Chapter 263
But in any case, the frontline harem continued to have good news, and the emperor was in a good mood. Guo Xun took this opportunity and asked his valet to tell the emperor a story. He was talking about the round in "The Legend of Heroes", and wanted to raise Guo Ying's position to be on par with Xu Da, Chang Yuchūn and others.
Who is the emperor, who dares to export his opinions to the emperor is really courageous. The emperor's original intention was to let Dongchang beat the maid and eunuch beside him, but he learned that Guo Xun not only wrote the "Brave of Heroes and Martyrs" of his ancestors, but also raised a group of literati, compiled and published many books, including a banned book. - "Water Margin".
"Water Margin" existed at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, because Emperor Hongwu himself was a peasant army uprising, and there was no contradiction in seeing the rebellion in the book, but it could not be publicly promoted. Therefore, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, there has not been a publicly published "Water Margin" on the market. Some people secretly copied the book and spread it in a small area. The court has always turned a blind eye to this, and the people do not raise officials and do not investigate.
But now, Wuding Hou Guoxun is publishing "Water Margin".
The emperor would not decide that his ministers rebelled just because of a rumor, but he had to ask Lu Heng to investigate to see what Guo Xun was doing in private.
This is why Lu Heng watched "The Legend of Heroes". Of course, if the time is right, Lu Heng doesn't mind pushing Guo Xun.
Fu Tingzhou and Guo Xun have been bound. The greater Guo Xun's power, the safer Fu Tingzhou will be, and Fu Tingzhou will give back to Guo Xun when he contributes to the military. Lu Heng couldn't let these two people continue the virtuous cycle, and he had to cut off Fu Tingzhou's milk warehouse as soon as possible.
Therefore, this time to investigate Guo Xun, Lu Heng is bound to win.
Chapter 87 Study
Wang Yanqing thought that Lu Heng was doing things again, but he didn't expect that there was this hidden story. If Guo Xun bought the manpower and intended to influence the emperor, but was suspected by the emperor, then Guo Xun deserved it. Wang Yanqing softened and said apologetically, "So that's what happened. I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."
Lu Heng shook his head: "When you first woke up, you were like a wooden man who listened to other people's arrangements. Now you feel unhappy to be able to say it. Even if the person being told is me, I am very happy."
Besides, Lu Heng felt that Wang Yanqing did not misunderstand him.
Lu Heng's words were very straightforward, and Wang Yanqing was embarrassed to say, "Don't talk about the past, I just woke up and didn't know anyone, so I could only follow you."
The smile on Lu Heng's lips turned cold slightly, yes, they were able to get to where they are today, to put it bluntly, it was because Wang Yanqing mistook him for Fu Tingzhou. If she saw Fu Tingzhou or another man when she woke up that day, would she be so close and trusting each other?
Is she willing to marry him, or the "second brother" she imagined?
Lu Heng was silent for a while and did not speak. To Wang Yanqing, she was just a casual remark and didn't take it to heart. Although she lost her memory, she later returned to normal under the care of her second brother. No matter the past or the present, she and the second brother have not changed.
But when she thought of how no one could believe her when she first woke up and followed Lu Heng step by step, Wang Yanqing still felt extremely ashamed. She didn't dare to recall the stupid things in the past, so she changed the subject and asked, "Brother, the emperor asked you to investigate Marquis Wu Ding, where do you plan to start the investigation?"
Guo Xun is not an ordinary person. If Lu Heng was to investigate him, Guo Xun would have erased the traces early in the morning, and he might even have beaten Lu Heng. This kind of thing can only be done in secret. It is not easy to know what Guo Xun is thinking without disturbing Guo Xun.
Lu Heng put away those trivial and useless hatreds, no matter who she was thinking about, she was going to marry him, and investigating the past was useless except to block Lu Heng herself. Lu Heng got up and walked towards the desk: "The spies have sent information, and they have found the literati who wrote the "Brave of Heroes" for Guo Xun. I don't dare to change it randomly. Therefore, before this book is published, the last person to pass it must be Guo Xun. If you can get the original manuscript of "The Legend of Heroes and Martyrs" and compare the finished product, you can know what Guo Xun was thinking. ."
When Wang Yanqing heard these words, he was taken aback, and he was very impressed. It was an impossible paradox to dig out the thoughts in his mind without telling the other party, but Lu Heng was able to come up with an impossible solution. Wang Yanqing was amazed. She followed Lu Heng to the desk and saw him take out a portrait from the drawer. Wang Yanqing looked down and asked, "This is the person who wrote the book?"
Lu Heng nodded: "That's right. According to the informant, this person gave the manuscript to Guo Xun."
Lu Heng got the portraits, and wanted to check the background information, identity and address. Wang Yanqing asked, "Who is he?"
Lu Heng took out a thin booklet from the side, but did not hand it to Wang Yanqing, but placed it on the table. Wang Yanqing could only lean over and looked at the words on it. Lu Heng logically grabbed Wang Yanqing's waist and circled her in front of him: "The characters are a little small, so be careful to look bad when you stand so far away."
Lu Heng supported the table with one hand, and wrapped Wang Yanqing's waist with the other, wrapping her between his body and the table. Wang Yanqing glanced at his hand and said, "I can take it back to my room and take a look."
With a serious face, Lu Heng said seriously, "No, this is top-secret information, you can't leave the study."
Wang Yanqing wanted to turn over the book with both hands, and had no time to clean up Lu Heng's hands, so he had to go. But in summer, the clothes were light and thin, and Lu Heng had bad intentions, and soon he was no longer satisfied with hugging his waist. Seeing that Lu Heng's hands were getting more and more excessive, Wang Yanqing had to hold the book with one hand, grab his hand with the other, and turned to look at him with a warning: "This is in the study, don't mess around."
