Chapter 22: Collusion
Lu Ruoqing nodded, "Well, I don't want to." ”
"Ruoqing!" Gu's eyes widened and he looked at his daughter incredulously.
"How do you know His Royal Highness King Huan, and how His Royal Highness King Huan asked you to go to the Zhuangyuan Building, my mother can not care. However, since His Royal Highness King Huan has taken a fancy to you, how can you refuse?! ”
Lu Ruoqing spread her hands and said: "That's why I said, find a way to make him retreat." ”
"Why?" Gu still didn't understand, "Not to mention His Royal Highness King Huan's noble status, just talk about his talent, and I heard that his face is also extremely handsome, and he is young, and he still likes you, why don't you want to." ”
"Qi Da is not a coincidence." Lu Ruoqing couldn't tell the real reason.
"How can you say that?" Gu shook his head again and again, "My mother has always been worried about your marriage, and now, with such a good candidate as His Royal Highness King Huan, why do you still refuse?" ”
Lu Ruoqing was slightly irritable in her heart, and said impatiently: "The side concubine is just a concubine." ”
"How can that be the same?" Gu disagreed, "If it is an ordinary family's concubine, naturally it will not work." However, the royal concubine is going to be on the jade, which is not the same at all. ”
Lu Ruoqing didn't want to argue with her mother, so she was silent.
Gu Shi said again: "Ruoqing, of course my mother understands that the side concubine is not as decent as the main concubine." ”
She let out a long sigh, "But according to the Lu family's family background, it is impossible for you to be Princess Huan." Besides, my mother is more worried that your refusal will offend King Huan and cause trouble for you! ”
Lu Ruoqing still insisted, "Don't worry, I won't refuse directly." ”
"You're really not impressed at all?" Gu really didn't understand his daughter's resistance and found it difficult to understand.
"Even if you think that the side concubine is a concubine, the side concubine of His Royal Highness King Huan is not comparable to the side concubine of an ordinary prince."
She lowered her voice, "It is said that His Royal Highness King Huan is going to be the crown prince." ”
Lu Ruoqing understood what her mother meant.
If King Huan becomes the crown prince, he will ascend the throne and become the emperor in the future.
Then his side concubine will be made a concubine, and the prince he gives birth to may also take the throne.
Naturally, it is a road of wealth and glory.
Lu Ruoqing thought about it.
She can't say the hatred of her previous life, and she can't convince her mother.
In this case, why quarrel with your mother for the position of a non-existent side concubine?
Therefore, he pretended to be moved, and hesitated: "If you ......, according to what my mother said, it's not impossible." ”
Gu Shi breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, this may be your good marriage." ”
What a fart! The anger in Lu Ruoqing's heart came out again.
She took a deep breath and tried to smile, "Mother, it's too early to say this. Perhaps, His Royal Highness King Huan is just a moment of smoothness and a few sweet words to coax me to play? Let's not talk about that. ”
A flash of disappointment flashed in Gu's eyes, "His Royal Highness King Huan said that you should be a side concubine, not serious enough?" ”
Lu Ruoqing chuckled, "Who knows?" I can't say anything about that. ”
Speaking of King Huan, there has always been a mystery in her heart.
Why did King Huan in his previous life override public opinion, and would rather contradict Concubine Su Shu and let her be his wife, Princess Huan, but in this life, he was only willing to let her be a side concubine? Why exactly?
It stands to reason that a person's personality cannot change abruptly.
According to this inference, King Huan in the previous life originally just wanted her to be a side concubine, she was beautiful and talented, but her family background was not prominent, which is also reasonable.
Then very suddenly, King Huan and Concubine Su had a big quarrel, insisted on making her the princess, and found the emperor to agree to canonization.
What was the reason for King Huan to suddenly make such a decision?
When you think about it, there were no special events back then.
Lu Ruoqing felt confused.
.
At this moment, King Huan received her ancient paintings and letters, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Ancient paintings are rare or secondary, and what is even more rare is that Lu Ruoqing must have had him in her heart early on, so she will find ancient paintings before.
This makes him proud, confident, and very happy.
For men, it is also a matter of pride to be loved by a beautiful woman who has captivated the country and the city.
And Lu Ruoqing's letter is even more interesting.
She said in the letter that she was embarrassed when she went home and met her sister Lu Zheng'er.
not only pushed her down and was injured, but also did not give up, not to say that she went to the champion building to meet men privately, and spread rumors everywhere to ruin her reputation.
Therefore, I hope that he will go to Lu's house on the grounds of thanking the ancient painting to relieve her predicament.
Hehe, this woman ...... learned to use his power.
King Huan couldn't help but slightly curl the corners of his mouth.
And what surprised him the most was that Lu Ruoqing specially told him to wear regular clothes, find an opportunity to let Lu Zhenger get into trouble, and then treat Lu Zhenger for the crime of offending the prince.
He has seen a lot of scheming women, and it is the first time he has encountered such an undisguised one.
King Huan felt that this was Lu Ruoqing's honesty to her.
What he didn't know was that Lu Ruoqing deliberately didn't hide it in front of him, just to disgust him, think she was vicious, and dispel the idea of accepting her as a side concubine.
However, Lu Ruoqing also miscalculated.
The taste of Huan Wang is different.
He doesn't like simple and brainless women, he has the throne in mind, but he is even more brainy and calculating, so he can help him in the future!
Therefore, his interest in Lu Ruoqing became even stronger.
