Chapter 167 Change of Life
Lu Yunchuan wanted to divorce his wife, and the one who divorced was the current princess. This matter was quickly spread in Beijing, and the emperor ordered to prohibit it several times to prevent damage to Princess Ping's reputation, but the rumors still couldn't stop.He wanted to convict the Lu family, but he didn't dare. Just like the Chen family, the Lu family couldn't move it!Because of this, the emperor was very troubled, and he complained to Princess Pingan in his heart, what did you say you did wrong, you insisted on harming Lu Yunchuan's favorite woman, she was just an outsider, is it worth your means?It's fine now, people are annoyed, let's see how you end up!
The emperor was helpless, and he couldn't talk to Pingan himself, so he asked the queen to talk to Xiang. The queen first called Princess Pingan into the palace, and Ping An was still very gentle and pleasant when she met the queen, but the queen sighed and was too lazy to go around with her , "Ping An, Ping An, what do you want me to say about you? As a princess, the son-in-law wants to divorce his wife. Do you want your face and reputation? As a woman, you are hated by your husband. How can a wife be!"

These words were not so serious, even Princess Ping blushed in embarrassment, she crushed the handkerchief in her hand, and kept silent, but what's the use of doing this now?
The queen looked at her and shook her head, "You are not the most outstanding among the princesses. At that time, the emperor and I were discussing that I wanted to marry my Yun'er to the General Zhenguo's mansion, but your biological mother begged hard. Ask the emperor to show you a good marriage, because your biological mother has raised the emperor, so he gave this marriage to you, you are so ignorant of cherishing it, do you know how many princesses in the palace want to marry you? If you want to marry that General Yunwei, do you know how many ladies in the capital are queuing up to marry into the Lu family? But you are so unbelievable that people will catch you and ask the emperor's face. You let the royal family It's not that you don't know the current situation of the emperor, not to mention that you firmly hold the Lu family in his hands for his sake, and even do such a thing, you just do it, but you are caught If someone catches you, should I say you are stupid or stupid!"

Pingan bit her lower lip tightly, tears were already rolling in her eyes but she was unwilling to just fall like this, holding on desperately, the queen became more and more annoyed when she saw this, "Since you dismissed my words, now you How to solve this matter? Then General Yunwei asked for an order to divorce his wife, what do you think the emperor and this palace should do?"

Pingan stood up and knelt down in front of the queen, "I beg the emperor and empress to have mercy, I will not leave the general's mansion until I die."

"Now that you have such a mind, why did you go away!" The queen said angrily, "You think this matter is so easy to redeem? You still want to be your wife in a serious manner, and then put Lu Yun It's not easy to play with Chuan in the palm of your hand, if you really don't want to go out of that mansion, I will have to deal with it for you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty and Your Majesty, Ping An will never embarrass your Majesty and Your Majesty again." Ping An hurriedly kowtowed to thank her, but the Empress was too lazy to talk nonsense with her, and waved her to go back and wait for news.

As soon as Ping'an returned, Lu Yunchuan was summoned into the palace, the queen saw him coming in and asked the maid to give him a seat, and said with a smile: "General Yunwei has not seen for a long time, and I should come to the palace with Ping'an from time to time. "

But Lu Yunchuan said indifferently: "Your Majesty should know about the matter between me and Princess Pingan, so don't say these things anymore."

This Lu Yunchuan!The queen was annoyed in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, she still smiled and said: "This is exactly why I came to you. They say that the husband and wife are fighting, and the fight at the head of the bed is at the end of the bed. You little husband and wife are just having an awkward fight, why bother?" Is it so serious to reconcile? Listen to Ben Gong's persuasion, let's forget it."

"It stands to reason that the empress personally persuaded me to make peace, and the minister should obey the order, but Princess Ping'an was too bold and reckless. She even sold the minister's concubine in private, and the concubine was still pregnant with the minister's flesh and blood. The empress also knew that the minister was married. Years ago, the princess did not give birth to a son and a half for the minister. It is so easy that the minister is about to have his own flesh and blood, but she does this, isn't it chilling? Other than that, she has committed the seven crimes. Yes, jealousy and mutilation of the minister's heirs are serious crimes, I can't just forget about it, I must make peace with her."

The queen pondered for a while, and then said: "The major general also knows that the current situation in the imperial court is turbulent, and the emperor's decree to grant the marriage should also be understood by the major general. It may be inappropriate to break this marriage hastily. It's better to be safe like this." What you have done is really excessive, so you can just place her in the inner courtyard. If you want to marry a concubine or take a concubine, it is up to you. This palace will not allow her to interfere any more, and she is not allowed to take care of the affairs of your house. Just let her occupy a position But, how?"

Lu Yunchuan thought for a while, then said, "She is willing?"

"I will persuade you on my own, and I am here to give you a guarantee. If she is safe and she makes trouble again, I don't need you to mention the word "heli", and I will let the emperor order you to abandon her. How about it? "

The queen's words have already reached this point, so Lu Yunchuan can only agree. Although he is very unhappy to let that woman stay in the mansion, but now there is no other way. Just for the sake of cleanliness.

