So it's better to avoid suspicion to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Taisun also thought it was better, so he nodded.
"it is good."
In the past, the emperor would come to Lu Lin to discuss any important matter if he spoke loudly, but he didn't come this time.
Lu Lin knew the seriousness of the matter, but he didn't understand what happened to make the emperor a different person overnight.
Could it be that the emperor got some news confirming that the prince rebelled?
That shouldn't implicate Yang Shiqi and the others?
Yang Shiqi has always been very neutral. Just because he explained the situation for the prince, he was thrown into the prison by the emperor, which is too unreasonable.
The prince rebelled, but was only fined to contemplate his mistakes behind closed doors, while Yang Shiqi was thrown into the prison for only explaining the situation.
How do you look at it, the emperor didn't come for the prince, but Yang Shiqi?
Cleaning up the prince and cutting off the prince's wings is actually just to warn the prince that the emperor is still alive and let him not be too presumptuous.
But what could Yang Shiqi do to make the emperor so angry?
Lu Lin began to recall the things along the way. Since when did the emperor change?
But after much deliberation, nothing was found. The emperor seemed to have remained unchanged.
But something must have gone wrong, and it was on their way back to Beijing.
"Let's go find Liu Sheng."
Lu Lin said to Taisun.
"Liu Sheng?"
"Yes, Liu Sheng."
Although Liu Sheng is not the emperor's confidant, he is in charge of the three armies, and he must know who goes in and out of the barracks.
Chapter 271
After discussing with Taisun, Lu Lin immediately changed into night clothes and sneaked to find Liu Sheng in the dark.
Although Liu Sheng was a martial artist, he was still startled when he saw two men in black standing beside his bed in the middle of the night.
Almost jumped up and drew his sword.
Lu Lin tore off the cloth covering his face: "Master Liu, don't panic, it's me."
When Liu Sheng saw it was Lu Lin, he was relieved.
"Lord Lu, you're up in the middle of the night, what's the matter?"
Lu Lin was also polite and sat directly on his bed.
"There is indeed something, there is something, I want to ask Mr. Liu."
Seeing that he was so serious, Liu Sheng ran over in the middle of the night and looked at the person next to Lu Lin.
Although he didn't take off his veil, but looking at his figure, he can probably guess that he is the grandson, so it must be because of the prince's affairs.
The emperor dealt with the prince and others so decisively, how dare he take care of the affairs of the prince and His Majesty, since he is only an official.
So he said in a particularly embarrassing way: "Lord Lu, the lower officials don't know anything."
"Don't be nervous, I'm just asking something, I won't implicate you, and we came in in the middle of the night, no one found out."
When Liu Sheng heard this, he nodded and heaved a sigh of relief.
"I don't know what Master Lu wants to know?"
"I want to know, is there anything happening in the barracks that we don't know about in the past few days?"
Liu Sheng thought about it for a while, and it was true, but if he couldn't say it, he really couldn't say it. This is His Majesty's repeated orders not to spread it to outsiders.
If it gets out, all his nine clans will be finished.
Liu Sheng suddenly knelt up with a "plop".
"Lord Lu, don't embarrass me. I really can't talk about this matter."
Seeing how frightened he was, it turned out that Lu Lin's guess was correct, something really happened on their way back to Beijing, which made the emperor afraid of the crown prince and aimed at Yang Shiqi.
Lu Lin recalled the description of the prince's meeting in the history books, and did not mention what happened in the army, but the dispute was provoked by the King of Han.
"Then what did the King of Han do?"
Han Wang?
Liu Sheng was stunned for a moment, Han Wang had nothing to do with that matter, so to speak.
"Yes, Lord Han once sent someone to leave the barracks at night, but he didn't know where he was going."
Liu Sheng only knew about the comings and goings of the people in the barracks, as for where they were going, he had no time to worry about it.
Especially the other party is Hanwang, and it is not his turn to take care of it.
But he didn't know why this Marquis Lu chose to name King Han. Could it have something to do with the Prince's pick-up?
Although he thought so, Liu Sheng didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the royal family, he just answered what others asked, and he didn't know anything else and ignored it.
Lu Lin didn't expect Liu Sheng to be able to explain the whereabouts of King Han clearly. After all, King Han didn't need to explain to Liu Sheng what he was going to do, especially when he was on his way back to court.
But after hearing Liu Sheng's words, Lu Lin probably guessed it too.
At that time, something happened in the military camp that only the emperor knew about, but the king of Han did not know how to know about it, so he sent someone out of the camp to inform the crown prince of the wrong time for the army to return to Beijing.
That's why the incident of welcoming the driver happened.
But if it was just a matter of meeting the driver, the emperor would definitely not deal with it so decisively.
Not only did he put the prince under house arrest in disguise, but he also imprisoned San Yang, the head of the civil servants.
Among them, there must be some connection.
"Thank you, Mr. Liu. I don't think Mr. Liu, like the next one, wants anyone to know about what happened tonight."
"The officer understands."
