Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Chapter 764 The troublemaker is here
But this also speaks to everyone's feelings. In the eyes of everyone, Lu Baichuan is a villain. He only used insidious means behind his back to make the emperor and prince protect them like this. Otherwise, who would be promoted so quickly!
On the other side, Lu Baichuan had followed the prince out of the hall. The prince was very angry and cursed along the way.

"These old stubborns just don't have any brains. They take advantage of their age and don't do anything serious all day long, so they rely on their old age to show off! Usually I always think of giving them a little less, but I didn't expect them to go too far!"

"I thought that this time you uncovered so many details that they would change their opinion of you, but I didn't expect that the prejudice would become even bigger."

The prince kept saying that the eunuchs who followed him wished that he was deaf. If this was spread by someone with intentions, and if His Highness the prince were to pursue the case later, they would surely be blamed for their death!

In contrast, Lu Baichuan was much calmer and said: "The Qing Dynasty will be Qing Dynasty. Your Highness does not need to worry about it. Moreover, the scientific examination results will be out soon. Your Highness should take the opportunity to cultivate more talents for your own use."

The prince nodded: "I understand that I personally keep an eye on the scientific examination matters. By the way, how do you want to deal with Zhuo Jiayu's matter?"

"I'll lock you in for a few more days and see where the limits of Duke Mu's mansion are."

Lu Baichuan had already planned it. Anyway, he was in charge of the prison now, and it wouldn't be easy for anyone to come.

"Do you still suspect that Duke Mu has contact with Dongting?"

The prince didn't believe it. After all, Mu Guogong didn't look like someone with that kind of mind.

Lu Baichuan did not answer directly, but just smiled and said: "How will you know if you don't try?"

"That's right. You can do whatever you want. If those old stubborns come to trouble you later, I will help you put them down. However, Duke Mu's Mansion may come to trouble you, so be careful."

The prince naturally believed in Lu Baichuan, so he would not be swayed no matter what others said.

This friendship was cultivated by them during each other's most difficult times.

Lu Baichuan nodded and said: "Your Highness, don't worry, I won't make it too difficult for Your Highness."

The prince was able to eliminate the prejudices of those courtiers and still trust his judgment. He was already very happy in his heart.

In fact, he has been suspicious of Mu Guogong's residence for a day or two. He has recently been asking Lou Chong to investigate what happened back then. As a result, Lou Chong discovered something very strange.

Mingze has been secretly suppressing Mu Guogong's Mansion these years. Mu Guogong's Mansion has indeed suffered some decline, but it has been able to remain standing. This is very abnormal.

At first, he thought Mingze was deliberately boiling frogs in warm water and slowly tormenting the Duke of Mu's house, but later he discovered that there was something else hidden.

Every once in a while, the situation in Mu Guogong's mansion will improve. In other words, someone will keep sending him money.

Moreover, the money was still the income from the shop under the name of Mu Guogong, but Lou Chong went to check and found that the shop was not profitable at all. It could not have so much income, which could only prove that someone was secretly giving money to Mu Guogong. The government sends money.

Who it is is currently unknown.

At that time, Lu Baichuan did not connect Mu Guogong's mansion with the Dongting people. It was not until Zhuo Jiayu started to find excuses to get close to him some time ago and took the opportunity to visit the Dongting people many times that Lu Baichuan began to have doubts.

Although there was no evidence that he was from Dongting, Lu Baichuan suddenly thought of what the third prince had said before, that his wife was the child of Dongting, and the connection was made instantly.So, his wife who was found out before may be the daughter of King Xun, and now it is said that she is the daughter of Dongting people. In other words, it is very possible that King Xun is from Dongting?

When Lu Baichuan first had this idea, he thought it was impossible. After all, King Xun was the old emperor's younger brother. According to the official statement, the reason why he was exiled was because he had the intention of treason. However, the old emperor took face into consideration and did not make it public, so No one in the world knows the specific reason.

Now it seems that it is very likely that it was discovered that King Xun and Dongting were colluding, or that King Xun was pretending to be a Dongting person, which led to the exile.

However, if these speculations are true, then the old emperor was too kind.

That's why so many disasters have arisen.

When those things happened, the prince was still young, so he probably didn't know everything comprehensively, unless he asked the senior ministers who were involved in the matter, or directly asked the old emperor.

However, although the relationship with the old emperor is not bad now, he would not directly ask others for such secrets. That would be taking himself too seriously.

Of course, if his wife asks, the old emperor may be willing to talk, but if he doesn't want his wife to do everything, then he is too useless.

After coming out of the palace, Lu Baichuan went directly to the cell, only to see his servant waiting anxiously at the door. When he saw him coming, he hurriedly came up to him and said, "Sir, it's not good. Mrs. Zhuo from Duke Mu's Mansion sent someone early in the morning. I went to the house to make a fuss, but the younger one said that the masters were not here, and she took people to the military camp to make trouble again. Uncle Huang was worried that the madam would not be able to deal with it, so he asked the younger one to come and tell me."

The prince had just said in the palace that people from Duke Mu's mansion would look for trouble, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.

Lu Baichuan responded, turned his horse's head and headed towards the military camp.

Although he knew his wife could solve it, he couldn't turn a blind eye.

As for the military camp, Mrs. Yan has brought a group of servants to make a fuss outside.

However, Mrs. Yan was still concerned, but she didn't make the fuss too ugly. She just insisted on seeing He Jiuniang.

Yes, after standing outside all morning, I still haven't been able to see He Jiuniang because the soldiers said that their sister-in-law was still sleeping and no one dared to disturb her.

Yan wanted to break up several times, but thinking about the current power of the Lu family and her master's explanation, no matter how anxious or angry she was, she could only grit her teeth and wait.

By the time He Jiuniang woke up and slowly came out after breakfast, Yan and a group of people had been standing outside for more than an hour.

"It's the Duke's wife. How did you find yourself here?"

When He Jiuniang came out, she was still holding a piece of fruit in her hand and chewing it. Her posture was very leisurely and relaxed, and she could make Mrs. Yan half angry to death as soon as she opened her mouth.

Yan gritted her teeth, but still put on a smile and stepped forward and said, "Mrs. Lu, we have all heard about what happened last night. My little girl got into trouble in prison. All the mistakes she made are her fault, but I don't care. For the sake of causing such a big mistake, please ask Mrs. Lu to help you intercede with General Lu and let the little girl go!"

Saying that, before He Jiuniang could speak, Mrs. Yan began to wipe her tears and said: "That child has been spoiled by us since she was a child. She has no bad intentions. She was just deceived. Madam, please consider that she is about your age." Come on, help me. She has never suffered anything since she was a child, but she is locked up with those craftsmen. She doesn’t know what kind of fear she is. As a mother, I feel bad just thinking about it..."
