Ah Si was about to step forward to stop Lu Lanjiang, but was scolded by Fu Chuji: "Don't come over! I owe all this to the Lu family."

Lu Lanjiang had never wanted to kill someone as much as he did at this moment. The overwhelming hatred almost made him lose his mind. Lu Lanjiang slowly lowered his raised fist, and suddenly seemed to have aged several decades. "I don't remember what the Lu family had done to the prime minister to make him hate us so much."

Fu Chuji: "General Lu was chased by the enemy and was later saved by a village doctor. I am the son of the village doctor."

"It's you!" Lu Lanjiang's eyes were filled with shock. "I was indeed sorry for what happened to your parents. If it weren't for me, they wouldn't have been killed. I felt so guilty that I kept looking for you, but I only heard the news that you fell off a cliff and died."

"General Lu, do you still remember this?" Fu Chuji took out a jade pendant from his sleeve.

Lu Lanjiang took it in his hand, examined it, and said, "At the time, I was penniless and was being hunted. I could only give the only valuable jade pendant I had to your parents to repay them for saving my life."

"I found this jade pendant in my mother's hand." Fu Chuji said, "For so many years, I have lived until now with hatred for you. I have been investigating the cause of my parents' death, and what I found out was that my parents' death was related to you. General Lu thought that my parents brought the enemy here and that my parents had rebelled, so he brutally killed my parents. My mother tore off the jade pendant that was close to General Lu during the fight. Later, General Lu was afraid that I would take revenge when I grew up, so he sent people to find my whereabouts in an attempt to silence me."

"I didn't do the things you mentioned." Lu Lanjiang said, "When I was looking for you, someone secretly obstructed me. When I found you, you had already fallen off the cliff."

"Yes." Fu Chuji laughed miserably, "It's all my fault. I will clear General Lu's name and pay the price for what I have done."

It was an old story, and Lu Lanjiang didn't want to pursue who should be blamed now. Lu Lanjiang sighed, "I hope Prime Minister Fu will hand over my son's body to me."

"I'm sorry." Fu Chuji said, "I follow my heart. He is the one who wants to be buried with me through life and death."

"Are you still human?" Lu Lanjiang was enraged. "There is no way my son will be with a man!"

"I want to follow my heart." Fu Chuji said.

Lu Suiyuan ran out from the inner hall and asked, "Dad, what happened that makes you so angry?"

Lu Lanjiang didn't know how to tell Lu Suiyuan that Lu Suixin was gone, so he just snorted: "Nothing."

Fu Chuji said: "General Lu, I'm sorry that you have to stay here for the time being. When I have settled everything, I will come to atone for my sins in person."

Fu Chuji investigated according to the evidence provided by Liang Yanlang. Lu Suixin's body was placed in the ice cellar by Fu Chuji, and he would go to see Lu Suixin every day.

Lu Suixin was playing games with Xiao H in the space. Xiao H's big screen showed Fu Chuji's picture: "Host, you are really as good as a god. The male protagonist really went to check."

Lu Suixin threw the game controller aside and said, "Whoever falls in love first loses. Losing my life in exchange for the lives of dozens of people in the Lu family is a good deal."

Fu Chuji requested to re-investigate the conspiracy between Lu Lanjiang, the Fourth Prince and the Queen. The Emperor was furious and ordered Fu Chuji to return to the palace to reflect on his mistakes. The reason why Fu Chuji and Zhang Zhiqiao were able to bring down the Fourth Prince so smoothly was that the Emperor did not like Lu Lanjiang's military power and was afraid that Lu Lanjiang would have other intentions. The Lu family has held a large number of troops for two generations. With the prestige of the Lu family in the army, if the troops belonging to the royal family finally surrendered to the Lu family, there would be endless troubles.

Secondly, the emperor did not like the queen. He now liked Concubine Ning, so naturally he also liked the Sixth Prince. If the throne was passed to the Sixth Prince instead of the Fourth Prince born to the Empress, the civil and military officials would definitely be unhappy and would stop the emperor's idea. Fu Chuji and Zhang Zhiqiao did everything well and finally handed the forged knife to the emperor. The emperor would definitely not let go of such a good opportunity.

Ah Si came over from outside. Fu Chuji put away the kite in his hand. Because he had touched it too many times, the edge of the kite had faded. "How is it going?"

Ah Si walked up to Fu Chuji and replied, "Everything has been arranged in the palace."

"Okay." The emperor was suspicious, and when people reach middle age, they start to think about the art of immortality once they feel powerless. If the people of the previous dynasty had been arguing about the issue of the crown prince, the emperor would definitely have doubts. Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will take root in his heart and eventually grow into a tree with luxuriant branches and leaves.

Fu Chuji was filled with regret every moment. He had indeed misunderstood Lu Lanjiang for so many years. When Concubine Ning saw that Fu Chuji was not crazy, but his martial arts skills were useless and his hair was all white, he was no longer the same as before, so she didn't care about him anymore.

What's more, when Fu Chuji told the emperor to reinvestigate the case of the General's Mansion, the emperor got very angry. Isn't this equivalent to asking the emperor to take back what he had said? It was hard for the emperor not to be angry at such a slap in the face.

Fu Chuji was secretly investigating what happened that year. Although he was in the mansion, everything was arranged by Fu Chuji.

Fu Chuji holds the collected evidence in his hand. No wonder the murderer has not been found out for so many years. It turns out that the murderer is right next to him. That's it!

Ah Si came over from outside and was about to go to Fu Chuji to report, but was stopped by the housekeeper standing at the door, "Don't go in yet, the master is angry."

There were sounds of things rustling in the study room. Ah Si and the housekeeper stood outside the door. No wonder Fu Chuji was angry. If he had not been misled by others, he would not have recognized the wrong enemy, and he would not have ended up like this with Lu Suixin.

When the noise inside gradually stopped, Ah Si knocked on the door and walked in. It was already a mess inside, and only the swallow kite in Fu Chuji's hand was still intact. Ah Si said, "My lord, the emperor suddenly fainted."

Fu Chuji: "Oh? Can you find out what the cause is?"

Ah Si: "We found aphrodisiac incense in Concubine Ning's palace. That incense is incompatible with the immortality elixir that the emperor has been taking recently."

"The Sixth Prince has coveted the throne for a long time." Fu Chuji said, "It's time to let the emperor know about this."
