Chapter 765: The Troublemakers Are Coming
But this also speaks to everyone's heart, in the eyes of everyone, Lu Baichuan is a villain, and he used insidious means behind his back to make the emperor and the prince defend them like this, otherwise who would be promoted so quickly!
On the other side, Lu Baichuan had already followed the prince out of the hall, and the prince was very angry and scolded along the way.
"These old stubborn just don't have a brain, relying on their old age and not doing business all day long, they will rely on the old and sell the old! I usually want to give them three points of thin noodles, but I didn't expect them to be more and more excessive! ”
"I thought that if you came up with so many detailed works this time, they would be able to change their opinion of you, but I didn't expect the prejudice to become more and more big."
The prince kept saying that the eunuchs who followed behind wanted to be deaf, if this was spread by someone with a heart, if His Royal Highness the prince was to be held accountable, they would be to blame!
In contrast, Lu Baichuan was much calmer and said: "Those who are pure are self-purifying, and Your Highness does not need to mind." And the results of the scientific examination are coming out soon, Your Highness should take the opportunity to cultivate more talents for his own use. ”
The crown prince nodded: "This palace understands that the scientific expedition is all personally watched. By the way, what do you want to do about Zhuo Jiayu's matter? ”
"Stay closed for a few more days and see where the limit of the Muguo Mansion is."
Lu Baichuan had already planned, anyway, he was in charge of the prison now, and it was not easy for anyone to come.
"Do you still suspect that Mu Guogong has a relationship with Dongting?"
The prince didn't believe it, after all, like Mu Guogong, he really didn't look like a person with that brain.
Lu Baichuan didn't answer directly, just smiled: "How do you know if you don't try?" ”
"That's right, just go what you want to do, and then those old stubborns will trouble you again, and the palace will help you suppress it, but the Muguo Mansion may come to you for trouble, pay more attention."
The prince naturally believed in Lu Baichuan, so he would not waver no matter what others said.
This friendship was cultivated by them when they were most difficult for each other.
Lu Baichuan nodded and said, "Your Highness, rest assured, the minister will not make His Highness too embarrassed." ”
The crown prince was able to eliminate the prejudices of those courtiers and still trust his judgment, and he was already very happy in his heart.
In fact, I suspect that Mu Guogong's Mansion has not been a day or two, and he has been asking Lou Chong to investigate the things of the year recently, but Lou Chong found a very strange thing.
Over the years, Ming Ze has been secretly suppressing the Muguo Mansion, and the Muguo Mansion has indeed fallen, but it can always stand, which is very abnormal.
At first, he thought that Ming Ze deliberately boiled the frog in warm water and slowly tortured the Muguo Mansion, but later he found out that there was another hidden secret.
Every once in a while, the situation in Muguo's Mansion will improve, in other words, someone has been sending him money.
And the money is still the income from the shop under the name of Mu Guogong, but Lou Chong went to check, the shop did not make money at all, and it was impossible to have so much income, so it could only prove that someone was secretly sending money to Mu Guogong's mansion.
Who it is is not known for the time being.
At that time, Lu Baichuan didn't connect the Muguo Mansion with the Dongting people, and it wasn't until Zhuo Jiayu began to find excuses to approach him some time ago, and took the opportunity to see the Dongting people many times, that Lu Baichuan began to be suspicious.
Although there was no evidence to name him as a native of the Eastern Court, Lu Baichuan suddenly thought of what the three princes said before, that his daughter-in-law was the child of the Eastern Court, and it was connected in an instant.
So, the daughter-in-law who was found before may be the daughter of King Xun, and now he is said to be the daughter of a person from the Eastern Court, that is to say, it is very likely that King Xun is from the Eastern Court?
Lu Baichuan also felt that it was impossible when he first had this idea, after all, King Xun was the younger brother of the old emperor, and the reason why he was exiled was because of the official saying that he had a heart of rebellion, but the old emperor took care of face and did not publicize it, so the world did not know the specific reason.
Now it seems that it is very likely that it was discovered that there was collusion between King Xun and the Eastern Court, or that King Xun was pretending to be from the Eastern Court, so there was exile.
However, if these speculations are true, then the old emperor must have been too merciful.
That's why there are so many calamities.
When those things happened, the crown prince was still young, and he shouldn't know very comprehensively, unless he asked the old ministers who participated in this matter, or directly asked the old emperor.
However, although the relationship with the old emperor is not bad now, it is not enough to ask people directly about this kind of secret, which is too serious about themselves.
Of course, if his daughter-in-law asked, maybe the old emperor would still be willing to say, but he was not willing to let his daughter-in-law do everything, then he would be too useless.
After coming out of the palace, Lu Baichuan went directly to the cell, but saw his little servant waiting anxiously at the door, saw him coming, hurriedly greeted him and said: "Master, it's not good, Mrs. Zhuo of Muguo Mansion sent someone to the mansion early in the morning to make trouble, the little one said that the masters were not there, and she took someone to the barracks to make trouble, Huang Bo was worried that Mrs. was not easy to deal with, so let the little one come and tell the master." ”
Just now in the palace, the crown prince said that the people of Muguo Mansion would go to find trouble, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.
Lu Baichuan responded, turned the horse's head directly and went to the barracks.
Although he knew that his daughter-in-law could solve it, he couldn't ignore it.
And on the side of the barracks, the Yan clan had already brought a string of servants to make a fuss outside.
However, the Yan family was still worried, but it didn't make too much trouble, but he insisted on seeing He Jiuniang.
Yes, after standing outside all morning, I haven't been able to see He Jiuniang yet, because the soldiers said that their sister-in-law is still sleeping, and no one dares to quarrel with her.
The Yan family wanted to tear his face several times, but thinking of the current power of the Lu family, and then thinking of his master's explanation, even if he was in a hurry to get angry again, he could only grit his teeth and wait.
When He Jiuniang woke up and came out slowly after breakfast, Yan and a group of people had been standing outside for more than an hour.
"It's the Duchess of the Kingdom, how did you find here?"
When He Jiuniang came out, she was still holding a fruit in her hand and gnawing on it, her posture was very leisurely and relaxed, and she could make Yan's anger half to death as soon as she opened her mouth.
Yan gritted his teeth, but still stepped forward with a smile on his face and said: "Mrs. Lu, we all heard about what happened last night, the little girl got into trouble in prison, and all the mistakes were her fault, but for the sake of not causing any big mistakes, I asked Mrs. Lu to help me intercede with General Lu and let the little girl go!" ”
Speaking, without waiting for He Jiuniang to speak, Yan began to wipe her tears, and said: "That child has been spoiled by us since she was a child, she has no bad intentions, she was just deceived, and please help Mrs. for the sake of your similar age." She hasn't suffered much since she was a child, but she was locked up with those fine works, and she doesn't know what she's afraid of, I'm a mother, and I feel distressed just thinking about it......
