Chapter 351 The Truth
Qi Ru was rescued and came up to Lu Zhan crying, "It was Zhen Baozhu who pushed me, she wanted to kill me."

After that, Zhen Baozhu spread his hands helplessly.

Qi Ru took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me and punish my murderer."

Lu Zhan asked warmly: "You said Baozhu pushed you, did anyone see it?"

Qi Ru hurriedly pointed to the little eunuch who had just rushed over.

The little eunuch thought about the rumors in the palace that Qi Changzai was Lu Zhan's favourite, and he hesitated for a while and said, "Unfortunately, Qi Changzai fell into the water when the servant just left."

In this way, no one is always to blame.

Lu Zhan said directly: "That means I didn't see it, and I don't have any witnesses, so it's hard to handle."

Qi Ru was not happy, "When the concubine fell into the water, only Zhen Chang was by her side, so why can the concubine jump into the water alone?"

"That's not necessarily true." Lu Zhan said, "Qi Chang used to be able to kill rabbits because of women's jealousy, but now he deliberately falls into the water to frame Zhen Changzai in order to win favor."

If it is said that he wanted to use Qi Ru to block Zhen Baozhu's arrows, that's fine.

Now Lu Zhan Qiru has no patience at all.

Speaking of the past, Qi Ru turned pale.

"Lu Zhan, how can you say that about me?" She questioned in disbelief.

Lu Zhan said, "Isn't what I said the truth?"

"Qi Changzai is the queen mother's niece. For the sake of the queen mother, I don't care about your mistake this time. Go back and take good care of your health. Don't come out easily." Lu Zhan said, and asked the little eunuch beside him to send Qi Ru back to the palace.

Qi Ru was almost escorted back to the palace.

Lu Zhan got up, "Let's go, I happen to be going to the Empress Dowager's palace, and I will see you off along the way."

The two walked out of the palace gate of the upper study room hand in hand.

"She looks pitiful." Zhen Baozhu thought for a while and said, "I know brother Zhan wants to protect me, but if I want to take advantage of another girl's feelings, I can't bear it."

"When I chose to enter the palace, I had the courage to face all this. Brother Zhan doesn't need to drag others into the quagmire just to protect me."

She tilted her head and looked straight into Lu Zhan's eyes.

"I'm not as fragile as you think."

Qi Ru, who has always been noble and arrogant, takes others' love and admiration for granted.

There is no doubt that a person who has been stepped on by himself is not masochistic, so how could he like himself.

"Okay, I'll explain it to her." Lu Zhan didn't want to deal with others either.

It's just that he promised Xie's parents to protect Baozhu.

But if Baozhu didn't want to, he wouldn't do it.

He'll clean up this mess as quickly as possible.

After sending Zhen Baozhu back to Concubine Yaxian's palace, Lu Zhan came to the Empress Dowager.

The empress dowager is getting old, and she is always extremely lethargic, and she hasn't woken up yet.

Lu Zhan waited outside.

After waiting, it's time for the sunset.

When the empress dowager heard that the emperor was coming, she hurriedly asked people to come in.

In fact, when Lu Zhan just came to the throne, the political affairs were handled by several auxiliary ministers.

When Lu Zhan was not studying, he would go to and from the Empress Dowager's Palace every day to chat with the Empress Dowager and relieve boredom.

The empress dowager has been unfamiliar with this young man from the beginning, but now she appreciates him very much, and she regards him as her own junior.

Later, the emperor was in charge, and the empress dowager asked him to concentrate on political affairs without paying her respects.

So Lu Zhan only came to pay her respects to the old man on the first and fifteenth day of every month.

"Your Majesty is here today, I'm afraid he has a business to do." The Empress Dowager said very kindly: "If there is a business to do in the future, just let them wake up Ai's family. The whole family doesn't have to look outside like this."

"It's nothing particularly important." Lu Zhan said to the Empress Dowager, "A while ago, the Empress Dowager named my sister-in-law in the Jiangling Palace as Princess Shuyi, Princess Shuyi and the regent The eldest son hit it off right away, so my sister-in-law went to live in the Prince Regent's mansion for a few days."

"Yesterday, the news came from my sister-in-law that the princess regent passed away, but the regent kept this matter a secret."

The Empress Dowager has arranged manpower in the Prince Regent's Mansion, and she got the news yesterday and knew the whole process.

Lu Qiwan is Lu Zhan's sister-in-law, so it's not surprising that she would tell Lu Zhan these things, but the Empress Dowager is very curious about what Lu Zhan will do.

Lu Zhan said: "Grandson thinks that the reason why the regent concealed the death of the regent princess is probably because of a guilty conscience, and grandson wants to tell Lianghou about it."

The Empress Dowager said: "Then Liang Yingying is just Marquis Liang's righteous daughter. If this righteous daughter dies, she can be replaced by another righteous daughter, which is of little use."

"But you can also drive them apart. If you want to do it, Aijia will help you."

The Empress Dowager told Lu Zhan the manpower she had arranged in the Prince Regent's Mansion.

Lu Zhan took a look and suddenly found that this person was Jiang Ci.

After Jiang Ci failed in many trials, he saved Lu Qian once again by chance, and was acquired by the Prince Regent and became a staff member of the Palace of the Regent.

"After the late emperor left, he already thought about it for you. He knew that Jiang Ci had some private relationship with you when he was in Jiangling."

"Because of the unpleasant quarrel between the Jiang family and the Jiang Ling Palace, Jiang Ci is from the Jiang family. In the eyes of everyone, Jiang Ci has nothing to do with you."

"Five years ago, with Jiang Ci's level at that time, he actually won the imperial examination, but the late emperor did not win him."

"Privately order him to win the trust of the regent, and he can cooperate with you internally and externally at critical times."

"The first emperor didn't tell you, because this move must be used at the most critical moment. Do you think it's that time?"

The Empress Dowager waved her hand, "That's all I can say about my family, what you want to do, the emperor can do as you like."

Lu Zhan had mixed feelings in his heart.

Five years ago, the emperor hurriedly chose him as the crown prince, and taught him carefully.

Although it is only a short matter, it is also a warm feeling like a father that Lu Zhan has never had.

The first emperor also made this move for him.

Although it wasn't just for him, Lu Zhan was also moved in his heart.

Next, he proceeded to contact Jiang Ci.

Jiang Ci had expected that Lu Zhan would come to find him, but he never expected that Lu Zhan came to him not only because of the death of the regent princess, but also told him a shocking secret.

Jiang Ci bought the maidservant whom Liang Yingying valued in the past, and brought the news to Lianghou.

On the same day, Liang Hou went directly to the Prince Regent's Mansion to see the princess, and found Liang Yingying's body.

Taking this opportunity, Liang Hou broke up with the regent.

The regent was puzzled, but he was just a righteous daughter, and Marquis Liang would not react so much.

Shen Guogong knew the truth.

He called the regent in private and told the truth.

The regent was stunned.

Compared to Riri, with resentment, he questioned why the Empress Dowager treated him so unfairly, so he wanted to prove himself desperately.

He would rather not know the truth.
