The fourth prince avoided Concubine De's gaze and slowly lowered his head.

Concubine De scolded in her heart, a son without conscience!

She admitted that she was partial to the Eighth Prince, but she never thought that the Fourth Prince would expose her shortcomings in front of Emperor Longqing.

Is it so easy to raise a prince in the harem?

No matter how eccentric she was, she protected the four princes and grew up smoothly.

"Concubine De, you don't have to be sad." The Queen Mother held Concubine De's hand and patted it gently: "There is a mourning family, no one can wronged you!" After so many years, some people still say that you killed the fourth son-in-law? ”

"Mother's ......"

Concubine De whimpered and wept.

"The minister meets the Queen Mother."

Lu Zheng saw the Queen Mother and Concubine De enter the door directly, helped Gu Siye to flash to the side, and saluted.

Gu Siye also saluted meticulously.

The Queen Mother was already full of anger, but after seeing Lu Zheng, her heart became more and more angry.

She couldn't figure out that Emperor Longqing had to leave Lu Zheng alone, and he still pampered and maintained Lu Zheng in every way.

In the past, she was out of sight, and the emperor was spoiled if he wanted to, but Lu Zheng's existence has affected the Jiangshan Sheji and the major affairs of Lichu!

There are even rumors that Emperor Longqing plans to record Lu Zheng in the name of the harem concubine and canonize him as the crown prince!

The Queen Mother will never be able to bear a sin and become a prince, no matter how good Lu Zheng is.

In her eyes, the rest of the princes are all better than Lu Zheng, Lu Zheng's surname is Lu, even if it is the emperor's flesh and blood, how can she see someone related to Queen Lu become the crown prince?

Even because of Lu Zheng, Gu Zhan, who the Queen Mother originally liked, didn't look pleasing to the eye.

The Queen Mother stopped in front of Lu Zheng and looked down at the beautiful young man who was kneeling on the ground.

"Lu Zheng."

"The minister is here."

Compared with the Queen Mother's face, Lu Zheng was as calm as ever, although he was kneeling, his momentum was not weak.

"Do you remember what the mourning family said to you when you entered the palace?"

"I can't forget it for the rest of my life."

Lu Zheng replied calmly: "Don't be delusional, don't have extravagant hopes, remember your identity, and don't live up to the loyalty of the Lu family of Zhenguo for generations." ”

The Queen Mother's eyes were complicated, "Now the mourning family will teach you the last one, if there is a mourning family for one day, you will be in the Lu family for one day, and the mourning family will never allow the emperor to be criticized by future generations!" ”

Emperor Longqing's brows furrowed in displeasure.

"Hou Ye Lu was only five years old when he entered the palace that day." Gu Siye suddenly interjected, and suddenly realized: "It turns out that Hou Ye Lu has already seen the Queen Mother look at him differently at such a young age. ”

"Hou Ye Lu is not crooked, his talents are outstanding, his achievements are impressive, you are really amazing, he has lived up to your expectations."

Queen Mother: "......"

Emperor Longqing was not in a hurry, he loosened his brows, and quietly watched Gu Zhan stir up the armrest of the chair.

"Gu Zhan, what do you know? When did the mourning family place their hopes on Lu Zheng? ”

“…… Isn't it? Gu Siye blinked frequently, "The minister is blind, but his ears are not deaf, although the minister's literary style is not outstanding, the minister is the first in the second class of the current department, and he will not be so stupid that he can't even understand people's words." ”

Gu Siye showed off his imperial examination results when he had nothing to do, showing off his imperial examination results from outside the palace, who was saying that he had no ink on his chest, and he threw those people with a face of imperial examination transcripts.

The Queen Mother paused, "How can this be reasonable, you dare to say that the mourning family is not human?" ”

"No, no, the minister is wronged, the minister is innocent."

