"Otherwise, in the future, all the fiefdoms of the Donglan Kingdom will only listen to Haoqiang and not the imperial court, and the law and discipline of the Donglan Kingdom will not be chaotic for a long time?"

After the emperor listened to Lu Li's words, he didn't understand Lu Li's point at all, Lu Li's focus was to let the emperor quickly deal with the affairs of Yuzhou, but he didn't expect the emperor to be angry and directly pushed all the things on the table to the ground.

I only saw the teacup rolling to the ground and falling directly to pieces.

What, someone dares to pretend to be the prefect? Who is so bold, I think there are really some people in Donglan Country who are too arrogant recently, and they dare to do such a thing as pretending to be a prefect!

Seeing the emperor so angry, Lu Li also felt very helpless, he obviously wanted the emperor to focus on the affairs of the Zhang family, but he didn't expect it to bring disaster to Li Ran.

Lu Li hurriedly told the emperor again.

Your Majesty, it is important to solve the affairs of the Zhang family now, and it is not too late for the person who pretended to be the prefect to be convicted.

But the emperor didn't listen at all, at this time, the fake prefect was clearly challenging his imperial power, his anger had burned to his heart, how could he let it go, so he said to Lu Li.

"Su Shuo, since you know about this matter, you immediately go and arrest this fake prefect for me, torture him fiercely, and ask him why he is pretending to be the prefect, as for this matter of the Zhang family, I will naturally deal with it."

Lu Li didn't expect him to say this, but instead dug a big pit for Li Ran, but since the emperor had a magic spirit, he had no choice but to take people and horses to Lu Mansion and arrest Li Ran.

Before arresting Li Ran, Lu Li naturally greeted him and asked him to live in prison for a while, and he would definitely find an opportunity to tell the emperor about Yuzhou again.

Hearing that the emperor was going to arrest himself in prison, Li Ran's heart was cold, thinking that although he said that he had no talent and was a rough man, but it was also because Yuzhou had worked hard for so many years, but the emperor didn't think about such a payment at all, and blindly felt that he pretended to be the prefect for his own selfish interests.

How can such a person be a good monarch?

Now Li Ran and Xianglan were both arrested in the prison of the Criminal Department, Lu Li also felt a headache when he looked at these two people, to say that these two people could not use the punishment, but if they did not use the punishment at all, it would inevitably make the people below unable to look at it, which made Lu Li in the prison of the Criminal Department not know how to deal with it.

Xiaoman is idle at home. Take a walk in the garden. Just as she was walking in the garden, the sachet that Pandan had given her fell out, and Pearl picked it up, patted the dust on it, and handed it to Xiaoman.

Xiaoman saw that the epiphany embroidered on it was still so lifelike, and the white epiphany seemed to have a gentle brilliance.

"Madam, I think this pandan girl is so strange, don't ordinary girls embroider some plum orchid bamboo chrysanthemums, or mandarin ducks, why is she the only one embroidering epiphany."

Su Xiaoman smiled slightly, and explained to Pearl.

"That's because she said that the people she admires also like epiphany, so she probably thinks about things."

Pearl nodded, "That's really strange, to say that there are few big people in the capital who like epiphany, Madame still remembers that during the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, Lord Zhang Yu invited everyone to his mansion to see epiphany blooming." ”

Xiao Man nodded, she naturally remembered, to say that Zhang Yu is indeed a person who loves epiphany in the capital, and the epiphany in his garden was in one night, and it was time for the flowers to bloom, so he specially invited the dignitaries and nobles in Beijing to watch the epiphany together.

That night the epiphany was really fragrant, smooth and charming, just when Xiao Man was suddenly stunned, as if he had thought of something, Xiao Man's expression startled the pearl.

Madame, what's wrong with you, do you remember something?

Xiao Man naturally nodded, "Yes, why didn't I think that Pearl said that epiphany is a flower that the people she admires like, isn't that Zhang Yuruo, who else in the capital would like epiphany so much except Zhang Yu." ”

"Epiphany..."

"Since she admires Lord Zhang Yu, why does Xianglan have to listen to Zhang An's orders, is she really an ordinary killer of the Zhang family?"

Pearl naturally realized when she heard Xiaoman say this, but she didn't expect that the person she admired as a thirteen-year-old child was actually such an old person as Lord Zhang Yu, which was really unexpected.

"Pearl, you go and check it out for me immediately, the details of the pandan must be as detailed as possible, no matter who you ask about, no matter how much money you spend, I must immediately know the details of this pandan, I think he is definitely not so simple The person who was arranged by Zhang An."

Seeing that Su Xiaoman was talking so seriously, Pearl immediately retreated, and after Pearl inquired with many people, he wrote down all these materials on paper and sent them to Su Xiaoman.

At this time, Xiaoman was drinking tea and playing chess in Li Niang's room, if you want to say this Go, Su Xiaoman is naturally not as good as Li Niang, to say that Li Niang's decision to kill is also quite reflected on the chessboard, many attacks are attacks, and they should retreat and retreat a few times, which made Su Xiaoman fall into the trap.

