Spring in the East Palace

Chapter 25: Retaliation is inevitable

There were many rumors in Yan State that these two people had a homosexual tendency, but no one dared to speak out.

After all, Donggong doesn't care about his life when he goes crazy, so it's ridiculous to say that if Lu Huainan gets cruel, he can save your life.

"Lu Huainan, could you please stop doing such bloody things and learn from my kindness?" Qin Chuyan shook his head, unable to bear to watch.

Li Dequan, secret guard: "..."

The prince is kind? That would be the biggest joke of Yan State.

This made Lu Huainan look at Qin Chuyan calmly: "That blind Miss Shen said you are kind?"

Qin Chuyan: "..."

The next moment, Lu Huainan bluntly exposed this lie of "kindness".

"There is a rumor in Kyoto that His Highness is Miss Shen's backer? Even when Miss Shen returned to the capital from the countryside, she was still wearing His Highness's socks." Lu Huainan read every word clearly.

"Not only that, Your Highness also had a change of heart and mercifully saved Miss Shen from falling into the wolf's den?" Lu Huainan looked at Qin Chuyan with a forced smile.

Qin Chuyan: "..."

"If that's the case, next time His Majesty asks me about this, I will report it. At least I will be spared from His Majesty's nagging for three months, and I won't be rumored in Kyoto that I and Your Highness are in a relationship."

When Lu Huainan wanted to be mean, he really didn't give any face at all.

I don’t care whether you are from the Eastern Palace or not.

Li Dequan was listening not far away, silently breaking into a cold sweat. The villa had just calmed down, so Lord Lu couldn't help but add fuel to the fire?

Sure enough, the next second, Qin Chuyan's sword came directly towards Lu Huainan.

Lu Huainan took the lead in confronting Qin Chuyan, and in an instant, swords flashed and sabers appeared.

This time, there was no blood-curdling rage in the villa, but everyone targeted the top-quality pear wood, leaving holes and pits everywhere.

Li Dequan sighed. His Highness and Lord Lu were probably wasting resources. They didn't even spare this thousand-year-old pear tree. They would be struck by lightning.

While the two were fighting, Lu Huainan did not forget his business.

"Your Highness is staying in the other courtyard, and there is a commotion in the court to depose Your Highness." Lu Huainan dodged a sword and pointed his sword at Qin Chuyan.

"Who is it?" Qin Chuyan and Lu Huainan were fighting, but his breath remained steady.

"I have made a list of about 20 to 30 people." Lu Huainan continued, "There are people from all major factions. Who do you think should be dealt with first?"

Qin Chuyan knocked away Lu Huainan's sword, and the two of them fell from the sky and stood on the ground.

Qin Chuyan's sword was still pointed at Lu Huainan's chest: "Can't you stop causing trouble for me? Buddhism is not suitable for killing people."

Who was the murderer just now? A ghost? Nonsense.

"It is said in Kyoto that Lord Lu relies on his close relationship with the king to help the tyrants to do evil everywhere. If he offends you slightly, he will be beheaded on the spot. If you don't keep quiet, sooner or later the emperor will force you to come before the court and confess your guilt. Let's see how you can continue to be the commander of the Imperial Guard!" Qin Chuyan retracted the sword.

Lu Huainan sneered: "Next month, Your Highness will return to the palace, and the only thing left before the Emperor will be the memorial impeaching Your Highness. I will then retire with my mission accomplished."

Don't you think about who is behind all these things?

Qin Chuyan was too lazy to pay attention to Lu Huainan. He lowered his head to glance at the list handed over by this man, with cruelty in his eyes.

"Just kill these people as you see fit." Qin Chuyan said cruelly and ruthlessly.

Lu Nanhuai hummed: "It's not a pity to kill these scapegoats, but it can serve as a warning to the people behind this."

Lu Huainan sneered as he said this: "This person is really amazing. He hid silently and no trace has been found until now. If there is any clue, this clue will be completely cut off."

