Chapter 150 The truth about the Lu family's treason

After saying so much, Youyou lay on Bai Jin's back, feeling a little tired.

"Whether you believe it or not..."

"I believe!"

Sheng Jing's eyes were cold, but he said firmly: "I believe you!"

"My father-in-law has long ago sent a message saying that there is a traitor in the Tiger Wing Army, asking me to be careful. I have also sent the Black Feather Guards to check all the people on the traitor list."

"To this day, the Black Feather Guards have been blocked by many obstacles, and Yu Yi has been injured. I believe that the enemy has been alerted."

He could ignore everything else, not listen to it or believe it, but he could never accept what Youyou said, that Zhiwan would die suddenly.

His Zhiwan has already endured the pain of losing his daughter, and should not be harmed by a treacherous person again!

Lu Zhiwan suddenly heard so much news. Even though she had heard some of it before, she still felt dizzy and her whole body felt like it was falling into an ice cellar.

Especially since she heard that the Lu family had colluded with the enemy and committed treason less than a year ago, she was extremely panicked.

"Brother Jing, in the spring of the eighth year of Daliang, the Lu family was accused of treason..."

"There's only half a year left..."

Lu Zhiwan's face was pale and her voice was hoarse.

She knew that the Black Feather Guards had already begun investigating the matter, but after so much time had passed, the progress was very slow.

Even the Black Feather Guards' secret investigation did not go smoothly.

She didn't know how long her father could hold on?

How long can the Lu family hold on?

Half a year is a short time and passes in a flash.

We are not alerting them now. If they are cruel and ruthless, what if we advance the time?

I heard from Youyou that they had been searching for ten years but had not found a solution, so what should they do in just six months?

Lu Zhiwan was so panicked that tears were about to fall. She really didn't want her father to fight on the battlefield all his life and be stigmatized like this before he died.

This is a great shame for a general who swore to defend his country to the death and would rather die on the battlefield!

Her voice choked as she grasped at the last straw and looked at the air in front of her. She knew there was a way to break the spell there.

"Youyou, auntie begs you, since you have such magical powers, can you help the Lu family, help me..."

Youyou touched his chest and felt even more uncomfortable.

She attributed this feeling to her unwillingness to see good people being framed.

"Don't worry, pretty auntie. Youyou will help you."

"The time when he was accused of treason was on New Year's Eve. During the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, His Majesty will issue an imperial edict to order General Lu to return to the capital to celebrate the New Year."

"However, on the New Year's Eve when the whole family was reunited, the Xu family secretly entered the palace and produced ironclad evidence that General Lu was collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. His Majesty waited overnight and sent someone to the palace the next day."

"We found letters between the old lady and General Lu in her yard and room. These letters are irrefutable evidence."

"Nail the Lu family to death!"

"Pretty auntie, you can secretly check the dealings between the Lu and Xu families to see if there are any private letters, copied articles or books involved."

Lu Zhiwan stepped back suddenly, and Sheng Jing quickly supported her: "What's wrong with Zhiwan?"

Lu Zhiwan said in disbelief: "Xu Liya once asked her mother to borrow her father's notebook."

The day before yesterday, when her mother came over, she told her that Xu Liya had borrowed her father's notebooks from his youth on the pretext of appreciation and reference.

When my father was young, he studied military books diligently and wrote many notes.

Later, when she and her brother were involved in military campaigns, they also studied their father's letters.

At that time, Lu Zhiwan still thought that Xu Wenyin was too annoying. As long as she didn't cause trouble for her, she would lend her the notebook. It was no big deal.

When I heard it today, how could it be harmless?

This is simply a murderous ghost!

"Yuyi, Yuliu! Go to the old lady of the Lu family's room and yard and look for any suspicious letters. If not, keep an eye on her interactions with the Xu family!"

In the past, the old lady favored the three from the Xu family. She didn’t know how she would react if they tried to use her to overthrow her husband’s family and kill her husband, son, and daughter-in-law.

Yu Yi and Yu Liu dealt with the poisonous snakes in the room, and then went to Lu's house overnight.

Sheng Jing comforted Lu Zhiwan: "It's okay, Zhiwan, now we have made preparations in advance, it will be fine."

Lu Zhiwan forced herself to cheer up and nodded reluctantly.

Sheng Jing wanted to help her sit down, but Bai Jin stopped him.

Youyou patted Bai Jin and said, "Xiaobai, please move aside and let the pretty aunt sit down."

Upon hearing this, Bai Jin turned sideways and lay down.

Sheng Jing stared at Bai Jin: "Thank you!"

Bai Jin rolled his eyes at him.

The Lu family's treasonous behavior has temporarily been dealt with, and the next issue is the Su family's cheating in the imperial examination.

"What about cheating in the imperial examination?" Sheng Jing asked.

Youyou floated to the stone table and sat cross-legged, face to face with Lu Zhiwan.

She didn't know why, but she always wanted to see Lu Zhiwan from a close distance.

Hearing Sheng Jing's question, Youyou replied, "In the spring of the twelfth year of Daliang, during the Spring Examination in the Golden Palace, a candidate will accuse the Minister of Revenue, Lord Su, of cheating in the imperial examination and buying and selling official positions, and his son, Su Xing, of robbing women and killing people!"

"This is a serious matter. For Concubine Hui's sake, the Su family was only detained temporarily. But somehow the news leaked out, and all of a sudden, the students who came to Beijing to take the imperial examination came out to attack the Su family and demanded an explanation from the court."

"Among these people, some are confused but unwilling to stop their careers here. Some are arranged by the Xu family in advance and have been plotting for several years just to overthrow the Minister of Revenue!"

"Not only because Concubine Hui is favored, but also because of the Shangshu Madam's family, the Qian family, which is as rich as a country! They want to replace the Qian family!"

"When Xiaobai and I went to Beijing, we discovered that the butler of the Qian Mansion had transferred 500,000 taels of silver in the name of the Qian family's head and the Su family. No one knows how many times this had happened before."

Sheng Jing immediately understood what Youyou meant, and he continued, "Using the Qian family as a treasury, you can withdraw money at will, and using the Su family as a scapegoat, what a good trick to get yourself off the hook!"

"The Xu family is full of civil officials. If you count the two generations before them, they were all great ministers. They have countless disciples and guests. The current queen is also from the Xu family. With such honors and favors, what on earth can they be dissatisfied with?"

Lu Zhiwan said bitterly: "No matter how much honor and favor you have, it can't compare to the top position among thousands of people!"

"Father and Uncle Qiao both command a large number of troops, but they have lived alone in Yanmen Mansion and Yuguang Mansion for a long time. They are afraid of being feared by those in higher positions."

"To put it bluntly, my mother, me, my brother, Empress Xian, and Shuyuan, which one of us is not a hostage left in the capital?"

"We all know this clearly in our hearts, but we are willing to stay here, just to avoid the emperor's fear, so that father can be treated more kindly after he is relieved of his military power in the future!"

"But some people are different. Giving once is a gift, giving twice is a matter of course, and giving three times starts to feel it's not enough!"

It’s no wonder Lu Zhiwan thought this way. Under the imperial power, we are all ants.
