The prince is very cruel

He is also very confident that he has the ability.

Lu Guangyi didn't know why he trusted this strange young man, but after hesitating, he waved his hand.

Immediately, the servants retreated one after another.

There were only three people left in the whole room.

"Sit down and talk." Lu Guangyi's attitude became much better.

It was completely different from what happened just now, and Lou Xinyue was a little overwhelmed.

Guan Ning sat down.

"Are you the descendant of Chang Shoufang?" Lu Guangyi asked first.

Guan Ning shook his head.

Lu Guangyi nodded: "Come to think of it, this man has devoted his entire life to the imperial court, never married, and has no offspring."

Guan Ning raised an eyebrow: "From the tone of your voice, you seem to admire him?"

Lu Guangyi nodded without hesitation: "Why not? He came from a humble family and rose to prominence through his own abilities and knowledge. He is truly a rare talent."

"While serving in the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Revenue was able to maintain a large surplus of money and grain every year. He is recognized as a capable person."

"As a person, he never accepts money or gifts, refuses to form alliances with any powerful person, does not join any faction, and when faced with injustice, he will speak up for others."

"Many people in the government and the public praised him. He and I were colleagues back then, and I have deep respect for scholars like him."

"When he implicated the King of Wu in rebellion, many people didn't dare to believe it, including me."

As he spoke, a hint of regret appeared on his face, and it was obvious that he was not lying.

"So, it wasn't you who killed Lord Chang?" Lou Xinyue asked.

"He and I have nothing to do with each other, so why would I harm him? His Majesty is furious because he implicated me in a rebellion and ordered a thorough investigation by the Ministry of Justice. How could I not investigate?"

"If there is irrefutable evidence, how can I not report it and arrest the person?" Lu Guangyi said helplessly.

Hearing this, Lou Xinyue's cold eyes gradually calmed down. If Lu Guangyi was the one who harmed Chang Shoufang, she would definitely kill him!

Guan Ning asked, "Is the letter still there?"

"It was destroyed long ago." Lu Guangyi shook his head.

"How did you find the conspiracy letter?" Guan Ning asked.

Lu Guangyi fell into reminiscence for a long time, and suddenly his eyes widened: "It's someone from the Zhao family, it's someone from the Zhao family!"

"Zhao family?" Guan Ning's voice rose, and something in his mind moved: "Who in the Zhao family?"

"Zhao Yi is the current Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice!" Lu Guangyi said.

Guan Ning was shocked, Zhao Yi?

Isn’t that the guy who brought people to Guanfu and forced me two days ago?

This world is too small, and enemies will always gather together!

Lu Guangyi continued, "It's strange to say. I led people to search the Prince of Wu's mansion for several hours and didn't find anything valuable. But when this person came, he found the letter."

"At the time, he was just a small clerk in the Ministry of Justice, constantly trying to curry favor with me. But because of that incident, he quickly rose through the ranks and was promoted by His Majesty, becoming a minister and even becoming a disciple of Zhao Tai, the Governor-General of Guangdong and Guangxi."

"Now that I'm in trouble, this bastard has been kicking me when I'm down. He doesn't even think about who brought him up in the first place!" Lu Guangyi said with a look of disgust in his eyes.

"You mean he found the letter alone?" Guan Ning's eyes flashed, grasping the key point, and Lou Xinyue followed his gaze and looked in the direction.

Lu Guangyi nodded: "That's right."

"I remember it very clearly. I criticized him a few times at the time. As a clerk, he should only record the information and not participate in the action."

Hearing this, Guan Ning narrowed his eyes and looked at Lou Xinyue.

How could a clerk in the Ministry of Justice, who was essentially a bookkeeper, take it upon himself to do the work of a laborer? This was clearly problematic.

It seems that this guy Zhao Yi cannot be avoided.

"Anything else? What else do you know?"

Lu Guangyi frowned and hesitated for a moment: "You have to keep it a secret."

"Of course." Guan Ning nodded, his young face full of calmness.

Lu Guangyi had experienced many ups and downs in his life, and he was a shrewd man. He could tell that Guan Ning was not a two-faced person, so he said bluntly: "The affairs of the court are never just black and white. There are not so many treacherous ministers. They are all just victims of the struggle."

"I am, and so is Lord Chang."

"Alas." He sighed.

This was quite insightful. Guan Ning heard the hidden meaning and asked, "Who is fighting against Lord Chang?"
