Step by step lotus flower

Chapter 496 I knew it earlier (2)
But if it is changed to the emperor, it will be different. The emperor's subordinates are still short of people who can do these unsightly things?If you don't make a move, let it go, once you make a move, Prince Gong will have no chance of turning around!

After figuring this out, Lu Wenting only felt chills in his back. He knew the cruelty of the phrase "the Tian family has no father and son" before, but he has only realized how cruel it is. King Ning is so lucky to have the emperor Such pampering, on the other hand, how unfortunate is the eldest prince, born in the royal family, with such an eccentric father as the emperor!

But then again, if Prince Gong hadn't been dishonest himself, the emperor wouldn't have been so easy to draw his salary from the bottom of the pot, making him no longer qualified to aspire to the crown prince. In the end, it was all his own fault, and who could he blame?
Lu Wenting told himself over and over again in his heart that Prince Gong was to blame, and his voice still couldn't help but flutter, "This is just our suspicion, after all, there is no real evidence. After all, the eldest prince is the emperor's own son. He's so cruel...well..." It's just that even he himself didn't feel any convincing.

The old man said coldly: "That's why the emperor said to your father, 'It is better to tear down ten temples than to destroy a family'. If your father, who is the father-in-law and uncle, is more lenient with the eldest prince, his heart will be broken." After all, I still feel ashamed of the eldest prince, otherwise, wouldn’t it be better to let your sister reconcile with the eldest prince? If the eldest prince has no wife and family, it will be even less worrying in the future. I reckon, his idea After establishing King Ning and announcing the Heaven and Earth Ancestral Temple, after the overall situation is settled, it is not impossible to release the first prince from the confinement, and even restore his Prince Jue. Let him be an idle prince in the future. Compensation for him."

"So, the emperor really wants to establish a crown prince this time?" Lu Wenting's voice was still a little fluttering.

Lu Zhongmian continued: "This year probably won't be established, but it won't be so after the new year. After all, something happened to the eldest prince, and the emperor appointed King Ning as the crown prince. It's hard for people not to suspect that the matter has something to do with King Ning. , the prestige of King Ning must be disadvantageous. Moreover, there is King Duan who ranks ahead of King Ning. King Duan only won the hearts of the people last year because of the flood. Concubine Ding and Concubine Gui are on the same level in terms of status, the emperor must first create momentum for King Ning, big or small, let him make a few contributions, and only then can he overwhelm King Duan in terms of prestige."

"That's why the emperor kept the Qi family intact!" Lu Wenting suddenly realized, "The emperor wants to use the existence of the Qi family and Qi Changfeng to remind all civil and military officials and everyone that the eldest prince is a tainted person. A person whose reputation has been ruined, even if he is the eldest son, is really unbearable to be the master of the world, so as not to change the situation, all the officials will oppose Li Ning Wang again!"

The old man stroked his beard and nodded, although he didn't take it seriously that the emperor, as a father-in-law, did what he did this time. At best, he was playing tricks on power, and at worst, he was playing tricks on his son, but he was very satisfied with his grandson's inference. .

Lu Wenting immediately thought of another thing: "Grandfather and father can see that this is the handwriting of the emperor. Could it be that my uncles and the empresses in the palace can't see it, so they can be willing to be tricked by the emperor like this? I'm afraid they I won't let it go and let it go..."

Lu Zhongmian said: "Do you think that your grandfather and I figured out that this matter is the work of the emperor? At best, we only dare to have a little doubt in our hearts about such an unbelievable thing. Someone deliberately revealed it to us."

Thinking of the person who intended to reveal the news to them, that is, Ling Mengqi, Lu Zhongmian couldn't help secretly rejoicing that his family treated him kindly at the beginning. Although a minister should not speculate on the holy will, if he doesn't speculate on the holy will, how can he avoid it? How about keeping the glory and wealth of the family in the long run?Sure enough, in life, we still need a variety of good causes, because only when we plant good causes, will we bear good results. On the contrary, if we plant evil causes, we will only reap evil results!
Thinking of the evil consequences, Lu Zhongmian couldn't help but think of his stupid wife, whose mind is smaller than a pinhole. If she hadn't had a wicked heart and betrothed her concubine to a scum named Qi, the emperor would still plot against the eldest prince. , but Dingguo's mansion will not be trapped in this mud, even if it will not suffer too much substantial damage, it will inevitably be splashed with mud, which is really disgusting!
Lu Zhongmian asked his son in a cold voice: "Where's your mother, didn't she say that she went back to Beijing with you?"

Hearing this, Lu Wenting's heart skipped a beat. Knowing that his father was going to punish his mother, he pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "The son sent his mother to stay with his sister in the eldest prince's mansion for a few days. What happened, my sister It must be very hard in her heart, and with her mother by her side, she can get some comfort."

Just waiting to intercede for Mrs. Lu, I don't think the old man has already said: "When Mrs. Xu comes back, send her to Xiaotangshan's village to recuperate. After a few years, she will be fully recovered before taking over. It's not too late for her to come back, anyway, two daughters have encountered such unfortunate things together, it's only natural for her to be furious and sick, Ting Ge's daughter-in-law is also enough to take charge of the family and take charge of the family. "

Just because Xu gave birth to such an outstanding heir as the grandson of the Lu family, he is willing to give her the dignity and honor he deserves as a father-in-law.

After his father had spoken, Lu Zhongmian couldn't say any more, so he could only respond, "But according to father's orders."

The old Duke nodded, and returned to the topic just now: "The brothers An Guogong and the empress will naturally not let it go. Whether they can see that this matter is the emperor's handwriting is actually irrelevant, anyway. They will only put the blame on King Ning. After all, the emperor is still a little more merciful. Since he is determined to establish King Ning, he should let the empress and the government of Anguo have no chance of turning over. What kind of trouble might arise!"

Just as Lu Zhongmian was about to answer the conversation, he heard the voice of the old man's confidantes outside: "Go back to the old man, it seems that the old man has arrived."

The three generations had no choice but to stop talking about it, and Lu Wenting went out to pick up Lu Zhongxian, and the old man personally ordered Lu Zhongxian to come in.

Lu Zhongxian was a smart person, otherwise he wouldn't be here today, after listening to the old man's order, he didn't say a word, so he left by himself, led people to Qi's house to talk about reconciliation and departure, and greeted Lu Mingli's "coffin" has gone.

The rest of Lu Zhongmian remembered that the mud splashed all over his house was because of Lu Mingli's selfishness in the final analysis, so he couldn't help scolding her again: "That wicked girl only cares about her own momentary happiness, but she doesn't care about her parents. I'd like to see, without the protection of the clan, and even without a name, what good can she get!"

Here, Lu Zhongmian scolded Lu Mingli, and Mrs. Lu in the First Prince's Mansion was also gnashing her teeth and cursing her with all vicious words: "...a bitch who kills thousands of knives, a whore with sores on her head and pus on her feet, I should have killed her in my infancy, so that today's disaster will not happen! Bitch, I curse You were robbed by bandits, thousands of people rode thousands of people to sleep, you were humiliated to death, and after death, you will go to the eighteenth floor of hell, and you will never be reborn forever!"
