What a good plan...

If my mother lost her life because of this, the "bandits" in the prison would definitely hold on to the Beishan camp.

At this point, he must have hated General Su and the rest of his father's troops who were about to go to the Beishan camp.

From then on, he could only be the knife in Emperor Zhaoding's hand.

Unfortunately, nothing happened to my mother.

Now, his father's former subordinates couldn't stand his notoriety and took out their anger on his mother, which led to the bandit incident.

He also issued the oral order.

After the "mountain bandit" incident, his father's former subordinates were really about to disappear.

This also tells everyone that they have to think carefully when they want to mention his father, Prince Jing, in the future.

What made him most angry was the execution.

As the prince of Prince Jing, he had to sit on the execution platform in person and witness with his own eyes the people under his father's command losing their lives.

No matter whether these people are real former subordinates of Prince Jing or fake, what does it matter?

After tomorrow, I'm afraid his infamy will be even worse.

This is to put him in an irretrievable situation.

So what if that’s the case?

Ever since he put on the Jinyiwei's Feiyu uniform, he knew the situation he would face.

His reputation has already become so bad that he doesn't care about any of this.

As long as I can avenge my father, what does all this matter?

Lu Jinan said nothing, and walked quickly out of the palace with a gloomy face.

Xu Yuan, who was waiting outside the city gate, saw his expression and did not dare to ask more questions.

No one would smile after something like this happened.

The two men rode their horses towards the Lu Mansion.

Late at night, Beishan Camp.

A black figure flashed into the commander-in-chief's tent in the center, which was guarded by a number of tents.

Almost at the moment the visitor entered the tent, Su Wu stood up, picked up the big knife beside him, and chopped towards the door.

"Uncle Wu, it's me." Lu Jinan used all his internal strength to block Su Wu's knife.

Upon hearing this, Su Wu quickly restrained his strength.

He held the broadsword with one hand, knelt on one knee and said, "Su Wu pays respect to the prince."

Lu Jinan walked forward and helped Su Wu up, tearing off the black cloth covering his face. In the dim tent, his eyes were as bright as the moon in his arms.

"Uncle Wu, please get up quickly."

Su Wu put down the sword in his hand and asked, "My Lord, are you here for the matter of the "mountain bandits"?"

Lu Jinan nodded and said, "Are those people really from my father's old department?"

"Yes. I checked, and he is indeed one of the prince's old subordinates, but he is not the prince's confidant. A few days ago, Hu Hou instigated him behind the scenes, so he became a pawn." Su Wu replied.

"In that case, it wouldn't be a pity to die." The young man's cold voice sounded in the dark night.

Su Wu nodded and said, "Thanks to the prince for delivering the message a few days ago, otherwise, if I had made a move yesterday, I would have been criticized immediately."

A few days ago, in the middle of the night, he suddenly received a note with only four big words on it: Keep quiet.

There were secret symbols on the note, which were used by Prince Jing to communicate with several close confidants when he was alive.

Although he didn't know why the prince said this, he believed that there must be a reason.

Sure enough, I escaped a disaster.

"I'm afraid Lord Ling has already known that we have discovered Hu Hou, so he acted in advance to catch us off guard." Lu Jinan said with deep eyes.

"Your Highness is right." Su Wu bowed.

Then he asked, "How is the princess? Is she injured?"

"Uncle Wu, don't worry. Mother is fine."

"That's good. They are so despicable that they use the princess as a raft." Su Wu said angrily.

"It was my negligence. I originally thought they would wait until the anniversary of my father's death to attack me, but I didn't expect Elder Ling to be so perceptive."

"Uncle Wu, I took the risk to come here this time to tell you that there will be more and more tests like this in the future, so we should try not to contact each other again. Let them train in the barracks with peace of mind. I will need them one day." Lu Jinan looked at Su Wudao.

He knew that he shouldn't be in the Beishan camp today.

But he had to come.

He didn't care how the world judged him, but he couldn't let his father's loyal followers down.

Su Wu hurriedly bowed and replied, "Yes, Prince."

"Don't touch Hu Hou for now, and be careful of the other people around him. If there is an emergency in the future, go to the old place." After Lu Jinan gave the order, he slipped out of the tent.

Su Wu looked at the disappearing Lu Jinan and felt deeply relieved.

After the court session the next day, when Emperor Zhaoding's oral order reached the army, everyone was shocked.

Who is Prince Jing?

He is the god of war that every brave man in Dayong wants to become.

There were actually people who were willing to take on the heavier punishment and ran to the camp of Commander Su Wu to cause trouble, saying that the Prince of Jing was not worthy of being the son of Prince Jing.

General Su seemed to agree with them and showed mercy when punishing them.

When Wang Fuquan reported the matter to Chengqian Palace, Emperor Zhaoding was busy reviewing memorials.

He had no expression on his face after hearing this, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry. His men did not stop their movements, as if they did not care about this at all.

Ningyang Marquis Ling Xiaoling was sitting behind a rosewood desk, looking at the burning letters in front of him, as if he was thinking about something.

Ever since that kid Lu Jinan went to Fujian and came back, he has been roasted on the fire every day.

Now, let him have a taste of this.

When it comes to understanding Emperor Zhaoding's mind, he is second to none in the Yong Dynasty, and no one dares to claim to be first.

Along with the oral order came rewards for Princess Jing.

First, Wang Fuquan, who was beside Emperor Zhaoding, arrived at Prince Jing's Mansion with rewards.

Later, the rewards from Empress Ling of the Central Palace followed closely.

Furthermore, Lord Lu, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, was allowed to personally supervise the execution of the "bandits" who attacked Princess Jing.

With this stack of imperial edicts and rewards, Lu Jinan became the "favorite of the emperor" in the eyes of others.

He also became the number one person talked about in the streets and alleys of Yongjing City after dinner.

The attack on Princess Jing was also hastily dealt with during this wave of favor.

While everyone was discussing this matter, Jiang Luo, Rendong and Wangyou were sitting on the side of the road eating wontons, listening to the people at the nearby table talking shamelessly.

"This Lord Lu is now extremely popular in front of the Emperor. In the future, he can kill anyone he wants. Tsk tsk tsk tsk..." A man in a long gown shook his head and said with a pursed mouth.

"Of course not. Look at the rewards and the grand ceremony in which he personally supervised the execution. Lord Lu is truly extraordinary." Another person continued.

"Hey, hey, have you heard about it?" the man in the long gown asked nervously.

"What did you hear?"

He glanced around and said, "I heard that the people who were killed were the old subordinates of Prince Jing. They said that they couldn't stand the ruthless and cruel Lu who killed people without a trace and brought disgrace to Prince Jing, so they went after Princess Jing."

The other few people were all sighing.

"Are you telling the truth?" one of them asked.

"Of course it's true. How could it be false?" the man said, patting his chest.
