Tang Ning looked up at Xiao Yan in disbelief, her voice tight.
"Brother, Liu Tongen is the most trusted person of Emperor An. He cannot be ignorant of Emperor An's current situation. He has been dormant in the capital for these years and no one knows his details. Even you were deceived for a time. How could he be so stupid?"
Lu Jiu'an's incident broke out earlier, and when Emperor An sent Liu Tong'en to investigate the matter, something had already happened to the Lu family. At that time, the people who could be trusted by Liu Tong'en to be sent to Prince Pingshan's palace must be his trusted aides, and he would never send a few ignorant people. A fool would do such a big thing.
Then how could they step into the trap of King Pingshan and Lu Jiu'an so easily, without any precautions, and pass the handle into the hands of those two people?
Xiao Yan obviously thought of this as well, his face was filled with frost.
"Thanks! God! Yong!"
He showed weakness and pretended to be faint, causing people to stir up external rumors. It seemed that he wanted to win over the people and plot against him, but in fact it was just a cover. Emperor An's intentions were never in the capital.
This shameless person.
In order to deal with him, he did not hesitate to join forces with the traitor!
Doesn't he know what civil strife means to Wei at this time? !
Xiao Yan stood up with a whoosh, and Tang Ning also stood up nervously.
"Brother..."
"I want to go to Cao Mansion."
"Then I'll go with you..."
Before Tang Ning finished speaking, Jin Yun, who had gone out earlier, quickly came in from the outside and said urgently to Xiao Yan: "Master, there is an urgent call from the palace."
Xiao Yan's eyes turned cold: "You only recruited me?"
Jinyun: "No, all the ministers of the court have been summoned. Many people from the palace have come to the south of the city. There has been a lot of movement outside just now."
Xiao Yan and Tang Ning looked at each other, feeling cold in their hearts.
Emperor An had been kept in the palace since he was "in coma". In the past few days, he seemed to be in poor health and had not taken care of the government affairs. The prince had to take care of everything. It might not be good for him to summon so many people into the palace at this time.
Xiao Yan slightly narrowed his eyes: "Tang Ning, go to the academy and find Shi Changan."
He stepped forward and whispered something in his ear. Seeing Tang Ning raise his head in surprise, he whispered: "You told Shi Changan this, he knows what to do."
Tang Ning nodded: "Then brother wants to enter the palace?"
Xiao Yan sneered: "Di An has already set up the stage and set up the Hongmen Banquet. If I don't enter the palace, how can he finish the play?"
He walked aside and took off the cloak hanging on the screen fan, fell on Tang Ning and tied it for her.
"Tsukimi."
Someone came in from outside: "My slave is here."
"You and Tianqing accompanied Tang Ning to the academy and protected her."
"yes."
Xiao Yan and Tang Ning came out of the house almost at the same time. When Xiao Yan got on the horse, Tang Ning suddenly remembered Wang Yuzhen's father while sitting in the carriage, and quickly opened the carriage curtain: "Brother!"
Xiao Yan tightened the reins and steered the horse closer: "What's wrong?"
Tang Ning whispered what happened to remind her that Wang Yuzhen came to the house today, and then said in a low voice: "You said you wanted to find someone to expose the matter of sending things to Jiangnan earlier. It just so happened that Miss Wang was coming to the house today, so I I told her to tell her father to speak before the Holy Spirit. She has been back for some time, and she has probably told Lord Wang about this matter."
"I originally wanted to use this matter to embarrass Emperor An and give Lord Wang a favor, but now that I know that the palace is interested in the tiger talisman and military power, will Lord Wang order someone to send a message to stop him?"
Xiao Yan pulled the reins and said, "No need, Wang Huailu is a smart man and has a decent temperament. He will naturally understand what you mean."
He was able to maintain his position of neither high nor low for many years. He loved his wife and daughter even though he had no children. He taught Wang Yuzhen seriously and never stopped her from going to school. Even if she offended Prince Ji's family later, he never blamed her.
Although Wang Yuzhen said today that her father did not know about her passing the government, Xiao Yan guessed that Wang Huailu probably knew about it and acquiesced, otherwise he would not have told the court and the things he heard in the government office to a person. The girl who is still in the boudoir listens.
Tang Ning had protected Wang Yuzhen. Wang Huailu wanted to repay the favor but did not want to cause trouble, so he asked Wang Yuzhen to come over as a personal friend.
He is grateful and smart enough.
Xiao Yan rode on the horse and said, "Wang Huailu has never had the opportunity to be promoted. Since you want to give him a chance to succeed, there is no need to stop him. I will give him a chance to succeed after he enters the palace."
Seeing Tang Ning looking at him with some worry, Xiao Yan stepped on the stirrups and bent down, pushing the hair that fell behind her ears behind Tang Ning's ears.
"Don't worry, I'll go to the palace and see what Emperor An wants to do. You don't have to be in a hurry to go to the academy. It's dark and the road is difficult. The carriage should go slower to avoid bumping."
Tang Ning said "Yeah": "Then you should be careful."
"good."
Xiao Yan curled his eyes and smiled, then let go of his hand and sat upright. When he looked towards the palace, his eyes were stern and cold.
The reins were tightened in his hands, and his legs lightly pinched the horse's belly.
"drive!"
Xiao Yan galloped out on horseback, followed closely by Jinyun and two others.
Tang Ning watched a few people exit the alley, then put down the car curtain and knocked on the car wall and said, "Tianqing, let's go."
…
There is a curfew in Beijing at night, especially after the previous "Palace Change", the patrol in Beijing was even stricter. When the curfew was approaching, the city was already sparsely populated, but tonight was probably a sudden emergency call from the palace. Tang Ning was on the way to the academy by car. I encountered carriages from several courtiers' palaces, all heading towards the palace gate in a hurry.
Yue Jian was a little worried: "Girl, what happened in the palace? Why did you suddenly summon so many people into the palace in the middle of the night?"
"Di An is looking for trouble." Tang Ning said coldly.
Yue Jian was shocked. Didn't Emperor An collapse on his knees and fainted in the Ancestral Temple two days ago? What was he looking for?
Tang Ning didn't explain much, just lowered his head and frowned and thought about Lu Jiu'an.
During her two lifetimes in and out of the Lu family, she had never paid attention to the concubine of the Lu family. They met a few times but never had much interaction. She only vaguely remembered that Lu Jiuan's presence in the Lu family was very low, especially since nothing happened to Lu Zhinian in her previous life, and the Lu family also had no problems. Before he was in this situation, Lu Jiuan was almost a transparent person in the Lu family.
In this life, the Lu family had an accident because of her and her brother. Lu Zhi Nian was abolished long ago. Lu Jiu'an was never brought to the light. He was always hidden in the dark by Lu Chongyuan and used as the Lu family's trump card. Until the incident with Queen Lu, she and Brother just noticed that there is such a "capable person" in the Lu family.
Tang Ning has known Lu Chongyuan for two generations and is very clear about how much he values the family inheritance and family status. She always feels that given how much Lu Chongyuan values Lu Jiu'an and even entrusts the entire Lu family's future to him, Lu Jiu'an shouldn't be able to do anything to the Lu family. After all, Lu Chongyuan was willing to compromise with his brother in order to keep his bloodline alive for the Lu family. How could someone who had been trained and trained by him for many years abandon the family?
But it is a fact that the Lu family was destroyed. This matter is only beneficial to Lu Jiuan and Ping Shanwang.
