Spring in the East Palace

Chapter 318 Stay in Kyoto

And in front of Donggong, there was an extra list, which was given by Lu Nanhuai.

“If something happens to the Prime Minister, it is most likely that one of these people has taken power. These people are polite to us on the surface, but actually they have their own ulterior motives. So if they take power, we will be in trouble, but we cannot stop this.” Lu Nanhuai analyzed the matter clearly.

Qin Chuyan certainly knew that no matter how this matter developed, it would be disadvantageous to him.

But Qin Chuyan was quite quiet when he looked at the list.

Nangong Sheng is not here, it’s hard to tell whether it’s a surprise or not.

Lu Nanhuai knew what Qin Chuyan was thinking at a glance, but he remained calm: "Prince Xuan intends to support Nangong Sheng, but he has always kept a low profile over the years and has never held an important position in the palace, probably to avoid suspicion, so it is naturally impossible for him to be the prime minister for a while."

Donggong looked at Lu Nanhuai indifferently: "So, Li Da's accident is to make room for Nangong Sheng. In two years, Nangong Sheng will become the prime minister. Although he is taciturn, he is not as simple as he seems."

Just because Qin Chuyan didn't have much contact with Nangong Sheng didn't mean he couldn't see what kind of person he was.

People who are too simple are sometimes hard to understand.

Such simplicity may lead to a crisis that you could not have anticipated, but they have no evidence.

Qin Chuyan's words made Lu Nanhuai raise his eyebrows slightly, but on the surface, Lu Nanhuai remained calm and just stood there quietly.

"Let the secret guards continue to investigate this matter. The fox will reveal his true colors sooner or later." Qin Chuyan said solemnly.

"I know." Lu Nanhuai nodded.

"As for Lord Xiu, let the spies inform father to be prepared." Qin Chuyan finished his words.

Lu Nanhuai nodded, and Donggong had already stood up. Lu Nanhuai and Donggong had known each other for many years and knew very well what Donggong meant now.

There's no need to waste time here since you've reached your wits' end.

And there are people in Kyoto that Donggong cares about, so this person will not stay here for even a second.

"And Lord Xiu's trial requires the punishment of our subordinates, so it is natural for us to return to the palace." Qin Chuyan finished his words.

Lu Nanhuai smiled and said, "Your Highness, are you waiting for the trial, or is there something else?"

Qin Chuyan sneered: "I will go back and help Su Jin decide which day is a good day for the wedding."

Lu Nanhuai: “…”

Seeing Lu Nanhuai being embarrassed and saying nothing, Qin Chuyan walked out without looking back.

When he reached the door, Qin Chuyan suddenly looked at Lu Nanhuai and said, "Also, you should consider Xiu Wan'er's matter yourself. If Master Xiu retires and returns home, your rogue behavior of being neither clear nor positive over the years will eventually have a result."

Just like how people in Kyoto knew that Nangong Sheng and Princess Xuanhe were in love.

Everyone also knows that Xiu Wan'er likes Lu Nanhuai and has long been over the age of marriage for Lu Nanhuai.

Qin Yue had mentioned this matter to Lu Nanhuai many times, but was politely declined by Lu Nanhuai.

But at that time, Lord Xiu was still the prime minister, so it was not a big problem for Xiu Wan'er to find a good husband.

But now that Lord Xiu has fallen, everything is hard to say, and naturally many things have become subtle.

"I will explain it clearly when I get back." Lu Nanhuai said calmly, "When the Prime Minister retires and returns to his hometown, I will arrange everything."

Qin Chuyan nodded and didn't say much.

Then the man turned and left, and Lu Nanhuai followed him quietly.

……

The governor of Kyoto.

The news of the Shen family's accident had spread throughout the streets and alleys of Kyoto, just like when everyone knew that Shen Muyin had murdered Su'er, it caused a lot of uproar.

So for a while, the Shen family became the source of all kinds of gossip in the teahouse.

Shen Muyin didn't take it to heart. After all, in Shen Muyin's opinion, anything happening in the Shen family had nothing to do with him.

Now there is only Shen Zhenzhen left in the Shen family, and he poses almost no threat to Shen Muyin.

Shen Zhenzhen also kept a much lower profile and spent most of his time in Nanyuan, never leaving the main door or the secondary door, and even his meals were delivered to his room.

Shen Muyin was also happy and relaxed.

At least you don't have to deal with hypocritical people or hypocritical words.

Thinking of this, Shen Muyin's eyes became calmer. Now, the best thing for her was to find the swaddling clothes that could prove her identity.

"Sister...sister..." Shen Huai came here crazy without knowing when.

The people in the Shen Mansion were still used to it. In addition, Shen Changsheng and Shen Yan were not there, and everyone in the Wenxiang Pavilion was Shen Muyin's people, so Shen Muyin naturally did not need to be vigilant.

"Ahuai, why are you here?" Shen Muyin asked with a smile.

Then she took Shen Huai's hand and walked towards the Wenxiang Pavilion.

When Hui Xiang saw Shen Huaimojun, she immediately walked towards the two of them and closed the door of the Wenxiang Pavilion.

"Sister." Shen Huai spoke normally, his eyes fell calmly on Shen Muyin, "Mom said that you have made arrangements to send her away, right?"

"Yes, Shen Yan and Shen Changsheng are imprisoned. And Sanniang has been in poor health for a long time. In the past six months, the doctor has come many times and clearly said that Sanniang has a maximum life expectancy of six months to a year. So now is a good opportunity. We can arrange for Sanniang to fake her death and send her out smoothly." Shen Muyin did not deny it.

Otherwise, even if Shen Muyin looks for another opportunity, it may not be as good as this one.

What's more, Shen Yan, Shen Changsheng and Shen Muyin were not sure that they would definitely be sentenced to death.

And most importantly, she couldn't guarantee when her next crisis would be.

Or if Shen Huai got close to him, would the people from the Shen family attack them?

When discussing with Dong Jin before, Shen Muyin realized after careful consideration that Butler Wang might not be the only candidate.

Liu Rushi and Shen Huai are also OK.

Liu Rushi had been out of favor for many years, so no one would suspect that she let her idiot son do such a thing.

If Shen Huai suddenly explained clearly, the evidence would be even more conclusive. If Shen Huai continued to play dumb, even if he was a fool killing someone, it would be a capital crime.

Even a death penalty with no evidence.

On the contrary, Shen Changsheng and Shen Yan came out openly.

So in order to prevent any accidents from happening, Shen Muyin still planned to send Liu Rushi away. This was also the promise Shen Muyin made to Liu Rushi.

Now that you have said it, you must keep your word.

Shen Muyin's words made Shen Huai just look at her quietly. Now, Shen Muyin felt confused.

"Ahuai, do you have any ideas?" Shen Muyin asked directly.

"Sister, after sending mother to Ji County, I want to return to Kyoto." Shen Huai was direct.

Shen Muyin was stunned and a little surprised, but soon she thought about it and nodded.
