Qi Jingqin looked at the dormitory in disbelief, then frowned and shook his head, looked at Zhao Qi and asked: "How is it possible? How could Huanqing do these things? What happened?"

I think back when they were worshiping the God of Flowers at the Qishan Palace, Zhao Peiyu and Lu Huiling used such a simple trick to make Liang Huanqing embarrassed in public. Now that Lu Gaohong is added to the mix, how can Liang Huanqing alone be their opponent?

It's not that Qi Jingqin underestimated Liang Huanqing, but based on his understanding of Liang Huanqing and Lu Gaohong, this matter was indeed impossible.

Chu Qi also understood that based on their previous understanding of Liang Huanqing, they saw that Liang Huanqing had a careless personality and a prominent family background that could be exploited. The important thing was that she didn't seem to have much power, and she was so simple that Qi Jingqin could control her very well.

Now she has really made good use of her feelings to capture Liang Huanqing. She has obviously fallen in love with Qi Jingqin wholeheartedly. Qi Jingqin, Si Nanping and Chu Qi all know this.

"This incident has endangered the life of the princess and the prince's career." Chu Qi frowned and said seriously, "That's why the princess has to get rid of them."

Qi Jingqin couldn't accept it for a while, but Chu Qi must have his own basis for saying this: "Where did you know?"

"On that New Year's Eve feast, the incident caused a storm in the city. In the end, almost everyone in the palace knew about it." Zhu Qi said, "Lu Huiling also became the emperor's concubine and entered the Minghua Hall, and then the incident was exposed. After that, he went crazy.

Ning Guta was exiled, and the emperor ordered people to take good care of her. She was the only one in the Lu family who was still alive. The rest, Mrs. Lu and Lu Chen, all died on the way to exile... It is said that it was Master Qin who did it, in order to... forever

No future trouble."

"What?" Qi Jingqin didn't expect that this incident would be so complicated. Such a big thing happened during the period when he was not in the capital. The court had undergone earth-shaking changes, but Chu Qi told himself that all of this was

It was done by Liang Huanqing.

Chu Qi couldn't believe it at the time, but after repeatedly confirming that it was indeed the case, he nodded solemnly and followed Qi Jingqin to the main hall and said: "It's a long story. Lu Huiling used herself and Mingxian

The queen's similar face danced on the war drums on the day when the prince set off for the expedition, and was then arranged by Lu Gaohong to be a female official next to the emperor. You also know, prince, that the emperor missed Empress Mingxian, and it didn't take long for him to be sealed four times.

As the concubine, you will enjoy the pampering of a special room."

"How can Lu Gaohong arrange this? He is not a member of the inner palace." Qi Jingqin shook his head, always feeling that something was fishy.

Chu Qi nodded, and then said: "At that time, after General Liang and the prince went to war, all the affairs of the court were handed over to Lu Gaohong, and the emperor trusted him very much. Come to think of it... this thing is also extremely easy to do, the court

During that time, the emperor was almost covered by Lu Gaohong's hand. Lu Huiling was charming and charming beside the emperor. The court and the harem almost became the Lu family's world. After that, Lu Huiling tried every means to make things difficult for the princess..."

"Stop talking about this, just tell us what happened at the feast?" Qi Jingqin interrupted Zhao Qi.

From Zhuo Qi's few words, Qi Jingqin could probably understand what happened during that time. It was simply that Lu Gaohong took advantage of their absence to go to the capital and wanted to hide the truth, win over the officials, and seek more helpers for the prince. He was worried that he would be

When the emperor found out, he seized on the emperor's fatal weakness - Lu Fushuang.

Lu Gaohong sent Lu Huiling to the palace. When she grew up, Lu Huiling's facial features looked like Lu Fushuang. With a little dressing up, she was no different from Lu Fushuang when she was young.

Eight years after Lu Fushuang's death, Qi Bingyu missed her every day. Therefore, when he met Lu Huiling, even if she was his niece, his son's cousin, and the youngest daughter of an important minister, Qi Bingyu naturally couldn't resist. Moreover,

, this was done intentionally by Lu Gaohong. In addition, Lu Huiling had previously been fond of Qi Jingqin. If he could find an opportunity to outnumber Liang Huanqing, he could suppress Liang Huanqing to satisfy his hatred.

Qi Jingqin could probably guess all of this, but what he was very curious about was the feast that determined the current situation of the court.

Chao Qi was speechless for a moment. After returning to the capital yesterday, Yuebai knew that Liang Huanqing was depressed, so he wanted to beg Chao Qi to speak more for Liang Huanqing in front of Qi Jingqin. Now Liang Huanqing loves Qi Jingqin wholeheartedly and can no longer leave.

