Chapter 9

Even if you understand what means the Lu family uses to frame and win over others, it is another matter to thoroughly prevent them.

It is early summer, and the morning light is slightly warm. The morning court moment that should have been calm is filled with a strong atmosphere of dispute today...

Cooperate with the enemy and treason?

The words that make people lose their hearts burst out and aroused discussions from many ministers.

Yun Qingrui frowned with beautiful eyebrows.Looking at Huo Qingyue and Shangshu Lu with a serious face with a sad face, it was really hard to say.

Early in the morning, Secretary Lu reported in person that Huo Qingyue had an affair with foreign enemies in southern Xinjiang and wanted to lead the army to rebel.

This move naturally caused disputes between the two sides. Huo Qingyue was unwilling to admit it, and Shangshu Lu also verified it clearly, making him not know what to do.

Shangshu Lu falsely accused the important officials of the court and was also General Huo who made contributions in protecting the country, but he had to make real evidence.Shangshu Xia frowned and spoke for his daughter's husband for justice.

If there is no evidence, I will naturally not dare to submit the report to the emperor.Shangshu Lu didn't even see Shangshu Xia.

So, what is the evidence of Shangshu Lu??It might as well present it for the emperor to see.The Prime Minister, with a quiet face, spoke next to him.

The Prime Minister said it was.Shangshu Lu, if there is any evidence, I will take it to me.Yun Qingrui quickly answered.

Report to the emperor, I received a secret report saying that General Huo had letters from his private relationship with the enemy country. The emperor might as well send someone to investigate.Then you will know.

Shangshu Lu glanced at Huo Qingyue with his tense eyebrows, revealing his pride.

This...but there is no proof. Wouldn't this search be a shame to Huo Aiqing's reputation?Shangshu Lu would give the evidence first... Yun Qingrui naturally refused to believe this matter.

Especially before, he had discussed with the sixth prince Yun Shiyang, Huo Qingyue and others how to deal with Lu Shangshu's ambitions, so now he is unwilling to give in no matter what.

emperor.I have a letter here, which is a secret letter I secretly sent to stop.

Lu Shangshu raised his face and took out a letter from his sleeve with one eye.

The following is written with Huo Qingyue Jingshu, which contains the unique patterns of the enemy troops in the southern border. Please also ask the emperor to read it.

This... is presented soon!Of course, Yun Qingrui did not believe that Huo Qingyue would treason, so when he heard the evidence, he quickly sent his servants to take it.

Huo Qingyue stared at the letter with a cold eyelid. He knew it was a trap, but he could not refute it immediately:

Ouyang Jilang, who had a wide connection, had already set out to southern Xinjiang to find out the news, while Feng Jinghuai was in the middle of contact, originally planning to take the lead in Shangshu Lu.First find out the evidence of his illegality.But I didn't expect to be one step slower.

If the emperor has doubts, he can send someone to receive the memorial and write the words.The prime minister reminded him.

rational.Send someone to pick it up quickly.Yun Qingrui stared at the letter that was opened, full of words expressing military information, which made him sweat.

The civil and military officials in the court looked at me and I looked at you, and they all showed a look of at a loss, because no one expected that Shangshu Lu would provide evidence in the current dynasty to deal with Huo Qingyue.

Time passes slowly, after taking the memorials and carefully comparing them by multiple people.Everyone showed solemn expressions.

Emperor, I wonder if the handwriting is checked, it looks like General Huo??Shangshu Lu asked seriously.

This... Yun Qingrui responded in a stiff tone: It's very similar to Huo Aiqing, but it can't be determined that Huo Aiqing is guilty. Maybe... someone deliberately framed him??

Then please order the emperor to search General Huo’s mansion!Many court officials standing on the side of Shangshu Lu spoke in unison.

I will never treason!Huo Qingyue said coldly.

Is this...after searching.Let someone investigate carefully?

The prime minister suddenly made a sound. The emperor, I believe that since there is evidence, I should first take General Huo to prison and guard it strictly, and no one is allowed to enter and exit. In addition, I will send someone to investigate the Huo Mansion one by one.

The prime minister spoke coldly, which made others turn their eyes to his face that was always cold and expressionless and unpredictable.

Usually the Prime Minister always has similar intentions with Huo Qingyue, but today it is abnormal, which makes many people discuss it.

But... we should give Huo Qing a chance... Yun Qingrui didn't give up and wanted to defend Huo Qingyue.

Your Majesty, I wish to be a temporary neck.He handed over the military power and returned it to the emperor, and asked the emperor to take the ministers to prison. After the matter was investigated clearly, he would return his innocence to me: Huo Qingyue glanced at the prime minister.

I always felt that there seemed to be another meaning in his extremely heavy tone, so I just wanted to cooperate for the time being.

