Chapter 39 Emperor Yu: Who gave him the courage?
Ning Fan strode into the Lu Mansion, smelling the smell of blood in the air, and couldn't help but frown slightly. It was the first time he saw blood, and he was really not used to it!
"Your Highness!"
Seeing Ning Fan's figure, Jiang Wei quickly strode forward to greet him, followed by several Jinyi guards in Feiyu uniforms.
"how's it going?"
"Reporting to Your Highness, everyone in the Lu family, except those who are direct descendants of the Lu family, are also involved!"
"Take me to meet Mr. Lu!"
"yes!"
Under the leadership of Jiang Wei, Ning Fan came to a splendid courtyard, and saw an old man in brocade clothes sitting on the grand master's chair in front of the courtyard, his expression calm and intimidating!
"Lord Lu!"
Ning Fan cupped his hands with a smile, a gentle smile on his face, which really made people unable to feel the slightest dislike.
Ma Yingjie's eyes fell on Ning Fan, examined him for a long time, and then said in a deep voice: "It seems that His Highness is not as unbearable as the rumors say."
"Your Majesty gave birth to a unicorn child!"
"Your Excellency, you are exaggerating!"
"It seems that I won't be able to hear the morning bell tomorrow!"
"Your Excellency, I admire the situation!"
"Haha!" Ma Yingjie didn't seem surprised by Ning Fan's reply. Instead, he said calmly: "What His Highness did today was probably not His Majesty's instruction!"
"Oh?" Ning Fan had a look of surprise on his face. He stood quietly and looked at Ma Yingjie: "I wonder what Mr. Lu has to say?"
"If His Majesty knew about this matter, he would never let His Majesty act recklessly!"
"That's true!"
"His Highness is so confident, it seems he is very sure of me!"
"Haha, if I were in someone else's shoes, I don't think I would be able to be as calm as Mr. Lu!"
"What Your Highness said is true. If I were in another position, I wouldn't be able to be as calm and calm as Your Highness!"
Both of them burst into laughter. Ma Yingjie stood up slowly from the Grand Master's chair and walked towards Ning Fan step by step. Jiang Yu's eyes flashed with danger and his hand was placed tightly on the handle of the knife.
Just as he was about to take action to stop him, he saw Ning Fan taking a step forward and reaching out to stop him.
"Back off!"
"I want to have a few words with Mr. Lu!"
"yes!"
Jiang Wei and others retreated silently. Ma Yingjie looked at Ning Fan with admiration in his eyes. He stopped three feet in front of him and said softly: "Your Highness, you are too reckless tonight!"
"What do you mean by this, sir?"
"Tomorrow morning, Your Highness will probably have to face verbal and written criticism from all the civil and military officials!"
"so what?"
"Does Your Highness know that half of the officials in Beijing are disciples of the Chen family?"
"My lord, are you threatening me?"
"No!" Ma Yingjie shook his head slightly and said softly: "I am reminding His Highness not to underestimate the Chen family!"
"Thank you!"
Ning Fan took the booklet from Ma Yingjie's hand and said with a smile: "Jiang Wei, send Mr. Lu on his way!"
"Your Highness!"
Ma Yingjie suddenly trembled, looked at Ning Fan closely, and said hoarsely: "For the sake of this discount, can you keep a bloodline of my Lu family?"
Ning Fan had a gentle smile on his face, but the luster in his eyes was extremely cold, and his attitude was beyond words. Ma Yingjie laughed maniacally when he saw this: "Everyone in the world has misjudged me, Ma Yingjie, but who in the world can? Clear King Xuan Yong?”
"The next generation is to be feared, the next generation is to be feared!"
Ma Yingjie burst into laughter, suddenly took out a dagger from his sleeve, and stabbed himself in the heart. Before he died, he looked at Ning Fan and moved his lips slightly...
"Sir, let's go!"
Ning Fan stood there for a long time before a soft voice sounded in the courtyard: "Jiang Wei, is it time to move on?"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Jiang Wei wiped the blood marks on the blade, looked at the group of Jinyi guards behind him, and whispered: "According to the list, before Mao hour, all these people's homes will be confiscated and executed!"
"As you command!"
…
The palace!
Tianwumen!
Jing Li's face suddenly changed as he listened to the general in front of him whispering, and his eyes were full of worry: "Send my order to block the streets around Lu Mansion immediately. No one is allowed to enter or leave!"
"As you command!"
"You, follow me into the palace!"
"yes!"
The general followed Jing Li in fear and said in a low voice: "Commander, Your Highness has one more thing to tell you, please tell me!"
"Um?"
"His Highness said... let you guard the palace strictly. There will be several people to be killed later, so don't let you come forward..."
"What!"
Jing Li stumbled and almost fell down the jade steps. He looked at the general and said in a deep voice, "Are you sure that these words were spoken by His Highness King Xuan Yong himself?"
"It's absolutely true, the general is willing to guarantee it with his head!"
Jing Li took a deep breath and quickened his steps. When he reached the palace, he was stopped by several eunuchs.
"Commander Jing, what happened? You came here late at night?"
"Eunuch Wei, please inform Your Majesty that I have something urgent to see you at the end of the day!"
"this……"
A look of embarrassment appeared on Wei Ying's face, and he said softly: "Commander, it is already midnight, and His Majesty has already gone to bed. If Sheng'an is disturbed, our family cannot bear it!"
"Eunuch Wei, the matter is urgent. Please inform me. If Your Majesty is to blame, I will bear the full responsibility!"
"Commander, what are you talking about!" Wei Ying immediately beamed when he heard Jing Li's words: "Commander Jing, please wait a moment, we will go in and report it!"
"Thank you!"
Not long after, Wei Ying hurried out of the palace and whispered: "Commander Jing, His Majesty invites you in!"
"Okay, please lead the way, eunuch!"
"Who is this..."
"This is my lieutenant!"
"Please take off your armor and weapons, it's late at night!"
"Okay!"
Jing Li also took off his armor and was about to enter the palace when another figure flew over with a panicked look!
"Commander!"
"The sixth family!"
"Boom!"
Jing Li's figure shook, suppressing the turmoil in his heart, and looked at Wei Ying on the side: "Eunuch Wei, hurry up, take us in!"
Seeing Jing Li's loss of composure, Wei Ying was also unambiguous and led the two of them towards the palace.
Emperor Yu, wearing a robe, sat in front of a jade table, yawned, looked at the people in a hurry, frowned slightly: "Jing Li, what happened? Why are you so flustered!"
"Your Majesty!"
"Half an hour ago, His Royal Highness Prince Xuan Yong led the Jinyiwei to confiscate the family of Minister of Revenue Lu Hao and execute them!"
"What did you say!"
Emperor Yu stood up suddenly, and instantly lost all his sleepiness, with an unbelievable look on his face: "Tell me again, whose house did Ning Fan confiscate?"
"Minister of Revenue, Lord Lu Hao!"
"Boom!"
Jing Li's words exploded in Emperor Yu's mind like a bolt from the blue. The old eunuch beside him was also shocked and looked dazed. He only heard Jing Li speak again in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, not only that... At the moment when I entered the palace, His Royal Highness had already massacred six families!"
"Rebellious son!"
"This rebellious son... How dare he!"
"Lord Lu is a second-rank official in the court!"
"Who gave him the dog courage!"
