He just left the mansion, but saw Xue Wanning leading the maids to chase him out.

"Master, where is this going?"

Xue Wanning learned from the subordinates that Lu Xiuyuan had brought back an outsider, she knew something was wrong, so she hurriedly asked.

"Madam would like to know?"

Lu Ming was on guard against her for a long time now, and reprimanded her in a lukewarm tone: "Then you have to ask Mr. Yue Zhang."

Xue Wanning's heart shuddered.

He has been against King Yun everywhere recently, and even arranged for Lu Xiuyuan to take charge of the Dali Temple prison without authorization, not to mention allowing others to visit the prison at will. It is not clear that he intends to deliberately threaten King Yun for his precious son.

"My lord, His Royal Highness Yun Wang and our family have the same sympathy, if you want to do harm to Yun Wang, our Lu family will also be implicated."

Xue Wanning said earnestly and earnestly.

"I think it's true that you want to get rid of Cheng Wei with the help of King Yun."

Now that the matter has come to this point, Lu Ming made it clear directly, and didn't bother to play with her anymore.

"My lord, what are you talking about? I'm also Chengwei's mother. How could I harm him?"

Xue Wanning looked shocked, and forced her composure to show an extremely aggrieved expression.

"You know what you have done, why should I remind you again?"

Lu Ming left her behind and left.

Xue Wanning had no choice but to send someone to report to King Yun.

When Lu Ming entered the palace, the emperor was reprimanding King Fu, King Yun, and Minister of the Ministry of War for the unfavorable border war.

Knowing that Lu Ming asked to see him, the emperor called him into the Hall of Mental Cultivation anxiously.

"Lu Aiqing, you came just in time, you really gave birth to a good son."

Only when he saw the first assistant, the emperor glared at him angrily and reprimanded: "Ye Chengwei was arrogant, he didn't listen to the advice of Zhang Xian, the governor of Datong. Even Qin Yi died in Wuzhou, and now even Datong has been lost, he really failed my high hopes for him."

"The dog is incompetent, please appease your majesty."

Lu Ming swallowed his anger and replied, holding back the anger in his heart, secretly glanced at King Fu and King Yun, and said righteously:

"Your Majesty, the veteran has also paid attention to the military situation in the past few months. According to the battle report from the front line, Quanzi achieved a great victory when he first arrived in Mobei. He opened the passage from Tongzhou to Xinzhou. He not only defended Xinzhou, but also recovered five cities. In the city, that Zhang Xian held an army of 15, but was defeated by attacking a small Shuozhou, and let Tongzhou fall, is this really caused by Gouzi's lone army going deep?"

"What do you mean by Mr. Chief Assistant?"

Fu Wang Zhu Zhiang curled his lips in dissatisfaction: "Datong Mansion is the fortress of our dynasty. Ye Chengwei knew that this place was very important, but he forced Zhang Xian to lead his army to attack Shuozhou. This obviously gave the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it. As a result, Not only did you lose the sesame seeds but you also broke the watermelon, now that the border is in an emergency again, the Chief Assistant still wants to be blatantly partial?"

"His Royal Highness Fu is collaborating with the enemy and traitorous to the country, what face does he have to confront the old minister in front of His Majesty today?"

Lu Ming was so angry that he didn't have any kindness towards him.

"Lu Shoufu speak carefully."

Zhu Zhichun, the king of Yun, felt that he was being foolish, and warned: "Fu Wang is a son of the royal family, how could he do such a disloyal thing, Mr. Shoufu slanders the royal family with empty words, this is a serious crime."

"His Royal Highness Prince Yun really thinks that putting people in jail will make them peaceful?"

Lu Ming immediately presented a letter of apology, pleading on his knees: "The old minister is guilty. Over the years, he has committed a lot of sins without knowing himself, and he owes the grace of God. But recently, he heard bad news about the border war. Jiangshan Sheji was harmed by traitors, and I am here to plead guilty to His Majesty."

"Master Chief Assistant."

Zhu Zhichun saw that he was looking like he was about to burn everything together, so he glared at him again as a warning.

Seeing that there was something tricky in it, the emperor immediately took the letter of apology and took a closer look. It clearly recorded the things he had concealed for the Qian family for King Yun in the early years, as well as the colleagues who had been killed by political enemies in these years.

Afraid that the emperor would still want to show favoritism, Lu Ming carefully inspected the emperor's uncertain face, bit the bullet and continued to report:
"The governor of Tongzhou Prefecture, Zhang Xian, and the supervising army, Zhao Heng, are self-respecting. The war has not progressed for so many years. Why did Ye Chengwei keep achieving great victories when he first arrived at the border? Hasn't Your Majesty thought about the reason for it? Someone The Tanshui alliance has already been signed for His Majesty, agreeing that the two countries will not invade each other, but now the Tatars are not keeping the covenant and have repeatedly invaded the south, which is likely to encroach on our territory and make a comeback. If Your Majesty does not notice it, our Daye Dynasty will sooner or later be overthrown Dangerous."

"Don't scare me, Mr. Chief Assistant."

King Fu and King Yun almost spoke in unison.

The emperor did not trust the words of his two sons this time.

All these years, he has turned a blind eye to the fight between his two sons. Even if the two continue to win over the courtiers, he only regards it as a bargaining chip to weigh the power of the court. But Zhang Xian was the candidate promoted by King Fu at the beginning, and The Ministry of War was also placed by King Yun with many forces.

Thinking carefully about the recent wars, he also noticed something strange.

Seeing that the emperor seemed to be moved, Lu Ming took the opportunity to remind him: "Your Majesty, Zhang Xian and Zhao Heng are far away in Mobei, and they cannot be questioned yet, but His Majesty's cronies, Jiang Zhu, are in prison at Dali Temple. Your Majesty only needs to personally interrogate him." This person, you can tell if you ask."

"Bring Jiang Zhu, that Qian family, Hua Rujin together into the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and I will ask him personally."

The emperor ordered, but he was a little worried. After hesitatingly looking around at the people in the hall, he pointed to the servant next to him in a daze: "Go and tell King Ning to ask him to go to Dali Temple to ask for someone, and send someone Escort a group of people here."

King Fu and King Yun frowned when they heard this, and looked at each other at a loss.

The hall became completely silent, and after a long silence, Hua Rujin, Jiang Zhu and his party were brought into the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The emperor first smiled warmly at Zhu Zhiye: "You have worked hard, Zhiye, go to your mother's palace to rest for a while."

Zhu Zhiye squinted at the two imperial brothers in the hall, seeing the malicious gazes of the two, how dare he leave just now, mustering up the courage to carefully protect Hua Rujin.

"Why, with so many people here, are you still worried that I have bad thoughts about this girl?"

The emperor stepped in dissatisfaction and walked up to Zhu Zhiye, and reminded him in a low voice: "I heard from your concubine mother that you met a woman in Jiangling City this time, and the one who was fascinated by her must be the one in front of you. I don't like my daughter-in-law showing up all day and playing tricks."

Seeing him still refusing to move after speaking, the emperor directly sank down and reprimanded angrily: "Go down quickly."

Lu Ming secretly winked at the side, Hua Rujin also felt that this silly prince was a bit bolder, and quietly tore his clothes, Zhu Zhiye bowed his hands and retreated.

The hall was shrouded in a tense atmosphere. The emperor wandered among the few people for a long time, and finally walked back to Hua Rujin. After staring at her several times, he said again: "I heard that you Is it the daughter of Governor Luo?"
