One touch and one silence

Nanzhi hesitated even more, she found it difficult to speak!

She decisively changed the subject, "Do you think the imperial concubine will take any action after the second prince's wedding?"

I don’t know how Zhao Shanshan is doing.

I'm afraid it won't be long before she reaches the age to choose a prince consort.

I don't know how the imperial concubine, as a mother, chose a prince consort for her. Was it for her son's future as a bargaining chip for marriage? Or was she out of pity for her daughter and wanted to be a good mother and make plans for her sincerely?

Liu Yue responded to Nan Zhi's words in a calm tone, "Whether the Second Prince gets married or not, the Imperial Concubine has not stopped her actions."

Nanzhi raised her eyebrows, she felt that Liu Yue’s words seemed to have a hidden meaning.

Could it be that Liu Yue knew something that she didn't know?

"for example?"

"The imperial concubine is trying to please His Majesty and sends him some soup from time to time."

"The Second Prince is not bad either. He brought all those people who trained with him to his side. They became his power and are now working for him."

This made Nanzhi confused. What could a group of kids aged twelve or thirteen do?

The biggest ones are those three, right?

"Really? What can a group of kids do?"

"If there's anyone in the world that's most vulnerable to attack, it's children!"

"Many of those people have already infiltrated the homes of ministers in the court."

Nanzhi put down the snacks in her hand and walked up to Liuyue in confusion.

"No! Yueyue, how do you know so clearly?"

"And your people?"

Liu Yue looked at the angry look on the master in front of him and burst out laughing.

"What is your Majesty thinking?"

"Liu Yue's master told me."

Nanzhi:? ? ?

"In other words, every move of the imperial concubine is under the control of my cheap father?"

Liu Yue nodded, "If nothing unexpected happens, yes." Originally, she just wanted to find out about the things in the palace. She couldn't really be a person who turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside. Her master was not there, but Lingyi, his subordinate, told her some things.

Nanzhi quickly understood. No wonder his stepfather was reluctant to give him even a single man. It turned out that all his efforts were spent on protecting his son.

"Since the Second Prince has it, does the Crown Prince have it too?"

"I think so!" She only knew that it existed before, but she didn't know whether it existed now.

Nanzhi suddenly fell silent when he heard this. It seemed that the emperor suspected everyone!

"Then is there any beside me?"

Liu Yue: ????

If we say that there were some at the beginning, then that is for sure, because those people were them.

But now she definitely doesn't feel that way. Firstly, she didn't feel it. Secondly, a prince without a future is still a princess at heart. What is there to be wary of?

When the emperor had doubts before, he had already tried it countless times.

Nanzhi heard that no one was watching her, that was fine. She didn't like being watched.

"but!"

Liu Yue thought about it and decided to tell his master.

"Your Majesty knows that you pretended to be an old Taoist priest and told fortunes for others."

Nanzhi:……

Hearing this, Nanzhi immediately wanted to scold his cheap father.

Hey!

It seems that it is impossible to keep any secrets in the Daling Dynasty.

its not right!

"You said your cheap father is so powerful, so there's no way he doesn't know about the Zhuo family's affairs?"

"You said that your master's visit to Jiangnan was intentional by that person, right?"

Liu Yue looked at his master who had finally figured it out, and his eyes were full of admiration.

Nanzhi: ????

Damn it!

At first, she was only six points suspicious, but she didn't expect that she would actually guess it right.

She was still too naive. Thinking of this, and recalling that she had asked him for the person but he refused to give him to her, she had to seek help from outside to resolve the issue.

wrong!

"foreign aid!"

Nanzhi's face darkened.

The first person she thought of was Cheng Feng.

At the beginning, the emperor refused to give her someone else. Prince Yu met Cheng Feng and the soldiers, so...

"Is Cheng Feng okay?"

Nanzhi asked worriedly.

"It's not a big deal, just downgraded two levels!" Liu Yue said calmly, as if it was no big deal.

"what?"

"Two levels?"

Nanzhi was stunned.

"No, isn't this all about working for that old guy, the Emperor?"

"It's fine if he doesn't give the person, but your master relied on personal connections to find someone to help, and he still punishes them? That's too much!"

Two levels!

But she knew that these people had sacrificed their lives on the battlefield, and because of this, they were demoted. Nanzhi felt extremely guilty.

She thought it would be at most a salary deduction, so she compensated those people with a lot of money. How could she have known it would be so serious.

Liu Yue couldn't help but find it a little funny when he saw his master's overreaction.

"Your Highness, don't worry. The two people around General Yu are not people who care about power!"

"When Marshal Yu was replaced by the Prince of Zhennan, the two of them resigned and left. This shows what kind of people they are."

Liu Yue’s words did not comfort Nanzhi.

That was someone else's choice, but she did implicate others. Thinking of this, Nanzhi was filled with anger.

"No, I have to write a letter to my father and ask him to revoke his decision."

Liu Yue shook her head to stop Nan Zhi's action.

"Your Majesty, you should know that if a general leaves the border without permission, the consequence is a death sentence!"

"Your Majesty has already shown mercy by demoting him by two ranks for your sake and not chopping off his head."

Liu Yue’s words stunned Nanzhi.

She didn't really understand this, although she knew those people in her previous life, they...

That one suddenly felt a little guilty.

In her previous life, all she needed was the leader’s approval, but she didn’t expect this.

Nanzhi's tone was full of helplessness and frustration.

"Is Marshal Yu okay?"

Liu Yue smiled and stroked Nanzhi's hair soothingly, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, His Majesty just scolded us, it's nothing!"

What she didn't say was that the emperor had given Yu Qinglin an oral order not to allow his people to help his master. The reprimand was also because Yu Qinglin had taken down the Great Saint Dynasty. Punishing him at this time would make the emperor appear to be a mean and ungrateful person.

She also didn't say that the emperor wanted to test what other tricks her prince had.

By now, the emperor knows all that he should know about these things. The prince's health is gradually deteriorating, so even if there is something, the emperor will not have any other thoughts.

otherwise.....

Nanzhi felt a little aggrieved. These people were implicated because of her. She was clearly solving the problem for the emperor. In the end, the job was done, the money was given to him, and the people she brought were punished.

It's too much!

"My Lord, there is no order without rules!"

"Everything must be done within the prescribed scope. General Cheng will be fine. Before he came, he knew clearly what kind of punishment he would receive."

"Liu Yue reminded him of this when he first met him, but he said it didn't matter, and that he helped thousands of soldiers to thank you. It was you who gave them food to eat."

"Your Highness, don't blame yourself!"

Nanzhi felt even worse!

They took the risk and came even though they knew what they were facing.

In fact, she didn't have to wipe out the Zhuo family so quickly, but she couldn't bear to see those innocent people continue to be persecuted.
