Chapter 283: Selfishness

Gu Huanli coaxed Lu Xuan for such a reason, and she reluctantly believed it.

"Since this is the case, the lower officials must do their best." Lu Xuan swore an oath to Gu Huanli, and then turned around and left.

Only then did Lin Wei dare to step forward and ask: "Your Highness really suspects that there is a connection between these two cases?" ”

You must know the ability of the Murder King's Mansion to investigate the case, if there was really such an obvious connection, Lin Wei would have found out a long time ago, why did he cover up in front of Lu Xuan for most of the day like Fang Cai?

Gu Huanli was still determined when he talked to Lu Xuan, but when he was asked by Lin Wei at this time, he sighed: "If you have any contact, let her check it first, otherwise she won't feel at ease." ”

Lin Wei understood His Highness's painstaking efforts, so naturally he wouldn't say anything, and then nodded: "Since it is His Highness's decision, his subordinates will definitely try their best to help Lord Lu find out the truth of the case as soon as possible." ”

On the other hand, with Gu Huanli's permission, Lu Xuan let go of his hand without saying a word to thoroughly investigate his father's case.

At the beginning, Lu Yan was an official in the cabinet, and when he was slandered for favoritism, he was inspecting the official affairs of the household department.

At present, Lu Xuan's status is low, and it must be difficult to go to the cabinet to investigate the case, and if he is not careful, he will be startled, after all, with Lu Yan's identity back then, he must also be a figure with a high status in the DPRK and China.

So at the moment, the most convenient thing for Lu Xuan to start with is obviously the household department where she once served, and the household department was the cause of the incident back then, and they must know best whether Lu Yan was really favoritism.

Thinking about it, when he was in the household department, he had always taken good care of himself, and he had been an official in the household department for many years, and he might have heard of the previous case.

Therefore, Lu Xuan didn't think about it, and went directly to the mansion of Hubu Shangshu.

Knowing that the Criminal Department had handed over the matter of the treasure map to Lu Xuan for investigation, the Household Department Shangshu had been worried, and what he had said to Chen Weizhi before, everything came to mind again, and he was even more restless.

At this time, the subordinates in the mansion came back to report that Lu Xuan had come to the door, and the head of the household was even more shocked: Could it be that she knew about the treasure map back then and came to settle accounts with me?

Hubu Shangshu was panicked in his heart, and he had been hesitating not knowing whether to let Lu Xuan in, he had been an official for decades, and the only thing he had to do was to Lu Yan, and he couldn't imagine that after so many years, he still couldn't hide.

After thinking about it, people always have to pay the price for the mistakes they have made, and they have already burdened Lu Yan and made him bear the grievances of most of his life, at this time, he can't let his spirit in the sky never rest in peace.

Thinking of this, Hubu Shangshu sighed at this time, and then spoke to his subordinates: "Please come in, Lord Lu." ”

After a while, Lu Xuan entered the door and respectfully saluted the head of the household department, and then asked the first sentence that made him tremble-"My lord has served in the household department for many years, I don't know if you have ever experienced the cabinet inspection of official affairs back then?" ”

Before Lu Yan's incident, it was indeed the cabinet that was responsible for reviewing the official affairs of the six ministries, but since he made that case, the task of reviewing it was handed over to the West Factory and the East Factory.

It was also from that time that the power of the West and East factories was further expanded.

When Lu Xuan asked this, Hubu Shangshu instantly broke out in a cold sweat, and then asked her tentatively: "What did Lord Lu do when he inquired about things so long ago?" ”

Lu Xuan didn't doubt it, and then responded truthfully: "It's not a secret, it was the father who was responsible for reviewing the official affairs of the household department back then, but after that time, the father was wrongfully beheaded. ”

Originally, Hubu Shangshu was uneasy because of the treasure map, but he didn't expect that Lu Xuan had already found out about Lu Yan's case back then, which made him even more frightened.

However, I think that this incident was indeed my own mistake back then, and I really shouldn't let Lu Yan bear it on my behalf, and the big mistake cast by the household department Shangshu is irreparable, but I can finally give Lu Yan's descendants a peace of mind.

Thinking of this, the head of the household department Shangshu made up his mind to tell Lu Xuan the truth of the matter back then, but before he could speak, the subordinate rushed in again: "My lord, the six departments are urgently summoned." ”

The words that came to the mouth of the Hubu Shangshu were interrupted by this urgent call, and he hurriedly motioned to Lu Xuan to wait, and then went to read the urgent call.

When the edict was opened, the head of the household was suddenly shocked, this edict was like rain in time, and it was clearly written that the treasure map should be thoroughly investigated, and anyone who had anything to do with that matter would be regarded as a chaotic party and beheaded by the whole family.

Although Hubu Shangshu was not directly involved in anything related to the treasure map back then, if it is thoroughly investigated, it will inevitably be said that he has lost ten thousand taels of gold in the treasury and found Lu Yan to confess.

And Lu Yan, as the person who had the closest relationship with the treasure map back then, if he stood on the opposite side of him, he would inevitably be regarded as someone who agreed to covet the treasure map.

