Empress: Your Majesty, please respect yourself, I don't want to be promoted

After getting the love letter written by Xia Yan himself, Lu Chen comforted Xia Yun a few words, and at the same time assured Xia Yan that even if he risked everything, he would avenge his wrongdoing.

For his attitude, Xia Yun couldn't hide the ecstasy on his face.

"Lord Lu, I leave everything to you!"

He knelt heavily on the ground, and raised his voice: "If the Xia family can escape this catastrophe, I, Xia Yun, swear here that I will make a straw ring in this life to repay Lord Lu's kindness!"

"Don't do that."

Lu Chen waved to him.

"Don't say that at the end of my life, Master Xia is kind to me. Even if I live a normal life with Master Xia, I will never stand by and let a good official like Master Xia die unjustly."

Hearing this, Xia Yun suddenly choked up.

"Master Lu still understands my father."

He got up slowly, rubbing the corners of his eyes, and said with a sob: "Everyone says that my father is greedy, saying that 'the yamen is only open for the rich, don't come in if there is a reason, no money', he is a big corrupt official who will be put into the frying pan sooner or later." , sometimes even my son thinks so, and only you, Mr. Lu, have always firmly believed that my father is a really good official..."

Wonima!

Hearing Xia Yun's words, Lu Chen almost flew off in embarrassment.

You can't talk, can you talk less? ! It's hard for me to talk like that!

Xia Yan's face was even more weird.

Although I knew that my son was a little careless, I didn't expect it to be so exaggerated...

Shaking his head, Xia Yan went to the cell, looked at Lu Chen, hesitated for a moment, and then said slowly: "Master Lu, I have nothing to say, I just hope that you will do what you can, as the saying goes, both right and wrong. Don't force it, everything should go with the flow."

Speaking of this, he bowed slightly to Lu Chen, arched his hands, and said solemnly: "However, no matter what the result is, this old man will accept your love."

He didn't beg or beg Lu Chen fiercely, but he just expressed his gratitude calmly.

With such an attitude, Lu Chen inexplicably felt a faint sense of foreboding.

For some reason, he felt that there was something wrong with Xia Yan's reaction.

But if you want to express it in detail, you can't say it.

There is a light subtlety to it.

Unable to think of a reason, Lu Chen could only think that Xia Yan was more open-minded by nature, so he didn't think about it any more.

"Lord Xia, don't worry, I will definitely do my best!"

After all, in order to prevent Xia Yun from saying anything that would embarrass everyone, he turned around, clutched the love letter in his hand and walked outside.

While walking, he said to the two people behind him without looking back: "Let's wait for the good news."

Looking at Lu Chen's back that was drifting away, Xia Yan shook his head again, returned to the straw pile and sat down cross-legged.

"father."

Xia Yun came over and asked with some trepidation: "Then Mr. Lu, is he reliable?"

Xia Yan raised his eyes.

"How reliable is it, so what if it's not reliable? At this point, he is the only one who is willing to help us and run for us. If this is the case, don't think about this or that, otherwise you will only worry about gains and losses and increase your troubles."

Hearing this, Xia Yun thought for a while, and felt that what his father said was indeed correct.

If Lu Chen is reliable, then everything will be fine, but if he is not reliable, they will not be able to change anything.

Whether you care or not, the result is the same.

That being the case, there is no need to think too much about it.

Whatever happens, just let nature take its course.

Not long after Lu Chen left the sky prison, several figures walked out of the sky prison one after another, and then quickly left in different directions.

Apparently, he, the seemingly insignificant little seventh-rank official, has already begun to affect the nerves of all parties.

Even if you just come to visit the prison, you will be watched by some caring people.

……………

Lu Chen went straight back home, ordered Xiao Yu to be served by the Four Treasures of the Study, and began to draft the memorial and prepare the corresponding application documents.

He has always been a man of action.

Then, the next morning, Lu Chen walked into the Tai Chi Hall on time.

Immediately afterwards, when the eunuch shouted sharply: "Let's play if there is something to do, and leave the court if there is nothing to do!", he directly stepped out of the crowd and bowed to the empress on the high platform.

"Your Majesty, minister, Lu Chen has a book for the engineering department!"

Seeing this, everyone looked at him curiously.

This product has only been stable for two days, why did it pop up again so soon? !

What are you going to do this time?

There was no expression on the empress's face, she just looked at Lu Chen quietly.

"You don't have to be polite."

She gave her a little support, and then continued, "What's the matter for Lu Aiqing to start?"

Lu Chen grabbed the fluorene board, glanced at some key words written in advance on it, and then raised his voice: "Please reopen the case of Xia Yan, the magistrate of Yongchuan County, for taking bribes, taking advantage of the common people, and colluding with the Queen Mother's henchmen! "

Hearing this, most of the courtiers were a little confused.

what's the situation?

Xia Yan, magistrate of Yongchuan County? Where is that onion?

Why did this guy make a special trip to stand up for that Xia Yan?

Immediately afterwards, before they could react, the Empress spoke again.

"Ready to play!"

The crisp and clear response instantly resounded throughout the hall.

Before everyone had time to figure out which state and county Yongchuan was in, which corner of the small county it was located in, how they should respond, and whether they should show their sense of existence, the Empress directly agreed to Lu Chen's application.

Didn't even ask a question!

Looking at that posture, it seemed that even if Lu Chen asked to release Xia Yan immediately, she would agree without hesitation, and even compensate him with a pile of gold and silver treasures.

Even Lu Chen himself was a little confused.

Eh?

no!

Your Majesty, why don't you play your cards according to the routine!

That's a prisoner! And there are several death-row criminals who were arrested and imprisoned for the crime of treason against the Demon Queen's remnant party in Great Xia!

Normally, shouldn't you first ask "the evidence is solid, why do you want to re-trial"?

What happened to your direct promise?

How can I answer the call with you like this? How to pat the chest to guarantee? How could he take advantage of the situation and propose to use everything including the official body as a guarantee for him?

For a moment, Lu Chen froze in place, not knowing how to respond.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that Lu Chen didn't respond, the empress asked calmly.

"Is there anything else Lu Aiqing wants to start?"

"Forehead"

Lu Chen came to his senses, but he didn't want to leave or stay.

The empress was so unexpected that she simply couldn't fix him all at once.

But life has to go on, and there is no time for him to think in reality.

"It's gone"

He responded with some dry lips, and was about to retreat.

Forget it, it's a pity that the appetizer is gone, but as long as it doesn't affect the main event later, it's fine.

The case is retried, but not released directly.

Wait until the court opens before performing.

But just when he thought so——

"Your Majesty can't!"

Accompanied by the eager obstruction, after Li Zheng, Xie Hongyun, Wang Zhi and others who had been beheaded, Lu Chen's good teammates finally showed up again.
