Chapter 178: The Words of the Phoenix's Life
Lu Guanlan just smiled when he heard this, "There are many places where I can use you in the future, I don't want you to die early." β
The corners of Chu Yu's mouth twitched. I really don't know if it's good or bad to follow this eldest lady.
After Ah Li came back, she told Lu Guanlan the news she had inquired about.
It turned out that there was a sudden news in the market, saying that there was a farmer on the outskirts of the city, and when he got up early to plough the fields, he found that there was a deep pit in his paddy field, so he took a closer look.
At this glance, I saw that there was somehow a beautiful jade in this pit.
The farmer took the jade from the pit and looked at it carefully, only to see a few words engraved on it. Unable to recognize the inscriptions, the farmer took the jade to the pawnshop in the city and sold it.
Unexpectedly, when the courtiers of this pawnshop saw this jade, they immediately spent a lot of money to accept it.
Subsequently, this court Feng talked about it with the same person, saying that it was engraved on the word "Lu family daughter, Shude Ronggai, has the destiny of the phoenix, and Qiwu has passed the world." β
This means that the eldest daughter of the Lu family is virtuous and virtuous, and there is a phoenix life from the sky, if you can get this woman as your wife, you can win the world.
Lu Guanlan laughed when he heard this, "This Lu family daughter, must be me?" β
Ah Li said: "Some people also say that this Lu family's daughter is not necessarily a young lady. Can be Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· Now looking at Beijing, only the young lady has been appreciated by the queen, and can be implicated in the palace. β
"That's it?" Lu Guanlan couldn't laugh or cry.
He asked, "Have you found out where the farmer is?" β
Ah Li shook her head, "The slave and maid asked people to check today, but the investigator came back and told the slave and maid that the farmer seemed to have moved away with his family, and no one could be found." β
Lu Guanlan sneered, "Do you think, who did this?" β
Ah Li pondered for a moment, and then suddenly realized, "What does Miss meanβmaster?" β
Lu Guanlan said noncommittally: "It's not entirety, here, I don't know who harbors evil intentions." β
Although she didn't know if it was Lu Bingyan or not, after all, Lu Bingyan Rujin wanted her to become the princess and concubine, but now that this matter is well known, the people in the palace naturally know it, if it is discovered, it will be the crime of bullying the king.
Lu Bingyan has always been cautious, and he may not have the courage to do such a thing.
But if it weren't for Lu Bingyan, her situation would be even more dangerous than before.
She just wondered if anyone wanted to use her as bait to take the opportunity to spy on the holy will.
Chu Yu also listened to it, and was silent for a long time before he spoke, "So, Miss, is it possible for you to enter the palace as a princess in the future?" β
Lu Guanlan knew what Chu Yu was thinking, so he turned his head and said, "You better stop thinking about it, I won't enter the palace in this life." β
Chu Yu pouted stupidly, "If you can enter the palace, then you can find out the news of His Royal Highness the eldest grandson for me." β
Lu Guanlan smiled and said, "So, you have no news over there?" β
Hatsuyu frowned, then nodded.
"I already said it, I'm just helping you find it, as for this news, you have to inquire about it by your own people," Lu Guanlan stood up from his chair with a smile and turned around to go back to the house.
Chu Yu muttered in a low voice: "But the slave is Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· Aren't they all detained by your General LiΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"
Lu Guanlan was silent for a moment, then turned his head and said to Ah Li: "Go and talk to General Li tomorrow and let the two people out." β
Chu Yu's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Really? β
Lu Guanlan said with a smile: "There is no one around me to investigate for you, after all, you are in Dacheng, and you are in charge of it." β
She is not a person of great benevolence and righteousness, and she can't care what these spies from Dayu will do to Dacheng.
She lived her life again, but she didn't want to let herself go through the suffering of the world again for the sake of the so-called righteousness of her family and country.
With that, Lu Guanlan turned around and went back to the back room.
