Liang Jing's brows were furrowed at this time, and he probably had guessed some reasons in his mind. The reason why Master Liu said this was because he was afraid that I would trace it back to him.
"Everyone, I will investigate this matter carefully, don't worry."
However, Taifu Liu then continued, "Your Majesty, I heard that this matter is related to Prime Minister Wang's daughter, Wang Yanran. She is your Majesty's Defei."
"Why would this murderer reveal the story of Concubine De for no reason? And why did he ask Concubine De to make a special soup?"
"Your Majesty, I believe this matter is closely related to Prime Minister Wang. He must be the one behind this. He wants to poison your Majesty's most popular person to death."
"If they even dared to attack His Majesty's most influential figures, then shouldn't they attack His Majesty directly from now on? Should they do it directly in the imperial kitchen? Poison him? Your Majesty, there must be no accidents!"
"Prime Minister Wang actually dared to send his men to kill Lu Gundan's men immediately. Your Majesty is very perceptive and will bring Wang An to justice!"
Prime Minister Wang was confused at this moment. He was just standing there waiting for a discussion between them, but he couldn't tell what the result would be anyway!
I didn't expect that the crime would be put on my head all of a sudden.
What did Liu Taifu want to do? Was he trying to take this opportunity to get rid of him? He was truly despicable. He actually dared to do such a shameful thing.
How had I offended him? How shameless!
"Your Majesty, I absolutely did not do this!"
"Although I don't have a good relationship with Eunuch Lu, I won't order anyone to kill him. Moreover, this is a matter within the harem. I won't be so stupid as to let my daughter put herself in danger!"
"It's obvious that someone deliberately framed me. Moreover, this incident involving Grand Tutor Liu happened within the harem. We ministers don't know why you knew so clearly."
"Could it be that this poisoning incident is related to Imperial Tutor Liu, which is why Imperial Tutor Liu can speak so openly about it?"
Imperial Tutor Liu snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "Alas, Your Majesty still has Prime Minister Wang. Don't you know that I am a relic of the previous dynasty?"
"Because if the Grand Tutor doesn't even know this little bit of information, how can I plan and direct the troops, and how can I help His Majesty with his worries?
This matter naturally spread from the harem, so I naturally know about it."
"You, you, you..." Wang Anqing was not friendly. He thought that the person that Taifu Liu disliked the most was the one with the surname Lu, but he didn't expect that he wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of him!
How did I offend him? Is he in cahoots with Yang Zhong?
However, the Left Prime Minister Yang Zhong also said angrily at this time, "No, Liu Taifu, you can't say such nonsense. Is it appropriate to say something without any evidence?
Besides, Prime Minister Wang is a diligent and conscientious person, so he would certainly not do such a despicable thing."
"Although this Lu guy does deserve to die, he shouldn't die in such a way. Similarly, what if this happened to Your Majesty? It definitely needs a thorough investigation."
"Taifu Liu, please refrain from speaking nonsense in the court."
At this time, Taifu Liu continued to stalemate with the two of them, and instead explained to Emperor Liang Jing.
"Your Majesty, this Eunuch Lu has certainly been poisoned and is still recuperating. Therefore, the Western Factory naturally needs someone to take control, since Your Majesty is reluctant to disband it."
"Why not let the ministers in the court take charge? Do we have to keep all those grain merchants locked up forever? His Majesty promised to release them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yun walked straight forward, looked at everyone present, and then spoke to Tutor Liu.
"Master Liu, you're worrying too much. This poison is nothing to me. I've been in the martial arts world for so long, how could I be afraid of a little poison?"
"Don't worry, Master Liu, I'm fine now, there's nothing wrong with me. But Master Liu, you need to think about it carefully."
"After all, Taifu Liu is already old, but he still cares about His Majesty in the court. This is truly touching."
Taifu Liu glanced at Lu Yun beside him and asked angrily, "Why don't you let him go?"
"Your West Factory is truly lawless!"
Lu Yun curled his lips and said, "Master Liu, a man must keep his promise. I have already said that I will let them go, but you still want to bring this up here and continue to make trouble?"
"Then go ahead and release it. You haven't released it yet. What do you mean?"
"Taifu Liu, we agreed on this back then. I didn't say when to release them. Isn't it enough to just let them go? You're really speechless when you say this. Don't you understand what I'm saying?"
The old man, Tutor Liu, was also very angry. He looked at it with gritted teeth and took a deep breath.
“You you you you!”
"Well, you, Mr. Lu, you won't let me go, right? If you don't, I'll kneel here today."
Lu Yun curled his lips and said, "Taifu Liu, since you want to kneel here, then kneel down. The hall is so spacious anyway, you can kneel for as long as you want. His Majesty won't say anything. You can kneel as you like."
"Anyway, this eunuch only has one thing to say. I have almost finished interrogating those people."
"They will soon reveal the truth of the matter. Who is the real culprit behind this? And where did all the food go?
This eunuch estimates that we can get a lot of food out of them."
"Yes, this grain can fill a lot of gaps. Who asked them to do this? They are simply sending grain to our court and our treasury. What's the point of keeping such profiteers?"
"What I hated most yesterday was the collusion between officials and businessmen. Furthermore, this is a matter stipulated by the law, and Your Majesty must abide by it. What kind of trouble can these businessmen stir up?"
"Did the court ask them to do this?"
"Human greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant."
Lu Yun did not pretend to be profound. As soon as he said this, many ministers began to whisper to each other. They were all wondering whether this matter was true or false.
Is Lu Yun really about to find out the truth of this matter?
Even the tough Tutor Liu hesitated at this moment. He was very scared in his heart. Did they really find out?
If the truth is really out, then the impact on him will be huge.
Maybe he will also be affected by this. After thinking about it, I decided that this matter can't be delayed any longer.
"That's all I have to say, everyone. This eunuch is fine."
"Taifu Liu, please don't say that the person who poisoned me was Prime Minister Wang or Concubine De. This eunuch has already found out that it wasn't her, but someone who wanted me dead. Someone thought I was getting in their way."
"Master Liu, this matter has nothing to do with you, right?"
Taifu Liu snorted coldly, "What a joke, how could it have anything to do with me?"
