Quietly gazing at Han You's raised hand gradually falling down, Fu Xiang felt uncomfortable as she recalled the scenes of the three sisters huddling together for warmth in the past.

Li Xue wiped away the cold tear that slipped from the corner of Han You's eyes, and felt her breath in her nose. Only after confirming that there was no breath did she stand up unwillingly.

Seeing her reluctant look, Tingxu was very impatient: "Drag her to the mass grave."

Li Xue felt heartbroken when she heard this and quickly turned to Fu Xiang: "Aunt Xiang."

"Wait a minute."

Fuxiang took out a silver ingot from her bosom and slowly walked up to Tingxu: "Tingxu, we have known each other for a while, so please give Hanyou some respect and bury her properly for me and Lixue."

Then he stuffed the silver into his hand.

Ting Xu hesitated for a moment, took the silver, and sighed suddenly: "Madam Xiang, the prince is soft-hearted, but not confused. Even if it is someone close to him, if he does something that harms the interests of the palace, he will never forgive him easily."

These words sounded very strange to Fuxiang.

Yes, the prince has indeed changed, and such a change is not a bad thing.

Can......

Looking towards Shuhua Garden and thinking of that hateful face, she said silently: I just hope that the prince will not be deceived again.

Looking at Han You who had already passed away and Li Xue who was limping, she secretly clenched her fists, and looked towards Shuhuayuan with a vicious look, and met Chu Huaixi's eyes who was just coming out of the house.

The two stared at each other for a long time before Fuxiang looked away.

She thought, the fox will eventually show its tail, just wait and see.

"Thank you Tingxu for your reminder."

After bowing respectfully, Fuxiang took Lixue and left without looking back.

Han Nian chased out of Shuhuayuan and soon caught up with Lu Linchu.

Seeing his extremely annoyed look, Han Nian had to explain carefully: "Brother, I really didn't do this..."

Hearing her soft voice, Lu Linchu stopped walking, looked at the half of her face that had just been slapped, and gently stroked it: "I know."

"Then why did you leave Nian Nian and go?" Han Nian pouted sullenly.

"It is my fault."

Lu Linchu comforted him, "Don't bother with that idiot."

"Of course not. She is the eldest daughter of the Ye family and my brother's cousin. How dare I?"

Han Nian smiled and took his arm, pretending to remind him casually: "But what Miss Ye said is indeed thought-provoking. Why would the Fourth Young Master refuse this marriage? And about the Earl's Mansion, if the Crown Prince's Concubine is really selfless, why didn't she discuss it directly with you, brother, but let the Fourth Young Master and the Liren Gang do it instead?"

Lu Linchu was already suspicious of the Fourth Prince and the Crown Prince's Consort, and these words undoubtedly made him even more suspicious.

On that day, the Crown Prince's Consort ordered him to go to the palace to suffer that punishment, but brought him to Jiangzuo quietly. She was making a fool of him.

Thinking about the fireworks that Lao Si had set up all over the city, he felt even more angry.

I'm afraid that these two have been having an affair and have been hiding it from me. No wonder she refuses to consummate the marriage with me.

"Nian Nian, you go back first."

Lu Linchu patted her shoulder gently, turned around and ran straight to Changchun Palace.

When they arrived there, Lu Chen just walked out of the palace.

The father and son looked at each other, and immediately turned their attention to the people in the yard.

Seeing Lu Linzhi, who was beaten to pieces, Lu Chen was about to call for a halt, but Lu Linchu stepped forward and said, "Father, what the fourth brother did this time was really outrageous. If we don't take him to the capital, I'm afraid we won't be able to give an explanation to the court."

Lu Linfeng was stunned when he heard this: "Sir, you didn't have this attitude just now in the Changshi Mansion."

He clearly supported the fourth brother's plan to save the Earl's Mansion.

Thinking of this, he immediately bowed to Lu Chen and said, "Uncle, what Steward You reported shows that it was a wise move for the Crown Prince's wife and the Princess to save the couple of the Earl of Changping."

He directly tied the princess and the prince's wife together, but did not mention the Li Ren Gang, which made Lu Chen feel much more comfortable.

These two women were the smartest people in the palace. They were not in Kyoto at the time, and the prince was blinded by lust. They saw the situation clearly and felt that saving the Marquis of Changping and his wife would help the future, so they could only rely on the Liren Gang.

Seeing this, Lu Linfeng continued, "Although some of my words may annoy my uncle, I have to speak frankly for the sake of the people of Liyang. The emperor is really stupid. The situation in the northern border is already unstable. How dare he reduce the power of the vassal states at this time? Yundu City is in danger. We cannot hand over the Earl of Changping to the court right now."

"Shut up."

Lu Chen scolded, and ordered first: "Lin Feng, take Lin Zhi back to rest first."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Linchu spoke up again in dissatisfaction to stop him: "Father, are you going to let the fourth brother off so easily?"

Glancing down at the kneeling Fu Guiyun, he coldly rebuked: "If you really have no selfish motives, why don't you discuss it with this prince, but go to find the fourth prince? Do you trust him so much?"

His eyes were wide open, filled with anger.

"You bastard."

Lu Chen was so angry that he yelled, "What's there to discuss with you? You spend all day flirting with other girls. What can Yun'er expect from you?"

With just one sentence, Lu Linchu was rendered speechless.

Yeah, what can he do.

Even to capture Dali and provide relief to the victims, he had to rely on the fourth brother. He was just a waste.

"Sir, now is not the time to hold the Earl of Changping and his wife accountable."

You Dian also advised: "The traitor Song Weizhao is about to attack Yundu, but Your Majesty has assembled 550,000 troops on the southern border. Now the situation of the entire Dakang is in danger."

"Five hundred and fifty thousand?"

Hearing this number, Lu Linchu's heart suddenly trembled: "Isn't it 200,000?"

You Dian said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty has asked the general to mobilize all the troops of the Second Battalion in Kyoto."

Lu Linchu said, "In this case, we should immediately take the Fourth Master and the Marquis of Changping and his wife to the capital."

"Does the Crown Prince think that escorting Lu Changshi and the couple of the Earl of Changping to the capital will dispel His Majesty's determination to reduce the feudal system?"

Fu Guiyun could no longer bear it and angrily shouted, "Your Highness has been dealing with the imperial court for a long time, and you don't know Emperor Hui yet? Is he hoarding troops on the border this time to force you to hand over the Earl of Changping? Hand over Lu Changshi?"

Although her feelings for Lu Linchu were not very deep, she always abided by her duties and never had any thoughts of being unfaithful.

From what he said, it seemed that he suspected that he and Lu Linzhi had an affair, which was absolutely ridiculous.

"Why can't the prince tolerate Lu Changshi? What has he done wrong? I am the mistress of the palace, he is the palace Changshi, and he is also the heir of the Lu family. If I can't even trust him, who else can I trust?"

Fu Guiyun confronted him: "Using the power of the Liren Gang to rescue the couple of the Earl of Changping is just to avoid involving the palace. What exactly do you want to suspect, my Lord, by guessing people's minds like this?"

At this time, Qing Su was brought in by the palace servants.

"Greetings, Prince."

After greeting everyone according to the martial arts etiquette, she silently glanced at Lu Linzhi, and seeing that he was covered with bruises, her heart ached.
