Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 173: No one believes in taking the blame and telling the truth
Fan Jian, who thought he had figured out the truth, was extremely angry at this time. What on earth is the eldest princess going to do?I really think I am easy to bully!
Because he was very angry, he did not see the change in his daughter's expression. By the time Fan Jian thought of his daughter, Ruoruo had already sorted out her expression.

"Okay Ruoruo, don't worry about this matter. Take a good rest these days. If you have nothing to do, don't go out. Okay, you can go back." Fan Jian comforted him.
After hearing this, Ruoruo left the study in despair. Fan Jian saw it and thought it was his daughter who was frightened, so he became even more angry.

So he decided not to be patient anymore and planned to go directly to the palace to ask for an explanation. At this time, Ruoruo had already returned to his room.

After closing the door, she couldn't bear it any longer, and tears started flowing down her face. She never expected that Yan Que's so-called treatment would actually be to silence him?

It can be said that these people died because of her, so she felt very guilty at this time. In a daze, she suddenly thought of something.

So she hurriedly called her personal maid in, and after giving detailed instructions, she was completely relieved. At this time, she lay down directly on the bed.

At this time, she finally thought about the whole story. From the beginning, she fell into Yan Que's trap, falling deeper into it step by step, and was finally caught?

Thinking of her previous naivety, she felt extremely ridiculous, and she actually thought it at the beginning.It's ridiculous to think that you can scheme against the Grandmaster on your own.

At this moment, she suddenly thought that Zhuangzi's silence might be a warning to herself.

When she thought of this possibility, she felt a cold air pass through Tianling, and then she felt chills all over her body. He was terrible, he was really terrible.

Only then did she truly realize what kind of person she was being targeted. She had a vague hunch that what Si Lili said might come true.

After all, he is a great master. If he really wanted it, His Majesty would probably give him the entire harem, and he might really have no solution.

When she thought of this, she couldn't help but feel a little desperate, and she also had some thoughts of giving up on herself. If it was really possible, it seemed good, after all, he was still very powerful.

Ruoruo was quickly startled by her own thoughts. How could she think so?Then he immediately blushed, feeling ashamed of his thoughts.

Just when Ruoruo was thinking wildly, Fan Jian had already entered the palace and appeared in the imperial study. At this time, in addition to him and Emperor Qing, Chen Pingping also arrived in the imperial study.

"It's better since you're here. Who did what happened to Zhuangzi? Don't tell me. Your inspection agency doesn't know!" Fan Jian said directly.
"Don't be anxious. I just reported to Your Majesty that although the corpses were all burnt, after inspection by our forensic institute, we found that the people who did it were very skillful. At first glance, it was done by experienced hands," Chen Pingping said.

"What? Veteran, although my place is just a Zhuangzi, there are also some veterans of the Tiger Guard there. What kind of veteran can wipe them all out and leave no one alive?" Fan Jiandao
"Okay, stop being so secretive and tell him quickly. If you don't tell him, then I won't get involved and you two will solve it on your own." Emperor Qing suddenly said
"It's your Majesty. There are a lot of people in Zhuangzi. If you want to destroy them all, you need a lot of people. Among the large group of people who left Kyoto yesterday, the only ones who meet the requirements are the garrison divisions." Chen Pingping said directly

"What? A garrison division? How could it be a garrison division? This, Your Majesty, I sincerely ask your Majesty to make the decision for me." After hearing this, Fan Jian immediately bowed and saluted.
After getting this answer, Fan Jian almost concluded that this must be Li Yunrui's handiwork. After all, the current defense division is different from the past.

To be disrespectful, the current garrison division is that person's private army. If that person doesn't nod his head, no one can even think of mobilizing a single soldier.

There are only one person in the world who can make that person nod, and the only one who has the motive to do so is the eldest princess.

Obviously, he was not the only one who thought so, but Emperor Qing and Chen Pingping also thought so. After all, it could only be Li Yunrui's handiwork.

"Come on, tell Li Yunrui to come see me!" Emperor Qing's voice was deep and strong, and he was obviously angry.

After all, what happened this time was too much. Fan Jian was one of his own, and he followed him when he lurked in the residence. Now Li Yunrui dared to touch him!

But this was Li Yunrui, who was still confused. After all, what did Hao Duanrui ask her to do? The most important thing was that she asked about it, but Eunuch Hou didn't say anything.

