If he said anything more extreme, he would even backfire and make the Queen Mother dissatisfied with him.
Seeing Lu Changxin lost in thought, Shen Yan quickly said, "Since we can't figure it out ourselves, why don't we find someone who can help us figure it out."
Under Lu Changxin's puzzled gaze, Shen Yan sent someone to call Lu Wan to the study, without even giving Lu Changxin a word of explanation.
As for going to the study room in the main courtyard, Lu Wan now acted as if she was going to her own study room. However, when she came here and heard the two of them explain why they asked her to come, she couldn't help but widen her eyes and looked at Chen Yan in shock, "Why do you ask me to come here when you and my brother can't solve the problem?"
Why does Song Ping want to associate with those useless young men? I am not a worm in his stomach, so how could I know?
Not only Lu Jinxi himself, but even Lu Changxin felt that Shen Yan's behavior was really outrageous.
After Lu Wan finished speaking, he said, "Yes, Your Majesty, although Lu Wan is now an official in the court like a man, she is a girl after all. It is really not appropriate for her to be involved in such a matter. Moreover, this matter is too dangerous. Song Ping is a lunatic. If he knew that Lu Wan was a woman, who knows what crazy actions he would take."
What Lu Changxin didn't know was that Song Ping had already known that Lu Wan was a girl, and had even come to provoke her again and again.
After he finished speaking, Lu Wan couldn't help but frown. What happened to the woman? Isn’t the Queen Mother Song, who holds power in the world today, a woman? Moreover, the previous dynasty had an internal minister who, as a woman, could still discuss state affairs.
How does the saying go, who says women are inferior to men?
"I won't put Lu Wan in danger."
Without waiting for Lu Wan to express his thoughts, Shen Yan spoke calmly.
It was a statement, but it was more like a promise.
He looked at Lu Changxin with an extremely firm expression, "Even if something happens to me, I won't let them hurt Lu Wan in the slightest."
Lu Changxin still refused to give in, "But what if this is what the Queen Mother wants? She is capable of secretly buying and selling official positions. Compared with those, this is just a small matter."
Listening to their conversation, Lu Wan couldn't help but frown.
Isn’t it about Song Ping? How is it related to the Queen Mother again?
Seeing that the two people were still arguing, Lu Wanwan made a pause gesture between them and then asked, "What exactly did you want me to do?"
Naturally, Lu Changxin didn't want to say much, but before he could open his mouth, Shen Yan told Lu Wan all the causes and consequences of the matter, including the fact that the earthquake-stricken grain had been stolen.
"Your brother said that you are a girl, so he doesn't let you get involved in these things, but I always think that you are the most special one, even better than us men at certain times."
Shen Yan looked at Lu Wan with a look of great trust.
Being looked at by him with such eyes, Lu Wan felt guilty for no reason. She never knew that she was such a person in Shen Yan's heart.
It's not that it's bad, but it's too good. She feels that she doesn't deserve such an evaluation.
Lu Wan subconsciously turned his head and glanced at his elder brother.
Lu Changxin paused, nodded and said, "Since the prince has told you about this matter, and you are already here, then tell me what you think."
Seeing that both of them were looking at him so eagerly, Lu Wan did not hesitate any longer. He first carefully analyzed the cause and effect of the matter, and then spoke,
"I think Song Ping had long anticipated that he would arouse other people's suspicion, so he deliberately created suspicion and had too close contact with those people."
Lu Changxin frowned, "You mean, he had expected that we would doubt him like this?"
Not only that, even Chen Yan felt that this answer was somewhat untrue.
"Although Song Ping has some abilities, he is not so calculating as this."
Lu Wan knew that if he said this, these two people would definitely not believe it, so he was not angry. He just said calmly, "Never underestimate your enemies, or you will suffer a great loss."
After she said this, Shen Yan and the other fell into silence.
After a pause, Lu Changxin nodded to Lu Wan, "You are right. No matter whether Song Ping is really as we guessed, we can never put him in the perspective of a weak person, especially in today's incident."
The victims haven't had a proper meal for almost half a month. If they delay any further, they will surely starve to death.
In order to avoid such a sad situation, it is better to solve this problem as soon as possible.
"So according to you, what should we do?"
This time, Lu Changxin did not look at Shen Yan, but went directly to ask what Lu Wan meant.
For the first time, Lu Wan felt that he had shouldered such a heavy responsibility.
"It's better to take advantage of the situation."
Lu Wan was silent for a moment and thought about it, then he said, "Since the most important thing now is to solve the problem of disaster relief grain, we don't have that much time to waste with Song Ping and the others."
If this is the case, the problem can naturally be solved, but it will be a good thing for Song Ping and others.
After hearing this, Lu Changxin did not answer immediately, but glanced at Shen Yan.
It would be good to solve the problem of food and clothing for the disaster victims, but by doing so, we would lose a good opportunity to defeat the Queen Mother's Party.
What lies before them now is not the issue of disaster relief grain, but a choice between the power of the court and the lives of tens of thousands of ordinary people, and this decision needs to be finalized by Shen Yan.
