After eavesdropping on my thoughts, the cannon fodder family went crazy!

Chapter 5: Falsely Accused of Collaborating with the Enemy and Treason
  The Seventh Prince felt happy in his heart, but he did not show it on his face. Instead, he asked with a serious face: "General Lu, is what this woman said true?"

"presumptuous!"

"Who gave you the courage to slander my general's office?" Lu Jingyuan was furious and glanced at Murong Xue with sharp eyes.

Murong Xue lowered her head, slightly curling her lips where no one else could see her, pretending to be afraid and begging the Seventh Prince.

"I beg Your Highness Seventh to make the decision for the daughter of the people. The daughter of the people has seen this with her own eyes. We will find out if it is true."

"Oh, our Lu family has been loyal to Your Majesty for generations, and we have fought against foreign aggression for our country. No matter who secretly colludes with the enemy country, it is impossible for our general office to collude with the enemy country!"

Lu Jingyuan sarcastically looked at Murong Xue who was kneeling on the ground. The aura around him was so oppressive that it was impossible to breathe.

However, Lu Jingyuan still had lingering fears. If he hadn't been able to hear his daughter, perhaps the General's Mansion would really be charged with treason and treason!

He looked at Murong Xue with even colder eyes.

For a moment, the atmosphere seemed a little solemn.

The Seventh Prince was naturally unwilling to let go of this opportunity and couldn't help but say: "General Lu, this woman doesn't look like someone who talks nonsense. This matter is of great importance. I would like to ask General Lu to be accommodating and let someone investigate."

[Even if I have to disappoint you, hehe, fortunately, dad discovered it early this time and was smart enough to destroy the evidence. 】

Lu Jingyuan and Yourong straightened their backs.

Nannan praised him for being smart!

Afterwards, Lu Jingyuan glanced at the Seventh Prince with disdain. He was not afraid of being investigated by the other party at all, but he would not allow the other party to ride on his neck and dominate him.

"Seventh Prince, I don't just check the General's Mansion on your orders. If you want to check my General's Mansion, unless it is a decree from the Holy Lord, even if you are a prince, you are not qualified to check my General's Mansion."

The seventh prince's face was not very pretty, and the other party's words were like a slap in the face.

Lu Jingyuan ignored the other party's ugly face and continued to taunt: "If anyone can frame my General's Mansion with a casual word like her, and investigate whenever they want, then what do you think of my General's Mansion?"

"A civilian girl dares to guarantee her life. She is not just talking nonsense. I have actually seen with my own eyes the letter of secret collusion between the General's Mansion and the enemy country. That's why General Lu wants to kill people and silence them." Murong Xue straightened her back and had a firm look on her face. It was obvious. It's not like he's lying.

The seventh prince's eyes flickered slightly. He didn't want to offend Lu Jingyuan, but he also didn't want to let go of such a good opportunity so easily.

"This matter is of great importance, and this woman has pledged her life, so she shouldn't lie. Besides, it will not do her any good. Why don't General Lu let His Highness's people investigate? If not, it can also prove the innocence of the General’s Mansion.”

The Seventh Prince used retreat to advance.

"What if I don't agree, general?" Lu Jingyuan said with a serious face.

"It's just a matter of letting people go in to investigate, not a large-scale manhunt. Why is General Lu so reluctant?" The seventh prince's eyes were suspicious.

Originally, he didn't quite believe what the woman said, but now that he saw Lu Jingyuan blocking her like this, he couldn't help but suspect that the other party was guilty of a guilty conscience, so he didn't dare to let anyone search her.

Could it be that the General's Mansion really communicated with the enemy?
  Thinking of this possibility, the Seventh Prince narrowed his eyes.

"Is it true that, as this woman said, General Lu, you are secretly colluding with the enemy country?"

Lu Jingyuan's aura was overwhelming: "What does the Seventh Prince mean by saying this? What I, Lu, have done is worthy of the Great Sheng Dynasty, and my Lu family has repelled enemy armies countless times, and now just because of someone else's casual words If you say that, you suspect that my general’s office is collaborating with the enemy and treason!”

"That's ridiculous!" Lu Jingyuan shook his sleeves angrily. Although the seventh prince wanted to investigate, he did not dare to really offend Lu Jingyuan until there was no conclusive evidence proving that he was really collaborating with the enemy and treason.

"General Lu, there is no need to be so angry. Isn't this still uncertain? After all, this kind of thing is not a trivial matter. I just want to investigate. If General Lu has not done such a thing, he should not be afraid of investigation. Why is General Lu So resistant?”

"So? If this general disagrees, does that mean he is colluding with the enemy?" Lu Jingyuan asked.

The seventh prince smiled and said: "Please ask General Lu to be accommodating. I will report to my father Ming afterward."

"Is the seventh prince forcing this general again?"

"Okay, okay, I want to see what you can find!"

The Seventh Prince directly led his people in to search, but nothing was found, which made him a little unsure.

Murong Xue spoke again: "I saw General Lu hiding something in a secret compartment beside the bed."

Lu Jingyuan pretended to be angry, which made the seventh prince even more suspicious, and he immediately asked someone to investigate.

It's a pity that it is empty inside, there is nothing.

Murong Xue's face was full of shock: "How is this possible?"

She remembered that she had clearly put it in this place, how could it not have been there?
  Lu Jingyuan sneered: "Didn't you say that this general is collaborating with the enemy and treason? Now we have searched for it, where is the evidence?"

The Seventh Prince did not expect that things would turn out like this. He was so angry that he kicked Murong Xue directly, causing Murong Xue to lie on the ground.

"Who gave you the courage to play tricks on me!"

Murong Xue was so angry that she couldn't understand why she failed.

Then the seventh prince looked at Lu Jingyuan and said very apologetically: "I believed this woman's lies and misunderstood General Lu. I hope General Lu will forgive me."

Lu Jingyuan didn't buy it and said angrily: "Seventh Prince, there is no need to say anything. The Lu family has never done anything to disgrace the Sheng Kingdom. Since you suspect that the Lu family is collaborating with the enemy and treason, I will go to the palace and report it to the emperor now." situation, let the emperor take back his military power."

"I, the Lu family, will not suffer such injustice for no reason!"

After saying that, Lu Jingyuan walked out with a calm face.

Seeing this, the seventh prince suddenly panicked. If his father really knew about this, his father would definitely blame himself.

What's more, the reason why Shengguo has been able to live and work in peace and contentment in these years is all because Lu Jingyuan fought off the enemy in foreign battles, and it is precisely because of this that the Lu family's reputation is very high among the people.

The Seventh Prince quickly chased after Lu Jingyuan and stopped him.

"General Lu, please stay. What happened just now is indeed my fault." The seventh prince apologized.

"Actually, I don't believe what the woman said. General Lu is brave and good at fighting and has defeated countless enemy troops. How could he secretly collude with the enemy? But the woman said such things. If he didn't investigate, I I was worried that some unfavorable rumors would spread against General Lu, so I wanted to investigate."

Lu Youyou stayed in Lu Jingyuan's arms and watched this wonderful show, her big dark eyes shining brightly.

[Now I know I am afraid. I am afraid that my father will go to the palace to complain and dare to challenge the general's palace. Hehe, such a bad heart should be taught a lesson. 】