She quickly understood that this was a big trouble. Yes, Eunuch Hou didn't say anything, but he said everything. This was the tacit understanding between the two.

And just as she expected, as soon as he arrived at the Imperial Study Room, Emperor Qing said angrily, "Kneel down!"

Li Yunrui did not hesitate at all, but knelt down directly. Seeing that Li Yunrui was so happy, Emperor Qing said directly, "Tell me, why are you doing this, and what do you want to do!"

"Your Majesty, my sister, I wonder what my sister has done? To make your majesty so angry? I hope your majesty will make it clear." After hearing this, Li Yunrui could only bite the bullet and ask.

Faced with Li Yunrui's attitude, Emperor Qing became even more angry, so he asked, "You're not going to say it yet, are you? Remind her and help her recall the good things she did!"

After hearing this, Chen Pingping first cupped her hands, and then said, "Your Highness, Fan Shangshu was burned to the ground in Zhuangzi in the east of the city, and no one was left alive."

"And the only large group of people who left the city yesterday were the garrison divisions."

"What? Dean Chen, you mean that I had Fan Shangshu's Zhuangzi burnt?" Li Yunrui understood now that this was what happened.

"Your Majesty, I am wronged. This matter has nothing to do with my sister. I hope your Majesty will investigate clearly." He did not do it himself, so of course Li Yunrui immediately distanced himself from the relationship.

After hearing this, Emperor Qing ignored her at all and motioned for Chen Pingping to continue talking.

"Your Highness, I haven't finished what I said. The person who led the garrison troops out of the city yesterday was none other than Zhao Wen of Pingyuan Marquis Mansion. Your Highness, is there anything else you want to say?" Chen Pingping asked.

"This, this, Your Majesty, I really know nothing about this matter." Li Yunrui was dumbfounded. She finally knew why she was suspected.

Yan Que was so good that he suddenly mobilized people to burn down the Fan family's village. This didn't look like Yan Que's style, but it looked like hers.

He couldn't wash himself away by jumping into the river now, and Emperor Qing completely exploded because he refused to acknowledge Li Yunrui's death. "You don't know, you don't know. Li Yunrui, do you really think that I can't do anything to you? Come on, call me Pingyuan Hou!" Emperor Qing said angrily.
The faces of everyone present changed after hearing this, because even if Yan Que came, the result would still be the same and there would be no change.

The reason why Li Yunrui asked Yan Que to take action was because he wanted to put an end to the matter. After all, you can't deal with the Grand Master just because of a mere Zhuangzi, right?
And when Yan Que learned that His Majesty had summoned him, he didn't waste a moment. He didn't even wait for the officials. He flew over directly and landed in front of the palace gate.

Then he entered the palace directly, and then walked to the imperial study. After a while, he arrived at the imperial study, and then Yan Que's voice came into the imperial study.

Hearing Yan Que's voice, everyone in the imperial study was a little unbelievable, but since everyone was here, there was no need to worry so much.

"Marquis Pingyuan, I ask you, do you know that Fan Aiqing was burned in Zhuangzi in the east of the city?" Emperor Qing said
"Your Majesty, of course I know, because that's what I asked you to do." Yan Que said
After hearing Yan Que's straightforward answer, Emperor Qing was convinced of his suspicions, and the same was true for Fan Jian and the others. What they were worried about still happened.

As expected, Marquis Pingyuan didn't hesitate at all and admitted it directly. But unlike the three of them, Li Yunrui was much more depressed at this time.

After all, when Yan Que said this, the matter was confirmed. She didn't think she could even sit down. Now she had experienced what it means to be unable to argue.

At this time, Emperor Qing said, "Huh? Did you do it? Then my dear, you might as well tell me, why did you do this? What is it for?"

"Well, Your Majesty, the reason why I did this is to take revenge on Fan Xian. Yes, that's right, just to take revenge on Fan Xian." Yan Que thought for a while and said

Seeing Yan Que's poor acting skills in front of them, Emperor Qing and the others couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths. They really didn't take them seriously and couldn't even pretend to be nice.

"Marquis Pingyuan, you said you wanted to take revenge on Fan Xian. If that's the case, why did you burn the village, or did you burn it while the daughter just left?"

