Chapter 150
Now that Lu Hao has spoken, the two sisters also entered the barrel.

"No more..."

The two sisters struggled symbolically for a few times and finally gave up.

After a big battle, the two girls were fast asleep, but Lu Hao was in great spirits and did not feel sleepy at all.

Today it seems that we have obtained evidence of the Prime Minister's crime, but it seems that we have obtained nothing.

The old and cunning prime minister has been in the officialdom for many years, how could he possibly leave any clues for him?

If there was no evidence to prove that the Prime Minister was treasonous, we would not dare to touch him at all.

Once the prime minister is arrested on unfounded charges, the court will be in chaos and the empire will be destroyed.

Murong Yuan would never take such a big risk.

Lu Hao thought over and over again, trying to find evidence of the Prime Minister's rebellion from other aspects, but found nothing.

Even the last time Yu Wenji assembled the Guards for training, the loopholes were filled in the later Ministry of War documents.

Besides, the Prime Minister has just reached an agreement with the Empress Dowager, and both parties have sent people to establish the Imperial Military Aircraft Department. At such a critical moment, they dare not touch the Prime Minister.

What's even more depressing is that I don't know that the one who controls the poison is the Prime Minister?Or is there someone else?

After not sleeping well all night, Lu Hao entered the palace early in the morning, only to find that the emperor had fallen into a coma.

"Eunuch Yan, wasn't the emperor fine for the past two days? Why did he fall into coma again?"

Lu Hao asked anxiously.

"Last night at midnight, the murderer behind the scenes activated the poison again. I tried my best to suppress the poison. If it is activated again, the emperor may..."

When Eunuch Yan said this, his expression became sad, and the consequences were self-evident.

Lu Hao also made a sound in his heart, and his expression changed drastically.

"Eunuch Yan, no matter what, we must save the emperor's life. Whatever you need me to do, just give me your orders."

"Xiao Liuzi, your mission is to quickly catch the person who poisoned me."

Eunuch Yan said in a deep voice.

"Eunuch Yan, my servant has actually found some clues and is about to report to the emperor..."

Lu Hao glanced at Murong Yuan who was unconscious on the bed with a grimace.

"What clue? Bring it to our house and take a look..."

Eunuch Yan said anxiously.

Without saying a word, Lu Hao handed the confessions of Xiao Sanzi and Xiao Yingzi, as well as Zhang Tao's information, to Eunuch Yan.

"It turned out that these two little minions gave the emperor the poison? If I had known, we would have slapped them to death!"

Eunuch Yan looked very angry.

"Instigated by Zhang Tao? Zhang Tao is also the Prime Minister's retainer? Could it be that..."

Eunuch Yan said to himself, his face darkened.

"Other evidence points to the Prime Minister, but the servant has no conclusive evidence! There is nothing that can be done against the Prime Minister."

Lu Hao explained with a grimace.

"What evidence? This is the evidence? The emperor is about to die now, what kind of evidence do you still have to talk about?"

Eunuch Yan was filled with murderous intent, and he was obviously truly angry.

"Father-in-law, what should we do now?"

Lu Hao asked for advice.

"What else can we do? He led people to arrest that old guy Yu Qian, and he actually dared to poison the emperor. He really deserves to die!"

"Our family will report this matter to the Queen Mother immediately. As long as she is accurate, we can take action."

Eunuch Yan is not ambiguous when it comes to important matters.

"Okay! I'll wait here for news about my father-in-law."

Lu Hao also agreed with Eunuch Yan's approach.

It is a matter of life and death for the Emperor. There is no room for hesitation, let alone mercy.

It's a pity that Lu Hao still thinks too much of the Queen Mother.

How could the Empress Dowager, who had only been in power for a few days, be willing to hand over power?
After a cup of tea, Eunuch Yan hurried back.

"Eunuch Yan, what did the Queen Mother say?"

Lu Hao greeted him. "The Queen Mother was also very angry after seeing the evidence, but she told us not to act rashly for the time being, for fear of alerting the enemy."

Eunuch Yan responded.

"The Queen Mother doesn't have any instructions?"

Lu Hao said puzzled.

"The Queen Mother has told you to continue collecting evidence. She will discuss with Mr. Guancheng to see how to deal with the Prime Minister so as not to shake the foundation of the imperial court."

Eunuch Yan explained.

"My slave understands and must get conclusive evidence as soon as possible."

Lu Hao nodded slightly.

"Master Lu, the Empress Dowager asked you to go to Cining Palace. I have something to explain to you."

Eunuch Yan said.

"Minions take orders!"

Lu Hao bowed slightly and excused himself.

……

Cining Palace.

The Queen Mother looked at the evidence sent by Eunuch Yan, her face was livid, and she sat on the chair, seeming to be thinking about something.

The prime minister of the empire wanted to kill the emperor. If this news spread, wouldn't the Great Yan Empire become a joke to all countries?

In any case, even if it was known that Yu Qian was behind it, he could not be accused of murdering the emperor. He could only be charged with other crimes.

Of course, if he were charged with treason, it would be the same as murdering the emperor, and he would become a joke to all countries.

If everything goes well and the plan is thorough, the Prime Minister will be captured and the Emperor's poison will be cured.

So what does the future affairs of the court have to do with the Ai family?

If the emperor has been seriously ill or died, and ten-year-old Murong Yao ascends the throne, wouldn't he be able to control the power of the court?

However, Murong Yuan was his biological son, so how could he bear to see him killed?
It is difficult to decide between family affection and power!
"The Queen Mother, Mr. Lu is outside asking for an audience."

Nalan Xiuting's voice brought the Empress Dowager back from her thoughts.

"Master Lu, please come to the inner room to speak."

The Queen Mother came to her senses.

After a while, Lu Hao, led by Xiu Ting, arrived at the Queen Mother's inner room.

Nalan Xiuting quietly went out and closed the door of the room, leaving only the two of them.

It was obvious that the Queen Mother had something secret to discuss with him.

"Slave Xiao Liuzi pays homage to the Empress Dowager!"

Lu Hao knelt down respectfully.

"Master Lu, you are in official uniform now, so you don't need to be so polite. Get up."

Shangguan Fengyi said with a smile.

"Thank you Empress Dowager!"

Lu Hao slowly stood up.

Now, he is wearing the official uniform of the Supervision Department, which is more majestic than the official uniform of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The black official uniform is calm and elegant, with a tiger pattern embroidered on it, which makes him look majestic and domineering.

"Mr. Lu, the Ai family has seen these evidences and they all point to the Prime Minister of the empire. However, there is no conclusive evidence."

"As the Prime Minister of the Empire, murdering the Emperor is a very serious accusation. If there is no personal or material evidence, we would not dare to arrest the Prime Minister easily."

Shangguan Fengyi said in a deep voice.

"My slave will definitely find the evidence."

Lu Hao said loudly.

"Master Lu, you have to understand the Aijia. Now, once the Prime Minister is arrested, the imperial court will be in chaos, and Jiangshan Sheji will have fun."

Shangguan Fengyi said again.

What she said was true. Chen Lin sent troops to attack Xixia, Liu Mu in the north was ready to move again, and the Sui Empire in the south was also gathering troops in an attempt to make a comeback.
