Chapter 396: Don't dare to gamble

Emperor Zhao You strictly ordered the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and Yushitai to be tried, and the evidence about Lu Yong's crimes drifted from all directions like snowflakes, and these evidences were presented by Lu Yong's political enemies, opponents, and enemies, as well as those who were oppressed by the people and officials, and some of them took the initiative to confess for self-protection.

Moreover, the emperor even ordered Concubine De's son to be handed over to Concubine Yun to raise, because judging from the evidence currently available in the trial of the three divisions, even if Lu Yong's crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason is not established, the blood debt he has committed over the years is enough to cause disaster to the family, and the Lu family and Concubine De will not want to get up again this time.

Empress Wei also cleared her name of assassinating the prince because of Lu Yong's crime, and she was still in charge of the harem, and the first thing she did to get her innocence was to send Concubine De to the cold palace.

And Lin Shuran heard that after the Ma family in southern Xinjiang learned that Lu Yong had an accident in the capital, he immediately convened the clansmen to discuss and decided to remove all the women in the clan who were married to the Lu family from the family tree, so that even if Lu Yong was exterminated by the emperor, the Ma family would be able to keep their foundation.

It's just that this kind of means of protecting the clan by clan when encountering things is really despicable and chilling, which is the most despicable practice of the family of the world, and it is also a symptom that the clan cannot continue for a long time.

"What's so strange about this, there is no dirty thing in this world that the Ma family in southern Xinjiang can't do!" Chen Jiayu has changed her residence, and now she lives in a grange on the edge of the town, which is more secluded and undisturbed than the town, and it is also suitable for her to raise a baby here.

Early in the morning, Lin Shuran secretly came to see her again, Chen Jiayu also knew that she couldn't hide her pregnancy, and she didn't want to hide it, maybe she really couldn't cut off the relationship with everyone in her heart, she longed for home, longing for warmth, and longing for friends.

Looking at Chen Jiayu with a slightly convex lower abdomen and the warm and peaceful smile on her face, Lin Shuran can know how much she cares about and likes the child in her belly now, no matter who the child's father is, this will be her most important baby.

When the two chatted, Lin Shuran told her everything that happened in the capital recently, Chen Jiayu didn't feel any surprise after listening to it, especially after learning about the Ma family's practices in southern Xinjiang, in the land of Southern Xinjiang and Xishu, the Ma family's "reputation" of being unkind and unrighteous is known to many people, and they seem to be so selfish and ruthless by nature.

"The most pitiful thing is those Ma women, after they got married, the confidence in their husband's family was given by their mother's family, the only thing they can rely on in this world is their own family, it is not them who make mistakes, but in the end they are still implicated, and this is also something that cannot be helped!" Chen Jiayu had sympathy for those Ma women in her eyes, but she felt that she was no different from those Ma women, and the Dongling Chen family was also a big family, so didn't she also do a lot of chilling things!

Lin Shuran also sighed softly, this is the sorrow of ancient women, in this era of male superiority and inferiority of women, their status is so humble, they have been living by others all their lives, and there are not many women in the world who can be like Chen Jiayu "strong men", so I really admire her.

"Sister Jiayu, don't you really plan to let Wei Ying know that you are pregnant with his child? I think he is sincere to you, and you seem to have affection for him, in this case, why are you afraid of secular rumors, you must let this child be born with his father and mother by his side! Lin Shuran never couldn't bear Chen Jiayu to take the eldest child alone, and the two of them, who were obviously affectionate to each other, were they really going to give up because of the difficulties ahead?

Chen Jiayu lowered her eyes, gently stroked her lower abdomen with both hands, a smile rose at the corner of her mouth, she raised her head again with a soft face and looked at Lin Shuran and said: "Sister Shuran, I know what you think in your heart, but I only hope that this child can grow up safely and healthily now, I know too well what kind of people are in the capital, deceiving each other for their own interests, intriguing, and intriguing methods are more ruthless than the other, I don't dare to gamble with this child's life, to bet on whether a man can love me to the end of his life, To bet on whether he can protect our mother and son, to bet on whether those who want to kill me will let me go, just when I am afraid of them, how dare I use my most precious and vulnerable to play with them now, I am afraid, really afraid! ”

Listening to Chen Jiayu say her heart, Lin Shuran swallowed the words that she wanted to say again, because Chen Jiayu was right, even if she was not sure that she would be able to protect her and her children foolproofly after she really returned to Beijing, human nature is unpredictable and cannot withstand the test, and even she has to deal with everything with all her heart!

"Sister Jiayu, I'm sorry, it's me who thinks things too simply, maybe you and your children can be safe and sound, which is what those of us who love you want to see the most, then you can live here with peace of mind, you can find me for anything, and I will come to see you every once in a while!" Everyone has their own way of life, and Lin Shuran also decided to respect Chen Jiayu's choice, and all he can do is to help her when she is in trouble in the future.

Chen Jiayu smiled and shook her head, Lin Shuran thought about her wholeheartedly, she cherished this friendship very much, but she also knew that Lin Shuran still had a large family to manage, and Xu Junze, as a close minister of the Son of Heaven, Lin Shuran, the general's wife, had to face a lot of things.

So, she said to Lin Shuran: "Sister Shuran, I don't have anything to do here, don't run around in the future, if there is anything difficult, I will let someone inform you." ”

Lin Shuran actually understands Chen Jiayu's concerns, and he walks too diligently this way, which is easy to arouse the suspicion of others, especially Wei Ying, who secretly has a lot of eyes to make people pay attention to his whereabouts.

Since he wants to help Chen Jiayu hide her whereabouts, Lin Shuran plans to come to see her so often if there are no accidents in the future, hoping that she can give birth to the child safely, and as for the future, she will face it later.

After returning from Chen Jiayu, Lin Shuran began to work on the affairs of the academy, and the queen mother temporarily handed over the affairs of the academy to her father Lin Youxing to promote, but there have been many court affairs in the past two years, so the affairs of the academy have been progressing very slowly, and until now, the gentlemen of the academy have not been found.

"Isn't there any news from the Wen family?" Lin Shuran had been waiting for her uncle's reply, and the emperor had decreed that a literary event should be held in the capital, and she could take this opportunity to find a more suitable gentleman for the academy.
