The cannon fodder fake prince at the beginning, I won by hugging thighs

Among all the people present, Kuilang was not convinced by anyone but Liuhuo.

After Liuhuo said this, Kuilang closed his mouth angrily.

"Prince, do you have any instructions?"

Yan Yuanhao stroked the jade pendant on his waist for a long time before he said, "Liuhuo, send a few brothers to keep an eye on the channels that sell information in the capital.

If someone spreads the news that there is evidence found by the Guo family, you don't have to pay any attention to it.

We just need to find out who is interested in this evidence."

Kaiyang interrupted, "Sir, aren't you curious about what evidence is hidden in the Guo family's study?"

"I already got it."

The three of them were all shocked, it must be Lu Jiao!

No wonder all three of them were kicked out.

When Lu Jiao returned to the courtyard, Chen Wen and Lu Ze were having dinner.

When Lu Ze saw her come in, he didn't even care about the food in his mouth and shouted, "Brother! You're back!"

Chen Wen was quick-witted and quick-handed, protecting the food in front of him, and a lot of rice grains splashed on the back of his hand.

Lu Jiao would not tolerate Lu Ze's bad habits.

"What did you promise me last time? You can't talk with food in your mouth! How come you forgot so quickly?"

“Hehe, I am happy, right?” Lu Ze didn’t know where to put his hands and feet for a moment.

"Even with such a small matter, if you can't keep your emotions to yourself, what will you do in the future?"

Lu Ze apologized with a smile and pulled Lu Jiao's sleeve: "Brother, I remember it. There won't be a next time. Please forgive me!

Brother! I copied a piece of calligraphy today, and my teacher said that my handwriting is good! Let me show it to you!"

Lu Jiao held his shoulder and said, "Eat first!"

As he spoke, he took out two roast ducks from behind him like a magic trick, tore off a piece of duck leg and put it in Lu Ze's bowl.

"Come, add a dish for you!"

"Brother, you've gone back again. Since I came to the Prince's Mansion, I have never been back. I miss Uncle Yang a little bit!"

"I think you want Uncle Yang to take you out for a nice meal!"

giggle-

Seeing Chen Wen's curious expression, Lu Jiao explained, "It's not peaceful outside recently, so I won't take you back for now. I'll take you to meet them after a while."

Although Chen Wen was curious about who they were, he also understood that his master must have his own considerations for not telling him some things.

He just had to wait.

Lu Ze heard the subtext of Lu Jiao's words: "Brother, are we going back to the Lu residence these days?"

"Yes, Uncle Wei is going to marry Sister Tian on the 28th of this month. I will go to the ceremony. Do you want to go?"

“I definitely can’t miss it!”

"Then you just listen to the teacher in the next two days. If you behave well, I will take you there."

"I will definitely be obedient!" Lu Ze patted his chest loudly.

During the next two days, Lu Jiao was not completely idle.

From time to time, a few guards who were on rotation would come to her to learn how to disguise themselves.

By the way, I also brought back a lot of news.

After Lu Jiao emptied the Guo family's property, there was nothing left.

However, many places were still confiscated, such as the main courtyard, the guest courtyard and the servants' courtyard.

However, all the firewood in the kitchen was burned by Lu Jiao, and there was not a penny left in the accounting office, not even enough to pay for the firewood.

After being unconscious for a whole night, Guo Xi finally experienced the pain of the emperor's private storehouse and imperial kitchen being wiped out.

He was worried that someone was secretly watching the Guo family, so he did not dare to use the silver hidden in the secret room in the garden. Instead, he asked the butler to go to the guest house, pick out a decoration at random, and send someone to take it out as pawn to exchange for money to cover daily expenses.

It’s a pawn, and it will be taken back later.

Some are happy and some are sad.

After Qiu Jihong left, the emperor's face suddenly darkened.

"Old Zhao, do you think Guo Xi is unwilling to give me a valuable gift?

So just after I hinted to him, his house was robbed and everything was stolen.

Isn’t this too much of a coincidence?”

How would I know that!

Commander Zhao Xinjie complained in his heart, but still bowed and said, "I don't really understand. Since Lord Qiu reported this, I think he has checked it."

The emperor thought so too.

Qiu Jihong and Guo Xi had no contact with each other on a daily basis, and Qiu Jihong would not help the Guo family to deceive the emperor in such a matter.

"Why do I feel like Guo Xi is mocking me in a roundabout way?"

Zhao Xinjie bent even lower, not daring to look the emperor in the eye: "Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. Who would use the entire family's wealth to stage a show?"

"That makes sense. Send a team to assist Qiu Jihong in handling the case.

The main thing is to check whether the Guo family's emptying is true or not. Don't do anything unnecessary. Do you understand?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhao Xinjie is worthy of being the emperor's confidant and he knows the emperor quite well.

He was just curious whether the Guo family was really as unlucky as him, with their private vault being emptied and they had no intention of sending anyone to help solve the case.

The emperor sat high behind his desk, and when he thought about the Guo family also encountering such an unexpected misfortune, he felt unexpectedly relieved.

When I think of those lost favorites, I won’t feel so sad anymore.

"Quan Hongsheng, let's go and see Concubine Shu!"

Concubine Shu was not in Yuehua Palace at the moment, but was with a group of sisters, who came here under the pretext of visiting Concubine Xian, but in fact came to see a joke.

"First, the Second Prince was confined to his home, and now the Guo family has run into this villain. Oh my, my sister is really having a bad year!

We should go and worship the gods and Buddhas to bless our home and family. What do you think, sisters? "

The virtuous concubine had a proper smile on her face, but her eyes were cold, and she said in a neither soft nor hard tone: "Fortunately, my Huan'er is still alive."

Concubine Shu's gloating smile froze, and tears immediately flowed down her cheeks: "Sister, what you said is really murderous!

Everyone outside knows that Qinming Cottage is the property of the Guo family.

In other words, the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guard died to apologize and took the responsibility. Otherwise, if it were handed over to the commander-in-chief for trial, the murderer would definitely be found!

My Jiaojiao'er died unjustly!"

"Sister, be careful with your words! His Majesty has already made the decision.

Sister Shufei said this, is it because she is dissatisfied with the will of Your Majesty?"

Concubine Shu was speechless for a moment and could only wipe her tears silently, thinking about countermeasures in her heart.

At this time, Shunpin, who had been sitting quietly aside and listening to the concubines talking, spoke.

"Your Majesty has always ruled the country in a peaceful and prosperous manner. I think the Second Prince has done nothing wrong, so I have not pursued the matter."

"Your son has always been following the Second Prince, so of course you are speaking for Concubine Xian!"

"I have always been kind to others and have a good relationship with the sisters in the palace. I just stood up and said something fair."

Now Shufei got to know this gentle Shunpin.

In the past, when she relied on the power of others, she had never been seen raising her head and talking to other concubines.

Now that the Second Prince has been under house arrest for three months by His Majesty, Shunpin no longer keeps her head down and hides behind Concubine Xian, and dares to look people in the face.

Concubine Shu looked at Concubine Xian again, with a hint of ill will on her face.

"I'm not feeling well, so I'll go back first."
