Chapter two hundred and two
When Liang Huanqing said this, everyone could actually understand that her reasoning was completely tenable in front of the emperor, and as long as she said it, the emperor would automatically send people to investigate, and there was no need for them to work hard to find evidence on their own.
But the person they were facing was none other than the current favorite concubine Lu Huiling. Lu Huiling looked very much like Empress Mingxian. I was afraid that without conclusive evidence, Lu Huiling would bite them back and there would be no more.
A chance for a comeback.
Even if the Emperor has some doubts about Lu Huiling because of what they said, the last time His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Qi Jingyang sent people to attack Liang Huanqing, as long as no conclusive evidence about the Crown Prince is found, even if Liang Huanqing has been missing for two days and was seriously injured, the Emperor
It will also bring peace to the matter. After all, the prince is still the prince, and he is the only child of the emperor and empress Mingxian in this world.
But they can't bear it anymore. Lu Huiling and Lu Gaohong set them up again and again, and they can only survive. But as time goes by, who knows whether Lu Huiling will directly kill them.
Woolen cloth?
Now the emperor's love for Lu Huiling is at its peak, reaching a level beyond the reach of ordinary people. Even the eldest princess Wang Shu can't match it. They are worried that as time goes by, Lu Huiling will become arrogant and proud, and no one can say anything about her anymore.
Half a sentence.
What's even more terrifying is that the emperor allowed Lu Huiling to accompany her to read the memorial, which meant that the emperor allowed her to participate in political affairs. Even if she just said a few words and expressed some of her own opinions, she could invisibly change some of the status quo. This cannot be
The concubine can reach some extent.
"The evidence that Lu Chen committed murder and dumped the body is easy to find. At this moment, he is determined not to transport the body out of Shangjing City. Moreover, Shangjing City is now heavily guarded. He has to rush back to the palace to attend the banquet. It must be handed over to his palace.
It is impossible for people to do it outside the capital, and they cannot throw the corpse directly into a crowded place. After all, there are few people in the palace. For fear of being discovered, they only need to send people to mass graves or the like.
It would be better to search more in remote places. However, we need the portrait of the palace maid." Liang Ji said in a deep voice.
"I'll figure it out. This plan can't be revealed. I'm the only one who can get the portrait." Qi Wangshu stood up and said.
Qi Wangshu looked at them like this, but she also wanted to do something for them. She knew in her heart that Lu Huiling's rise to power was not good for her. Besides, Lu Huiling was not only hurting Liang Huanqing now, she had been
His father's favor was so bold that he even dared to scheme against the princess. This was a breath that Qi Wangshu could not swallow no matter what.
Everyone looked at Qi Wangshu, thinking that she was crying and crying, so she must be scared, but after all, there were so many of them here, and they didn't expect to ask Qi Wangshu to help. Now she can
Helping them is definitely the best thing.
Liang Huanqing stepped forward and put his arm around Qi Wangshu's shoulder, patted him twice, and said, "Okay, the princess and brother will go together later. We must find the body as soon as possible."
Liang Ji looked at Princess Shu. He didn't dare to look at her since he hugged her just now. When they looked at her again, they both remembered the embarrassing situation just now and both lowered their heads and blushed.
Qin Ruilan was careful and rigorous, and naturally discovered their abnormality, but did not say it out loud, so he could roughly guess what was going on.
"There is also Lu Gaohong. If it is found that Lu Gaohong abused his power this time and coerced the concubine with Lu Huiling to destroy the feast, I am afraid that he will lose the emperor's trust. It would be best if he could kill two birds with one stone." Liang Huanqing did not want to waste any more time.
After looking around at everyone, he said.
They nodded. Lu Gaohong was now in power. They didn't know why. It was probably because Lu Huiling had been instigating the emperor all the time. The emperor trusted Lu Gaohong unusually. If he had anything to do with Lu Gaohong, he would definitely not do it.
Just another question.
This is also the reason why Lu Gaohong dared to abuse his private power, deceive superiors and subordinates, and even dared to practice favoritism in this corruption and perverting of the bill that shocked the government and the public.
Lu Gaohong was the prime minister of a country and was appointed by the emperor to be fully responsible for this matter. Other officials also did not dare to ask more questions because Lu Gaohong had too much power, so they just let it go.
Who would have known that the former dynasty and the harem were closely related, and Lu Gaohong's hand actually reached out to the harem, all because he had a "good daughter" like Lu Huiling.
Neither Lu Huiling nor Lu Gaohong can be kept.
"Lu Gaohong must have kept the case files well. As military generals, if we go to inquire privately, we may arouse their suspicions. Wouldn't we just alert the enemy?" Wei Shen asked.
Everyone nodded, Liang Huanqing lowered his head and pondered, this is indeed a problem that cannot be ignored.
Lu Gaohong has a deep foundation in the court, and he must have done a lot of shameful things. If there are interests involved, they may inform Lu Gaohong before they get the documents. In this way, Lu Huiling will also know about them.