, In addition, she suffered a lot because of Qi Jingqin before, which everyone can see.

Now Qi Jingqin asked Chu Qi to inquire about the details. Yue Bai told him the details. As a bystander, Chu Qi also felt sorry for the princess from the bottom of his heart. He wanted to tell the truth so that Qi Jingqin could feel that he was in love with her.

I felt guilty, but I didn't expect that Qi Jingqin was only interested in what he wanted to know.

Chu Qi had no choice but to continue: "On that day of the feast, Lu Huiling planned to have Yin Renzhao's daughter Yin Ruo persuade Concubine Mei. He then tampered with the feast and replaced the quiver that was supposed to be a flat-headed arrow.

Let Princess Wangshu take a real three-pronged feather arrow and shoot it at Princess Jing..."

"Another arrow?!" Qi Jingyang frowned slightly, and now he had reached the entrance of the main hall. He was about to go up the steps. When he heard this, he stopped and looked back at Chuo Qi, and asked doubtfully: "

Is the princess injured again?"

But this morning, I only saw the scars on Liang Huanqing's shoulders, not any other scars on her body.

"Fortunately, a little palace maid witnessed Lu Chen killing the palace maid who changed the quiver for them, and knew that Lu Huiling wanted to frame Princess Wangshu and take the opportunity to kill Princess Jing, so she found an opportunity to enter the hunting ground and replaced Princess Jing.

Princess Jing blocked the arrow." Zhao Qi glanced at Prince Jing and saw his frown, so he continued.

"This palace maid used to work in the imperial garden. When Lu Huiling forced Princess Jing's maid to death, she also provided clues. Later, she made some mistakes and was forgiven by Princess Wangshu and Princess Wangshu, so she wanted to repay her kindness."

Chu Qi thought about telling all this, so as to make it clearer. Yue Bai told him these. Chu Qi was a little surprised after hearing this. Lu Huiling was so bold that he violated her again and again.

Liang Huanqing.

"Lu Huiling?" Sure enough, Qi Jingqin's attention was focused on Lu Huiling, and then he asked, "Why did she do this?"

At the door of the main hall stood several palace maids who had been transferred from Yichun Palace. Qi Jingqin and Zhao Qi were discussing things, so they waved to let them go. Then they closed the door and sat down to talk.

"Don't you know, Your Majesty? Lu Huiling has been in love with Your Majesty for many years. When you married the Princess, she wished she would..." Chu Qi didn't say any more, but I guess Qi Jingqin already knew about it.

Qi Jingqin was busy with affairs and never paid attention to the love between men and women. This was one of the reasons why Concubine Mei was anxious to propose marriage to Qi Jingqin. He hung out with Si Nanping and Qi Qi all day long and never paid attention to the express hints of other girls.

Naturally, it makes people worried.

When Qi Jingqin heard this, he frowned. He knew that Lu Huiling was always pestering him and sending things to Prince Jing's Mansion every three days, but Qi Jingqin never cared about this. He didn't expect that Lu Huiling would be so perverted.

The feeling of pride wanted to hurt Liang Huanqing - he should have discovered it when he was in the Qishan Palace.

Thinking of this, Qi Jingqin couldn't help but feel a little more guilty towards Liang Huanqing.

"What happened next?" But the guilt was fleeting, and the most important thing in Qi Jingqin's mind right now was to figure out the truth and the entire process as soon as possible.

He is new to the current officialdom of Shangjing and needs to understand many things. Now that Lu Gaohong is not here and he has just returned to Shangjing, Qi Jingyang will definitely be watching him with eager eyes. It is not okay to not understand everything. What if he violates some taboos?

All previous efforts will be wasted.

Now is the most critical moment for Qi Jingqin. Qi Jingyang has lost his powerful minions, and he has made some unrivaled achievements at the right time. The emperor will naturally give him preferential treatment. As long as he can strike while the iron is hot, why worry about the throne not being his?

Qi Jingqin became even more anxious to know the cause and effect of the matter. He looked at Chu Qi and asked anxiously.

"Later, before she died, the palace maid told Princess Jing and Princess Wangshu everything she saw. Princess Jing probably felt that this matter was related to the prince and the country, and she was afraid that it was done by His Highness, so she asked Liang Ji to investigate

, he also found the concubine Yin Rui in the palace, and then Liang Ji and Mr. Qin went to Dali Temple to search for the documents. Yin Rui's father, Yin Renzhao, was a corrupt official who embezzled food and fodder money from the front line. Lu Gaohong concealed the truth and used the opportunity to exonerate him.

Yin Zhe took the blame for them."

