Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 969 Forced into the palace

Lu Changan said this in a low voice, but Liu Yunxiang was not far away, so he still heard it clearly.

She frowned, not expecting that Lu Changan would...use such despicable means.He took the life of Grand Scholar Wu and forced Mrs. Wu to give up seeking justice for herself.

Mrs. Wu, who had been restraining herself from crying, cried at this moment, and her straight waist also bent down.As she said, the Wu family now has no backbone, only a few old, weak, women and children. This is the only way they can think of, but Lu Changan decided it with just one word.

Lu Changan took a step back, showing a look of compassion, "Last night, I was indeed invited to Yingyuexuan. Miss Wu heard the news from nowhere, so I chased after her. She begged me to release Mrs. Wu from prison. Release her, and I will explain to her that Mr. Wu has killed someone and has confessed his crime. He cannot be let go just because he is a minister of the court. The emperor is still guilty of the same crime as the common people. No matter how powerful he is as a great scholar, he cannot kill the people indiscriminately. .”

"Miss Wu refused to listen to the explanation and even threatened death. I really couldn't agree to her, so she hit the wall."

Said Lu Changan sighed: "Miss Wu is so young, I feel sorry for her very much."

After hearing this, the Wu family just cried and no one dared to argue.

When the people heard this explanation, they shook their heads.

"King Suping did the right thing. You can't just kill people just because he is a bachelor."

"This girl from the Wu family is going too far by threatening her with her life."

"Sure enough, King Suping is a good official who truly makes decisions for our people."

The people's discussion was so loud that Mrs. Wu heard it. She knelt and crawled to the coffin, reaching out to touch her daughter's cold face.

"Qianqian, mother is useless, mother can't help you anymore."

The Wu family stepped forward to help Mrs. Wu and closed the lid of Wu Qianqian's coffin. Instead of getting justice, she got a reputation of being ignorant. The Wu family had no choice but to endure it, carry the coffin and leave.

The people saw enough excitement and dispersed. Liu Yunxiang was afraid that Lu Changan would find out, so he followed the crowd to the street.After walking far away, Liu Yunxiang looked back and saw Lu Changan still standing there with his head lowered, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Girl, you keep going forward, and I'll take the opportunity to deliver the letter to Lu Chang'an." As he said this, Zi Jin turned around and went back.

Lu Changan looked at the place where the coffin was originally placed, and his mind was filled with the scene when Wu Qianqian hit the pillar last night. She looked at him with anger or disgust, and he seemed to see himself in her eyes. That look disgusted even him. .

Today's method was too common. It was so common that he used it at his fingertips, but he didn't realize it was despicable.

Is your heart as clear and clean as the bright moon?

Hehe, you must be very stupid like that.

"Your Majesty, someone slipped a letter in front of our house." A gatekeeper walked up to Lu Changan and said with a letter in his hand. He was also surprised because it was clearly not there just now.Moreover, there are always people in front of their door, and no one has been seen putting it here.

Lu Changan glanced at it lightly, his pupils suddenly shrank when he saw the writing on it, and he hurriedly took it to read.

There was only one sentence in the letter, asking him to chat in front of the Xicheng Confucian Temple in the evening.He looked carefully at the handwriting, and there was absolutely no mistake. It was Liu Yunxiang's handwriting.

She is in Shengjing?How can it be!

But he thought of the figure last night. Was it really her?
As the night darkened, Liu Yunxiang and others waited in the alley opposite the palace, waiting under the cover of night.Finally, the gate of the palace opened, and Lu Changan came out with Danqing, then rode his horse to the west.

Liu Yunxiang and Xue Changfeng looked at each other, "One hour at most."

Xue Changfeng nodded, "That should be enough."

Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath, straightened his clothes, and then walked to the front of the palace with Xue Changfeng and others who were pretending to be guards.When he got to the door, Xue Changfeng knocked hard, making loud clanging noises.

In response, a crack was quickly opened inside, and the guard guard looked out and was stunned for a moment when he saw the formation.

"Go away, the Queen is not here."

The boy looked over quickly. Under the darkness, he first recognized the palace attire.The queen likes peonies, which symbolize wealth, so most of her clothes are in the style of rich flowers blooming.

Look at that face again, with heavy makeup, she is the Queen. "Your Majesty... our prince has just gone out."

"I will go inside and wait for him."

"This……"

Xue Changfeng kicked the guard boy away, "How many lives do you have, how dare you stop the Queen?"

How dare that little boy stop the Queen? Besides, the Queen often visits at night, so he is used to it.But he is the goalkeeper, so he has to stop him, and then he will inevitably get kicked.

This process was so familiar that the boy rolled twice on the ground to get out of the way.

Liu Yunxiang strode inside, and the servants in the mansion got out of the way when they saw her.All the way to the east courtyard, there were guards guarding the gate. They were not as easy to fool as the gatekeepers.

"Madam, the prince has gone out. If you want to wait for him, you can go to the flower hall in the backyard." A guard stopped him.

Liu Yunxiang raised his hand and slapped him, "I can wait wherever I want, get out of here!"

"Your Majesty, the prince has told me that no one can enter the east courtyard, including you."

Liu Yunxiang narrowed his eyes. It seemed that after that night, Lu Changan became more cautious and ordered the queen not to go in.

"What if I insist on going in?"

The guard clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, please don't embarrass me."

"Go away!" she yelled angrily.

At this time, another guard came over. He should be the captain of the guard, and he was also the person who reported to Lu Changan that he had two queens.He stepped forward and looked at Liu Yunxiang, with doubts still in his eyes.

"I recognize you. That night you said that I was someone else pretending to be you, right?"

Upon hearing this, the captain of the guard hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted, "I am blind, please forgive me."

"Then take a closer look now, is this palace real or fake?"

This momentum was so strong that the captain of the guard only raised his head and said hurriedly: "Of course your Majesty is not fake."

"Then get out of here, I'm going in!"

"This……"

"I am pregnant. If I catch the wind, will you be responsible? Can the prince spare you?"

The pregnant woman was delicate, so the captain of the guard hesitated for a while, but still ordered his men to get out of the way.Watching the queen leading people in, the guard next to her whispered: "Boss, I'm afraid it's not appropriate. Will the prince blame us?"

The captain of the guard took a deep breath, "This child in my belly is too valuable. If we make a mistake, we will all die!"

Upon hearing this, the guard did not dare to say anything.

After entering the east courtyard, Liu Yunxiang led Xue Changfeng and others directly towards the courtyard where Mrs. Xiao and her son were imprisoned.When he encountered patrolmen on the way, Liu Yunxiang tried to scare them, but they did not dare to stop him too much.

When they arrived at the courtyard, there were still guards, but time was running out. Xue Changfeng took advantage of them not paying attention and led his men to assassinate them.

A group of people broke into the courtyard and saw Xiao Yuchen running around in circles in the courtyard anxiously.

"Little Master Xiao!"