This is indeed strange.

When the State of Yan recovered from the turmoil, the people of Yan believed that the person who made the greatest contribution was the great general Pingxi Wang Zhan Beifeng.

But the few people who knew the truth knew very well that although Zhan Beifeng had made great achievements in battle, the person who was ruling the country behind the scenes was the Crown Prince Qin Chuyan of the Eastern Palace.

He was born to the most beloved queen of the current emperor Qin Yue, but the queen died early due to illness.

Qin Yue naturally gave all his love to Qin Chuyan, which naturally caused dissatisfaction among other concubines.

After the Queen passed away, the Imperial Noble Consort took charge of the harem, and the harem struggles and the battle for the crown prince officially began.

If Qin Chuyan doesn't cause trouble, he can sit safely until the day he ascends the throne. After all, the emperor's partiality is obvious to all.

But wherever this person from the East Palace goes, there will be chaos and most of the memorials submitted to the emperor are about impeaching the East Palace.

The emperor usually turns a blind eye to it, but when the memorials pile up, he will call the people from the Eastern Palace to his side and scold them.

Therefore, the Eastern Palace was in chaos, and the unlucky ones were the people below, such as Li Dequan and Lu Huainan, who had a close personal relationship with the Eastern Palace.

Not only did the East Palace provoke these old ministers in the court, he even spared no effort to deal with the people from the small border countries and vassal states. As long as the East Palace was displeased, this place would be razed to the ground tomorrow.

Therefore, no matter where the East Palace is, assassinations can happen at any time.

Assassins came one after another, and it would be a few days without any peace. The servants in the East Palace were used to it.

And now, the rising power of Yan State has quietly taken control of shipping and salt. The fact that it can be so arrogant must be related to the court.

But you can't find any trace at all. As long as you get the slightest clue, the other party can wipe it out without a trace.

You know, shipping and salt are the lifeline of a country and will not be lost to important officials who hold military power.

This back and forth, his intention is despicable.

In addition, the case is now underway to impeach the Crown Prince, and they are using the excuse that a small country on the border is causing trouble and asking the Crown Prince to lead troops to war. All these things put together are just too much of a coincidence.

"Check Shen Zhenzhen." Qin Chuyan looked up and spoke in a deep voice.

Lu Huainan raised his eyebrows: "The second daughter of the Shen family? Shen Changsheng raised her with great care. The door of the prefect of Beijing was almost broken, but she was rejected by Shen Changsheng every time."

Lu Huainan casually mentioned Kyoto’s evaluation of Shen Zhenzhen.

It's nothing more than being so beautiful as to captivate fish and geese, and knowing how to advance and retreat appropriately.

Then he smiled and said, "Your Highness has really strong tastes. Why don't you just make one the Crown Princess and the other the Consort?"

If it were someone else speaking nonsense in the East Palace, he would have died countless times.

Only Lu Nanhuai could stand in front of the East Palace as if nothing had happened.

Qin Chuyan sneered and took the responsibility: "Last time, your father asked me if Lord Lu had a favorite woman. Next time, I will tell your father that the Prime Minister's daughter Xiu Wan'er is suitable. This will prevent your father from thinking that Lord Lu and I have a homosexual tendency."

Lu Huainan: "..."

The Eastern Palace is indeed vindictive.

"Your Highness, please discuss the matter at hand." Lu Huainan said with gritted teeth.

Qin Chuyan sneered and then slowly said: "The Japanese king sent Shen Muyin back to the Shen Mansion. At five o'clock in the morning, he saw Shen Zhenzhen getting off a carriage and quietly entering the Shen Mansion."

What kind of good girl would come out at this time? Isn't this a night out for a wild man?

What's more, she is the second daughter of the Shen family, who is very famous in Kyoto.

If the prefect of Beijing likes someone, he can openly declare it and ask the emperor to grant the marriage. Any man who is not blind should be interested in Shen Zhenzhen.

So this sneaky behavior makes people suspicious.
