The warmth between Qi Yang and Lu Qipei didn't last long, Lu Qipei didn't even have time to wait for Qi Yang to let go, and the gradually warming atmosphere was broken by Zhi Ting who came in a hurry.
If it was normal, Zhi Ting would have avoided seeing the two of them being intimate, but today she was obviously in a hurry, so she hurriedly said, "Your Highness, it's not good, there seems to be something wrong in the palace, Your Majesty. Please enter the palace with your concubine as soon as possible!"
His Majesty is now a little emperor. Although he is smart, he has never really come into contact with the government. He has been taught by the prince for several months, and he only knows a little bit. Therefore, he has not interfered in all the recent government affairs, and only allows Qi Yang to discuss with several auxiliary ministers. He just listens silently, learns, and asks Qi Yang privately if he does not understand.
Qi Yang also did his best to the current little emperor, just as he had promised the previous prince that day. When she heard that something happened in the palace, the little emperor urgently summoned her, so she couldn't care about anything else, she took off the veil and was about to leave.
Lu Qipei grabbed her and said helplessly, "Wait, Your Highness, you need to clean up before entering the palace."
Qi Yang looked down when he heard the words, and then remembered that he had just got up, and that Lu Qipei had come to bring her hot water for washing. I can't help but feel a little embarrassed at the moment, and I don't know how to react with the cold handkerchief.
Seeing this, Lu Qipei's eyes softened a little, and his previous cautiousness gradually receded. She pushed Qi Yang to the dressing table, and while she twisted the handkerchief to clean Qi Yang's face, she instructed Zhi Ting, who passed the message, to dress Qi Yang.
Qi Yang sat blankly, letting the two do what they did, without calling the maid next to him. The two quickly packed her up, and Lu Qipei prepared a plain long dress for her. When urging her to change clothes, he quickly went back to the study and changed into the clothes he was going out. After only a quarter of an hour, he was ready to go out.
When he left the house, Lu Qipei tied a purse around Qiyang's waist, and Wen Yan told her, "There are so many affairs in the palace these days, I don't know if you are eating on time. This purse contains some jerky, if you miss your meal, you will If you are hungry, you can be very hungry even if you eat two pieces."
This is the habit of many ministers in the DPRK, especially those who work in Dali Temple like Lu Qipei. When you are busy, you will never finish, so it is necessary to prepare some food around you. It's just that Qi Yang used to hang a purse on Lu Qipei's waist and told her, but today it's all the other way around... Lu Qipei did it fairly well, but Qi Yang couldn't help but look at her twice.
It was just a look, but Lu Qipei seemed to understand it and pointed to his waist with a smile: "I have it too."
The first emperor died, the young emperor was young, and there would be more troubles if there were no people in the palace. Therefore, since the death of the late emperor, Lu Qipei has also paid a lot of attention to the patrolling of the palace. Before the new Yulin commander was elected, she almost took care of Yulin's affairs. In addition, the Dali Temple has to show up occasionally, so Lu Qipei has not had an easy life these days.
Qi Yang looked at the purses of the same style as the two of them, and his heart softened suddenly. She nodded lightly, the coldness between her brows melted away a little, and finally showed her soft side to her sweetheart: "That's good, you also have to be careful about your body."
Lu Qipei could naturally notice the change in Qi Yang's attitude this morning, and couldn't help showing a look of surprise - she thought that Qi Yang would be angry for a longer time, but in a short period of time, her attitude eased again.
The corners of his lips couldn't help raising a smile, and the co-authoring of the good spring was even more brilliant: "Okay, then let's go to the palace now."
A rare good mood will always be thought of to destroy. As soon as Lu Qipei and Qi Yang entered the Xuanshi Hall, they saw the aggressive King Wei, the third division with the old god, and the little emperor who was at a loss.
When the little emperor saw Qi Yang and Lu Qipei entering the palace, his eyes suddenly lit up and he called, "Aunt, uncle!"
Qi Yang and Lu Qipei first bowed to the little emperor, and then looked at King Wei, who was obviously not a good visitor, and then asked, "Your Majesty has urgently summoned me and my concubine into the palace, I don't know why?"
With Qi Yang and Lu Qipei present, the little emperor seemed to have a little more confidence, and he no longer seemed to be at a loss before. He looked at Qi Yang, showing a bit of embarrassment, and explained in a low voice: "Aunt has worked hard for her nephew these days, and she only went back to the mansion to rest yesterday. I... I didn't want to disturb him. But Uncle Wei entered the palace today and was aggressively trying to meet him. My uncle asked me the guilt, and I had no choice but to announce that my aunt and uncle entered the palace."
Hearing the word "asking for a crime", Qi Yang's heart skipped a beat. It was true that Lu Qipei had too many secrets that no one should know - her relationship with Xie Yuan, her daughter's secret, and Chaoyang Tower, which was almost settled. In a case, any exposure is a big deal.
However, his heart was not calm, but Qi Yang did not reveal the slightest, and looked at King Wei with two points of ridicule in his eyes: "Oh? Then I would like to hear, what did my concubine do? To ask Brother Wei to come to inquire about the crime?"
King Wei was stabbed by her sharp gaze, and the originally high momentum seemed to have weakened by two points.
But for a moment, King Wei remembered what he was going to expose today, and he couldn't help feeling proud. He looked at Qi Yang with two points of pity instead: "Qi Yang, don't be obsessed with it. It's for your brother's sake."
Qi Yang didn't want to pay attention to him, and turned to look at the little emperor: "I don't know what the concubine has done, please ask Your Majesty to show me."
