The legitimate daughter brings disaster to the concubine! Seize the imperial power and the throne

Made a fuss all night

Lu Jingning had just taken a rest in the government office when she heard that Princess Qinghe had arrived. She rubbed her blistered eyes and forced herself to sit up.

Princess Qinghe looked Lu Jingning up and down, and when she saw that she was fine, she breathed a sigh of relief and took her hand: "Aning, come back with me. I am worried about you living here."

"aunt……"

"Okay, let's stop talking." Princess Qinghe was very determined and asked people to pack their luggage quickly.

Lu Jingning smiled warmly and did not refuse. She followed her to the princess's mansion. Princess Qinghe placed her in the courtyard closest to the main courtyard and ordered people not to disturb her.

I didn't ask anything, neither should I ask nor should I ask.

After traveling for several days in a row and falling into the water, she was already exhausted. She fell asleep on the couch in a short while.

It was already evening when I woke up again.

When Xue Yuan saw her wake up, she called for food. Soon the maid brought the hot meal. Lu Jingning was indeed hungry, so she began to eat in big mouthfuls.

After the meal, Xue Yuan asked someone to clear the table and served a cup of hot tea.

After Lu Jingning finished drinking, he continued, "County Magistrate Zhang has arrested two people, both of whom are close to Wen Chen. There is also a jade pendant as evidence. This matter is related to Wen Chen. The Wen family has also heard the news, and the head of the Wen family has rushed to Qinghe County."

Lu Jingning's brows relaxed.

"Now everyone in Qinghe County knows that Wen Chen favored his concubine and killed his wife, poisoned his wife and children, committed treason and defied the majesty, and committed arson and murder out of hatred. Any of these crimes is punishable by death. Magistrate Zhang has some friendship with Wen Chen, and he arrested him and sent him to jail, but he has actually been staying in the backyard. Majesty, please rest assured, I have sent people to keep an eye on the county government, and will never let Wen Chen escape."

Lu Jingning was not worried that the person would run away. Aunt Xian and Old Madam Wen were still in the Wen family. Wen Chen would not run away. Moreover, Wen Chen was full of energy and wanted to achieve great things. Once he ran away, it would mean that he was guilty. In the future, he would only be regarded as an ungrateful villain by the people and would never become a general respected by everyone.

I have to say that Lu Jingning guessed Wen Chen’s thoughts correctly.

Magistrate Zhang advised: "Two people are holding you back, and you had a grudge with the big shot during the day. You can't clear yourself of this even if you jump into the Yellow River. It's better to leave Qinghe now before the incident gets out of hand, and come back after the storm is over."

Wen Chen shook his head: "I won't leave. I will definitely find out the truth about this matter."

He did want to teach Lu Jingning a lesson, but before he could do it, he was framed. Wen Chen asked angrily, "Why did she come to Qinghe instead of staying in the capital? Do you know what the situation is in the capital?"

Magistrate Zhang said, "There's news from the capital. Although the crown prince is gone, the emperor is determined to train the little prince. The princes in the capital can't even get close to him. I came to Qinghe County to welcome the little prince's mother back."

"Your Highness's mother is in Qinghe County?" Wen Chen frowned. How could it be such a coincidence?

Magistrate Zhang nodded.

Wen Chen suddenly calmed down: "If we find this person first, it will definitely be useful in the future."

Hearing this, County Magistrate Zhang was the first to change his expression and waved his hand: "Brother Wen, we have been friends for many years, so I dare to let you go. It's okay to fool the princess, but if you take me captive to deal with the young prince's mother, if the young prince sits in that position one day and finds out something, the lives of my nine clans will be in danger."

County Magistrate Zhang doesn't want to get involved in such a great danger.

Wen Chen pursed his lips and said nothing.

"Brother Wen, please make a decision as soon as possible. If the *** starts to question me, I will be powerless."

The two continued to discuss, and Wen Chen was determined not to leave.

"Sir, Patriarch Wen and General Wen are here."

When Wen Chen heard that the two were coming, his heart sank; "Why are the clan leader and uncle here?"

Magistrate Zhang shook his head and was about to go to meet the emperor when he was told that the two had gone to Princess Qinghe's mansion to apologize. Wen Chen could no longer hold back and stood up to leave, but Magistrate Zhang stopped him: "You are a suspicious person now, how can you go out and show your face?"

Wen Chen was held down tightly and had no choice but to sit down.

Princess Palace at this moment

The two elders of the Wen family were waiting at the gate. Princess Qinghe sent someone to ask Lu Jingning's opinion, and Lu Jingning said he could meet them.

A moment later, the two elders of the Wen family arrived one after another.

"This old minister greets the princess and the emperor."

"I pay my respects to you, the princess."

The two saluted.

Lu Jingning waved his hand: "No need to be polite, please take a seat."

"Thank you, Master." Clan leader Wen stood up. His temples were gray, and he was full of vigor and confidence. "This old minister would never dare to do that. Please forgive me, Master. Wen Chen was so bold that he dared to contradict you. It is the fault of the Wen family."

"Everyone has their own responsibility for their own actions. I won't care about it." Lu Jingning said generously, pointing at Princess Qinghe: "It's just that my aunt has suffered a lot of grievances over the years, and the Wen family should give her justice."

Patriarch Wen was ashamed, his old face turned pale and blue. He didn't expect that Wen Chen from the second house was so ignorant that he favored his concubine and neglected his wife, and made it known to everyone.

"Please give me your instructions, great master." Patriarch Wen bowed.

Lu Jingning personally stood up and supported the head of the Wen family: "The Wen family has had several generations of loyal ministers and famous generals. It would be a pity if the reputation of the entire Wen family was ruined because of Wen Chen's mistake and affected other younger generations of the Wen family."

Patriarch Wen frowned.

General Wen on the side cupped his hands and said, "What do you want me to do to calm you down? Whether it's beatings or punishments, the Wen family will not hesitate."

Lu Jingning smiled faintly and said, "I want General Wen to teach Brother Lin martial arts."

There was a hint of surprise in General Wen's eyes.

"General Wen is a man of both literary and martial abilities, and has made great military achievements. My brother is a little late in learning, but I believe that with General Wen's abilities, he will definitely be able to teach Brother Lin to be a talented person."

Being Lu Lin's master is equivalent to tying the entire Wen family to the Eastern Palace. When Lu Lin comes to power in the future, the Wen family will prosper.

If Lu Lin loses, the Wen family will definitely not have a good ending.

Since ancient times, those in power have been most wary of generals with military power. The Wen family has not had a war team in these years and only obeys the king.

General Wen was a little angry. If Wen Chen hadn't been caught with something, he wouldn't have been led by the nose.

Abusing the princess and talking back to the queen are all serious crimes.

General Wen's face was tense, and after a long while he said, "Thank you very much for your appreciation, and I will definitely live up to your mission."