If we know the cause and effect of this matter, we will definitely find a way to deal with them.
Liang Huanqing and his party really couldn't bear such a blow.
"Is there anyone among us who has access to the documents?" Liang Ji looked around. There were only military officers among them. He was afraid that it would be impossible to get the documents quietly.
Everyone shook their heads in silence.
Suddenly, Qin Ruilan raised her head and looked at Liang Ji: "Yes."
They all looked at Qin Ruilan and asked doubtfully: "You?"
Qin Ruilan shook his head: "No, it's my father. Qin Yuandao, the second-rank official minister."
Everyone suddenly realized that Mr. Qin, as an official within the six ministries, had the right to inspect the documents. Furthermore, it also related to the reduction of officials. Qin Yuandao had also been involved, but Lu Gaohong covered the sky with one hand and prevented Qin Yuandao from discovering it.
.
If Qin Yuandao could go and look at the documents, the people in the Sixth Department would not be suspicious. After all, as a minister, it is extremely normal for him to have a legitimate reason to take a look at the documents. This is much better than Liang Ji and others.
"But..." Qin Ruilan hesitated again, "My father is also on the invitation list, and he can't leave the palace now. I'm afraid he is in the Qinzheng Palace, and Lu Gaohong is there too."
Yes, this is indeed a difficult problem. Among the few people, only Liang Ji and Zhao Zhao were able to leave the palace. However, they could only find the body but could not get the documents. It was really embarrassing.
Everyone fell silent. It was not easy to bring down Lu Huiling. There were so many difficulties that needed to be overcome. Compared to Lu Huiling and Lu Gaohong, they could kill people invisible easily.
"I'll figure this out. I'll take Mr. Qin out of the palace safely. I must get the documents." Liang Ji said firmly.
If two officials, Lu Gaohong and Liang Fengmian, one civil and one military, could live in harmony, why would the empire not be able to live a hundred years without any worries?
However, Lu Gaohong wanted to fight with Liang Fengmian. Liang Fengmian had always maintained a neutral attitude in the court. Lu Gaohong failed to win over Liang Fengmian, so he tried to squeeze him out in the court. As a result, the General's Palace and the Prime Minister's Palace had always been at odds.
The Prime Minister's Mansion has repeatedly bullied the Liang Mansion, and even that worthless Lu Chen dared to mock them openly.
Now that he could overthrow Lu Gaohong, Liang Ji couldn't hold his breath, and naturally he would not let go of this golden opportunity.
If the two difficult opponents, Lu Gaohong and Lu Huiling, can be eliminated at once, then the Crown Prince Qi Jingyang will have no helpers. The Crown Princess Zhao Peiyu's mother's family is far away in Shu, and the King of Shu is not allowed to enter Beijing without the holy will. I'm afraid.
It is difficult to give Qi Jingyang any support.
And when Qi Jingqin returns to the court in triumph, it will probably be the time for the emperor to change his position.
Everyone here is on the same front as Liang Huanqing and Qi Jingqin. Regardless of selfish reasons, they all hope that Qi Jingqin can ascend the throne. They all see Qi Jingyang's ability and he is not the emperor at all.
In this way, it will be a good thing for the country and the people.
"Okay, then brother must be careful during this trip. Zhao Zhao, you must protect brother." Liang Huanqing was worried. Whenever they were about to do something, Liang Huanqing could not let go.
Although it is not a particularly dangerous thing now, Liang Huanqing has developed this habit since he was a child. Liang Fengmian and Qi Jingqin have been on the war for half a year. Whenever they hear the news of the war, Liang Huanqing can't sleep all night long.
I'm afraid some bad news will come.
This is also the reason why Liang Huanqing didn't take the initiative to inquire about the news. Regardless of victory or defeat, she just wanted to see them come back safely. This was also her wish since she was a child.
Zhao Zhao nodded solemnly, clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, Princess, I will protect the general with my life."
But they all knew in their hearts that at a critical moment, Liang Ji might have to take time to protect them.
"Don't worry Huanqing, this matter won't be a problem for my brother." Liang Ji's firm eyes revealed a little tenderness.
"Yeah." Liang Huanqing nodded.
"Then let's go first." Liang Ji naturally took Qi Wangshu's hand and walked out. This action was so natural that no one had any strange expressions.
But Qi Wangshu was a little surprised. This was the first time Liang Ji took the initiative to contact her. Oh no, the second time, if the hug just now is included...
Qi Wangshu turned to hold Liang Ji's hand tightly and followed him out. He turned back to Liang Huanqing and said, "Huanqing, wait for me. I will be back soon."
They all knew that when Concubine Mei woke up, they would go together to be interrogated by the emperor.
Liang Huanqing nodded in the direction of Qi Wangshu.
After Qi Wangshu, Liang Ji, Zhao Zhao and Qingyin left, everyone looked at Liang Huanqing: "What should we do now? Are we going to find Mr. Zhi to persuade her to testify?"
