Qi Yu was still waiting outside Lanfang Pavilion, so naturally he couldn't hear anyone scolding him, but even if he heard it, he wouldn't care. Don't say that Zhou Shuhe scolded him now, even if the emperor wants to send someone to beat him, He can also lie down on the torture bench with a happy face.

He had heard the news of the deaths of several older sisters and aunts long ago, and only one sister was missing. Now after several rounds, he finally found it. really happy.

In fact, Qi Yu didn't come to Lanfang Pavilion very often. Every time he came here before, he either received an errand or had other matters to discuss with Zhou Shuhe.But today he is not on duty, he doesn't need to come to the palace at all, there is still a lot of bad things waiting for him in the Overwatch Council, but when he came back to his senses, his feet had already stepped into the courtyard of Lanfang Pavilion .

He just really wanted to tell Zhou Shuhe that when he was in the prison in the suburbs of Huxiang County more than two years ago, he realized the wish to protect his relatives that he dared not say in his heart.

"This is great!" Zhou Shuhe is also very happy. She still remembers that girl. Except for Qi Yu, she is the closest to herself in the entire Qi family-even though their communication often ends with one scolding each other for artificiality and the other scolding each other. Insolent——but even when she was young, she never denied that she liked that little girl who often raised her chin and pretended to be a gesture.

"Is Yingying okay, how did you find her back?"

Qi Yu shook his head: "It's not very good. She was assigned to the Suzhou-Hangjiaofang Division first, and later bought back by the young master of the Zheng family. Yesterday I only provoked the concubine Jijia, and she sent someone to her mother's house , sent Yingying to my residence."

Zhou Shuhe was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "But with you here, she will get better and better in the future, right?"

Qi Yu also laughed, with a look of pride that he only had when he was a child: "Of course."

The new green season and the spring day are just right, Zhou Shuhe welcomes the warm spring light, and feels that his mood is also warmed up with the sun.

Since he had nothing to do, he became interested in chatting about family matters, and casually asked him how he was doing recently, how about the newly opened mansion, and how his errands in the front and rear palaces were.

Talking like this, it is inevitable to talk about Zhu Yu's case.

She herself knew the outcome of this matter, and had some guesses and judgments. Now, with what Qi Yu said, the cause and effect of the matter were laid out, and it became much clearer at once.

At the beginning, the eldest princess' treason case benefited the emperor, and he realized that treason was a useful crime, so he was very annoyed by the pedants of the Imperial Academy and the old party who abolished the prince in the imperial court, so he called He came up with the idea of ​​repeating the old tricks, implying that Wan Min used this as an excuse to get rid of these people.

Wan Min was indeed a capable person. On the verdict of the confession, the name of Sun Jingzhi, a scholar of the Imperial Academy, was impressively written as the emperor wished, but the word Zhu Yu was added privately.

Facing the emperor, his speech was that he accidentally discovered that Zhu Yu's words were inappropriate. He said something like "waiting for King Ning to succeed to the throne" in front of others several times. There are thousands of soldiers in the government, but I don't know what the picture is.

Before the eldest princess' rebellion happened, Qi Huizhi, who was the prince and grand teacher at the time, did the same thing. What Wan Min said was aimed at the emperor Nilin. People go to jail.

In fact, Wan Min certainly has his own schemes.

"Your Majesty is getting older and has only one son, Prince Ning. Long live is just a casual talk. Except for the first emperor, the emperors of Daning lived longer, and the other 60 or [-] years old are considered longevity. Wan Min will naturally think about it. Get your own way out."

Zhou Shuhe thought for a while, then took Qi Yu's words: "In Wan Min's view, King Ning is the next emperor who is certain. They are rich, but except for Zhu Yu, the rest of this generation are worthless playboys, and when King Ning ascends the throne, he can only rely on Zhu Yu and these people in the palace."

"But instead of relying on his relatives and eunuchs, Wan Min obviously hopes that the next emperor can only rely on eunuchs." Qi Yu sighed, "Compared to Zhu Yu, he is the one who wants to be a minister of life."

