When Ye Zhen returned to the Lu family, it was already dark. She did not go back to her room first, but went to the upper room to see the old lady. Before she entered the room, she heard the voice of Mrs Liu, full of righteous indignation. [For more exciting stories, please visit]
"Mother, you don't know what kind of virtue that little bitch has. I went to see her in person, but she dared to give me face. I am still her mother. What does she mean? She was able to become the Marquis's wife because of me. I just wanted her to help her brother. Do you know what she said? "Mrs Liu's voice was sharp and full of anger.
Old Madam Lu did not speak, only Mrs Liu continued to cry, "She actually told me to go back and not to go to her again, so as not to implicate her. She also said that I ruined her life. Even if she died, she would not ask Liang Chun to help her. Mother, what's the use of such a daughter? Master doted on them so much, but now she doesn't even help her own family. "
"Yan Zhi has left the capital. What's the use of looking for Fang? Although Liang Chun is a Marquis, he has no official position. Can he help Yan Zhi? "Old Madam Lu leaned on the big pillow and listened to Mrs Liu's complaints. She just responded indifferently.
Mrs Liu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief. "Mother, I'm doing this for Yan Zhi. Winter is coming. How many days can Yan Zhi have in the territory? He is not a Marquis, nor is he a general. Will those people respect him? When I think of him in that kind of place, I feel like my heart is being cut by a knife. I can only go to Fang to find a way. Who knew that Fang actually … "
"Shiming has lived in the border town for more than ten years, and I have not heard them say anything bad." Old Madam Lu said, "The emperor is angry. It's useless to ask anyone to plead."
"That depends on who you ask. Mother, isn't it said that Yao Yao's fate is precious and she will be the mother of a country in the future? You let Yao Yao plead with the emperor. " In her opinion, the third branch owed her too much. Even if Yaoyao's life was used to exchange for her son's marquis title, it was only right. What was wrong with asking Yaoyao to plead for her son?
Old Madam Lu looked at her with a sneer. "Don't say it as if you are the only one who cares about Yan Zhi. If she can plead, will Yao Yao not plead?"
"What else can we do? Did Yan Zhi really go to Border City? When will he come back? " The Liu matriarch shrieked. She couldn't bear to see the third branch living a good life, especially when she heard that Yaoyao would become the empress. She wanted nothing more than to tear Lu Yaoyao apart.
The empress should have been her daughter. If not for Lu Yaoyao, would her Shuang 'er have ended up like this?
Old Madam Lu closed her eyes and waved her hand tiredly. "Go back. Don't go out again without my permission."
"Mother, I'm the Lu Family's First Madam. How can you treat me like this?"
"When you learn not to cause trouble for the family, then you can go out and be the First Madam of Lu," Old Madam Lu said lazily. "Go back, I'm tired."
Mrs. Liu looked at Old Madam Lu's tired appearance. Many dissatisfied words were stuck in her heart. She only felt that Old Madam Lu was biased. Otherwise, how could the third branch have such a good life today.
"Mother, then I'll go first." Mrs. Liu stood up, turned around and left the room.
When she saw Ye Zhen at the door, her face suddenly turned black, and she snorted coldly. "If you still have a little conscience, you should go and plead with the emperor to spare your eldest brother's suffering in Border City. A man can't only care about his own glory and wealth."
Ye Zhen grinned. "Aunt, unfortunately, I am a heartless person. I've let you down."
Mrs. Liu was so angry that she almost spat out a mouthful of blood. She had never seen such a shameless person who dared to admit that she was a heartless person.
"Aunt, I won't see you off." Ye Zhen smiled and walked past her into the room.
"Look at who these people are!" Mrs. Liu shouted angrily.
Chen Yue glanced at her lightly. "First Madam, take care."
"Good, good, a group of snobs!" Mrs. Liu angrily stepped on the floral cloth and left the room.
Ye Zhen smiled and sat with Old Madam Lu. "Grandmother, I just made Aunt angry."
Old Madam Lu sighed. "She just can't understand. You don't have to worry about her."
"Grandmother, I asked the emperor today. Eldest brother, he … his crime is too great. Even if I want to plead, I can't." Ye Zhen whispered. They all knew that Lu Lingzhi had committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, but there was no specific reason why he had deceived the emperor.
"Tell grandmother, what is the reason?" Old Madam Lu sat up straight.
Ye Zhen bit her lip. If she didn't tell Old Madam Lu, she would probably blame herself for not interceding for Lu Lingzhi. "It's about Shuang 'er."
Old Madam Lu's face sank slightly, and she fell on the big pillow. "I should have guessed that Shuang 'er must still be alive."
"Grandmother, how did you guess?" Ye Zhen looked at the old lady in surprise. Her guess was too accurate.
"I can't think of anyone else who can make Yan Zhi let go of the crime of deceiving the emperor except for Shuang 'er. I think this matter has something to do with Mrs. Liu. The mother and daughter really hurt Yan Zhi." Old Madam Lu scolded angrily.
Ye Zhen said softly, "When the emperor calms down, he will naturally let eldest brother come back."
"It seems that the emperor is very merciful. Otherwise, I am afraid that our Lu family will be confiscated. This matter … You and I know it. Don't leak it out." The emperor's secret crime of Yan Zhi was probably to protect the Lu family.
If Yao Yao was not born in the Lu family, would the emperor still be so merciful?
"Grandmother, I'll make you some tranquilizing tea. Would you like to drink it before going to sleep?" Ye Zhen said in a low voice, "You can rest assured that I know what to say and what not to say."
Old Madam Lu nodded with a smile, "Just let the maid cook the medicine. You stay here and talk with me."
"Others don't cook as well as I do. Grandmother, please wait for me for a moment." Ye Zhen smiled and went to the small kitchen to cook the tranquilizing medicine. By the way, she put in a drop of spirit spring water. In her heart, she hoped that Old Madam Lu could live a long life.
After talking with the old lady for a while, Ye Zhen left the room until she fell asleep.
Hearing that Lu Lingzhi had left the capital, she actually felt a little unreal. Would he really go to the Border Town? If he went to the Border Town, without Mo Rongzhan's decree, he would never come back in this life.
Ye Zhen went back to the house and no longer thought about Lu Lingzhi's fate. She took out the grass and tortoise shell. When she went to Zhao Island with Huang Fuchen, she learned a lot of methods of divination and also learned to calculate the eight characters.
She wanted to calculate the eight characters for Mo Rongzhan. She didn't believe that his eight characters were so coincidental, just like the rumors said.
