I'm happy after being scumbag

As Wang An's words fell, Lu Mingyu's heart suddenly twitched.

His eyes were heavy, and he fell on Wang An.

In all fairness, no matter in the past or now, Lu Mingyu has always paid little attention to his younger brother.

When the late emperor was around, the third prince had his back to the Yan family, and the grandfather of the second prince was also a great Confucianist with countless disciples.Only the fourth prince, his mother and concubine came from mediocre backgrounds, and his father and brother were gradually promoted after the birth of the fourth prince and his mother and concubine became concubines. Even so, they did not get much official positions.

Behind the second and third princes, the fight was in full swing. Although the fourth prince was not completely transparent like Lu Mingyu, he still didn't have much brilliance.Many things had to be reviewed after the fact, so that he could be vaguely seen from them, and knew that maybe he was also contributing to the flames.

Now, Uncharacteristically, Wang An suddenly stood up and said that it was such an earth-shattering event.

Lu Mingyu didn't get angry directly, and asked Yan's family for questioning, but asked: "Do you know what kind of crime it is to slander a hero?"

King An was firm and said, "Your Majesty—if it wasn't for such an important matter, how could my younger brother enter the palace directly!"

Lu Mingyu's expression didn't move, but he thought in his heart: This is true.

If we say that before he fell from the horse, the fourth child often played the role of "singer".After falling off the horse, the fourth child fell silent.After all, no matter how much a crippled prince jumps around, he can only make wedding dresses for others.

Up to now, King An may still have ambitions, but his ambitions are mostly pinned on the eldest son in the mansion who can't walk well.Under such circumstances, it would be of no benefit for him to frame the King of Jin and the Yan family.Even if King Jin is gone, there are still five princes who are ranked before the "Prince".

But Lu Mingyu still didn't speak directly to Wang An.He simply said: "I understand. This matter needs to be discussed in a long-term way, and it must not be exposed again. That old servant you mentioned..."

King An said: "The old servant is actually an elder of my uncle's family."

Lu Mingyu twitched the corners of his lips, and said with a smirk, "It's true that he escaped and reported the letter from the bottom of his heart. Then, after a while, I'll ask Li Ruyi to visit your house and give him something to reward him."

Wang An was slightly taken aback, and said, "This is really frustrating."

Lu Mingyu looked at him, and saw that other than being surprised, Wang An didn't have much nervous expression on his face.

It can be seen that Li Ruyi is not afraid of questioning the old servant.

This also seems to explain something.Lu Mingyu calmed down a bit, and said lightly, "Go down."

King An left, and Li Ruyi, who was always listening to the conversation between the brother and the monarch and minister, felt a little nervous.

Soon, Lu Mingyu called him and said, "You go out of the palace later."

Li Ruyi made a "squeaky" sound, Lu Mingyu thought about it, and said, "Go to Yan's house."

Li Ruyi swallowed, thinking, so it seems that His Majesty still believed King An's words.

I thought again, how could this be the case?Isn't General Yan's family the most loyal?Besides, there is also the entanglement between His Majesty and the Major General.

Lu Mingyu added: "Take Zhang Yuanjue together. Major General Yan has been ill for [-] days, right? It can be seen that the disease is really serious. I am really worried, and I don't know how the Yan family treats Major General."

Li Ruyi didn't think about it any more, and hurriedly let out another "squeak".

The Son of Heaven was quiet for a while before continuing: "If you really can't see anyone... No, you tell Yan Zhengyuan that you must see someone today. Even if he has smallpox, he has to say a word through the door and window."

Li Ruyi's heart trembled, and she heard the emperor's decisive attitude.

"If the Yan family is really unwilling." Lu Mingyu sighed slowly, "Come back and tell me."

Li Ruyi: "Hey."

"Where is King An," the emperor said again, "ask carefully, where did he meet people, who did he see, and what scene did he see. Besides, how did King An think of buying foreign slaves? What kind of channels did he go to?" , What kind of person did you buy, and ask them together. That’s all right, that’s all.”

