Chapter 25 The little princess is simply a blessing!

Jiang Yanchuan directly called the two of them in.

Facing a group of people's mixed gazes, Jiang Yingcheng looked listless. Even when he walked up to Jiang Yanchuan, he just managed to pull up the corner of his lips and called him weakly.

Like a cat's meow.

Jiang Yanchuan chuckled and didn't care. He lifted her up and carried her to the soft chair that had been prepared long ago, and pushed the pastries in her direction.

Several smart ministers looked at each other and made plans in their minds.

This is where officials of the second rank and above continue to discuss matters with Emperor Mingze after all other officials have left the court. Not to mention how solemn and dignified it is, at least Emperor Mingze has never eaten even a single snack here.

It seems that this little princess, who has suddenly become favored, has a very special status.

In fact, even if we ignore this matter, we can get a glimpse of it from the fact that Emperor Mingze came here specifically to discuss with them the selection of the little princess's tutor.

Jiang Yanchuan glanced solemnly at Jiang Yingcheng who was mechanically stuffing dessert into his mouth.

He originally intended to listen to the judgment of that "Brother Tong" on these important officials in the court, but the young man seemed to have been hit too hard, and now the question that kept turning over in his mind was how to make him discover the true identity of that old man.

He waited for a long time but the young man didn't come to his senses, so he had to wave his hand and signaled the ministers to go back.

After the ministers left, Jinyiwei commander Lu Yao was summoned into the palace again.

As soon as he entered the hall, his attention was attracted by Jiang Yingcheng who was sitting next to Emperor Mingze. He almost forgot to salute Emperor Mingze and lost his manners in front of the hall.

But it's not his fault.

He was also one of the people who were diagnosed as "sick" by the little princess on the road just now.

He had never heard of being able to hear other people's thoughts in his decades of life, but now it was actually happening to him, and the whole world seemed to become magical in an instant.

Lu Yao bravely glanced at the young emperor behind the table.

Before entering the door, the eunuch at the door had given him many instructions, telling him to act according to the circumstances after entering.

He took a breath with a toothache.

Since you wanted to remind him to act according to circumstances, why couldn't you just say more directly?

He doesn't know what to do now!

Jiang Yanchuan took in all of Lu Yao's reactions. Seeing that he had finally gotten over his surprise, he spoke, "How's the progress of the investigation into Weng Zizhen that I asked you to investigate?"

Lu Yao: “…”

His heartbeat, which had just calmed down, soared to the highest point again.

Didn't I ask him to investigate the affairs of the court ministers in their inner chambers yesterday?

When did he receive the task of investigating the top scholar?

Lu Yao was just hesitating about how to start the conversation when a baby voice that was obviously filled with surprise suddenly rang in his ears.

[Ahhhh, has Father discovered that the old man is really the second prince of Northern Frontier in disguise? ]

Lu Yao: “…”

Lu Yao: “??!!!”

What?

Is Weng Zi really the second prince of Northern Frontier in disguise? ?

For a moment he was a little confused, whether he was more shocked by the fact that he could hear the little princess's inner voice, or by the fact that the Second Prince of Northern Frontier had impersonated the new number one scholar.

Lu Yao suddenly raised his head and took a dazed look at the emperor sitting above him. In an instant, he had a completely new understanding of the phrase "act according to the circumstances".

His heart was pounding, and countless guesses instantly popped up in his mind.

Were the unusual tasks assigned to him by Emperor Mingze two days ago related to the little princess's thoughts?

Those missions were eventually proven to be true. Doesn't that mean that today's voice about Weng Zizhen is also a true event?

Lu Yao swallowed his saliva, leaned forward and tentatively replied: "Your Majesty, I...I suspect that the old man is really the second prince of Northern Frontier, Su Hongzhen, pretending to be him. However, I have not found clear evidence yet."

Is that correct?

Lu Yao raised his head carefully, wanting to take a look at the expression on Emperor Mingze's face, but happened to meet his eyes.

His movements faltered, and he quickly lowered his head again, his heart in turmoil.

only......

In that quick glance just now, he actually saw a look of satisfaction on the emperor's icy face, which had never changed for thousands of years.

Lu Yao felt that his bet was right!

[Eh, why do you need evidence? ]

[Can't you just kill the wrong person instead of letting him go? ]

The little princess's heart was filled with distress. Lu Yao thought bitterly, what kind of tyrant is this......

Although Emperor Mei Ze had a bad reputation in various countries, he was actually a very reasonable person.

Although he has the final say on that principle...

【Oh oh oh! 】

Lu Yao was cheered up.

[Before going to Beijing, Weng Zizhen had reported a case, saying that someone had robbed him on the road. At that time, his clothes were ragged and the birthmark on his chest was exposed. Many people saw it? ]

[If that's the case, then if we go to Weng Zizhen's hometown and find these witnesses, wouldn't it be possible to prove that this is fake? ]

【But how can I tell them? 】

Lu Yao suddenly said loudly: "But! I am going to send someone to visit Weng Zizhen's hometown, Kangyang County, to see if we can find any relevant clues."

Although the human skin masks nowadays can be almost indistinguishable from the real thing, the Second Prince of Northern Frontier would not paint another birthmark on his chest every day, right? !

If this can still be proven true...

Lu Yao looked at Jiang Yingcheng with sparkling eyes.

I wonder if the little princess is interested in joining the big family of the Royal Guard?

Do you like eating small cakes?

They have the most information about the Imperial Guards. They know which cakes in the capital are the most delicious.

Lu Yao was ready to go, and had already imagined countless beautiful scenes of promotion and salary increase in his mind.

This voice is so useful!

The little princess is simply a blessing!

"Okay." Jiang Yanchuan suddenly spoke, interrupting Lu Yao's thoughts.

Lu Yao suppressed his agitated mood, bowed and left the hall.

As soon as I walked out of the door, I was met with dozens of pairs of eyes looking at me.

The expressions on these people's faces were all of sudden realization, just like they were before he entered the door.

Lu Yao suddenly had a guess in his mind.

These officials should be able to hear the little princess's thoughts.

Because they were unable to control their expressions just now, they were noticed by the guards hiding in the dark, and they were all brought here, waiting to be summoned by Emperor Mingze.

Because the location here was too special, even though they had thousands of questions in their minds, they did not dare to inquire directly. They just scanned Lu Yao's body with their eager eyes.

Lu Yao puffed out his chest, his face full of satisfaction as he knew the whole story.

Hey guys.

There is a new world inside.
