Chapter 465 The Funeral (Part One)
Liu Jin and Lord Hua Guo had always beenpeting with each other for a lot of things in the court.
Although he often attended banquets and saw Lord Hua Guo''s wife for countless times, they didn''t
know much about each other, nor did he know what kind of person Lady Hua Guo was. Hearing Lady
Hua Guo''s words, Liu Jin remained silent for a moment before he apologized, "I''m so sorry for my son''s
nonsense. Please forgive us for that, Lady Hua Guo."
Lady Hua Guo waved her hand and said, "it''s just a fuss. I don''t care about it. As for the investigation
about Young Lady Liu, since you had entrusted Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice with the task,
and the Lord Hua Guo''s mansion could not intervene too much. But the Lord Hua Guo''s mansion is
also one of the victims. If you have any clue, please inform the Lord Hua Guo''s mansion at once,
Master of the court. And I thank you for that in advance. "
Hearing Lady Hua Guo''s words, Liu Jin promptly answered, "of course we should. Even if herdyship
didn''t say it, we would do the same."
"Thank you, Master of the court." Lady Hua Guo curtsied to him, and said, "as Young Lady Liu has just
died, you must have a lot of things to deal with in the mansion. So I won''t keep you here."
Hearing this, Liu Jin felt more guilty when he recalled that his wife and his daughter-inw both came to
the birthday party of Lady Hua Guo today. "I''m so sorry to make you bother yourself with such things on
your birthday day. I''ll give you a big gift after returning home. I hope you don''t mind." Then he stamped
his crutch and turned around to look at Liu Yinfeng. He let out a sigh as if he had grown much older in
an instant. "Let''s go."
Hearing this, Liu Yinfeng looked away from Yun Shang and nodded his head slightly. He then held Liu
Jin to get on the carriage.
"Look at you. Every time you see that woman, you just won''t tear your eyes off her." Then he hit on Liu
Yinfeng''s stool with his walking stick. He snorted and gritted his teeth, "I have such a disappointing son!
He used to lie to his mother for money, but now he is doing such an absurd thing in front of the public.
I''m losing my face for him. "
However, Liu Yinfeng just nced at Liu Jin and said lightly, "you''d better think about it carefully and
see if it will piss that man off. He has worked hard for all these years and finally won a good reputation
in the state of Xia. If he knows that Huansheng made such a big trouble, he''s likely to get angry."

Liu Jin''s body shook after hearing his words. He snorted. "He''s grown up now. He is obidient enough to
listen to me before. But now he thinks that I''m talking nonsense. Forget it, I don''t care about him any
more. He''s still my only grandson, and he''s as smart as his mother. I hope he can restrain himself a
little after what had happened in the state of Ning. It won''t be in vain for me to ask his majesty for
mercy. How could he kill his brother so easily? ''. If his majesty hadn''t been... I''m afraid that he would
have... "
Liu Jin let out a sigh. "It''s just that as soon as Prince Rui came back, although we temporarily stabilized
the situation of our court, I''m afraid that many things will change after the war of the Ya n is over."
Hearing the Ya n, Liu Yinfeng''s eyelids trembled, but he said nothing in the end.
"I don''t know how does that n go. She was born into a noble n, but she became a phoenix
because of her marriage. Her parents have a position in the Ya n. It will be much easier if they take
action against her. I just hope that Prince Rui would never have a chance toe back from the war
with the Ya n, and then everything would be back to what it was before. No, since his crown prince
is gone, everything will be better than before. "
Liu Yinfeng remained silent, it was clear that his mind was drifting away.
Seeing this, Liu Jin couldn''t help but frown again and became a little unhappy. He poked the carriage
wall with his crutch and snorted, "it would be better if I had you to help the seventh prince. But you
just..."
Liu Yinfeng collected his thoughts and bowed his head. He was tired of this old topic and argument,
"this is the arrangement of the emperor. Don''t forget it, my adoptive father. Anyway, whether the
seventh prince can be the emperor or not depends mostly on the emperor."
Hearing his words, Liu Jin finally shut up. He snorted and leaned against the wall, without saying a
word anymore.
"As for the issue of Young Lady Liu, what do you want me to do with it?" Liu Yinfeng was silent for a
moment and finally asked Liu Jin.
"Deal with it?" Liu Jin snorted, "Humph, what can I do about it? Since I have handed over the
investigation to the Ministry of Justice, I will just let them investigate it themselves. There is no need for
me to bother the investigation. What is the new Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice called, by the
way? Li Qianmo? I heard there is something fishy about the guy. He saved the eleventh Prince before,
and Lady Shu discovered that he was talented, so she rmended him to the emperor. His majesty
thinks highly of him after several meetings. I have inspected him. He is indeed talented, smooth and
clever. Now he has been promoted to the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice in less than a year.
This is the first time that I have seen this since I have been an official. "
Nodding his head, Liu Yinfeng replied, "previously the emperor also suspected the identity of that
person and had sent dozens of people to investigate him. But nothing special happened. Li Qianmo
was from a rich family in the Lin Qi City and is thest disciple of Liu Yunqi, the famous hermit. On a
personal visit to Liu Yunqi, I have made a background investigation of him. Li Qianmo is indeed his
disciple. He has been studying under his name for nearly six years. Previously, he lived in seclusion
with him. A year ago, he was sent by Liu Yunqi to toughen himself in the city. "