Seeing this edict, the courage of Tobe Shangshu to confess was immediately extinguished. Funny

Lu Xuan stood aside and watched Hubu Shangshu's hand holding the edict tremble, and she immediately stepped forward to ask him, "My lord, are you okay?" ”

Hearing Lu Xuan's voice, Hubu Shangshu, who was already weak-hearted, trembled suddenly, and hurriedly put away the edict and turned back to her:

"Lord Lu also saw it, there is an urgent call from the six departments, and the official has official business to deal with, I'm afraid I can't accompany him, as for what Lord Lu said, the official really doesn't know very well, Lord Lu should go and ask others."

After that, no matter how Lu Xuan reacted, the head of the household department Shangshu fled from her.

Lu Xuan has always believed in the character of Hubu Shangshu, so she is also convinced of what he said, since he said that there is an urgent matter, she did not dwell on it any more, so she had to leave without getting anything.

At the moment, I can't hear any news from the household department, so the most important clue is broken, so what next? Do you really want to risk death to go to the cabinet?

Lu Xuan was melancholy, but when she was walking with her head down, she bumped into someone, she subconsciously hurriedly leaned over and apologized to the person in front of her: "You are reckless, please also ask Your Excellency Haihan." ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard the man's familiar voice - "Are you going to see Lord Shangshu?" How can you not give up? ”

This voice had existed in Lu Xuan's ears for two lifetimes, and she recognized who it was as soon as she heard it, so she straightened up and raised her eyes to look at the other party: "Lord Chen, why are you here?" ”

Chen Weizhi responded casually: "I came to discuss something with Lord Shangshu. Then he asked Lu Xuan: "It's you, aren't you serving in the Criminal Department now?" How did you find that the house of Lord Tobe Shangshu came up? ”

Lu Xuan immediately sighed: "It's just that there are some old things I want to ask Lord Shangshu about." ”

When Chen Weiyi heard this, he guessed what Lu Xuan said about the old things, but he didn't know how Hubu Shangshu responded to her, and after thinking for a moment, he immediately asked her tentatively: "Then, what do you hear?" ”

Lu Xuan shook his head with a disappointed face: "It's that what I thought was too simple, Lord Shangshu doesn't know anything, oh yes, he just received six urgent calls, maybe he is busy at this time, Lord Chen is afraid that he won't be able to see Lord Shangshu." ”

Hearing such an answer, Chen Wei couldn't help but feel a little lonely in his heart, it seemed that Hubu Shangshu still failed to tell Lu Xuan about those old things in the end.

Although Chen Weizhi is an insider, since the parties have no intention of opening up, he is even less qualified to say anything for others as an outsider.

Only then did he pretend to be casual and nodded at Lu Xuan: "In that case, I won't come to bother Lord Shangshu, let's come back another day, so where does Lord Lu plan to go next?" ”

"Go back to the Criminal Department, the file on the case still needs to be read a few more times, maybe there will be other clues." Lu Xuan responded, and Chen Weizhi nodded: "It's just the same way, so let's go together." ”

The two walked together, but there was an obvious anger near the halfway point, Lu Xuan felt that his body trembled unconsciously, as if someone was staring at him.

With such a feeling, as soon as she raised her eyes, she met the eyes full of fierce light, followed by a burst of cold words - "This king is still a lot of attention to the investigation of the case as Lord Lu, but I didn't expect to come out to talk with others." ”

In this sentence, the air around him seems to be filled with a sour smell.

Seeing this, Lu Xuan hurriedly stepped forward and explained: "I met Master Chen by chance at the gate of Shangshu Mansion. In fact, she didn't know why she had to explain this to Gu Huanli.

Originally, when he saw Gu Huanli, Chen Wei's heart was already unhappy enough, and when he saw Lu Xuan explaining to the other party so nervously, he became even more angry.

Chen Weizhi immediately walked up to Lu Xuan, stood side by side with her in front of Gu Huanli, and then spoke to him: "When did she have to tell His Highness who she met and chatted with?" ”

Isn't this a provocation to Gu Huanli's sovereignty? He has led his troops to fight for so many years, but this is what he can't stand the most.

Being provoked by Chen Weizhi like this, Gu Huanli stepped forward and pulled Lu Xuan to his side without saying a word, and then glared at him angrily: "If Lord Chen doesn't want to be framed as a party for personal gain, it's best to stay away from this king's people." ”

Lu Xuan heard it right, Gu Huanli once again said the words "the king's person", and the strange thing was that when it came to the relationship between the party and the private business, she couldn't refute his statement at all.

When Chen Weizhi heard this, his heart was like turning over a pot of fire, and his usual style of fighting the heavens and the earth in the court was about to be stimulated immediately, but Gu Huanli accidentally poured a basin of cold water-

"Since you don't disdain to be in the company of others, don't wander around any faction, otherwise beware of ruining your Lord Chen's upright reputation." After that, Gu Huanli directly pulled Lu Xuan away.

Chen Weizhi froze in place, speechless for a while.
