Prime Minister Li remained silent for a long time.
Chu Shengan didn't care. He waved his hand and said, "Back off."
Prime Minister Li hurriedly bowed and took his leave.
After he left, Chu Shengan sighed lightly.
"Prime Minister Lu is much more useful than him, but it's a pity..."
His words were vague.
"Forget it, let's use it for now. Send someone to Hongcheng."
As he said this, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
Chu Shengan didn't care at all.
"By the way, remember to prepare some people for the Empress Dowager's side as well."
"The Empress Dowager is old and cannot stand being frightened."
The black shadow knelt below, responded with a sound, and disappeared again.
Wait until he leaves.
Chu Shengan then called people in.
The eunuch handed the prepared tea to Chu Shengan.
"His Majesty."
Chu Shengan held his forehead with his hands, his voice a little vague.
"Do you think the Empress Dowager will know where the Imperial Seal went?"
The jade seal almost became a thorn in Chu Shengan's heart.
Even if you find someone to secretly copy one, it will not be indistinguishable from the real thing.
Therefore, Chu Shengan rarely let the eunuch read the imperial edict.
Instead, most of them are oral instructions.
The chief eunuch stood aside, not daring to speak.
The more you talk, the more mistakes you make, especially when Chu Shengan is like this.
If he gets carried away today and flatters the wrong person, his head will be split apart.
Chu Shengan slowly opened his eyes.
"Forget it. Chu Jinshen can't stir up any trouble."
Chu Shengan felt that his arrangements were appropriate. After Wu Quan took action, he, Chu Shengan, and the Xuanjia soldiers would stay there with Yuezhou.
No one will ever covet his throne again.
Chu Shengan stood up.
The eunuch hurried to follow.
He walked out of the study and stood in the yard.
Bai Qinghan’s words kept echoing in my mind.
"Do you really think you can rest easy on your throne?"
He didn't believe it at first.
Chu Jinshen is the most threatening among all the princes.
However, Chu Jin deeply displeased the old emperor because of the Yuezhou incident.
Plus it was reasonable and well-founded at the time.
Chu Jinshen is inhumane.
Chu Shengan took this opportunity to win over a lot of people.
At that time, he was full of vigor and felt that the world was in his hands.
Unexpectedly, the appearance of Bai Qinghan completely broke his delusion.
"Your good father has even drafted the imperial edict."
Bai Qinghan told everyone where the imperial edict was hidden.
Chu Shengan didn't believe it at first, but he took the opportunity to take a look.
I was stunned immediately.
There really is an imperial edict here.
The above content made Chu Shengan's eyes bloodshot.
He didn't expect that even though Chu Jinshen was in this state, the old emperor would still pass the throne to him.
Bai Qinghan also appeared at the right time.
"Your Highness, if you cooperate with me, the throne... will be within your reach."
Chu Shengan clenched his hands into fists.
He suppressed his anger and carefully put the imperial edict back.
It was also at that time that Chu Sheng'an began to regard Chu Jin as a thorn in his side.
"Forget it, just keep an eye on Concubine Bai."
The chief eunuch stood behind him.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Lanzhou, full city.
The sound of horse-drawn carriages was heard as they drove along the official road.
There are not many people around.
Lu Anan opened the curtains and looked outside.
"The whole city is still under martial law."
Chu Jinshen paused.
"The Hongcheng incident involves too many things. To be on the safe side, I haven't left the city for nearly a month."
Even if you leave the city, you must get to the bottom of it.
Not to mention those who go into the city.
You must take out the pass. You must have never been to Hongcheng and must not pass through Hongcheng.
However, Lu Anan and others don’t care so much.
When they were about to go to Hongcheng suddenly, the Lord of Lanzhou tried to persuade them.
Lu Anan introduced the miracle doctor and used his name, but it was much more convenient.
The Lord of Lanzhou did not stop him.
The garrison troops guarding outside the city gate frowned.
He led his men to the carriage.
"Where are you from?"
Li Si stuck his head out and took out the token in his hand.
The token symbolizes the identity of the Lord of Lanzhou.
The garrison quickly made way.
"Please, sir."
He obviously misunderstood something.
However, Li Si did not argue, but just asked the driver beside him to pull the reins.
The carriage started moving again.
Lu Anan and Chu Jinshen did not show up.
"It seems that Lord Lanzhou has done a good job."
The Lord of Lanzhou is a rare good official.
After he came to Lanzhou, the lives of the people in Lanzhou improved a lot.
Plus he has a good vision.
They took advantage of Lanzhou's specialties and sold them to passing merchants, who made a lot of money.
With money on hand, life will naturally be much easier.
The people of Lanzhou have a lot of faith in this Lord.
By the time the carriage arrived at Mancheng Prefecture, the Lord of Lanzhou had already received the news.
He and Butler Zhou waited outside the mansion.
"Your Highness."
The Lord of Lanzhou didn't care at all, as there were many families around.
He just bowed like that.
This caught the attention of many people, which was a bit frightening.
The weather in Lanzhou is about to change.
Chu Jinshen got off the carriage first, turned around and stretched out his hand.
Lu Anan used his hand to land safely from the carriage.
"Your Highness, please come in."
The Lord of Lanzhou stood behind the two of them.
Chu Jinshen and Lu Anan walked in together.
Lu Anan didn't speak until the door behind her closed.
"My Lord, you must have known this already."
Lord Lanzhou nodded.
"I have already sent people to the Xu family to take them under guard."
Lu Anan paused: "Did the Xu family say anything?"
The Lord of Lanzhou was stunned. This matter was handled by Butler Zhou.
Butler Zhou stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, when I led my men over, Mr. Xu didn't say anything."
"It's Madam Xu..."
Butler Zhou paused, "He's making such a fuss, he keeps shouting that Xu Hesheng is innocent."
Lu Anan sneered, "It seems the Xu family hasn't learned enough of their lesson."
He is innocent, how can he be innocent?
The most innocent people here should be the shopkeeper and his daughter.
Besides, it is impossible that Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xu were completely unaware of Xu Hesheng's actions.
Especially since it also consumed an inn.
Adding the amount of money spent, it is countless.
Mr. Xu must be aware that such a large account is going to be used.
"In the back mountain..."
Lu Anan wanted to ask about her grandfather's grave, but Butler Zhou looked hesitant.
"this..."
"What's wrong?"
"I've been there, but the mountain behind it has been deserted for a long time."
Lu Anan was stunned.
Xu Hesheng said that the mountain behind was where the Xu family's ancestral tomb was located.
How could it become so deserted?
"I sent someone to ask, but Mr. Xu would rather die than tell me where he is."
Butler Zhou didn't know how to mention it, so he could only talk about it vaguely.
Lu Anan raised the corners of his lips, his face expression cold.
"You won't tell me? That means it doesn't hurt enough."
Only when the beating hurt and scared him did he know to explain everything in detail.
Lu Anan turned around and said, "Now that this matter is over, we should bring back grandfather's remains as soon as possible."
