"Punishment?" Yi Ning immediately realized what was happening. Luo Shenyuan must be trying to gain greater benefits for himself.
Luo Shenyuan wasn't quite so pleased. He'd revealed his hand too early, and the impact wasn't strong enough. He'd hoped the emperor would punish him first, then reveal his secrets. The emperor's guilt would ensure his future position as Minister of Works, but Wei Ling hadn't resisted the censors' provocation and revealed his secrets. He felt helpless, but he couldn't resist his father-in-law's defense. Even in the face of the emperor's shock, he had to admit it.
The emperor personally stepped down from the dragon throne to support him, saying that he was a pillar of talent. He also scolded Xu Yongqing, the official in the Ministry of Personnel who led the group.
Lu Jiaxue said nothing, but stood beside him, looking at Wei Ling with a half-smile, his eyes slightly cold.
However, the benefits gained were not as good as expected, and the blow to Lu Jiaxue was not enough. For Luo Shenyuan, it was of little use, even a waste.
Yi Ning thought of the scene her uncle had just described and regretted that she could not witness the intense scene with her own eyes. She sincerely admired Luo Shenyuan. No wonder he was the Prime Minister at such a young age. With such a character!

"The emperor has been annoyed by these people for a long time. He will smash them if he has the chance." Luo Shenyuan said, taking out the embroidery frame she usually used.

Luo Shenyuan's expression turned cold. He put down the embroidery frame and said slowly with drooping eyelids, "He didn't say anything."
Luo Yining pondered for a moment: "I was with him at the time... I heard that he wanted to use Zeng Yingkun to harm you. Now you have benefited from the incident at Pingyuan Fort, and there is no telling what he will do. He has always been a scoundrel, and he will achieve his goals by any means..."
"Stop talking!" Luo Shenyuan suddenly interrupted her.
Luo Yining was a little slow to react. When she told him about this person, he suddenly became angry. Luo Shenyuan stood up, closed his eyes, and said, "I'm sorry, you should rest first." Then he quickly walked out of the room.
Looking at his back, Yining felt a little sad.
In fact, Third Brother still cares about her being abducted by Lu Jiaxue. After all, few men can not care.
