Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 194 Actions of all parties and summoning Li Yunrui
"What? Master, you mean, my sister wants to take refuge with the prince? This, this is not possible, right? After all, I have endured it for so many years, why can't I endure it now?" Liu Ruyu said in surprise.

"Yes, I have been holding back for so many years, why can't I sit still now? Madam, do you think there are any big changes in the prince's side compared to before?" Fan Jiandao
"Um, sir, do you mean Grandmaster Yan?" Liu Ruyu blurted out directly

"Yes, only Grandmaster Yan can explain why sister You suddenly did this. If you think about it carefully, the prince's chance of winning is indeed much greater now."

"If nothing else, Your Majesty cannot ignore Grandmaster Yan's suggestion alone. But please remember, madam, that my status is different. Anyone can participate, except me and Chen Pingping."

"So remember, don't meet with your sister too much in the future, especially during this period, it will never happen again." Fan Jiandao
"Yes, sir, don't worry, I know, I will definitely pay attention to it in the future." Liu Ruyu said

"Okay, I've said all that needs to be said. You can go back first. I'll stay by myself for a while." Fan Jiandao
After Liu Ruyu heard this, she naturally didn't say much. After all, she had finally managed to get through it. Now she might be able to stay here longer. If her officials thought of something again, wouldn't her trouble be in vain?

Fan Jian's expression became serious after his wife left. He did not fully believe his wife's words.

After all, it was impossible for concubine Yi Gui not to tell her husband and his wife about such a big event as seizing a legitimate son. Therefore, his wife must have hidden something from her just now.

It's such an eventful time. It's hard for me to explain to His Majesty what happened in the Duke's Mansion.

And just when he was mumbling that it was difficult to explain, Chen Pingping had already entered the imperial study room with the results of the investigation and reported it to Emperor Qing.

"Your Majesty, this is the general situation. Judging from what we know so far, Your Majesty's suspicion should be true, but whether Fan Jian knows or not, I don't know." Chen Pingping said

"Haha, so the Liu family can't sit still? It seems that Yan Que is so powerful that even the Liu family can't sit still."

"I'm a little curious now. Do you think the Liu family plans to let the third son take the crown prince instead? Or do they want to assist the crown prince?" Emperor Qing asked.

"Your Majesty, this is a major matter for the Tian family. I dare not speak nonsense. I only know that the Liu family, which has always stayed out of the matter, is now involved." Chen Pingping said

"Yes. Forget it, let's stop talking about this question. By the way, where are Fan Xian and the others? How long will it take before they can return to Beijing?" Emperor Qing suddenly asked

"Your Majesty, Fan Xian and his party will return to the capital in about half a month, but Grandmaster Yan's side will probably take a month," Chen Pingping said.

"Huh? That's not right. I remember you said before that you were just a few days late in setting off? How could it be so slow? What was he doing?" Emperor Qing asked.
"Your Majesty, Grandmaster Yan did not come back alone this time. In addition to himself, there is also the Northern Qi Saint Haitang Duoduo, and the commander of the Jinyi Guards, the heavy sister Shen Wan'er." Chen Pingping said

"Huh? It's interesting. It's really interesting. What do you think Li Yunrui would think if he knew the true identity of his son-in-law?" Emperor Qing said with a smile.

"I don't dare to say anything about the eldest princess, but I know one thing. This kind of Grandmaster Yan is the Grandmaster Yan that Your Majesty needs, and he is also the Grandmaster Yan that our Qing Kingdom needs." Chen Pingping said.

"Haha, that's right. The Grand Master is also a human being and will always have some hobbies. I'll leave it to you to clean up the traces. Remember, don't make any mistakes." Emperor Qing ordered
After finishing speaking, Emperor Qing waved his hand directly. Upon seeing this, Chen Pingping bowed and exited the imperial study. After Chen Pingping left, Emperor Qing said to himself, "It's getting more and more interesting."

At this time, in Guangxin Palace, Li Yunrui also received the news that Chen Pingping had entered the palace, so Li Yunrui directly sent someone to invite the prince over.

After the prince arrived, Li Yunrui told the prince what had happened without any concealment. After that, Li Yunrui stopped talking and waited for the prince to speak.

