In ancient times, it was a great honor for a minister to be granted the title of marquis. In addition, Marquis Wu'an also managed his private business well. It can be said that he had neither money nor power. Why did he want to get involved in this mess?

No matter which monarch you are associated with, the heights a minister can reach are limited. Wu Anhou must understand this principle, right?

Unless he overthrew the imperial power of this family, made up a story to convince the people, and became the emperor himself.

However, this is really a fantasy, especially since Marquis Wu'an no longer has any military power.

"He's getting old and confused. He knows he's wrong after being scolded by the emperor." Lu Mingyun sneered, "Now it's over. I didn't want to get involved in this, but now those people won't believe me even if I tell them at the top of my lungs."

Li Mofu pursed his lips, "So now you are on the side of the prince?"

Lu Mingyun smiled bitterly. "I've been here for less than half a year. I just became the magistrate of Su County, and then the Prince of Qi was arrested in Su County. The Crown Prince even came to Su County in person. Now you say you're not a disciple of the Crown Prince, who would believe you?"

"......" Li Mofu took a breath of cold air.

Seeing this, Lu Mingyun sighed, "You were captured and suffered that day. I've been busy these days and really don't have time to accompany you..."

Li Mofu's face suddenly wrinkled, goose bumps appeared on his skin. He quickly interrupted, "Don't, don't say that. When you came to see me before, I said I was fine. I just got punched a few times. Besides, you must know how bad the injury was. It just hurt when I got punched, but I'm fine now."

"Yes, I vomited tea several times because of the pain when I was talking to King Qi..." Lu Mingyun said quietly.

Li Mofu thought of that scene, and the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily, "Really? That's really suitable for painting."

"I don't think you're suitable to be kept in the yard." Lu Mingyun said suddenly.

Li Mofu nodded in agreement, "I think so too. Speaking of which, the prince has left, so can I go out on the street now?"

"I think you should keep it in a cage." Lu Mingyun said again.

"..." Li Mofu paused, turned his head and looked at the unshaven Lu Mingyun, "Damn, it's so vulgar for you to say such things."

"......? Me like this? What about me?" Lu Mingyun was confused.

"It's so disgusting for you to say such things in such an unkempt manner. Don't say it next time, or I'll hit you. If I can't hit you, I'll hit myself." Li Mofu left his seat with a look of disgust and ran away.

“.......?” Lu Mingyun blinked and raised his hand to touch his beard.

Is it ugly?

Lu Mingyun frowned and looked at Mo Zhu who was standing not far away, "Am I ugly like this?"

Mo Zhu was originally standing there in a daze, his eyes fixed on his nose and his nose focused on his heart. Suddenly, he heard Lu Mingyun ask him this, and he was a little confused. "...It's not ugly, it's just that it doesn't suit the young master."

"What do you think Li Mofu's reaction just now meant?" Lu Mingyun asked again.

Mo Zhu swallowed and said, "Perhaps, Master Li prefers younger masters."

"......" Lu Mingyun touched his chin, "Let's go back to the house and help me shave."

In mid-to-late March, the King of Qi was imprisoned for raising a private army and plotting rebellion. The emperor was furious at court, scolding a group of officials and, by the way, punishing several powerful officials who had ulterior motives.

In the end, a branch of the King of Qi was confiscated and exterminated, and the youngest child, who was only one year old, was given poisoned wine.

When Li Mofu first learned about this, he found it unbelievable. He had the illusion that the world was unfolding without his knowledge, although he knew that the King of Qi was in great danger this time.

His impression of the King of Qi still lingered on the gentle young man who had suddenly appeared in Wangyue Tower. Although he was also a man of many words and a man of many words, he was indeed a very young man, much younger than the emperor. This was perhaps the reason why he had survived the struggle for the throne until now.

Unfortunately, people have to grow up.

If the Prince of Qi was a leisurely prince who didn't care about worldly affairs, perhaps the emperor would have kept him. But he chose to get involved in this situation and chose the wrong heir whom the emperor favored. It was miserable, so miserable.
