Chapter 898 Be a Good Official
Sheng Yunjiao played with Wen Qingqing for a while, and seeing that they had almost finished discussing their business, she squeezed over too.
"When do we set off? Although I can't be of much help, the organization can certainly handle the logistical work. Even though my strength is small, I can still do my part!"
"Let's hurry!" Lu Yangyang thought for a moment and said, "His Majesty probably hasn't paid attention to me these past few days, but given enough time, he might come up with some new ideas. After all, as long as His Highness is alive, no one knows what His Majesty is really thinking."
In fact, Lu Yangyang still cannot understand what kind of conflicted feelings the emperor had towards Zong Que.
He was clearly targeting Zong Que at every turn, wishing he could kill him completely.
But they went to great lengths to break Zong Que's wings and pull him down from his pedestal.
He seemed to regard Zong Que as another Crown Prince Chongwen, yet he hesitated repeatedly.
Just like the emperor's treatment of Crown Prince Chongwen.
If the emperor and Empress Dowager Dugu were truly old acquaintances over the years, there would have been many ways to make Crown Prince Chongwen "die of illness," but he chose not to do so.
It seems that the only purpose was to keep Crown Prince Chongwen alive, but every day he lived was filled with torment.
Absolutely perverted.
The emperor's mind is the most difficult to fathom.
Lu Yangyang shook her head. This time, His Majesty was furious with the Third Prince. Even if he didn't fall seriously ill, his body certainly wouldn't be able to withstand it. In addition, the Third Prince's rebellion would require the support of the court officials. Just dealing with the aftermath would be a matter that couldn't be resolved in a few days. His Majesty simply didn't have time to care about her, this "hostage."
But once His Majesty finishes dealing with these matters and thinks of her, one can't be sure what he'll be planning.
Now that she has done what she could, and eliminated the threat of the Third Prince, even for the sake of the Great Zhao's country, neither His Majesty nor the ministers in the court who have wavering minds will cause any more trouble at this time.
With the capital city in a stable political situation, the war in the north can proceed more smoothly.
“There’s something else I need to tell you,” Wen Qingqing said. “The person I saved at Dali Temple has woken up, but he’s not fully conscious and won’t recover anytime soon. We also can’t identify his true identity. His appearance has recovered about 30%, and it will probably take at least three months to recover to the point where he can be recognized by 70 or 80%.”
Regarding the case of "Wang Jing," Lu Yangyang only happened to take advantage of Wen Qingqing's ability to detoxify to help Ying Xun. She never expected that the poison would lead to a deeper secret. As a result, Wang Jing's true identity became the biggest mystery.
Unfortunately, Wang Jing was too deeply poisoned and could not recover in a short time, so the matter had to be put on hold for the time being.
"His Majesty has promoted Lu Wei to Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review and appointed Lord Ying as Minister of the Court of Judicial Review. From now on, Lord Ying will be in charge of the Court of Judicial Review." Lu Yangyang looked at Wen Qingqing: "Write down the necessary antidotes and treatments in advance. Lu Wei should be coming over later, and I will give them to him to keep an eye on the person. I have a feeling that this Wang Jing is definitely not simple."
Wen Qingqing got up and went out, returning shortly with a box. "Don't worry, I've already prepared it."
Sheng Yunjiao gently nudged Wen Qingqing. "Qingqing, we might meet your father on this trip north. Are you nervous?"
Wen Qingqing's eyes widened, clearly unaware of the problem at all.
She had to think about it for a moment before sighing, "I don't know either."
“When I was little, my mother told me that people only crave their parents’ love excessively when they are very lacking in love. But I have had a lot of love since I was a child. Solving the mystery of the poison is more interesting to me than what kind of person my father is, so I can’t imagine whether I will be nervous?”
In Medicine God Valley, everyone around her loved her. She had a carefree and happy life since childhood, doing whatever she wanted. Even though she had an unusual interest in researching poisons, no one thought it was wrong. They would even help her. Later, when she met Lu Yangyang and the others, she witnessed a wonderful world that she had never seen in the previous ten years. She helped many people and even found her expectations and value for the rest of her life after meeting Rong Xin.
She seemed to have no dissatisfaction or particular desires.
Therefore, neither her famous mother nor her father, who became a hero for the greater good, were real to her.
Her mother was bold and independent, allowing her to rely on others while also allowing her to be herself.
This is the reality she felt.
Lu Yangyang poked Sheng Yunjiao's cheek: "Whether you're nervous or not, you'll only know when you see him. You're just curious about what a great hero is like!"
"Who wouldn't be curious?" Sheng Yunjiao said, a little embarrassed.
That's Crown Prince Chongwen! A figure who deserves a prominent place in history. Of course she'd be curious to meet him in her lifetime!
"Alright, alright, hurry up and pack your things. Zhiyi, help me settle the people in the manor. If we can't come back safely this time, the people in this manor will inevitably be implicated. It's better to let them leave as soon as possible," Lu Yangyang said.
Jiang Zhiyi nodded: "Don't worry, I guessed you would be worried if we went to the North, so I have made arrangements. Most of the people in the mansion have been dismissed, leaving only a few to cover our tracks. We can send Shen Mama and the others away tonight."
Lu Yangyang hugged Jiang Zhiyi, "Zhiyi understands me best!"
Jiang Zhiyi curtsied in return, smiling mischievously, "I am willing to serve you like a dog or a horse."
When Lu Wei walked into the courtyard, he heard laughter filling the house.
He paused for a moment, then went up and knocked on the door. "What are you saying? It's so lively!"
"Yangyang just said you were coming, and you really are. You two chat, we'll go pack our things first." Sheng Yunjiao greeted Lu Wei, then went out with Jiang Zhiyi and Wen Qingqing, leaving Lu Wei and Lu Yangyang alone.
Lu Yangyang pointed to the table. "Come and sit down. What are you doing standing there?"
Lu Wei walked in and quietly looked at Lu Yangyang.
Lu Yangyang touched her face. "Is there something on my face?"
Lu Wei shook his head: "I'll wait for you to come back."
Lu Yangyang burst out laughing.
"Don't you feel particularly frustrated right now? Why am I just a scholar who doesn't know any martial arts, unable to pick up a sword and ride a horse into battle?"
Lu Wei flicked her forehead. "You dare to make fun of me? So what if I'm a scholar? A scholar's pen is also a weapon, and you dare to look down on me?"
"Alright, alright, then our talented Lu must hold this knife tight." Lu Yangyang handed the box Wen Qingqing had given her to Lu Wei. "I will come back, we will all come back."
"If you don't come back, be a good official."
