Chapter 8: The Queen's Intentions
She seized this opportunity to ask the emperor to abolish the prince, but she didn't expect the emperor to just say to her lightly: "The prince is already fourteen years old, and at the age of his blood, he should also choose a few concubines for him, so as to save him a bigger trouble." "The emperor talked about the concubines of the three princes again, why did he favor one over the other, the prince was just a concubine, what was there to make a fuss, she was so angry that she stroked her sleeves and left.
But today came the opportunity.
The prince is bold and plays with a woman again, this woman is not someone else, but Lu Xiang's daughter. dared to move Lu Shuangshuang, misbehaved, and evil was unreasonable, it was a good opportunity for the emperor to abolish the crown prince and replace it with the crown prince.
Lu Shuangshuang's reluctance to marry the prince just now is falling into her trap.
"Marry? Didn't she just refuse? Empress Xiao sneered.
"Both are young and ignorant. It's not like she really doesn't want to get married. Princess Yunxiu hurriedly reached out to pull Lu Shuangshuang's hand, and her eyes motioned for Shuangshuang to speak.
However, Lu Shuangshuang's face was full of panic, and he was afraid that he was frightened by Queen Xiao's words and momentum just now.
Seeing that Shuangshuang's reaction was sluggish, Empress Xiao suddenly changed her tone to gentleness, and said softly to Shuangshuang: "Come, Shuangshuang, don't be afraid." Tell me, don't you want to marry the prince? ”
Lu Shuangshuang raised his head and said timidly: "I met the prince because I got lost because of sleepwalking, and the prince and I didn't ..........."
Empress Xiao seemed impatient, interrupted her words, and said solemnly: "You are wearing a single coat and wearing the prince's robe and sent back to the palace by his personal eunuch, this is a fact, it is useless for you to defend the prince." No one will believe you today. But, you have a choice, you only answer whether you want to marry him or not. ”
Lu Shuangshuang shook his head desperately, meaning that they didn't have anything unclear, and was about to open her mouth to defend herself, when Empress Xiao interrupted her again.
"You don't want to get married, it's good, a daughter of everyone has to have backbone! What's more, the prince is provoking the palace and insulting the people of the palace by doing this. This palace will seek justice for you now. "Queen Xiao's words are so domineering.
No matter how important Lu Shuangshuang is in the Lu family, what is she doing? After all, she still thinks about the Lu family. But Lu Shuangshuang didn't know what to do, and rejected the prince and her kindness. What's more, how could she let Lu Shuangshuang really marry the prince? She didn't plan to increase the crown prince's momentum. Since he is still a fledgling, he should break his wings as soon as possible, so that he will not be able to fly.
"Queen Mother!" Princess Yunxiu only understood at this time what her mother was doing: sacrificing Lu Shuangshuang's reputation and the rest of her life, just to pull the crown prince off the throne. She couldn't believe that her mother was completely concerned about her situation, and looked at Empress Xiao with a frightened expression.
Empress Xiao's cold eyes swept over Princess Yunxiu and Lu Shuangshuang.
"Yunxiu, let's live in the palace for the time being. I'm afraid that there will be a lot of eyes and ears, and there will be danger for both of them at that time. After this is over, send Shuangshuang back. Empress Xiao commanded coldly again.
Princess Yunxiu was spread on the ground all of a sudden, and the queen mother said so, making it clear that she wanted to put Shuangshuang under house arrest.
She knew that the queen mother was thoughtful, but she didn't expect it to be more terrifying than she imagined. If Shuangshuang really stays in the palace, something will really happen. The person who will kill Shuangshuang will not be the crown prince, but his own mother.
There is no proof of death, and it is useless for the prince to quibble. When the time comes, the Lu family and the prince will have an erection, so what will happen to her when she brings both of them into the palace?
