Dou Jianzhang frowned: "The current situation is not a question of whether the case is unjust or not, but a question of who will deal with it. I am afraid that the Duwei camp will be defeated."
oops! Hearing this, Hu Xiu's heart was in his throat. He had heard of Duweiying's methods.
Rumor has it that if you go there, you will have to shed your skin even if you don't die.
Flustered, he even said repeatedly: "Teacher, no matter what, students cannot enter the Duwei camp..."
"Okay!" Dou Jianzhang interrupted him irritably, took a deep breath and said: "For now, I can only bite the bullet and go to see the Queen. You wait at home. Remember, no matter who asks about the restaurant, Just say you didn’t know.”
"Yes, yes, students, please remember that with the status of your teacher, your Majesty will definitely not sit idly by and ignore it." Hu Xiu felt more at ease and couldn't help but lift his sleeves and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Although this matter will not cause loss of one's head, losing one's official title is already a fatal blow to an official.
It's strange that Hu Xiu didn't panic.
After leaving here, Dou Jianzhang did not dare to delay and rushed to the palace immediately to ask to see Lu Yunyan.
After all, he was a first-class official and an important minister of the Xuan Kingdom. Lu Yunyan treated him very politely. He received him in the pavilion and not only allowed him to sit opposite, but also let the palace maid serve tea.
After putting down the hot tea, the amorous feelings subsided.
Dou Jianzhang quickly raised his hands to show respect.
Lu Yunyan said in a calm voice: "I know that you have always loved tea, so I will try this Dragon Well after the Rain to see if it suits your taste."
"Oh, your Majesty, you are so cruel to me." Dou Jianzhang said, and when Lu Yunyan reached out to signal, he quickly picked up the teacup, took a sip, smacked his lips and said: "Good tea, mellow tea aroma, long-lasting sweetness, I think it is The best tea.”
Lu Yunyan smiled: "Since Mr. Dou likes it, take some back with you when you leave."
"How dare you, the empress, give me such a generous gift?" Dou Jianzhang was flattered.
As far as the former Xuanguo was concerned, he was actually Xuanjun's close minister, so what he said to Lu Yunyan was very weighty.
After chatting for some more, Lu Yunyan put down his tea cup and said, "Tell me, if you come to see me now, something must happen, so don't hide it."
"Ah, my virtuous empress, I can hide nothing from you." Dou Jianzhang lowered his body slightly: "It's like this. Today, Liu Changqing participated in the performance and falsely accused Hu Xiu of being an official and doing business and opening a restaurant in Qinzhou. In fact, Hu Xiu It’s not like that, and he can’t be that stupid.”
Lu Yunyan frowned slightly.
Dou Jianzhang glanced at her secretly, observed her words, and continued: "As far as I know, the Qinzhou Restaurant is actually owned by a distant relative of Hu Xiu. For the sake of business and face, he lied in the name of Mr. Hu."
"Imagine your Majesty, if this businessman has the reputation of being an official, some dignitaries will come to support him, which will naturally help his business a lot. This is how Mr. Hu Xiu suffered an unreasonable disaster."
Lu Yunyan understood and said: "How can an official of the imperial court engage in business? However, some businessmen do like to use this method in order to make profits. What you said is all true?"
"How dare I talk nonsense in front of the empress?" Dou Jianzhang returned seriously.
"If that's the case, then there's no need to worry about others checking," Lu Yunyan said.
Dou Jianzhang said: "Hu Xiu has a clear conscience and is frightened. Some people took advantage of this matter to deliberately create difficulties, and even involved the Duwei camp to torture Mr. Hu. Your Majesty knows this."
Lu Yunyan frowned again and said slightly displeasedly: "I will cause trouble! Okay, I already know about this."
Dou Jianzhang was an old minister of the Xuan Kingdom. When he heard this, his heart dropped. He quickly stood up, knelt down in the tunnel and said, "Thank you for your kindness."
"If you have nothing to do, please retreat. I'm a little tired." Lu Yunyan waved her hand.
"Yes, I retire, veteran." Dou Jianzhang bowed deeply.
That afternoon, the palace study room.
Outside the palace gate, Xu Hu was dressed in armor and had a sword hanging on his waist, just like a door god.
Seeing Lu Yunyan, she quickly clasped her fists and bent down: "Mother."
"General, there is no need to be polite. Is the king inside?"
"Here I am."
As Queen Qin, there is no need to notify.
In the study, Xiao Yuan was reviewing memorials.
The sound of footsteps came, and Xiao Yuan recognized the beauty by smelling the fragrance. He knew who the visitor was without raising his head.
"Sister Wang, why are you here?"
As he spoke, he also put down his brush, stood up and stepped forward, holding Lu Yunyan's little hand and asking her to sit down next to him.
"Brother Wang, although state affairs are important, don't work yourself too hard." She felt a little distressed.
Xiao Yuan said helplessly: "There is no way, these have to be dealt with, but it's almost done."
As he said that, he smiled warmly and said, "You must have something to do when you come here today, right?"
"You are my husband. I can't come see you if I have nothing to do." Lu Yunyan rolled her eyes at him charmingly.
"Haha." Xiao Yuan smiled heartily, and put his hand around her waist, "Let's talk."
"I can't hide it from Brother Wang." Lu Yunyan smiled playfully and said, "I have heard about Hu Xiu. He is an official and a businessman. How is Brother Wang going to deal with it?"
"This matter needs to be investigated." Xiao Yuan remained calm.
"Yes, we need to investigate, but we can't unjustly accuse a good person. If we want to investigate, we should do it thoroughly, so as not to lose the dignity of Qin officials." Lu Yunyan said.
Xiao Yuan was happy. Of course he understood that someone was begging for mercy. He still said calmly: "What Sister Wang said is reasonable. No matter the officials of the Qin State or the people of the Qin State, they cannot suffer unjust injustice. No matter how big or small the matter is, when it comes to the law, there is no room for sloppiness.”
"Then, does Brother Wang intend to involve the Duwei Battalion or the Yushi Mansion?" Lu Yunyan asked tentatively.
"What do you think of Sister Wang?" Xiao Yuan asked.
"It's better for the Duwei camp to handle assassin cases. If we try this kind of thing, I'm afraid it would be biased, brother Wang thinks." Lu Yunyan said.
"Well..." Xiao Yuan pretended to think about it for a moment, nodded and said: "Sister Wang is right. This kind of thing is the responsibility of the Yushi Mansion, and the Duwei Camp is really not suitable."
In fact, his original intention was to let the Yushifu investigate.
When my wife said this, she just went along with the flow.
Hearing this, Lu Yunyan was about to speak, but Xiao Yuan had already hugged her into his arms, smoothed the green hair around her ears, and moved his hand down her snow-white neck, gently downwards.
Even though they were married, she was still blushing in broad daylight in the study room and held Xiao Yuan's hand in panic.
"You, what are you going to do..."
With her beautiful face and perfect figure, Xiao Yuan was so moved that he couldn't help but kiss her lips.
During the passionate kiss, Lu Yunyan's body softened in his arms, but she still pushed him away, her beautiful eyes dodging and said: "No, Brother Wang, this, this is the study..."