Ah Li turned around and smiled at Chu Yu, "Now that you are also your own person, Miss has always protected the inside, you can rest assured, your people will be fine." β
Chu Yu also showed a long-lost smile on his face, "I hope so." β
In Yunxi Palace, Concubine Yun sent someone to find Cheng Ye overnight.
As soon as Cheng Ye entered the palace, he saw Yun Concubine losing her temper in front of the people below.
Hurriedly stepped forward to help Yun Concubine, "Mother, why are you doing this?" β
When Concubine Yun saw her son coming, she pulled her hair and sat down on the soft floor, "Did you hear the rumors outside?" β
Cheng Ye nodded slightly, "My son heard about it." β
Yun Concubine sneered, "Don't you hear about it, this has been spread to the palace, it seems that this Lu Guanlan does have a heart." β
Cheng Ye raised his eyes, "What does the mother mean by this?" β
Concubine Yun picked up the teacup and blew it, looking at Cheng Ye, "You say, who will your father promise Lu Guanlan to?" β
Hearing Lu Guanlan's three words, Cheng Ye's heart suddenly twitched, and he felt panicked when he didn't come.
Seeing that Cheng Ye didn't speak, Yun Concubine said again: "These days, you haven't found a chance to meet Lu Guanlan?" β
Narino was silent.
Yun Concubine glanced at Yun Li on the side, and Yun Li immediately turned around and left the palace with the palace people.
"Now even the courtiers say that this thing is true, there is indeed this strange jade from the sky, tomorrow, Your Majesty will send someone to present the jade, if what the above says is true, then Lu Guanlan is the next queen's candidate. Do you have any plans? Concubine Yun glanced at Cheng Ye and took a sip of tea.
Cheng Ye was still silent, just standing silently, as if he was thinking, and it seemed that he was thinking about something else.
Seeing that her son was absent-minded, Concubine Yun's face was angry, and she said with some hatred: "There is no backer of the mother's family behind this palace, and you can fight for your current status, do you know how much effort this palace has paid?" Now it's just a marriage between two families, you can be so careless, it's really disappointing to this palace! β
After listening to Yun Concubine's reprimand, Cheng Ye slowly spoke: "But if Cheng Mo also wants to marry Lu Guanlan, what does his son want to fight with him?" β
His deployment over the years has become more and more serious recently, not only have the spies sent to Cheng Mo's side been removed, but even the strategists who have been planted by Cheng Mo's side for many years have been sent away for some reason.
His father also valued Chengmo more and more, and did not give him the opportunity to make contributions.
Yun Concubine put down the teacup when she heard this, "If you don't fight for it, how do you know, you can't compare to that Chengmo." β
Cheng Ye's eyebrows moved slightly, "In that case, what does the mother concubine want her son to do?" β
Yun Concubine said: "Before this royal ceremony, it was autumn hunting. On top of this autumn hunt, there must be that bear, tiger and beast, if it hurts Miss Lu, do you think, who should appear next to her at this time? β
Cheng Mo's heart moved, "What does the concubine meanβ"
Yun Concubine smiled and nodded, "This matter, this palace will arrange it for you, you just need to go back and prepare, don't let yourself be injured by then." β
Cheng Mo nodded, but remembered something, and said, "But what if Lu Guanlan doesn't come?" β
Concubine Yun smiled at the corner of her mouth, "She will definitely come." β
The next day, a holy decree from the emperor came to the Lu Mansion.
He said that Lu Guanlan, the daughter of the Lu family, was very good, and she was actually a model of the official's family, and she was rewarded with gold and silver in the field.
Lu Bingyan happily took the whole family to receive the order, and even Lu Jingzhu, who had not stepped out of the hospital for a long time, called out.
After sending off the internal officials, Lu Bingyan smiled and instructed Steward Zhao, "Today's family banquet, you send someone to call Watson back." β
Steward Zhao was very happy to see his master, and naturally he was also a hundred happy, so he hurriedly turned around and did so.
Seeing this, Lu Guanlan turned around with an indifferent face, but caught a glimpse of Lu Jingzhu in the corner staring straight at him.
