Chapter 304: Good and Evil
Gu Huanli also took two steps forward, and Lu Xuan wanted to catch up, but he was worried about Rong Li, so he could only stop in place.
But after such a long time, Rong Li could already see Lu Xuan's mind clearly, and he immediately spoke to her: "I'll go back to the house first to report to my aunt that I'm safe, and you should go back early." β
Seeing Rong Li leaving, Lu Xuan finally chased in the direction of Gu Huanli: "Your Highness." β
Hearing Lu Xuan's voice, Gu Huanli stopped and looked at her as if nothing had happened.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for this matter, Your Highness has bothered." Lu Xuan thought about it for a long time, but he only said these two words.
Since the acquaintance, Lu Xuan has been taken care of by Gu Huanli everywhere, and I don't know how many times I have said thank you, but it seems to be a little too light to say it at this time.
Gu Huanli didn't have any special reaction when he heard this, he was only silent for a moment before he said, "This king has long been used to it."
Lu Xuan, who said this, was confused: Did His Highness dislike me and cause him too much trouble?
Lu Xuan was thinking about it, but he heard Gu Huanli's words coming from the front: "Let's go, Ah Xu is waiting to see you in this palace." β
When Lu Xuan heard this, he hurriedly followed Gu Huanli's footsteps.
Everything is fine here, but on the other hand, the prince who failed to do his job and was almost punished for treason is not so good.
Back in the East Palace, Li Ce still had little understanding of what was happening in the court today, so he was summoned to the main hall by the prince.
"See His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister just saw that the Imperial Forest Army came to take away Lu Niangniang, dare to ask ...... this is" Li Ce asked cautiously, but the prince was furious and glared at him viciously: "It's not all thanks to you, Lord Li." β
Li Ce was confused: "I don't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said about this?" β
The prince snorted coldly: "The good plan proposed by Lord Li, the ministers who rebelled in the palace were all discovered by the imperial uncle, and today hundreds of officials in the court are held accountable, and the palace is almost regarded as a chaotic minister and thief." β
"Is that so?" Li Ce was surprised: "Then His Highness is ...... now" Seeing that the crown prince is not back in a good manner?
Only then did the prince respond with an unfortunate face: "The palace dragged Lu Qingmeng out to confess, and the Imperial Forest Army who came just now wanted to take her to the execution ground for beheading, but fortunately, the palace let her contact those ministers at the beginning." β
"What, ask the chop?" Li Ce suddenly felt a chill in his back when he heard this, the crown prince really deserved to be the one who was preparing to inherit the throne, and the ruthlessness of his mind was simply unpredictable.
I think that when Lu Qingmeng recommended himself to become the prince's concubine, he was also very fond of her, why is it said that he has been abandoned now? This may be the ruthlessness of the emperor's family.
Li Ce was thinking like this, but suddenly there was a sigh from the prince beside him: "You can go too." β
"Let's go?" Li Ce was puzzled: "What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean by this?" β
I saw the prince looking at him with disgust: "With a military advisor like you who can make this palace lose his life at any time, this palace doesn't dare to keep you by his side anymore, this palace will let you go today, you can find another way." β
Looking for another way? has successively taken refuge in the two princes of King Chang and the crown prince, where is there any other way out for Li Ce?
As soon as he heard this, Li Ce hurriedly knelt down and pleaded with the prince: "The lower official is loyal to His Royal Highness the Prince, and I ask His Royal Highness not to abandon the lower official no matter what!" β
Having said that, where is there a shortage of loyal people around the prince? For a person like Li Ce who had betrayed King Chang, the prince kept him because he had Lu Xuan's handle in his hands.
But now that Lu Xuan's daughter has been made public, and with the protection of the four major clans, this matter can no longer be a bargaining chip that can threaten her, so Li Ce naturally has no use value for the prince.
Seeing Li Ce's entanglement, the already upset prince didn't bother to talk to him, so he immediately waved his hand to the guards beside him, and no matter what Li Ce said, he had already been thrown out of the prince's mansion and once again became a lost dog.
At that time, the murderous king's mansion.
"Why hasn't Ah Xuan come back yet, is Uncle Huang sure?" Shen Xixu was anxious and paced back and forth in the courtyard.
Luo Mingrang hurriedly comforted her: "Ah Xu, don't go around, don't you know Gu Huanli's ability?" With him, what else can't be done? β
That being said, but after all, this is a crime of bullying the king, and Shen Xixu, as a member of the royal family, knows the fate of this crime best, and she really can't help but worry about Lu Xuan.
It wasn't until there was movement at the door that Shen Xixu rushed out without saying a word, but fortunately, it was an intact Lu Xuan who appeared in front of her, so she breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly rushed towards Lu Xuan.
Before Lu Xuan came back to his senses, the whole person was held in Shen Xixu's arms. Twenty fifty thousand
"Ah Xuan, you are back, I am still worried that Your Majesty will not let you go." Shen Xixu almost cried when he said it, which made Lu Xuan cry and laugh.
