wealthy queen

"Do you think the Lu family did not deceive the emperor?"

Looking down at him, Pei Yuanlie's eyes were full of murderous intent, wanting to take the blame alone, without seeing whether she was qualified or not.

"Your Majesty, this veteran is willing to retire and return to his hometown. I beg Your Majesty to spare the Lu family."

Knowing that the general situation was over, Lu Shuren knelt down and kowtowed. Only in this way, maybe the lives of the whole family could be saved. Even if he was full of unwillingness, he regretted not seeing the emperor's cruelty earlier, and did not find out Shen Liang's background before he acted. What I regret is why I raised such a granddaughter who killed the whole family.

"Father?!"

"Master?!"

It was said that Pei Yuanlie and his wife hadn't said anything yet, but the Lu family looked at him in disbelief. If he retired and returned home, what future would the Lu family have?The emperor is already dissatisfied with them, how can he give them another chance to enter the center of power?They have long been used to being high above, so how can they be willing to fall down to the clouds!

"If everyone cheats the king and returns home to avoid responsibility, then what do I need the law in the summer? Lu Xiang, I respect that you used to be a minister of the government, and you are patient everywhere, even if you don't care about my face. , embarrassing the empress in public, preventing the empress from stepping down, I never thought of touching you, but the facts have proved that since I have not been in court for six years, your Lu family's appetite has been cultivated into a bottomless pit, and my position as empress is also You can covet it casually? Lu Mengrao is your most beloved granddaughter, and her temperament is also the epitome of you, if she hadn't backed her up, where would she and Lin have the courage to slander me and spread rumors to slander the queen?"

Pei Yuanzheng straightened his cuffs, and said every word casually, but there was no cover-up for the murderous intent in it, and he must be disturbed if he continued, Lu Xiang could no longer stay!

"The old minister is guilty, please forgive me!"

Now what he said was just sophistry, and Lu Shuren no longer sophisced, but kept lowering his stance, seeking a way out for the Lu family.

Glancing at the people around who had changed a bit, Shen Liang's eyes flashed, he quietly grabbed Pei Yuanlie who was still about to say something, and quietly hinted him to look at the people, Lu Shuren didn't seem to quibble anymore, but he was using such a To win the sympathy of the common people, after all, it is Lu Mengluo's mother and son who have committed the most heinous crimes today, and Lu Shuren once did meritorious service to the country, and now he only wants one to escape, if they still insist on killing them, the common people will probably cry out for them Yes, the imperial power is indeed supreme, but what is more terrifying than the imperial power is the mouths of the common people, and they have to be scruples about what others say.

Following his gaze lightly, Pei Yuanlie's eyes became even more murderous. Lu Shuren is still plotting against him, do you really think he is so easy to handle as the emperor?

"Seeing that you have worked hard without any credit these years, I will give you and the Lu family a chance."

Patting Shen Liang's hand to signal him not to worry, Pei Yuanlie raised his voice, "Yang Aiqing!"

"Chen is here!"

Yang Wanli stepped forward quickly, and Pei Yuanlie's voice mixed with internal strength sounded in a low voice: "Mr. Lu disrespected the emperor, deceived the emperor and committed crimes, and the criminals should be punished. In view of his past achievements, I specially gave him a chance. Immediately, Take Lu Xiang and his family members to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, block the prime minister's mansion, and temporarily dismiss all people related to the Lu family for investigation. Yang Aiqing, you will thoroughly investigate Lu Xiang and his family, first to see if they have colluded with Lin's mother and daughter to conspire Spread rumors to slander the queen, and then find out whether they violated the law. If they are all innocent, they are allowed to return home with their families. On the contrary, if they have colluded with the Lin mother and daughter, or violated the law According to the law, several crimes should be punished and killed according to the law!"

"Yes."

"emperor?!"

Yang Wanli received the imperial order in a calm voice, Lu Shuren's pupils shrank, and he raised his head to look at him in disbelief. All the Lu family members looked like they were about to faint. He didn't give the Lu family a chance, he clearly wanted to kill them all. Ah, as long as you are an official, no one dares to say that you are not afraid of investigation. The longer you are an official, the more you will not be able to stand the investigation. Naturally, Lu Shuren is no exception.

"Clap clap clap..."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Suddenly there was thunderous applause outside the prime minister's mansion, and the people who didn't know the truth felt that they could never find a more wise and generous monarch than their emperor. The people clapped their hands and shouted in unison. The only ones who won't come out are Lu Shuren and the Lu family. They seem to have foreseen their own death.

"Back to the palace!"

The calculation that he thought was clever was used by Pei Yuanlie. Lu Shuren was speechless, and Pei Yuanlie didn't bother to talk to him anymore. He took Shen Liang's hand and brought his queen back to Yuxuan. Before leaving, Shen Liang glanced at Lu Shuren indifferently, and ordered in a voice he could hear: "Yang Peng, you stay outside the palace to assist Lord Yang in the investigation."

"Subordinates obey!"

Yang Peng clasped his fists and bowed cautiously, but Lu Shuren sat down on the ground, not only from the Ministry of Punishment, but also from the Nether and Dark Guards, the heavens will kill his Lu family.

"My humble servant sends off His Majesty, and sends off the lord!"

"Farewell to Your Majesty, Respect to the Lord!"

Under the leadership of Yang Wanli, the cheering common people knelt down in unison, and the imperial drive was activated again. The emperor and empress returned to the palace surrounded by eunuchs and imperial guards. Those people who have been on good terms with Lu are not stupid. The emperor didn't even give Lu Xiang the chance to retire and return to his hometown.