"Go out and get ready." King Huan commanded.
According to Lu Ruoqing's advice, he deliberately changed into a low-key homely casual clothes, even the jade pendant on his waist, the wrench on his hand, and everything that was valuable was removed.
But even so, it can't hide his abundance and handsomeness.
He came all the way to Lu Mansion in a carriage.
Coincidentally, the guys from the Zhuangyuan Building were also called to the Lu Mansion and arrived just one step ahead.
King Huan revealed his identity at the door, and did not allow the people at the door to go in to report, and entered the courtyard unimpeded.
As soon as I arrived in the inner courtyard, I heard a commotion inside.
"How? Nothing to say, right? A snarky girl's voice rang out.
It's not Lu Ruoqing, it's probably Lu Zheng'er.
The girl's tone was sarcastic, "Now that the witnesses are here, how can you quibble?" ”
Lu Ruoqing did not answer.
"Talk?" Lu Zheng'er is fierce and keeps threatening.
"Yes."
Another young woman helped, "Ruoqing, do you think you can avoid the past by keeping your mouth shut?" Your inappropriate behavior, even if you don't admit it, you don't want to be fooled! ”
Lu Ruoqing still didn't say anything.
"Ruoqing, what the hell is going on?"
An old voice sounded, sounding very old, it should be Lu Ruoqing's grandmother Yun Taijun.
Yun Taijun said: "Yesterday, you kept saying that Zheng'er slandered you, and now it seems that you are lying." ”
Lu Ruoqing finally spoke up and replied, "That's right, I did lie about this." ”
"Ahh I knew it! Lu Zheng'er shouted.
"You admit you lied?" Yun Taijun asked in a deep voice.
"I have a last resort." Lu Ruoqing replied.
"Bitter? Haha......"
Lu Zheng'er seemed to have heard a big joke and laughed loudly, "Do you still have trouble meeting men privately?" It's the spring heart thumping, and the unspeakable bitterness. ”
"It's not." Lu Ruoqing denied it, and then explained, "That son's identity is special and he doesn't want me to reveal it, so I didn't tell the truth about this matter." ”
She avoided the important and light, and did not reveal the identity of King Huan horizontally and vertically.
But how did Lu Zhenger know the inside story?
thought that Lu Ruoqing was all an excuse, and became more and more proud.
Immediately exclaimed: "Grandmother! Now that the witness is there, and my sister herself has admitted to having a private meeting with a man, then it proves that all this is her fault! ”
"She has ruined the Lu family's style by doing this, and she must be severely punished, and she should be sent to the ancestral hall to kneel for three days and three nights!"
King Huan took a step forward, approaching the flower window, and his gaze was projected.
I saw Lu Ruoqing wearing a white silk robe, her shoulders were stained with blood, and her face looked even more pale and haggard without fat powder.
Especially a pair of eyes, black and moist, as if tears may be in the eyelashes at any time.
---- what a pity for me.
And opposite her, Lu Zheng'er was wearing a peach-colored shirt, with willow eyebrows upside down and apricot eyes, looking like a shrew!
The contrast is too stark.
King Huan couldn't help laughing, "Sneer......"
"Who? Who's snickering? ”
Lu Zheng'er turned her head to look at a man standing behind the flower window, and couldn't help but be surprised, "Who is sneaky?" Get out! ”
Yun Taijun and Yun Lu's faces also changed.
In the blue sky and daylight, a strange man broke into Lu's house? Impossible.
Even Gu Shi was a little worried, and shouted tentatively: "Mu Bai, are you back?" ”
Huan Wang Shi Shiran walked into the courtyard.
According to Lu Ruoqing's request, he deliberately wore a low-key dark blue robe, with no lines on his face and no decorations on his body.
But as soon as he appeared, he was stunned!
King Huan's face is as white as jade, his eyebrows and eyes are merry, and the corners of his mouth are slightly upturned as if he is in love.
The bearing like a high mountain green pine, the charm of lonely green bamboo, and the natural grace and luxury are enough to pour out the hearts of women all over the world.
Don't say that Lu Zhenger looks like a nymphomaniac.
A hint of surprise also flashed in the eyes of Yun Lu and Gu.
Even Yun Taijun couldn't help but take a few more glances, before he frowned and said, "Who are you, this son?" How can you casually break into the Lu Mansion, this is not in accordance with the rules. ”
King Huan smiled silently.
"You ......, who are you?"
Lu Zheng'er's previous anger disappeared instantly, and her brain seemed to stop spinning.
She looked at King Huan with eyes.
"This son, what are you doing at our house? Is there something wrong? ”
The young man in the Zhuangyuan Building's eyes lit up and exclaimed, "Ah! That's him! ”
"Him?" Lu Zheng'er hasn't understood yet.
The young man hurriedly said: "It's this son, I made an appointment with the eldest lady of the Lu family in the Zhuangyuan Building yesterday!" ”
Then he slapped his thigh, "That ......, I have already recognized the horizontal and vertical person, what do you have to do with yourself, I will leave first." ”
After saying that, he slipped away in a hurry.
The people in the courtyard were stunned.
Lu Zheng'er's eyes were extremely complicated.
looked at King Huan, then at Lu Ruoqing, and asked jealously: "Yesterday, you made an appointment with this son?" It's really him! ”
Lu Ruoqing smiled and said, "It's him." ”
Lu Zheng'er was about to get angry with jealousy, gritted her teeth and said, "Very good!" You've finally admitted it! ”
