When the sky was getting dark, people came to the princess mansion again.

The people who came were from the Lu residence, and they wanted to see Lu Qipei.At noon, King Wei made a fuss and went to the Lu Mansion to search. Although nothing was found, the members of the Lu family were inevitably taken to the Jingzhao Mansion for interrogation.

In the middle of the afternoon, the talents of Lu's residence were released one after another, but at that time, they didn't know whether Qi Yang and the others had returned to the residence, so they didn't rush to the door.It wasn't until it was getting late that Lu Qipei was supposed to go back home anyway, and then people from the Lu family came to the door.

Naturally, Lu Qipei would not hide this from Qi Yang, and the two of them met the visitor together.

Unlike Qi Bo, the younger generation of the Lu family are not so obsessed with hatred, and even those who are not high enough don't know the past at all.Therefore, they accepted Qi Yang well, and visitors would not be surprised or rejected when they saw the princess, let alone any hatred.He saluted in an orderly manner, lowering his eyebrows and bowing his head, not seeing anything abnormal.

Lu Qipei was somewhat satisfied with the newly elected housekeeper, so he asked, "Why did you come to find me so late?"

She asked this question really thoughtfully, as if she had no idea that the Lu residence was searched today.

The new housekeeper was silent for a moment, and then replied: "It's about the fact that the house was searched at noon." He raised his head and glanced at Lu Qipei slightly as he spoke. Said: "Before the yamen servants of Jingzhao Mansion entered the mansion, Xiaoliu found something strange in the warehouse. After opening it, he saw a pile of fire and medicine inside. We had just disposed of it on the front foot, and the yamen servant came on the back foot."

Hearing this, Qi Yang's expression changed slightly, and he turned to look at Lu Qipei.The latter did not change his face, and continued to ask: "Where did the fire and medicine come from? Besides that Zhang Wu, other people in the mansion were bribed?!"

You know, the warehouse is not an ordinary place, and normal people send their confidantes to guard it.Especially the key to the treasury, which was held by Qibo in the past, is now owned by the new housekeeper.Lu Qipei kept it in the Princess Mansion, and no one else could get it.

The new butler's expression changed suddenly when he heard the words, and he hurriedly leaned over and said, "The villain is loyal to the Lu family, and I hope you will learn from me!"

Lu Qipei didn't doubt him at all, if there was something wrong with the new housekeeper, she would be in big trouble today.It's just that Qi Bo is gone, and the Lu family's control has been loosened, and it has become a target for others, and she should hit one or two.

Seeing that the beating is almost done now, he said: "What is going on, please tell me in detail."

The new housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief, and then he said: "It's the rule left by Qibo. The warehouse has to be counted every day. The villain dare not neglect. He has already opened the warehouse to check in the early morning, and there is no abnormality. But at noon Shi Xiaoliu passed by the warehouse, but found that the door lock was different, so he recruited a villain to open the door. After we opened the door, we found a whole box of gunpowder in a corner of the warehouse!"

Speaking of this, the new housekeeper paused slightly, and said again: "We don't have this kind of thing in our house. We bought some firecrackers during the Chinese New Year, and they were all set off as early as the first day of the new year. Shangyuan, Shangyuan produced such a firecracker again. How dare the mansion keep such sensitive things..."

In front of the princess, it is not easy for the new butler to mention the Chaoyang Tower assassination case, but there were so many witnesses that day, who in Beijing didn't know that the crown prince and the first emperor were killed by the fire and powder hidden in the dragon lantern?Apart from being used as fireworks, this thing is sensitive at other times, let alone now.At this time, let alone hoarding guns and medicines in the house, any fireworks and firecrackers left in the house should be disposed of quickly.

Although Qi Bo is no longer in charge of the Lu family, the others are not fools, so how could they knowingly commit crimes?Furthermore, if the Lu family is really related to the Chaoyanglou case, is it because such clear evidence is left at home that he died not fast enough? !

All in all, this thing is full of slots.

Of course, Qi Yang and Lu Qipei did not miss the details of this matter.For example, the timing of the appearance of the box of fire and medicine was not even earlier, and it was almost planted in coordination with King Wei.Another example is the warehouse of the Lu family. The Lu family is not an ordinary family of officials. When the outside is loose and the inside is tight, it is not easy to stuff the bag of fire and medicine into the Lu family's warehouse without anyone noticing!

Qi Yang thought of something, his eyes dimmed, and he leaned into Lu Qipei's ear and whispered: "Dark guard."

The hidden guards of the royal family are naturally not unique to Qi Yang, in fact all adult princes and princesses have them, there are more or less differences.Now that the late emperor passed away, all his hidden guards should have been handed over to the little emperor, but other than that, the hidden guards of the kings and princesses have never been taken back.

Unlike other concubines or concubines, Lu Qipei knew the existence of these hidden guards, so he nodded slightly.Then I heard the new housekeeper continue: "The appearance of the fire and the medicine was too strange. The villain was also afraid that someone would set the blame, so he asked Xiao Liu to move away quickly. Less than half an hour later, Jingzhao Mansion Sure enough, the yamen servants came to search the house."

After he finished speaking, he seemed to think of Zhang Wu mentioned by Lu Qipei, so he said again: "There is Zhang Wu. I don't know, but he is a sneaky, raped and slippery person. He owed a gambling debt a few days ago and wanted to steal something when he returned home. , has been expelled."

So, it's not that he doesn't care about Zhang Wu's being bought or something, but that he doesn't care anymore.

After hearing this explanation, Qi Yang and Lu Qipei couldn't help but look at each other.

Lu Qipei explained a few more words, and sent him away.

