send Shen Chief Fu over."
Li Linhuai looked at Queen Mother Wei's movements with a provocative smile in his eyes.
Bai Yu'an looked at Li Linhuai's expression and suddenly realized that this was exactly what Li Linhuai wanted.
He wanted to see Shen Jue turn against the Queen Mother for his own sake, and then he would reap the benefits.
No wonder he wanted to stop Queen Mother Wei from committing suicide, and he might even let himself live until the last moment.
Seeing the eunuch go out, Bai Yu'an was about to speak and clarify his relationship with Shen Jue, but suddenly he heard the noise outside, and saw Shen Jue walking in quickly with a group of guards, his face as cold as frost, his footsteps Make wind.
Bai Yu'an couldn't tell what he felt, and he had thought about it several times.
If Shen Jue really had a conflict with the Queen Mother because of him, King Qi or Huangque was behind, and he was obviously well prepared. At that time, he was afraid that there would be a mutiny in the imperial city, and Shen Jue would not be able to protect himself if he was in it. '
If Shen Jue renounces her relationship with him, he will be the abandoned child and will definitely not survive.
The best thing for her to do now is to die here. She can't be a threat to Shen Jue, and she can get rid of him, make him feel guilty, and won't hurt her family.
Bai Yu'an looked at the guards behind Shen Jue, then at the Queen Mother's suddenly changed expression, and at the sinister smile on Li Linhuai's lips.
She could see it clearly, and so could Shen Jue.
She was caught here by Li Linhuai because she came here specifically for him.
Bai Yu'an pinched his fingers behind his back and was about to bite his tongue when his jaw was suddenly pinched by Li Linhuai. His cold voice rang in his ears: "It's not so easy for you to die now."
As he spoke, he stuffed a piece of cloth into Bai Yu'an's mouth and wrapped it around her head. He then pinched the back of Bai Yu'an's neck and sneered at Shen Jue who came over: "Shen Jue, you brought so many people here so quickly. Are you going to rebel?"
"The Queen Mother is here, and this is not a place for you to act recklessly."
Shen Jue's eyes fell on Bai Yu'an, who was pinched by Li Linhuai's neck. She saw that her hair was messy, with traces on her wet face, and her white clothes were covered with dust on the ground. She was looking at him absentmindedly.
She shook her head at him again.
Shen Jue withdrew his gaze and looked at Li Linhuai's face, and the chilling look in his eyes made Li Linhuai shudder: "King Qi led people to break into Earl Zhongqin's mansion, kidnapped my wife, and came to question me. ?”
As he spoke, Shen Jue took a step closer to Li Linhuai, with a cold look in his eyes: "I reminded you to go back early. If you dare to touch someone today, I will never let you go back again."
Li Linhuai smiled coldly at Shen Jue. Looking at Shen Jue's look, he knew that he was on the right track.
Shen Jue cares about this woman.
Also, a cold and restrained person like Shen Jue has not been with a woman for thirty years. If he didn't really care about this woman, why would he go to such trouble to marry her.
Everyone went to the Earl's Mansion, and those who couldn't bear to leave would go there every night.
