"Those trash from the Zhao family!"
Lu Chongyuan couldn't help but curse angrily.
That Zhao Yuanlang did all the things of killing women, but he didn't know how to eradicate it. In the end, he couldn't even stand a woman, which ruined their big event!
Seeing that he was panting heavily with anger, Xilin hesitated whether to continue speaking.
Lu Chongyuan said coldly: "What else?"
Xilin lowered his head and whispered: "Before His Majesty summoned you to the palace, the Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture came to the palace. Later I learned that it was Lu Yin who went to Jingzhao Prefecture to beat the drum of injustice and sue you for forcing you to do so. The dead eldest lady covered up the real culprit who made peace with Prince Cheng, and said that you allowed people in the mansion to bully him just to cover up the truth."
Lu Chongyuan looked at him sharply: "Why doesn't the government know about such a big thing?"
Xilin shrank: "Lu Yin has been living in a remote place, and he has been keeping to himself during this period. I didn't pay much attention to him, but who would have thought that he would secretly go to Jingzhao Mansion."
"That Wu Huai seems to have been prepared for a long time. He deliberately let the people in Jingzhao Mansion hide the news. By the time I found out about Lu Yin, the palace had already summoned you to the palace. It was too late to tell you..."
Snapped! !
Lu Chongyuan was so angry that he raised his hand and slapped the person in front of him on the face. However, he fell back because of his weakness, and his whole body was dizzy.
No wonder, no wonder An Di treated him so coldly, no wonder he didn't even have a chance to defend himself.
The atmosphere in the carriage was extremely tense, and the only sound that could be heard was Lu Chongyuan's breathing.
"What's going on outside now?" Lu Chongyuan asked in a hissing voice.
Xilin replied with a slightly red face: "General Zhao and Mrs. Zhao were imprisoned, and the Zhao family was also sealed. Your Majesty ordered people from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple to investigate the cause of death of the fourth prince and concubine. , Jingzhao Mansion was also ordered to re-investigate the old case of Prince Cheng, and there was someone in the manor..."
Lu Chongyuan felt a splitting headache. When his vision turned black, he tried his best to endure the discomfort in his body, trying to understand the current situation.
He grabbed the side of the car, his fingertips almost turning white, and he looked up after a long time.
"You just said that the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple were the ones investigating the Zhao family?"
"right."
"Where's Xiao Yan? Have you entered the palace?"
"No, after hearing that Feng Neishi came there with the Imperial Guards, Xiao Yan bluntly said that he did not want to enter the palace. Later, not long after Feng Neishi returned to the palace to reply, His Majesty also withdrew the Imperial Guards from Jiuyun Lane. Xiao Yan was not there from the beginning to the end. Showed up."
Lu Chongyuan sat against the car wall with his eyes closed, meditating while relieving his physical discomfort.
Xiao Yan must retaliate. Today he instigated the Zhao family to frame him. It stands to reason that if Xiao Yan succeeds in counterattack and seizes the leverage of the Lu family, he will definitely come back with doubled revenge.
There is also the matter between King Cheng and the Guan family. If it weren't for someone's instigation, it would never have happened by such a coincidence. Then Lu Yin was most likely a chess piece that Xiao Yan had buried in the Lu family a long time ago. He might also have known about it a long time ago. Who are the people who are dragging their feet?
But this is wrong...
Lu Chongyuan condensed, if Xiao Yan had known about the Queen's affairs a long time ago, it was impossible for him to use such an opportunity that could put the Lu family to death, and if he used it today, he would definitely not be able to avoid intervening. Instead, he would use it to investigate the matter. The opportunity was given to Jingzhao Mansion, unless there was some reason why he couldn't move or even investigate further.
Lu Chongyuan opened his eyes.
Empress Lu holds Xiao Yan's handle and makes him dare not touch her?
If this was the case, it would make sense for Xiao Yan to let go of this opportunity to deal with the Lu family, but why did he suddenly take advantage of it today?
