Chapter 35: The Lan Family's Reaction
"Thank you, Your Highness." Mrs. Lan bowed and thanked her, "Please also ask Your Highness to tell the emperor that our small family in the Marquis of Jingyuan Mansion can't afford to climb the county lord, and I hope the emperor will not marry the county lord to the dog." β
"Don't worry, how could this palace let such a scourge enter the door of his own family!" Especially this in-laws can help their son.
The eldest princess left the Lan Mansion with a straight face and a group of elders of the Marquis of Jinchang, and when she arrived outside the mansion gate, she separated from a few women, turned the carriage and entered the palace.
The eldest princess is not an ordinary woman, Lan Xiaoyou can see the emperor's plan, how can she not see it? The King of Heyang and the Marquis of Jingyuan's Mansion are both sides, and she naturally chooses her own in-laws. After all, the two mansions are still in the "honeymoon period", and when Lan Xiaoyu dies, she will put the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion on the list of using it while guarding against it.
Today's emperor is only about fifty years old, and in ancient times he could call himself an old man, but in modern times he is still in the prime of life, especially the emperor is well maintained, and he looks like he is in his early forties. This emperor is not a very capable emperor, but he is definitely not a faint monarch, he has been on the throne for more than 20 years, and there are no brilliant achievements, but he also governs the country smoothly and steadily, just like his ancestors.
"Imperial Brotherβ" The eldest princess entered the imperial study with an angry look, "You have to be the master of your courtiers." β
"Oh? What's going on? Who bullied you? The emperor raised his eyebrows, he didn't look at the eldest princess in his eyes like Emperor Kunxi, and he didn't know the true face of the eldest princess.
"Lord Jiayi." The eldest princess said.
"It turned out to be her, why did she provoke you?" The emperor asked casually, the emperor also didn't like the lord of Jiayi very much, so he used her as a pawn to deal with the Heyang Palace, but he didn't know if he could also get the Jingyuan Mansion into it.
In the emperor's generation, the eldest princess is the smartest, so smart that she will hide it since she was a child, so smart that she can see what the emperor thinks at a glance, and she knows how to talk to the emperor.
"She, she said that her sister is just a princess, she has no power or power, even if she is a royal family, she is not respected by the county lord." The eldest princess paid attention to the emperor's expression as she spoke, "The county lord of Jiayi also said that she has the queen's support behind her, even if you are the imperial brother, you can't control her." said that the imperial brother, you can ascend to the throne all thanks to the queen and the Heyang Palace, and said......"
"What else?" The Emperor's face was dark.
The eldest princess said hatefully: "She also said that in this country, the status of the queen ranks first, the eldest prince is second, and she is the third, and even the royal brother has to bow behind her." β
"How can it be!" The emperor waved his hand and smashed the inkstone on the imperial case, and the inkstone worth thousands of gold was smashed to pieces, "Okay, a good queen, a good Heyang Palace, a good Jiayi county lord......"
The eldest princess curled her lips slightly, very good, the emperor's anger has been provoked, and there is only one fuse missing. I believe that the Lan family will be happy to do this fuse.
Then pull his gaze back to the Lan family. After sending off the eldest princess and the elders of the Marquis of Jinchang, Mrs. Lan immediately asked people to call Marquis Lan and the brothers of the Lan family. Lan Xiaoyou and Qingyun helped Mrs. Lan to sit on the couch, and Li served a cup of hot tea.
"Mother, it's not worth it to be angry with that kind of person after drinking a cup of tea." Lee persuaded Lady Lan.
Lan Xiaoyou followed: "Mother, our Jingyuan Marquis Mansion is not easy to bully, don't worry, your father and eldest brother will definitely help you out of this breath." β
Madam Lan frowned: "That Jiayi County Lord has the support of the queen, but I'm afraid that this breath will not come out." β
Lan Xiaoyou smiled: "Mother, the relationship between the queen and the emperor is not very good, the emperor has long been dissatisfied with the queen and the Heyang Palace." β
"Even if you are dissatisfied, the emperor will not abolish the queen, right? At most, he reprimanded the county lord of Jiayi and revoked her title. Madame Lan felt that this was too light.
Lan Xiaoyou said: "I think, this time, the emperor will not spare the county lord of Jiayi." β
"That's what the third sister said." Brother Lan, Marquis Lan and Lan Xiaoqin walked in, Brother Lan said, "I have discussed with my father, the emperor will definitely not allow the marriage of two families who are in charge of the military power, and he said before that he would marry the lord of Jiayi and the second brother, ostensibly to warn the eldest prince and the second prince, but in fact, it is to make our Jingyuan Marquis Mansion and Heyang Wangfu quarrel, and deal with Heyang Wangfu through our Jingyuan Marquis Mansion." Our Jingyuan Marquis Mansion has become the emperor's knife against the Heyang Palace. β
The three of them entered the room, each found their own place and sat down, and the maids quickly served hot tea with their hands and feet.
Madam Lan and the other three sat down, and Fang said, "Are we really going to be the emperor's knife to deal with the Heyang Palace?" β
Marquis Lan: "If you don't do it, you can't do it, the emperor has long been designing our Jingyuan Marquis Mansion." β
Lan Xiaoqin snorted: "I'm afraid that the Heyang Palace's Mansion will fall, and the emperor's next target is our Jingyuan Marquis Mansion." β
Madame Lan was worried: "Huh? So what to do? β
Lan Xiaoqin said: "It's best for the emperor to abdicate quickly and give up the throne to the third prince." β
"Shut up." The eldest brother of the Lan family scolded Lan Xiaoqin, "Is this kind of nonsense to say?" If it spreads, our entire Hou Mansion will be affected by you. β
"Aren't they all my own?" Lan Xiaoqin said indifferently. When the three eldest brothers of the Lan family entered the house, Lan Xiaoyou drove out all the subordinates and asked Lu Xiu to guard the door. There were only a few people from the Lan family in the house.
"If you want me to say, the third prince will hurry up to the throne and marry the third sister, so that our Lan family will be more secure."
"It's easy to say, the emperor is now in the prime of life and in good health, how can he abdicate." The eldest brother of the Lan family sighed.
Lan Xiaoqin snorted twice and whispered: "If anyone poisons the emperor, let alone poison the emperor, let his body be corrupted, won't the third prince be able to ascend the throne?" β
"Shut up." Lan Hou Ye and the eldest brother of the Lan family scolded at the same time.
"Don't say anything like that again." Lan Hou Ye said sharply.
"Oh~" Lan Xiaoqin flattened his mouth and lowered his shoulders.
Lan Xiaoyou's eyes flashed, her second brother's wish would come true, wasn't the emperor in his previous life just poisoned and stimulated to die? Otherwise, how could Huang Furui ascend to the throne so quickly.
"Since the emperor chose us to make this knife, we will make the knife." Lan Hou Ye said, "Tomorrow morning, I will be able to fold a bullet to impeach the daughter of the king of Heyang." β
The eldest brother of the Lan family said: "I will also go to the fold and directly impeach the county lord of Jiayi to make my mother angry." β
Mrs. Lan was relieved when she heard this, she was worthy of being her own son, so filial!
Marquis Lan commanded with a calm face: "After this incident, you should be cautious in your life and work, be low-key, don't cause trouble like the county lord of Jiayi and bring disaster to your family." β