The little emperor looked at Qi Yang and then at King Wei. He coughed lightly, but he was also partial: "Uncle Wei suddenly entered the palace today and sued Concubine Lu for having ulterior motives. It was for the sake of the Kingdom of Rong." After a short pause, he added in a deep voice: "It's also related to the Chaoyang Tower assassination case."
When Qi Yang heard the little emperor's words, he was in a mixed mood. For a while, he couldn't figure out what King Wei had found, and he dared to come to the emperor to complain. But of course it is impossible to admit it. Even if the evidence is solid, she will have to defend it, so she sneered: "Brother Wei is really a man who repays revenge for his kindness. If I knew this, the concubine in the hunting ground should not have saved you that day."
King Wei was embarrassed by what she said, but at this time he also remembered that when Qiu Shou fell off his horse and was rescued by Lu Qipei. However, this doesn't take away his purpose today, and it's not natural for him to say: "Speaking of business, you don't have to talk about other things."
Qi Yang didn't give Lu Qipei a chance to refute at all, and he was already charging ahead. She looked at King Wei, trying to judge something from his expression, but she continued to mock her: "Yes, even if Rong Guo's fine work will not see you die, it shows that Brother Wei and Rong Guo have a deep connection."
General Zhen Guo, who was watching the lively from the side, couldn't help laughing, and then quickly closed his mouth and continued to laugh.
When King Wei heard the sound, he jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on: "Qiyang, what nonsense are you talking about? This king's good prince is now also the prince of Daliang, how could he be associated with that barbarian? Plain and filthy people are innocent!"
Qi Yang said lightly: "Then you are not innocent of my concubine's innocence, aren't you?"
King Wei immediately pointed at Lu Qipei and said, "How can I be slandered? Take a good look at this face named Lu. Back then, she looked like the kid from Beirong, and everyone saw it. Now you Look at the portrait of Beirong Xie Yuan, is it more like her? She is clearly the son and nephew of Xie Yuan, who changed her name and changed her surname to come to my Daliang to conspire!"
While speaking, King Wei picked up a scroll from the imperial case beside him and unfolded it. The man in the painting then appeared in front of people, and looking at his appearance and temperament, he really looked like Lu Qipei in six or seven parts, only his face was tougher, and he added a few short beards.
Qi Yang and Lu Qipei had never met Xie Yuan, and they had no spare energy to pay attention to what he looked like after all these years of planning. Now that I heard that King Wei had a portrait of Xie Yuan in his hand, the two were actually very curious and came together to see it. After only looking at it, I couldn't help frowning. I always felt that this portrait looked strange, and I couldn't tell what was strange.
But no matter how strange it was, Qi Yang couldn't admit anything, so he said disdainfully, "Brother Wei asked someone to draw a portrait at random, and he said it was Xie Yuan, and he said it was evidence. Don't you think it's too hasty?"
When King Wei heard the words, he wanted to refute, but Qi Yang didn't give him a chance to speak, and added: "Xie Yuan has been in Beirong for more than 20 years, and I haven't seen his face. Besides, he is dead now, and I want to ask for evidence. The difficulty is even more difficult, and the words will naturally follow the emperor's brother. Otherwise, take a step back, what the emperor said is true, the concubine and Xie Yuan are very similar, but are there fewer people who look alike in this world?"
As Qi Yang said that, he glanced at King Wei and fluttered down a sentence: "Brother Huang, believe it or not, if you send your portrait to the prefecture, you will be able to find three or five people who are so similar to you in a month. Is it all the blood of my royal family that strays outside?"
The prime minister still looked like the old god was there, a smile flashed in King Lu's eyes, and General Zhen Guo had turned his back and smiled.
The little emperor's eyes were sparkling, watching his aunt stun King Wei who was looking for trouble - the little emperor was actually very smart, and he could see the purpose of King Wei today. On the surface, it is aimed at the concubine, but in fact, why is it not aimed at Qiyang? However, Qi Yang and his concubine are the little emperor's biggest reliance today. Once the two lose, the little emperor's situation will be in jeopardy.
The reason why the three masters did not intervene at all was precisely because they had seen through these. Now that the three talents have just taken over the post of auxiliary government, they have managed to stabilize the situation in the DPRK and China. They really don't want to make trouble with King Wei.
King Wei was very angry with Qi Yang, but he couldn't say anything about her. Furthermore, he actually knew in his heart that if he wanted to overthrow Lu Qipei with a portrait, unless the little emperor and the third division had something to do with her. Just like Xie Yuan at the beginning, if Emperor Rong had not had a quarrel with him and had murderous intentions, a fake corpse would prove nothing at all, and Xie Yuan could have escaped the crime with a three-inch tongue.
Therefore, some guilt is simply between the thoughts of the superior.
And now the time has not come, the portrait is just an introduction. King Wei couldn't say anything about Qi Yang, so he let it go for the time being. He glared at Qi Yang angrily, but raised his chin again and said, "Let's talk about the Chaoyang Tower case, I have proof!"
These words caught everyone's attention. Lu Qipei watched Qi Yang scolded people for a long time, and finally had the opportunity to stand up and say the first sentence: "Then ask His Highness King Wei's witness to go to the palace, just to confront Lu Mou in the palace."
The author has something to say: Qi Yang (hit people): Only I can bully my concubine, not others!
Lu Qipei (excited): His Highness is mighty, kill him!
Her Royal Highness the Princess instantly changed from being angry and awkward to being unanimous, and turned into a wife-protecting madman in minutes...
