Chapter 22: The Cruel Truth, the Acting Against the Will

At this moment, the sad Lu Zhan was finally released from the prison of Jingzhao Mansion, and his reputation for a lifetime was over, and his reputation as an outstanding writer and a famous general was completely covered by this stain.

Seeing the third uncle Lu Qian take himself out with a cold face, without saying a word on the way back, this is much more terrifying than being angry. Lu Zhan didn't dare to speak along the way, but silently followed behind the third uncle Lu Qian.

Lu Qian, who was silent, was finally willing to speak: "I know that today's incident is definitely not intentional on your part, let's say who caused you such a big trouble."

Lu Zhan told Lu Qian the reason and process of the incident, and Lu Qian was not angry but happy after listening to it. Lu Qian said to Lu Zhan: "I won't hide it from you at this time, it's true that you and the princess are married, but just relying on a princess is like making my Lu family bow down to my ears."

"What does the third uncle mean?"

"I'm sure you get the idea. Marriage to the royal family is nothing more than a pretense. When the Lu family and the Lu family need to draw a line with the royal family, that princess will have no value. When the time comes, she will marry another one. ”

"Third uncle, are you saying that the royal family or the Lu family just use the princess as a tool, right?" Lu Zhan's voice gradually began to become choked, and even the tone of his voice began to tremble.

Since ancient times, harmony has been a means of sacrificing women, and after the establishment of various dynasties, only the Ming Dynasty has achieved no harmony and no tribute. Now he and the five princesses are both victims in the game of power and interests.

"That's right, the interests of the family always come first. Zhan'er, you must not know much about these things after you have spent a few years in Shuozhou. In the future, you will slowly understand that you will have to assist your cousin Lu Tingchen in the future, and it is inevitable that there will be some unavoidable hardships for the family. ”

Seeing that Lu Zhan didn't speak again, Lu Qian said to Lu Zhan again: "After you change your clothes, you are going to enter the palace, and you want to find a way to explain to the Son of Heaven and the Fifth Princess, I shouldn't need to teach you this."

"Yes, third uncle, nephew understands." After speaking; Lu Zhan got up and went back to his room, and Xiao Yezi, who was standing aside to change Lu Zhan's coat, saw Lu Zhan's iron-blue face, and it was difficult to ask.

Lu Zhan buried his head in the copper basin when he washed his face, this is what Lu Zhan learned from the movie, after a short feeling of suffocation, Lu Zhan breathed a sigh of relief and rearranged his state, after all, the teacher taught him in high school, the road of struggle is tortuous, but the future is bright.

Since we want to change the society of "people eat people" written by Mr. Lu Xun, we must first make ourselves stronger, because to protect the light and instigate, we must first hide in the darkness.

Got on the carriage and went to the familiar and unfamiliar palace again, the heavy palace door slowly opened, Lu Zhan once again walked to the palace where the Son of Heaven was located with a bumpy mood, and saw the magnificent palace.

"The criminal minister Lu Zhan knocks to see Your Majesty." Lu Zhan honestly practiced etiquette.

"I know that Aiqing must have something for a reason, and I don't want to hear you say, you can go and explain it to the princess yourself."

"Minister, the order is to retire."

Under the leadership of the familiar Cao Zhen and Cao's father-in-law, she walked to the princess's bedroom, and the princess, who was already sitting in the position, looked at Lu Zhan expressionlessly, and when she saw Lu Zhan, who was stared at a little hairy, the fifth princess burst out laughing.

"I've heard about last night's incident, but I'm still convinced of Mr. Lu's character. Did Honguya's expression just now scare you, I just teased you. The fifth princess couldn't help but laugh when she looked at Lu Zhan, who looked helpless.

God, such a beautiful, intelligent, innocent and lovely girl, how can I bear to lie to her and make her happy. This is really a sin, and he relied on deceiving her to stabilize the alliance between the royal family and the Lu family. This is the most bumpy mood Lu Zhan has had since he came to this world, is he destined to be a villain?

Lu Zhanqiang endured the ups and downs in his heart, with the smile he had practiced in acting class before, showed eight teeth, and said with a natural expression: "The minister knows that Her Royal Highness the princess will not be confused by the illusions made by those deliberate villains."

The smile that was forced by the acting teacher to practice with chopsticks in her mouth successfully confused the five princesses who didn't know the sinister outside world and were simply like canaries.

"Lu Gongzi, this palace knows that there must be a reason for something, and someone like Lu Gongzi will definitely not do that kind of thing. By the way, can you tell me more about the ins and outs of the matter? The fifth princess asked Lu Zhan with a puzzled face.

Lu Zhan changed the story to someone who couldn't see the Lu family and the royal family marrying each other, and after talking about the matter in detail, the fifth princess pursed her lips and said: "These people are really hateful, they act so viciously for their own selfish interests."

Seeing the four words of righteous indignation written on his little face, Lu Zhan felt a little more guilty in his heart, and now he should be the one who will do whatever it takes for the sake of profit, the difference is that most people are selfish and Lu Zhan is for the interests of the vast majority of people.

After chatting with the fifth princess for a few more words, Gonggong Cao handed a look to the side, meaning that it was not appropriate to stay for a long time, Lu Zhan understood that he would find an excuse and left the fifth princess's bedroom.

After leaving, Lu Zhan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, after all, it was too tiring to pretend to be an innocent victim. I finally don't have to put on a mask for a performance, which is really relaxing.

Lu Zhan, who was riding home in the carriage, felt that the carriage suddenly stopped, and when he opened the curtain to see what was going on, a familiar figure appeared in Lu Zhan's eyes.

"Brother Lu is in a hurry to go home now? If you're not in a hurry, go with me somewhere, and I'll have the horses ready. Zhang Wangdian, who was sitting on a tall horse, said to Lu Zhan.

"It's not going to be a private room in a teahouse again, is it? Laifu, you go back to the house first, and Young Master Ben still has something to do. After speaking, he jumped off the carriage, sat on the horse prepared by Zhang Wangdian, and followed Zhang Wangdian I don't know how many intersections he turned. Finally stopped at a remote courtyard.

Zhang Wangdian turned over and dismounted and said to Lu Zhan: "Brother Lu, please."

After entering this remote courtyard, Lu Zhan couldn't help but sigh that this courtyard was particularly elegantly arranged, and when Lu Zhan was looking around, two familiar figures appeared in Lu Zhan's eyes.

"Brother Xu, red-sleeved girl, why are you two here?" Lu Zhan couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart when he saw these two people.

"Brother Lu, I won't tell you that this is the condition that Brother Zhang asked me to throw you on the street and promised me, redeem the red-sleeved girl and arrange a house to house the red-sleeved girl."

"Good guy, I really stabbed my brother twice for a woman."

Lu Zhan and Xu Hao looked at each other and smiled. Lu Zhan thought to himself, this Zhang Wangdian wouldn't just take himself to see Xu Hao and the red-sleeved girl.

Sure enough, what happened next almost didn't scare Lu Zhan into doubting his life.
