Chapter 1055: Groundless

If Zhou Tianqi marries Lu Manting and becomes the crown prince again, Lu Zhenting may still feel that things are under control. However, in this situation, how could the Lu family let Zhou Tianqi become the crown prince?

Lu Zhenwei saw Lu Zhenting bowing his head and pondering, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he continued: "Also, they said that the Seventh Prince didn't like Manting, and it was the Queen Mother who forced Manting to the Seventh Prince, and it was also set to let them get married on the day of General Feng's sacrifice. So, I God, and several stars fell down at night. They said that the marriage between the Seventh Prince and Miss Lu Er was angered by the heavens, and even Master Lingyin and Her Royal Highness the eldest princess couldn't stand it, so they went to the palace to beg the emperor to take back his fate. ”

Lu Zhenting was shocked when he heard this, and asked in disbelief: "Who spread these words? How could such a thing be known by those little people?"

Lu Zhenwei was stunned for a moment, and muttered suspiciously: "What? Is it true? I thought it was just those people talking nonsense!"

Lu Zhenting tried to calm his mood, shook his head, and said, "I don't know yet, but Master Lingyin and Her Royal Highness the eldest princess did go to see the emperor tonight, and then the emperor decreed that the marriage was canceled." The rumors are not groundless, but I am afraid that someone deliberately spread the rumors. Otherwise, how could this matter have spread so quickly since it happened tonight?"

Lu Zhenwei nodded solemnly and said, "Big brother is right, someone must have arranged it a long time ago, but who is this person? Even Master Lingyin and Her Royal Highness the eldest princess can be invited, it's really not simple, it's scrupulous!"

Lu Zhenting thought of one person in his heart, and that was His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, Zhou Tianqi himself. Because, Zhou Tianqi is not only the apprentice of Master Lingyin, but also the most beloved imperial nephew of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess. The most important thing is that Zhou Tianqi has repeatedly expressed that he is unwilling to marry Lu Manting as the side concubine of the Seventh Prince. If it weren't for Lu Zhenting threatening Zhou Tianqi with news about the Feng family, I am afraid that he would have gone to Zhou Changan to ask for a divorce. However, why did he change his mind the day before the wedding? Wasn't he afraid that he would tell the emperor about the existence and hiding place of the Feng family's army?

The hall became quiet, Lu Zhenting, Lu Zhenwei, and Chen Suzhen were puzzled, and a black shadow suddenly fell in the center of the hall, it was Ah Dong, the leader of the secret guard of the Guogong Mansion who had come and gone without a trace.

Ah Dong bowed down and stood in front of Lu Zhenting, and said respectfully: "Master, my subordinates are fortunate not to be dishonored, and the truth has been ascertained. ”

Lu Zhenting nodded hurriedly and hurriedly ordered, "Tell me quickly, what's going on?"

Ah Dong lowered his head slightly, did not raise his eyes to look at anyone, and recounted the news he heard in detail from beginning to end, without emotion.

First of all, Zhou Tianqi entered the Qinzheng Hall from this evening, and he didn't know what dispute happened with the emperor, and the emperor's angry scolding came from the Qinzheng Palace.

Then, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess suddenly entered the palace and asked to see the emperor, and went straight into the Qinzheng Palace, and even Gonggong Qi did not stop him. After that, there was also an angry rebuke from the emperor.

Later, Master Lingyin asked to see the emperor, went in for a while and left, roughly the same as Chen Jue's inquiry. However, after Master Lingyin left, some people heard the laughter of the emperor and the eldest princess, and they didn't know what Master Lingyin said, which actually resolved the estrangement between the emperor and the eldest princess for many years.

After Her Royal Highness the eldest princess left, the Seven Princes went out of the palace, and I heard that they were going to the Seven Princes' Mansion to take care of the affairs of the palace and prepare for the memorial of General Feng Lao tomorrow.

After the Empress Dowager got the news, she rushed to the Qinzheng Palace as soon as possible and asked why the emperor made such a ridiculous decision. However, the emperor did not follow the Queen Mother's wishes this time, and complained that the Queen Mother arranged the wedding of Zhou Tianqi and Lu Manting on the memorial day of General Feng.

Lu Qishan was stunned when she heard this, of course she knew that tomorrow would be General Feng's sacrifice day, but Zhou Tianqi didn't know. She arranged it this way to make those old subordinates of the Feng family dissatisfied with Zhou Tianqi and make them suspicious and suspicious. She originally thought that Zhou Changan had the same idea, but she didn't expect that Zhou Changan would pretend not to know at the moment and blame her for the crime.

Zhou Changan sighed lightly and continued: "Queen Mother, this time is different from the past, seeing that a war is about to start, I can't chill the hearts of those generals. Moreover, although we are afraid of the Feng family's army, if we really fight, we may have to rely on them. Since Qi'er now has the opportunity to take them for his own use, we will support him for the time being, and if the Nanyue Kingdom enters in the future, they can be regarded as a barrier to the capital. ”

Only then did Lu Qishan know that Zhou Changan was playing this abacus. However, from Zhou Changan's words, she also heard another meaning. If the Feng family army helps the Zhou family, then even if the royal army falls into the hands of the Lu family in the end, Zhou Changan will not be afraid. Who doesn't know that the Feng family army is invincible? However, after 20 years, is the Feng family army still so powerful? I'm afraid that those old things are no longer good, right?

Seeing that Lu Qishan didn't speak, Zhou Changan knew that she was digesting what she had just said, so he casually observed Lu Qishan's expression, slowly picked up the tea bowl next to him and took a sip gently.

Lu Qishan frowned slightly, and asked coldly: "Maybe the day chosen by the mourning family may indeed be inappropriate, but it is also unanimously recognized by the emperor, the Ministry of Rites, and Si Tianjian." Let's not say whose fault it is for the time being, since the days are not good, how can it be canceled if it is postponed for a few more days?"

Zhou Changan shook his head and said helplessly: "The queen mother doesn't know, Master Lingyin said that there is a change in the sky tonight, which is a great omen that is rare in a hundred years of the Great Sealing Country, and that omen directly refers to the marriage of Qi'er and Manting." Therefore, Master Lingyin said that Qi'er and Manting cannot get married, otherwise it will bring disaster to the Great Feudal Kingdom. ”

Lu Qishan was stunned, he didn't expect Master Lingyin to dare to say such a thing, was it just to help Zhou Tianqi refuse this marriage?

However, Lu Qishan didn't dare to question Master Lingyin's words openly, and after thinking about it, he proposed: "Your Majesty, why don't you come to the palace from Xuansi Tianjian and tell us about the changes in the stars tonight, what is the mystery?"

Zhou Chang was a little uneasy, worried that the answer given by Si Tianjian would be different from what Master Lingyin said. What should I do then?

However, since Lu Qishan had already proposed it, he couldn't refuse, so he had to nod and say, "Okay, it's still the queen mother who thinks about it thoroughly." As he spoke, he instructed Gonggong Qi outside the hall: "Qi Hai, Xuancao Jian is coming to the palace to see me immediately!"
