Chapter 646 Accidental Death Dali Temple "Sir, why would His Majesty send you to Nanyang to be a small county magistrate? Isn't this a waste of talent?" "That's right. I heard that Nanyang County is located in the southern barbarian land and is very chaotic. In recent years, several county magistrates have died in unclear circumstances. So many high-ranking officials in the court are afraid of death and no one wants to take over this hot potato. Now, this hot potato has fallen on your head." "What do you think your Majesty is thinking? There are so many civil and military officials in the court, why must you go alone?" "Your Majesty is becoming more and more confused." "Alright, stop talking. If someone hears us, they might think we are dissatisfied with His Majesty's decision." Hearing this, the faces of several subordinates changed slightly, and they dared not say anything else, for fear that they would implicate their masters by saying too much. At this moment, Lu Hanyang was sitting in front of the table, leaning back, rubbing his forehead with his slender fingertips, his face showing a bit of fatigue. Thinking about what happened a few days ago, Lu Hanyang got a real headache. He thought that the assassin took him away to torture him or kill him, and he didn't think that the other party would really tell him the real purpose of murdering the former princess.
Unexpectedly, the other party actually said it, but Lu Hanyang didn't think that the other party's purpose would be so simple. The secret history of the imperial palace decades ago, the empress killing her sister and father, and harming loyal officials, every single thing, which one of them, as a subject, could he listen to? Lu Hanyang has been feeling uneasy and vaguely uneasy ever since he was sent back. It was not until the empress appointed him as the magistrate of Nanyang County in the court that he felt a sense of crisis. Although the affairs of Nanyang County were troublesome, they were not to the point where he, a Dali Temple official, had to step in. The change in the empress's attitude made Lu Hanyang feel uneasy and his face looked heavy. I'm afraid the journey to Nanyang will not be peaceful... — Yaochi Palace “Master, the plan went smoothly. The empress did send Lu Hanyang to Nanyang.” “Oh, even if Lu Hanyang is innocent, as long as he has any connection with the rebels, given the empress’s sensitive and suspicious nature, I’m afraid she won’t keep him.” Weren’t those ministers who knew about the situation liquidated after she ascended the throne? Lu Hanyang is good at handling cases, but the strange thing is that he knows too much. I'm afraid I'll never come back from Nanyang. This...is also his purpose, isn't it? The enchanting nobleman in red was half lying on the beauty couch, his slender fingers resting on his legs and tapping them lightly, his eyes half closed, humming an unknown tune, looking cheerful and comfortable. The subordinate beside him frowned and couldn't help asking, "Master, I don't understand why we are spending so much effort to alienate the Empress and Lu Hanyang?" "Lu Hanyang is just a Dali Temple official. Even if he is quite capable, he has no influence on our affairs." Calculating the time, it's almost time to close the net. Lu Hanyang alone won't be a problem, so why bother with this? The subordinates don’t understand the significance of this move? Yao Guijun raised his eyes slightly and glanced at his subordinate, and said in a cold voice: "You don't need to understand, just do what I say." Subordinate: “Yes!” …… One month later
The news that the Dali Temple Minister encountered bandits on his way to Nanyang and fell off a cliff with serious injuries spread back to the court, shocking the whole country. Is there really some terrible monster in Nanyang County? Not to mention that several county magistrates had died one after another, the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple had some martial arts skills and was protected by the Black Cavalry sent by the Empress, so how could he still lose his life? Now no one dares to take over the hot potato of Nanyang County. What if someone dies like the Dali Temple Minister? The empress had received secret information long ago that the people she sent failed to capture Lu Hanyang at all. Lu Hanyang had already been injured, but a group of men in black appeared out of nowhere and rescued him. The empress was so furious that she believed that Lu Hanyang had betrayed her and was connected to the rebels. Maybe he approached her in order to collude with her and plot something bad! wild ambition! Eat everything inside and out! The empress was furious in the court and accused the Chief Justice of Dali Temple of being killed by bandits. She casually appointed a military general to suppress the bandits and avenge the Chief Justice of Dali Temple. A certain general was about to cry: I am a coward, can you please replace me with someone else? Empress: Get out! (End of this chapter)
