Turning misfortunes into good fortune starts with seizing the direct descendants in Kowloon

The days flew by.

The end of the year is coming soon. This year's winter is extremely cold, and it snowed early in the north.

In the ten years since the Great Yan period, the vigorous campaign to rectify corruption in the court has finally subsided.

It is worth mentioning that in these months, the Yunwan Chamber of Commerce has miraculously revived, and many of its businesses have reopened. The ladies and ladies in the capital can be said to be ecstatic. The expensive incense and precious silks they have longed for are finally back. .

People all over Dayan were very puzzled by this. Shengjing Academy, Bailu Academy, and Xiangnan Academy all wrote letters of impeachment, believing that King Langya's behavior should not be tolerated.

Only the clerks in the Ministry of Revenue released rumors. It was said that Lu Yunwan spent a lot of money to make up for the hundreds of millions of silver owed, filling the emptiness of the national treasury.

In addition, a large number of private industrial and business workshops were taken over by the Dayan court and became state-owned. Many petty officials were sent to take over, escorted by the imperial army, and all gossips were tortured.

In this way, many people are enlightened.

The imperial court plans to acquire the Yunwan Chamber of Commerce and completely classify it as a money-making tool for Dayan.

Only one person was unhappy.

When the Princess of Jinwu heard about this, she was very unconvinced and very angry. She wrote again to question the cabinet.

But this time, the cabinet chose to remain silent and pretend nothing happened.

In the capital city of Dayan, in order to show the magnificence of a great nation, the cabinet held a special banquet to appease the Golden Crow Princess. They also invited the white-clothed mage Jiang Shan, many officials, and talents from the Hanlin Academy and major academies to the scene. The dancers stage was arranged, and the atmosphere It's quite harmonious.

Among the many princes' seats, only one prince in a blue python robe was present.

King Chongwen, Lu Yunqing.

The most popular prince today.

The other princes all declined on the grounds that they were ill and unavailable.

At night, the lights were brightly lit, there were thousands of palace lanterns, the banquet was about to begin, and many ministers began to take their seats.

Lu Yunqing sat in front of the table, holding a glass of wine and sitting upright. There were countless delicacies in front of him. The dancer from the Jiaofang Division was very beautiful, with a graceful waist, holding a pipa in his hand, adjusting the strings.

King Chongwen took a sip of wine. Compared with a year ago, the warm and jade-like temperament on his body had disappeared. Instead, there was a calmness in his body. His eyes were calm and unobtrusive. Out of joy and anger.

There was a hint of reminiscence on his plain face.

Thinking back to the splendor of the banquet of all nations a year ago.

There are still many princes in this palace, including the heroic eldest brother and the gloomy and silent Lu Guangjing.

The third brother is honest, honest and extremely clingy. The leisurely and contented Lu Guangren is devoted to seeking immortality. Lu Mingkong was angered by his unrestrained speech. And to please the flattering Lu Yunwan.

Now no one came to this banquet.

Is he hated by others?

No, they are afraid of themselves and afraid of themselves.

He is no longer what he used to be. Where are the people who looked down on him at the banquet back then?

This is the result.

Lu Yunqing believed that the current situation was the best outcome.

You won't die when someone is killed, just stay there.

Don't worry about wealth, life or death, just wait for the moment you ascend the throne.

Princess Ning on the side saw that he was thinking about things again, and knowing that he was thinking about those unbearable past events, she asked softly: "Are you still thinking about Lu Yunwan?"

"Do you feel guilty?"

Going back to the afternoon when Ning Feiyu disappeared a few months ago, as soon as she returned to the house, she saw His Highness who looked like a child and threw himself into her arms. He kept talking, but luckily nothing happened.

After she told him what Lu Guangjing had dictated, His Highness laughed at her on the spot, saying it was just a plan to alienate her.

He just wanted to put the blame on the seventh prince, but his intention was very clumsy.

But after that, I still fell into deep thinking. It didn't seem like the plan was solved, but I fell into deeper concerns.

The husband said that this incident gave him a wake-up call.

No one can be trusted absolutely.

The only person you can trust is yourself.

Even the seventh prince is the same.

He shouldn't show his heart to Lu Yunwan, he shouldn't put himself in danger, and he shouldn't regard the other party as an ally. Even Lu Yunwan can't be trusted.

This time Princess Ning encountered danger and taught him a lesson.

How stupid and naive were my previous thoughts.

He should have understood this a long time ago.

So later on, he used this matter as an excuse to put pressure on Lu Yunwan and mobilized his men to investigate his properties.

Beware of any possible hidden dangers.

Only in this way can he be a qualified emperor.

Lu Yunqing smiled lightly, shook his head and said: "Ruthlessness is the most important thing for an emperor. What's the use of feeling guilty? Guilt will only make people die faster, that's all."

The soft-tempered Princess Ning was relieved to see her increasingly mature husband, but at the same time, she also felt a faint worry.

"I heard from Mr. Cui that the Sixth Prince is quite powerful now. If His Highness plans to wash away the stains on his body, he must make corresponding preparations."

Princess Ning barely mentioned the hidden danger.

Lu Yunqing frowned and said, "Brother Six will not harm me. He is different from the profiteer Lu Yunwan."

"Besides, I'm on guard."

Princess Ning nodded lightly and said, "It's good to be prepared. But I heard rumors that Lu Mingyuan was in the palace, and after marrying his wife, he still stayed with Princess Zhao Yang Yingchan every day. Is this person's character really okay?"

Lu Yunqing said softly: "Madam, let's not talk about this topic, okay?"

"Sixth brother has been kind to me. I have to step back ten thousand steps. No matter what he has done, what his character is, or what other people say, I can't blame him, let alone slander him. My literary courage is also to a certain extent. It has something to do with him, so something like this cannot be done.”

