After the demon concubine returned to the palace, the emperor and I switched bodies

Chapter 116 Fear
However, the glory brought by the position of the son of the world is like the moon in the water in the mirror, and it will not last long.

Lu Yuzhi's confession, if it is put on the line, can be classified as treason.

Conspiracy, become a barbarian!
Even if the net is lenient, the glory of Xuan'an Hou Mansion will no longer exist.

Not to mention, the old lady wanted to leave with all her heart.

Wang Bao opened the door of the palace in response. Lu Mingzhi was a little cautious, even with the same hands and feet, his ears were red as if bleeding, and the hands beside him were tightly clenched into fists, but this did not relieve his tension, but made him more embarrassed.

This is his first time facing the Holy Spirit alone.

In the past, even if it was a palace banquet, his parents rarely allowed him to enter the palace together.

In name, he is the second son of the Marquis of Xuan'an.

In reality, he's just a total yes-man who's been ignored.

Now, his father was recuperating on the couch under the cane punishment, and his elder brother was imprisoned in the palace without any news, so he was the only one who could stand up.

"Lu Mingzhi."

Cui Canwen tried to slow down her voice.

She was afraid that she would be majestic again, Lu Mingzhi was so frightened that he couldn't speak.

Lu Mingzhi knelt down on the ground with a plop, "Minister Lu Mingzhi greets Your Majesty, Empress."

"The minister hastily asked for an audience today to plead guilty on behalf of my father and elder brother."

"My elder brother's concubine concubine is not dead, my elder brother has not killed anyone, and my elder brother has been married to Princess Ruixian for three years. I implore His Majesty to reconsider my elder brother and give him a chance to prove his innocence."

While talking, kowtow.

From beginning to end, he did not raise his head.

The dull sound of kowtows echoed all over the hall, and the stammering appeals were like the humming of mosquitoes and flies, but they couldn't be heard clearly.

Cui Canwen really couldn't tell how much of the acting was involved.

Is there such a restrained and timid son in the honorable family?
Many families, even the bastards, wished they could become centipedes and run rampant.

Even Liang Shaoyuan felt cowardly, which meant he was really cowardly.

"Lu Mingzhi, raise your head."

"You lift up and repeat what you just said."

Lu Mingzhi raised his head according to his words, his forehead was already bright red, with blood stains faintly on his cheeks, the color had faded from his cheeks, and he was terribly pale.

His body was trembling uncontrollably, and his upper and lower teeth kept chattering.

Trembling, eyes flickering, mouth opening and closing, but no sound.

This appearance was in stark contrast to Lu Yuzhi who was speaking nonsense in the Hall of Eternal Life that day.

Cui Canwen sighed, as if all of Lu Mingzhi's strength and courage had been exhausted just now.

"I'm not a bloodthirsty tyrant, you don't have to be so afraid."

Could it be that she already has a bad reputation?

"I'm not afraid, but, yes, it's respect."

Cui Canwen: She hasn't reached the point where her eyesight is dim.

Liang Shaoyuan, who was already depressed and restless, said impatiently, "You are also the son of the Xuan'an Marquis Mansion after all, such a small family will only add to the joke."

Seeing Lu Mingzhi, Liang Shaoyuan inevitably thought of himself.

In the eyes of the world, the crown prince fell on top of him back then, just like Lu Mingzhi fell to the crown prince of Xuan'an Hou Mansion today.

is unworthy.

It's a joke.

is luck.

Back then, was he like Lu Mingzhi, trembling like walking on thin ice?

Even if he was a prince, he didn't dare to straighten his back, and he didn't even dare to condemn himself in the face of the vagaries of the veterans.

He was reprimanding Lu Mingzhi for being petty, so why not himself.

Big jokes, small jokes, just fifty steps to laugh at a hundred steps.

Thinking of this, Liang Shaoyuan became more irritable, but his tone subconsciously slowed down.

Could it be that Lu Mingzhi succeeded in replacing Lu Yuzhi, shined brilliantly in front of everyone, and led the Xuan'an Marquis Mansion to continue its glory, which meant that sooner or later he would also be able to erase the traces left by Brother Yong and become a well-deserved son of heaven.

"Lu Mingzhi, please speak carefully."

"Since the imperial decree has appointed you as the son, then you are a legitimate son."

"My son, you should have the demeanor of your son."

Cui Canwen looked at Liang Shaoyuan, who had suddenly turned into a confidant big brother, from the corner of his eye, and guessed the reason as his thoughts turned.

It's just thinking about farting.

Can Lu Yuzhi compare to King Yong?
Or is Lu Mingzhi as shameless as Liang Shaoyuan?
There is no comparability at all, but Liang Shaoyuan just feels the same way.

"The queen is right."

Cui Canwen did not tear down the stage.

She really wanted to know what kind of soul was hidden under Lu Mingzhi's timid skin.

This look is a bit too much.

Lu Mingzhi, whose face was pale and body shaking like chaff, gradually calmed down. Although he was still panicking, he still managed to speak out with his composure.

"Thank you, Your Majesty and Empress, for your understanding."

Immediately afterwards, Lu Mingzhi repeated those words.

Cui Canwen adjusted her sitting posture slightly, preparing to quietly watch Liang Shaoyuan and Lu Mingzhi perform.

"Lu Yuzhi no longer has a lord, a mediocre man, what qualifications do you have to ask you to come here to plead guilty instead."

"His sin is not limited to the life and death in that outer chamber."

"You will take the position of your son in a safe and secure manner, make contributions, and solve problems for the palace and the emperor."

Safe and secure?

I'm afraid it won't be safe.

Cui Canwen took a sip of tea, looked past Lu Mingzhi, and looked outside the hall.The door of the hall is open, even through the corridor eaves, sunlight can shine in.

The crime of recruiting bandits and raising private soldiers should be punished.

Cui Canwen squinted her eyes, and then she heard Lu Mingzhi say honestly and reservedly, "My brother and I are a family, and my brother is in trouble, so I can't stand by and watch."

However, she remembered that Wang Bao once said that on the day the decree was announced, Lu Mingzhi's eyes were full of subtle joy.

In the aspect of observing words and expressions, the servants in the palace are the best.

Brotherhood?

To be discussed!

Liang Shaoyuan patted his leg lightly, hating iron for being weak, "Did he ever share the limelight with you when he was so beautiful?"

Cui Canwen was puzzled: Is it possible to share the limelight?
Although Lu Yuzhi's character is worrying, but he was able to win the reputation of the son of the exiled fairy in Chang'an City, which is full of talented scholars and beautiful women.

Otherwise, how could Concubine Pei miss her until death, and how could Princess Ruixian marry without regard for herself.

Lu Mingzhi's eyes dimmed, and he murmured, "It's because I'm not up to date."

"It's not that you don't live up to expectations, it's that Marquis Xuan'an never gave you a fair chance..."

Hearing this, Cui Canwen coughed lightly and interrupted Liang Shaoyuan's increasingly incoherent words, "I mean, is there a possibility that the eldest son inherits the title, which is also the ancestral system."

Is it possible that the position of marquis should be like raising a gu, after being killed and devoured, the capable will live there?
Even the royal family, if the eldest son is not hopeless, will never easily shake the position of the crown prince.

Empathy means empathy, but please also note that some speakers have no intention of saying it, but the listener intends it.

Although it is only talking about the elder and younger, it will be passed down from generation to generation that the Cui family of Qinghe is trying to make the children equal.

There is no doubt that after adding oil and vinegar, it is more than that.
