Chapter 36: The Scramble
East Palace.
The crown prince sat opposite to the crown princess.
"My father is no longer good, this palace wants to compete for that position, tell your father, you can prepare recently." He has no feelings for the crown princess, but they just take what they need.
"Your Royal Highness, my father will naturally do his best for His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince only needs to take care of his health." The crown princess spoke unceremoniously, she never cared about the prince's pain.
"Don't worry, the princess, the palace is in good health." The prince snorted coldly in his heart: Do you think that the palace doesn't know your heart, and you don't look down on the palace at all, when the palace takes the throne, the queen's candidate may not be your crown princess.
"That's very good." The crown princess said coldly.
What is the prince's health, can she not know as the crown princess?
After the prince came, the princess sent a message to her father.
Lu Wan has been in the harem for more than ten years, in addition to the queen, the harem is her power, it is still easy for her to do something, the queen is old, many things are powerless, and the emperor is addicted to alchemy, it can be said that she is the biggest in this harem.
She wanted to talk to Lu Zheng, so she called the Wang family into the palace.
"Sister-in-law, you can also see the current situation, the Lu family helps my child to take the position, which is undoubtedly the best choice for the Lu family." Lu Wan spoke directly to the Wang family.
"Such a big matter, naturally, it is not something that I can do as a woman, I have to discuss it with them." Although the Wang family secretly marveled at Lu Wan's ambition in his heart, it was not revealed at all on his face.
I didn't expect that after so many years, Mrs. Lu's concubine is really soaring now, if her child really becomes the next emperor, then she will be the queen mother directly, this is the pursuit of many women in the harem for a lifetime!
At the beginning, Lu Wan was just an inconspicuous woman, but now that her identity has changed, she naturally can't despise Lu Wan.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, he will ascend to that high position one day, Lu Wan will definitely not forget the grace of the Lu family, I know that the Lu family is closely related to me, and I will definitely not do that self-digging grave." Lu Wan said everything she could say, and the rest depends on what the people of the Lu family think.
If the people of the Lu family can't figure it out, then she has to find another way, she must not hang herself on a tree, her son must be the emperor.
When the Wang family left the palace, she was always very irritable in her heart, she naturally knew what kind of treatment the Lu family would have after Lu Wan's child ascended the throne, but she was not the kind of ignorant woman who hid in the back house all day long, and did not ask about the court. She was afraid that one day the Lu family would have too much power, and at that time, she didn't know if Lu Wan would be able to keep the Lu family. Now that the emperor is still young, naturally the emperor will listen to what Lu Wan says, but if the emperor grows up, will he still be so obedient?
She doesn't ask the Lu family to be powerful, she just hopes that the Lu family can be safe, so that she has more time to find her little daughter, so many years have passed, although she has never been able to inquire about the little daughter, but she has never given up, she believes that one day, her little daughter will definitely return to her side again.
After Lu Zheng was busy, Wang told him Lu Wan's thoughts.
"I think we can take a gamble." After thinking for a moment, Lu Zheng said such a sentence.
Wang couldn't understand why her husband said that he could block it, and what if he lost the bet, what should the Lu family do? What about her little daughter.
"Have you figured it out? You have to know that if you lose, you will have nothing. "Wang is a good woman with three obedience and four virtues, and she usually listens to what her husband says, so she can't say anything to refute, so she can only remind her.
"Think about it, don't worry, we won't lose, now the most competitive are only two princes, a prince, a child of Lu Wan, although the prince succeeded to the throne, but in the end the health is not good, Lu Wan's child is healthy and smart, some ministers of the humerus in the court, I still want to see the unification of the southern country can last for a hundred years, so there must be a lot of people who support Lu Wan's children." In a short period of time, Lu Zheng thought a lot.
Today's Lu family is no longer what it looked like ten years ago, he is already the secretary of the Ministry of War, Lu Ming is not bad, although the official position is lower, but he has real power in his hands, Lu Ping relies on the imperial examination, and now it is not bad, and the Lu family also has in-laws, the relationship is complicated, and it is a family that others dare not touch easily.
Once the Lu family stands in line, many people will follow the Lu family to stand aside, and when the time comes, in the competition with the prince of the East Palace, it is not certain who will lose and who will win.
In this world, everyone wants to squeeze their heads and go up, why don't the Lu family take advantage of the trend, if they can, the Lu family will definitely usher in a new height.
Seeing that her husband was so determined, Wang stopped talking.
The situation in the capital was quickly felt by many people, and everyone was preparing and planning.
Yangzhou.
Nie Yu had already sensed the situation in the capital, so he took Lu Jinjing back to Beijing together.
As soon as Lin Feng got up, Lin Feng told him that Lu Wan's child actually joined the war for the throne, he wanted to laugh, others didn't know, but he knew that Lu Wan's child was not of royal blood, so what qualifications did he have to compete for this position.
Even though Emperor Renhe is not a good emperor, he is still the bloodline of the Nie family in the end, and the throne can be changed, but he will never allow anyone to take the opportunity to confuse the royal bloodline.
He can distinguish between personal enmity and the country, he will repay if there is hatred, and he will return the favor.
Leaving is a sad thing for Lu Jinjing, Yangzhou is the place where she has lived for so many years, although she is not very familiar with Yangzhou, she has hardly gone out in those years in the flower building, but staying in Yangzhou, there is an inexplicable sense of belonging and security.
Wen Ruoyu learned that Nie Yu took the woman of unknown origin to the capital together, and jumped to her feet angrily, "Senior brother is really, I don't know if I go, talk to me." ”
She also felt that it was faceless, but what could she do, she couldn't influence her brother's decision, even if she had an opinion, the senior brother wouldn't listen to her.
After thinking about it, she hurriedly chased after her, who made her like her senior brother, they all said that women chased men in the interlayer veil, why did she chase her senior brother for so long, and she didn't see a reaction from her senior brother.
Wen Ruoyu couldn't understand, and she didn't want to think deeply, after her father died, Nie Yu became her only support now, she didn't dare to imagine what her future life would be like without her senior brother.
She can run after him with a dead face, just because her father is kind to her brother, he will not ignore her, as long as she has the opportunity to get close to him, one day, she will definitely succeed.