Although it sounds like the prime minister turned against him and wanted to surrender to Lu Shangshu, it sounds like Huo Qingyue is trying to protect him.

The so-called strict guarding and no one is allowed to approach him actually means that the enemy who wants to attack him secretly cannot get close to him.

So... although he has little friendship with the prime minister, it is not a good idea to try it out for a while.

Especially in daily decision-making, the prime minister always speaks from the standpoint of serving the country and the people. I think it would be better to help Shangshu Lu harm loyal ministers.

This... Yun Qingrui looked at the prime minister worriedly. Seeing that he was just responding coldly, he had to agree for the time being. Then... he would temporarily take Huo Qing to prison according to the wishes of the ministers.

The emperor is wise!

In the midst of a dead silence.The court officials who supported Shangshu Lu responded, but this shout made Yun Qingrui feel upset...

What?Qingyue was imprisoned?

It was already noon when the news reached Huo Mansion. Seeing the soldiers surrounding the general's mansion, Xia Ruyan was stunned on the one hand, but was worried about Huo Qingyue on the other hand.

Seeing the soldiers' figures shuttled through the mansion from afar, Xia Ruyan felt chill all over.

At this time, she really didn't know whether she should be glad of her good luck?

Early in the morning, she sent Huo Qingyue away to court. She wanted to call Shan'er to go out, but she didn't expect Shan'er to be unwell. So she took two other maids and a servant to enjoy the scenery and painting by the river not far away. She didn't know that she would encounter such a thing once she returned to her house.

Originally, I wondered why there were a large group of people watching outside the general's mansion.But suddenly he was pulled by a strange girl and left, asking her not to go home.

She had a stalemate with the strange girl for a long time.I realized that she was sent by the Prime Minister, and the Prime Minister was waiting on the second floor of the inn opposite the street.

She followed her half-believingly. After seeing the prime minister who had met several times, she was surprised to find that Huo Qingyue was really imprisoned.

Because of this, please don’t go home for now.I think you should be the one that General Huo is most worried about.The prime minister looked at the soldiers coming and going from the inn and on the street, and lowered his voice a little.

So, will Qingyue be fine??Xia Ruyan said worriedly.

It depends on what evidence can be found in the General's Mansion.

He looked at the general's mansion opposite the street and said in a deep voice: Just a letter cannot be convicted. Now General Huo has asked the emperor to send someone to guard him, and he will not have any worries about his life in a short period of time.

Then...what can I help??Xia Ruyan frowned.Although Huo Qingyue is not around.It made her feel quite uneasy.But she still didn't want to bow her head.

Her life.All she wants is her freedom.Her husband Huo Qingyue.So no matter what difficulties she encounters, she has to spend them with Huo Qingyue.

There must be someone monitoring Xia Shangshu. I wonder if my wife has other places to go?The prime minister asked in a low voice.

This... Xia Ruyan frowned. For a while, she really didn't know where she should go?

Unconsciously clenched the peace talisman tied between her neck. In her distracted mood, Huo Qingyue's Ding Níng suddenly jumped into her mind.

Huo Qingyue once said that she would open it whenever she was in danger and keep her safe. I wonder if it is considered an important time to conquer her life??

Without hesitation, Xia Ruyan untied the treasure bag and opened it carefully under the prime minister's unclear view.

This is... Looking at the jade ring that was poured out of brocade.A hurriedly glanced across the prime minister's shoulders.

Why did Qingyue put this in the peace talisman to me?Xia Ruyan looked at it blankly, her mind full of confusion.

There was still a note in the bag, maybe it was left by General Huo.The prime minister pointed at the tips.Remind.

Xia Ruyan took out the note as she said, and saw a few big words written on it, "Submitting to the Sixth Prince Yun Shiyang."

It was indeed the Sixth Prince's Water Jade Ring.When the Prime Minister saw Huo Qingyue's note, the worries between his eyebrows instantly faded a little.

The Sixth Prince??When did Qingyue know the Sixth Prince??Xia Ruyan remembered that Huo Qingyue had no contact with most royal relatives, so how could this ring and note pop up suddenly?

Now is not a good time to explore this, madam.

The prime minister narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a little joy between his eyebrows. Since General Huo left this letter and the token, it means that the two have a friendship. Why should he go and surrender to the Sixth Prince?

Qing Yue told me that if I have trouble, I will open it and keep me safe... So, her husband would have expected this to happen??

It seems that General Huo is guarding.

The prime minister nodded, called the attendants beside him, and whispered a few instructions. Since that's the case, let's go to visit the Sixth Prince as soon as possible, maybe it can be of any help.

