Chapter 315 The Thief Cries Thief

The Dali Temple questioned He Shouzheng, but unfortunately He Shouzheng didn't know anything and couldn't provide any useful information. He couldn't get any information out of the question.

While the two were talking in the hall, a lot of people came to the Dali Temple in a short while. The Dali Temple was originally a judicial center, and ordinary people were not allowed to enter. However, these people who came were all royal children, and they came in a fierce and violent manner, and the guards of the Dali Temple couldn't stop them.

"Where is that devil?"

"This is intolerable! What is intolerable?"

"The devil is really too much! The Dawu Dan Bureau is the private property of the royal family! How dare he touch it? This clearly shows that he doesn't take our Yuan royal family seriously! Not to mention His Majesty!"

"Killing someone means killing someone!"

"First, he offended the Empress Dowager at the banquet, then he openly called in famous prostitutes in Beijing as a son-in-law, which made the royal family lose face. Now he has directly attacked the output of our royal family! This guy is simply lawless and extremely arrogant!"

"It would be good if he took the initiative to run to the Dali Temple to confess his crime! These members of the Dan Bureau he arrested are just the ironclad evidence of his crimes!"

"It is difficult to quell the public anger without killing them! It is difficult to show the saintly virtue without getting rid of them!"

...

The crowd was so angry that they surrounded the Dali Temple's office and shouted to kill Lu Yu.

"Your Highness... This case is complicated. It will take a long time to get to the bottom of it. Why don't you go back and recuperate first? We will notify you when we find out something."

Seeing that the situation was getting serious, Dali Temple Minister Fang Weiming leaned close to Lu Yu's ear and whispered.

No matter what the reason behind this matter was, if this prospective prince really had a conflict with the royal children on his territory, no matter which side suffered, he would be in trouble.

"Go back?"

Lu Yu smiled coldly: "How can you ask me to go back in this state? Can't Lord Fang see it now? The person behind the poisoning of me may be hiding in the crowd outside. Lord Fang doesn't order a thorough investigation at this time. Does he want to condone the evil?"

Fang Weiming was speechless. Lu Yu directly accused the royal children outside of being the murderer behind the poisoning. He didn't dare to respond.

For a moment, he felt overwhelmed and didn't know what to do, so he looked at He Shouzheng for help.

How could He Shouzheng dare to take this hot potato? He looked at the other person's eyes and pretended not to see the other person's eyes.

Finally, thinking of the good relationship between the two, He Shouzheng couldn't bear it and asked: "Sir Fang, has this matter been reported to His Majesty?"

Fang Weiming replied: "As soon as I learned about this, I sent a letter to the palace!"

He Shouzheng said again: "Your Highness is worth a lot of money, and the marriage with Duke Gao is about to take place. This matter is not trivial. Sir Fang, I think you'd better go there in person and report to His Majesty.

Fang Weiming originally planned to get more clues about the case and then report to Emperor Jialing in person, so as not to be asked anything when he met the emperor. At this time, after listening to He Shouzheng's suggestion, he immediately understood.

"What General Manager He said is very true! I'm going to the palace to see the emperor!"

After saying that, he hurriedly stood up and left, his feet seemed quite impatient. It was obvious that going to the palace to see the emperor was just a cover, and the real purpose was to avoid the tense situation that was about to break out.

Fang Weiming's departure caused quite a commotion outside. The royal children were relentless and demanded that Fang Weiming must severely punish the murderer, but Fang Weiming was not willing to agree. He said that he must go to the palace to see the emperor and asked His Majesty to come out and make a judgment. It was not easy for him to get rid of the entanglement of everyone.

However, the tense situation did not ease with Fang Weiming's departure. Instead, it became more and more intense. There were constantly royal children with guards, surrounding the entire Dali Temple office. After all, Lu Yu's actions today could be said to have affected their most fundamental interests.

"Your Highness, are you... okay? "

He Shouzheng looked at Lu Yu's face, which was half ice and half fire, and asked carefully.

At this time, he was in great admiration for Lu Yu's cultivation. Just sitting next to Lu Yu, he felt his body was sometimes cold and sometimes hot, alternating between cold and hot, which was extremely uncomfortable, but Lu Yu was in the attack of these two completely different toxins, but he still remained conscious, and even his sitting posture was impeccable. It must be said that this cultivation was really profound.

But he didn't know that the appearance of the two states of ice and heat was just the result of Lu Yu manipulating the power of true water and true fire in his body. Lu Yu had even refined and swallowed the extremely hard and yang Nine Yang True Water and the extremely yin and soft Huanli Pearl, so it was naturally no problem to simulate the alternating invasion of cold and heat.

"I won't die for a while!"

Lu Yu replied, and while speaking, he pressed out a flame that sprang up from his sleeve with his hand.

He Shouzheng was so shocked that he shuddered. He felt a chill in his heart. "Why don't you take care of yourself here for a while? The guards from the Dali Temple are guarding here, and people outside can't get in for a while... I'll go out and see what's going on outside..."

Lu Yu said, "It's boring to sit here. Why don't we go out and see together!"

"This..."

He Shouzheng was stunned. Didn't the prince-to-be know that people outside were coming for him?

He was poisoned and surrounded by powerful enemies. In such an unfavorable situation, he still wanted to go out? Could it be that this man didn't want to die?

However, after Lu Yu finished speaking, he patted him on the shoulder and walked out first. He Shouzheng had no choice but to follow him out. At the same time, he prayed silently in his heart, hoping that the royal children outside would keep their sanity and not let the situation get out of control.

After walking out of the government office, He Shouzheng found that there were far more people than he had imagined. In addition to the royal children in the palace, some officials also rushed to the scene.

It was because of these officials who maintained order at the scene that the situation was not out of control. The most important one among them was Zhou Zunian, the Grand Tutor who was one of the three ministers.

Zhou Zunian saw Lu Yu walking out with He Shouzheng, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat. After seeing Lu Yu's alternating cold and hot state, he was even more shocked.

"How did it become like this?"

Zhou Zunian said in astonishment.

In fact, he knew Lu Yu's purpose. From the beginning when the two of them decided to cooperate, he used the Dawu Dan Bureau as bait to show goodwill to Lu Yu. Originally, when something like this happened today, he thought it was just a play directed and acted by Lu Yu himself, but at this moment, seeing Lu Yu's appearance, he couldn't help but doubt it again. Could there be an accident in the middle? Was he really poisoned?

Lu Yu sneered, "Mr. Nian, it seems that someone doesn't want me to marry Duke Gao, and sincerely wants my life!"

Zhou Zunian frowned and remained silent.

At this time, a man who looked like a prince snorted heavily and shouted angrily, "Stop playing tricks here, the thief is crying thief! The national teacher will be here soon. Whether you are really poisoned or just pretending to be pitiful, it will be clear at that time!"
