When night fell and everyone fell asleep, Lu Changgong and Su Sijin found a secluded place to have a heart-to-heart talk.
Su Sijin shared with Lu Changgong all the big and small things that had happened to her over the past month.
Lu Changgong acted as a listener.
Su Sijin talked a lot, and he always looked at her with affectionate eyes.
Listening to Su Sijin's vivid explanation, he felt very satisfied.
Of course, sharing is impolite if you don't reciprocate. Lu Changgong also evaded the important things he had done during his absence.
It sounded very boring and dull, but Su Sijin still listened with great interest.
"Lu Changgong, Feng Zixuan was promoted to prefect and Liu Zhen resigned and committed suicide out of fear of punishment. Was it you who did it?" Logically speaking, even if the position of prefect was to be taken over by a local county magistrate, it would not be the turn of the Ningdu County Magistrate.
Besides, is Liu Zhen the kind of person who would commit suicide out of fear of punishment?
A confession of guilt?
To put it bluntly, a letter of confession is meant for people outside to hear.
If people outside need something to say, just give it to them.
Lu Changgong shook his head, "It's not me, it's the Third Prince Sima Chengqi."
"Huang Zichu?" Compared to Sima Chengqi, Su Sijin prefers to call him Huang Zichu.
After all, the name Huang Zichu has been with them day and night for several months.
Lu Changgong raised his eyebrows in understanding, "My Ah Jin, you really know that Huang Zichu is Sima Chengqi."
Su Sijin shrugged confidently, "You guys have already shown it clearly enough."
Su Sijin made up a perfunctory excuse to fool Lu Changgong. She couldn't tell her that she knew the truth from the book!
As introduced in the book, Sima Chengqi's nickname outside was Huang Zichu.
Lu Changgong knew she wasn't telling the whole truth, but he was determined to investigate. He continued, "Lingnan is the Third Prince's fiefdom. It would be easy to clean up a corrupt official who only knows how to exploit the people."
"He has the right to transfer local officials if he wants to, and he doesn't need to report to the court. Since Emperor Yuande has granted Lingnan to the Third Prince, the final say in Lingnan lies with the Third Prince, not the Imperial Palace."
Su Sijin adjusted her eyes slightly, "Is it possible to do this?" So this is the meaning of fiefdom!
No wonder those princes were not satisfied with having two fiefs and had to rebel to fight for the dominance of the world.
"I provided Liu Zhen's crimes to the Third Prince." Anyone who violated the law in Lingnan, big or small, was turned upside down.
Speaking of Liu Zhen, Su Sijin's eyes suddenly became sharp and frosty.
"So you've been dealing with this matter while you've been away?"
Lu Changgong picked up Su Sijin's hand, wrapped it in his palm, rubbed her hands to keep them warm, and shook his head: "Not entirely, I'm dealing with Jingyun Pavilion, and he's dealing with Jinyu Pavilion."
Su Sijin was startled and looked up at Lu Changgong, "What happened to Jingyun Pavilion and Jinyu Pavilion?"
Lu Changgong gently patted the back of her hand to comfort her, and then told her the story of the Jingyun Pavilion and the Jinyu Pavilion.
"What?" Su Sijin jumped up in anger. Lu Changgong stood up and stopped the man.
But because Su Sijin was too angry, she was full of disbelief.
"Jingyun Pavilion was actually sealed? Everyone inside was executed by the imperial court? How dare they do that?"
When Su Sijin was angry, her right hand unconsciously hit Lu Changlonggong's right shoulder.
Faced with the sudden "attack", Lu Changgong couldn't help but cry out in pain, but Su Sijin, who was in anger, didn't notice.
Lu Changgong's face was pale. He hugged her in his arms and held Su Sijin's head to prevent her from noticing his abnormality.
"Ajin, the revenge for Jingyun Pavilion must be avenged. Not only Jingyun Pavilion, but also the Third Prince's Jinyu Pavilion."
"The Third Prince and I left one after another to deal with the affairs of the two pavilions. Since you dare to provoke Jingyun Pavilion and Jinyu Pavilion, be prepared to endure their wrath and retaliation!"
When Su Sijin wasn't looking, Lu Changgong showed a bloodthirsty look.
When Su Sijin heard this, she felt that Lu Changgong seemed different. She wanted to take a look, but her head was held tightly by Lu Changgong.
Without waiting for her to attack, Lu Changgong continued, "Fortunately, the Golden Feather Pavilion is deserted, with only a few casualties. I think the Third Prince is preparing a counterattack, ready for a head-on confrontation with the imperial court and the palace."
Su Sijin sneered, withdrew from Lu Changgong's arms, looked into Lu Changgong's eyes, and said in an extremely serious tone,
"That's how it should be. Before, you and the imperial court were clearly divided. If no one offends me, I won't offend anyone. Now you've bullied us to the point of destroying our base, and you're still forbearing to suffer this huge loss. I will look down on you."
According to the book, Jingyun Pavilion and Jinyu Pavilion are quite famous in the martial arts world, and are highly respected by people, especially those in the martial arts world.
Jingyun Pavilion had its base destroyed and was also slandered and attacked. This was really inappropriate and too unbelievable.
Could it be that a traitor really led the way and leaked the secret?
As Feng Qiongshi is a reborn person, is it possible that her 'prophecy' has ended two cabinets?
Does she know the people behind the two cabinets?
"Ajin, we won't let this go so easily. The two cabinets no longer adhere to the original rules and regulations. They will definitely launch a counterattack against the court and the people in the palace."
Lu Changgong pursed his lips, his eyes full of murderous intent.
Only when he met Su Sijin's surprised gaze did he suppress the murderous intent in his eyes.
Su Sijin moved closer to Lu Changgong and rested her head against his chest. Listening to the steady and strong heartbeat, Su Sijin raised her head and said, "Lu Changgong, just go ahead and do it! I have Meijiang Village, and I have my mother and my younger siblings."
"You know I've had some adventures, and I can help you with most of them. My things can only be realized by putting them to use."
