Jin Yue and other girls naturally didn't know that when Luo Yunhuan was helping to pick up the files, she saw a list of people to be interrogated. The first name on the list was a name she had never heard of, and the second one was Yue Zihan.

She only knew "Brother Zi Han", she didn't know who "Yue Zi Han" was. But, but... How could there be such a coincidence in the world? Is Brother Zi Han the Yue Zi Han, is he guilty of a heinous crime, is her brother-in-law going to kill him... Luo Yunhuan quietly returned to her room, lying on the table, feeling extremely sad.

She started to grow up, and she had her own worries. She couldn't tell anyone, and could only lick her wounds silently when she was alone.

When the maid Lingxi realized that she hadn't heard the young lady's lively laughter for a while, she came in to check and found that the young lady had caught a cold and her forehead was extremely hot. Lingxi was panicked. She was always timid and had no idea. When the young lady fell ill, the first person she thought of was the girl Luo Lingyu.

Luo Lingyu was originally with Madam Lu and the newly married second young master's wife. It was quite interesting to hear the women competing for gifts. When she learned that her sister was ill, Luo Lingyu took the doctor to visit her. While the doctor was examining the young lady in the inner house, Luo Lingyu sat in the outer house, asking the maids about the cause of her sister's illness while taking the silk paper that Lingxi handed over tremblingly.

"I took it from the desk. It was written by the young lady."

Luo Lingyu lowered her eyes, her eyelids twitched slightly, and she saw the words written on the paper: Yue Zihan.

After the doctor came out, Luo Lingyu went into the inner room to accompany her sister for a while. She held her sister, who was fainting from fever, in her arms, touched her sister's forehead, lowered her head and asked: "Huan'er, who is 'Yue Zihan'? What did your brother-in-law do to you?"

The maids said that Luo Yunhuan fell ill after returning from Lu Yun's place. There might be some reason behind this.

Luo Yunhuan, who was unconscious, was mumbling something, but Luo Lingyu couldn't hear clearly, so she had to give up. She told the maids to take good care of her sister, and took away the note with the name "Yue Zihan". It's not that she had to blame Lu Yun, thinking that Lu Yun would bully her sister. With Lu Sanlang's love for her sister, I'm afraid he would scold her and wouldn't say a word against Huan'er... Luo Lingyu felt a little sour.

However, Lu Saburo was working in the government office during the day and was not at home, so he should not have run into his sister.

Luo Lingyu returned to her bedroom. The courtyard was quiet. The maid Jinyue stood in the corridor and winked at her. She put her finger to her lips and made a "hmm" sound, then pointed inside the bamboo curtain. Luo Lingyu pursed her lips and something moved in her heart.

The night was dark, and the lanterns in the corridor were swaying in the rain. Luo Lingyu entered the house, opened the pearl necklace and walked inside. As expected, she saw a young man lying on the couch. He was still wearing his scarlet court robes. Even when he was free to lie on the couch and fall asleep, his red robe was dignified and tied with a brocade belt. The brocade clothes and gorgeous clothes made the young man look lonely and indifferent.

The scroll was spread out over her face, her black hair was disheveled, and her fingers resting on the book were slender and strong, with a color as warm as jade.

Luo Lingyu felt the dampness of rain on the corner of his clothes and paused. When she leaned over to take off his coat, she smelled a faint smell of alcohol on him. She took away the book covering his face and saw the fatigue on his face. She felt sorry for him. He still had his eyes closed, and the corners of his eyes were dark. It was obvious that he didn't know his wife had returned.

Luo Lingyu sat on the couch, staring at Lu Yun's sleeping face in a trance. The maid hesitated and whispered outside: "My lady, my master told us to prepare a bath. The hot water is ready now."

Luo Lingyu: "He's already asleep, how can I wash him? Let's talk about it tomorrow."

Maid: "...But isn't the lady still here? My dear, it's not good for you to sleep like this after drinking."

Luo Lingyu: “…”

She was still thinking about asking Lu Yun who "Yue Zi Han" was. Did the maid mean to ask her to help Lu Yun bathe? This, this, this... is not good? !

Chapter 144

The heavy rain enveloped the world, and the night was dark. The gurgling sound of the stream under the eaves was clear and pleasant, making people feel relaxed. On the deserted streets, the carriage belonging to the Chen Palace was moving slowly. The red lantern hanging on the front of the carriage swayed gently in the wind and rain, and the red light shone on the sparkling water puddles on the ground.

In the car, the young and beautiful Chen Wang closed his eyes. He sat upright, but in his mind he was calculating the causes and consequences of everything that was happening. For example -

Will his father definitely look for a scapegoat?

Even though it wasn't Liu Mu who was forced to death, he still didn't get any benefits.

Due to different political philosophies and different expectations for the future situation of the South, will the conflicts between him, his father, and his brothers remain dormant or erupt?

The imperial power has never been at its peak, but neither have the aristocratic families. If a power from a humble family is put into the conflict between the two, the three forces will be able to form a stable situation.

Liu Chu asked himself: If I don't fight for that position, will I die? If I don't fight for that position, will my political ambitions never be realized? Is Lu Saburo's expectation of me an inevitable result?

The South is so rich, yet so corrupt. The fire is boiling, the flowers are blooming. In just one year, the South has experienced how the North is eyeing it covetously. Even now, due to the rebellion of King Zhao, this problem has not been solved.

If there is no heir to the throne who can turn the tide, the future of the Southern Kingdom may be even more precarious. If the country cannot be saved, how can personal grudges be resolved? And among his brothers... who has the ability to do this?

Most of them only want to enjoy the privileges of an emperor, but are unwilling to endure the hardships of an emperor.

Liu Chu's eyelashes fluttered slightly as he closed his eyes. He kept asking - what about me? I didn't want to fight for the position before because I wanted to protect myself and I didn't want to waste so much energy. Now that I have the advantage, can I stand up?

In agony, Chen Wang Liu Chu kept asking himself questions in the car on a rainy night. He asked questions one by one, and the answers were clear in his mind. He was a very decisive person, and the clearer he understood, the more determined he became.

The more I understand, the more I understand the inevitability of what Lu Yun did.

…

On a rainy night, Prince Chen drove to Lu's house to find Lu Sanlang for a night talk. In Lu Sanlang's "Qingyuan", the Third Young Lady, with the help of the maids and servants, forced Lu Yun to bathe in a wooden barrel in the ear room. Lu Sanlang was sweating profusely, but he didn't wake up because he had drunk alcohol.
