Yingge hadn't walked far in the classroom yet. She looked at Zhu Nian and said, "What did you want to tell me just now?"

Zhu Nian looked at the sentence he originally wanted to tell Yingge: If I were scolded now, you would...

As a result, when I looked down, I saw the word "wonderful" in Mr. Yan's review. I was speechless immediately.

"Thank you Yingge."

Yingge heard him say that and stopped listening. She smiled and walked out without saying anything. When she was halfway there, she was caught up by Su Qinghe and Su Qingyu who came later.

"Two or three times"

Let's just ask you, can you give me a different name?

"There's big news. Would you like to hear it?" Su Qingyu said seriously.

"What big news is that that would make you run so far to follow me?"

Su Qingyu looked around when she said this and whispered, "You were also at the scene last night. The result of Madam Luo's case came out last night. I heard that she was killed by someone."

Yingge's mind was just as she had guessed. While they were talking, Liu Ziheng and Yufeng also arrived.

"Why, have you heard the news too?"

"Although this sentence is illogical, everyone can guess that there is a suspect in Mrs. Luo's death."

"Could it really be Lu Gong?"

Before he could finish his words, Su Qinghe blocked them with his fan. "Why are you shouting so loudly?"

This was not something they could discuss out loud.

Yingge looked at the other students who kept looking over here, and the surroundings were noisy, so he said, "Let's go to Xiaolin Hall to talk."

“Hehe, it feels like you and my dad are talking about gathering the elders of the family to discuss something. It feels quite interesting.”

Several young men entered Xiaolin Hall, this time they were not there to study but to discuss something. It felt really fun, but the actual situation was not fun, but serious.

Su Qinghe did not go to Yi Garden last night, and their age was no longer restricted. "The elders in the family did not discuss this matter in detail, but only ordered their children not to go out for parties casually, not to drink, and girls not to go out."

Su Qingyu said, "My third uncle has already sent a letter to Lord Lu, saying that he wants to invite him to visit us. But I remember that my third uncle never took the initiative to invite anyone before."

"Yes, yes, my sister is also here. My father sent someone to call her back last night."

"I guess it's not just you guys, but basically everyone does this!"

"Could it be that the cause of Madam Luo's death has been spread?"

"I heard last night that it was Prefect Liang who brought the coroner to check it out personally."

Su Qinghe said, "In fact, the inspection is just a process. The cause of death is obviously unusual, and there is no cover-up."

"The specific situation is this. I heard from my elders that everyone around Old Madam Luo fell into a coma for unknown reasons that night. When they woke up, Old Madam Luo was already lying on the bed and passed away."

"And there was no cover-up at the scene."

"I heard that he was suffocated to death. The two little daughters of the Luo family were scared to death at the time."

"They killed someone at the scene, but they didn't deliberately cover it up. We clearly knew who the murderer was, but there was no evidence to arrest him."

"I also heard that Governor Liang went to Yi Garden to meet Lu Gong that night, and the two of them parted on bad terms."

So much news came out this evening, but it is understandable. Everyone with some power in Mo City is keeping an eye on this matter. After all, when you pull out a radish, you will bring out the mud.

Yingge said, "Then this is a blatant threat!"

Su Qingyu said, "Could it be that the term 'femme fatale' refers to someone like him? It turns out that beautiful things are poisonous."

Su Qinghe coughed.

Liu Ziheng said, "Brother Qingyu, there are no outsiders here, you don't have to worry about it. If you don't let people speak out, you will be suffocated to death."

Yingge said, "It's okay to say it. Maybe this is what he wants."

There was a moment of silence among the young men present.

"Humph, I informed everyone of the banquet a few days in advance. At the beginning, everyone was laughing and talking happily, and they were friendly. They didn't make any special requests for those who didn't come, and they didn't even get angry, so that everyone would relax their vigilance. Who knew?"

"Who knew that the ultimate move was yet to come."

"This move is really ruthless. It caught everyone off guard. This is the effect of shock and awe."

Yu Feng was so young but had a seldom seen aura. "He doesn't take people seriously. Does he want to kill all the noble children in Mo City? What does he think of us?"

Whoever was able to attend yesterday didn't have one or two backers, but they all came obediently knowing that he was going to invite them. Perhaps we are all ants in the eyes of those in power. They are rich and powerful, and countless people in this world depend on them to survive.

Su Qinghe said, "Yes, if we all connect together, are we still afraid that he will be alone?"

Killing people so blatantly, are all those in power like this? Even if the Queen Mother was here, she cannot disobey the law!

