After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

Lu Yuan came out of Zhaoming Palace, and a cold voice sounded above his head: "Why don't you just tell the emperor who you suspect?"

Lu Yuan sneered at someone standing on the branch: "Don't you have someone you suspect too? Why don't you go in and talk?"

Chen Long said expressionlessly: "Why should I say something without evidence?"

Lu Yuan curled his lips and smiled: "You don't want me to say it?"

Chen Long: "Yes."

Lu Yuan: “…”

It's really... shameless.

Lu Yuan asked, "Who let you into the palace?"

Chen Long said truthfully: "Prime Minister."

Lu Yuan taunted, "And you still say you're not a spy for the Prime Minister?"

Chen Long said: "I don't need to explain to you."

Lu Yuan said playfully, "Okay, let's go to Gaomi."

Chen Long left.

Yu Zichuan appeared, looked at Chen Long's back and said, "Do you want to kill him?"

Lu Yuan glanced at him and said, "You speak as if you can kill him."

Yu Zichuan took out a Gu bottle: "I have this."

Lu Yuan's mouth twitched: "Where did it come from?"

Yu Zichuan said seriously: "Miss Baoshu gave it to me. She has a lot. Didn't she give you one?"

Lu Yuan's face darkened.

Lu Yuan looked at Chen Long coldly.

Chen Long didn't look back, but seemed to know that Lu Yuan was looking at him, and raised three fingers arrogantly.

Yu Zichuan frowned his handsome little brows: "Miss Baoshu gave him three."

Lu Yuan: “…little bastard!”

-

Governor's Mansion.

The emperor and empress are getting married soon, which means Zhou Nanyan will also be entering the palace soon. Meng Qianqian is rushing to prepare a wedding gift for Zhou Nanyan.

Suddenly, the maid reported that Miss Zhou, Miss Lin and Miss Wang came to visit.

Meng Qianqian put away the half-made gift: "Please come in!"

The three of them entered the house.

Meng Qianqian quickly asked the three of them to sit down and pushed some fresh fruits in front of them: "You must be too hot, right? Eat some fruits."

Zhou Nanyan ate a piece with relish: "Sister Meng, I hope I didn't disturb you by coming here unexpectedly."

Meng Qianqian curled the corners of her lips: "I'm so happy that I can't express it in time."

Her eyes fell on Wang Rou's shy face, "Sister Rou'er, how is your mother?"

Wang Rou said shyly, "Mother is fine, but she is afraid of the heat."

Meng Qianqian said, "It's easy to be afraid of heat when you're pregnant. I just got a piece of silk material here. It's very clear and cool. You can take it back later and ask the embroiderer to make a few clothes for Madam."

The material was given by Yun Xiyao. I don’t know where she got it, but it is better than the silk material in the palace.

Wang Rou wanted to refuse.

Zhou Nanyan took her arm and said, "Sister Wang, please accept this kind gesture from Sister Meng. At most, you can let Sister Meng hold the baby first after it is born!"

Meng Qianqian smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, you guys have some too."

Zhou Nanyan smiled and said, "From now on, you will be the first one to hold our children!"

"Sister Yan'er!" Wang Rou was as shy as a mimosa.

Lin Xiaoru: "I may not be able to have children."

Zhou Nanyan asked curiously: "Why?"

Lin Xiaoru said seriously: "I don't want to."

If other girls said this, Zhou Nanyan would definitely refute it, but Lin Xiaoru has been different from other girls since she was young. She has her own unique ideas.

Zhou Nanyan said: "But children are very cute."

Lin Xiaoru said: "Then I will hold yours, isn't that fine?"

Zhou Nanyan: Uh...it seems to make some sense.

Zhou Nanyan sighed: "See, Sister Lin doesn't seem to like to talk, but I can never win an argument with her."

Meng Qianqian and Wang Rou were amused.

Zhou Nanyan changed the subject: "Sister Meng, have you heard that the Chu family's case may be re-investigated?"

Meng Qianqian was surprised: "Really?"

"Ok!"

Zhou Nanyan nodded seriously, "My second brother just came back from Aunt Xing's house. Aunt Xing told me that there have been rumors recently that it was not Madam Chu who killed Grand Marshal Chu, but that Shen Hou colluded with others to murder the Chu family. But the emperor has a condition, that Lu Yuan must ensure that the wedding of the emperor and empress goes smoothly, otherwise he will not overturn Madam Chu's case."

Meng Qianqian knew about Shen Hou's matter, and it was Lu Yuan who spread the news.

What she didn't understand was why Lu Yuan suddenly overturned his own verdict?

Did he discover that he was Mrs. Chu?

That's impossible. I shouldn't have revealed any flaws in front of him.

Even if we take a step back and something is revealed, who can believe in such a bizarre thing as rebirth?

Zhou Nanyan didn't notice Meng Qianqian's distraction, and continued, "Aunt Xing also said that when it comes to investigating cases, Lu Yuan is no worse than Uncle Xing. The Jinyiwei back then were no pushovers! It's just that Lu Yuan has some connection with the Twelve Guards, so he must avoid suspicion. In the end, the Ministry of Justice should re-investigate the case."

The Dali Temple and Jingzhao Prefecture are both under the control of Prime Minister Xun. Shangshu Xing has always been neutral. Having him investigate the case can not only avoid suspicion but also ensure the fairness and justice of the case to the greatest extent.

But in this case, the wedding of the emperor and empress might not be peaceful.

After all, the condition of the retired emperor is to ensure that the wedding goes smoothly. If the real culprit behind the scenes does not want the case to be reopened, he will find a way to sabotage the wedding.

The retired emperor is using the emperor and empress's wedding to lure out the snake.

Meng Qianqian sincerely sighed: "Ginger is always spicy when it is old."

-

In the evening, Meng Qianqian went to Fengshui Hutong.

"You want me to secretly protect the daughter of the Yao family?"

Sishe asked.

The three of them sat together in the main room. The weather was hot and the draft brought a sense of dryness and heat.

Meng Qianqian nodded: "Yes, I have thought about it. If we want to disrupt the wedding, making the bride disappear is the most effective way."

Sishe wants to make all those who killed Marshal Chu pay the price, and its goal is currently consistent with that of the Governor's Office.

"Okay, I promise you."

Ji Li waved his folding fan and said, "Forget it, I'll go too."

Meng Qianqian: "You can't go."

Ji Li frowned: "Why?"

Meng Qianqian muttered, "Why don't you know what's going on? I'm afraid that person will kill the bride before he makes a move."

Ji Li said angrily: "You——"

Sishe thought hard and said, "She is right. It is really unlucky to be with you."

Ji Li was furious: "You eat my food and live my house, and you want to stab me in the back?"

Snake said calmly: "If you hadn't taken away my money, would I have no food or shelter?"

Ji Li: “…”

"For so many years, only Madam Chu could bear your bad luck. Even the Grand Marshal was sometimes helpful and sometimes not."

Sishe was also puzzled. Marshal Chu had taken Ji Li to war many times and everything was fine every time. But once in the camp, either the bed collapsed, or the tent was blown away by the wind, or the servants forgot to pull out the needles for sewing the soles of shoes.

"You almost make me doubt that there are two great marshals in the world."

"Ahem." Meng Qianqian cleared her throat.

Sishe thought of something and asked Meng Qianqian a soul-searching question: "Haven't you ever had bad luck when you were with him?"

Meng Qianqian weakly took out two silver ingots and said, "I just picked them up at the door. They're not gold. Is that bad luck?"

Si She: "..."