Chu Qi was arranging his thoughts while talking, and wanted to tell Qi Jingqin clearly, but the cause and effect of this matter was so confusing. It was obvious that Qi Jingqin was also confused.

"Then how can this bring about the destruction of the Lu family?" Qi Jingqin pondered for a long time and asked a question, "What does the dismissal of officials by the imperial court have to do with this matter?"

Chu Qi lowered his head and pondered for a while. This matter was too complicated. He was thinking about what else he had missed. Then he raised his head and said: "When Mr. Qin was investigating the Yin Renzhao incident, he met Fang Lu on the way. They were chasing

The killing of Zhao Zhao was witnessed by Liang Ji and Mr. Qin, who forced him to testify against Lu Gaohong, and then the evidence was discovered in the Prime Minister Lu's Mansion. The next day, all the officials involved in the case were sealed."

"Does General Liang know about this matter?" Qi Jingqin nodded, lowered his head and frowned in thought for a while, and then thought about letting Liang Fengmian know about this matter.

"Of course, Mr. Qin will definitely tell him about this," said Chu Qi.

"Now, I just don't know what Qin Yuandao thinks." Qi Jingqin lowered his head and muttered. Qin Yuandao has always been an upright person. He usually doesn't take sides like Liang Fengmian. Now that he is in a high position, I don't know what he thinks.

"What happened to Lu Gaohong, the emperor no longer trusts anyone, but the position of prime minister is indispensable. Mr. Qin is sitting on pins and needles now in the position of prime minister. He must not be able to protect himself." Chu Qi frowned.

, analyzed seriously.

Hearing what Zhuo Qi said, Qi Jingqin felt that he might have acted too hastily. The current situation in the court seemed stable, but in fact it was not. There were too many intricate details that needed to be checked. More importantly, the emperor was very suspicious at the moment and did not trust anyone.

, they have to be more cautious when doing things, and they must not take credit or be arrogant!

After Qi Jingqin left, Liang Huanqing sat on the bed wrapped in quilt, not wanting to move at all. Thinking about how calm and steady she was during the days without Qi Jingqin, she could handle many things with ease, but when Qi Jingqin appeared, she became confused.

, I don’t know how to face it.

Liang Huanqing touched her heart and formalized her feelings. She was already completely devoted to Qi Jingqin, but Qi Jingqin didn't seem to have reached this point with her.

Liang Huanqing shook his head, recalling the absurd night last night. The two were originally in a cooperative relationship, but Liang Huanqing somehow managed to show a smile, and a child-like smile appeared on his face.

She touched her red face and tried to cool herself down with cold hands. After what happened last night, Liang Huanqing actually felt confident in their relationship: Qi Jingqin was just a mortal, and she didn't believe that she couldn't impress him.

heart.

Just as she was thinking this, Yue Bai was at the door with some water for washing. After the embarrassing things that happened this morning, Yue Bai knew how to knock on the door first: "Princess, Princess, I am Yue Bai. Is it convenient to come in now?"

?”

Liang Huanqing quickly came to his senses, tightened his quilt, and then said: "Come in!"

Yuebai took a deep breath and recalled the scene this morning, her face couldn't help but blush. She hesitated for a while, then pushed the door open and went in. After putting down the toiletries, she knelt beside the bed and lowered her head to admit her mistake.

: "Princess, this slave deserves to be punished, please punish me."

Liang Huanqing was a little confused at first, and then remembered that Yue Bai suddenly appeared in the room this morning. He quickly buried his face in the quilt and said coquettishly: "You! Why are you here this morning!"

Yuebai blamed herself in her heart, fearing that because of herself, Prince Jing and Princess Jing would cast a shadow on this matter, which would affect the prince's descendants... If from now on they... wouldn't there be no young prince?

…

I have to say that Yue Bai really thought about it a lot, even thinking about things that were unknown how far into the future... If this was really the case, wouldn't she be a sinner through the ages...

"Princess, forgive me! This slave deserves to die, slave... this morning, I thought I would serve the princess early and get up and go to the Yichun Palace to pay my respects to Concubine Mei. I didn't know that the prince was also here, so... Princess... please punish me.

." Yue Bai didn't want to talk any more. It would be too embarrassing to continue talking like this, so he leaned down and kowtowed to admit his mistake.

Liang Huanqing felt annoyed. She thought that Yue Bai had seen everything and blamed herself so much. However, none of this was Yue Bai's fault. She usually slept alone. She never thought that there would be a man in her bed.

, Yuebai didn’t know, it was normal...but, it was also really embarrassing.

"You... that's all... there's no need to mention this matter again. Please help me get up and wash up. The prince is still waiting in the main hall." Liang Huanqing slowly poked his face out of the quilt, and then took a deep breath.

, and then said.
