Then he invited Gu Wenhua into the mansion, Gu Wenhua didn't feel strange when he saw Qianwu in the Xu Mansion early in the morning, but looked around while walking, "Why is Lord Jin's mansion so dilapidated, it's all collapsed......"

Ruxu touched his nose and said, "Oh, I was robbed in the house last night, and my men went to arrest people and inevitably fought with the other party...... And that's what it looks like. ”

Gu Wenhua always felt that this sounded a little suspicious, but he couldn't find a flaw, "This thief is also bold, this is Baohuafang...... Lord Kim, you should take precautions in the future. ”

All the promises were agreed.

"Let's talk...... The king went back to his house first. Qianwu was not interested in their conversation, so he interrupted the two to prepare to go back to the palace.

"Now that the matter has been resolved, please ask the prince to bring the peach blossoms over in the afternoon." Ru Xu said behind him.

Chiki turned her head and smiled and nodded, then strode to leave.

"Hey, lord!" Gu Wenhua immediately stopped Qianwu, "Weichen actually has something to do with today, and this matter is also related to the prince, so the prince still stays to listen." ”

Qianwu glanced at Gu Wenhua, Ruxu always felt that what he was going to say was not a good thing.

Then the three of them went to the main hall, and asked Gu Wenhua to sit down, "Lord Shilang, please tell me something." ”

Gu Wenhua's face was embarrassed, not only was he ashamed to speak, but he was also afraid of annoying Qianwu, so he said, "I heard that Lord Jin has a daughter?" ”

Ruxu nodded and said, "The little girl's name is Peach Blossom." ”

"I don't know Lord Jin's wife......" Gu Wenhua wanted to speak and stopped.

"My wife died of an emergency a few years ago, and I raised the peach blossoms alone." Ru Xu opened his eyes and said nonsense, and Qianwu was also the first time he heard Ru Xu mention Peach Blossom's biological mother, and he also listened carefully.

"Oh, oh......" Gu Wenhua's head oozed sweat, "Some time ago, Lord Jin told me that the house had a new concubine, and the concubine was still very shy...... Is this true? ”

"Concubine?" Who? When was it accepted? Qian Wu glanced at Ruxu coldly.

Ruxu cleared his throat in disguise, although his heart had been twisted, he still looked calm with his body.

This Gu Wenhua is really strange, she suddenly came to visit, not talking about business or literature, how could she care about these trivial things in her family?

"What the squire wants to say, just say it directly, and you don't have to beat around the bush." Ruxu skipped the topic.

"Recently, it has been rumored in the DPRK that Lord Kim is ...... Yes, broken sleeves. Gu Wenhua stubbornly said, "You also said that your object is...... It's ......"

"Is it the king?" Chiki answered.

Gu Wenhua nodded, and seeing that the two of them were in a stable mood and didn't seem to react, he spoke, "This matter worries Lord Zhu very much, for fear of tarnishing the good names of the prince and Lord Jin...... He sent me to talk to the two of you and ask them to clarify. lest it spread to the people and cause criticism, and some foul language affected the office life of the two. ”

What should come will come. Ruxu sighed in his heart.

Qianwu's fingers knocked on the table in an orderly manner, holding his face with one hand, and looking at Ruxu with interest with his phoenix eyes, "What does Mr. Xu mean?" ”

Ruxu glanced at him obliquely, and said lightly to Gu Wenhua, "There is no such thing." A dignified man naturally marries a wife and takes a concubine, how can such an absurd fallacy be spread? Besides, the object is still the current Nan Wangye, which is really outrageous. ”

Gu Wenhua nodded in agreement.

When Qianwu heard her say this, the smile on her face deepened, "Where is Mr. Xu's concubine?" I want to meet him, too! ”

Ruxu gritted his teeth and looked at Qianmist. I'm protecting our reputation, why did you deliberately dismantle the stage?

Reputation? What's that? Qianwu raised his eyebrows noncommittally, stood up and said, "This king and Mr. Xu got along and slept together in the past, but they didn't know that Mr. Xu secretly took a concubine?" ”

Ru Xu was taken aback by what he said, and secretly glanced at Gu Wenhua, only to see that the other party had been petrified in place.

"Could it be that Mr. Xu is the concubine he said...... Referring to this king? Qianwu leaned down to look at Ruxu, touched his chin, and smiled very brightly, "So it sounds like Mr. Xu still has plans to marry a wife?" Oh no, it should be a continuation of the string, could it be that it is not enough to have one of me, Mr. Xu still plans to continue the string? ”

Qianwu approached Ruxu as she spoke, and Ruxu had to lean against the back of her chair. She listened to his words, and her head jumped.

"Huh? Mr. Hui...... Do you have any plans to do so? Qianwu lowered her phoenix eyes, and her eyes were sharp and forceful.

"I, I'm ......" I don't know if it's because I'm nervous or because I'm at a loss, I stutter when I speak, "I'm ...... I didn't ......."