"Auntie, on the surface, there is indeed nothing wrong with this matter, but the Liu family cannot believe it all. It is impossible for their family to have no idea at all." The prince said
"The prince is right. Their family must have ideas, so I didn't agree to her directly. In addition to Xiaoque's reasons, I also wanted to ask the prince what you meant." Li Yunrui said

Auntie, in my opinion, if possible, we might as well agree to her. Regardless of the third child's personality or anything else, I am confident that I can suppress him, so it doesn't matter if I agree.

"But will Grandmaster Yan really agree? After all, given the relationship between him and Wan'er, I'm afraid it won't be possible, right?" the prince asked in question.
"Of course Xiaoque won't agree, but Wan'er should be able to, so don't worry about this. I will naturally handle it when the time comes."

"Prince, what you have to worry about is His Majesty's side. His Majesty definitely already knows the news that the Liu family member came to see me. And after you and I met today, His Majesty probably won't be able to bear it any longer."

"He will definitely choose to summon you and me. No matter who is summoned first, we must be prepared in advance to avoid any flaws."

"And we have to be careful about that side. Although they have kept a low profile recently, we can't be careless. After all, this time the incident is big and completely different from the past." Li Yunrui said

"Yes, aunt, please don't worry, I know how powerful it is. I have always sent people to closely monitor the second brother's side. It means that it is impossible to know everything, but I can still get a rough idea." The prince said.
"Well, that's good. In that case, the prince should go back and prepare as soon as possible, so as not to be caught off guard when His Majesty really summons him." Li Yunrui said.

"Okay aunt, now that I've said all that I need to say, I'll go back first." After hearing this, the prince naturally didn't say anything more and just stood up and walked out.

After the prince left, Li Yunrui called his confidants over and gave some instructions. Half an hour after his confidants left, the second prince received the news.

At this time, the second prince was sitting on a chair, thinking about the news in his mind.

Things are really getting more and more difficult. Why does the good Liu family insist on taking action?You are already a clay Bodhisattva. Isn’t it wrong to do your duty?Why do you have to make yourself uncomfortable?

At this time, the second prince was very distressed, because if what happened this time was successful, the prince's side would be greatly strengthened in the future, and his already slim hope would be close to nothing.

On the second day, Li Yunrui met Eunuch Hou. She was not too surprised and followed Eunuch Hou directly to the imperial study room to meet Emperor Qing.

"Do you know why I called you here today?" Emperor Qing said straight to the point.
"I know. Your Majesty, you asked me to come here for the sake of concubine Yigui, right?" Li Yunrui said, "Okay, now that you know everything, do you have anything to say?" Emperor Qing asked.

"Your Majesty, I have nothing to say," Li Yunrui said directly.

"You don't have anything to say? You don't have anything to say, but you're missing, right? Didn't you and the prince have a good talk yesterday? What did you say?" Emperor Qing said directly
"Your Majesty, since you know everything, why do you ask questions knowingly? In fact, shouldn't Dean Chen report the inside story to Your Majesty yesterday?" Li Yunrui said.

"Li Yunrui, Li Yunrui, I find that you are getting more and more courageous. You even dare to guess my thoughts. It seems that Yan Que has given you a lot of confidence." Emperor Qing said
"Your Majesty, you have wronged my sister. How dare you? Besides, Xiao Que has not returned to the capital now, so my sister has nothing to rely on."

"Actually, Your Majesty, you really don't have to worry. How can I dare to make the decision on such a big matter? Why don't I wait until Xiao Que comes back?" Li Yunrui explained.

As for Li Yunrui's explanation, Emperor Qing didn't believe a word of it. Not only did he not believe it, but he was also very angry because Li Yunrui said he was wronged, but in fact he still used Yan Que to suppress him.

He shouted one after another, naturally speaking for himself, the emperor.

"Li Yunrui, listen to me. I don't care what your intentions are, but there are some things that you can't do. Once you do them, Yan Que may not be able to protect you," Emperor Qing said.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. My sister is very clear about what can and cannot be done, and the situation you mentioned will never happen." Li Yunrui said.

After hearing this, Emperor Qing smiled noncommittally, and then said, "That's all I have to say. I hope you can take care of yourself. Okay, I have nothing to do. You can step back."

