Lu Lei was doubtful and followed quietly.
But he found nothing. On the contrary, Goudan was reading faster and faster.
When Lu Lei didn't know, Wen Qingzhu was seriously teaching Goudan the way of the emperor.
"What is an emperor? He must put the people of the world first. Water can carry a boat but it can also capsize it. Do you understand?"
Goudan nodded seriously, writing his own understanding while listening to Wen Qingzhu's words.
Most of the day passed, and Wen Qingzhu stood by the window drinking tea.
Looking at the bleak sky outside the window, the lessons originally prepared for Fu'er, but unexpectedly they were used on Goudan.
That's good, at least the previous life won't come back again.
In early February, Li Du finally returned to the capital.
After checking Li Du's legs, Marquis Jingyuan and his wife immediately took Li Du to Qianyuan Palace to complain.
As soon as they arrived at the palace, Marquis Jingyuan and his wife immediately knelt down and cried bitterly.
Mrs. Jingyuan Hou started to cry without caring about her face. She was licking her nose with snot and tears. Looking at it made Jiang Yue feel sick.
"Your Majesty must make the decision for my wife's child. His leg is broken and it will never be restored to its original state in the future. I beg your Majesty to deal with it impartially. I ask no one else but to retaliate in kind! Otherwise, I will give up this leg." I must seek justice for Du'er!"
After hearing this, Jiang Yue couldn't help but frown and glanced at Li Du on the stretcher.
Before Marquis Jingyuan and his wife entered the palace, Fan Rong and his wife had already entered the palace to apologize.
The detailed situation is basically consistent with the information sent by the spy.
Li Du's leg injury was his own fault, and he did not follow the military doctor's instructions, which led to the consequences today.
"Jingyuan Marquis, what do you think?" Jiang Yue took a deep look at Li Wei who was kneeling next to him.
Li Wei cupped his hands, knelt deeply on the ground, and replied with a sad face: "I believe that your Majesty will handle it impartially!"
Jiang Yue was silent. The Marquis Jingyuan and his wife were determined to seek justice for Li Du.
At this moment, Concubine Li's voice came from outside: "Your Majesty, I heard that something happened to my nephew."
"Mother, you can't help it. Your Majesty is still working inside." Eunuch Fang, who was holding a whisk, and his two father-in-laws tried their best to stop Concubine Li and others.
"How dare you! How dare you stop me!" Concubine Li got the news early, and since she came here accurately, she naturally would not let herself be stopped.
Eunuch Fang didn't dare to really stop her. Concubine Li was sure that the emperor wanted to see Marquis Jingyuan's face, so she had to let her in.
Sure enough, Mo'er inside walked to the door and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, your Majesty invites you."
Only then did Eunuch Fang let people in.
Concubine Li rushed in immediately without stopping for a moment.
As soon as she arrived in the palace, she immediately threw herself in front of Li Du. She looked at his legs with great distress and began to cry loudly: "Poor Du'er, how could you become like this! Don't worry, Your Majesty, you will definitely give it to you. The one who calls the shots!”
Li Du's eyes were red, and he suppressed the sadness in his heart and nodded.
Seeing Concubine Li Guifei coming, Mrs. Jingyuan Hou turned around and cried out to Concubine Li: "Empress, you are Du'er's aunt, you must avenge Du'er!"
Concubine Li wiped away her tears and said seriously: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, Your Majesty will deal with it impartially, and I will not let Du'er suffer."
The show of affection between aunt and nephew was finally over. Concubine Li stood up, took a few steps forward, and asked with a sad look on her face: "Your Majesty, you have also seen Du'er like this. When he went to Youzhou, Bian, everyone is fine, why is it that only Duer has an accident? Your Majesty, please handle it impartially."
Jiang Yue looked at Concubine Li incomprehensibly, and asked leisurely: "Oh? Concubine, how do you think I should deal with it justly?"
Concubine Li speculated on the emperor's intention and showed no sign of relenting.