Yingge listened to their discussion while reading a book, and people who knew him well were used to it.

"How long has Lu Gongqing been the Inspector General?" she suddenly asked.

Su Qingyu was stunned for a moment and said, "It seems to have been a few years. Why are you asking this?"

Su Qinghe chuckled, glanced at Yingge who was still reading and said, "Yingge means that since he has been in office for several years, this is certainly not the first time he has done such a thing, and he is still unscathed. I am afraid that there is really no one who can stop him."

Liu Ziheng frowned and said, "I don't really believe this will happen."

Su Qingyu put her hands behind her neck and said, "Officials protect each other, and the court doesn't care. If this continues, I'm afraid..."

Su Qinghe said, "Don't talk nonsense. Discussing the affairs of the court is never black and white. It can be seen clearly from one thing alone. You, who have not yet entered the officialdom, have no right to comment casually."

Su Qingyu said angrily, "Brother, you are only one or two years older than me. You and I are both young at heart. It is useless to discuss state affairs now. The only thing to do is to work hard for the imperial examination and become an official to benefit the people in the future."

"This is boring, just arguing here."

"We are not discussing casually. We are concerned about government affairs. It is okay to just be concerned, but we are just trying to determine what can and cannot be done."

When Liu Ziheng heard her say this, he immediately became excited. "Yingge, what do you think we can do now?"

Yingge said lightly, "Just follow the instructions!"

Liu Ziheng snorted and lay down like Su Qinghe, saying loudly, "It's boring, it's really boring. Why don't we go and smash Lu Gongqing's door together or just put a sack on him at night."

"Very good. Just as you smashed it, Prefect Liang brought people to arrest you."

"Now I can't do what I want to do, I can't play what I want to play, it's really boring, very boring"

"Since you all say it's boring, and you're here today, why don't you just study here?"

Su Qinghe lay there for a while, as if in a trance, and said, "What's the next line of 'Flowers fall, flowers bloom, and the ground is covered with flowers?'"

Yingge replied, "Flowers dance, flowers rhyme, and flowers fall asleep." After she said that, she came back to her senses and glared at Su Qinghe.

Su Qinghe saw that she answered without thinking, and there seemed to be a hint of resentment in her expression. He, who always had good expression control, suddenly became lively. "You, you, you are lying again. What do you mean by not remembering? What do you mean by panic and fright? You are all lying!"

Yingge said, "Oh," and said with a serious look, "So, you want to report me? Then go ahead!"

Are you angry after being exposed? Do you feel like you've been framed?

"I don't have to report you. As long as you finish writing the poem for me, I won't go."

Yingge glanced at him and said, "You must keep your word and keep your promise." After she said that, she picked up the pen and started writing.

In order to see more clearly, Su Qinghe sat up, propped one hand on the table and watched her write stroke by stroke, and then he read out the words "Flowers fall and bloom all over the ground." Suddenly, his eyes widened again. "Your handwriting?" He was about to move forward to see more clearly, and then turned his head to look at Yingge.

“This word.”

Yingge didn't quite understand his surprise, so she hummed. When she finished writing, she looked up and asked him, "How is it? Is it readable?"

A strange smell hit me in the face, and because we were so close, our noses were touching, and our ears were rubbing against each other.

This word has appeared, Su Qinghe shocked himself, why did he have such an idea?

This is not normal.

Yingge was not frightened. Since she came here, she has been hanging out with the students here and is used to their habits of hugging each other's shoulders. Although she is a girl, she can still be with these men under her guidance.

She also put her arm around Su Qinghe's shoulder, just like the other students had done to them before. This decision surprised Su Qinghe.

He took a step back unconsciously.

"What's wrong? Is my handwriting bad? Are you so surprised?"

Su Qinghe felt uncomfortable and pulled her hand away, took a step back and said, "I don't feel anything strange, it's just a little bit weird, how should I put it? "

"What kind of metaphor is this?"

"Oh, just keep writing and don't worry about this."

Is it strange? Yingge looked at it for a while and thought that it was probably because she came from modern times and her handwriting was not good enough!

Yingge wrote the rest of the poem very quickly.

Su Qinghe took it in his hand and recited: "Red tender hands, yellow wine, the whole city is full of spring colors and willows on the palace walls. The east wind is bad, and the joy is thin. A heart full of sorrow, years of separation."

"Good poetry, good poetry"

"When did you wake up?"

Su Qingyu stretched out lazily on the recliner in Xiaolin Hall and said, "The whole city is full of spring colors and the willows on the palace walls. The east wind is bad, and the joy is thin."

