Chapter 831: It's not easy to be the head of the family
"Why?"
The Queen Mother announced that she had entered the palace a few days ago and asked for her granddaughter's birthday, because this is not an obvious thing.
Now His Majesty wants to pay a private visit, which is not as good as the palace, of course, he needs a kind person to serve, and who is more suitable than Hui'er.
In case you meet a folk woman during a private visit to Weifu, Hui'er can still watch from the side.
What a good thing.
Why not?
"Is the second brother in the study, let's go to the study."
Although Mrs. Lu was anxious, she could only follow him to the study, and when Lu Gongbi saw his wife, he wondered, "I didn't let you enter the palace, why did you come back again?"
"Second brother, I asked my second sister-in-law not to enter the palace."
Lu Gongzhi walked in: "Second brother, it's not appropriate to let Hui'er follow Your Majesty."
"Hui'er was chosen by the Queen Mother, and she will be the queen in the future, and she is the most qualified person to follow, why not?"
"Second brother is confused."
Lu Gong patiently analyzed the pros and cons: "Among the people who Your Majesty announced to be in charge of the country, is there Lord Gu?"
Lu Gongbi recalled and shook his head: "No."
"Lord Gu and Lord Han are the same as them, they are both privy envoys, it makes no sense for Your Majesty to let them supervise the country and ignore him, second brother, don't forget, Lord Gu is the teacher that the first emperor personally pointed out to His Majesty."
What an intimate relationship.
"I understand what the third brother means, Your Majesty will definitely take him with you on this trip. But what does this have to do with Hui'er?"
"Second brother, haven't you heard the rumors about Your Majesty and the Gu family's daughter?"
Lu Gongbi was stunned.
What rumors? He only knew that the people of Kyoto had been talking about the marriage between his Lu family's daughter and His Majesty recently, and he had never heard about His Majesty's relationship with the Gu family's daughter.
"Second brother thinks that after the courtiers wrote to His Majesty to set up, why did His Majesty disagree."
"You mean it's because of the Gu family?"
Lu Gongbi hissed, and muttered there with a not very happy look: "I always feel that the Gu family is here to restrain me."
When the first emperor was there, he wanted to be a privy deputy envoy, it was because of him that he didn't become a privy envoy, a few years ago, someone vacated the position of the privy envoy, and he also wanted that position, and finally Gu Qingjue sat up, and now his granddaughter has the opportunity to be the queen, and it is Gu Qingjue's daughter who is blocking the road.
It's to come to him.
"Second brother, whether it is Keke or not, in short, you can't let Hui'er go."
"No, I have to go!"
If you are not a queen, you can be a concubine.
The original Zhang family was no less than the current queen mother except for the name of a queen.
Lu Gongzhi didn't expect that the temptation of a queen's position to the second brother was so great: "Second brother, he is not the first emperor today, if he doesn't want to marry, no one can force him, won't he force Hui'er to a dead end when the time comes?"
"How can it be as serious as you said, as long as Hui'er follows His Majesty out of the palace, if she is not a palace concubine, she is also a palace concubine, even if she doesn't like it, the harem is so big, just find a palace at will!"
Mrs. Lu's brows furrowed slightly as she listened.
She didn't expect the old man to think like this, if she knew, she would never have entered the palace to implore the queen mother.
"Master, you only told me that Hui'er accompanied me, such affection will definitely move Your Majesty, and it will be logical to seal it when the time comes, but you didn't say this, if it is really as the third brother said, what will Hui'er do when the time comes?"
Lu Gongbi didn't mean to do so.
He is the head of the Lu family, but the Lu family is not his alone, it is related to the interests of the clan, even if he couldn't bear it at first, he still has to make this determination.
"Second brother, my brother advises you to think twice, if Your Majesty agrees, naturally everyone will be happy, but once you ......, Hui'er is innocent!"
Lu Gongbi's face was not good-looking, and he slowly sat back in his chair.
"Third brother, do you think I'm willing to do this? Hui'er was grown up by me, and I feel distressed, but if we succeed, our Lu family will be able to reach a higher level."
"The Lu family is now an extremely human minister, even if it wants to go further, it is not by sacrificing a woman
to be perfected."
Lu Gongzhu stood at the door: "Second brother, you are right, you are the head of the family, everything must be in the interests of the family first, have you ever thought that you are now a privy deputy envoy, we are four brothers, the eldest brother also served as the Yin of Kaifeng Mansion before his death, the second brother, you are now the deputy envoy of the privy council, I also sit on the position of Yin of this mansion, the fourth brother is the transfer envoy of Shaanxi, and I am the same as the third-grade official, our Lu family side branch, there are also many local positions, the Lu family is now a first-class family, and further is the beginning of the danger."
"The second brother must have thought about this, but because of the coercion of the elders in the clan, he had to do so."
Lu Gongbi was still very angry just now, and seeing that the third brother understood him, his face looked much better, and he nodded and said, "Those uncles are all elders, and they are mostly in charge of the family's business, and I am also under a lot of pressure."
Who doesn't want to be a good person!
The head of the house is not so easy to be.
He also didn't want to sacrifice the happiness of his children, Lu Sihui was his granddaughter, not theirs, and they didn't feel distressed at all when they came up with this idea.
"The second brother has worked hard all these years, and we all know in our hearts that when my uncle is old, he should take care of himself and not have to work hard."
Lu Gongbi raised his eyes to look at the third brother, and asked with his eyes, "What does the third brother mean?"
Knowing that the second brother understood, Lu Gong nodded.
"Madam, you don't have to go into the palace, go back to the backyard and rest."
Lu Gongzhu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The next turmoil in the Lu family, even when His Majesty left the palace, I don't know.
As an emperor, you have to be calm, but he is a young man of sixteen or seventeen, and he is still a fun-loving age, and sometimes he is panicked, and Zhao Rui, who came out of the palace, felt light in his breathing.
"Fifth brother, where are we going to play?"
Zhao Yu went out of the palace with him this time, usually he practiced martial arts in the palace, except for following out of the palace for autumn hunting, he had never been to any other places, and as soon as he came out of the imperial city, it was like releasing birds, so he didn't sit in the carriage seriously, nor did he ride a horse, but he worked lightly all the way, running along the big trees on both sides.
Zhao Rui did not sit in the carriage, but sat in the front, together with the commander of the carriage.
On both sides were Pan Gong and Pan Yi riding, followed by dozens of dragon guards who had changed into civilian clothes.
Needless to say, half of the Dragon Guards were dispatched to protect the safety of the officials, either explicitly or covertly.
At the front is Gu Qingjue's family on horseback.
Gu Qingjue put the horse at a speed, parallel to the carriage: "Wulangjun, where are we going to the first stop?"
"Go to Dengfeng City."
Songyang Academy was there, that was the place where the imperial court nurtured the pillars, and he wanted to see what kind of atmosphere the academy was like.
What is the difference with the reading atmosphere in the palace?
"Okay, let's go to Dengfeng."
It looks close from the map, but it takes two or three days to walk in a carriage.
On the first day out of the palace, nothing happened, but when it was almost noon on the second day, the sky suddenly rained heavily, and there was no place in front of the village and no store in the back.
