Lu Heng had a cold expression, but when he heard the name, his eyes narrowed slightly.

Shen Xibi?

The Jin Yiwei behind him was surprised and asked, "There are so many concubines in the palace, why did the emperor give it to Shen Xi?"

"Shen Xibi doesn't seem to have done anything recently, why does the emperor think of her?"

Lu Heng was silent and stepped into the hall first. The subordinates followed behind Lu Heng and said, "Captain, there is already a princess and three princes in the palace, you have to hurry up. Although official business is important, don't stay in Nanzhen Fusi and the imperial city all day. , you should go home more often."

"Yeah." Another Jin Yiwei, who has been married for many years, advised, "The relationship between husband and wife is like a mirror. The longer they are together, the brighter they become. If you leave the family alone for a long time, the husband and wife will become separated, and they will not be able to make up for it later."

Lu Heng lifted his clothes and sat behind the case, raised his eyebrows when he heard these words, and finally nodded lightly: "I understand."

When the subordinates saw Lu Heng's bland appearance, they all felt that Lu Heng didn't listen at all, and they couldn't help but feel anxious. But Lu Heng was in a panic, did he not want to go home? Is it because he doesn't want to get tired of his new wife?

Lu Heng felt heartbroken when he thought about these things. He didn't want to remove the red dress in Lu's house, and he didn't want to face the deserted room alone, so he could only run to Fusi in Nanzhen. As a result, everyone felt that he was crazy about his work, and even his new wife could be left out in the cold.

Lu Heng was really wronged.

Guo Tao secretly winked at everyone, and the others wisely resigned after receiving Guo Tao's instructions. After going out, some people couldn't help but gossip with their colleagues: "Previously, the governor never got married, there are guesses outside, and some people even said that the governor doesn't like women. I didn't expect the governor to get married and still work as hard as before. In my opinion, The governor's favorite thing is obviously to handle cases, he doesn't want to marry because he thinks women are wasting his time."

The companions tutted, shook their heads and said: "Maybe this is the reason why the governor became a second-ranking official at the age of twenty-five, and we can only go around in the sesame official. However, the governor is really big-hearted, and he will leave his wife in the harem and stay there. Throughout the day, he didn't care where he went in the middle. Although those brothers wouldn't do anything out of line, and the eunuchs were cleansed, they were still foreign men after all. They supervise the madam to stay with other men, and neither would do you mind?"

In the hall, Guo Tao asked the same thing. After listening to it, Lu Heng didn't care, and said, "What do you mind? She is going to the harem to do some serious business, and not doing some shady deeds. Am I not trusting my wife or my subordinates?"

Of course Guo Tao did not dare to question the Duchess's wife, but, as Lu Heng's close confidant, he had to think a little more for his lord. This is Nanzhen Fusi, the trustworthy people around him, Guo Tao simply doesn't care whether it is rebellious or not. He stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Commander, of course I don't doubt my wife. It's also not good for Madam's famous festival if it spreads out."

Guo Tao spoke earnestly and looked at Lu Heng seriously. Lu Heng understood what Guo Tao meant, but he was worried about something else.

When Wang Yanqing went to the concubines' palace to ask questions, there was an eunuch guarding him, and Lu Heng would accompany him occasionally when he went to see the emperor. Lu Heng believed in Wang Yanqing and the emperor. Although there is no friendship between the monarch and his ministers, Lu Heng firmly believes in this aspect that the emperor will not do anything wrong to his friends.

The emperor was not someone who would be carried away by beauty. He knew how much Lu Heng cared about Wang Yanqing, so he would never be attracted to Wang Yanqing. Wang Yanqing is indeed beautiful and moving, but there are so many beauties in the world, why did the emperor want to break the bottom line of the emperor and ruin the tacit understanding between him and Lu Heng for nearly 20 years on a whim?

Moreover, some of Wang Yanqing's more sincere personalities are not liked by the emperor. The emperor prefers the delicate and lively little woman like Concubine Cao Duan. Lu Heng wouldn't look down on the emperor and Wang Yanqing with dirty thoughts, but that doesn't mean other people won't.

Obviously, the emperor now regards Wang Yanqing as a useful tool for detecting lies. Now the emperor asks Wang Yanqing to identify the concubine. What about after he has tasted the sweetness?

Will the emperor's greed escalate and let her identify courtiers? This is a road of no return. Once this step is taken, Wang Yanqing will be in danger.

As of now, no one has noticed Wang Yanqing. Because Lu Heng was suspicious and suspicious, he rarely returned to the palace during this time and did not arouse suspicion from outsiders. When Lu Heng was attacked at the wedding, with his cautious strength, he secretly moved his wife's place and quietly changed his place to live. It was quite normal.

As for Lu Heng sending Wang Yanqing to the palace to investigate the case, not many people knew about it. After the change of the Renyin Palace, the Forbidden City was put under more control, and the entrance and exit of the palace had to undergo extensive inspections, and the news inside could not be transmitted to the outside at all. And every time Wang Yanqing entered the palace, Lu Heng personally picked him up. After entering the palace, the East and West factories led the way, so there was no need to worry about the news leaking. Even if some family heard the news in the palace, they would sigh that Lu Heng was really unscrupulous. In order to hold the power in the palm of his hand, he even asked his wife to inquire about the news.

Their spearhead is still Lu Heng, and no one realizes Wang Yanqing's sharpness.

This is a good thing. Playing as a pig and eating a tiger is the magic weapon that never goes out of style. No one likes to be seen through their hearts, especially in the officialdom. Which official has few secrets that must not be revealed to others? When Wang Yanqing inspected the harem, the courtiers opened one eye and closed the other. Once Wang Yanqing pointed out which official was lying, everyone would gang up and attack him.
