At night.
After Lu Yun returned to the palace, Liang Jing looked at him who was drunk and asked.
"how's it going?"
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Wang did intend to kill me, but it wasn't him who did it. I think it must have been someone else."
"What about your relationship with him?"
Lu Yun smiled lightly, "It's okay, we've both talked it out, Your Majesty, don't worry."
"Are you really so magnanimous?" Liang Jing frowned, feeling somewhat unconvinced.
"Shouldn't you be vindictive? I remember you weren't like this before."
Lu Yun curled his lips and explained, "Your Majesty, what nonsense are you talking about? How could I be vindictive? I have always been very generous."
"Huh, do you think I will believe it?"
…
Wait until the next day.
Lu Yun found Ye Jiajia, and she had successfully taken over the West Factory.
As for the commander of the Western Factory, it is naturally Lu Yun now.
That Wang Lei, who was nepotism, was taken away directly, and all his positions were revoked. He was even thrown into the sky prison.
Xichang Yamen.
Lu Yun looked at the group of people under his command and spoke to them coldly.
"You all know the reason why I founded the Western Factory."
"The Western Factory is to protect the people and keep an eye on these civil and military officials, not to appoint people based on personal connections!"
"The Western Factory does not belong to His Majesty. If anyone with excessive power dares to boss you around, you can report this matter to His Majesty."
"Instead of listening to what others say, like what happened in Ninglan County!"
"I'm telling you again, if anyone dares to go against the principles of the Western Factory, you must kill him!"
"Okay, now that I've said so much, you all understand the logic behind this. Go ahead and sort it out properly.
Also, I haven't been here for a while now. Have the civil and military officials done anything wrong? Have they done anything sneaky or bad? "
"And you all need to investigate thoroughly. There must not be any mistakes."
"Yes, father-in-law!"
After finishing what he needed to say, Lu Yun became worried, and Ye Jiajia beside him also sighed.
"Although the Western Factory is coming back, they didn't do their job properly when you were away. Now they can't find any clues at all. How can we investigate a master who is just a Grandmaster?"
"Besides, that Grandmaster has already been reduced to ashes. We can't even start from his body. We don't even know who he is or what his identity is."
Lu Yun frowned, suddenly remembering something. "You and I have both seen the face of that expert. Even if he were shattered to pieces, we will remember him in our minds and will not easily forget him."
"We'll find the best painters from the Western Factory, or even the entire capital, and have them draw what that person looks like."
"I think this should help us find the mastermind behind this."
"ah?"
Ye Jiajia was greatly shocked. How could this be possible?
"Okay, maybe we can give it a try then."
In this way, many painters were quickly found and portraits in different styles were painted according to their requirements. It took half a day.
After screening, Lu Yun found the one that looked the most similar.
Seeing this portrait, it feels like seeing the great master in person.
He did not dare to hesitate and quickly asked his men to find the man's identity according to the appearance in the portrait.
At the same time, in the palace.
The news that Wang Yanran was favored by His Majesty spread throughout the harem.
Even the Queen and Consort Shu knew about this.
These two people don't have any special ideas. After all, they have a reputation now, considering His Majesty's character and ability.
I'm afraid it will make them very upset, so it's better to consider the overall situation and the children.
The imperial garden of the harem.
Shangguan Feng'er found Wang Yanran and asked her curiously, "Sister Yanran, is His Majesty particularly powerful tonight?"
"Your Majesty hasn't done anything like this in a long time. He must be holding back his anger."
Wang Yanran nodded, her face flushed with shame, and she quickly explained: "Yes, Your Majesty, His Majesty is indeed very powerful. I feel that he is even stronger this time."
“I even nearly fainted several times.”
"Your Majesty, will you still blow out the candles and draw all the curtains when doing this kind of thing, as you did before?"
Wang Yanran smiled awkwardly and said helplessly, "Yeah, I don't know what your Majesty's hobby is. Anyway, it's very strange. Every time I do something like this, I even have a strange thought in my mind."
"It feels like there's another man."
Shangguan Feng'er was stunned for a moment. It is said that women have a strong sixth sense, and hers is also very strong.
She had had such an idea before, but she didn't think too much about it after having a child.
Regarding this matter... I dare not make random guesses. Who dares to doubt His Majesty?
"Alright, sister, don't overthink it. His Majesty favors you, and he really loves you."
"There are so many beauties in the harem, and His Majesty can only favor a few, and you are one of them."
"Sister Yanran, I think it won't be long before you get pregnant. Then, won't both of us sisters have children?"
"yes."
Wang Yanran nodded, feeling very happy.
The two of them had a relatively good relationship in the harem, mainly because both General Shangguan and the Prime Minister were close to each other.
"By the way, Your Majesty, haven't you gone to see Concubine Shu recently?"
Shangguan Feng'er frowned, "Why should I go see her?"
"Your Majesty, you two are still sisters after all, even though you may not be able to be at ease in this harem sometimes."
"But... now that Concubine Shu has lost her eldest brother, and General Xiao He also died for his country, it's good to show some concern."
"Besides, we can all get along peacefully. There's no need to fight to the death."
"this……"
For some reason, Shangguan Feng'er remembered what Lu Yun said that day, as if Eunuch Lu had said something similar to her.
It is also to make me... pay more attention to Concubine Shu and ease the relationship between them. They don't have that much hatred to begin with.
"Too."
"By the way, Your Majesty, I heard from some people in the harem that His Majesty seems to have been very fond of the Grandmaster expert beside Lu Gungun recently."
"Miss Ye is indeed very beautiful and very powerful. Your Majesty, don't you think she has any ideas?"
Shangguan Feng'er suddenly felt a sense of crisis. If there was another vixen around His Majesty, that would be disastrous.
The key point is that this vixen is so powerful that I can't defeat her at all...
"I see."
