Chapter 270: I'm going my own way
Lu Yan was silent for a moment, looked up at Su Man again, and said in an affirmative tone: "You have told the old lady about these things." ”
Su Man's expression did not change at all, and he only nodded slightly: "Yes, grandmother already knows my plans." ”
Lu Yan pursed his lips, as if he was thinking about what he was going to say next, but Su Man didn't give him much time, and said directly: "I have made up my mind about this matter, my brother has always been very smart, I don't need to say that I naturally understand why I made such a decision." ”
Lu Yan still felt that something was wrong, when he died in his previous life, the Su family seemed to be full of flowers and everything went well, but the three princes were really thoughtful, just with Wei Yong's foolishness, he didn't think that he could ensure the smooth development of the Wei and Su families for a hundred years.
Su Man frowned at Lu Yan, knowing that he was still hesitating.
It's no wonder he hesitated, in his previous life, the third prince Yan Wang ascended the throne as the emperor, it seems that this is the best choice for the Wei family and the Su family.
After all, the foreign family of the third prince Yan Wang and the Wei Su family are both world friends, and even if they don't protect the two families, they won't be as suspicious as they are now.
Indeed, facing such a choice is indeed very risky for a person who has experienced a lifetime, after all, in his previous life, Shen Yizhi has never appeared this person.
Su Man couldn't explore why this person didn't appear in the capital in her previous life, she could only see that what happened after Lu Yan's death in her previous life was far less beautiful than he imagined.
I think of the civil unrest that broke out again, the young people who went and returned, and the palace that was in ruins.
Su Man took a deep breath, although she didn't know who the young man was and whether it had anything to do with Shen Yizhi, she still didn't want anyone from the Su family to die in the war.
Lu Yan was silent for a long time, still a little hesitant, he looked up at Su Man, but saw that the girl's eyes were full of determination, as if this matter was imperative.
He clenched his fingers, sighed lightly, and said as if helpless and compromised: "There are too many involved in this matter, we can't decide so rashly, take me to meet Shen Yizhi in person for a while, and then give you an answer, okay?" ”
Su Man seemed to have heard some joke, leaned forward slightly, and moved closer to Lu Yan, and his voice was softer: "Brother, I think you have made a mistake, I am not asking for your consent to tell you this, but," Although she had a smile on her face, there was no smile in her eyes, "I have already decided." ”
Lu Yan really felt a little surprised, he was stunned at first, and then frowned tightly: "Nonsense, how can such a big thing be decided by a girl in your inner house!" ”
Su Man sneered twice, as if he had heard some joke. She leaned back, leaned lazily on the pillow behind her, and her voice was also a little lazy: "Brother has thought too much, and grandmother has agreed to this matter." ”
Lu Yan was still resolute: "I'll go and say on the old lady's side, you just have to stay in the mansion obediently now, and it's not your turn to worry about these messy things." ”
Su Man laughed again, with obvious sarcasm in his laughter: "Lu Yan, are you taking yourself too seriously?" ”
Su Man's words were unceremoniously, and it could even be said to be a little hurtful.
So when Lu Yan heard this, he was stunned again, but it was only a moment's work, and he reined in his expression again, as if he didn't hear Su Man's words, and said stubbornly: "No matter what you say, this matter is not something that you can decide if you say it, not to mention me, even my uncle who is far away at the border will not condone you to make such nonsense." ”
Thinking of Su Zhen, who was far away in Liaodong, the expression on Su Man's face that seemed to be smiling was finally put away. ok essay network
She was silent for a long time, and then she murmured in a low voice, as if talking to herself, "Father will surely understand my suffering." ”
"I also understand what you mean, now the Su family is like fish on a knife, and they have to live carefully," Lu Yan said in a low voice and gently persuaded, "But what kind of person Shen Yi knows, will he definitely be better than those few?" ”
Su Man shook his head, and it took a long time to raise his head and look at Lu Yan.
I saw that her eyes were red, and the smile on Fang Cai's face disappeared, and her face was full of indescribable despair.
Lu Yan was taken aback by her expression, and subconsciously wanted to reach out and touch her cheek.
Su Man raised the corners of his lips slightly, leaned back slightly, and avoided Lu Yan's touch.
"I can't guarantee that he's better than the others, but is that why we're holding back? Back then, we got to where we are today because we didn't have a choice. As she spoke, the smile on her face deepened a little, as if she had a deep mockery, "Regarding the matter of Liaodong, brother, you have also found some clues." ”
Lu Yan was really stunned this time, about the matter of Liaodong, this is a secret that the Su family has always kept strictly.
But it is really because of this secret that the Su family has come to this point today and suffered from the suspicion of the current emperor.
After many inquiries, Lu Yan found clues from some details, and had some guesses about the affairs of Liaodong back then.
It was precisely because of these speculations that he had to think carefully about how to get the Su family out of the current predicament.
He didn't know how many people knew about the affairs of Liaodong back then, but there was no doubt that since he could guess some, there would be others who could speculate a thing or two.
Lu Yan didn't dare to imagine what kind of situation the Su family would end up in if the people in the court knew about Liaodong and learned that the Su family had supported such a faint monarch to ascend to the throne.
But no matter what, it was indeed the Su family who made the wrong choice at the beginning.
According to Su Man's meaning, now to help Shen Yizhi, if he can help him return to his original position, the Su family can be regarded as setting things right, and the merits and demerits will be offset.
But is it really that simple?
Thinking of this, Lu Yan persuaded again in a gentle voice: "Manman, this matter is not as simple as you think, first of all, this Shen Yizhi's identity is not corroborated, even if there is evidence to prove that he is the widow of the abolished prince, how can the crime of the abolished prince be cleared, and how can he return to his original position justifiably?" ”
Su Man knew that this matter was not simple, and he also knew that he might just be impulsive.
But she can't let the Su family continue to live like this, she can live this kind of pretending to be decadent and incompetent, but the real Su family can't live it.
Therefore, she gritted her teeth, raised her head and pulled out a smile at Lu Yan: "There is no road in this world, but we stepped out step by step." ”
