Chapter 485: Timing

The emperor is not the only one who wants to settle old scores.

Before the emperor revealed this, Lu Qingrong and Jiang Xuan also moved their minds in unison.

In the inner room of the Yu Courtyard, Jiang Xuan and Lu Qingrong talked for a whole afternoon, and they continued until it was getting dark.

They were both concerned about what happened to each other overnight yesterday. After the exchange, there was endless emotion.

After a short silence, Lu Qingrong sat up straight again and spoke very seriously: "You say...... Is it time now? ”

There was only a vague question, but Jiang Xuan immediately understood.

"Are you referring to the death of your mother?" Jiang Xuan confirmed.

Lu Qingrong nodded: "Whether it was the Zhenbei General's Mansion back then, or us a few years ago, we were somewhat afraid of the huge power of the Wu family, so we were always limited to secret investigations, and the results were very small. Now that the new emperor has succeeded to the throne, although the empress dowager still has a noble status, the power of the Wu family has long been much worse than before, and there is no way to interfere with anything...... Can we let go of our hands and feet and investigate the case without any scruples? ”

Jiang Xuan sighed lightly and said, "Actually, I haven't given up on this matter in recent years. Just before I was imprisoned in the Criminal Department, I also sent someone to investigate the matter of Cheongdam Temple, but so far no news has come. ”

Cheongdamsa Temple?

Lu Qingrong was stunned for a moment before he reacted.

"You mean that the Qingtan Temple was attacked by someone the year before last and many people died? In my opinion, the Eight Achievements are the handiwork of those over there!"

Lu Qingrong said as he pouted in the direction of Qinyi Courtyard. He also said: "We all feel that this matter has nothing to do with Mrs. Wu, but because of the lack of evidence, there is no way to bring the wicked to justice......

Jiang Xuan heard this. A slight surprise.

Lu Qingrong is a cautious and cautious person, and he has never liked to accuse others without evidence.

This time, it seems that Mrs. Wu has already been convicted.

"How did you decide that it must be her?" Jiang Xuan asked.

Lu Qingrong frowned, as if he was caught in a memory.

"Originally, it was just speculation, one was due to the understanding of Mrs. Wu's character, and the other was that she was indeed the person who benefited the most from her mother's death."

Later, I heard my father's words before he died. I was even more convinced of this conjecture. If it weren't for my father's knowledge, how would I have persuaded you not to pursue this matter? In the past ten years, my father has had almost no contact with the outside world. Who else could make him so bothered to protect him? ”

Jiang Xuan listened carefully, but did not respond for a long time.

After pondering for a long time, in the end he did not approve or disagree.

Jiang Xuan continued the matter of Qingtan Temple: "Since what is most lacking now is evidence, then the case of Qingtan Temple's extermination. It's a great opportunity! We've been wrestling with things from more than a decade ago. It is always difficult to make a breakthrough. After all, it has only been two years since the incident in Qingtan Temple, and I think I can still find some traces, and it will not be as blurred as the old past. ”

Lu Qingrong also agreed with this statement and pinned great hopes on it.

At the same time, she was still thinking in her heart that if she still couldn't find evidence involving Mrs. Wu this time, it would be better to simply shift her focus to something else.

Regardless of the death of Mrs. Jiang back then, let's just talk about the last few years. Mrs. Wu has already done a lot of bad things!

Back then, she almost harmed the concubine and the abortion pill, which came directly from her hands. And the share that Empress Dowager Wu rewarded Tang Yue, tracing the root can also go back to her.

Even back then, the identity of Cheng Concubine had not yet been revealed, and the first emperor could punish her and An Lebo, and even the Queen Mother was slightly implicated.

At this time and that time, the concubine who has a reputation now is not even the most important one.

Tang Yue, the former princess of Jing, has become the queen of the dynasty!

Thinking of this, Lu Qingrong said bluntly: "If we really can't find evidence of what happened back then, we can make a fuss about other things." Mrs. Wu has done a lot of evil over the years, not to mention the abortion pills that pretend to be tonics, and the attempt to frame others with Tang Shan's death, but they are all closely related to today's saints...... I don't think the emperor may be able to swallow this breath! ”

Facing Jiang Xuan's surprised gaze, Lu Qingrong coughed lightly to relieve the embarrassment.

She thought that Jiang Xuan did not approve of this kind of behavior, and then explained: "I just thought that she acted so ruthlessly and deserved to be punished, and those things were originally done by her......"

Only then did Jiang Xuan know that she would be wrong.

"I agree with your idea!" Jiang Xuan hurriedly said, "Her evil deeds, it's best to figure them all out one by one, and tell the world that no one will be left behind, so that we can not waste our efforts and comfort my mother's soul in the sky!" ”

Jiang Xuan expressed his concerns: "It's just that the two things you mentioned must be a thorn in the emperor's heart, but whether the emperor is willing to pull it out is another matter." ”

"Whether it is a concubine, a queen, or even the emperor himself, once it is involved, this will become the privacy of the royal family, and the emperor may not be willing to show it in front of the people, and eventually become a palace secret discussed in the streets."

A word wakes up the dreamer.

Only then did Lu Qingrong realize that the idea he had just had just now was not only naïve, but even very dangerous.

It is important to let Mrs. Wu be severely punished, but if you really start with those two things, even if Mrs. Wu cannot escape the responsibility, I am afraid that it is inevitable to offend the emperor!

For the sake of the family feud, use the royal scandal to hit each other...... It's a bit of a communiqué of personal vendettas. No matter how generous the emperor is, it is estimated that he will have a lot of criticism for Jiang Xuan.

Lu Qingrong broke out in a cold sweat.

After a while, she finally cleared her thoughts: "Therefore, we still have to start with the matter of the Hou Mansion and find evidence related to Mrs. Wu's evil deeds, so that we can not only comfort my mother's spirit in the sky, but also pull out the thorn in the emperor's heart for ......the emperor."

Jiang Xuan bowed slightly.

Lu Qingrong's sensitivity saved him a lot of worries.

"Calculate the time, those who were sent to investigate the case of Qingtan Temple, there should be news back in a few days." Jiang Xuan said truthfully.

Seeing that Lu Qingrong still looked like she was deep in thought, Jiang Xuan didn't want her to worry too much.

Seeing that it was getting late, he first called Luzhu to prepare for dinner, and then persuaded: "Let Doctor Xu come over to show you tomorrow, I tossed for a day and a night yesterday, and I still have to recuperate!" ”

"In three days, it will be the day when you enter the palace and cry, you must not work hard these days, take a good time. On this hot day, crying is a chore, but I can't help but go, and when the time comes, the foreign wife and the courtiers are not together, and I can't accompany you! (To be continued.) )
