Chapter 62: Boarding the Boat

Although Lu Zheng is unwilling to accept such a fact, in the end, the crown prince came forward to protect his Lu family, even if he is unwilling to accept it, he has to recognize this status quo.

"Thank you, His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister is really grateful, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has any needs in the future, you can put it forward to the minister at any time, the minister can do it, and he will do his best." The meaning of Lu Zheng's words is to show loyalty to the prince, if it weren't for the fact that there was no way, he wouldn't have done it.

"With Lu Shilang's words, the palace will rest assured, but the palace is not the unscrupulous person, in other days, if the palace can ascend to the great treasure, a loyal and virtuous person like Lu Shilang, the palace will definitely be reused." The prince's words are not fake, with his current form and situation, it is very possible to reuse the Lu family, after all, the Lu family has never participated in partisan disputes, and the Lu family is relatively loyal, and there have been almost no traitorous ministers.

"Then thank you His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came forward to save so many people from top to bottom of my Lu family this time, the ministers must remember it in their hearts and dare not forget it." Lu Zheng never disdained to say these scenes in the past, but now the situation is different, dealing with this His Royal Highness the Prince, there are some scenes, what should be said has to be said, if you don't say it, how can you let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know his heart.

The prince got a satisfactory answer and left, he still has a lot of things to do, and now that the Lu family is on his side, it can be regarded as a matter of heart, such a good beginning, it really makes him happy.

After Lu Zheng went out, he told the people up and down of the Lu family about his defection to the prince, and everyone was naturally very happy about such a result, and they could avoid death, who doesn't want to live secretly?

Moreover, taking refuge in the crown prince may not be as good as the current situation, Emperor Renhe suppressed the Lu family everywhere and did not let the children of the Lu family get ahead, which has made many side branches of the Lu family feel anxious, and now there is Lu Zheng taking the lead in taking refuge in the prince, perhaps it is a new turning point for all of them, and the Lu family has risen to a new height.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to ascend the throne, it is inevitable that there will be many things and unexpected situations, if they can help the Crown Prince at that time, the future will be immeasurable.

The situation in the capital soon changed, the people who supported the five princes in the past were looking for a way, and wanted to turn around and join the camp of His Royal Highness the Prince, they were all very envious of the Lu family, that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally came to the door, such a blessing is not something that everyone can have, but those who supported the Five Princes in the past, most of them are some paranoid people, or some people who value the country, they feel that His Royal Highness the Prince is not in good health, if there is no suitable prince, they will not support the prince in anything.

Now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince showed them that there was nothing wrong with his body, but these people were taken aback, it turned out that they were all on the wrong side, and now they went to turn around and join His Royal Highness the Prince, and their faces were a little unbearable.

What's more, after the crown prince ascends the throne, it is not clear whether he will attack them, so many people are still waiting and watching the changes and dare not act rashly.

Gu Lu is also running around these times, he is looking for a suitable time to show his own position and determination to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, although he has never supported the Five Princes, he has never supported His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Now that a neutral faction like him has taken the initiative to join His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, presumably His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the East Palace will be happy to build such a thing, and with his initiative to take the lead, it is estimated that some of the remaining neutrals will be shaken.

So on the fifth day after the queen's death, he finally got this opportunity.

Emperor Renhe has not been to the court for a long time, and if it weren't for the death of the queen of the middle palace, he really needs to preside over the overall situation, and he will not appear in the court.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there is no way for the Imperial Forest Army to dispatch, who wants to escort the queen?" Emperor Renhe looked at the crowd of people standing in the court, and swept over their faces one by one, but he didn't seem to see anyone willing to stand up.

Many ministers have been very dissatisfied with the emperor's many behaviors, and naturally they are unwilling to take the initiative to stand up, such a thing is who likes to do, so there is a strange scene: the court is quiet, and only the sound of people's breathing can be heard.

Just when Emperor Renhe felt a little impatient, Gu Lu stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to go." ”

When the emperor was disappointed in this Manchu minister, it was the best time for him to stand up, and he didn't wait for the emperor to speak for the second time, because the second time he spoke, there would be some threats, and the person who stood up might seem to be forced to come out because of the emperor's threat.

This day is the day of the queen's funeral, and someone needs to take the initiative to escort the queen's coffin to the royal cemetery, this matter was originally done by the Imperial Forest Army, but now that the emperor is addicted to alchemy, all the Royal Forest Army can only stay in the palace to protect the emperor and those who have practiced the elixir.

Gu Lu's determination made many courtiers feel a little incredible, but they have always looked down on Gu Lu, this person is just a concubine of the Gu family, and he also relied on some unpopular means to become the head of the Gu family, which everyone knows.

When the prince saw Gu Lu's actions, he smiled a little meaninglessly: This person is a character who knows current affairs.

So the day after the queen's funeral, Gu Lu received an invitation from the East Palace, which was sent to the Gu family with great fanfare by His Royal Highness the Prince, which made others envious for a while.

Although everyone knows it, this is just because Gu Lu first made his position clear to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and took the initiative to escort the queen to the funeral, although they felt very disdainful of Gu Lu's behavior at the time, but this method was indeed very effective, no, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent invitations in such a high-profile manner.

Some officials were very annoyed, why didn't they think of this solution at that time? Now I have envy.

Gu Lu, on behalf of the Gu family, also stood on the side of His Royal Highness the Prince, and his action made many neutrals even more anxious.

First the Lu family stood in line, and then the Gu family took refuge, His Royal Highness the Prince's wings can be said to be getting fuller and fuller, and there are some neutrals who can't bear it, and after hesitating, they finally took the initiative to find His Royal Highness the Prince's door.

Undoubtedly, such an effect has reached the height that the prince is most satisfied with.
