Raising a wife? The mistress of the Hou family divorced and remarried her younger uncle
Chapter 137 Confrontation
Chapter 137 Confrontation
When Su Qingwan came out of the Yangxin Palace, she was blown by the cold wind and shivered all over. Snowflakes flew into her eyes, instantly dyeing them red, and tears fell.
Before she stepped into the snow, someone grabbed her wrist and pulled her back to the corridor.
It’s Lu Jing!
He had stood behind her without knowing when, looking into her red eyes, "What's wrong?"
"Snow flew into my eyes." She rubbed her eyes, suppressing her sadness.
The Yangxin Palace had been cleaned and the woman's body was carried out. Su Qingwan saw her wrists hanging outside the white cloth, and blood was dripping into the snow, like a blooming red plum, which was quickly covered by the snow.
Lu Jing handed her a handkerchief. Su Qingwan took it and wiped her eyes. Her emotions were completely gone. Lu Jing asked, "Why did you follow the King of Southwest into the palace?"
Su Qingwan didn't answer. She didn't know how to answer and was too lazy to even find an excuse. Any excuse she made would be untenable in Lu Jing's opinion.
"The death of the little princess has completely destroyed your father's plan to overturn the case against the King of Huainan, right?"
"This is the result of overturning the case in Huainan." Lu Jing also stated straightforwardly. What happened in the hall was seen by everyone. The emperor and the civil service group would be cursed by the world. But the war has been settled, and the king has made contributions to the country, so why would he care about this little infamy? He can still sit on the dragon throne and balance the court.
With the previous experience of the little princess, the possibility of anyone overturning the case for Prince Huainan was blocked.
Su Qingwan was confused and confused. Things happened too fast. She didn't know what to do and suddenly lost her direction. Lu Jing stood with her in the corridor and said softly, "It's actually a good thing."
"Good news?" Perhaps because of the coldness, Su Qingwan's voice was trembling.
Lu Jing said, "The Emperor and the King of Southwest quarreled over Huainan's case. A general got drunk and wanted to vindicate Huainan. The Emperor was furious. Before the situation got out of control, everyone saw what the consequences of vindicating the King of Huainan would be. It was so cruel. If they insisted on doing so, Southwest would also have to pay such a painful price."
Su Qingwan knew that what he said was true, and she was very angry, but she had no other choice. People in the palace have ears, so Su Qingwan did not have a deep conversation with Lu Jing.
She was a little depressed and sad, but Lu Jing was not the kind of person who would spoil the fun. He just quietly accompanied her to watch the snow.
Inside the hall, the quarrel was still going on.
After the death of the little princess, the quarrels became even more intense. The civil officials and military officers quarreled with each other. She knew that there would be no end to the quarrel. In their eyes, the lives of the people killed in the hall were like ants and could not cause the slightest ripple in their hearts.
Su Qingwan also knew that all their plans were in vain. As long as the emperor did not plead guilty, it would be impossible to overturn the verdict. Su Qingwan thought angrily that she might as well kill him and put an end to it all.
But killing people under the hands of the Jinyiwei... Su Qingwan glanced at Lu Jing and thought it was just a pipe dream.
Lu Jing said, "Princess, the things in the palace are complicated and dangerous. They can't stop for a while. I'll send someone to take you back first."
"it is good!"
Su Qingwan responded softly. Lu Jing sent her to the palace gate. A carriage was waiting to pick her up. Su Qingwan said, "My father has an impatient temper. You... help me keep an eye on him."
"Okay!" Lu Jing thought to himself that he didn't need Su Qingwan to remind him, he would definitely keep an eye on his future father-in-law.
However, he had never expected that within the time it took to send Su Qingwan away, the King of Southwest would contradict the Emperor and be punished to kneel in the snow.
Lu Jing frowned slightly. Zhou Jingming was guarding the door with a serious expression. He quickly told Lu Jing what happened. Perhaps the King of Southwest was provoked and actually contradicted the emperor and wanted to check the authenticity of those letters.
