After the death of the previous emperor, the Empress Dowager became arrogant

Chapter 190 Ji Kang Enters Beijing

The doctor told her that the most effective way to cure heart disease is to rely on self-healing. All external things are just auxiliary means. The key is to guide him and help him to untie the knot in his heart.

"Selective amnesia" means that he is deliberately avoiding something that makes him painful. Don't force him to remember it, otherwise it will backfire.

Judging from the current situation, Lu Nian should have forgotten everything related to Mrs. Lu.

Those were the source of her misery, and she threw them away altogether, returning to her original carefree self.

Actually, this is quite good.

Let the treatment take its course. Let her be happy for a few years as long as she can. There is no shortage of people to take care of her anyway.

If her memory is restored one day, these years will become a sanctuary in her heart.

This is a way to treat her mental illness and also an opportunity for her transformation.

In that case, she couldn't treat her like an adult.

Fortunately, she was prepared.

Yuan Qing reached out her hand and searched from behind. Lu Nian was curious and turned his gaze from her face to the back.

"Don't blink, the exciting moment is about to come."

At this time, the light in the cell was a little dim, and a faint white light flew out from behind Yuan Qing.

She raised her hand, and the glowing object fell down.

"Do you want it?" Yuan Qing asked.

Lu Nian nodded continuously.

What a beautiful butterfly! She wants it so much.

"Then just do what I did and put your hands up."

Yuan Qing moved his fingers slightly, and the butterfly flapped its wings and slowly flew towards Lu Nian.

Lu Nian placed her palms upwards, and the butterfly floated lightly into her palms.

She was afraid of disturbing the butterflies, so she even breathed lightly.

The bright white light flickered and shone on her cute face.

Yuan Qing quietly left the cell and returned to his mother.

Lou Yin didn't dare to speak loudly, she just pulled her daughter aside and asked in a low voice: "Bao, this is..."

"I asked a carpenter to make it before," Yuan Qing said with a smile, "It's very delicate, right?"

In fact, she exchanged these for points from the mall. There were two in total, which were not expensive. She just did it for fun.

She took out one for Lu Nian to play with today so that she could get familiar with it. When she came back in a few days, she could use the other one to get closer to Lu Nian.

As a girl, it was not convenient for her to stay in a man's cell, so she wanted to get her out as soon as possible.

From the test just now, it seems that she does not reject her existence.

A few days later, Duke Rong and Ji Kang also came to the capital.

Ji Kang had already become famous nineteen years ago, but when he was mentioned today, only a few old officials in the court still vaguely remembered his name.

The case was of great importance, so the Ministry of Justice gave him a separate cell and he had no contact with anyone.

Even the people who were guarding him were replaced by Dragon Scale Guards, who set up strict control inside and outside to completely isolate him from the outside world.

If people from the Dali Temple or the Censorate wanted to bring a criminal to trial, they had to take orders from above and the palace and go to the Ministry of Justice in person to go through the process before they could see the criminal.

This is also to prevent some people from going to jail and silencing murderers. The Ministry of Justice will then bear the main responsibility.

Zhong Xiao did not dare to be careless. He even moved his food and accommodation outside the prison and personally interrogated the officials who wanted to interrogate Ji Kang every day.

Tang He handed the task of interrogating Ji Kang to Lu Zhao. Lu Zhao had previously made a deal with Yuan Qing, so he didn't interfere and casually pointed to Chen Xingwei to take the lead.

Chen Xingwei took all the credit for the strange disease last time and was the most famous person for a while.

Even Wen Chengyu personally called out his name during the morning court session, praising him for his proper handling of affairs and the demeanor of a wise minister. He also asked all the ministers to take him as a role model, believing that officials must correct themselves and cultivate themselves in order to benefit the people.

All these years in officialdom were not in vain. Although Chen Xingwei was proud of himself, he knew that he had to be humble and not get cocky.

In the next few days, Chen Xingwei went through the most unfortunate period of his life and truly experienced the saying “blessings and misfortunes go hand in hand”.

For example, you might be suddenly splashed with dirty water while shopping, accidentally step on dog poop while walking, find a worm in your food, or run out of the yard for no reason in your sleep in the middle of the night, etc.

Not only that, in official affairs, his past mistakes were dug up and talked about, and his subordinates' evil deeds were jointly reported to the emperor by the censors...

No matter how stupid Chen Xingwei was, he now realized that someone was deliberately making trouble for him.

He was being watched closely in the dark, so he didn't dare to show his head again.

But since this task has been handed to him, he has no choice but to do it.

Then he thought of Gong Bin who had harmed him so badly.

The case involving Ji Kang must involve some powerful person in the court, and Chen Xingwei understood this clearly.

He suffered a lot last time when he was fighting for the credit. Why not give this "good opportunity" to Gong Bin this time? It would also make him appear tolerant and generous, right?

The more Chen Xingwei thought about it, the more he felt that he was extremely smart.

He was proud in his heart, but he looked calm, "Gong Bin, this is your best chance to show yourself. The last time was just bad luck, you don't have to take it to heart."

Yuan Qing lowered his eyebrows and replied sincerely: "Your Excellency has been kind to me and I will always be grateful to you for your support."