"Aren't you going to take revenge on Fan Xian? Why did you attack that little girl?" Emperor Qing asked
"This, this, your majesty, there is a problem with my intelligence, a misjudgment." Yan Que said
"That's enough! Yan Que, how long are you going to keep acting for me! I don't want to know what's going on right now, I just want people to be responsible now!" Emperor Qing yelled.
After hearing this, Yan Que's expression changed, he glanced at his mother-in-law cryptically, then clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to accompany the envoy to the Northern Qi Dynasty, and I hope that your Majesty will do it."

After hearing this, Emperor Qing's face instantly regained his composure. He was considering the pros and cons of this. His Majesty's appearance also made Fan Jian's heart sink to the bottom.

Because based on his understanding of His Majesty, he knew that His Majesty was tempted, and it would be difficult for him to get an explanation today.

As expected, Emperor Qing soon said, "Marquis Pingyuan, in this case, let's let this matter go, but please remember it for me, I don't want it to happen again!"

"Yes, I obey the order." This drama has been played out to this point, so naturally I hurriedly stopped.

After hearing this, Emperor Qing said, "Okay, that's the end of the matter. Chen Pingping stays, and everyone else can leave!"

After hearing this, Fan Jian could only leave unwillingly, and Li Yunrui was also unwilling. After all, she had no knowledge of this matter from beginning to end.

But under this situation, this matter was firmly pinned on his head. The only thing he could confirm was that he was plotted by Yan Que.

At the same time, Yan Que naturally followed his mother-in-law and headed towards Guangxin Palace. At this time, Emperor Qing and Emperor Qing began to plot again.

"Your Majesty, I'm worried that if Marquis Pingyuan goes with him and these ghosts and monsters hide, it will be counterproductive," Chen Pingping said.

"Well, I have considered this issue just now, but there are pros and cons to this kind of thing. The reason why I let you plan it for so many years is because you can't break the situation."

"But it's different now. Facts have proved that even without a temple, you can still break through the Grand Master. If this is the case, then why spend such a high price?"

"Even if Yan Que breaks through by chance, the advantage is still on our side. With Ye Liuyun, Wu Zhu, and Yan Que, the balance no longer exists."

"Let Yan Que follow him to Northern Qi this time, just in time to give Ku He a try. After all, so many years have passed, and no one knows how he is doing now."

"After all, Wuzhu's test is of little significance. Besides, this time it can also shock Beiqi. It's the best of both worlds. Compared with these, a Sean is insignificant." Emperor Qing said
After hearing this, Chen Pingping did not speak, but nodded gently. At the same time, things did not go so smoothly for Yan Que.

At this time, Yan Que and his mother-in-law were sitting opposite each other. Li Yunrui said, "Okay, Xiao Que, let's talk about it. Why did you do this? Do you know the consequences of doing this?"

"Your Highness, the reason why I have to do this this time is because I have no choice but to use this method to investigate the temple without arousing your Majesty's suspicion." Yan Que said
"What? What did you say, Xiaoque? Did you mean the temple?" Li Yunrui said in surprise.

"Yes, Your Highness, it is the temple. I accidentally learned that Fan Xian's mother and Wu Zhu came from the temple, and the secret books used to break through also came from the temple."

"And the only people in the world who know where the temple is are Sean and Ku He. Ku He's defense is unparalleled in the world, and I am really not sure that I can break through his defense."

"So if you want to know the location of the temple, you can only find a way from Xiaonian. Since Xiaonian has been imprisoned in the Inspection Institute for so many years, it is obvious that Chen Pingping still doesn't know where the temple is."

"And this so-called mission to Northern Qi must not be that simple. Your Majesty and Chen Pingping must have some plan, and it must be related to the temple."

"As for the relationship between me and Fan Xian, if I rashly mention going to Northern Qi together, I'm afraid it will arouse suspicion, so I can only make this decision and hope that your highness will forgive me." Yan Que said
"Well, that's it. Since everything happened for a reason, forget it. But remember, Xiaoque, we are a family. Is there anything we can't discuss?" Li Yunrui said.

"It's Your Highness, I know. In fact, the reason why I didn't tell you this time is because I was afraid that Your Majesty would see the clues. I promise there will never be a next time." Yan Que said quickly.
"Well, okay, now that we've said it, let's go back quickly so as not to worry Wan'er." Li Yunrui nodded.