Hearing this, Li Ruyi first went through the emperor's order in her heart, and then repeated it to Lu Mingyu.Lu Mingyu nodded, and then Li Ruyi left.

According to what the emperor said, he went to Yan Mansion first when he left the palace.Furthermore, it is Prince An's Mansion.

Once back and forth, most of the day passed.It was already afternoon when they stepped into Funing Hall again.

It was almost dusk, but the sky was still bright.Recently, the court judge Zhang told the emperor several times that the house should be ventilated, and that it would inevitably lead to depression after a long period of oppression, so the emperor put a small case by the window and corrected the memorial on it.

When Lu Mingyu heard Li Ruyi's return, he didn't look up at first.It was after approving the paperwork in hand that he raised his head and said, "Did you see Yan Yunge?"

Li Ruyi's face was a little stiff.

When Lu Mingyu saw this, what else did he not understand?

He laughed lowly, showing no emotion at all.Li Ruyi was terrified when he heard it, and was considering his words when the emperor spoke again and asked, "Okay, let's talk about it one by one."

Li Ruyi took a deep breath and spoke.

He said: "After the servant and Zhang Yuanpan met at the gate of the palace, they went to the Yan Mansion together. General Yan greeted the servant, and when the servant told about His Majesty asking Zhang Yuanpan to see it, his face seemed unhappy.

"Later, Zhang Yuan judge asked about the major general's symptoms, but General Yan didn't answer too much. The servant suddenly asked, 'Such secretiveness, could it be smallpox'. This sentence shocked General Yan, and the servant looked at him. I'm really thinking about whether the major general is 'smallpox'.

"After coming out of Yan's mansion, Zhang Yuan told the servant that the major general said he had been ill for more than [-] days, but there was no smell of medicine in the mansion. The few symptoms that General Yan said vaguely were also very unclear. According to Zhang Yuan's judgment, the Major General is probably not sick."

This was the answer that Lu Mingyu was very unwilling to hear.But Li Ruyi told him sentence by sentence, and it was hard for him to ignore it.

Afterwards, Li Ruyi said again: "Over there at Prince An's Mansion, the servant did see an old servant. The old servant's speech was not very clear, but he could answer clearly whatever the servant asked him. The servant played tricks Er, I intentionally mispronounced the color of the clothes on Major General Yan’s body once, saying that’s what he said just now. After thinking for a long time, he said that it was probably a slip of the tongue just now. It's true."

Lu Mingyu gave a soft "um".

Li Ruyi observed his words and expressions, and could see that the emperor was already distracted.

He hesitated before shutting up and continuing, but after a while, the emperor came back to his senses and asked him, "That's all?"

Li Ruyi thought to herself: You really didn't listen.I haven't said anything about how the old servant went north and how he bought foreign slaves.

But Lu Mingyu really didn't have the heart to worry about these anymore.There is only one thought in his mind, that is: Yan Yunge is indeed not in Yan's house.

Not only that, he went to a place that the Yan family absolutely didn't want to tell himself.According to Li Ruyi, Yan Zhengyuan would rather admit to Yan Yunge smallpox than clarify the truth.

——However, does this mean that the Yan family is going against it?

Lu Mingyu was extremely upset.

His thoughts were divided in two.While talking, he had already wronged the Yan family once, and almost killed Yan Yunge with poison.The same mistake must never be made a second time.In the final analysis, "Yan Yunge did not show up" is not the same as "he went to see the army from Yan's family who came to Chang'an".According to the old four's methods in the past, it is not certain that he knew what happened to Yan Yunge, so he deliberately came to tell him.

If there is any misunderstanding in it, but he directly strikes, no matter how loyal the Yan family is, I am afraid they will feel disappointed.

