Chapter 31
Lu Yanchen avoided Ye Qinghuai's gaze, and said: "Wang Lisong has been a literary school for 20 years. The literary school is also run by the imperial court, and it is inextricably linked with the imperial court. The sacrificial wine is full of peaches and plums. It is not inconceivable that disciples are all over the court and involved in these cases."

Ye Qinghuai was still looking at him without speaking, as if waiting for him to say something.

However, Lu Yanchen just put Song Zhe's portrait in his sleeve, and said, "I will ask someone to find this person."

"Ask someone to look for it?" Ye Qinghuai squinted her eyes, she keenly caught Lu Yanchen's words.

"Your Majesty, I have come today, and I still have a petition to present to Your Majesty."

Lu Yanchen stood up from the desk, knelt down in front of Ye Qinghuai, took out a booklet from his arms and held it above his head.

Ye Qinghuai frowned slightly.

Lu Yanchen's appearance at this moment is exactly the same as when he forced her to abdicate in the hall in her previous life, and she couldn't help but recall memories of the past.

"What are you doing, sir? Why do you need to do such a big gift?"

Lu Yanchen knelt motionless and did not answer.

Knowing that he was stubborn, Ye Qinghuai didn't ask any more questions, got up and walked to him, picked up the booklet and started to read it.

After scanning a few lines hastily, she was stunned.

This petition was so familiar to her, Lu Yanchen wrote in the brochure that he would like to go back to his hometown, and he wanted to go back to Yunzhou and take a three-month leave.

In her previous life, she had also seen a similar book with minor differences.

But she was very dependent on Lu Yanchen at that time, so she rejected his petition.Only then did Lu Yanchen say that his father died of illness, and he wanted Ding You to return home.Dajing ruled the country with benevolence and filial piety as the first priority. Ye Qinghuai had no choice but to agree to his request, retained his official position, and allowed him to return to his hometown Ding You.

Seeing this brochure again now, Ye Qinghuai became suspicious.

If he, Lu Yanchen, really returned to his hometown, Ding You, why would he cover it up like this, and just write the invitation in the booklet.What's more, she only asked Lu Yanchen years ago. At that time, Lu Yanchen's father didn't show any signs of illness. In Lu Yanchen's words, he was "healthy".

Therefore, Ye Qinghuai said tentatively: "What if I don't allow it?"

Lu Yanchen was obviously very surprised, he unconsciously clenched the corner of his clothes with the hand hanging by his side, as if he was struggling in his heart, thinking about how to answer Ye Qinghuai's words.

Seeing his hesitation, Ye Qinghuai decided to give him a push, and said: "Nowadays the Six Departments are in turmoil and major cases are frequent. It is a time when I am short of people around me. At this moment, I cannot do without Mr. It's not good time, but it's okay to be later."

Sure enough, Lu Yanchen immediately played the request: "Your Majesty, there is a letter from home saying that my father has suddenly contracted a serious illness, and my minister...has to go back to his hometown, and I hope your majesty's quasi-chen will play it."

As soon as he said this, Ye Qinghuai almost confirmed his guess.

Lu Yanchen's real goal was to return to Yunzhou, not Ding You.Ding You just made up an excuse out of desperation because he didn't expect that Ye Qinghuai would not approve his three-month leave.

Ye Qinghuai looked at Lu Yanchen who was kneeling in front of him, knowing that he had made up his mind, and nothing he said would keep him.

But another doubt popped up in Ye Qinghuai's heart.

According to Ye Qinghuai's previous speculation, Lu Yanchen was most likely the one who tried to rescue Wang Lisong from prison, but now that Ye Qinghuai brought out Song Zhe, Lu Yanchen was indifferent and insisted on asking for leave, which is really weird.

Did he ignore Wang Lisong?

Ye Qinghuai immediately denied this idea in her heart.

Lu Yanchen has a stubborn temper. If sacrificial wine is so important to him that he can go to the prison for it, then he will not succeed in robbing the prison once, and he will never give up. There will be a second time.

the second time……

For a moment, a thought flashed through Ye Qinghuai's mind.Perhaps even returning to Yunzhou was just an excuse for him, what he really needed was time.

Ye Qinghuai was determined to test him again.

"Sir is my teacher, and your father is like my elder. Your father is seriously ill, and I am quite worried. In this way, I ordered the imperial physician Zhou Shouyi to go to Yunzhou with my husband, and we will leave today." After finishing speaking, Ye Qing When Huai picks up the pen, he must draw up the purpose.

"Your Majesty, my father is a businessman, how can he work so hard for the imperial doctor?" Lu Yanchen's voice was somewhat flustered.

"The common people know the truth of being a teacher for one day and being a father for life. What's more, I am the emperor. I have said that, the father of my husband is like my elders. It is the duty of an imperial doctor to treat my elders."

As he spoke, Ye Qinghuai drafted the imperial decree vigorously.

"Your Majesty, my father is seriously ill, I'm afraid it will be a few days..."

"Sir, be careful!" Ye Qinghuai interrupted him, his gaze was like a torch and said, "This is a great disobedience."

Lu Yanchen raised his head abruptly, and was looking at Shangye Qinghuai with cold eyes, like an ice knife, piercing through his lies.

Ye Qinghuai put down her pen, and asked slowly, "I'll ask Mr. again, is your father okay?"

Lu Yanchen lowered his eyes, remained silent for a long time, and replied, "It's fine."

"The old man is still alive, but Ding You, what about your filial piety?"

Lu Yanchen fell silent.

Seeing that he was silent, Ye Qinghuai closed his folder, went back to the desk and sat down, she looked at Lu Yanchen with a calm expression, and asked: "I know that Mr. has suffered unspeakably, I don't blame Mr. Mister may tell me, what is the purpose of returning to Yunzhou at this time?"

Lu Yanchen raised his eyes to look at her, his eyes were filled with worry, and finally he said: "There are some things, it is a blessing not to know."

Seeing that he refused to confess, Ye Qinghuai sighed, somewhat disappointed and said: "Sir, I can trust you. But what about Mr.? Can Mr. trust me?"

Lu Yanchen seemed to want to defend something under Ye Qinghuai's questioning, but he didn't say it in the end.He moved his eyes away and looked at the pot of Wenshan Qiuxiang placed in the corner of the desk.

Ye Qinghuai still looked at him, and after a while, she asked calmly: "Mr. is going to Jietian Prison again after taking leave this time?"