Lu Chongyuan thought carefully about everything that happened today, from the time when the Zhao family took action, to everything after entering the palace, and even Song Tangning's interception of Yu Yanfeng and the others.
After a while, he suddenly sat up straight and his face turned gloomy: "What a Xiao Yan, he actually fooled everyone around!"
"Master Lang?" Xilin was puzzled: "What's wrong with Xiao Yan?"
Lu Chongyuan gritted his teeth: "That eunuch is not in the capital at all!"
Xilin was shocked when he heard this.
Lu Chongyuan was furious: "I'm afraid he has gone to the Southland a long time ago. Like Jiu'an, he shed his golden cicada shell and left a fake body to deceive Your Majesty."
"The people Jiu'an met in Shezhou were not his men at all. The one who could quietly deal with Lou Yong'an and the others and let them die unexpectedly must be Xiao Yan."
"I also said that he caused the incident in Lingyun Temple to cover up the traces of the south, but the thief probably left the capital on the pretext of being seriously injured after rescuing him at the beginning of the month."
I thought he was plotting against Lu Qin to vent his anger and cause trouble for the Lu family, but I didn't expect that he was just looking for an excuse to leave Beijing.
If he had not been in the capital long ago, with his protective mentality, he would never have used Song Tangning as bait to cause trouble in Lingyun Temple, nor would he have allowed Song Tangning to come forward to deal with today's crisis, let alone deal with the Zhao family and the Lu family. Chance.
Xilin suddenly became anxious after hearing Lu Chongyuan's words: "Xiao Yan actually went to Nandi, so doesn't he know what happened back then?"
Lu Chongyuan was also flustered. The reason why Xiao Yan was able to avoid Emperor An and go south even at the expense of deceiving the emperor was probably because of old things from twenty years ago.
Xiao Yan was afraid that he already knew that Emperor An was involved, so he didn't dare to act openly. He used this method to secretly leave Beijing and even deceive Emperor An.
"Master Lang, what should we do now?" Xilin asked urgently.
Lu Chongyuan said: "Change the route to the palace. I want to see His Majesty."
The Lu family's carriage turned around and headed towards the palace gate. In the forbidden palace, Feng's servant couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart when he heard that Lu Chongyuan was back.
After waving the messenger to leave, he turned around and entered the palace. Through the layers of gauze, he saw Emperor An holding his concubine in his arms and laughing.
Attendant Feng stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, Mr. Lu wants to see you."
An Di was annoyed: "Didn't he let him go back?"
Attendant Feng: "I followed His Majesty's instructions and asked Lu Langling to return to the house for a grounding, but he seemed to be dissatisfied."
"My servant has already told him that your Majesty will leave the Zhao family's affairs to the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple for trial. The old case of King Cheng will also be tried by Jingzhao Prefecture, and your Majesty has also rested, but Lu Langling is still entangled. "
"My servant said a few words to him, and Lu Langling became angry. He also said that he had to discuss some old matters with His Majesty, that he must see you immediately, and that he would ask me to blame him for delaying the matter..."
Emperor An's face suddenly darkened when he heard this. If there was any old history between him and the Lu family, it was nothing more than those shameful things back then.
Lu Chongyuan used these things to force him to give in last time. He repeatedly let the Lu family go, and even did not let Xiao Yan intervene in this matter. What else was he thinking? Did he really think that he could do whatever he wanted by holding his hand?
He actually dared to question the people around him, what did Lu Chongyuan think he was? !
Emperor An kicked away the concubine beside him, with a cold expression on his face: "Tell Lu Chongyuan to go back to the Lu family and don't challenge my patience."
"Some things can be either one or the other. I don't have to let him and the Lu family survive!"
Do you really think that he is afraid of him because the fish is dead and the net is broken? !
Waiter Feng quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at the pale and painful emperor's new favorite inside. He only lightly walked out and asked someone to send a new burner of incense inside.
Not long after, the sound of men and women gasping and crying during sex could be heard in the palace.