Suddenly, Qianwu retreated and looked at Gu Wenhua and said, "This king has always been reckless, unruly, and never looks at other people's eyes when he does things. Let the people on the outside say whatever they say, the important thing is not to stop the rumors, but to steer them in the right direction. ”

Ruxu exchanged glances with Qianwu, lowered his eyes and glanced at Gu Wenhua, "Squire go back first." ”

Gu Wenhua listened to Qianwu's words, he was stunned for a while, he was already shocked on the outside and tender on the inside, he seemed to hear Ruxu say to let him go, so he got up and hurriedly saluted, and then left Xu's mansion quickly.

"Is the prince crazy?" As soon as Gu Wenhua left, Ruxu got up and looked at Qianwu with a gloomy face, "What if the emperor finds out what I am investigating in the future, and it involves the prince?" ”

"You have to believe me, I know my father. If I try to clarify, he will be skeptical, and the more he admits it, the less he will believe it. Qianwu put his arm around her shoulder, "Don't worry, in two days, the palace won't pay attention to this matter anymore." ”

Ruxu looked up at him, "What arrangements did the prince make?" ”

"You just wait and see the show." Chiki took her in her arms.

In the next two or three days, Ruxu went to the household department to be on duty and made up for the previous shift. On the first day of duty, the Ministry of Works, which is also in Jiqingfang, will visit from time to time. Sometimes it's a pre-quote for the delivery work, and sometimes it's to confirm the purchase of the material.

The adults who work with the Ministry of Finance think it is very strange, in the past, the Ministry of Household sent budgets and account books, when did the Ministry of Industry so arrogant department also come to the door to do such a small thing? Could it be that Yuan Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry has changed his temperament recently?

Ruxu said lightly, "It's all here to gossip, don't pay attention to it." ”

But from the next day onwards, I didn't come again. Because there was a shocking explosion in the palace.

The Chang'an Palace suddenly exploded and made a loud noise last night, and then Qin Zheng led the forbidden army to check the situation, and during the search, he saw the secret room in the east courtyard, and sent someone to investigate, and took out bottles and cans containing poison from inside, as well as all kinds of terrifying torture instruments.

The emperor immediately summoned Concubine An to Chengyang Palace, and the father-in-law who came to deliver the message was waiting at the gate of Chang'an Palace.

"Don't worry, Lop has an idea." The lop ear shook the concubine's hand.

Concubine An seemed to have found a life-saving straw in her panic, and grabbed her lop hand and said, "What is it, say it quickly!" ”

"Since it has been expected that Sister Liuli will be more auspicious, the mother is not as good as ...... Put all the blame on her. She is no longer alive, and Niangniang doesn't have to worry about the East Window incident. Besides, Sister Liuli is loyal to her mother, and she believes that she must be willing in the spirit of heaven. Lop said.

An Guifei thought for a while, "It's not impossible, but if Liuli is still alive......"

"Niangniang can't protect herself, what else is left to care about others? Although Sister Liuli is a confidant of Niangniang, she is still a maid at all, and her original duty as a slave is to make the master worry-free. Lop looked at Concubine An earnestly, "Besides, if Sister Liuli is still alive, Niangniang can let her hide outside the palace for a while, and come back when the limelight is over." ”

"As the saying goes, staying in Qingshan is not worrying about no firewood, as long as Niangniang keeps her position, it is equivalent to keeping Sister Liuli." The lop-eared man smiled harmlessly.

The father-in-law who came to deliver the message at the door of this matter urged again, and supported An Guifei with his ears, An Guifei nodded at her, and walked out of Chang'an Hall after calming down.

then went to Chengyang Palace, and Concubine An Guifei pushed everything on Liuli.

The emperor was so angry that smoke rose above his head, and ordered the east courtyard of the Chang'an Palace to be blocked, and ordered Lu Gaoqiu and Jingzhao Mansion Yin to track down Liuli's whereabouts. Under the operation of someone with a heart, this matter leaked outside the palace within two days, and quickly spread to every corner of Kyoto. Everyone is speculating about various mysteries, including this palace maid named "Liuli".

Ruxu also heard about it, she knew that it was Qianwu who was guiding the rumors behind, but she didn't know the purpose of his doing, so she could only listen to him and watch the play obediently.

The matter fermented for another three or five days, and at this time, there was news that Commander Qin Zheng had seized Liuli. Concubine An of Chang'an Hall heard that Qin Zheng had captured Liuli and almost fainted on the spot. She was worried that Liuli would leak information, and if the Criminal Department found out something, once what Liuli said contradicted her confession, the emperor would find out that what she said was a lie, which was the crime of bullying the king, and she would lose her head.

"No, Ruri is so loyal to me, I should believe that she won't leak a single thing until she dies." An Guifei's eyes flickered, and her heart was extremely unstable.

Lop brought her a bowl of soup, and Concubine An took it, "Lop, do you think this palace should believe Liuli?" ”

"Of course it should be ......," he said.

"Say whatever you want, don't be struggling!" An Guifei is annoyed now, and she doesn't have the patience to think about this matter at all.

"Actually, it's nothing, lop ears have no intention of separating the mother and sister Liuli...... It's just that I've heard that there are thousands of ways to extort confessions from the Criminal Department, and I'm just afraid of complications. ”

"Looks like it's time to go to the prison." Concubine An thought about it and made a decision.