Oh, at that time, it was okay.

Su Qingyu looked at him and said, "Brother, is there something I don't know when you say this?"

"No, it's just the right time for you to wake up. Let me test you. Who is the author of this poem?"

"Well, if you ask me like that, how can I know? I have read a limited amount of books, and I can't remember so much. But if you want to talk about the words you just mentioned, I feel like they were written by a woman!"

Women’s? Maybe it’s right, maybe it’s not.

Yingge smiled and said, "Half, half!"

Su Qingyu looked at him and asked, "What do you mean?"

Yingge said, "This is a poem written by a man in the voice of a woman."

Su Qingyu asked, "Isn't this finished yet?"

"It's true that I haven't finished it, but I can't remember all the contents."

Everyone present understood what she meant. She meant that the poem was indeed not written by her.

Su Qingyu folded the poem she had written, put it in her sleeve, stood up and left with Su Qingyu. Xiaolin Hall was once again filled with Yingge alone.

Although the young men were talking about Lu Gongqing, as she said, every country has its own laws and every family has its own rules. No matter what happened to him, it was not something for her, a kid living under someone else's roof, to worry about.

The adult world is too complicated, and all she can do now is to study hard and do what she wants to do.

Su Qinghe returned to his home. On the way, he passed by his father, second uncle and several other elders. It seemed that there was something to discuss at home, so he stood there and did not leave.

His father was a little unhappy and waved his hand to let him leave. Old Master Su looked at him and said, "Want to listen?"

Su Qinghe replied, "Yes, the students in the academy are talking about it."

Old Master Su put down his teacup and asked with interest, "Then tell me what they said."

Su Qinghe said, "The students all want to organize themselves to smash down Lu Gongqing's gate."

Old Master Su laughed loudly, and the other elders of the Su family frowned. "It's better to tell the children at home to be well-behaved. Don't cause trouble in the near future."

Old Master Su said, "You are too cautious. It's not necessary. I just made it up in my mind."

Everyone else in the room looked at him, having obviously just received the news as well.

What, has things changed?

"The Luo family will not pursue the matter any further. This is how it happened. We are now announcing to the public that he died of an illness caused by the extreme heat."

"Humph, some people can never get up again once they kneel down."

"You can't blame him for this. No one can mess with Lu Gongqing. It's obviously not the first time he has done this, but he is still safe and sound now."

This reminded Su Qinghe of what Yingge had asked him before, how long has Lu Gongqing been the Inspector General? It seems that he is not really stupid, but just pretending to be stupid.

An elder of the Su family said, "Do you think he will be allowed to kill people like this all the time? He has killed a lot of people like this."

Old Master Su said, "It's definitely not the first time, nor the last time, but some of those powerful people also tried to resist, but afterwards their homes were either searched or they were exiled on some unexplained charge. In the end, Lu Gongqing was still alive and well. Although there is no evidence that it was him, it is almost certain."

"After all, this Lu Gongqing was a good citizen of our Great Zhou Dynasty before he became a eunuch. Even if he got promoted to heaven, he shouldn't be so rampant. People say that he is trusted by the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother doesn't have the final say in the court."

Six years ago, the emperor of our great Zhou Dynasty left his eight-year-old prince as the heir to the throne in his will, with Queen Wang in charge of government affairs. However, the prince met with an accident on his way back to Beijing, and Queen Wang was suppressed by Concubine Liang's clan and had to retreat again and again. In the end, she had to spend the whole day in seclusion in the harem. The emperor, who was ordered to assist him in times of crisis, and the Duke of Yingguo, who returned to Beijing early to take charge of the situation, were not spared in the matter of protecting the prince. Who do you think is behind him?

After a moment of silence, Old Master Su said, "Uncle Liang, the Liang family, or Liang Ping?"

“It’s not a bad idea.”

"But didn't I hear that Liang Ping was the one who came up with the idea for the Crown Prince's incident?"

"At that time, he was just a small guard under General Liang and later became the prime minister."

Before Mr. Su could finish his words, he was scolded by Old Master Su.

"Why do you think the Luo family is like this? It's because they once said something wrong and made a wrong move. The Luo family has always been considered a powerful family, but now they are indeed empty inside and only have an empty shell left. Don't be like the Luo family, kneeling once and never standing up again in your life. Think more about your descendants and leave them a way out."

Lai Liangping came to harm someone. Who did he harm? Why was my father scolded by my grandfather just as he was about to say it? Can't that person be mentioned?

When the elders of the Su family heard what Old Master Su said, they all nodded in agreement.