In Confucianism, it is this principle that a drop of kindness will be repaid by a spring.

The blessing of his sixth brother allowed him to survive his childhood smoothly, without receiving cold looks from others, and without the accumulated shadows and knots in his heart.

This is already a blessing.

Princess Ning looked at her husband's expression, full of seriousness, and stopped talking. She considered herself a person who knew how to advance and retreat, so she did not continue talking.

Continue to look at the lively banquet.

But just because some things are not said, doesn't mean they won't happen.

At night, on a table in a restaurant outside the street where Jin Prince's Mansion is located.

The restaurant is bustling with activity. There is a pair of yellowish lanterns at the door. One says "Lucky" and the other says "Enter Treasure". They shine on the snowflakes at night and match the pure moonlight, creating a hazy and beautiful atmosphere.

A woman in black with cold eyes was sitting on a chair in a private room with her arms folded. She didn't know who she was waiting for. Her back was straight and she looked like a heroine in the world. Many people passing by looked at her. .

Soon, a tall young man with a bronze tiger face appeared at the end of the stairs.

"Lord Luo Ying, I'm here. Does Prince Jin's Mansion have another mission?"

The young man sat down with a smile, put the saber on the table, and took out the Absolute Sound Stone from his sleeve. The sound was limited to a few meters and no one else could eavesdrop.

"you are late."

Luo Ying said in a deep voice.

"And these days, no matter where you have been, there is no trace of you. I can't find anyone even if I want to find you. I still have to submit a jade token. If there is no special matter, I can't use the jade token to summon you, otherwise I will be summoned by King Jin. If we find out the clues, it will be hard for you and me. You must not be having second thoughts."

Facing Luo Ying's question, Lu Mingyuan smiled helplessly.

This woman was indeed smart, having experienced all kinds of dangers in the world. She had only been hiding for a few days before she discovered the clues.

It's not that he wants to go missing, but it's very troublesome to control multiple clones at the same time. The higher the level of the clone, the more so. The clone with Tianzi level combat power is at the sea-viewing level after all, so he tries to only control one a day.

The time when Yang Jian appeared was occupied by Fahai and Zhao Gongming, so he naturally disappeared.

During the days he asked Yang Jian to hide, Luo Ying had been looking for him. But he didn't know that he had been practicing martial arts in the cold palace, and the newly acquired magic weapon, the famous sword Yang Su, was extremely handy. With the fate of "Sword Master" in his body, he had a high affinity for the sword.

After all, is there a sword in this world that the sword owner cannot control?

"I have been looking for Princess Jinwu very hard recently, and I have to hide from the limelight. Even so, I did not delay what Lord Luo Ying asked me to do."

"Every move of Luo Qiufu and every move of Prince Jin's Mansion is under surveillance. Nowadays, most of the Wujiang Pavilion is composed of subordinates."

Lu Mingyuan explained as reasonably as possible.

"How did you find so many worshipers to join Wujiang Pavilion?" Luo Ying asked suspiciously.

Lu Mingyuan said with a smile: "As for people, just lure them for profit, and then use methods to control them. His Highness Prince Jin has already demonstrated his methods well enough."

"Most of the time, there are more movements in Prince Jin's Mansion, while Princess Jinwu doesn't have much movement."

"You probably don't like Luo Qiufu, right?"

Lu Mingyuan was stunned for a moment when faced with Luo Ying's sudden words.

"I feel nothing in my heart."

Luo Ying's face looked better, and she crossed her arms and said, "That's good, this woman, I hope you won't feel sympathy for her. After all, you didn't kill the soldiers of the Golden Crow Kingdom before. I know that you, as a person, have a bottom line in your heart and are very different from those extremely vicious dead soldiers. Your reputation as a mass murderer is really undeserved."

"Sir, have you been observing me for so long?" Lu Mingyuan looked ugly.

Luo Ying raised her delicate eyebrows and sneered: "You think that anyone can be my subordinate. In other words, people who have cultivated to the eleventh level are all fools."

"Just like those spies who sneaked into the Great Yan Palace, they thought they were smart and perfect. In fact, it was just those masters who were too lazy to care. Their mentality was equivalent to: There is an ant under a person's feet. Will you keep staring at him? Only An ant only steps on someone when they intend to bite."

Lu Mingyuan thought about it carefully and nodded honestly: "That's true."

Luo Ying stopped talking and said seriously: "I called you here today. The mission is very clear. The opportunity has come."

"what chance?"

Lu Mingyuan asked.

A rare smile appeared on Luo Ying's cold and jade-like face.

"Prince Jin seems to have had some problems with his cultivation recently. He is already in retreat. For this reason, no one is allowed to get close to him. Even I can't get close to him. The same goes for the other three worshippers."

"oh?"

Lu Mingyuan's face remained calm and he nodded gently.

"So what do I do next?"

Luo Ying warned: "Don't act rashly for the time being. Although the opportunity has arisen, King Jin is still very careful. Your mission tonight is to sneak into the palace and set up some resistance for the Eighth Prince during the banquet to welcome Princess Golden Crow."

"If this is done well, you can officially become King Jin's confidant."

Lu Mingyuan said speechlessly: "Is it the same formula as before?"

"It's different. This time it's more difficult, and there are many eyes in the palace, so there is a high possibility that you will lose your life. I will go with you on this trip."

"How to do?"

The appearance on Luo Ying's face slowly changed, and the mist enveloped him. The subtle changes made his whole temperament change.

Luo Ying actually turned into the appearance of Princess Jinwu!

"You know what to do?"

Even her voice is exactly the same as that of the eldest princess.

Lu Mingyuan was completely shocked.

After speaking, he took a disguise pill in order to remain consistent.

His appearance changed into that of the middle-aged general beside the eldest princess.

"knew."
