Jiang stared at her and suddenly screamed hysterically: "Lu Yanluo! Do you think that if you help that bitch Lin today, she will sincerely treat you as an ally? I tell you, she has been stealing your majesty for more than 20 years and is the most favored in the harem. You can't deal with her at all! You will lose, you will definitely lose completely!"
Her voice became increasingly distant and smaller.
After being dragged out of the banquet, perhaps he was knocked unconscious by the guards, and his voice suddenly stopped.
A chill flashed through Lu Yanluo's heart.
[Even the Queen is so careless in deposing and enthroning, what will be my fate? ]
[It is still necessary to cure Yan Xiwan's heart disease as soon as possible, divorce Chu Xuan as soon as possible, and stay away from the royal family, which is a place of trouble! ]
Chu Xuan felt his heart was choking with anxiety, and he subconsciously called out, "A Luo..."
Lu Yanluo ignored him and walked up to Yan Xiwan without saying a word. She held her wrist and began to take her pulse.
After a while, he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, the hypocrisy between you and me will soon be over."
Chu Xuan felt a pang of pain in his heart, and naturally knew what she meant.
It seems that Yan Xiwan's heart disease is no longer a problem...
Is she leaving?
The Empress Dowager’s birthday banquet lasted until the evening.
Just as Lu Yanluo was about to return home, she was stopped by Concubine Lin: "Princess Ye, you are so smart."
"I dare not." Lu Yanluo bowed calmly, "But your Majesty, you can rest assured. All I want is to stay away from the royal family."
Concubine Lin sneered: "I don't believe it."
Lu Yanluo didn't say anything else, but just blinked, and no one could tell what she meant.
"Princess Ye is a smart person, she should know what I mean." Concubine Lin sneered, "You also know that I have some connections in the Western Regions, and I can also know some news outside the palace--"
She paused and stuffed a purse into Lu Yanluo's hand.
"You reported Jiang's conspiracy and saved my life, so I naturally have to give you something in return. I'll look at the contents of your purse when we get back home."
Lu Yanluo bowed, put away her purse, and then left.
Returning to the palace, Yunyayuan, Lu Yanluo burned the note in her purse. Strangely, there were only a few words on the note - murderer Lin Qisheng.
Lin Qisheng is from the Lin family, which is the most powerful family in the current court. Concubine Lin is the legitimate daughter of the current head of the Lin family. She entered the palace at a young age and has great power over all six harems.
The Prime Minister's wife, Mrs. Lin, is also the concubine's daughter of the head of the Lin family. Although the concubine's status is low, she is still a daughter of the Lin family after all.
In the original owner's memory, this Lin Qisheng seemed to be a relative of the Lin family's maternal family. He was not of noble status and just got by with a perfunctory job as a teacher in Beijing.
What does “murderer Lin Qisheng” mean?
Lu Yanluo couldn't think of the reason, so she simply stopped thinking about it and hugged Chu Yuan. "Yuanyuan! How was your fun at home today?"
"It's not fun!" Chu Yuan shook his head in grievance. "My brother spends all day reciting books and studying. He spends almost all his time in the school. When he returns to Yunya Garden, he spends the whole day pestering the teacher. He is such a fuss! He doesn't even play with Yuanyuan!"
Lu Yanluo couldn't help laughing: "Yaoyao is so hardworking, he has a bit of the spirit of your mother when she was preparing for the college entrance examination! She was really strong and powerful!"
Chu Yuan didn't understand a word and waved her hands around. Lu Yanluo was grabbing her when suddenly the door opened and Shen He came in in a hurry.
"Princess! Please go and see the prince!"
Lu Yanluo blinked her eyes. In TV dramas, aren't the female supporting characters pretending to be sick to trick the prince into visiting them? Why is it the other way around in her case?
He coughed lightly and asked, "What's the matter?"
Shen He organized his words and said anxiously, "Just a few hours ago, Ye Sheng, a spy who had been lurking in the enemy country for many years, brought back intelligence, but before he could present it, he was assassinated that day and his body was thrown at the city gate. The assassin was very arrogant, and Ye Sheng's men also came back and were killed one after another, some dead and some disabled. As a result, rumors are spreading in the capital, and people are in a panic."
Lu Yanluo blinked again, "This is indeed very exciting, but what does it have to do with me and the prince?"
"Princess, please listen to me!" Shen He interrupted her anxiously, his facial features twisted together, "When the news reached the palace, His Majesty and the Queen Mother were furious and wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly, but the Ministry of Justice has not found any clues so far. The Queen Mother was worried that the information would be intercepted by someone with ulterior motives, so she not only persuaded His Majesty to offer a large reward, but also decided to offer the Shadow Order as a threat, threatening: whoever finds out the murderer and the information will get the Shadow Order!"
Shen He paused, then continued: "The Shadow Order is what the prince has been waiting for for so many years. The prince will definitely intervene in this case!"