It was rare that he would agree, so the queen asked someone to send a message to Princess Pingan. There were two choices, either to get divorced, or to be put into a cold room, leaving only the title.Hearing this, Ping An burst into tears, "Why is God so unfair to me? How could the emperor and empress treat me like this? I am their imperial sister, and Lu Yunchuan is so cruel to me, this heartless man... "

Such words reached Lu Yunchuan's ears, and he snorted coldly: "This woman only thinks that others have harmed her, but she doesn't know that it is her own cruelty and unscrupulousness that made her what she is today. Chuang Tzu, come on, so that I won't be upset when I see it."

Even the old general Lu and the old lady didn't want to see her again, so the servants took orders to do it, but Princess Pingan refused, so they had to find a few thick women to hold her down and send her to the carriage.

Although the emperor and the empress promised that Lu Yunchuan could marry a concubine, many people who heard the news asked someone to inquire about it, but Lu Yunchuan shook his head and refused to marry again, making Old General Lu very worried, although he There are a few younger brothers below, but they are all concubines. This huge family business will be passed on to the concubine. What's more, Lu Yunchuan not only does not accept the concubine, but also dismisses several concubines. The most important thing is that he doesn't even have any children now, so how can the two elders of the Lu family not worry about it!
Lu Yunchuan even made a fuss in front of the emperor and queen because Xiang Wan was going to divorce the princess. Naturally, Su Jin heard about this, and she couldn't bear it anymore. Although Lu Yunchuan was responsible for Xiang Wan's betrayal, But it's not all his responsibility, isn't it? What's more, his current performance at least shows that he has always put Xiang Wan in his heart, so...

Su Jin went to Lu's house on horseback, and Lu Yunchuan happened to be at home, and he was surprised when he appeared in front of Su Jin, with an unshaven beard and a flagon in his hand, a completely self-destructive person.Su Jin's face turned cold, "Does the Major General think that only such a decadent life can let people know that you miss Xiang Wan? Or do you think that Xiang Wan can survive if you are like this? I hate men who give up on themselves the most, you are like this How can I hand over Xiang Wan's child to you?"

Hearing the last few words, Lu Yunchuan stood up abruptly, "What did you say? Say it again?"

"It's true that Xiang Wan had a difficult labor, but she left behind a child." Su Jin looked at him seriously and said, "I came this time to tell you about it, but now I think you can't do anything if you know , I don't believe you can take good care of that child."

"I can, I can." Lu Yunchuan hurriedly put down the jug in his hand, "I will never drink again from now on, never fight with others, never go out to mess around again, I will be honest Those who stay at home and look at that child, you believe me, Su Jin, you believe me, I'm already sorry to Xiang Wan, and I will never let our child down again, even for this child, I can never marry again. "

It just so happened that the old lady heard that Su Jin was coming, and she also wanted to know about Xiang Wan, especially about the child. Although she heard that both the mother and the child died of dystocia, she always had to ask.The old lady walked to the door and heard these words, and hurried in, "You are Su Jin? You just said that the child is still alive, is it true or false?"

Su Jin nodded, "People in our Su family will never lie, let alone this matter is not something that can be said nonsense. The child is alive and well, and it has been ten months now."

"Is it a boy or a girl?" Mrs. Lu asked eagerly.

Su Jin asked without answering, "Is this matter important to the old lady?"

"Of course it's important. My son doesn't have a son yet. Only when we have a son can we pass on the incense of our Lu family," the old lady paused after finishing speaking. After all, she is the eldest daughter of our Lu family." Several concubines also gave birth to sons and daughters, but they were all concubines, and she only had such a son. Naturally, his children are the most important, even daughters are more important than others. Daughters born to concubine sons are precious.

"What about you? Is a son or daughter that important to you? If it's a daughter, would you still guard him and never marry again?" Su Jin turned to look at Lu Yunchuan.

Mrs. Lu stopped drinking and said, "Naturally not. As Yun Chuan, as the eldest son, if he doesn't marry again, our Lu family will have no eldest grandson. How can this be done? Miss Su, don't threaten Yun with this matter again." It's over, he can't decide this matter! This concubine must be married."

As if he had made up his mind, Lu Yunchuan raised his head and looked at Su Jin swearingly, "I can, I decide my own affairs, if it's a daughter, then she must look like Xiang Wan, so why don't I guard her for the rest of my life? "

"Yun Chuan! You are not allowed to act recklessly!" the old lady stopped.

Lu Yunchuan didn't listen to what she said, but looked at Su Jin seriously, "I swear, if I want to marry again, I..."

"Okay!" Su Jin and Mrs. Lu stopped his words at the same time. Seeing that Su Jin was speaking with her, Mrs. Lu glanced at her. Su Jin sighed, "I just want to try you Forget it, let me tell you, Xiang Wan gave birth to a son. I named him Changsheng, which means that his mother exchanged her life for his. At that time, the doctor asked whether to protect the eldest or the youngest, and I did it for her. The main thing is to protect the adults, but she resolutely wants to protect the child. She said that even if she survives, she doesn't know if she will see you again. You are on the battlefield again, life and death are boundless, and you always want to leave a blood for you Yes, so..."