As soon as the people left, only the husband and wife were left in the room, Qi Yang said: "It's obvious that someone framed this."

Lu Qipei nodded, thought for a while and then shook his head: "It was the king of Wei who came forward to embarrass me today, but I always feel that it is not like him to frame him. When he looked at me in Xuanshi Palace, he really believed I am guilty, not proud of being planted."

Of course Qi Yang also noticed it, and at the same time, she felt that King Wei's brain might not be able to perform that vividly, but on the contrary, his brain could be easily used by others.Immediately he nodded and said: "I'll ask someone to check it out. And that portrait of Xie Yuan, I also need someone to check if it's real and where it came from."

Lu Qipei laughed when he heard the words, and then asserted: "That painting is fake."

Qi Yang was not surprised by the answer, but rather surprised by Lu Qipei's determination: "How do you know? Didn't you not pay attention to this?"

Lu Qipei pointed to his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Half of my eyebrows are painted on, and the original shape of my eyebrows is more similar to my mother's according to the old man at home. It's not the case in the painting of King Wei today. , Xie Yuan’s eyebrows he painted are exactly the same as mine, how is this possible? Think about it now, Your Highness, is that painting based on me? "

As she spoke, she pulled a strand of long hair and put it around her lips to pretend to be a beard. She looked a little funny, but it was indeed more like Wei Wang's painting.

Qi Yang suddenly realized, and finally found out where the disobedience he felt when looking at the portrait came from.She couldn't help laughing, touched Lu Qipei's smooth chin after laughing, and said with emotion: "A Pei still looks the best like this, adding two beards for nothing is really ugly, I don't know what Brother Wei thinks."

What can King Wei think?Of course he was deceived, deceived into being the first bird!

Today's farce is actually full of flaws everywhere, but it still caused Wei Wang to come to this scene, of course it is not without purpose.

Lu Qipei put down the long hair that was used to make trouble, and his expression became a little more solemn: "A-Ning, have you ever thought about what troubles we will have with you and me if this incident happened today?"

future trouble? !

Qi Yang thought for a while, but finally his eyes fell on Lu Qipei's delicate and handsome face...

Today, King Wei testified against Lu Qipei on two things. One is that she is related to Xie Yuan, and the other is that she participated in the Chaoyang Tower case.But in the final analysis, it was to involve Xie Yuan.Because once Lu Qipei had a relationship with Xie Yuan, she would be inseparable from the Chaoyang Tower assassination case.At that time, it doesn't matter whether he is loyal to Beirong or revenge for Xie Yuan, he will find an excuse to get involved with Lu Qipei!

It doesn't matter if everyone doesn't believe it now, after all this trouble has happened, a seed has been planted in everyone's hearts.Moreover, there were quite a few people who had met Xie Hongyi back then, he and Lu Qipei had competed in the same field, and they knew that there were quite a few people who had similar looks.

Now the little emperor trusts Qi Yang and his wife, but if someone whispers some slander in his ear from time to time, how would he know that he won't take it seriously?After all, it's revenge for killing his father, and not everyone is like Qi Yang and can trust Lu Qipei as before.

Thinking of the various schemes hidden in the dark, Qi Yang felt a little sad.What was even more disturbing was Lu Qipei's next words: "Also, Aning, have you ever thought about what the crown prince said to His Majesty before he died?"

The prince was extremely weak before his death, in fact, he couldn't leave a few words at all.Among them, there is a sentence with Qi Yang Tuogu, and another sentence is to tell the eldest grandson to keep in mind the teaching - at that time, the eldest grandson was young, and the crown prince had a lot of worries about his son at that time, and there must be a lot of things he wanted to tell him, why should he emphasize such a sentence? ?Before that, what did he explain to his eldest grandson?

Lu Qipei had a strong intuition, she felt that the prince must have mentioned her to the eldest grandson, and he still told the eldest grandson to be wary of her!

Facing Qi Yang right now, Lu Qipei also expressed his guess: "It's nothing unexpected. The prince's health has always been poor, and he doesn't even know how long he can last. Maybe he is afraid that there will be no time to explain when things come to an end, so stay No one knows about my scourge, so I told my son in advance when I was teaching my son."

After thinking about it, Qi Yang felt that it was not impossible, his face suddenly turned ugly, and he muttered: "Brother Huang, do you believe me?"

Lu Qipei laughed when he heard the words, and leaned on Qi Yang's shoulder: "Perhaps in the eyes of the prince, His Highness is already insane?"

Qi Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he pushed her away angrily, and said worriedly: "Then Aqi knows everything? If there is no need for Wei Wang to make such a fuss today, he may have doubts about you..." Speaking of There is a slight pause here: "It doesn't feel like it!"

The little emperor is still young, and he is not a scheming person, how can he disguise his emotions meticulously?

But Lu Qipei said clearly: "The crown prince definitely didn't say it clearly at the beginning, otherwise he wouldn't dare to rely on you in the end." After finishing speaking, he said: "Now His Majesty will trust you and me, but when the young emperor grows up in the future, we will be with you. The Eldest Princess, who has the power to assist the government, has a conflict, and maybe one day he will remember what his father said, and if he is upset, it will be a catastrophe for you and me."

After hearing this, Qi Yang was a little breathless, and frowned again: "Why do you talk about it, it seems that you and I have internal and external troubles, and are in a more difficult situation than Aqi?"

The author has something to say: Lu Qipei (sigh): Isn’t it?So Your Highness, we should pack our bags in advance and run when we have to run!

Qi Yang (...): You still have to assist Aqi to take charge of the government, isn't it too early for you to mention it too early? !
