Chapter 98 What do you mean by understanding the warhorse's speech? This is bullshit!

Lu Changqing's heart was pounding.

I have to say, this proposal is very attractive.

Isn't this the path to becoming the Prime Minister that Qianjizi mentioned? As long as he gets on board the Yang family, when the tenth prince ascends the throne in the future, he will be the regent and dominate the world, which will be a natural thing.

"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your high regard for me. I will do my best to serve you until my death!"

"Hurry up!" Yang Shijun helped him up cheerfully and said, "Master Lu, thank you for your courtesy. The Queen has some free time these days and said she wants Miss Xu to come to the palace to talk to her."

Lu Changqing sighed and said, "Last time during the Silkworm Ceremony, it was Miao Yan and I who harmed the Empress. Now Miao Yan regrets it so much that her intestines are turning green. How dare she appear in front of the Empress again and make her unhappy?"

"It's not entirely your and Xu's fault. Lord Lu and Xu were both young and full of vigor. It was normal for them to get caught up in love affairs and lose their sense of proportion and get pregnant. The Queen and I thought about it later and let it go. We didn't blame you." Yang Shijun said, "I wonder when Miss Xu will give birth?"

Lu Changqing shook his head and said, "It's a pity that Miao Yan had a miscarriage when she came back from the silkworm ceremony last time. She couldn't keep the baby."

"What a pity. Xu is very spiritual and can make incense. The Queen thinks she can still be useful." Yang Shijun said.

"The Queen really doesn't blame Miao Yan anymore?" Lu Changqing was overjoyed.

Last time, because of his and Xu Miaoyan's mistake, Queen Yang was placed under house arrest by His Majesty. He remembered that the way Queen Yang looked at them was as if she were looking at street rats.

"Her Majesty is magnanimous, how could she be so lenient with a little girl? It was the Queen who asked me to come and look for you today." Yang Shijun consoled her, "When Xu's health gets better, let her come to the palace to talk to the Queen."

"Yes! Your humble subject obeys your order," Lu Changqing bowed hastily, "Your humble subject would like to thank the Queen on behalf of Miao Yan!"

The fact that the Queen Mother did not blame Miao Yan meant that the spiritual energy in Miao Yan was still useful to the Yang family. As long as they could find a way to push the Tenth Prince to the position of crown prince, future wealth and power would be within their reach.

At dusk, at Fang Mansion.

Yan Fenghua walked in hurriedly, and was stunned when he saw Qilin taking a nap in the yard. A chill ran up from the soles of his feet.

"Master Yan." Cui Shuang bowed at the door and said, "Master Yan, you are here so late, can you have dinner?"

"I have something urgent to discuss with you, sir." Yan Fenghua pointed at Qilin, "Why is this guy here?!"

"Master Yan, don't you know? Our master invited Qilin back from the palace to guard the house." Cui Shuang smiled and said, "Don't worry, Qilin is gentle and won't bite anyone."

"Okay." Yan Fenghua finally put his heart at ease, "Go in and pass the message."

Cui Shuang entered the room and announced something, then raised the curtain and led Yan Fenghua into the room: "Sir, Sir Yan is here."

"Brother Yan!" Fang Qianxue called out happily, "It's a pity that my ankle is injured and I can't get up to greet you."

"It's okay, I have something to talk to you about." Yan Fenghua winked at Fang Qianxue.

Fang Qianxue understood and sent the maid away, then asked, "Why are you here at this hour?"

It was already dark, and Yan Fenghua, a man, shouldn't visit her at this time.

"It's urgent." Yan Fenghua took out a letter from his sleeve and spread it on the table. "This is the last letter left by the teacher before he died. I asked someone to check it. Although this letter is very similar to the teacher's handwriting, there are still slight differences. I think it must have been forged by someone."

Fang Qianxue had predicted this result long ago.

She believed in her grandfather's character. Since Fang Jue said that the Fang family had never been involved in any treason, her grandfather's letter of repentance must have been forged.

"In that case, can we overturn the case for the Fang family based on this evidence?" Fang Qianxue asked.

Yan Fenghua frowned and shook his head slowly, saying, "It's hard to overturn the case for the Fang family based on this letter alone, and the emperor won't be convinced. Unless we find the person who forged the letter and get his confession, but I guess... that person should have been silenced a long time ago, so we can only try to find him."

"Brother Yan, who do you think wrote this letter of repentance?" Fang Qianxue asked.

Yan Fenghua pondered and said, "The person who forged this letter of repentance must be very familiar with the teacher's handwriting. He must be one of his students, and he was able to obtain the teacher's handwritten letter for copying."

Fang Qianxue suddenly remembered something: "When Prince Yong had just had an accident, Lu Changqing was looking for something in my room. I asked him what he was looking for, and he said he wanted to borrow a handwritten letter from my grandfather, saying that he liked my grandfather's calligraphy and wanted to copy it."

"Can you find that letter?" Yan Fenghua's eyes lit up. "As long as we can prove that this letter of repentance was copied from that letter, it will be somewhat convincing."

Fang Qianxue shook her head and said, "It's all my fault that I didn't have enough vigilance at the beginning. I let Lu Changqing borrow my grandfather's handwritten letter, and he never returned it to me. Later, when I asked him about it, he just said that he accidentally lost it. I never thought he would do such a cruel thing. My grandfather personally taught him for many years, but he framed our Fang family. He is worse than pigs and dogs!"

"For now, there is only one solution." Yan Fenghua said, "If the Fang family's case was deliberately framed by someone, then Prince Yong's rebellion must be a fabrication. In other words, Lu Changli's exposure of Prince Yong's rebellion was a frame-up. As long as Prince Yong's case can be overturned, the Fang family will naturally be acquitted."

Fang Qianxue frowned and said, "Prince Yong's rebellion happened in Jiangning. It's hard for us to find out anything. Besides, everyone in Prince Yong's mansion is dead. Who else can speak for Grandfather?"

"We will split into two groups. You try to find the teacher's handwritten letter. I will send someone to Jiangning to check." Yan Fenghua said and stood up to say goodbye. "It's getting late. I'll take my leave first."

"I'll take you out." Fang Qianxue realized her foot was injured just as she finished speaking. She smiled awkwardly and said, "I can't take you out."

"How did you hurt your foot? Is it serious?" Yan Fenghua squatted down and was about to take off her shoes and socks to check her wound.

"I accidentally sprained my ankle in the back hills of the Imperial Garden last time. It's nothing serious. You don't have to come to see me." Fang Qianxue hurriedly refused.

"Did you call a doctor?"

"Yes, the doctor said it's fine and he will be fine in a few days." Fang Qianxue said, "Don't worry."

"Then I'm leaving," Yan Fenghua stood up, walked to the door and turned back, "I remember that when Lu Changli exposed Prince Yong's rebellion, it seemed that he got help from that female official who was close to the silkworms. She said that the woman understood what the war horses were saying, which proved that Prince Yong's mansion had purchased a large number of war horses in the past six months. That's why Your Majesty suspected that Prince Yong had the intention of rebellion. What do you mean by understanding what the war horses were saying? That's bullshit!"