Zhou Shuhe was still a little puzzled. After all, His Majesty is suspicious by nature. It is understandable to order people to be imprisoned in a moment of urgency, but when he calms down, he will naturally ask the people from the Criminal Ministry to check. Could it be that he really trusts the Overwatch Council so much?

She thought so, and asked.

Qi Yu took a deep look at her, and said, "The Overwatch Council is not only the Governor of Wandu, but also the commissioners including me."

Zhou Shuhe's heart trembled, he hurriedly picked up the teacup in his hand, and drank it down in one gulp.

"These deceitful things are related to yourself. Are you not afraid that I will tell the Holy One to punish you for your sin?"

Qi Yu smiled: "I am willing to tell Mrs. Zhou these things myself. I know what kind of person you are, but you won't."

"You don't know." Zhou Shuhe put his white porcelain teacup on the table in a fit of anger, made a loud voice, and said sarcastically: "You said just now that you want to protect your sister, if you mistrust me, and she will go back to you again." What should you do if you are in trouble."

A few winter jasmine branches outside the window had already produced flower buds. Qi Yu couldn't help but look at it for a while, and then took a long time to look away and answer her seriously.

"You can laugh at my arrogance as much as you want, but I just know that you won't harm me, and Yingying knows it too."

There is really no way to find out why this kind of thing is. Believe it or not, it is an extremely private part of the human heart.

Zhou Shuhe was still sullen and didn't speak, Qi Yu didn't worry about it anymore, and the topic soon returned to Zhu Yu's case.

"In fact, I already found out Yingying's whereabouts last year, but the backyard of the aristocratic family was really difficult to obtain, and the spies in the Zheng residence also said that she seemed to be doing well, so I waited until now, and finally tore a hole. After all The matter of Zhu Yu is the matter of Imperial Concubine Jia and King Ning, and the matter of His Highness King Ning is the matter of all the relatives and relatives, including the Zheng family."

On the other hand, Wan Min needed to consolidate the emperor's anger towards Zhu Yu, but it would be deliberate if he took action again at this time, and at this moment Qi Yu volunteered to offer him a plan.

Zhou Shuhe thought for a moment, then asked: "So it was you who exaggerated to make Concubine Jia panic, and pretended to be a good person to give her some bad ideas, which made her accidentally offend His Majesty, and you still used this to repay her kindness and ask her for help." Want Yingying to come?"

"exactly."

"Then you are quite wicked." Zhou Shuhe commented sharply.

"..."

Qi Yu ignored her and continued talking about the past few days.

He told Wan Min that Concubine Jia would bring King Ning together to intercede with the emperor, and Wan Min only needed a little provocation in words to make the emperor feel that she was posing as the prince's biological mother and threatened the emperor with this.Coincidentally, the emperor thought that Zhu Yu had acted in the same way, and it was only natural that the combination of the two would make him even more angry.

A wicked person concluded: "If His Majesty feels that King Ning's henchmen have evil thoughts in their hearts, then no matter what they do or don't do, they are all guilty in His Majesty's eyes."

Zhou Shuhe pondered for a moment, and in his heart offered Concubine Jia the incense of no money.

She pressed on and asked: "Then the fact that Concubine Jia offended His Majesty in the Imperial Garden this morning was also your fault?"

Qi Yu nodded, thought for a while and shook his head.

"Although I am not accompanying His Majesty today, I have been in charge of the Hall of Mental Cultivation for more than half a year, and most of the imperial court is now my people. I did tell Concubine Jia about His Majesty's whereabouts, and she sent Yingying to me. Even if I have bad intentions, but I don't care about my deeds, I have received this kindness, and I should repay it, there is a saying that there is a three-thirds love when meeting, if she meets His Majesty, maybe she can relax a little bit."

Zhou Shuhe's heart moved: "Since you didn't instigate it, why did she offend His Majesty?"

Qi Yu replied: "If Concubine Jia is unlucky, naturally the Empress will be the happiest."
