Chapter 372 Private Reception
Gao Qian has changed into regular clothes and should have just finished handling court affairs.
"I thought I came at the wrong time."
He raised his eyebrows, saying he was curious, but in fact he didn't take it seriously, and there was a little fatigue in his eyes.
With the war on the front lines and the fighting within the court, how can we not be nervous?
Lu Wanying didn't notice at all and just smiled: "How could it be? This time is just right."
As he said that, he was about to go to the other side of the imperial garden, but saw Liang Huan stop where he was, raising his eyebrows: " Eying, please don’t let me down.”
She smiled meaningfully.
Gao Qian also seemed to notice something strange, and couldn't help but look at her twice: "What are you doing again?"
Lu Wanying took one by the hand and smiled: "I'll wait for you guys. After seeing it, let’s talk about who is making the fuss.”
Gao Qian was slightly surprised, but he was actually a little interested.
Liang Huan asked Xiang Lan to send Xi'er and Gao Xin back, and then followed Lu Wanying.
I didn’t intend to get involved in her affairs, but I was clearly prepared, so I had to see what kind of trouble she was going to make.
On the way, Lu Wanying was in a very good mood and could not hide her excitement.
Liang Huan followed without saying a word. This road was not going towards the harem, but rather like going to the library.
Gao Qian frowned: "Aren't you going to the Yaohua Palace?"
Lu Wanying smiled in his eyes: "Don't worry, we'll find out as soon as we get there."
The library is hidden behind Chunliu. There were also servants sweeping the room in the open space in front of them, but there seemed to be a figure of a palace man inside the door. He kept looking out the door, and he looked familiar.
Liang Huan deliberately lagged a few steps behind, whispered a few words to Yuan Zhi who was following him, and then gave Yuan Zhi a look, and she immediately understood.
When the palace servants saw the emperor coming, they hurriedly dropped what they were doing and knelt down to greet him.
The palace attendant who was looking at the door suddenly saw the holy driver, turned around and was about to run in, but it seemed that someone had been waiting there. As soon as she took a step, she was grabbed by someone and her mouth was covered.
This posture was clearly intended to catch an adulterer...
Liang Huan glanced at Gao Qian, who was half a step ahead of her.
His face was visibly darkened, but Lu Wanying's smile deepened.
Liang Han pursed her lips and hesitated to speak.
The palace servants were held to one side.
Lu Wanying rushed up first, patted her face, and sarcastically said: "Why did you run away when you saw the Holy Master and didn't greet you? Are you a thief?"
The palace man was arrested He was gagged and speechless, his eyes were wide open, and he was shaking his head desperately.
"Wait obediently." Lu Wanying looked at her with a sneer.
After that, I looked back at Liang Huan and then at Gao Qian: "This library has been built for a few years, and there are only some old books in it, but who can guarantee that there won't be something new? ”
Liang Huan's eyes narrowed, Gao Qian pursed his lips, and his face became cold.
Lu Wanying turned a blind eye and led the people into the building.
Liang Han had just stepped across the threshold, but she could already hear someone pulling and tugging upstairs, making a lot of noise.
When Liang Huan and Gao Qian walked up the last flight of stairs, they saw heavy bookshelves blocking the dim light in the room, and in the small open space in the middle, several servants were holding down a man and a woman kneeling down.
The woman, dressed as a palace maid, tried to struggle, while the man, dressed in official uniform, lowered his head and remained silent.
Hearing the footsteps of the visitor, they all looked over.
Liang Han saw the man's face clearly and was stunned. Her feet seemed to be filled with lead and she couldn't take another step. The woman stared over with red eyes, full of hatred, as if she wanted to eat her alive.
Liang Han felt nothing, and could only stare at the man, his head confused.
Actually, before coming, she could probably guess what Lu Wanying was going to do and who it was related to.
She couldn't tell whether it was because she was holding on to expectations or something else, because this was something she had always wanted to do, but she had never found a suitable knife. But now that she had a knife, she only regretted it.
No matter how much you regret, it is irreversible.
Lu Wanying covered her mouth and turned back, looking at Gao Qian in surprise, pretending: "Cousin, when did this library become a cold palace?"
Palace The servants were all shocked, with pale faces and did not dare to say anything. The deposed queen, who was supposed to stay in the cold palace, actually dressed up as a palace official and went to the palace with the foreign ministers——
Liang Huan woke up with a start and looked at Gao Gao on one side. Qian, his whole body was cold and his face was ashen.
"Zhou Yun, you are very courageous."
Cao Ruomi shook his head in horror and hurriedly kowtowed and explained: "No, Your Majesty, someone deliberately framed my concubine and framed Captain Zhou. We, we are innocent."
Lu Wanying shook his head and smiled, stepped forward step by step, bent down, and looked at Cao Ruomi with great regret: "Sister-in-law, how could you have a private meeting with a foreign minister?"
Cao Ruomi gritted his teeth and calmed down, clenched his palms with both hands, and his eyes were filled with tears. It was no longer the angry look in his eyes before, but he was extremely aggrieved.
"Your Majesty, I, I am really unjust. I and Captain Zhou are really, really framed..."
She was defending in her mouth, but suddenly remembered something, looked at Zhou Yun, quickly took out a note from her arms, and raised her hand to present it.
"Your Majesty, you see, I came to meet with Zhou Taiwei only after receiving this note. This is clearly someone's intention -"
Gao Qian's face was gloomy. Staring at her, he interrupted coldly: "Ms. Cao, you can't wait to tell me how you have always communicated with each other in private?"
Cao Ruomi was startled, with tears on his face. The lips moved.
He is talking about the history...
Lu Wanying snatched the note from her hand, read it over with a smile, and shook her head: "Sister-in-law, the tone of this note does not sound like the intimacy that should be expected between a concubine and a foreign minister."
She looked at the man standing aside with a curved smile and said, "Lieutenant Zhou, do you have anything to say in defense?"
The smooth and luxurious official uniform quilt There were wrinkles and a look of embarrassment that didn't match his usual sobriety and sophistication. The peach blossom eyes that used to be full of smiles were completely devoid of any emotion, and were as dead as a cold pool.
Zhou Yun's heart sank, and he slowly raised his eyes: "This is all -"
"This is all a misunderstanding." Liang Huan turned around and faced Gao Qian, Intercept Zhou Yun's words.
Gao Qian's face was completely dark, and his eyes staring at Liang Huan were so gloomy that they were almost dripping with water.
Liang Huan calmed down and faced his terrifying gaze calmly.
"Your Majesty, this is really a misunderstanding."
The smile on Lu Wanying's face suddenly disappeared. Before Gao Qian could speak, he stepped forward with a frown and pulled Liang Han. , pointing at the two people kneeling on the ground, said angrily:
"Misunderstanding? Eying, tell me, where is the misunderstanding? Why did a sinner in the cold palace come to the library without consent? He came as soon as he came, but Just pretending to be a palace official to meet with foreign ministers?”
Liang Huan remained unmoved. He saw the right moment and snatched the note from her hand, tearing it into pieces. He took a look at the large carved window not far away, walked over in a few steps, and stretched out his hand in front of everyone. Scraps of paper flew out.
Ignoring Gao Qian's expression, he turned around and looked at the crowd: "The Lord said, this is a misunderstanding. Don't you understand?"
I don't want the words to end here. , I heard someone over there say:
"Why are there so many people here? What happened? As soon as I entered the door of the library, I heard people shouting and screaming from upstairs!"
The palace people in front of her got out of the way, and the Queen Mother walked forward with a straight face, being helped.
Lu Wanying smiled and went up to greet her: "Aunt, you are finally here!"
