Chapter 120: The Human Heart Is Unpredictable
It's one thing to know, but Chen Qingxuan couldn't figure it out, why did Concubine Qin Xian do this? The reason? Competing for favor? If she was targeting a concubine like her, who was deeply favored, it would be fine, but it was obvious - she was not.
"What is her purpose?" Chen Qingxuan asked in a low voice.
"I don't know" Lu Yuan shook his head and said, "So, I can't figure it out."
"Okay, I know about this matter, but it's hard for you" Chen Qingxuan sighed and asked, "I have my own opinions about the cold and cracked matter, now let's talk about your matter first."
"What is there to say about lowly office?" Lu Yuan sneered, although Chen Qingxuan didn't pick it out, but he was not stupid after all, he still guessed it somewhat, Chen Qingxuan proposed to come to him at this time, naturally because of Zhang Linlin, Zhang Linlin is good, but when she meets them, the eldest lady, she can only eat deflated.
"Do you want that kid?" Chen Qingxuan's voice was a little cold, Lu Yuan was really messing around, if he liked Zhang Linlin, just do it, 'get' someone's life, she also said that it was understandable, but in the current situation, this child is very important, 'getting' is not good, this child is the future emperor's eldest son.
Moreover, because the Zhang family is the prime minister of the dynasty, as long as this child is born, Zhang Quanheng's old fox will support Yang Xi with an iron heart, and at the same time, he will also try to put this child on the throne of the prince.
But Yang Xi is not a fool, he knows that this child is not his, how can he give in? It's one thing to be able to tolerate Zhang Linlin's infidelity, but if it is for the sake of the future that the country and the society will not be left behind, Yang Xi is also possible to get rid of her before the child is born.
In this harem, if you want to make a concubine have an accidental miscarriage, it is easy to get tight.
"I ......" Lu Yuan was also a celestial and human 'battle' in his heart for a moment, and he hesitated and didn't know what to say.
"Okay, I'll ask another question" Chen Qingxuan sighed, frowned secretly, and asked, "What is going on with you and Zhang Linlin?" I mean, how did you 'got' her to 'bed'? β
This question was too straightforward, so Lu Yuan didn't answer for a long time.
"Even if she doesn't enter the palace, you don't want to marry her justifiably," Chen Qingxuan said in a low voice, "You know this better than me." β
"Yes, eldest miss" Lu Yuan sighed, "Eldest Miss, don't ask, she and that child, you look at it, it's good to be able to keep the child, but if you can't keep it, it's also a matter of no way, in fact-many people in the palace are currently staring at the child in her belly, if it weren't for the eldest lady's favored harem, which distracted the attention of many people, I'm afraid that someone would have wanted to start a long time ago." β
"You're wrong" Chen Qingxuan shook his head and said, "Even now, there are many people who want to start, that child, the stakes are very important, you should know - if it's not good, if this is a boy, he may be the crown prince in the future." β
Lu Yuan's heart was shocked, yes, if this child is the crown prince in the future, or even once he ascends the throne as the emperor, what is he? It's okay, it's not goodβthe first one to kill him in the future is this kid.
However, let him decide now whether he wants this child or not, Lu Yuan is really ruthless, after all, this is his flesh and bones, he knows in his heart that as long as he shakes his head today, this child will die for life, Chen Qingxuan will not do it, but what about others? As long as she turns a blind eye, there is no chance that this child will survive.
After thinking about it for a long time, Lu Yuan finally couldn't let go of that heart, and sighed: "Miss, can you wait for this child to be born before making a decision?" β
"Why?" Chen Qingxuan asked, "After you are born, it will be even more difficult for you to choose when you see this child." β
"If she is born as a 'girl' child, then let her stay in the palace and be her princess, if it is a boy - I will kill him myself" Lu Yuan said in a low voice.
Chen Qingxuan didn't speak for a long time, and she really responded to the pity of the world's parents: "It's not easy to keep this child born safely, so I'll do my best."
"Thank you, Miss" Lu Yuan knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily.
"You and I are both lifelong 'friends', don't say these words, if this child is surnamed Lu in the future, he will inherit the incense of my Lu family, you can get up" Chen Qingxuan said in a low voice.
"Yes," Lu Yuan got up.
"Tsukiko Haruka, how's it going?" Chen Qingxuan asked.
"Zhuzi Yao is already on his way back to Beijing, everything is going well, and in addition, according to the instructions of the eldest lady, we robbed the eldest son of the Gu family halfway and robbed him of a large amount of gold and silver in Jiangnan." Lu Yuan said busily.
"That money will be put in Hongtong Money Village first, and I will have another use," Chen Qingxuan said.
"Yes, it has been deposited into Hongtong Money Village according to your instructions, and the eldest lady can rest assured." Lu Yuan said with a smile, as long as he didn't mention Zhang Linlin and that child, he could face it calmly, after all, he was also accompanied by Chen Qingxuan at the beginning, and he was killed from the pile of dead people, he was used to killing, and his heart was also as cold as iron, what could move his heart?
Zhang Linlin tried in vain to use his beauty to manipulate him, if there was no Chen Qingxuan's appearance, Lu Yuan didn't care about being used by him, but since the old master was still alive, he naturally had no hesitation.
