Chapter 159 Zhan Shuo leaves Beijing
The more Lu Yi thought about it, the more frightened she became, but at the same time she was determined to get to the bottom of it. After careful consideration, Lu Yi decided to go to Zhan Shuo to discuss countermeasures.
After some conspiracy, the two finally divided the work. Zhan Shuo made full use of his connections in the palace to gather information and intelligence through various channels, and paid close attention to the Queen and Eunuch Li's daily life; while Lu Yi took on the responsibility of continuing to dig for other clues and find more evidence.
Hard work really pays off! By chance, Lu Yi surprisingly discovered a mysterious diary hidden in a dark corner. Driven by strong curiosity, she opened the diary tremblingly and read it attentively. Time flies, every minute and every second is passing, and the trivial details about the queen recorded in the diary gradually emerge, and a shocking fact is about to be revealed...
Unexpectedly, the Queen had long been dissatisfied and even resentful of the Emperor's partiality to Lu Yi, fearing that one day Lu Yi would replace her and make her fall into the bottomless abyss. Coincidentally, Wanyin also resented Lu Yi because she had been suppressed by her in the past, so she chose to stand on the Queen's side without hesitation, trying to kill her opponent by borrowing a knife.
After understanding the whole story, Lu Yi was determined to expose the Queen's conspiracy. She and Zhan Shuo worked together to collect more solid evidence and carefully planned to reveal all the truth to the world at the right time.
Lu Yi looked at the pile of evidence in front of her, and a sneer appeared on her lips! This so-called evidence was nothing but ridiculous things.
The emperor still had some sympathy for her, it was just for the sake of the empress dowager, and she had saved the lives of the concubines in the harem many times. But what about now?
These former merits and friendships have now become weapons for others to attack themselves. What's more hateful is that if they want to deal with me, they can just come to my door directly. Why do they target Zhan Shixuan? Lu Yi was furious and angry. She wanted to rush into the palace immediately, grab the queen's collar, and ask her what her intentions were and what kind of muddle was in her mind!
Finally, on that sunny and breezy morning, Lu Yi and Zhan Shuo laid all the evidence before the emperor without hesitation. After the emperor finished reading it, he was so angry that his face turned blue. He issued an imperial decree on the spot: "Send the vicious queen to the cold palace and depose her immediately!"
Since then, Lu Yi's position in the palace has become more and more stable, but she has not become arrogant and overbearing. On the contrary, it is precisely because of her intelligence and kindness that she has successfully won the respect and love of everyone.
As for Zhan Shuo, he received a generous reward from the emperor for his great contribution. However, facing all this wealth and glory, he did not have much nostalgia. So, he resolutely chose to leave the palace, embarked on a journey of wandering around the world, and bravely pursued his own dreams.
Standing on the top of the towering palace, Lu Yi quietly gazed at Zhan Shuo's figure walking away, and her heart was filled with emotion. She knew that their story might have quietly come to an end, but the ups and downs and thrilling years they had gone through together would become eternal memories, deeply imprinted in each other's hearts.
After experiencing this incident, Zhan Shuo deeply realized that what Master Mingzheng said was true, and Lu Yi was indeed the destined nobleman for Zhan Shixuan. So he made up his mind to take this opportunity to show his loyalty to the emperor.
On the one hand, Zhan Shuo took the initiative to return the military power in his hands to the court in order to eliminate Emperor Tiansheng's suspicion and doubt about him and allow him to govern the country with peace of mind; on the other hand, he resolutely gave up the title of Duke of Zhenguo and passed it on to his younger brother Zhan Shijun, hoping to consolidate the family status and ensure the stability of the country in this way.
However, all this was just a superficial act. In fact, Zhan Shuo had already secretly planned his next action plan - under the pretext of traveling around the mountains and rivers, he quietly left the capital and went to a secluded place to train new troops!