The emperor wants to gather and suppress the ministers, if they insist on going their own way, I am afraid that they will all follow in the footsteps of Prime Minister Lu, right?This night, many people in the imperial city must have been unable to sleep.

"Well done, you deserve to be cool."

Murong's family, after learning about Lu Xiangfu's fate, Xiang Zhuo jumped up happily. They were worried at first, for fear that the rumors would spread wider and wider until it got out of hand. They didn't expect Liangliang to solve it so quickly. Lu Mengrao The mother and daughter deserved to be killed by a thousand knives.

"Calm down, don't act like a child, okay?"

With an annoyed glance at him, Wei Tan turned to look at Murong Yun: "Father, should you rest assured now? Liangliang and Youming Darkguard are not vegetarians. The emperor loves Liangliang so much, how could he let him been wronged all the time?"

"Yes, Xiaotan, remember to ask someone to tell Yu'er later, and ask him to order the people below to spread the truth as soon as possible, so that the common people know that Liang Liang was framed."

Murong Yun, who had been worried all day, burst into a smile, God knows how worried he was when he handed over the sign to enter the palace but didn't respond for a long time, lest Liangliang would be hurt by those rumors, until the dark guards came out to tell what Liangliang said, He was a little relieved, but the matter had not been resolved, and he was still worried. Fortunately, the truth has been revealed now.

"Dad, don't worry, father and husband know what to do."

Knowing that his father has always regarded Liangliang as his own son, Wei Tan is a little helpless, and a little dumbfounded.

"Well, Xiaoan, Xiao Zhuozi, shall we have dinner at Murong's house tonight?"

Nodding, Murong Yun looked at Murong An and Xiang Zhuo respectively. Now their husband and father-in-law have already taken office, and they have moved to a new mansion. If it weren't for Liangliang's incident today, they would not All come here.

"I can't see Daddy, my father and husband are busy with official duties, and we just moved into the Shangshu Mansion, there are still many things to do, since Liangliang is fine, I will take the child back first, and come to visit Daddy another day."

Murong An stood up as he spoke, Xiao Zhuozi greeted his two sons to get up and said, "Uncle Yun, I'm sorry to bother you today, I should go back, otherwise mother will be worried."

"Alright, come back another day when you have time, Xiaotan, you can see them off."

Considering that they were indeed busy, Murong Yun did not force them to stay. Murong An and Xiao Zhuozi took the child and gave him another salute before turning around together. Wei Tan also followed, and personally sent them to the door. They were relieved to get into the carriage and leave.

It was almost dark when Pei Yuanlie and his wife returned to the Emperor's Empress Palace. After having dinner with their family and children, the couple went to the dormitory where Pei Yuanfeng and his wife lived. You can't move casually after the stitches are stitched, and there are no other serious problems, but when Pei Yuanlie and his wife told them about Lu Xiangfu, He Rong was so excited that he wanted to rush directly to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice to drag Mrs. Lin out and whip him for a while. pause.

"Rongrong, calm down, don't forget you still have injuries on your hands."

Pei Yuanfeng hugged her helplessly. It seemed that after his wife had friends, he became less and less a husband as a husband, which made him feel jealous.

At this time, Pei Yuanfeng didn't know that the jealousy he wanted was still to come.

"Brother is right, calm down, Rongrong, they have entered the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and it will not be so easy to get out alive."

Shen Liang couldn't help being funny, and also comforted her, Rong Rong is actually a very righteous person, if you treat her well, he will pay you back very much, unfortunately, most people will be frightened by her rudeness, can't see Good to her.

"If I had known that I would be able to catch the mastermind so quickly, I would have removed the Gu tomorrow. I still feel very uncomfortable that I can't teach them a lesson myself."

After their persuasion, He Rong finally calmed down, but his face was still full of unwillingness.

"Then let's talk about it after your hands are healed. The investigation and evidence collection by the Ministry of Criminal Justice also takes time, and they can't escape from the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

"Ah."

Nodding, He Rong was already planning how to deal with them. On the other side, Pei Yuanfeng asked in a condensed voice: "You removed Lu Shuren, and you plan to let someone take his place? Although Yun Chan is strong, he is still too human." Young, when I helped him sit on the right chancellor, I attracted a lot of criticism, if I promote him to the left chancellor, I'm afraid I won't be able to convince everyone."

Looking at the civil and military affairs of the whole dynasty, there are many people who are qualified to be the left prime minister, but most of them have not really realized the fact that the third child has returned. Helping them to the position may create a second prime minister Lu. And Lan Yunchan and the people they brought back were not suitable at the moment, and he couldn't think of anyone else who could secure the position of left prime minister.

"No hurry, I have a very suitable candidate, but he is not in Xia Guo for the time being, the position of the left prime minister will be sealed up and reserved for him."

Pei Yuanlie was not worried at all, but after speaking, his face darkened: "Boss, how much do you know about the disaster relief money?"

The appointment and removal of the left prime minister is not important, and it doesn't matter if he is vacant for a year or so. Now he is more concerned about the issue of disaster relief money.

"What, is there a problem?"

Pei Yuanfeng was so perceptive, he immediately sensed something was wrong, he was the one who allocated the money, and because the third child and the others were coming back and needed Xia Guo's cooperation, he handed over all powers to Cui Zhenguo of the household department without further questioning, did he still Dare to embezzle disaster relief money privately?

Hearing their conversation, Shen Liang also turned his head to look over. He had heard a word from Fluolight before, but never found a chance to ask.
