Chapter 396 Don't dare to gamble
Emperor Zhao You strictly ordered the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Yushitai to interrogate the three divisions. Evidence about Lu Yong's crimes came from all directions like snowflakes. These evidences were presented by Lu Yong's political enemies, opponents, and enemies, as well as those who were oppressed. What the common people and officials provided, and some of them took the initiative to explain for self-protection. As the saying goes, the monkeys scatter when the trees fall, and they attack them in groups, which is Lu Yong's current situation.

Moreover, the emperor even ordered that Concubine De's son be handed over to Concubine Yun to be raised, because judging from the evidence obtained so far in the tribunal, even if Lu Yong is not convicted of collaborating with the enemy and treason, the blood debts he committed over the years are enough to bring disaster to the entire family. The Lu family and Concubine De will never get up again this time.

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

And Lin Shuran heard that after learning about Lu Yong's accident in the capital, the Ma family in southern Xinjiang immediately convened the clan to discuss and decided to remove all the women in the clan who were married to the Lu family from the genealogy. The Ma family can also keep their roots.

It's just that this kind of method of taking the clan members to protect themselves is really despicable and chilling. It is the most despicable practice of the family of the family, and it is also a sign that the clan cannot continue in the long run.

"What's so strange about this, there is nothing 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 farm on the edge of the town, which is even more secluded than the town It is also suitable for her to raise a baby here without being disturbed by anyone.

Early in the morning, Lin Shuran came to see her secretly again. Chen Jiayu also knew that she couldn't hide her pregnancy, and she didn't want to hide it. Maybe it was because she really couldn't cut ties with everyone in her heart. She longs for home, for warmth, and for friends.

Looking at Chen Jiayu with a slightly protruding belly and the warm and peaceful smile on her face, Lin Shuran can know how much she cares about and loves the child in her belly. No matter who the father of this child is, this will be the most important thing for her. baby.

When the two were chatting, Lin Shuran told her everything that had happened in the capital recently. After Chen Jiayu heard it, especially after learning about the practices of the Ma family in southern Xinjiang, she didn't feel any surprise. Many people know the "reputation" of being mean and ungrateful. They seem to be so selfish and ruthless by nature.

"The most pitiful ones are those women of the Ma family. After they get married, their confidence in their husband's family is given by their natal family. The only thing they can rely on in this world is their own family. It is obvious that they are not the ones who made mistakes, but in the end they are still allowed to suffer. Involvement, and this is something that can’t be helped!" Chen Jiayu had sympathy for those Ma family women, but she felt that she was no different from those Ma family women. Dongling Chen family is also a big family, and they have done a lot Is it a chilling thing!
Lin Shuran also sighed softly. This is the sorrow of women in ancient times. In this era where men are superior to women, their status is so low, and they have been living on others all their lives. In the world, women like Chen Jiayu who are "strong men hold their wrists" are not Many, so I really admire her.

"Sister Jiayu, do you really not intend to let Wei Ying know that you are pregnant with his child? I think he is sincere to you, and you also seem to have feelings for him. If that is the case, why are you afraid of rumors? This child should have parents by his side from the moment he is born!" Lin Shuran still couldn't bear the heart of Chen Jiayu raising the child alone, and the two who clearly love each other, are they really going to give up because of the difficulties ahead?
Chen Jiayu lowered her eyes, gently stroked her lower abdomen with her hands, and raised a smile at the corner of her mouth. She raised her head to look at Lin Shuran softly and said, "Sister Shuran, I know what you think, but now I only hope This child can grow up safely and healthily. I know too well what kind of people those people in the capital are. They deceive each other and intrigue each other for their own interests. The methods of conspiracy and tricks are more and more ruthless. I dare not take the life of this child. To bet, to bet on whether a man can love me till the end of his life, to bet on whether he can protect our mother and child, to bet on whether those who want to kill me will let me go, as if I am afraid of them , How dare I take my most precious and most vulnerable game with them now, I am afraid, really afraid!"

Listening to Chen Jiayu uttering her heart, Lin Shuran swallowed what she wanted to say, because what Chen Jiayu said was right, even if she was not sure that she would be able to protect her and her family after she really returned to Beijing. My child, human nature is unpredictable and can't stand the test. Don't you even have to work hard to deal with everything!

"Sister Jiayu, I'm sorry, but I oversimplified things. Maybe you and your children are safe and sound, which is what those of us who love you want to see most. Then you can live here with peace of mind. You can come to me for anything, and I will come to see you every once in a while!" Everyone has their own way of life, Lin Shuran also decided to respect Chen Jiayu's choice, and what he can do is to help her when she has difficulties in the future. Time to help her.

Chen Jiayu smiled and shook her head, Lin Shuran was thinking of her wholeheartedly, she cherished this friendship very much, but she also knew that Lin Shuran still had a big family to take care of, and Xu Junze was a close minister of the emperor, Lin Shuran, the wife of a great general, wanted to take care of her. There are not many things to face.

So, she said to Lin Shuran: "Sister Shuran, I have nothing to do here. Don't run around in the future. If there is any difficulty, I will let you know."

Lin Shuran actually understands Chen Jiayu's concerns, and if he walks this way too often, it is easy to arouse the suspicion of others, especially Wei Ying secretly has many intentions to make people pay attention to his whereabouts.

Since she wanted to help Chen Jiayu conceal her whereabouts, Lin Shuran planned not to visit her so frequently if there were no accidents in the future, and hoped that she could give birth to the child safely. As for the future, we will face it later.

After returning from Chen Jiayu, Lin Shuran started to work on the affairs of the academy. The queen mother temporarily handed over the affairs of the academy to her father Lin Youxing to advance it. However, there have been many court affairs in the past two years, so the affairs of the academy have been progressing very slowly. Until now, the masters of the academy have not been found.

"Has there been any news from the Wen family?" Lin Shuran has been waiting for her uncle's reply. The emperor ordered a literary event to be held in the capital, and she can take this opportunity to find a more suitable gentleman for the academy.
