Lu Zi Yun was originally waiting quietly in the courtyard. Yesterday, the three sisters were given female officials at the palace, and they were given female orders, staying in the palace, they were even given the title of the highest rank female officials, furthermore, the title of female officials was given by the emperor himself, it was truly a great honor, it was just that, this grace made them even more terrified, and their lives in the palace would not be peaceful in the future.
Actually, there were only two possibilities that she had imagined, either to be left in the palace or to be enraged. Although the current result looked good, none of her sisters revealed any expression of joy, which made Emperor admire them even more.
However, on this night, Lu Zi Yun tossed and turned, as she worried about Lu Zi Nuo's situation outside the palace.
The sisters had initially thought that this King of Grand Ling County was a person who had an anxious personality and wanted to show off his might. Zi Qian worriedly sent the calm Zi Yun out of the hall, but she could only watch her eldest sister walk out of her line of sight.
Lu Zi Yun's journey had become more and more magnanimous, because she knew that no matter how afraid she was, what should come would definitely come. Facing it so calmly, would instead cause the other party to be unsure of what to do. Only, they had never expected to meet Lu Zi Nuo here.
The two sisters were stunned, they still remembered their identities. After greeting each other, a palace maid came to see the King of Grand Ling County. The two of them went to the side hall and waited for a moment.
The side hall was already prepared, the two cups of tea were emitting hot steam, there were a few hometown snacks that the two liked to eat, Lu Zi Nuo knew that it was done intentionally by Mu Rong Chun. He felt embarrassed. Did this count as owing him another favor?
Lu Zi Yun saw the Fire Crow Green in the depths of Lu Zi Nuo's eyes and said with a slight smile: "All these big sisters are worried about you worrying blindly and messing things up. Fortunately, you have improved a lot in the past few days since you left home, so we are relieved."
"Did Emperor ask about Zi Ling and Zi Xun yesterday?" In reality, what Lu Zi Nuo was most worried about were the two people who were not in the palace.
Zi Yun slowly explained, and only now did Lu Zi Nuo know that Lu Zi Ling had been reported as sick, and that Zi Xun had been taken captive by a bandit, her whereabouts unknown. Even if he did find her in the future, the woman who'd been kidnapped wouldn't be able to enter the palace after all.
After hearing about Zi Ling's illness, Lu Zi Nuo's heart tightened for some reason. But at least this matter could be understood so well, and could be considered good, so she chatted with Zi Yun about everything she had seen and heard since she had entered the capital, which was even more enjoyable than last night. However, when it was time for to return, even though there were many rules in the Eastern Palace, she could not stay any longer.
The current Mu Rong Chun was not intentionally giving Lu Zi Nuo a chance to talk to his sister, but was just unable to leave.
After the morning assembly ended, a few officials were still arguing tirelessly within the Yanying hall.
The emperor, Mu Rong Shi, was sitting leisurely on his purple sandalwood throne. As he aged, his head was throbbing, and he felt extremely sleepy.
Mu Rong Shi raised his eyes, looking through the curtains at the outside of the hall. It was a sunny day, and outside the hall there was a small section of warm sunlight. Mu Rong Shi had been sitting in this position for many years, and like an old man, he moved a bamboo cane chair in the sunny afternoon of the afternoon. The weariness came from his bones. It was just that his heir was not strong enough, so he could not just fall like that.
After much effort, they had finally reached an agreement on this matter, and this matter could be considered as the end of the world. However, after hearing the Prime Minister Yang Yan Ling's generous words, "Today, there is such a thing as a thief who goes around stealing Lang Zi Qing's things, causing the wind and waves, and specializes in stealing from the officials' houses at night. This matter is difficult to deal with, and this subject requests that you take it as your order, and bring it to justice to pacify the people. "Begging the Holy Judgement."
Mu Rong Shi listened patiently and frowned. He was not sure if it was because he was old, or if it was because the court officials who had followed him for a long time were old, he needed to ask for instructions for this matter. He felt a headache, but his eyes unhappily swept over the old chancellor.
"Then let …" Mu Rong Shi paused for a moment, and realized that a few officials seated at the table had quietly avoided his gaze, which made him a little angry. He did not understand why a thief could scare them to the point that their souls were scattered, "King of Grand Ling County, check it out."
Mu Rong Chun was startled, yesterday the emperor placed him in Shang Shu Province, saying that he wanted him to gain experience, and when the Japanese side heard Lu Zi Nuo and Yuan Zhi argue, they did not expect that it would all fall to him, and immediately thanked him.
After leaving the Yanying Hall, Jing Zhao Mansion Yin Li Ze followed along, "How does Your Highness wish to deal with this matter, I hope that you can enlighten me."
Li Ze was the eldest son of the secondary general Li Lei, and also the eldest brother of his good friend Li Zhao.
But Mu Rong Chun had yet to think about what he should do, if he was to only capture Lang Zi Qing, and cause the anger of the people, what should he do? If this were so, would he have the ability to catch all those corrupt officials in one fell swoop?
Mu Rong Chun could only shake his head: "We'll discuss this after we get to the Jing Zhao Mansion."
Arriving at the discussion hall in the Jing Zhao Mansion, Mu Rong Chun sat down and said: "Lang Zi Qing has always been trying to investigate with Constable Nan Chu, but he is not in the capital right now."
"No worries, I'll just take a look at the file first." Therefore, Mu Rong Chun got someone to bring over the documents related to Lang Zi Qing. He brought out one of the books and said, "You can take a look at this one first."
Mu Rong Chun understood the meaning behind joining the army, and opened it, but it was just a book, and the name was extremely straightforward, and had the kind of arrogance one would have if they did not know it, < The Heroic Thief Lang Zi Qing >.
He flipped through the pages as he listened to the conversation of the people around him. The story of the book was written in an uneven fashion, and his point of view was rather novel, moreover, the author of the book seemed to be an objective and neutral person. He did not boast too much about Lang Zi Qing, but he had exposed the faces of all the corrupt officials, indirectly slandering the imperial court, and had sharply criticized the current situation.
When he read some words that fit his heart, even Mu Rong Chun couldn't help but cheer for him from the bottom of his heart.
Just as he said that, the participating soldiers continued: "These words were written very vividly, this subordinate feels that if it was not written by myself, it would have been written by someone familiar to Lang Zi Qing."
Mu Rong Chun laughed, he did not think that the bounty placed on Lang Zi Qing by the officials these days was so bountiful, yet not to mention the people who saw Lang Zi Qing, there was not even a single person who reported to him. Why? Just as Lu Zi Nuo said, Lang Zi Qing's actions were as everyone expected. The author of this book was just summarizing the people's hearts.
Lang Zi Qing was after all a fake, and was moving in the dark, so naturally, he was much more carefree than the imperial family, who was a huge being in the open. If he didn't want to, no one would be able to catch him.
Thinking about it, it would probably be a long project, Mu Rong Chun rubbed his forehead, suddenly remembered, even summoned Lu Zi Nuo into the palace, then hurried back to the Eastern Palace.
