Seeing a large group of people surrounding the old lady and walking towards the Dali Temple, Wen Yu laughed out loud.
At this time, Lu Ren's voice sounded in his ears, "Princess, didn't I tell you to go back to the carriage? I didn't see you in the carriage just now, and your maid said you didn't go back, I..."
He was halfway through his words when he seemed to realize something and got stuck. He just pursed his lips with a straight face and stopped talking.
Wen Yu turned her head with interest and saw Lu Ren holding a knife, standing silently behind her, the anxious look on his face had not completely faded.
"You, what are you talking about? You left me there and ran away. I can't move freely? Do you think you are right? You come to me to accuse me? Who gave you the courage?"
Lu Ren's eyes flashed with annoyance, and he was about to kneel down, but Wen Yu held him back, "Don't kneel down like that."
"This matter was my negligence. Princess, you can punish me however you want."
Wen Yu blinked and perked up: "I can punish you in any way I want? Really?"
Lu Ren: ...
Seeing the gradually excited expression on Wen Yu's face, Lu Ren inexplicably had a bad feeling in his heart.
"I've made note of that." Wen Yu snorted and asked, "Are you worried when I'm not around?"
Lu Ren nodded truthfully: "Of course."
Wen Yu's face was full of interest: "Are you worried about me?"
Lu Ren said seriously: "I lost the princess, which is a capital crime. The whole family will be executed, so I am naturally anxious and nervous."
Wen Yu: ...You are really good.
Back in the carriage, Liuchun also looked anxious.
Seeing Wen Yu coming back, he quickly breathed a sigh of relief: "Princess, you scared me to death. If I wasn't afraid that you would come back and I would not be there, I would have gone to look for you."
Wen Yu made her feel at ease, and snorted, "It's General Lu who spread the news. How can the army be so upset? How can we fight on the battlefield when we are so confused?"
Lu Ren: ...
"It was me who lost my composure."
Wen Yu put her fingertips on Lu Ren's chest and said faintly, "Are you confused or confused?"
Lu Ren suddenly felt his whole body go numb, and his heart, which was being pressed against him, was throbbing as if it was about to explode.
He immediately lowered his head, moved his lips, and was about to say something.
Wen Yu didn't care about his answer at all. She changed the subject, returned to her serious demeanor, and asked, "What did you find out during the secret investigation?"
Before Lu Ren's heartbeat could stabilize, he felt as if cold water was poured over his head.
He was silent for a moment, then raised his eyes and said, "I have found out something. I need to go to the palace immediately to report to His Majesty."
Wen Yu blinked, her head full of question marks: "Why did you just skip over me? Did you treat me like air?"
Lu Ren: ...
He sighed and said, "Princess, it's not that I won't tell you, but this matter involves confidential matters, so it's best if you don't know about it."
The hidden meaning of this statement is that only the emperor can know about this matter. Anyone else who knows about it will be in big trouble, including her, the eldest princess.
Wen Yu said: "I am just a fool princess, you go find the emperor's brother."
As he said that, he drove Lu Ren off the carriage.
After returning to the princess's mansion, Wen Yu took a hot bath and fell into a deep sleep.
And since that day, Lu Ren disappeared for three days.
Three days later, Liu Chun told her that Lu Jin was acquitted.
Wen Yu jumped up from the bed and said excitedly, "Really?"
Liuchun felt that Wen Yu's reaction was a little strange, as if she was a little too excited.
She nodded and said, "Really? Didn't you tell us to keep an eye on it? This is first-hand information from the Heavenly Prison."
As she said, someone from the palace came and said that the emperor summoned her.
Wen Yu packed up and went to the palace, where the emperor was reviewing memorials.
Seeing her arrive, the emperor was pleased and said, "My sister, you have done a good job on this matter. What reward do you want?"
Wen Yu found a chair and sat down, very modestly: "No, no, no, I am taking what you said seriously. As for the reward, my royal brother, you can give it to me. Anyway, I will go and get what I want later."
The emperor put down his imperial brush upon hearing this, smiled, and said jokingly, "I heard that the imperial sister helped a scholar taking an exam in the teahouse? I guess the imperial sister took a fancy to him?"
Wen Yu was surprised, but did not deny it: "Royal brother, how did you know that? Did Lu Ren tell you?"
The emperor shook his head in amusement. He glanced at the screen in the side hall, looking at the excitement and said with a smile: "This time, my sister did not use the Dali Temple to investigate the case, but she called the prime minister..."
As soon as the words came out, Wen Yu waved her hands: "How could I call him? I couldn't hide in time. He said he wanted to thank me, and then Lu Ren said a lot, so I bit the bullet and agreed."
"Oh, is that so?" the emperor continued, "Then what do you think of my marrying the prime minister to Ling Yunshi, my sister?"
Wen Yu immediately clapped her hands: "Well done, my brother! Do you know how great a merit it is to have a couple who are in love with each other?"
The emperor raised his eyebrows. It seemed that his sister really had no attachment to the prime minister. He said, "Let's discuss this later."
Wen Yu nodded indifferently and asked, "Royal brother, Lu Ren has disappeared for three days. Do you know where he went?"
The emperor took a sip of tea and smiled: "Is your sister in a hurry to take credit?"
Then he changed the subject, "Speaking of which, sister, you have been investigating for so long, but I have intercepted you. Don't you even ask me what's going on?"
Wen Yu paused.
Then he also imitated him and drank a sip of the tea at hand, with a strange look on his face, and said: "Am I investigating the case to find out what happened? It has nothing to do with me. I just did it for the beauty."
Wen Yu's self-righteousness made the emperor silent for three seconds.
