The system extends my life, and all my husbands want me to be the empress
Chapter 68 Search of Red Moon Tower
soon.
Lin Wanwan sat in the soft sedan chair, thinking carefully. Prince Yong had passed away, and she just wanted to protect some people for Prince Yong.
A soft sedan chair covered in warm gauze stopped at the entrance of Hongyue Tower.
The morning sun slowly rises in the sky, but the once bustling and lively Hongyue Tower is now dead silent.
A large crowd of people gathered outside, standing and watching.
"What happened today?"
"It looks like he has offended the government."
"Someone has come to seal the door. Just wait and see. There will be some big moves."
"Princess! Princess!" Su Ye's voice came from not far away.
Lin Wanwan raised her eyes when she heard the voice, and saw Su Ye hurried over. He walked up to her and smiled at her:
"My Lord, it's fate.
Is the princess in a better mood now?
Come to my house now?
I cleaned the house inside and out last night!
The furniture is all shiny!
What is the princess doing in my house?
I’m still a little bit looking forward to it.”
Lin Wanwan glanced at him and said calmly, "I plan to talk to the Prime Minister and ask him to arrange some serious things for you."
Su Ye stopped smiling upon hearing this and opened his folding fan, fanning himself again and again.
Ah Si, who was standing by, chimed in, "The Prime Minister hopes that Young Master and Miss Liu can spend more time together and develop their relationship these days."
When Su Ye heard this, he folded up his folding fan and hit Ah Si on the head: "What nonsense are you saying in front of the princess! Can you use your brain before you speak?"
Ah Si lowered his head and said nothing more.
Lin Wanwan's gaze fell on Hongyue Tower and she turned a deaf ear to Su Ye's words.
Su Ye thought Lin Wanwan was angry, and hurriedly explained: "Yes, well, my father wanted me to go on a blind date with my cousin Liu Shushu.
But there is no resemblance at all.
Princess, you have to believe me.
Princess, you have seriously affected my life."
"What?" Lin Wanwan glanced at him and said calmly, "Is this princess' influence?"
"Yes." Su Ye repeated with a smile, "After the princess appeared, it seriously affected my life.
As a result, my standards for beauties have become higher and higher.
People like Liu Shushu are simply not worthy of my attention. "
At this time, two teams of fully armed soldiers from the Ministry of Justice came onto the street and evacuated the crowd that was blocking the entrance of Hongyue Tower.
The leader was Qin Jun.
When Lin Wanwan saw Qin Jun, her eyes became very dark.
At the door, two rows of fully armed soldiers stood majestically. They were as straight as pine trees, and the armor on their bodies reflected a cold luster.
The soldiers all had solemn and expressionless expressions, as if they were cold sculptures.
Lin Wanwan's eyes darkened even more. She stood aside and watched the Ministry of Justice and several people from the Ministry of Revenue holding books enter the Hongyue Tower.
Su Ye was still frowning and struggling: "Princess, what do you think I should do? Forget about Hua Yu and Ouyang Qingyu.
I now realize that even Zhang Zhi may not be able to beat me.
And that Ye Lan, flying up and down, watching..."
Lin Wanwan just thought he was a bit noisy, and said casually: "If you can't win, just go home and lie down."
Su Ye leaned forward slightly and slowly approached Lin Wanwan's ear. His breath gently brushed through her silky hair, bringing a hint of warm itch.
"No~ Princess, I don't want to lie alone, how about you lie with me."
Lin Wanwan's indifferent expression changed instantly, with a hint of coldness in her eyes, and she said in a cold voice:
"Su Ye, be serious.
Do you know that this Red Moon Tower is going to be raided?"
Hongyue Tower is going to be raided?! Su Ye put away his smile upon hearing this, and his expression instantly became serious. He realized the seriousness of the problem:
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way, everyone!"
"Get out of the way!" Ah Si shouted for him to disperse the crowd surrounding them in front of him.
Su Ye successfully squeezed to the front row.
He saw a young guard, who could not help but move his spear slightly and whispered to the old guard beside him:
"Brother, this Red Moon Tower was so glorious in the past, but now it is closed just like that."
The older guard glared at him and lowered his voice to scold him: "Stop talking! Stand guard!"
The young guard shrank his neck, quickly tightened his grip on the spear again, and said nothing more.
The princess was right, she really copied Hongyue Tower! Su Ye looked inside Hongyue Tower and saw a supervisor from the Ministry of Revenue walking out of the building and shouting:
"Be quicker, and make sure everything is clear!"
The people behind him began to discuss:
"Why is the Red Moon Tower closed just like that?"
"I don't know? Where's Madam Qin?"
"I heard he's already escaped, and now he's being hunted down. If he's caught, he'll be beheaded!"
"Oh, what about the girls in the building?"
"Shh, keep your voices down and don't get yourself into trouble."
Su Ye listened to this, his face instantly became extremely gloomy, and he shouted at the two guards: "Do you know who I am?"
"This building has been sealed and confiscated to the national treasury. No one is allowed to approach!" The guard's voice was cold and firm.
"Get out of the way!" Su Ye's voice was full of anger and grief. He rushed forward desperately, wanting to rush in.
"Sir, don't be impulsive!" Ah Si, who was standing beside him, hurriedly grabbed him and shouted anxiously.
