Concubine Shu calmed down her anger and looked at Grandma Wang.

Grandma Wang continued: "For a small family like the Lu family, it would be easy for the Prime Minister to overthrow him. There are many high-ranking princes in the capital, but Anguo Gong's family is not the only one. The Queen's entry into the palace is so important."

I have been living in seclusion for many years, but I don’t have as many connections as you, my empress. What’s more, the second prince has many wings, so how can a childless queen defeat you?”

"Just let her make a fuss. With her in front of you for comparison, the Emperor will realize how virtuous and generous you are, Your Majesty. The Queen took Concubine Zhen away today just for the sake of Miss Lu San. Concubine Zhen was previously attached to Concubine,

How dare the queen let go

If you want to use her, let's let it go for a while. There will always be a way to undetect it..." At this point, Grandma Wang made a gesture of wiping her neck, and her sinister expression made the wrinkles on her face look like

They all became ferocious.

With Grandma Wang's words of comfort, the depression in Concubine Shu's chest instantly relaxed a lot.

"You are right. The most important thing for me is to help the emperor eliminate Chu Jinyan, a serious problem in his heart. Everything else is not enough."

The emperor had no eldest son or legitimate son, and the one who had the highest demand for the crown prince in the court was her son. But suddenly the emperor brought Chu Jinyan back from outside, and revealed his identity to the world before everyone had time to recover.

The Queen's legitimate son was secretly cultivated by the Emperor for his safety. His noble status immediately won the support of many courtiers.

When Lu Xiang returned home after dark, Lu Youping had been waiting for her in the front hall. When he saw her coming back, he rushed forward and asked with concern: "Xiang Xiang, have you had dinner?"

That look, not to mention how attentive he is.

"Dad." Lu Xiang called out, "The Queen gave me a meal and I've finished it."

"Are you full? I'll ask the kitchen to heat up the food. Can you eat some more?"

The corners of Lu Xiang's mouth twitched slightly: "No, I'm going to see my grandmother. Do you want me to come with you?"

Lu Youping nodded hurriedly: "Okay."

I went to Fuyuantang at this time to report to my mother on the situation in the palace.

He was also greatly frightened today and needed to hear some good news to soothe his wounded heart.

The old lady only ate a few mouthfuls of dinner and then lay down on the bed weakly.

Mother Wen moved two round stools and placed them next to the old lady's bed, then retreated with the maids and stood guard outside the door.

Lu Xiang knew that the old lady was worried about the safety of the concubine, so she said directly: "Grandma, don't worry, the concubine will be brought back to Yanxi Palace by the empress. Concubine Shu dare not directly disobey the queen's instructions."

When the old lady heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief: "The Queen's grace will never be forgotten by the Lu family. Thanks to you, Xiangxiang."

Lu Youping was relieved but at the same time he couldn't help but frown: "Has Concubine Shu's anger subsided? Will she deliberately compete with the concubines and the Lu family?"

"Father, Lu Mingzhu has caused a big disaster. It is a blessing to be able to ask the Queen to save the concubine. Grandma, granddaughter said something inappropriate. The concubine should have been prepared to be abandoned when she decided to attach herself to Concubine Shu. Now she has

What's the use of regretting things again, if I didn't think about taking refuge in anyone, I wouldn't have the consequences today."

"Concubine Shu angered Concubine Zhen and ordered her to kneel on the ground covered with sharp stones. This kind of punishment could not kill her, but it was a huge torture. Although the queen came to save her, because Concubine Zhen was attached to Concubine Shu first, so

I can’t hold any grudge against her, but I will try my best to protect my concubine.”

The old lady nodded with deep understanding and sighed heavily.

She understood her daughter and was unwilling to be mediocre in the palace, so she went to Concubine Shu to make a gamble for herself, but unexpectedly she almost lost her life.

Lu Youping smacked his mouth and did not dare to speak. His anger towards Lu Mingzhu increased by three points.

"One more thing..." Lu Xiang looked at the old lady and Lu Youping, and then said what he said to Queen Song again.

When she was digging a hole for Lu Mingzhu, she thought of these words, 70% true and 30% false, leaving no one in doubt.

When the old lady heard the last part, she was so angry that she picked up the pillow behind her and threw it at Lu Youping, saying angrily: "You bastard, look at the good daughter you raised."

Lu Youping didn't dare to hide and let the pillow hit him. Fortunately, it was a soft pillow.

"Mom, my son never thought that Mingzhu would be so bold."

Lu Youping felt that his heart was about to jump out of his throat, and his mind went blank in fear.

Lu Xiang showed a trace of grievance and said: "When Lu Mingzhu asked me to embroider the fans, I wanted to refuse, but she said that if she revealed this matter, my aunt would have committed the crime of bullying the emperor, and might bring trouble to the entire Lu family.

And even if you tell your aunt,

My aunt would definitely hide this matter and ask me to do the embroidery for her. I thought it didn’t matter who embroidered it, as long as it was beneficial to the Lu family, but I never imagined that she would make such a big mistake on something as important as the Queen Mother’s birthday gift, which would harm myself.

It also harmed the concubine."

"It's also my fault. When she brought the Hundred Birds to the Phoenix to show to my grandmother, I didn't check it carefully."

The old lady looked at Lu Youping with a knife in her eyes: "It's all Lu Mingzhu's fault. It has nothing to do with you. She is a waste who succeeds only in failure. She is selfish. The entire Lu family was almost destroyed by her."

Lu Youping shrank his neck. He was so proud of Lu Mingzhu's daughter before, but now he was slapped in the face.

The old lady looked at Lu Youping, who was silent, and felt angry again: "I will get angry when I see you, come on..."

Lu Youping: "..."

He was also a victim. He felt so wronged, but he didn't dare to say anything, let alone just leave.

The old lady leaned on the bed weakly: "I thought that when you came to the capital, you could show off your ambitions and make great achievements. I didn't want you to suffer a disaster before you could establish a foothold. I don't ask for anything else now, I just ask for a family."

Just be safe."

Lu Xiang glanced at Lu Youping and said, "Dad, the Liu family may be targeting you in court recently. The Queen Mother said that Anguo will protect you, so no matter what the Liu family does, you must hold firm."

Lu Youping nodded repeatedly: "Dad understands that if An Guogong does not stand aside and watch, he will feel confident."

Lu Xiang: "Actually, when Lu Mingzhu took refuge with Concubine Shu and I was promoted by the empress, our family was destined to overturn. The empress and Concubine Shu were in conflict with each other for a long time. Instead of causing greater disasters in the future and affecting the entire Lu family, today

This calamity is actually a blessing, at least now with the Queen's blessing, the Lu family will not fall easily."

"Since you have offended Concubine Shu, please don't regret it. After all, you can't have your cake and eat it too. If dad doesn't want to stay in the capital, then he will be demoted and we will stay away from the capital. Then the Liu family will not hold on to him. If

If dad wants to make a career, he must make up his mind early and not play both sides."

Lu Youping looked at Lu Xiang in astonishment, something seemed to burst out of his heart.
