Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

Liu Yaoyao asked Prince Rong to drug Chen Changli with the intention of using drugs to control Chen Changli.

Now that she knew that Chen Changli was going to expose the dangers of "opium" in front of the emperor, she suddenly felt that Chen Changli was giving them an opportunity.

She decided to seize this opportunity to completely destroy Chen Changli. This way, Luoyang City would be in chaos, and she would be able to find a way to take Chang Xuewei away from Luoyang City without being threatened by King Rong.

As for how to complete the task assigned by the master, Liu Yaoyao has already made a decision in her mind.

She immediately looked at the housekeeper with burning eyes and said righteously, "Prince Rong has been planning for so many years, it's time to officially test the waters. Otherwise, when the Sixth Prince and the Ninth Prince come to Luoyang City, the Emperor may still be high above, and Prince Rong's plan for many years will fail."

The butler frowned, his eyes were calm as water, without any emotional fluctuations, as if Liu Yaoyao's words of encouragement did not move him.

Liu Yaoyao was not panicked when she saw this, she just said patiently: "No matter how old and confused the emperor is, once he knows what the three words 'Afurong' mean, he will not allow the civil and military officials to continue to make money in the name of doing good for him. Then people like us will be picked out one by one to make an example of others."

Hearing this, the butler couldn't help but feel a headache. He felt a lump in his stomach, feeling very uncomfortable.

He had just reported Liu Yaoyao's words to Prince Rong and was scolded, so he was in a bad mood.

Liu Yaoyao suddenly had another idea. He immediately felt that as soon as Prince Rong heard the new news he brought, he would raise his sword and chop him.

"I understand what Miss Liu means, but no matter how good your idea is, His Highness may not cooperate. Although His Highness is safe and sound in Prince Rong's Mansion, he is living a very depressed life."

As the housekeeper spoke, he observed the changes in Liu Yaoyao's expression, and seeing that there was nothing unusual on her face, he continued speaking.

"Although Chen Changli will not harm His Highness, he is ostensibly loyal to the Emperor. Once the Emperor has other ideas or orders, no matter how unwilling Chen Changli is, he will do his best to accomplish them."

When the housekeeper said this, the rest of the words seemed to be stuck in his throat. He didn't say a wrong word for a long time and just looked at Liu Yaoyao silently.

He felt that since Liu Yaoyao had such an idea, she should consider everything properly.

As long as Liu Yaoyao could think things through and take action, the housekeeper felt that even if Prince Rong would be furious, he would have to find a way to help Liu Yaoyao and let her test the emperor's bottom line on behalf of Prince Rong.

Liu Yaoyao saw through the housekeeper's plan at a glance and sneered angrily.

She had long known that Prince Rong was a coward, and had thought that the butler, who was loyal to Prince Rong, would be braver, but she had not expected that he was even worse than Prince Rong.

"Then let me do this. There is no need to trouble you and His Royal Highness Prince Rong."

Liu Yaoyao glared at the butler, said no more to him, and left with a cold face.

The butler noticed the change in her expression and wanted to stop her and discuss things with her again, but when he thought of Prince Rong who was still waiting for him in the general's mansion, he gritted his teeth and went straight to the general's mansion.

At this time, Chen Changli had already returned with the arrested people.

His face looked very ugly, and his eyes were somewhat blank and empty, as if he was frightened by those people who had been taking opium for years.

When the butler arrived, he bumped into him.

Chen Changli finally came to his senses and looked at the butler coldly.

Seeing a layer of cold sweat on his forehead, as if he was guilty and unwilling to meet his gaze, Chen Changli asked Yingyi to take the man away, and forced a smile on his face, "Did Butler Zhao go back to Prince Rong's Mansion?"

"I didn't go back to the palace." The butler raised his voice, "I just went to see Eunuch Su to find out some things."

When he said this, he immediately straightened his back and said in a serious manner, "General Chen, Xu Qinglu is about to be buried, why don't you ask Eunuch Su to come over?"

Chen Changli frowned slightly, as if thinking, but said: "Xu Qinglu is a traitor. Even if Your Majesty grants her grace, it cannot change this fact. Eunuch Su is Your Majesty's confidant. He knows Your Majesty's thoughts very well. Even if I invite him, he will not come to the General's Mansion even if he wants to because of Your Majesty."

The butler looked calm and allowed Chen Changli to analyze Su Dequan's thoughts.

After Chen Changli finished speaking, the housekeeper said, "You have a point. In this case, you can do as you wish. As for the prince, I will go and persuade him. If he can hold on, I will take him to bury Xu Qinglu."

After saying this quickly, the butler stopped looking at Chen Changli and immediately went into the room to find Prince Rong.

Chen Changli stared at his back for a long time before ordering a secret guard to keep an eye on him while he went to the study to write a memorial.

The harm caused by 'opium' was worse than he thought. He saw with his own eyes those playboys who had taken 'opium' for three years. He felt that Wan Shufang and himself did not pay enough attention to it.

He had to make all civil and military officials pay attention to it in order to prevent ordinary people from being exposed to opium.

After writing the memorial, Chen Changli glanced over the contents and sighed: "I hope the emperor can pay attention to this matter. Otherwise, Liu Yaoyao and others will be alarmed by me. They will do anything to achieve their goals. There is no antidote for 'Afurong'. If the emperor's attitude is not firm, Liu Yaoyao and others may take risks."

Although Chen Changli thought of this when he decided to arrest someone, he did not take it seriously.

But after seeing those people with hunched bodies and sunken cheeks, he felt that Liu Yaoyao and others would become desperate after knowing what he had done.

He was unwilling to waste any more time, so he captured the man and immediately wrote a memorial. Then, after adjusting his mood, he took the memorial to the palace to ask for an audience with the emperor.

It happened that the emperor was selecting the next batch of officials to be dealt with. When he heard that Chen Changli wanted to see him, he let him in without thinking.

As soon as Chen Changli came in, he handed the memorial to Su Dequan and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I have something important to report. I hope Your Majesty will give me some time to explain the matter clearly."

"Has Xu Qinglu's matter been dealt with?" Seeing the memorial handed over by Su Dequan, the emperor straightened his body and asked in an ambiguous tone.

When Chen Changli heard the emperor asking about Xu Qinglu, he tensed up, but said calmly: "Xu Qinglu can be buried tomorrow."

"So fast?"

The emperor has been cleaning up the court these days and has not paid much attention to the affairs of the general's mansion. When he heard that Xu Qinglu was going to be buried tomorrow, he suddenly felt that his plan would not be able to keep up, and hurriedly stopped Chen Changli.

"Chen Changli, although Xu Qinglu is a traitor, she is also your aunt and is related to Prince Rong. You must take good care of her funeral and not be careless."

After hearing this, Chen Changli became more and more certain that the emperor wanted to use Xu Qinglu's matter to attack Prince Rong. He just didn't know what excuse he would use and whether he would implicate the General's Mansion.