But I don’t know where the Sixth Prince is.Although Xia Ruyan had heard her father mention the affairs of the powerful in the palace, she had never known many private matters.

I prepared a carriage for my wife.The Prime Minister pointed to the downstairs. In order to cover up, the lady pretended to be alone. I will send someone to lead you to the Sixth Prince.

Thank you for your help, Ruyan will definitely bring back good news.Xia Ruyan stood up gratefully.

Please be polite, madam, I just don’t want to see the emperor feel sad for the rest of his life because he lost his loyal ministers and good generals.The prime minister responded without emotion, and then instructed his servants to escort Xia Ruyan away.

As the carriage drove away, the prime minister looked at the general's mansion again.

But the sixth prince of Yi really had a way to save General Huo. Otherwise, with the huge power of Shangshu and others, even if he was the prime minister below one person and the emperor who was the leader of the people, he would not be able to save Huo Qingyue who was framed!

The carriage stopped two days away from Beijing.

Perhaps, it should be said that he was stopped.

Xia Ruyan poked her head out of the carriage, and after her eyes met the burly man blocking the road ahead, she couldn't help but shivered.

After finding out that the Sixth Prince was not in the capital, she hurried away from the capital, hoping to find the Sixth Prince to save Huo Qingyue, but she didn't expect to encounter these bandits halfway.

However, seeing their gorgeous clothes and seemingly out of place with bandits and others, who are these??What's the purpose?

The one in the car is Xia Shangshu Gan Jin!The leading man shouted.

Xia Ruyan was stunned.

Could it be the pursuers sent by the capital?After all, she is Huo Qingyue's concubine. Now that Huo's mansion is surrounded, she should be locked up in the mansion...

Aunt, girl...what should you do this...Ah?The coachman probed his head and asked Xia Ruyan in the car.

He just collected money and gave it to others.Don't want to cause trouble!

What's more, this group of people seems to be malicious...

I get off the car and ask, you wait first.Xia Ruyan suppressed the fear in her heart and bent down from the carriage.

Not afraid, not afraid... She is also rushing to save Huo Qingyue!How could I stop here?

It was indeed Miss Xia Ruyan.

When the man saw Xia Ruyan get out of the car, he suddenly burst out with a laugh.

Who are you and why are you blocking your way??Xia Ruyan clenched her pink fists and tried her best to calm herself down.The other party recognized her.Then 80% are the pursuers from the capital!

In the lower Lu Feifan.The big man carefully looked at Xia Ruyan from head to toe.Then he got off the horse.

Lu... Xia Ruyan was stunned at first, and then screamed in surprise, "Who are you from Shangshu Lu?"

The one who would stop her at this moment should be the important officials in the court who were enemies of Huo Qingyue, and the person who was accused in public this time was Shangshu Lu, so Lu Feifan must have a close relationship with him.

Below is the son of Shangshu Lu.Lu Feifan approached Xia Ruyan, and the master's figure brought a little oppression.

You...what are you doing?We should have nothing to say, right?Xia Ruyan was calm and she didn't want to show her fear, as it would only make the Lu family even more arrogant.

Let me talk to you about a deal.The big man replied.

What kind of transaction??Xia Ruyan frowned lightly.

If you marry me, I will let you go. Lu Feifan responded with a look.

What??Xia Ruyan couldn't help but shrank to the carriage, what are you talking about?I've been married long ago...

Isn't he just a concubine?Lu Feifan snorted heavily, I originally wanted to marry you, but I didn’t know your dad who didn’t know what he was.He actually threw you to Huo Qingyue as a concubine!

You... Xia Ruyan regrets getting off the carriage now.

It turns out that this man is the reason why his father is in a hurry to get her married!Now he is here to frame Huo Qingyue again... he is just a villain!

But I don't mind!

Lu Feifan did not take Xia Ruyan's fear into his eyes, but just talked about his views on his own, although you have married Huo Qingyue as your concubine.I have read this and I like you. As long as you nod, I can ignore your past.

What are you talking about?I will not leave Qingyue.This man.Extremely arrogant.

Are you sure?You know, his life is in my hands now. I want to find out how much evidence of collusion with enemies and rebellion in the general's mansion, but in your mind!

Lu Feifan raised a proud and arrogant smile.

Despicable villain!Xia Ruyan bit her lower lip, and never expected that Huo Qingyue, who had always been upright, would be defeated by such a person.

If you think carefully, I won’t force you because I want you to beg me by yourself!Lu Feifan snorted lightly.

I will never agree to you!She had already decided to stay with Huo Qingyue for the rest of her life, which was her only desire beyond freedom.

How could this sweet dream that has been related to her lifelong life be ruined in Lu Feifan's hands like this?

It doesn't matter if you can continue to show off, because I like your tough temper.

