"My Lord, please be patient and calm down."

Although Shen Ruoyan didn't want to pay attention to this idiot, who made him the Marquis?

Just like when the emperor was incompetent and tyrannical in the past, she couldn't stand it, so could she replace him?

It is rare to see a female emperor in history books. The right time, right place and right people are all essential.

She thought that she did not have such great ability. Instead of forcing herself to gain such tremendous power, it would be better for her to make use of her strengths and work peacefully behind the scenes.

Just like now, Lu Jing appears to be the one in power in the Marquis' Mansion, but in fact, the person standing behind him is Shen Ruoyan!

"Song Er has failed in his duty, so naturally someone will investigate and judge his fault. Once his identity as a spy is confirmed, he will not be able to escape accountability no matter what." So Lu Jing didn't need to take action, because Song Er couldn't escape this time.

If it were in the past, Shen Ruoyan wouldn't care whether Lu Jing wanted to take revenge privately or publicly.

But this time, I can't do that!

Such a good opportunity will never come again, so you must not miss it!

"My Lord, you don't know. I once heard my grandfather say that the emperor dislikes those ministers who often criticize others. The more tolerant you are, the more favored you will be by the emperor."

Shen Ruoyan’s grandfather?

If these words really came from her grandfather, then they are indeed very credible.

"You mean that I should be tolerant and generous to Song Er and not care about his mistakes? In this way, I can leave a good impression on the emperor?" Lu Jing thought about the feasibility of this matter, but his brain capacity was limited and he really couldn't figure it out.

In the end, I could only ask blankly: "Is this okay?"

Shen Ruoyan: "My Lord, please believe me!"

Her eyes were sincere and her words were earnest, as if Lu Jing's disbelief would be like smashing her true heart into pieces!

"Okay, let me try..."

Lu Jing's attitude seemed hesitant, but Shen Ruoyan knew that he had listened to her.

To deal with someone like Lu Jing, you have to let him experience complete confidence, because he has no opinions of his own, so he will subconsciously avoid making choices.

If at this time, there is someone next to him, who is very sure and stands on his side, and helps him to come up with ideas.

Then, this person is the military advisor in his heart!

The previous Shen Ruoyan couldn’t do it, but that doesn’t mean the current Shen Ruoyan has no way.

Sure enough, the news soon spread that the person who stabbed Lu Jing and was captured that day was indeed a spy from the enemy country!

Not only that, they also found a simplified version of Shengjing topographic map on him - if this thing were to be circulated, who knows how much damage it would cause!

The emperor was furious. He ordered a thorough investigation and strictly controlled the entire Shengjing. Even if a fly flew in, its ancestors would have to be investigated!

And Lu Jing followed Shen Ruoyan's instructions and did not mention Song Er's dereliction of duty when the people from above came to investigate the situation.

He only said that he found the man suspicious and rushed up to him based on his intuition without thinking too much. He thought he was just an ordinary scoundrel, but he didn't expect that his martial arts skills were so high, which made him fall into the trap.

"Sir, I felt at the time that this person's identity was not ordinary. So I would rather risk my life to stop him." Lu Jing said it in a serious manner, and even his expression was in accordance with what Shen Ruoyan said, pretending to be relieved:

"Fortunately, no one escaped, otherwise, it would have become a disaster for our Dasheng!"

The official who came to investigate nodded and said, "My Lord is indeed the descendant of a military commander, loyal and courageous!"

He wrote all of these in, and even embellished them a bit, making sure that anyone who reads them will be moved by Lu Jing's selfless spirit.

Of course, he would never admit it, it was because of the bag of gold leaves that the wife of Marquis Changning stuffed into his pocket before he left.

Is he that kind of person?

"Ma'am, what did you give him just now?"

Lu Jing stuck his head out and saw everything clearly. He was a little unhappy. Although he was born in a marquis's mansion, every step he took was made by himself.

It’s not that he doesn’t know how to use these tricks, he just disdains them.

His thoughts were easier to guess than fish in clear water. Shen Ruoyan came over with a smile and did not hide anything. "I brought a bag of gold leaves for you. Although they are not worth much, they are a token of my appreciation."

As soon as Lu Jing frowned, Shen Ruoyan stretched out his finger and pressed it between his eyebrows, interrupting the spell.

"My Lord, I know you would not bother to do these things, because you have always been upright." Shen Ruoyan looked at him admiringly, as if he was looking at a hero, which made Lu Jing's shoulders stand up involuntarily.

But the next second, her tone changed and she sighed softly:

"But Lord, I am your wife, and what I care about most is whether you are doing well outside and whether you have been wronged. So, you can leave these things to me."

Shen Ruoyan smiled gently, like the early spring breeze, blowing on the face, making people feel warm but not hot.

"You don't have to do this." Lu Jing felt a little uncomfortable when he said this.

The tone was no longer as firm as before.

To put it bluntly, disdain just means that you don't want to do it yourself. If someone does it for you, why not do it?

Shen Ruoyan would not expose these little thoughts. For men, face is more important than life. Moreover, it is a man like Lu Jing who likes to find a sense of existence in women?

"But my lord, I won't feel at ease if I don't do this." Shen Ruoyan raised her head affectionately. Unknowingly, she had sat next to Lu Jing, slightly lower than him, and did not look aggressive at all.

"I just want to make the Marquis more satisfied, so please don't stop me."

Shen Ruoyan looked at him earnestly, the affection in her eyes full to the point of overflowing.

If Lu Jing was really a man of firm stance, he should have refused without hesitation. As he said, he was hurt, not stupid. Shen Ruoyan had hinted so clearly, did he really not know what Shen Ruoyan wanted to do?

He considered himself to be invincible in the officialdom, and he sneered at forming cliques and giving gifts to curry favor.

In this case, he should reject the plans his wife makes for him!

"Forget it. If you insist on doing so, then it's up to you." Lu Jing turned his eyes away, as if he was not looking into those watery eyes, as if he was unaware of these things.

He has always been good at deceiving himself and others.

"Anyway, I didn't ask you to do this..."

The sound was even lower than that of a mosquito. If Shen Ruoyan hadn't been close by, she would not have been able to hear it clearly.

She smiled gently, as if she couldn't tell what Lu Jing was really thinking, and said softly, "Yes, it's all my own plan, and it has nothing to do with the Marquis."

[You have taken all the benefits, you really don't want to suffer any loss! ]

But it’s okay, this is Lu Jing.

If he didn't do this, it would be troublesome...