Pearl handed these materials to Xiao Man, Xiao Man gave them to Li Niang after reading it, Li Niang's eyes opened wide after reading it, and she seemed to be quite surprised by this matter, only to see Pearl and Su Xiaoman said.

"Madam, although this Xianglan is not a person from Beijing, and as you expected, she is indeed from Chongqing, but she was sent to Beijing by the Zhang family's family at the age of seven, and has been working in Lord Zhang Yu's mansion until the past two years, and it stands to reason that her connection with the family is not as close as you think, Zhang An has no reason to choose her as a killer, and Lord Zhang Yu looks at Xianglan pitifully, and her feelings for her are more like that of her adoptive father, and she has a lot of care for her, and she admires Lord Zhang Yu, It's not for nothing. ”

After hearing these words, Li Niang suddenly stood up and said to Xiao Man.

"I know that this Xianglan is wrong, I have now completely seen through what Zhang An's thoughts are, he didn't want Xianglan to assassinate the emperor at all, but deliberately let Xianglan miss, so that the emperor will know that Xianglan is an assassin, and then he will naturally find out the details of Xianglan, and pull out Lord Zhang Yu along the way, plus we originally had a lot of suspicions about Lord Zhang Yu, and now misled the emperor to focus on Lord Zhang Yu alone, do you say that the emperor will let him go?"

Hearing Li Niang say this, Xiao Man suddenly became nervous, he didn't expect that they all made the flag on the chessboard and were used by Zhang An, if they didn't find out that this Xianglan had something to do with Zhang Yu, how could they directly mention the matter of Yuzhou to the emperor, thinking that the emperor was ready to make a move to Lord Zhang Yu.

"But that Lord Zhang Yu is the foundation of the Zhang family, if there is no Lord Zhang Yu, the fief will inevitably be taken back by the imperial court, and the Zhang family can no longer be taken for himself, what is Zhang An doing this for?"

Li Niang shook her head.

"Xiaoman, haven't you figured it out, this Zhang An is ambitious, what he wants is not just a fiefdom, he wants the entire Donglan Kingdom, so he wants to be the leader of the Zhang family, and he wants to lead the entire family to encroach on the Donglan Kingdom little by little, if Lord Zhang Yu is in one day, the backbone of the Zhang family is Lord Zhang Yu, if Lord Zhang Yu opens his mouth to stop this grandson, will the Zhang family still not listen to Lord Zhang Yu, so he must get rid of his own grandfather in order to become the leader of the Zhang family."

Li Niang took a sip of tea, and a little cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

"As for this fiefdom, now that Zhang Yu is covering the sky in Yuzhou, how can it be recovered if the court says it can be recovered."

Xiao Man covered his mouth, looking a little frightened, to say that the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren is quite precious, is this Zhang An's humanity annihilated to this point, maybe he wants to kill his grandfather with his own hands.

"Liniang, if you say this, Zhang An is too ruthless, he is simply not worthy of being a grandson, he is so ruthless to his grandfather, this scheming is too deep."

"Of course, if he is not scheming, how can he be ranked with me as one of the three wise minds in the world, if he doesn't have this city, how can he compete with Lu Li for the throne?"

Just when Li Niang said this, Lu Li suddenly returned to Lu Mansion in a hurry from the Criminal Department, and hurriedly said to Xiaoman.

Xiaoman. The emperor just sent someone to check Xianglan's bottom line, and now he has already arrested Lord Zhang Yu and put him in the criminal department.

You must know that Lu Li didn't know that they were being used for these things, so Su Xiaoman told Lu Li everything they had come to with the conclusions, Lu Li didn't expect that he had become Zhang An's accomplice and wanted to kill this Zhang Yu alive.

It seems that Lord Zhang Yu didn't know anything about the emperor's assassination, but when he saw Xianglan actually mixed in the team of the imperial dining room, he was worried about her, and he would show such a look that made Xiao Man suspicious.

"Now it seems that I can only go to the Criminal Department to ask Xianglan for questioning, I want to know what kind of role Xianglan plays in this matter, and whether it is really as we think."

After Xiao Man finished speaking, he picked up the sachet embroidered with epiphany on it, and hurriedly ran to the prison of the Criminal Department, to say that the boss of the Criminal Department was heavily guarded, but fortunately, Xiao Man got Lu Li's warrant, so it was naturally unimpeded, and he came directly to Xianglan.

Xianglan was tortured by the jailer at this time to be a little inhuman, although Lu Li did not put any torture tools on her, but she didn't eat or drink for a few days, and she was watered with cold water, and she couldn't stand it, and now her face looked very pale, and she couldn't open her eyes, and her eyes were full of confusion.

Seeing Su Xiaoman coming, she smiled bitterly, she didn't expect this Mrs. Lu to come to her again, they were really destined.