Lu Feifan said coldly: But I am ugly in front of you. Shan'er next to you is someone I sent. Now she probably has put down the letter from the young Huo Qingyue in the general's mansion!

As he said that, Lu Feifan couldn't help laughing wildly.

He endured it for so long, just to breathe!

He was very persuasive at the beginning, but Shangshu Xia was so stupid that he refused to marry his daughter, which ruined his plan.

Now...

After finally embarrassing Huo Qingyue in prison, Xia Ruyan was unable to resist him. Naturally, he had to seize this opportunity and must tell Xia Ruyan to turn to his arms.

Shan, Shan'er... Xia Ruyan couldn't help but take a few steps back, and almost softened her body and fell to the ground.

No wonder Huo Qingyue knew that she always looked so nervous when she took Shan'er out alone. It turned out that it was because of this!

In this way, Huo Qingyue has been secretly protecting her.But she didn't know that she was worried about these things.

Qingyue.Her good husband Ah...

Even if she bet on her life, she must not betray him!

Do you now know how important every word you say is??Lu Feifan raised his eyebrows and said loudly.

Xia Ruyan bit her lower lip. She knew that if Shan'er was a member of the Lu family, it would be easy to yell in the mansion.

However, judging from the fact that Lu Feifan intercepted her here and told her all over her plan in one go, they probably didn't know that Huo Qingyue knew the Sixth Prince, so they believed that no one could save Huo Qingyue, and they could use this as a handle to threaten her.

I said Ruyan, just follow me. If you want to wear gold and silver, eat delicious food and drink spicy food, which one can’t afford it?When it comes to masculinity, what am I inferior to Huo Qingyue?Lu Feifan continued proudly.

Even if you become the emperor, I will not marry!Xia Ruyan became more annoyed the more she heard.

Boasting that he likes her and wants to marry her, but he treats her as a decoration??

She doesn’t want anything outside of her body, whether she wears gold or silver, or eats delicious food or drinks spicy food!

All she wants is to travel thousands of miles with Huo Qingyue whom she loves!

Hello, man!Lu Feifan was a little annoyed by her:

Although I had known that Xia Ruyan was attracted by this uniqueness, I still couldn't help but be angry if I really got it right.

Humph, when Huo Qingyue was escorted to the Meridian Gate to behead him, I see if you can still speak hard!Lu Feifan responded with gritted teeth.

I will never let Qingyue be executed!Thinking of the possible scene of intrusion, Xia Ruyan couldn't help but blush her eyes.

Where is her husband...How could she let him fall into the hands of this villain Lu Feifan?

Huo Qingyue is a general and a military officer!Even if you want to die.We should also sacrifice our lives for the country and die in the battlefield!

Unfortunately, you are powerless.Otherwise, what would you do if you escape from the capital?Lu Feifan looked at the plains with only desolate paths on both sides, and just sneered.

The general's mansion cannot be kept, where can I go if I leave the capital??Xia Ruyan responded carefully, not wanting to tell the story of the Sixth Prince, so as not to stop Lu Feifan from it.

I'm happy to take you in.Lu Feifan opened his arms and grinned.

No!Xia Ruyan replied coldly.

It's okay to come to me when you have no choice but to come to me.Lu Feifan shrugged and was full of confidence.He planned this plan for so long that he would never let Xia Ruyan slip away for the second time.

At that time, Xia Ruyan will definitely be exhausted both physically and mentally, so she can only turn back and ask for help from him!

Don't go even if you die!Xia Ruyan threw down a refusal and immediately got on the carriage.

Girl, can you leave??The coachman turned around and asked.

He didn't want to be stuck in the muddy water.If this group of burly men insisted on stopping the car, he would want to save his life.

Let them pass!I am a very kind person.Lu Feifan signaled his subordinates to retreat.

Xia Ruyan climbed tightly on the window ridge.If Huo Qingyue had not left a guiding path for her and asked her to find the Sixth Prince, perhaps she could only compromise at this moment and commit herself to Lu Feifan.

But...she definitely doesn't choose this decision!

Seeing Lu Feifan and others, there was no movement.Xia Ruyan hurriedly signaled the coachman to move forward.

Before Lu Feifan regrets, she has to find the Sixth Prince to help!

Ruyan, it’s useless to escape anywhere, because I will definitely let go!You might as well give up and come back to find me as soon as possible, otherwise even Huo Qingyue's life would not be saved!

Lu Feifan was driving in front of the carriage.

In and out of the proud and arrogant low laughter.

Xia Ruyan refused to respond. She knew that a few more quarrels with this man would be a waste of time.

Instead of fighting for a while with Lu Feifan, it is better to hurry up and hurry up.

She must rescue Huo Qingyue!