"Really?" Mrs. Lu asked hurriedly.

Lu Yunchuan was moved by what Su Jin said later, and his heart was surging. A daughter or a son are the same to him, but Mrs. Lu didn't think so. If it was a boy, he would be the eldest son of the Lu family!

"As I said just now, our Su family won't lie." Su Jin said with a smile, "He looks more like Xiang Wan when he grows up, but he can vaguely see the shadow of the major general. He is a smart and cute child."

"Where is that child?" Both mother and son were eager to know this question.

Su Jin just laughed, and said anxiously when asked: "The child is in my house, I raised him as my own child, I'm afraid it's impossible for me to return it to your house now, since he's still too young, I'll change it rashly." He will be afraid of the environment, and he has already recognized people; secondly, there is no one in the house who can take care of him, and the environment in your house is too complicated, which is not good for the child's growth; If you don’t marry a concubine, what should you do if the concubine is not good for your children? It has been said since ancient times that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather, so I can’t take risks. As long as the new life is not good in your house, I will not only I will feel distressed and will live up to Xiang Wan's entrustment, so this child, please forgive me for not giving it back."

"How can you do this? It's not convenient for a girl who has not left the court to raise a child. If you bring him, I will take care of him personally. I will definitely not let anyone bully me!" Mrs. Lu said anxiously.

Su Jin shook her head, "When Changsheng grows older, I will naturally let him recognize his ancestors. I am not saying this this time to whet your appetite. It is because I think that Changsheng will come back sooner or later, so I tell you Say, I want to leave a seat for him, he is the eldest son of your Lu family, there is no doubt about it." As she herself said, she had to consider this point, if she didn't tell the matter, Although Changsheng can follow her for the rest of her life, she will treat Changchang as her own child, but she can't do this, Xiang Wan doesn't want this, and Changsheng won't be happy to be treated like this. People in the family will recognize their ancestors sooner or later, so it is necessary to fight for a good position for him. If I don’t say these things today, these people don’t know that there is such a person as a newborn, then in the future Lu Yunchuan’s wife and concubine They gave birth to a son and occupied this position, how should her new life deal with herself after returning?

Lu Yunchuan looked at her pleadingly, "I know that no matter what you do, it is for the sake of changing your life, and to fulfill Xiang Wan's entrustment, but can you let me see the child?"

Su Jin thought for a while and nodded, "When I leave Beijing and return to Suzaku City, you can go back with me."

Lu Yunchuan happily agreed, wishing that Su Jin would leave Beijing immediately.But no matter what, he has faith in his heart, a reason to live a good life, and a reason not to let him go down, he should cheer up, and he can't let his children see an unreliable Dad, he wants to be a father who makes his son proud and proud of him.

Seeing this, Mrs. Lu had no choice but to leave angrily.

Qi Yao saw Su Jin at the door of Lu's house, and he knew what was going on when he saw the unbearable smile on Lu Yunchuan's face. Originally, he wanted to comfort him, but now it was unnecessary, so he simply hated After going out with Su Jin, the foolish Lu Yunchuan only cared about flattering Su Jin, and didn't bother to ask him what he was here for, so he sent him away again.

The two led the horse and walked slowly. Su Jin tilted her head and looked at Qi Yao's side face. His face was sharp and angular. From this angle, even the fluff on his face could be seen clearly.She had to say that this man is really good-looking, different from the beauty of Han Yu and Zhusan, his beauty is full of heroism, his eyelashes are slightly raised, bending out a beautiful arc, he...

"Am I so good-looking?" Qi Yao suddenly turned his head to look at her, "I can't even see the stones under my feet."

Su Jin turned her head in embarrassment, and when she saw a few stones under her feet, she smiled, led the horse around, and lowered her head in embarrassment to look up again.

"Didn't you say that your riding skills are very good? How about we compare?" Qi Yao invited with a smile.

"Okay, where are we going?" Su Jin took the rein eagerly, not knowing that Qi Yao's words were actually a conspiracy.

"Just go to the outskirts of Beijing. I have a hot spring village there. If you win, how about I invite you to go to the hot spring?" Qi Yao said with a smile, with a hint of abduction in his voice.

Su Jin, who was excited, didn't realize it at all, so she went to soak in the hot spring. She was sweating all over her body in such a hot day. It would be very comfortable if she could take a dip in the hot spring. She hurriedly responded, "I will definitely not lose to Yours, let's compare." After speaking, he got on his horse and jumped out first.With a triumphant smile on his face, Qi Yao got on his horse and rushed up.

This result is of course needless to say, Su Jin ran all the way and almost hit someone several times, while Qi Yao was steady and followed her properly. When he reached the suburbs of Beijing, Su Jin reined in, "Please Shall I go to the hot spring?"

Qi Yao's Zhuangzi is not big, but it is very valuable because it is built on a hot spring. It is summer now, and the effect of the hot spring is not obvious, but if it comes to winter, this Zhuangzi is a good place to escape the cold.Originally, Qi Yao could not afford to buy this Zhuangzi, and if those powerful people got it, they would not sell it, but because Qi Yao discovered this hot spring, he built this Zhuangzi without telling anyone.
