"Tell me, why were the Shen family captured into the Imperial City Division for no reason?"

However, before Lin Hao could answer, Liu Wan continued:

"Did you know that because of this matter, Mr. Ke, Qi Zhongyong, Lin Sansi and others jointly came to the palace to buy a copy of your book?"

"But don't worry, I have already blocked this matter for you!" Liu Wan said, picking up a few memorials on the eucalyptus and playing with them, with a playful smile on her lips.

Lin Hao knew in her heart that Liu Wan was extending an olive branch to Lin Hao. If Lin Hao had the sense to join the party, she would have blocked this matter for Lin Hao.

But if Lin Hao didn't know what he was doing, these few ginseng recipes from Ke Xianggong and others in her hand would be immediately placed in front of Zhao Heng.

Liu Wan would even go to Zhao Heng's place to add fuel to the fire and let the officials deal with Lin Hao.

At this time, it was no longer a question of whether the Shen family would die, but a question of Lin Hao choosing his side.

I have to say that Liu Wan does have some political skills and good timing.

If Lin Hao was just an ordinary marquis, even if the Shen family was not wronged by him, they would not be able to withstand the two-sided attack by the Houdang and Qingliu.

Lin Hao will undoubtedly die by then, and the only way to go is to seek refuge with the Queen. But the problem is that Lin Hao is not an ordinary person, but Lin Hao has a brain.

So Lin Hao looked at Zuo and said:

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen accidentally got a painting some time ago. I think your Majesty will definitely like it!"

"Painting?" Liu Wan looked at Lin Hao doubtfully.

Now she was asking Lin Hao to choose a side, but what was Lin Hao talking about with her?

"Wait~!" Liu Wan suddenly thought of something.

Then Liu Wan's eyes narrowed, her eyes shrank slightly, and she stared at Lin Hao with a solemn expression and said word by word:

"Night~feast~picture~?"

"Yes, it's the night banquet picture that the officials asked me to check!" Lin Hao grinned.

After hearing Lin Hao's answer, Liu Wan's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and then he took a deep breath and said:

"Tell me about your conditions."

She is naturally aware of the rumors about her outside.

But she thought she hid it well and thought Zhao Heng didn't know her past, so she tried her best to hide it from Zhao Heng.

Little did they know that Zhao Heng knew everything about her past, and he was just pretending to be ignorant because he loved her.

But the problem is that Liu Wan doesn't know this. Naturally, he also heard about the emperor sending people to check the night banquet map, but the news she got was to ask people from the Imperial City Department to check.

But he didn't expect that the emperor secretly sent someone, but Lin Hao didn't seem to report the matter to Zhao Heng.

At this time, Liu Wan looked at Lin Hao, and suddenly her heart moved. If Lin Hao wanted to report it to the officials, he would have reported it before.

From what Lin Hao said, it seemed that the night banquet picture was still in Lin Hao's hands. Thinking of this, Liu Wan's breathing became a little rapid. The night banquet picture must not be handed over to Zhao Heng.

As long as you get the night banquet picture and destroy it, everything will be fine.

As Liu Wan expected, Lin Hao put forward a condition, but this condition made Liu Wan angry.

Just listen to Lin Hao say with great interest:

"Wei Chen heard that the Queen is a master of singing and dancing. I wonder if Wei Chen would be lucky enough to appreciate it?"

As soon as Lin Hao said this, Liu Wan could no longer hide the murderous look in her eyes, and said in a cold tone:

"Jing'an Hou, I didn't hear what you were saying clearly. Please say it again!"

The voice was bone-chilling, and for a moment it seemed as if the temperature of the entire royal study had dropped.

"Then just pretend that I didn't say anything!" Lin Hao took a sip of tea and said slowly:

"I heard that Mr. Ke is the leading painting appraiser in our dynasty. Tomorrow I will take this picture of the banquet to Mr. Ke for appraisal!"

"Do you dare to threaten me?"

"I don't dare!" Lin Hao said he didn't dare.

But there was no fear in that expression, and there was even a bit of eagerness to give it a try, as if he wished Liu Wan would not agree so that he could make things worse.

Liu Wan was so angry that no one had dared to threaten her for who knows how many years. Ever since she married the current official family who was the King of Shou.

Chapter 591: Ambush in the Royal Palace, Failure in Success

Chapter 592

Liu Mei looked at the queen who was angry with her. Liu Mei opened her mouth to say something, but the empress was furious.

If you tell him to go away, then let him go!

After Liu Mei took the rest of the people out of the side hall, she said to Lin Hao:

"Marquis Jing'an is so good at tricking me into fooling around!"

"The Queen is so grateful!" Lin Hao said nonchalantly.

"Tell me, why are you willing to hand over the real night banquet picture to me?"