"Yes, my sister, please leave." After hearing this, Li Yunrui bowed directly and then exited the imperial study.

After Li Yunrui left the Imperial Study Room, his expression did not change at all, but his heart became nervous. Otherwise, the man actually took a step back.

That's right, in the conversation just now, I was pressing forward step by step, but the man rarely chose to retreat. This was not a good sign. Based on my understanding of him, I was afraid that I was going to be unlucky.

What happened next was just as Li Yunrui expected. Emperor Qing finally took action. This move caused the loss of all Li Yunrui's arrangements in Beijing.

In addition to some informants in the palace, she was completely blind in other places in the capital. Even though she had been prepared, she was also shocked by Emperor Qing's methods.

After all, although I was not confident that my arrangement could be hidden from everyone, it would not be like being uprooted directly, but that was exactly the result.

At this time, Emperor Qing was listening to Chen Pingping's report in the imperial study.

"Back to Your Majesty, except for some informants in the palace, the rest of the arrangements have been cleaned up by me. I still want to apologize to Your Majesty."

"Because among them, there was Zhu Ge, the head of our inspection institute. Seeing that the situation was not good, he directly committed suicide, leaving no one alive," Chen Pingping said.

"Li Yunrui, Li Yunrui, what a Li Yunrui. That's all. Let's stop it here. Let's talk about it after Yan Que comes back." Emperor Qing waved his hand and said
Chen Pingping naturally didn't say anything after hearing this. She saluted directly and was pushed out. After Chen Pingping left, Emperor Qing's face became a little ugly.

Li Yunrui was so audacious that she dared to put her hand into the inspection institute. Although she had doubts about Fan Xian's matter last time, she still did not investigate in detail.

In other words, it was because of the situation at that time that there was no time to investigate in detail. It was an unexpected surprise that he was found out directly this time. However, how to deal with this Li Yunrui became a problem.

If there was no Yan Que, he would naturally do whatever he wanted, but with Yan Que around, some things would have to be discussed with him. After all, the Grand Master's face still had to be given.

When beating a dog, it depends on the owner, let alone Yan Que's mother-in-law?Therefore, this matter can only be put on hold for the time being and dealt with after Yan Que comes back.

On this day, after Fan Jian took his vacation, he went directly to court. Liu Ruyu could finally enter Ruoruo's room. She had been waiting for a long time.

"Auntie, you were too smart before. How did you think of misleading my father?" Ruoruo said.
"Of course this was planned in advance. What we do this time is no different than before. Once something goes wrong, it's no joke. According to your father's temper, we must break up the conversation."

"If Yan Que were in the capital, he might still be able to suppress him, but now that he's gone, no one can control him. Now we just have to persevere."

"We'll wait until Yan Que returns to the capital and see how the eldest princess reacts before discussing the next step. If it doesn't work, then we can think of another way." Liu Ruyu said.

"Well, auntie, we had a falling out with our father before. What should we do now? If the people in the house find out about this, they may not keep it a secret for us," Ruoruo said.
"You don't need to worry about this. I'll just keep my head down. You can play a scene with me later." Liu Ruyu said with an indifferent expression.

"Ah? This, how can this be done? You are an elder, how can you bow to a junior like me? It's better for me to do it. I am a junior myself, so it is natural for me to bow my head." Ruoruo said
"Hey, no, no, absolutely not. If you listen to me, if you listen to me, your father is still angry about what happened last time. If you are bowing your head to me today."

"Then when your father comes back and you have to scold me, let's forget it. I'll bow my head. Okay Ruoruo, this matter is settled, so don't say anything anymore." Liu Ruyu said.

After hearing this, Ruoruo could only nod a little sheepishly, and then the two people left the room, and then acted out a drama of loving mother and filial piety.

And this also shocked the jaws of all the servants in the mansion. What happened? A few days ago, weren't these two in the master's study, having a huge quarrel?Why does it seem like there's a different person today?

And soon they learned the reason. It turned out that the mistress and the eldest lady lowered their heads. How could these two people suddenly reconcile?
To say that this mistress is really capable of bending and stretching, how could it be possible if it were another family?
