Spring in the East Palace

Still, no words were spoken, but Shen Muyin arranged everything carefully.

Lu Nanhuai just stood there, and the deep meaning in his eyes told Shen Muyin that he had listened.

"Yeah." After a long time, Lu Nanhuai responded.

But Lu Nanhuai's eyes became much more serious when he looked at Shen Muyin.

Shen Muyin suddenly understood something: "Don't worry, I will never involve Princess Xuanhe in this anyway."

The shocking case in the previous life was the murder of Princess Xuanhe, which, coupled with Shen Muyin's identity, triggered a bloody battle between the two families.

In this life, Shen Muyin wants to stop this very thing. How can he not let the same mistake happen again?

So she spoke with such certainty and clarity in her eyes that it seemed as if she knew what would happen.

Lu Nanhuai nodded but didn't say anything.

Shen Muyin didn't stay there for long. When he turned around to leave, Lu Nanhuai suddenly spoke.

"Ms. Shen, he probably feels the same as I do and doesn't want you to be implicated." Lu Nanhuai said lightly.

This he is the East Palace.

Shen Muyin did not respond, because she knew better than anyone that she had been implicated and could not get out.

To be exact, she never came out.

What Lu Nanhuai meant was that he had his concerns about Princess Xuanhe.

"I understand. Don't worry, Lord Lu." Shen Muyin nodded, very sure.

Such eyes and words were very much like Donggong's determination. Lu Nanhuai said nothing and handed Shen Muyin an envelope.

"This is what he did over the years. It may not seem like a big deal on the surface, but it's not that simple if you look closely." Lu Nanhuai said calmly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the envelope fell into Shen Muyin's hands, and Lu Nanhuai turned and left.

Shen Muyin understood too well the weight of this evidence.

She nodded: "Thank you, Master Lu."

Therefore, the person who was suspicious was not just himself, but Lu Nanhuai had also intervened very early.

But he had many inconveniences and concerns, but when it came to Shen Muyin, things became much simpler.

After a moment of silence, Shen Muyin calmly returned to the carriage, and the carriage continued to speed towards the direction of the Beijing prefect.

……

At that time, the East Palace.

Qin Chuyan lowered his head and read the memorials. The more he read, the angrier he became.

Thinking of Shen Muyin's face, and then thinking of the way this woman confronted him, Qin Chuyan couldn't breathe smoothly.

"The Northwest is in drought, and all they know is writing memorials. Is there no other way? What's the point of having such officials? They're just good for nothing!"

"Heh, Jiangnan is a land of fish and rice, with the most abundant resources. Yet he still has the nerve to cry poor here. Fine him three years' salary, let him cry poor properly, and then I will conduct a thorough investigation to see if there is any problem!"

"This is in the south, close to the coast. There are strong winds every year during the hottest season, which causes losses. Yet he made light of it. Doesn't he know how much money the court paid? That's all!"

……

Qin Chuyan read several memorials in succession, and many officials were dismissed from their posts.

The officials in the Eastern Palace were trembling with fear and dared not say a word.

It’s hard to figure out Donggong’s temper on weekdays, but they more or less know that Donggong will just turn a blind eye to some things.

Now, the Eastern Palace is settling both old and new accounts.

They had no time to care about others. They were all silently calculating whether they had offended the Eastern Palace.

It’s bad enough that I can’t keep the official hat on my head, let alone my head.

"If you send me such memorials again, I will kill them one by one." Qin Chuyan sneered.

All the documents on the table were pushed down.

The chief eunuch hurried forward and brought Qin Chuyan a cup of tea: "Your Highness, take a break and don't be angry."

"Get out!" Qin Chuyan shouted angrily.

These officials did not dare to stay for a second and turned around and walked out of the East Palace.

It's like having a wolf chasing you from behind.

Oh, no, this East Palace is more terrifying than a wolf.

Almost in an instant, everyone in the East Palace disappeared without a trace.

Before the chief eunuch had time to catch his breath, the young eunuch outside rushed in: "Your Highness, Lord Lu is here."

Chief Eunuch: “…”

I always feel that Lu Nanhuai's coming now is not a good thing, and he won't add fuel to the fire.

When the two men started fighting, the ones who suffered were the servants under them.

As soon as the young eunuch finished speaking, Lu Nanhuai walked in calmly.

Lu Nanhuai didn't need to be informed when he went to the East Palace, so he could just walk in with his head held high.

Donggong looked at Lu Nanhuai coldly, but Lu Nanhuai remained calm: "Who provoked His Highness?"

You ask questions even though you already know the answer. You have no good intention.

Donggong sneered: "Lord Lu is so free, how can you still come to visit me?"

"It's like this. I heard from my subordinates that the Eastern Palace hung the assassin's head on the city gate, so I came here specially to ask, how long will the head remain hanging before it can be taken down?" Lu Nanhuai looked at the Eastern Palace with a smile on his face.

Now, Donggong’s face turned completely dark.

Okay, are those bastards in the other courtyard really going to rebel?

They actually didn't even listen to his orders. Even though they were clearly not allowed to do this, they still did what Shen Muyin said.

Oh, the world is about to change. Why not let Shen Muyin take over the East Palace?

But Lu Nanhuai seemed to be looking for trouble with Donggong, looking at him with a mixture of smile and non-smile.

"If Your Highness has no idea, then I will go and ask Miss Shen what she thinks?" Lu Nanhuai was provoking the Eastern Palace.

Perhaps he was just feeling very frustrated and could only vent it in the East Palace.

Dong Gong sneered, turned around, drew out the sword of a guard beside him, and pointed it directly at Lu Nanhuai.

Lu Nanhuai took the lead and the two of them started fighting in the East Palace immediately.

Wherever the swords and sabers went, leaves fell, and when the internal force vibrated, the surrounding trees and houses trembled.

The servants lowered their heads and dared not say a word.

The chief eunuch was silent for a moment, perhaps because he was used to it or for some other reason, but he just stood there quietly.

It was not until Dong Gong and Lu Nanhuai had fought enough that the two of them landed steadily on the ground.

There was no injury on either of them, except for Lu Nanhuai's sword pointing at Donggong's neck. If someone saw this, it would be a capital crime punishable by death for all nine generations of his clan.

Lu Nanhuai didn't take it to heart at all, and then he retracted the sword: "Your Highness is not in good condition today."

Dong Gong ignored him and just sat down.

Lu Nanhuai raised his hand, and the servants in the East Palace retreated respectfully, which meant that the two of them had something to say.

"The secret guard cannot be blamed for this. If she were to do it herself, something really bad would happen. Besides, didn't you condone this matter? Why are you angry with yourself here now?" Lu Nanhuai drank his tea slowly and then asked Dong Gong jokingly.

Donggong was not a pushover and looked at Lu Nanhuai with a sullen face.

"You have nothing to do. If my information is correct, my father will issue an edict after the Ghost Festival to allow Su Jin and Nangong Sheng to get married." Qin Chuyan also knew how to provoke Lu Nanhuai.
