After receiving the imperial edict to go to war, the British Duke summoned Luo Yining and asked her to take good care of her grandmother and family during his absence.Luo Yining agreed one by one and prepared items that his father might need for the expedition, such as gold sore medicine and the peace charm obtained in the temple.
Unlike in the past, when he received the imperial decree and rushed to the front line with no worries, this time the British Duke was somewhat reluctant to leave at the front line.Mrs. Han noticed something strange about him and asked why. The British father confessed that now that he had a daughter, he no longer wanted to fight on the front line.
In order to completely win Wang Yuan's trust, Luo Shenyuan began to bribe him frequently.Once, he went there with a box of jewelry and fine wine, and accidentally fell asleep on the table during the dinner.Wang Yuan ordered his men to send him back to the guest room to rest, and ordered his servants to keep an eye on him.
At midnight, Luo Shenyuan put on night clothes and sneaked into Wang Yuan's study to look for evidence.Suddenly, he heard footsteps, which he expected to be from Wang Yuan, and immediately flew up to the roof.Sure enough, he saw a soldier hurriedly delivering a letter to Wang Yuan, with an object such as a token attached to the letter.After Wang Yuan read the letter, he burned it on the spot.Luo Shenyuan saw the contents of the letter on the roof, and specially wrote down the pattern of the token and gave it to his subordinates to imitate.
Soon, bad news came from the front line. The team led by the British Duke was surrounded by the enemy, and the 20,000-strong army suffered heavy casualties.Due to a severe storm on the front line, the whereabouts of the British Duke's body are still unknown.
After Wang Yuan learned the news, his subordinates told him that although the body had not yet been found, the British Duke was undoubtedly dead.Therefore, Wang Yuan took advantage of the fact that the emperor had not yet understood the truth, and accused Luo Zhi of treason with the British public in an attempt to raid the entire palace of the Duke.
After Lu Jiaxue learned of this, he immediately rushed to the British government residence to pick up Luo Yining and the old lady.However, Luo Yining firmly refused, believing that as the legitimate daughter of the British Duke, she could not abscond at this moment to avoid dishonoring the British Duke's reputation.Luo Yining resolutely decided to stay in the British palace, while Mrs. Han hurriedly entered the palace to meet the Queen Mother.
At this time, Wang Yuan's men had arrived at the door of the British Duke's Mansion. Luo Yining bravely walked out of the door and faced the knife-wielding guard.Zhao Mingzhu saw this and called Lu Jiaxue.In order to protect Luo Yining, Lu Jiaxue did not hesitate to break up with Wang Yuan.
Wang Yuan asked Luo Shenyuan to come forward to resolve the matter, but Luo Shenyuan pointed a sword at Luo Yining, hoping that she would open the door and accept the house raid.Lu Jiaxue also drew his sword and faced him. As long as Luo Shenyuan dared to take a step forward, he would fight him to the death.The situation was extremely critical, and at this moment, the imperial edict came.Luo Shenyuan presented all the evidence he had about Wang Yuan's smuggling and collaboration with the enemy to the emperor, and the emperor immediately ordered Wang Yuan to be convicted.
Wang Yuan regretted that he originally regarded Luo Shenyuan as his minion, but now he discovered that there was a great undercover hiding next to him!Before going to jail, he hinted to Lu Jiaxue that he still had leverage over him and asked him to think twice before choosing a stance.
