Chu's Zhaohua

Chapter 248

When Mu Changxu came back, he learned that Father already knew the truth of the matter, and that Mother Ru had been sent to the government. He was silent for a while. After hearing that Mother had lost her temper, he did not visit Ji in his yard, but went back to in his own yard.

Soon, Ru Niang was sent to the government, and the murder case of Donglai Restaurant was also uncovered.

Ru Niang surrendered to the government officials, saying that she did everything, and she couldn't understand the business of Donglai Restaurant, so she poisoned people to frame Donglai Restaurant, and she also said that she told that person to give it to her. It's a bag of laxatives, but it's actually a bag of poison.

The Prime Minister's Mansion also came forward, saying that it was all done on the initiative of this Ru Niang, and had nothing to do with the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Since the prime minister's office said so, the official's office naturally followed the rules and beheaded Ru Niang.

On the day of the beheading, many people in Yecheng went to see it, but Chu Chan didn't go. She knew that this time it would be such a result, and it could be regarded as a warning to the prime minister's wife.If the matter ended here, she would not be doing anything. If the prime minister's wife is still not reconciled, it will not be such a result next time.

As for Mu Changxu, she didn't mention it, and Chu Chan didn't intend to mention it either. After spending so many days with Mu Changxu, she knows this girl well. There is no such thing as a bad heart. It's just that it's normal for it to be difficult to make a choice when encountering such a thing. , she does not blame her.

A few days later, Prince Wu and the envoy of Wu State set off to return to the State of Wu, but as soon as they arrived at the junction of the two countries, the envoy of the State of Wu was assassinated suddenly. Qin's relationship has also become more tense.

After Chu Chan heard about this incident, she always felt a little weird. The death of the envoy from the Kingdom of Wu was too unfortunate, but she didn't see the body or the scene, so Chu Chan was not sure what was going on.

This incident had an impact on the relationship between the two countries, and the king of Qin was also a little worried. The state of Wu was growing stronger and stronger, and if there was a fight, it would not be of any benefit to the state of Qin.

After being stable for so many years, the king of Qin didn't want to see the chaos of war. He was not worried about the people, but himself. If there was a war, it would not be stable for the throne. Troubled times always produce heroes. If there is some appeal, pull him down. King Qin is not impossible, so he is not willing to let the relationship between the two countries deteriorate.

King Wu was very angry that the envoy was killed at the junction of the two countries. He wrote to King Qin to give an explanation.

King Qin didn't want to take care of such matters at all, so he left it all to Wei Heng.

Wei Heng said, "Your Majesty, if this matter is a little careless, it will lead to war between the two countries. I thought, why don't you call in counselors to discuss it together?"

King Qin thought for a while, "Let's just follow Wei Aiqing."

"Since Your Majesty has agreed, I will arrange for the counselors to come to the hall to discuss this matter at Sishi tomorrow."

"Gu agreed." King Qin yawned as he spoke, "Wei Aiqing, hurry up and get a elixir for Gu to take."

Wei Heng went back to the bedroom, and asked someone to notify the counselors, and then asked someone to deliver a message to the Chu family, asking her to come to the palace to discuss matters tomorrow at six o'clock.

Chu Chan received the dictation and guessed that this entry into the palace might have something to do with the envoy of Wu.

The next day, she asked her maidservant to deliver a letter to her husband, saying that she could not go to study art today, but to go to the palace, and then took a carriage to the palace.

The Chu family needs more carriages now. Chu Chan bought a carriage and horses a few days ago, and went to the slave market to pick out a driver who can drive. He looks about forty years old and his name is Guo. Big.

Chu Chan usually calls him Uncle Guo.

When they came to the entrance of the palace, the carriage was parked outside, and Chu Chan got out of the carriage.