"Ah Si, let go! Let me go in and see what's going on inside." Su Ye struggled to break free from Ah Si's restraints, his eyes full of determination.
He only heard Lin Wanwan say in a calm voice beside him: "Let's go, Su Ye. Go to your house. This princess wants to see your father."
Seeing Lin Wanwan, Su Ye's impulsive emotions calmed down and nodded: "Okay, Princess, let's go back home."
At the same time, inside the Hongyue Building.
Several supervisors of the Ministry of Revenue were holding account books and lists in their hands and talking in low voices.
"The industry of this Red Moon Building is really huge."
"Yes, there are countless jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings."
"That's right. They all have to be counted and put into the national treasury."
"The treasury is full, isn't it?"
Qin Jun followed the location Zhang Qing told him and found the list in a private room on the second floor, inside a secret compartment where a painting called "Looking for a Soulmate in the Mountains and Flowing Water" was hung.
Qin Jun took a quick look, confirmed that it was correct, and then put it to his chest.
Two hours later.
After the heads of the Ministry of Revenue counted the property, they carried it out of Hongyue Tower in boxes under the protection of the guards of the Ministry of Justice.
One of the supervisors even muttered, "Humph, what is Red Moon Tower? No matter how glorious it is, it is nothing but a passing cloud."
After the people from the Ministry of Revenue left, Qin Jun left two people to guard the Hongyue Tower, and took the rest of the soldiers from the Ministry of Justice to escort the treasures to the national treasury.
Qin Jun returned to the residence of the Minister of Justice.
The door of Hongyue Tower was closed again.
On the thick vermilion door panel, official seals were posted crosswise, and the cinnabar marks on the seals were particularly dazzling under the bright sunlight.
The once dazzling signboard of Hongyue Tower was now roughly taken down from the door lintel by a guard.
The sign fell heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
“The Red Moon Tower is closed just like that.
"Who says it's not?"
"Let's go."
The people passing by sighed and gradually dispersed.
……
In the hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the atmosphere was solemn and depressing. Lin Wanwan sat in the main hall and looked at Su Mingde with a serious expression.
"Prime Minister, I'm afraid you will be imprisoned."
After saying this, Lin Wanwan took a sip of tea. Her voice was light, but it hit Su Mingde's heart like a heavy hammer.
"Princess, what did you say?" Su Ye on the side was shocked.
Su Mingde's face was gloomy, his eyes full of fear and uneasiness: "Why do you say that, Princess?"
Lin Wanwan said calmly: "Because the Prime Minister, like Madam Qin, is also a wing of Prince Yong.
Now that Hongyue Tower has been raided,
The next person to get into trouble will probably be the Prime Minister."
Su Ye, who had been standing aside, suddenly widened his eyes and looked shocked when he heard this. If these words were said by someone else, he would definitely say something back.
But it was the princess who said this.
Su Ye believed it immediately: "Princess, can you think of a way to save my father?"
Su Mingde looked at Lin Wanwan, sighed, and said sadly: "Princess, you really have a keen eye."
Lin Wanwan shook her head and said, "It's not that I have a keen eye, but now that Hongyue Tower has been raided, the Ministry of Justice will surely be able to find evidence of the crime.
I’m afraid that everyone in the court will know it tomorrow morning.
The Prime Minister should make plans early."
Su Mingde sighed and said, "Now that things have come to this, I will no longer hide anything. I feel really guilty about Prince Yong's affairs."
Lin Wanwan frowned slightly and listened quietly.
A complex emotion flashed across Su Mingde's eyes, and he continued:
"Prince Yong is the legitimate son of the late emperor, born to the empress, so he is the true emperor.
Lin Moyun of the current dynasty was plotting to usurp the throne.
I have been secretly supporting Prince Yong, hoping that one day he would be able to restore order in the court.
Now that Prince Yong is dead, my hopes are shattered. I cannot stay in this court for even a day longer."
Lin Wanwan smiled faintly, her eyes deep: "Now that Prince Yong is dead, does the Prime Minister plan to never attend court again in the future?"
Su Ye listened to their conversation, and his heart was in turmoil: "Father, Madam Qin ran away, why don't you run away too."
Su Mingde looked at Su Ye and shook his head when he heard this. He then thought of something else, "Princess, Prince Yong is your uncle. I am worried that you will also..."
Lin Wanwan shook her head slightly: "No, this princess is of great use to Your Majesty. Naturally, she will not be implicated in this."
Su Mingde sighed heavily: "Princess, to be honest, it's not that I didn't take the initiative to take action, but Madam Qin of Hongyue Tower has a list.
This is why Hongyue Tower became famous in Kyoto City under the name of a brothel.
Because of this list, anyone who comes to the private room of Hongyue Tower to discuss business will be successful.
Now this list has probably fallen into the hands of Ouyang Qingyu of the Ministry of Justice."
Lin Wanwan's eyes were deep: "They feel that they are all in the same boat, using each other and cooperating with each other."
Su Mingde nodded heavily, his face full of worry: "If this list is obtained by His Majesty..."
Lin Wanwan lowered her eyes and stood up, thinking carefully for a while, then asked:
"Prime Minister, if you die in the line of duty, who in the court can take your place?"
