Chapter 104: Questioning the Emperor

"He cooks for himself?" Chang Yi thought it was strange, he had never heard of a man cooking, all the women around him came into the kitchen, why did this Liu Congwen like to cook by himself?

"It can't be that he hasn't married a wife for so long, so he wants to take care of himself for the rest of his life, right?"

"What are you talking about? My grandmother said that a man must learn to help share the household chores in order for the family to be happy. Lu Qingyi didn't think it was strange, he had heard about it earlier, and he still had his grandfather by his side, so he didn't think it was strange.

"What have you two been muttering? Weird, isn't it? Liu Congwen, who had been busy with his work, suddenly looked back at Lu Qingyi and Chang Yi.

"I've heard that Mr. Liu likes to cook and study dishes by himself, and when I see it today, I can't help but feel that I am fortunate to have three lives." Lu Qingyi's voice was gentle, and Chong Liu Congwen smiled politely.

Liu Congwen disagreed, "I think for your safety, you need to learn how to cook, your family's cooking skills are a bit wonderful." ”

"You two sit down for a while, and the food will be fine in a while." Liu Congwen said and continued to be busy.

After a while, Liu Congwen brought the dish up, "You can taste it first." ”

Liu Congwen's cooking skills are excellent, perhaps because he likes these, so he spends a lot of time, and he is really as Shen Xi said, life is very boring and dull.

So today he called him and Chang Yi to come, for what was the matter, the meal was almost finished, and he didn't see him say a word.

"Mr. Liu called us here today, shouldn't he have asked us to taste your cooking!" Lu Qingyi still opened his mouth first, since he called them here, he must have something to say.

"Of course not." Liu Congwen took a slight sip of tea, "I know that you have been investigating the case from twenty years ago, but you have not made any progress after investigating it for so long." Liu Congwen's voice was very light and gentle, but what he said was the truth.

"Mr. Liu, these things really can't be hidden from your eyes." Lu Qingyi smiled slightly, it was not difficult for Liu Congwen to know these things.

"At the beginning, Concubine Lan was deeply favored by the emperor, but after her death, the emperor even had a hasty funeral, and I don't know about this matter, have you ever thought about why?" Liu Congwen stared at Lu Qingyi and Chang Yi, his voice cold.

This incident was a lot of trouble at the beginning, after all, it was a favored concubine who suddenly fell into a well and died, so the palace at that time was also panicked, and in the end, it was forced down by the emperor to live in peace for 20 years.

"What you can think of, what the emperor can think of, what you can't think of, the emperor has also thought of it, not everything is as simple as you imagined." Liu Congwen continued.

"But do you really want my mother to die unjustly?" When Chang Yi heard this, he couldn't listen to it anymore, he had been tracking it for so long, so he didn't listen to this sentence.

"Since Mr. Liu knows all this, why did he call us here?" Lu Qingyi was calmer than Chang Yi, he didn't believe that Liu Congwen just wanted to talk to them about this.

Liu Congwen smiled, "That power is so powerful that even the emperor doesn't dare to touch her at will, can any of you two be stronger than the emperor?" ”

"Is there anything Mr. Liu can do?" Lu Qingyi frowned slightly, they all knew that the queen was powerful, otherwise she would not have been in the palace for many years, but what they didn't expect was that it would be so big that even the emperor wouldn't dare to touch her.

Besides, listening to Liu Congwen say this, the emperor knew that the murderer was the queen. 000 Literature

"There is naturally a way, but it depends on how the third prince chooses?" Liu Congwen looked at Chang Yi after speaking, "The queen is powerful now, and the emperor has also beaten the He family, but the effect is not ideal, and the only way now is that you, the third prince, will deal with this matter after you sit on the dragon chair." ”

The battle for the throne between the crown prince and the second prince is in full swing, no matter who sits on the throne of the two of them, it will be unfavorable to Chang Yi. At present, the best way is for Chang Yi to ascend the throne by himself, and then fight the forces of the He family and avenge Concubine Lan.

"Do I have to do this?" Chang Yi frowned slightly, he never thought that he would one day compete for this throne, the position that everyone in the world wanted to sit in, but he regarded it as a mustard.

"You have to." Liu Congwen's tone was firm, "Except for you, anyone who sits in this position will not be able to avenge your mother's revenge." ”

Because no matter which prince ascends to the throne, he may be controlled by the queen, only Chang Yi will not.

"You make me think about it." Chang Yi still hesitated after all, he just didn't believe it, there was no other way, why couldn't his father avenge him? Do you have to let him participate in this battle for succession?

"When the third prince has figured it out, they can come to me." Liu Congwen did not persecute Chang Yi, all of this was just between his thoughts.

After leaving Liufu, Chang Yi's whole body was wilted, "You accompany me into the palace tomorrow." After so many years, he wanted to know, what was his father for?

Lu Qingyi understands Chang Yi's current mood very well, but the emperor must have the emperor's reason, he is the son of heaven, and any decision he makes cannot be decided easily.

Lu Qingyi also knew that the emperor was secretly suppressing the He family, but the strength of the He family could not collapse overnight.

Early the next morning, Chang Yi rarely went to the early court, and after the early court, he and Lu Qingyi went straight to the imperial study to find the emperor.

When the emperor saw Chang Yi's angry face, he knew that he had something to look for him, so he sent all the people around him away.

"Tell me something!"

"Father, the son wants to know, why didn't you ignore the incident when the mother concubine fell into the well?" Chang Yi didn't beat around the bush, but asked directly.

The emperor looked at Chang Yi, and he slowly spoke after a long time, "Didn't I say that I was not allowed to mention anything back then?" ”

Xu was recovering from a serious illness, so he still looked a little haggard.

"Why not mention it? Do you really think that the concubine is going to fall into the well if she can't think about it? Erchen doesn't understand, who are you doing this to protect? Chang Yi's face was pale, he blamed the emperor, twenty years have passed since the incident, and the queen has been free for twenty years, but his mother and concubine are buried in the cold ground and do not see the light of day.

As soon as Chang Yi said this, the faces of the people on the dragon chair changed, "Who do you think I am defending?" His voice was so deep that it scared people when they heard it.

"Aren't you defending your high queen? Worried that she would be criticized by the world, worried that she would affect the reputation of the royal family, so you could bear to let your mother die in vain for twenty years. Chang Yi's emotions became more and more excited, and he couldn't take care of them a lot between words.

"Presumptuous!" The emperor slapped the table angrily, "Have you spoken to your father like this?" ”

"You also know the father of the son, but how have you treated the son-in-law all these years? Erchen just wants to give his mother a justice, why don't you just refuse? ”