"Silly girl, aren't I coming back, let me go, otherwise I will be strangled to death by you if I finally escape from the prison of the Criminal Department." Lu Xuan spoke to Shen Xixu half-comfortingly and half-fighting.
She was reluctant to let go of Lu Xuan, and then raised her eyes to look at her: "You must have suffered these days, you must be worried all day long." β
Lu Xuan shook his head, with a bright smile on his face: "The criminal department is all His Highness's people, His Highness has taken care of it, I didn't suffer, as for worrying......"
Speaking of this, Lu Xuan unconsciously set her eyes on Gu Huanli, in fact, thinking about it carefully, she didn't have many moments of worry these days, probably thinking that everything would not be too bad with him.
Hearing Lu Xuan say this, Shen Xixu relieved his heart, but he was still puzzled: "But Ah Xuan, you committed the crime of bullying the king, and Your Majesty let you go like this?" β
Speaking of this, Lu Xuan couldn't help but want to tease Shen Xixu, she immediately shook her head and sighed: "No, Your Majesty will naturally not let me go easily." β
Shen Xixu and Luo Mingrang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they said this, Gu Huanli was even more dazed, and then turned his head to look at her, and the three of them looked forward to it, waiting to see what Lu Xuan would say.
I saw her sighing with an aggrieved face: "I thought that I would be able to be idle after everything was over, but I didn't think that I was given back by His Majesty to be an official." β
Hearing this, Luo Mingrang and Shen Xixu were taken aback.
"Lord Lu is saying that His Majesty not only did not cure your crimes, but also allowed you to enter the court as an official and as a woman?" Luo Mingrang was stunned, he had never heard of such an example.
Lu Xuan immediately nodded: "Yes, the official has been reinstated, and the governor of the fourth grade." β
Shen Xixu immediately cried with joy, and then smashed his fist into Lu Xuan's chest: "Okay, you Ah Xuan, now you have learned to make fun of me, see how I clean you up." β
It was rare to see Lu Xuan so relaxed, and Gu Huanli couldn't help but show a doting smile on his face.
Lu Xuan was happily playing with Shen Xixu, but Gu Huanli's sighing voice suddenly came from the side: "This king is still Lord Lu, he really wants to enter the court as an official and benefit the people, I knew that I didn't have to take such pains to help you ask for this official position." β
Lu Xuan was stunned when he heard this, but Gu Huanli spoke again: "It's better like this, how about this king ask His Majesty for his order again tomorrow morning and remove your official position?" β
These words can be said to have scared Lu Xuan enough, and she immediately walked up to Gu Huanli and begged for mercy: "No, no, No, Your Highness, I just laughed at that, I really want to enter the court as an official, and please don't take my words seriously." β
"Really? Then you will prove to this king by your deeds. Gu Huanli was still the arrogant Highness at the beginning, seeing his familiar expression, Lu Xuan couldn't help but have a delusion, as if everything had returned to square one.
Everything that once belonged to Lu Xuan still belonged to her, and what she had never been lucky enough to meet appeared in her life unexpectedly, just like God made up for her crippled previous life.
After thinking about it for a while, Lu Xuan asked Gu Huanli about the doubts he had always had in his heart: "Why did Your Highness hand over the military aircraft treasure map to Your Majesty?" In case Your Majesty finds those weapons and uses them to deal with Your Highness......"
Lu Xuan knew that a courtier should not say such a thing, but compared to Gu Huanli's safety, it was nothing to say one or two words of these rebellious words occasionally.
Gu Huanli smiled indifferently when he heard this: "That treasure map is just a peace of mind for Your Majesty, and this king is also a gamble, if you can please Long Yan Dayue, maybe Your Majesty will be able to let you go." β
"Your Highness is betting on something so important?" Lu Xuan couldn't believe it, when did his life become so valuable?
Gu Huanli then explained: "Maybe His Majesty the Ancestor thought that it was a treasure left to future generations, but after so many years, those weapons are nothing to this king. β
Just as Lu Xuan had thought before, the weapons developed by Gu Huanli were already enough to compete with the ancestral emperor's legacy.
It was only now that she heard Gu Huanli say it herself, she was able to rest assured: "What about the four major clans?" They have no connection with me, so how could they be willing to come forward and save me with such a precious thing? β
"They, this king was kind to them when he was fighting in all directions, but it was just a meal of friendship that gave them a chance to repay the favor." Gu Huanli said with a calm and breezy look.
But who knows what kind of great kindness he has to the four major clans, and he would let the family take out such a valuable treasure, this treasure is enough to stay and exchange Gu Huanli's life for a day, why should it be used on Lu Xuan today?
Thinking of this, Lu Xuan was not only moved or moved in his heart, but he didn't know what else to say for a while.
At the moment, there was only one doubt left in her heartβ"How did His Highness know about the prince's formation of a party for personal gain?" β
Lu Xuan privately thought that his own affairs in the past few days should be enough for Gu Huanli to be busy, but he didn't expect that he still had the heart to worry about the prince.
I saw the corners of Gu Huanli's mouth hooked, and his eyes fell on Luo Mingrang.