"Alas~, if the Queen is not prepared to kill the ministers and silence them today, someone will hand over the real painting to the Queen early tomorrow morning!"

"What a pity!" Lin Hao sighed and said with a heartbroken look: "What a pity, what the empress did is really chilling!"

However, although Lin Hao's acting skills can't be faulted, Liu Wan doesn't believe a single punctuation mark of his lies.

As for Lin Hao's performance today, and how he remained calm and composed even when he knew there were soldiers ambushing him, he was even in the mood to tease himself.

She knew that even if she didn't intend to kill someone, Lin Hao wouldn't be able to hand over the real painting obediently. Liu Wan was always very confident about judging people.

Therefore, she dared to use Liu Mei's head as a guarantee that she would never guess wrong.

"Marquis Jing'an misunderstood." Liu Wanzhan said with a smile:

"I was just joking with you. You are the Marquis of the Song Dynasty. You are hereditary and divorced with the country. Who dares to kill you except for the serious crime of treason?"

"Even if I really kill you, I can't explain it to the civil and military officials of the court, can I?"

Tsk tsk, look at this woman telling lies with her eyes open. She lies without blushing. She is worthy of being a queen, that’s what she looks like.

"Please forgive me, the Queen, I am naturally timid and cannot make such a fatal joke!"

You dare to let me sing and dance for you, but you actually have the nerve to say that you are a coward, why are you so shameless?

Liu Wan didn't bother to beat around the bush, and directly set out her own conditions, advised the officials, and promoted Lin Hao.

However, no matter what Liu Wan said or what conditions he offered, Lin Hao just refused to let go.

Finally Liu Wan asked angrily:

"This won't work, that won't work either, so what do you want, Marquis Yue'an?"

"It's not that Wei Chen doesn't want to hand over the night banquet picture to the Queen, it's because Wei Chen is afraid, fearing that the Queen will kill someone and silence her!"

"I promise I won't kill you to silence you. If you don't believe me, you can swear to God!" Liu Wan immediately promised.

"Haha, Queen, do you believe in this oath thing?" Lin Hao said amusedly.

"Of course I am~!" Liu Wan wanted to say that she believed it, but under Lin Hao's joking eyes, she really couldn't go on. We are all smart people, who would believe such nonsense?

Well, she only believed in herself and didn't believe in any bullshit oaths at all.

But as a result, the conversation between the two fell into an endless loop.

Liu Wan wanted the night banquet picture, but Lin Hao refused to give it to her on the excuse that he was afraid that Liu Wan would kill someone and silence her.

Just when he was feeling impatient and about to lose control, Lin Hao suddenly said:

"Actually, Wei Chen has a way to get the best of both worlds."

"What can I do?" Liu Wan asked quickly.

"If we each get a fatal clue about the other, and once this clue is leaked, it will kill both of us at the same time!"

"In this way, Wei Chen can safely hand over the night banquet picture to the empress!"

After listening to Lin Hao's words, Liu Wan's eyes lit up at first, feeling that this was a good idea.

But Liu Wan quickly frowned:

"It's simple to say, but where can I find a handle that can kill both of us at the same time and allow the other party to seize it?"

"This is easy!" Lin Hao grinned and guided him:

"For example, if the minister and the empress do something at the same time, wouldn't it be enough if the officials find out about it, and Long Yan will be furious?"

"For example?" Liu Wan was puzzled, or maybe she didn't dare to think about it at all.

"Hehe~, it's just like this~!" Lin Hao laughed evilly, and finally took a step forward to hug Liu Wan into his arms.

"Presumptuous!" As a queen, she was held in the arms of a man other than the emperor, which made Liu Wan furious.

Then he tried to push Lin Hao away and said angrily:

"Marquis Jing'an, you are so brave, how dare you belittle me. Is this a serious crime of confiscating your family and exterminating your family?"

Although Queen Liu Wan's reaction was so big, Lin Hao didn't panic at all.

"Shh~!" Lin Hao raised an index finger and gently touched Liu Wan's lips and said:

"Queen, please keep your voice down, Lieutenant Liu and the imperial guards are still guarding the door! You don't want everyone to know about the two of us, right?"

As he spoke, Lin Hao pressed the queen against the wall and whispered in her ear:

"What if the officials find out~!"

Liu Wan's pretty face twitched when she heard this. The two of them clearly had nothing to do with each other. Why did Lin Hao say this as if they were having an affair?

It's just that the postures of the two of them are indeed easily misunderstood.

However, at this moment, Liu Mei, who had just been scolded by Liu Wan and was guarding outside the palace, heard her scolding and was about to push the door open and enter.

"Did something happen to your Majesty?"

"Is the Marquis of Jing'an being disrespectful to you? If he dares to be disrespectful to the Queen, I will chop him alive!" The guy said as he pushed the door open and entered.