Gu Siye's face turned pale with fright, "Niangniang has to believe the minister, the minister has never said that you are not human!" Your Majesty, you help the minister explain to Niangniang that the minister is really wronged. ”

Emperor Longqing: "......"

Emperor Longqing didn't want to take this pot, because he couldn't figure out Gu Zhan's next intention.

It has always been Lord He and his courtiers who carried the black pot for him.

"I also want to hear why Gu Zhan said that the Queen Mother has expectations for Zheng'er."

Emperor Longqing accentuated his tone on Zheng'er, Concubine De pursed the corners of her mouth, it still doesn't work, the eighth prince is favored again, and he is not as good as Lu Zheng!

The Queen Mother is also heartbroken, Emperor Longqing is her own child, and their mother and son have also survived difficult times together in the harem of the first emperor.

Emperor Longqing was filial to her in terms of food, clothing and housing.

But the places where she can influence Emperor Longqing are very limited, especially on Lu Zheng, if Emperor Longqing is willing to listen to her, Lu Zheng will not even have a chance to be born!

There will be no such thing as today's scenery.

Emperor Longqing still protected Lu Zheng.

Gu Siye said: "Isn't Fang Cainiang's words just that I hope that Marquis Lu will inherit the fierce loyalty of the Duke of Zhenguo, expand the territory, and realize Taizu's last wish to recover Liaodong outside the Guanwai?" ”

What kind of divine unfolding is this?

"Niangniang handed over the emperor's posthumous name to Lu Hou Ye, and she attached too much importance to Lu Hou Ye."

Gu Siye pretended to sigh, "The minister has a suggestion, it's best not to say these words again in the future, after all, you still have princes and grandsons under your knees, and you can't be too partial to Marquis Lu as a grandmother." ”

“……”

"The minister doesn't know why Niangniang values Marquis Lu so much, and the minister doesn't dare to ask."

Gu Siye cleared his throat, "You will be a little more kind to Hou Ye Lu in the future, and be a little less strict, so that Hou Ye Lu will not misunderstand you." The courtiers often said that the courtiers would not communicate with their children, and they were obviously kind to their children, but because they were too strict, they misunderstood. ”

"I can't bear to see your kindness misunderstood by Lord Lu, so I risked my life to suggest to you, if there is something incomplete, don't be surprised."

"Lu Hou Ye is not surprised, is he surprised? Niangniang actually loves you very specially. ”

The Queen Mother's lips were purple, and her chest was so tight that she could barely breathe, how could she already think that Gu Zhan was a good person?

Gu Zhan is here to be angry with her!

"Don't disturb Your Majesty, get together with Niangniang, mother and son."

Gu Siye grabbed Lu Zheng and got up from the ground, Gu Siye's fan knocked on his shoulder, "Let's go, let's go." ”

The corners of Lu Zheng's mouth were slightly hooked.

"His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince is still kneeling outside?"

Gu Siye asked softly, Lu Zheng glanced at the fourth prince and said softly, "Don't be nosy." ”

"How can it be idle to be loyal to His Majesty? Lu Houye's consciousness can't catch up with the master. The heavenly family is harmonious, the father is kind and the son is filial, and the world can be peaceful. ”

Gu Siye turned back to Emperor Longqing, his eyes were as pure as if he had never been blind, "Punishment is in the child's body, the pain is in the mother's heart, Concubine De Niangniang loves His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, knowing that she can't intercede for His Royal Highness, so he invited the Queen Mother, hey, the love of the biological mother in the world for her children is the same." ”

Concubine De: "......"

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the Fourth Highness is also filial to Concubine De, so let His Highness get up, kneel down to His Royal Highness, not to mention Concubine De, you are also distressed."

Emperor Longqing seemed to be smiling, "Okay, with Gu Zhan's words, I spared the fourth child!" ”

"Concubine De."

"The concubine is here."

Concubine De knelt down.

"I will reward your mother and son with a table of royal banquet, and your mother and son will talk well and resolve the misunderstanding as soon as possible."
