Chapter 534: Helpless
Xue Lao gently placed the teacup on the coffee table next to him, with a look of helplessness and regret.
"As I said before, Li Chengde is a person who attaches great importance to his concubine, even if Li Chengxuan dies, he will never let Li Chengde have a bright future, and maybe he will blame Li Chengde's death on Li Chengde."
How is this possible, Li Chengde is also Prime Minister Li Cheng's own son no matter what.
How can anyone treat his son like this.
Lu Qingrong didn't believe it, but Xue Lao didn't look like he was joking, that is to say, Prime Minister Li Cheng really did this kind of thing.
Could it be that Li Chengde wants to live in the shadow of Li Chengxuan for the rest of his life? Is there no day in your life?
Originally, Lu Qingrong wanted to use Li Chengde, but at this time, he also sincerely wanted to help him get out of the sea of suffering.
If he can cooperate with her, then Li Chengde will also have a bright future, and she can also investigate whether Prime Minister Li Chengxiang is related to her parents' case.
It's a win-win situation, the best of both worlds.
Xue Lao looked at Lu Qingrong with a calculating look, and couldn't help but remind.
"Girl, Prime Minister Li is not as simple as you think, although the emperor has guarded against him all these years, but the major events in the court and politics are inseparable from him, if you want to get rid of him, it must be a big crime, and the evidence of the crime must be conclusive, a little carelessness will not only not cure Prime Minister Li Cheng, but will cause yourself to be killed."
What Xue Lao meant by his words, Lu Qingrong understood that if he wanted to convict Prime Minister Li, he needed to be cautious and cautious.
Li Chengxuan's death has made Prime Minister Li Cheng doubt himself, maybe he calculates himself behind his back, the current situation seems to be calm, but it is actually a calm storm that is coming.
Torrential rain can hit at any time.
Xue Lao knew that this granddaughter had always been smart and clever, and there were some things that he didn't need to say more, and she could figure it out.
But even so, he couldn't help but worry that Prime Minister Li Cheng was known as an old fox, who had been operating in the court for many years, and his weight in the emperor's heart was also very important, and it was a little difficult to bring him down just by relying on Lu Qingrong.
Besides, the relationship between Prime Minister Li Cheng and the crown prince!
Xue Lao knew about Lu Qingrong's cooperation with the prince, although Lu Qingrong didn't say it explicitly, but he had been an official in the court for so many years, and there were some things that he didn't need to say clearly.
He is already a person who is about to enter the earth, and he has no children or daughters in this life, and fame and fortune are all fleeting for him.
The only thing he can care about is this granddaughter.
"No matter what Prime Minister Li Cheng does, she is the father of the queen mother, and she is the grandfather of the prince, now that you are useful to the prince, the prince will naturally treat you as a guest, but once the prince sits in that position in the future, he will settle accounts after the autumn."
"What will you do to keep yourself then?"
"Grandpa, I won't joke about these things that I finally obtained, now I am not only the wife of the prince of the Xuanguo Mansion, but also Mrs. Rong, but the mother of Gillian and them, but the death of my father, I also want to investigate, this is not just my own business."
Once it is confirmed that the Li family and Beidi have a relationship, it is not her alone.
She admits that she is suspected of communiqué personal vendetta, but she is also sure that she will get out of it.
"That's it, you understand everything, I won't say much, I also have some kindness to Li Chengde, if you plan to start with him, I can write a letter, as for whether he will help you depends on your ability."
Lu Qingrong was ecstatic, she was not sure that with her grandfather's handwritten letter, I believe that Li Changde should choose her own.
Originally, she was only two or three percent sure, but now she has five or six percent.
Lu Qingrong returned to the Summer Palace with Xue Lao's handwritten letter, and before he could sit down and drink hot tea, he was pulled by Nie Jingshuang to try on clothes.
Seeing that this girl recovered, Lu Qingrong couldn't hit her.
In two days, it will be Gu Niangzi's lotus banquet, and the embroidery room has already made clothes for them.
He hadn't had time to try yet.
Lu Qingrong was pulled by Nie Jingshuang to dress up. , Looking at the pretty woman like a hibiscus in the mirror, Lu Qingrong also admired himself.
But then I felt that the decoration on my head was a little too heavy, and I was afraid that I would be tired and lie down after taking such a few steps with such a piece of jewelry.
Lu Qingrong raised his hand and was about to take off the golden step shake, but was held down by Nie Jingshuang, "Sister-in-law, don't pick it up, you look good with this golden step shake, you will take it over tomorrow, and it will definitely become a highlight at that time." ”
"I'm married! And even I have children, if I dress like this, I'm afraid that people will think I'm frivolous. ”
Although Lu Qingrong didn't like the woman's hair bun very much, after all, when she got married, she had to look like a woman, and if she dressed like a little maid, she would inevitably be laughed at, and it would also make people say that there were no rules in the Xuanguo Mansion.
Nie Jingshuang doesn't care about those, her sister-in-law looks good in everything, and the eldest brother must also hope that her sister-in-law can be beautiful.
But what my sister-in-law said was right, if my sister-in-law was dressed up too well, it would definitely attract the attention of those men, and it would be bad for them to snatch her sister-in-law away.
Thinking of this, Nie Jingshuang helped Lu Qingrong remove the golden step shake and the gold collar, but the other jewelry beads and velvet flowers on the top of his head were not removed.
"Sister-in-law, that's it, you are Mrs. Rong now, if you dress up too quietly, it will inevitably make people think that you despise you, and when the time comes, it will provoke unnecessary right and wrong, now this is just right, both gorgeous and generous, with your clothes are just right."
There is some truth in what she said, she is now Mrs. Rong after all!
I never thought it was so troublesome to be identical before, and even more so with so much jewelry.
The two were dressing each other, and suddenly they heard the sound of mournful music outside.
It should be that someone died in the nearby street, but there are all court officials in this neighborhood, who has a funeral, why don't they know?
As soon as Lu Qingrong heard this, he asked Mrs. Chen to investigate, and Mrs. Chen's feet were very fast, and she came back after a while.
"Miss, it's the waiter of the Ministry of Works, and Lord Chu's son has passed away."
The Xuanguo Mansion has nothing to do with Lord Chu.
But after all, it is also a neighbor, close to each other, since people have played mourning, it is reasonable to send someone to pay their respects.
"Mrs. Chen, go and give a gift, it's a little heart."
"Yes."
When he looked back, he found that Nie Jingshuang was like a wooden man, tilting his head and thinking.
Suddenly, he was so frightened that Lu Qingrong almost fell.
"Sister-in-law, I know."
"What do you know?" ”
"Sister-in-law, I just felt that this Lord Chu was a little familiar, and I thought about it for a long time before I remembered that Lord Chu had a woman who was the side concubine of the Fifth Prince, and she was very favored."