She was now very unsure about which side Jiang Yue was leaning towards.
Li Du lost those two small cities. Does the emperor know the inside story
Concubine Li sniffed and glanced at Jiang Yue resentfully: "Your Majesty, I am just a woman. I don't know anything about the matters in the court. But I know that only fairness and justice can achieve long-term solutions. This It’s not the nightmare that His Majesty taught me.”
"I did teach the noble concubine these words." Jiang Yue nodded with satisfaction. It seems that he, the noble concubine, is quite smart.
He turned to look at the person on the stretcher: "Li Du, tell me, what happened at that time?"
Seeing that Li Du finally had a chance to speak, he naturally belittled Fan Yu, Fu Lie and others by confusing right and wrong.
At the end, he said something cryptic: "Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to save the people and protect your Majesty's Daqi territory. It's because I was surprised when I discovered King Shou's people. After some hesitation, I finally Lost the opportunity."
"A person from King Shou?" Jiang Yue became a little more serious, "Please tell me in detail."
Seeing Jiang Yue taking the initiative to ask questions, Li Du told him what Prince Ning had taught him.
After hearing this, Jiang Yue fell silent.
The emperor did not speak, and the rest of the people naturally did not dare to take the initiative to ask questions.
After just waiting for half an hour, the kneeling Marquis Jingyuan almost couldn't hold on anymore.
Instead, it was Jasmine who reminded the emperor of the hour, and then the emperor asked everyone to retreat.
Mrs. Jingyuan Hou was unwilling to give in and wanted to say something, but she was stopped by Li Wei and Li Guifei.
That night, Jasmine came over to Leng Gong and vividly told Wen Qingzhu what happened during the day.
After listening to Jasmine's words, Wen Qingzhu thought seriously.
Jiang Yue said nothing. Fan Rong took the initiative to go to the palace to plead guilty, which proved that he was more sophisticated.
Wen Qingzhu came back to his senses and asked again: "Where did your Majesty go tonight? Did he rest in Qianyuan Palace or with another empress?"
"Your Majesty went to Concubine Hui's place."
A smile slowly appeared on Wen Qingzhu's lips: "Concubine Li is probably going to be angry to death. It seems that the words Prince Ning taught Li Du have had the opposite effect."
Jasmine didn't quite understand: "What do you mean?"
Wen Qingzhu stretched out his finger, dipped it in tea, and drew three circles on the table: "Now in the harem, there are basically three pillars. Concubine Li has the highest position, and the Li family holds military power. Since the death of Concubine Cheng, they The limelight is at its peak."
"But isn't Concubine Wan very favored recently?" Jasmine had been with the emperor for a long time, and she began to understand these court battles.
Wen Qingzhu waved his hand and erased half of the circle representing Wanbi: "The Yun family's family background is too poor. If Wanbi hadn't had the means herself, the King of Chu would have been forbearing enough. Last time Yunfeng made two mistakes and was sentenced to exile, he would have dragged them down. They can't confront Concubine Li now."
Jasmine nodded thoughtfully: "That slave knows that Concubine Hui's disadvantages are even more obvious. She has no son, and the Wei family is declining, which can't give her much help. So today, the people of the Li family have united to force Your Majesty." , Your Majesty went to Concubine Hui’s place to support Concubine Hui.”
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "That's right, and it doesn't count as supporting Concubine Hui. It's just that the emperor hates the Li family's arrogance, domineering, and scheming. He likes to have everything in his own hands. If you really want to scheme against him, you must obey him. You have to follow his temper, otherwise once the truth is revealed, you will be dead."
Hearing this, Jasmine broke out in a cold sweat.
Wen Qingzhu held Jasmine's hand and comforted her: "But don't be too afraid. I don't need you to do anything now. Just help me pay attention to the news in the court."
By the beginning of March, spring flowers are blooming.
The entire Li family was in a gloomy mood. Li Du injured his leg, his temper became more and more irritable, and his true nature was slowly revealed.