When I got closer, I heard Lu Jingzhu say quietly: "Big sister is so beautiful now." β
Lu Guanlan turned his head, "Isn't the second sister happy for me?" β
In the past, Lu Jingzhu must have been in the most conspicuous position in front of people, but now, it is like a pearl that has lost its luster, and it is extremely bleak.
Lu Jingzhu smiled slightly, "Naturally, I'm happy for my sister." β
Lu Guanlan also smiled, "That's good." β
With that, he turned and left.
Ping'er looked at her young lady's gloomy face on the side, and was a little worried, "Miss, after all, we have lifted this grounding now, you must not be angry with the eldest lady again." β
Lu Jingzhutong seemed to have changed as a person, and his face no longer had the pitiful look he had before, but was much more indifferent, "I know." β
Ping'er continued to comfort, "As long as we think about it in the long run, it won't be long before we think about it, and when the old man's anger is gone, we can release my aunt." β
When Lu Jingzhu heard this, his heart sank.
Now, without the protection of her mother, she can only deal with Lu Guanlan alone.
I don't know when Lu Guanlan has become such a beautiful appearance all the way.
In the past, A-Niang was favored, and the eldest lady was not loved in front of her father, in this family, except for the eldest lady, everyone looked up to A-Niang and herself.
originally thought that when the eldest lady died, A-Niang would be able to sit in the position of the main mother, but who knows, this Lu Guanlan seems to have changed as a person, calculating step by step, causing their mother and daughter to come to this point.
When did Lu Guanlan change from that cowardly and timid personality to such insidious and cunning.
When did he go from having no backing in front of him or behind him to now being loved by the queen and rewarded by the emperor.
These days, Lu Guanlan has actually sought such a status step by step, relying on his own scheming.
Even my father couldn't control it.
What did they do wrong?
Now that I think about it carefully, I realize that Lu Guanlan's cowardice seems to be pretended. pretended to be powerless to fight back, pretending to make them think that Lu Guanlan had no ability and didn't need to take it to heart.
At this time, Lu Guanlan secretly calculated to get the ticket number of his mother's family, and with the silver, he could do a lot of things, and approached His Royal Highness step by step, and then entered the palace to emerge and win the hearts of the people.
And she and A-Niang fell into the trap of Lu Guanlan step by step.
Now it seems that the reason why Lu Guanlan has waited until now is that the time has come, and after they have gone, they can only wait for death helplessly.
However, she only now figured it out.
If she could see it clearly earlier, she would not be willful, let alone cause A-Niang to be trapped now because of her reckless behavior.
At this time, Lu Bingyan happened to turn around and was about to go back to the study, and when he saw that Lu Jingzhu was still stunned, he couldn't help frowning, and said, "If you don't go back to the yard yet, what are you doing here?" β
Lu Jingzhu raised his head suddenly, tears in his eyes, "Father, daughter, these days, I often miss you. β
Lu Bingyan was also stunned when he saw this.
Speaking of which, he still prefers this daughter, this daughter who has been held in the palm of his hand for many years since she was a child. If Lu Jingzhu is also a descendant, he doesn't have to curry favor with Lu Guanlan like this.
Thinking of this, Lu Bingyan sighed deeply, "I've wronged you these days." β
Lu Jingzhu's eyes flashed secretly, but the sadness on his face did not decrease, "The father is all for his daughter, and the daughter is not wronged." β
When Lu Bingyan heard this, he felt guilty, so he said to Ping'er: "How do you take care of the second lady, how can you look a lot thinner." β
Lu Jingzhu hurriedly said: "Father, don't blame the girl, it's the daughter who misses her father, and Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· I often miss my mother. β
Hearing the word A-Niang, Lu Bingyan's eyes sank.
If Aunt Song hadn't done such a bad thing, he would still like it.
Then he said, "Go back and rest, tomorrow my father will come to see you." β
With that, he turned around and left.
Lu Jingzhu slowly hooked the corners of his lips behind him.