On the other side, Zhang Yuanjue went directly to the Yan Mansion. Doesn't this explain his attitude? ——He wanted to know about Yan Yunge's situation, and he wanted to see Yan Yunge himself!The Yan Mansion only shirks this, without any explanation, how can this be justifiable?It is probably true that there is something shady about it. Of course, whether it is "rebellion" or not is another matter.

Can't figure it out, can't figure it out.

Lu Mingyu's mind was in a mess.That night, I didn't even read the booklet.After supper, he remained silent.Li Ruyi changed the tea for him a few times, and occasionally saw the emperor's brows raised, falling into long thoughts.

Li Ruyi sighed silently, and backed away again.Lu Mingyu was full of thoughts, and occasionally stroked the wood carving of a magpie.He couldn't deduce an answer from what the Yan family did, so he simply changed his mind and asked himself: What do you think?

He is willing to believe in Yan Yunge and the Yan family.He can't make another mistake.

Then give them another chance.Lu Mingyu thought.

Let Li Ruyi go again tomorrow.Make your attitude clearer and clearer, and you can even reveal a little bit that "someone saw Yan Yunge in Jindi".To put it bluntly, Chang'an is now under the guard of the imperial guards, Yan Yunge is outside, but Yan Zhengyuan and the rest of the Yan Party cannot escape.

Yes, when Li Ruyi goes, she has to bring the guards with her.Directly let people surround the Yan Mansion, Guo Mansion, etc., and prepare for the worst.

Having made a decision, Lu Mingyu felt much more relaxed.

It was very late, and the emperor had no interest in continuing to critique papers.He was about to go to bed, so he picked up a book at random before going to bed, it was "The Record of Stranger People" that Zhang Yuanpan presented earlier.

He has not read this book for a long time.It took me a long time now to remember where I saw it before.

At hand is a chapter called "Bai Zi".Lu Mingyu first glanced over in a hurry, and soon stopped his gaze, a little dignified.

With white hair and skin, it is difficult to see things in both eyes.

The first half of the sentence reminded him of King Ning.The second half of the sentence made Lu Mingyu feel suspicious.

Except for the skin color and hair color which are different from ordinary people, King Ning is clearly an ordinary child.Among other things, those eyes were dark, although Yan Yunge didn't let him get too close when he met King Ning that day in the Palace of Funing, Lu Mingyu still had a fresh memory of it.

--Um?

Lu Mingyu raised his brows, and his eyes stayed on the pages of the book.

"The eyebrows are flowing, the whole body is white, and there is no black one.

"Both eyes are dim, and I can't see much.

"His pupils are red, even if she is close to a shemale..."

King Ning's eyes were black.

Yan Yunge didn't let him get close to King Ning.

When King Ning entered Chang'an, he completely dispelled his doubts about the Yan family, and let him know that the Yan family was a loyal minister. It was really "unspeakable" that Yan Yunge didn't tell him about King Ning before.

King Ning... Yan Family...

Lu Mingyu's hands holding the pages of the book trembled slightly.

If he had only read this page of the book, or if he had only heard Wang An's words, he would not be shaken at this moment.

But when everything was added together, even some details that Lu Mingyu had deliberately ignored in the past also surfaced.He thought of Guo Xin's unhesitating "dog emperor" when facing him, and thought of the private salt case that could not be found out for a long time.Chen Xiu expressly hinted several times that the people he sent repeatedly hit a wall in Zhecheng, and Zheng Gong's old department did not cooperate at all!

Lu Mingyu pressed the tip of his tongue against his palate, and after a while, his eyes finally turned cold.

Li Ruyi heard the emperor's order again.The emperor's voice was slightly hoarse, and he said, "Remember, King Xuanning will enter the palace tomorrow."

Li Ruyi couldn't figure it out, she didn't understand why the emperor thought of King Ning again.However, this is still not something he can talk about.

After the sound of "嗻", the Palace of Funing was quiet again, only the occasional crackling of candles.
