Six years later, I and my four cubs blew up my ex-husband's house

He did not beat around the bush and said, "Brother Yan Jue, now that my father has passed away, it should not make much difference who will succeed his son.

I also have confidence that as long as you are willing to form a united front with me, it will not be impossible for you to lead the country to greater heights in the future.

When I am firmly on the throne, I can satisfy you with whatever conditions you want, or even if you want a higher position. "

At that time, Lu Yanjue just made it up.

I thought this person would keep quiet for a while, but now he comes to me again to ask about this matter...

Lu Yanjue was impatient, so his tone of voice became even colder.

"Third Prince, you are joking. My interest is in researching medicine. I believe you also understand that other important ministers of state can assist me in this kind of thing!

I don't usually manage things, I just perform the duties of the Punishment Hall when needed... The position is just a decoration for me, I don't have too high requirements!"

In fact, a few years ago, the king wanted to grant him the higher title of 'Duke'.

But Lu Yanjue didn't want to be too ostentatious, so he refused directly.

Therefore, the price offered by the third prince was not tempting to him at all.

The third prince had expected this, but he didn't care. He smiled and said, "Although it's true that there are important ministers of state, I think the Punishment Hall is the top priority."

At this point, a hint of unnoticeable greed flashed across his eyes. He looked at Lu Yanjue and said, "It's strange to say that since Brother Yanjue doesn't interfere in the affairs of the royal family, why did he take charge of the Punishment Hall in the first place?"

Lu Yanjue replied calmly: "The position that the king forced upon me, of course I can't refuse it."

The third prince pretended to be kind and said, "Father is really so stupid. He doesn't understand you at all. How can you handle such a heavy workload? If you feel tired, you can find someone to share the burden with you!"

Lu Yanjue smiled calmly...

So this is the purpose of winning me over?

It seems that the Third Prince does not really want his assistance, but wants to be able to control the power of the Punishment Hall.

After all, the people in the Punishment Hall were trained by him personally. Each of them has terrifying skills and is a killing machine comparable to a small army.

His plan is quite sound.

Lu Yanjue sneered in his heart and said, "It's not hard. In fact, the people in the Punishment Hall are quite idle. The royal family has been stable in recent years, and no major events have happened, so no one has been punished. Therefore, it can't be said to be hard."

The third prince was stopped and a gloomy look flashed across his eyes, but he still smiled warmly, "That's true... Then let's not talk about this! I came here tonight, in addition to chatting with you, there is one more thing...

This is my uncle’s daughter and my cousin. Her name is Aisha and she just turned twenty this year!

I heard that the Earl likes this type of girls, so I brought her here for you to take a look. If you like her, you can keep her."

The third prince raised his chin and signaled to Aisha, "Go over and say hello to the Earl."

Seeing this, Aisha quickly took two steps forward and glanced at him shyly, "Hello, Mr. Count."

Lu Yanjue narrowed his eyes and looked at Aisha.

When he came in just now, he naturally noticed the existence of this girl.

But at that time, I didn't know the other party's intention, so I didn't ask.

I didn't expect that I would make this plan.

Pei Yan couldn't help but follow and take a few glances.

After a while, I suddenly realized.

This girl looks...her temperament is somewhat similar to Miss Jiang!

It seems that the third prince knows something about the Earl, so he wants to use it to get people here!

Since forcing power failed, he decided to try the "marriage alliance" route?

Pei Yan suddenly felt that this Third Prince was courting death!

You know, the reason why the Earl was involved with Miss Jiang was because he sent someone to plot against her.

Now... he brought Aisha here again and asked the Earl to accept her. It was like a disguised threat.

It was like telling the Earl that he knew about his relationship with Miss Jiang...

If it had happened before, perhaps the Earl would not have paid any attention to it.

But now, Miss Jiang is obviously a special person to him.

A few days ago, I even planned to confess my feelings, but it was ruined by this third prince.

The Earl has been very angry because he hasn't been able to go back these days!

Now he dares to jump up to me again, he is really not afraid of death!

Pei Yan silently lit a candle for him in his heart.

These three princes will be finished sooner or later!

While he was looking at her with sympathy, Aisha on the other side was looking at Lu Yanjue with burning eyes.

She was delighted when she learned that her cousin was going to bring her to the Count.

After all, who wouldn’t like someone who is in a high position of power?

The key is that he is so handsome!!!

Lu Yanlu turned a blind eye to him, and said coldly, "Where did the Third Prince hear this news? It may not be accurate! I don't like this. Please go back if you have nothing else to do. I want to rest!"

After saying this, without giving the other party a chance to respond, he ordered Pei Yan, "Show him away."

Aisha's expression froze, and she looked extremely aggrieved.

Pei Yan walked forward and made a gesture of invitation.

"Third Prince, please go back."

The third prince looked very unhappy when he saw that Lu Yanjue refused to listen.

But he didn't dare to get really angry with Lu Yanjue, so he could only say: "My father's funeral will be held tomorrow. I hope that after it's over, Brother Yanjue will change his mind."

After saying that, he took his people away.

Pei Yan couldn't help but frown as he watched them leave.

"Normally when a king dies, there are many complicated things to prepare, and it takes at least ten days, or even more, before the funeral is held. This time, it only took five days! Isn't it a bit too fast?"

Lu Yanjue sneered and said, "Because he feels guilty, he naturally wants to destroy the 'evidence' quickly! He's afraid that something will be found out!"

Pei Yan couldn't help but worry: "What should we do then?"

These days, the Earl has been looking for the cause of the king's death, but he hasn't found it yet!

Lu Yanjue calmly drank a sip of water and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Just wait for the news. I believe... there will be a result tonight!"

The third prince stopped him and would not let him get close to the king, fearing that he would investigate the cause of death.

But he forgot that he had spies everywhere in the palace.

……

Back in the castle, Jiang Ruoli had a rare good night's sleep after getting Yu Wanjun's assurance.

Unfortunately, I had a nightmare in the middle of the night.

She dreamed that Lu Yanjue was surrounded and covered in blood.

In her dream, she desperately called his name, but Lu Yanjue didn't respond.

When she was awakened, she was covered in cold sweat and was still frightened.

Because of this incident, she suddenly couldn't sleep well and tossed and turned for a long time.

Finally, she simply got out of bed and went to the study to read a book to pass the time.

After so many days of rest, she is now basically able to walk around.

Still can't do any violent movements.

After she arrived, she continued to read the foreign medical book that Lu Yanjue had translated for her.

The man's powerful handwriting calmed her down a bit, and her panic dissipated a lot.

Halfway through, she was about to record a key point, but found that she had forgotten to take a pen, so she got up and walked to Lu Yanjue's desk to borrow a pen.

When I took it and turned around, I accidentally took the documents on the desk with me.

The document was knocked askew and is about to fall off.

Seeing this, Jiang Ruoli hurriedly put the documents back to their original place!

But at this moment, she noticed a few pages of paper sticking out from under the document.

There seems to be a name on it?

Jiang Ruoli was stunned.

What is this?

She subconsciously moved the top few documents away.

In a moment, I was caught off guard and saw my medical record...