"What's going on with Lu Ye?" Chen Qingxuan asked, "Have you checked it out?" β
Lu Ye - is the current Ye Wu, 'mixed' in the Dragon Guard, Chen Qingxuan is not mistaken, he was used as a cover for her to flee and fell into the hands of officers and soldiers, originally, they all thought he was dead, but now, she actually appeared in the Dragon Guard, what happened in the past three years?
Even if it is a dead soldier of Lu 'Gate', she is also worried that these people will betray - the people are unpredictable
"He was originally in the hands of officers and soldiers, but he was robbed that night, and no one knows who did it," Lu Yuan said in a low voice.
"That's what he said" Chen Qingxuan nodded, the different version is that Lu Ye was seriously injured and caught by officers and soldiers, and the first emperor was still alive at the time, so naturally he couldn't tolerate him, but after all, this was the only way to live, the first emperor needed a military talisman, so he naturally had to find a breakthrough, so he was not killed at that time.
But at that time, Lu Yuan was not imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department, but in the prison of the Inner Library, in other words, in the Forbidden Palace - in this way, it is naturally more difficult to save Lu Ye.
Chen Qingxuan chose to give up at the beginning, filling too many people in, it was not worth it - and it may not be able to save him. Afterwards, the escape route they formulated earlier was not revealed, proving that Lu Ye did not betray and confess, so there is only one possibility - Lu Ye died in the forbidden palace.
Of course, if the first emperor didn't kill him, there was absolutely no reason to let him go, even if he was alive, he should be in the inner library prison, instead of 'mingling' in the dragon guard.
"Wait for Zhuzi Yao to come back" Chen Qingxuan closed his eyes and suddenly felt a little tired.
She didn't wonder if it would be Tsukiko Haruka's hand, after all, he was the commander of the Dragon Praetorian Guard, and it was easier than ordinary people to save someone in the Inner Vault Prison.
However, if Tsukiko Yao saved Lu Ye, why didn't he mention it when he saw her?
"Humble resignation" Lu Yuan bowed and saluted, his figure flashed, and he had disappeared into the room.
Chen Qingxuan got up by herself, poured a cup of tea, drank it slowly, and then sat on the head of the 'bed' with her knees crossed until dawn.
At dusk the next day, Chen Qingxuan had dinner, and Ming Yuehe took plums and bamboos to eat, and she flipped through two pages of the book under the lamp at random, and Lu Ye sneaked into her room quietly.
Chen Qingxuan was not surprised at all when he saw Lu Ye, after all, now that Lu Ye was in charge of the security of the Qinghe Palace, it was too easy for him to sneak into her room.
"What's the mystery of the Demon Lock Tower?" Chen Qingxuan asked, she ordered Lu Ye to find out the secret of the Lock Demon Tower, and now that he is back, he thinks he has gained something.
"Miss-" Lu Ye bowed and saluted, "The Seven Tricks of the Lock Demon Tower are exquisite, it is cast in glass, there are small holes on all sides, and there is a black lacquer bead placed in it, which is heavy, because the Lock Demon Tower cannot be opened, so I don't know what material the bead is and what it does, but one thing is certain, if you want the Lock Demon Tower to shine, you will inevitably need to use your hands and feet on the bead." β
Chen Qingxuan frowned slightly, in this way, the secret of the lock demon tower is bound to be in the hands of the Taixu Zhenren, and now, whoever is the demon will look at this bull-nosed old Taoist priest to see who is not pleasing to the eye.
"That bull-nosed boss is not a good match," Chen Qingxuan frowned, "Last time, he was asked to talk nonsense about a 'jade' beauty, but he didn't spend less money."
"This time it's not money that can buy it," Lu Ye said in a low voice.
"Who is the evil they have prescribed?" Chen Qingxuan asked, now, if Empress Dowager Li wants to make a demon inside, there are only two people who are the most suitable - she Chen Qingxuan and Zhang Linlin.
Zhang Linlin is pregnant with an imperial heir, which is definitely not what Empress Dowager Li wants to see, and she, Chen Qingxuan, is deeply favored by the Holy Grace, and getting rid of her can suppress Yang Xi, but this is what Empress Dowager Li is willing to see.
Similarly, if there is no lock demon tower, there is no demon statement, Empress Dowager Li is also wishful thinking, wanting to sow discord and let her get rid of Zhang Linlin, killing two birds with one stone.
"Miss, their target this time shouldn't be you," Lu Ye said in a low voice.
"Who is it?" Chen Qingxuan asked puzzled.
"Gu Guifei" Lu Ye frowned, he also felt a little unbelievable about this result.
"Is that her?" Chen Qingxuan was stunned, why would it be her?
"Li Keqi wants to enter the palace, and His Majesty will not agree to canonize the queen when she first enters the palace, that is to say, Li Keqi is bound to be under the rank of people when she enters the palace, this is something that the Li family is unwilling to accept, and the Li family also wants to take the opportunity to suppress the Zhang family, so the Empress Dowager Li is paving the way for Li Keqi." Lu Ye replied in a low voice.
"She wants to marry into the Yang family with the respect of a noble concubine?" Chen Qingxuan suddenly felt a little funny.
