Chapter 373: Composure
Hearing that Princess Chengyang was involved in this matter, Lu Qingrong was not surprised at all.
From this point of view, the situation on Princess Jing's side is self-evident.
The tonic came from the Empress Dowager Wu in the palace, and the imperial doctor who asked for peace was recommended by Princess Chengyang......
Although Lu Qingrong always knew that Empress Dowager Wu's heart had deviated from the East Palace very early, he never expected that she would go into battle in person like this.
"If that's the case, Princess Jing can only eat this dumb loss?" Lu Qingrong sincerely felt sorry for Tang Yue.
"They dare to be so unscrupulous, they are convinced, even if the emperor knows, he will not take the two of them, and those so-called punishments are simply not worth mentioning for them." Jiang Xuan's eyebrows tightened, and he pondered for a moment, "Moreover, if this matter really makes trouble in front of the emperor, maybe he will blame King Jing for acting improperly!" ”
Lu Qingrong nodded helplessly.
She also understands that this matter is far from being as simple as deciding the merits.
It is difficult for a clean official to cut off family affairs.
In the final analysis, this is still a family affair of the emperor and his family. If there is any difference from the common people or the noble family, it is the unique dragon chair on the Jinluan Palace, which adds a taste of life and death to every competition.
Lu Qingrong knew very well that in their special world, before they won completely, the outcome of all disputes, no matter how they were measured, would never be judged by right or wrong.
"It seems that King Jing and the princess are destined to be wronged this time......" Lu Qingrong sighed to himself.
"Not really. Fortunately, you found out about it, otherwise the medicine would have been taken for a long time. There's really no way to turn around. Jiang Xuan paused, and then said with a smile: "King Jing doesn't care about it for the time being, the princess is there." I'm definitely going to treat you as a benefactor! ”
Lu Qingrong glanced at him, but he knew in his heart that he was relieved of himself.
Jiang Xuan put away his smile and immediately became much more serious, but his voice was surprisingly gentle: "Will you ...... Feel wronged? ”
Jiang Xuan couldn't hide his distressed expression.
Lu Qingrong saw it and knew that he was referring to Mrs. Wu's delivery of medicine to herself.
"What do I have to be wronged by?" Lu Qingrong asked rhetorically, his tone relaxed and natural. "From beginning to end, none of the calculations she made to Yuyuan have succeeded!"
So bluntly put. directly made Jiang Xuan laugh.
Lu Qingrong added: "This time, the source of the medicine is eighty percent the same...... Let's not mix ourselves up. Besides, if the evidence is kept, it can't run. When the time comes, you can't wait for the day when you will settle the general account? ”
As soon as these words came out. Jiang Xuanwei was stunned for a while, only to feel that his wife, sometimes like an innocent and shy little girl, sometimes she was so steady and reasonable that she didn't speak like words, and it was the latter at the moment.
Jiang Xuan was really down-to-earth at this time, remembering her previous words, and quipped: "She really didn't succeed once?" ”
Lu Qingrong didn't react for a while, and really recalled the things that Mrs. Wu had done in recent years for a while. It wasn't until he saw Jiang Xuan's appearance that he tried his best to hold back his smile that he realized that he was teasing himself.
I was about to speak. Lu Qingrong suddenly remembered that the group of maids who appeared in the morning were also Mrs. Wu's masterpieces......
Lu Qingrong suddenly changed his mind and sighed: "Her calculations are not aimed at me alone, it all depends on whether you can hold on......"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Jiang Xuan's deep voice: "I can't hold on......"
Lu Qingrong was about to frown, but when he raised his eyes to see his extremely unnatural look, his eyes were full of smiles and a little anticipation.
Instantly understood, Lu Qingrong didn't want to blush, but he couldn't control it.
Jiang Xuan's words were definitely from the heart.
But a lot of things happened today, and Lu Qingrong worked hard all day, not to mention that the two of them tossed until they were ugly last night before falling asleep...... Jiang Xuan didn't want to exhaust her.
Seeing that the night was approaching, the two hurriedly freshened up, changed into bedclothes, and went back to the room.
Jiang Xuan finally endured it, hugged Lu Qingrong, and soon fell asleep together.
Early the next morning.
As soon as Mao Zheng passed, King Jing's Mansion sent someone to invite Jiang Xuan.
And by the time Lu Qingrong woke up, Jiang Xuan had already been out for more than half an hour.
Lu Qingrong pondered in his heart, he was in such a hurry early in the morning, it should have been Tang Yue who told the second prince about this......
Shaking his head silently, Lu Qingrong didn't want to think about these troubles for the time being.
She made up her mind to save these for Mrs. Wu, and when the time comes, the new accounts and the old accounts will be counted together.
As everyone knows, Mrs. Wu is still smug and feels that there seems to be a momentum of transshipment recently.
Last time, I heard that Jiang Xuan seemed to have placed an outer room in Muxi Hutong, and he was even pregnant, which made Mrs. Wu so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, and she wanted to see Lu Qingrong's jokes. At that time, he went to Yuyuan to fan the flames.
It's just that since I mentioned it to Lu Qingrong on the day of the fight, several days have passed, and there has been no movement.
Mrs. Wu couldn't sit still.
Could it be that she really wants to watch Jiang Xuan give birth to a son outside and come back?
At this moment in Qinyi Courtyard, Mrs. Wu is complaining to Lu's mother.
"What's the situation with the Lu family? How do you do things so slowly! Mrs. Wu's tone was not good, and the meaning of complaining was fully revealed.
"After all, Mrs. Shizi is young, she must have good intentions and can't bear to do it......" Lu's mother echoed on the side, and did not forget to look around, for fear that others would hear this.
"With her usual style, she can't tell that she is young!" Mrs. Wu was not angry, and calmed down for a while before asking, "Over there in Yuyuan, has there been any news recently?" ”
Mother Lu did not respond immediately, but hesitated for a moment, thinking in her heart, those unimportant things should not be taken out so that Mrs. can respond.
Seeing that Mother Lu's face was abnormal and she wanted to speak, Mrs. Wu was even more impatient: "If you have something to say, just say it!" Don't babble like that! ”
"It's not a big deal...... I just heard from the maids of the Yuyuan that in the days before and after Mrs. Shizi's birthday, she got along with Shizi very well. Lu's mother considered the words.
"Humph!" Mrs. Wu naturally understood the meaning of her words, snorted coldly, showed disdain, and said, "She is smart and knows how to put her mind on the world!" I want to see if the belly outside really gives birth to a son, and she still can't laugh! ”
Mrs. Wu finished speaking in one breath, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a sinister smile.
"Is this kid definitely the prince's?" Lu's mother asked questions for many days.
"Are you sure, let's go and see for ourselves!"
Mrs. Wu, this is not just lip service.
As soon as the words fell, she stood up and walked away. (To be continued......)
