"What's there to investigate? The murderer is right in front of them, but they don't dare to catch him. In the end, it's not like they let it go." Su Fanghua curled her lips.
"Shut up." Fan Yan said coldly, "If you don't want to stay here, then get out."
"Don't worry, Prince Xuan. In fact, we are quite curious. Why did Princess Xuan say there was something wrong with the golden lock? Could it be that you knew in advance that there was something wrong with the golden lock?" Mu Siyu said calmly.
Su Fanghua raised her head slightly with an arrogant expression: "Mrs. Lu, the world praises you for being extremely intelligent, but now it seems that you are nothing more than that. Just now you were investigating what young master Lu touched, and the gold lock was hung around his neck.
Isn't it appropriate not to check something so obvious? Just because it was a gift from the Queen, you don't dare to check it."
"Although the golden lock was given by the Queen, none of us ever doubted the Queen." Su Zhiliu relaxed a little after hearing the imperial doctor say that he could prepare a medicinal soup, and he was in the mood to say a few words to Su Fanghua. "Firstly,
, the Empress has no motive for doing this. She is the mother of a country, and she rewarded the golden lock in front of so many people, but the golden lock turned out to be defective. What good does this do to her? Secondly, although the golden lock was a reward from the Empress
Yes, but it was handled by the people under her command. I am afraid that the queen has not had much time with the golden lock. If there is really a problem, then she should also check the person who handled the golden lock. From the craftsman to the servant, everyone has the opportunity."
There were so many people in the audience, but Shangguan Jinxiu was the only one who cared about Su Fanghua's slander, and the others didn't take her words seriously at all.
Lu Shaoyu took over the case, while the others stayed beside the two poisoned children, waiting to see the medicine prepared by the imperial doctor take effect.
"The child is asleep." Su Zhiliu looked at the child in the cradle and said to Lu Xuan next to him, "I think the medicine prepared by the imperial doctor is effective. The rash has disappeared, and the child is not as uncomfortable as before."
"Then you stay with the child. My eldest brother and I have to continue to entertain the guests. I will leave the female guests to my sister-in-law. Don't go, just watch over the child."
Lu Xuan knew that she only cared about her children now and was not in the mood to socialize anymore.
"Okay." Su Zhiliu said to Mu Siyu without being polite, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry to bother you."
"Do you still need to see me outside?" Mu Siyu said, "There's nothing wrong with Hua'er. I've had someone look at her and there's nothing wrong with her golden lock."
"I don't understand, why do you want to attack our Li'er?" Su Zhiliu said, "It's too obvious to use such lame means to drive a wedge between us and the royal family."
"Sometimes it doesn't matter whether the means are lame or not. What matters is what the purpose of the person behind the scenes is."
Lu Shaoyu checked.
Shangguan Jinxiu ordered a pair of gold locks to be made, but only one of the gold locks was defective. So he followed the clues and found out that the person who had done something to the gold locks was actually the queen's dowry girl.
The dowry girl insisted that it was the queen's order. After being subjected to various severe tortures, she couldn't bear it and died.
The clue ends here.
Everything points to Shangguan Jinxiu.
After the banquet, this matter spread out for some reason, and everyone in the capital knew that at the full moon banquet of Mr. Lu Er's son, the fat boy who was finally obtained almost died in the hands of the queen.
As a result, various conspiracy versions of the story were spread.
Some people say that Feng Linguo arranged for such a princess to come and marry as a conspiracy. The purpose was to sow discord between the royal family and the Lu family, to make the Lu family hate the royal family and cause chaos within the country.
The outside world has spread rumors that Shangguan Jinxiu, the ‘Demon Queen’, is so magical.
Public opinion is easily stirred up.
Whether it is modern or ancient times, people are fearful and three people can become tigers. In the end, Shangguan Jinxiu, the new queen, has become a witch who bewitched the new emperor, causing Fan Yuanxi's reputation to be affected again.
The Lu family has a very important position in the hearts of the people. Especially Mu Siyu, Mrs. Lu, she has done many good deeds among the people, so that where there is Mu Siyu, there is people's support, but now someone is using this sharp weapon to
Deal with the Lu family and Fan Yuanxi.
Everyone knows that Shangguan Jinxiu is innocent and this is a conspiracy of some people.
But there is no evidence.
All evidence has been destroyed.
Shangguan Jinxiu took the blame unjustly.
Should Fan Yuanxi deal with Shangguan Jinxiu in this situation?
If it is dealt with, Shangguan Jinxiu will be disappointed, and Feng Linguo will definitely have objections, and even if they are not careful, it will cause a war between the two countries.
If it is not dealt with, the people will complain about the Lu family, thinking that the new emperor Fan Yuanxi has listened to the Demon Queen's pillow talk and started to attack the Lu family. Since ancient times, there have been emperors in every dynasty.
Fan Yuanxi's prestige among the people is not as good as that of the Lu family. It can be said that because the Lu family supported Fan Yuanxi's rise to power, the people accepted him. If Fan Yuanxi attacks the Lu family, and someone takes the opportunity to provoke him, someone will always fall for it.
Analyzing this matter from another angle, even if the matter is settled, will Fan Yuanxi, a suspicious person, still tolerate the Lu family's monopoly on imperial power when he sees that the Lu family is so loved by the people?
This is a very despicable calculation.
Advance to attack, retreat to defend.
The person who uses this method behind the scenes is a wise man and a conspirator.
Yangxin Hall. Fan Yuanxi looked at Lu Yi: "Things are getting worse and worse. Now there are rumors outside that I, the emperor, have begun to deal with your Lu family. If this continues, my name as a tyrant will become even more famous."
"The Emperor cares about this kind of reputation?" Lu Yi said calmly, "If you cared about it, you wouldn't have acted so openly all these years."
"What do you think we should do? The queen has cried a lot in the past few days. She stands outside my palace with a plate every day, like a wronged little rabbit. Just now she was kneeling there, saying that she didn't take care of herself.
She is a person, this matter is not unjust to her, she is willing to be punished. She is also willing to write a letter to Feng Linguo to explain this matter, which will not affect the diplomatic relations between the two countries. She also said that she would choose another Feng Lin for me.
The princess of the country is sent here for marriage."
Lu Yi smiled.
Fan Yuanxi looked at him: "What are you laughing at?"
"The Emperor is delighted to have two princesses from Fenglin Kingdom. This is also a happy event. It just so happens that your harem is empty, and you can have one more woman to help you."
"Master Lu said this. It seems that he yearns for this kind of thing. Then it will be done. I will give you ten more beauties so that you can enjoy the fun of spreading your flowers."
"That's not necessary." Lu Yi handed over his hand, "However, since the matter has reached this point, there is no need to stop it. What the people behind the scenes want to see is that the emperor loses the support of the people, so that will be as he wishes."
"Are you trying to take advantage of the situation?" Fan Yuanxi understood what he meant. "It's only been a few days and things have become a big deal. Someone must be fanning the flames. Let's take this opportunity to clean things up."
