His Royal Highness, he is plotting against me

Chapter 47 Grow up
In the ruined temple,
Those who came back first were reporting their gains in the past two days to Master Xiaozhuang and Master Zheng.

"My lord, our team visited more than a dozen villages, large and small, near the east foot of Xiaonan Mountain, and no one was willing to testify."

"My lord, we are too. Those people in the nearby villages will change their expressions when they hear the word Baijiacun. They know that there is a problem, but those people shut us out!"

Zhuang Ming listened to his subordinate's report in silence, frowning in thought.

Master Zheng is also quite pessimistic about the current situation.

"Master Xiaozhuang, even if we know the situation of Baijia Village, there is no evidence to prove that it is related to the killing in the Lu family enclosure!"

The people who went to inquire about these fields also came back, and they made it clear that the lands in Baijia Village and Xiaonanshan did not belong to a certain family name, but were scattered in the hands of other villagers.

Except for some people whose faces changed when they heard this, others could even say without changing their faces that they didn't know what Baijia Village was, that was the land that their ancestors passed down from generation to generation.

"So Lu didn't take these lands as his own?"

This is not normal!
They now lack the critical chain in the middle that ties these things together.

"It's been three days, let's go see the magistrate of Mao County tomorrow!"

Lord Xiaozhuang said suddenly.

Mr. Zheng was stunned for a moment. Although he didn't think clearly, he should have understood a little bit.

According to the survivors of Baijia Village, the county magistrate of Mao County, and even the governor of Youzhou, were in the same boat as the Lu family.

But it is impossible for the county government to be unaware of all these things, whether it is land invasion or murder.

Searching for key witnesses among the villagers is the first priority, and the county government's search for clues is the best choice after the first method fails.

They came from Shangjing, and the strong dragon did not overwhelm the local snake.

So from the beginning, I thought about investigating secretly, but I still couldn't avoid these intricate local forces.

At this time,

Chen Zhuolin also came in with his younger brother.

What Zhuang Ming didn't expect was that the matter that they were still having a headache just now would have a new turning point so soon——

~~~

Shangjing,

The Taifu's mansion is still surrounded, the Lu family and his son are no longer in court, and the Lu family is still restricted from traveling.

It has been more than half a month since the people from Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice left Beijing, the undercurrents in the court were raging, Lu's cronies, and even Wang's took action to put pressure on the emperor.

The longer the time, the more the evidence could not be sent back, the louder the voice in the court about the pure slander of the prince.

Chen Fulin was also a little anxious.

Because she found that if Lu's affairs were not handled well, the Eastern Palace's affairs could not be handled properly.

In the end, only the branch of Qiao's family was found by the Criminal Division of Drug Cases of the Medical Administration, and this branch——

Coincidentally, she has a very good relationship with the second master of the Lu family, Lu Junyi's younger brother, Lu Junfeng.

Moreover, this branch of the Qiao family became an exclusive supplier of imperial medicine, and the Lu family also contributed.

But everyone who knows it knows that this second master of the Lu family is probably just a scapegoat.

However, Lu Shi and Wang Shi have nothing to do with each other, but secretly they are like dogs.

This time, if you can't hurt Wang Shi, you have to push Lu Shi down.

It's just poor Lu Liangyuan.

It's only been a few months since he entered the palace, and such a thing happened.

I don't know how she feels when she spends all day teasing the princess, but finally finds out that she has ended up like this.

Concubine Cui leaned on the beauty couch by the window, looked at the things that Eunuch Kang just sent piled up on the floor outside, and said sourly:
"Some people are really lucky. Sitting here every day, the tonics and rewards like flowing water are really enviable!"

Chen Fulin sat across from her, squinting his eyes and smiling.

She used to go to Changting Hall all the time, but after His Royal Highness the Prince knew about it, she wouldn't let her go.

What is said is that the health is not good and it is not suitable for labor.

But Cui Wan stayed with her for too long, it's strange not to see her for a long time.

If the mountain doesn't come, it's me. I can only go to the mountain by myself.

So it was Cui Wan's turn to come to Jiangfuxuan every now and then.

Now the Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace claims to be sick behind closed doors, and Concubine Yang is used to looking down on other people, but the sisterhood between Concubine Cui and Chen Liangdi is extraordinarily eye-catching.

"Sister Cui takes whatever she likes! What's mine is yours!"

Chen Fulin was not stingy at all, and spoke generously.

The prince did give her a lot of good things recently, some of which are useful to eat.

After all, they have just established a cooperative relationship, and her brothers are working for him, so it is okay to bribe her appropriately.

Cui Wan twirled a big cherry, looked at the delicate and beautiful fruit, and couldn't help but give her a blank look when she heard what she said.

"It's really drought to death, waterlogging to death!"

Chen Fulin cursed in his heart, what kind of drought or waterlogging.

If Sister Cui knew that she hadn't served the bed at all, I don't know how she would react...

Just wait, wait.

The booklets in His Majesty's study room are already piled high.

Some pleaded for the Taifu, and some participated in the Prince.

He couldn't help but ask his eldest son:

"Anu, when do you think your people will come back? I can't hold on here as a father!"

Those bad old men are older than him, not to mention older, and their temper is also older than him.

One by one, relying on the old to sell the old, with a high degree of proficiency.

You know how to bully honest people!
The prince, who was helping his old father to review the memorial with a calm expression, glanced over gloomyly when he heard the old father call him by his nickname again.

His Majesty the Emperor immediately changed his words: "Okay, okay, prince! Prince!"

"But to be honest, your father and I can't bear it anymore."

Wait a few more days, and those old guys will come to the imperial study room to "remonstrate to the death".

What are "cold lips and teeth", "sympathy for each other", "sorrow for the death of a rabbit", "cold heart"...

In short, what those people say is reasonable, but the courtiers and the people are squeezed out of their blood and sweat, and at the same time, they think that the family is superior to others, so they believe their nonsense!
The prince put down the papers that had been sorted, and brought the important ones in front of his father.

"The soldier talisman has already been given away. If people don't come back in three days, the emperor will depose the prince Gu."

emperor:"……"

Listen, what kind of rogue words can only be said by a jerk?

"Your father, I'm going all out with you this time. It's your boy who said he wanted to give me a big gift!"

The prince raised his eyes to look at his father, a little surprised: "That's right, my son joined the Grand Tutor in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu court. Is this gift not big enough? Father doesn't want it?"

His father twitched the corner of his mouth.

"I want it, I want it, but it's a gift from you...can you not put yourself in it?"

One prince, one Lu Shi.

He doesn't need to consider what is more important here.

The prince finally faced up to his father, he said in a deep voice:

"All of this must have a beginning, right?"

"You, imperial grandfather, great-grandfather, the efforts of three generations have weakened the aristocratic family to this point. The aristocratic family is not fair. Sooner or later, Dajing will return to the chaotic situation hundreds of years ago. You endured humiliation all your life and paved the way for your son and minister. Then, son What reason does the minister have, and what is the basis, to make false claims with those people again?"

"If you don't succeed, you will become benevolent!"

If he loses, the aristocratic family is bound to rebound strongly, and it is unknown that the world will change directly at that time.

But as long as he doesn't die, he will fight the family to the end in this life!
The aged emperor looked at the successor who stood in front of him without concealing his sharpness, the corners of his eyes were slightly red.

His son raised by himself.

I have grown up!