More and more beautiful girls were sent to the Li family by Yaxing, and more and more corpses were sent out.
Wen Qingzhu wrote a letter to inquire about Luo Chan's situation.
The correctional mother said that Luo Chan had been reborn.
This nanny was an old man who stayed with Concubine Cheng, and Wen Qingzhu trusted her very much.
After learning that Li Du would go to Fengguo Temple on the tenth day of March, Wen Qingzhu immediately sent someone to escort Luo Chan back to Beijing.
Now is the opportunity.
After leaving the palace in disguise, Wen Qingzhu went directly to the other courtyard at the foot of Lingyun Mountain.
When they arrived in the yard, a light purple figure with his back to her slowly turned around.
Her long hair, as black as a waterfall, was tied into a hanging bun popular in the south of the Yangtze River, and accompanied by a set of jade-inlaid hair and face.
Her eyebrows are dark in the distance, her pupils are in the water, her nose is exquisite, her lips are reddish-red, and she is lightly painted with pink and white. Her pure smile is charming and charming, and it stirs people's hearts.
Luo Chan saluted the car while Wen Qingzhu looked at it carefully and couldn't find anything wrong with it.
Wen Qingzhu walked over and nodded: "From today on, you are Luo Chan who came to the capital from Lingcheng to join relatives, do you know?"
Luo Chan nodded slightly, and her voice was as gentle as if it were made of water: "I understand."
Early on the tenth day of March.
Wen Qingzhu had been waiting on the mountainside for a long time. She disguised herself as an ordinary pilgrim and mingled with the crowd.
Since the plague, the incense in Fengguo Temple has become more and more prosperous.
At the foot of the mountain, Wen Qingzhu saw a graceful figure appearing from a distance.
Even though she was wearing a veil, every move she made had a soft and charming attitude about her.
Many men with some discernment couldn't help but look at Luo Chan.
Unlike Jiang Yuancheng, Wen Qingzhu prefers to make Luo Chan a woman who is both charming and pure.
Men in this world will always get the best.
After walking for less than a quarter of an hour, several people gathered around Luo Chan.
They walked and stopped, seemingly moving randomly, but in fact they were following Luo Chan's footsteps.
Seeing this scene, Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but admire.
Luo Chan is actually more suitable to be a beauty, but she feels that she can give Luo Chan another path to choose.
As we were walking, a gust of wind suddenly blew.
The still cool breeze in spring stirred up a corner of the cicadas.
The two men standing next to Luo Chan were stunned and even forgot to look away.
Luo Chan continued to move forward calmly, knowing that Wen Qingzhu was giving her a chance to choose.
Finally reaching the halfway point of the mountain, Luo Chan suddenly stopped.
She glanced at the pavilion where Wen Qingzhu was sitting.
Wen Qingzhu smiled slightly and was about to get up when he suddenly saw someone rushing towards Luo Chan from behind.
Luo Chan couldn't dodge, but a person suddenly appeared on the other side of Luo Chan, pulling Luo Chan to her side to avoid the rampaging person.
She was still in shock, and the person holding her had already let go of her hand.
Wen Qingzhu narrowed his eyes slightly. The man who saved Luo Chan looked very familiar.
She was even sure that the man was also disguised.
"Sorry, I was rude."
As soon as the man spoke, Wen Qingzhu's expression changed.
This was Zhui Feng's voice. Even if he could change his voice, how could she, Wen Qingzhu, forget this voice.
Not long after, Wu Shan actually walked over.
Wen Qingzhu, who was originally going to go there, chose to take a look temporarily.
Just when she calmed down, Zhui Feng suddenly looked over.
Wen Qingzhu held his breath and became nervous. Could Zhui Feng have discovered him
Soon, Zhui Feng came over.
He stopped outside the pavilion and asked respectfully: "Girl, I see that the girl has been resting for half an hour. The master and the girl have something to talk about. Can you give up your seat?"
