Lu Shixun came to her and said such words, a little beyond Ye Zhen's expectations. She thought that although he was serious and quiet, he should at least be a fair and reasonable person. But now it seemed that he was not. Just because Lu Wushuang didn't like him, he wanted to marry her far away. He must have talked to Lu Shiming about it and was rejected by him. So he came to her, hoping that she would take the initiative to propose leaving the capital.
Ye Zhen shook her head and smiled. What kind of glory did Lu Shixun think Lu Wushuang could bring to the Lu family? His vision was really short-sighted. However, she was grateful that he came to talk to her today. He let her know what kind of person the man in charge of the Lu family's business was.
If the Lu family did not have an imperial concubine, it was estimated that the business would not be as good as before.
It would be much easier for Man Qin to deal with Lu Shixun.
The smile in Ye Zhen's eyes deepened. Her mood was not affected by Lu Shixun. Instead, she was happy because she knew his character.
Back in the house, Ye Zhen hadn't sat down for a cup of tea when Lu Shiming came to her.
"Dad, why are you here?" Ye Zhen asked with a smile and went to fetch the scented tea she had grown herself.
Lu Shiming looked at his daughter seriously. "Yao Yao, did your second uncle come to see you just now?"
Ye Zhen smiled. "Dad, please taste this scented tea I grew myself."
"Dad, I'm talking business with you." Lu Shiming glared at Ye Zhen, took the white porcelain cup from her hand and took a sip. He sighed comfortably. "This tea is good. Bring some to your mother later."
"Okay, Dad can cook some for us in the study." Ye Zhen said. These scented tea were all grown with spirit spring water, which was more fragrant than ordinary scented tea. "Second uncle came to see me just now."
The comfortable expression on Lu Shiming's face immediately turned serious. "What did he say to you? Yao Yao, don't listen to what he said. Just take it as a fart! "
Ye Rou burst into laughter. Lu Shiming was a modest gentleman. He was usually gentle and polite. He had never been so vulgar. It seemed that he was too angry. "Hey, dad, I didn't listen to him. I listened to you."
Lu Shiming looked at his clever daughter and said with a smile, "Your second uncle doesn't have any bad intentions. He just wants to do what's good for the family. However, for the family's good, he can't let you suffer."
"With you here, who can wrong me?" Ye Zhen said with a smile.
"Girl, you change eighteen times between childhood and womanhood. You've changed so much that even I'm a bit shocked. No wonder the concubines in the palace can't tolerate you." Lu Shiming looked at his daughter, who seemed to have changed after returning to the capital, and his heart was filled with emotion.
Ye Zhen curled her lips and said, "Dad, isn't this good for me?"
"Who dares to say anything bad about my daughter?" Lu Shiming glared at her. "Yaoyao, in short, no matter who tells you something, if you don't like it, don't agree. Daddy will make the decision for you."
"Yes, father." Ye Zhen smiled mischievously.
Lu Shiming shook his head and smiled. "I'll go and talk to your second uncle again."
"Dad, don't quarrel with him because of me." Ye Zhen said hurriedly.
"No, Dad has his own sense of propriety." Lu Shiming patted his daughter's head. "You must be tired from taking care of the old lady day and night these two days. Have a good rest."
Ye Zhen nodded with a smile and said yes.
She didn't know what Lu Shiming said to Lu Shixun, but Ye Zhen didn't see her second uncle much in the next few days. Even when she met him at the old lady's place, he still kept a straight face, as if he had forgotten what he had talked to her that day.
Ye Zhen was also happy to pretend that she didn't know anything and went out with Sun Wen to enjoy the plum blossoms.
At the end of winter and the beginning of spring, the plum buds had just bloomed. From a distance, the white flowers were scattered like jade. The large plum blossom forest in Baiyuan Garden was very famous, and many people came here to enjoy the flowers.
Sun Wen invited Ye Zhen and Chen Jinru to come to Baiyuan Garden together, but she didn't expect that there would be so many people here and that they would meet Princess Liu Hua and Gao Xueping.
"It's not good to go out today without looking at the almanac." Sun Wen whispered to Ye Zhen. She hated Gao Xueping the most.
Ye Zhen smiled. "Let's pretend that we didn't see them. They can enjoy their flowers, and we can enjoy our scenery."
Although she said so, the other party didn't seem to think so. When Ye Zhen and the others wanted to walk into the plum blossom forest, Princess Liu Hua had already come over and blocked their way.
"Why do I encounter dirty things everywhere I go? It's really bad luck." Princess Liu Hua swept her handkerchief in front of her nose and looked at Ye Zhen contemptuously.
Ye Zhen smiled faintly and looked at the sky. "It's said that a good dog doesn't stand in the way. I wonder what kind of dog is in the way."
"Lu Yaoyao, how dare you humiliate this princess?" Princess Liu Hua's face changed and she glared at Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen looked at her in surprise. "When did I humiliate the princess?"
From the beginning to the end, she didn't say that she was a dog. Who told her to take the position?
"Lu Yaoyao, don't think that your sharp tongue can make this princess afraid of you!" Princess Liu Hua snorted coldly. "Don't pretend to be innocent. If you can frame Huang Fuxiang, this princess will not let you succeed."
Ye Zhen said faintly, "Princess, what do you want to say?"
Gao Xueping came over and whispered, "Princess, you'd better not lower yourself to the level of this villain. If she goes back and complains, you will be implicated again."
Princess Liu Hua's face darkened and she looked at Ye Zhen viciously. "What did you say in front of the Empress Dowager?"
Ye Zhen looked confused. "Does what I said in front of the Empress Dowager have anything to do with you?"
"Lu Yaoyao, you are despicable and shameless! You slandered me in front of the Empress Dowager and asked her not to let me enter the palace. You want to stop me from entering the palace? Don't even think about it! The emperor has already abandoned Lu Wushuang. No matter what you do, it's useless. " Liu Hua's mouth was fierce, but in fact, she was not sure at all. Clearly, the Empress Dowager had promised to let her enter the palace. Why was there no word from her now?
In what way was she inferior to Lu Wushuang? And that Xu Huiru! Only now did she know that Xu Huiru was simply a little slut. She entered the palace behind her back and became a beauty, and now she was a virtuous concubine.
Ye Zhen simply didn't know how to describe her mood at this time. She held back her laughter. Did Princess Liu Hua think that because she complained in front of the Empress Dowager for Lu Wushuang, she could not enter the palace as a concubine?
"Princess, you really think too much. I am just an insignificant person. How can I influence the Empress Dowager's decision? What's more, whether you can enter the palace or not depends on the Emperor's will. It's not something that can be decided by a few words from others."
Liu Hua didn't believe what Ye Zhen said at all. She felt that Mo Rongzhan must like her, but the Empress Dowager didn't agree. He couldn't let her enter the palace.
