The Lu family in the capital city. (
Lu Shiming stood outside the upper room with a solemn expression and deep worry in his eyes. Mrs. Pei stood behind him, her eyes a little swollen from crying.
"Third brother, mother doesn't want to see you. You should go back first." The person who spoke was Lu Shixun, who had just returned from Jinkou City. He frowned at Lu Shiming and said in a reproachful tone, "Your third branch has made mother so angry. Why don't you let mother vent her anger?"
Lu Shiming said, "We only want mother to calm down."
Lu Shixun said in a low voice, "Your daughter is not the daughter of the Lu family. You didn't explain this matter clearly from the beginning. Now it has become like this. How do you think mother can calm down?"
"We have never treated Yaoyao as an outsider. She is like our own daughter. We never felt that we needed to explain anything about this matter." Lu Shiming said. He stood here only hoping that Madame would calm down. As for him breaking off relations with Yaoyao … that was impossible.
"Daughter?" Lu Shiming sneered, "If it weren't for her, would Shuang 'er end up like this? If it weren't for her, would Yanzhi be exiled to the Wilderness? Our Lu family is where we are today because we raised such an ingrate. Do you still treat her as your daughter? Does she treat you as her father? "
Lu Shiming said coldly, "Is it Yaoyao's fault that Shuang poisoned the imperial concubines and Yanzhi deceived the emperor? She came to the capital city more than a year ago. How could a little girl have the ability to make a marquis and an imperial concubine commit such a big crime? "
"If she didn't have the ability, how could she become the empress?" Lu Shixun sneered, "I'm afraid that as a father, you don't know what kind of person she is!"
"We know very well what kind of person our daughter is! You don't have to blame her for the current situation of the Lu family. "Mrs. Pei said with red eyes.
Lu Shixun snorted, "Madame is already so sick, and you still protect her. Go, don't make Madame more angry!"
"We will come to pay our respects to mother later." Lu Shiming said lightly and took Mrs. Pei's hand to leave.
Mrs. Wang walked out of the room and looked coldly at the back of Lu Shiming and his wife. "Master, Third Uncle is a Hanlin Scholar. What if we offend him?"
"Even if he is a Hanlin, so what?" Lu Shixun coldly snorted, "His daughter is an orphan of the Ye Family. How many people in the imperial court hate the surnamed Ye? He raised the Ye Family's daughter, do you think the emperor would value him?"
"But didn't His Majesty decree Yaoyao to be empress?" Madam Wang asked in a small voice. "If Yaoyao really becomes empress, then third uncle will be the country's father-in-law."
Lu Shixun snorted disdainfully, "That's because the Emperor didn't know of her birth before. Now that he knows everything, how can he let her be the Empress again?"
"Then … what should we do now?" Madam Wang lowered her voice and asked, "The business in Jinkou City is not good, and the family doesn't know about it. If Old Madam knows about it, I'm afraid she will faint again."
"I can't talk about this for the time being!" Lu Shixun immediately said, "Be careful with what you say."
Madam Wang nodded. "I know what's important."
"Go in and look after Mother." Lu Shixun said.
The couple walked back into the room and didn't find Lu Jing, who had been standing in the corner without making a sound.
Lu Jing looked at their backs and revealed a dark and cold smile. She didn't think that Lu Yaoyao wasn't a daughter of the Lu Family, and even more so that she was the niece of the treacherous official Ye Yisong. She had thought that Lu Yaoyao would be the mother of the nation in the future, but with this kind of birth, it was hard to say whether she would be able to keep her life. What goes around comes around, and she couldn't wait to see Lu Yaoyao destitute and helpless.
So what if she was beautiful? So what if she was made empress? Nothing was set in stone, and she didn't know what would happen.
She, Lu Jing, had been under Lu Yaoyao's shadow for so long, and she could finally get rid of it.
"Jing 'er, why are you standing outside?" Lu Fang walked in from outside and saw Lu Jing standing under the eaves in a daze, so she walked over.
"Second sister, why are you here?" When Lu Jing saw her, a smile appeared on her face. Now that the Lu Family was no longer the Marquis's Mansion, and Lu Fang was still the Marquis's wife, Lu Jing no longer dared to be arrogant in front of her.
Lu Fang smiled, "I heard that the Old Madam was not feeling well, so I came to see her."
"Let me go in with you." Lu Jing took Lu Fang's hand, "My father and mother are inside. The Old Madam fainted because she knew about Yaoyao's birth."
"Yaoyao's birth?" Lu Fang raised her eyebrows and smiled. She didn't forget what Lu Yaoyao said to her yesterday. Now that she finally had a chance to vent her anger, how could she miss it easily? "I also heard some rumors that Lu Yaoyao ran away from the marriage because she is not the daughter of Third Uncle. It seems to have something to do with the Ye Family."
Lu Jing nodded, "Yes, she is Ye Zhen's sister."
"Really?" Lu Fang-er was shocked. "Aren't you trying to kill my Lu family? Wouldn't the emperor regard our Lu Family as a thorn in his side if we keep such an evil creature? No wonder the eldest brother was exiled. It must be the emperor's anger. "
"I don't know what to do now." Lu Jing sighed softly. When she was sent to Jinkou City, she learned that the Lu Family's business was not as good as it used to be. Because of her father's wrong decision, the whole Lu Family's merchant ship went wrong, and a large number of goods were lost. The Lu Family was no longer the richest family in the capital, and it was impossible to live a luxurious life as before. It was believed that everyone in the Lu Family was extremely uncomfortable.
The corners of Lu Fang's mouth rose high, "It will get better."
Wasn't this the Lu Family's retribution? The Old Madam's two favorite grandchildren, one was exiled to the wilderness, and the other was not the Lu Family's own daughter. How ironic and ridiculous it was! Lu Fang felt extremely refreshed in her heart.
"Go in." Lu Jing glanced at Lu Fang, motioning her not to say anything more.
Old Madam Lu was lying on the couch with a sallow face. She looked a lot thinner than before, as if she had suddenly aged more than ten years. Lu Fang wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, "Grandmother, you have to take care of yourself."
"Fang 'er is here." Lu Shixun's attitude towards Lu Fang was much more polite, and he immediately ordered the maid to bring a low stool to the side of the bed.
"Second Uncle, Second Aunt." Lu Fang nodded gently, "How did grandmother become like this?"
Wang sighed, thinking that a concubine's daughter had the best life. Although the Liang Family was not very prominent, she was still a Marquis's wife. Thinking of Lu Wushuang and Lu Yaoyao, which of them could not be compared to Fang 'er now? Thinking of this, the expression on her face became more sincere, "It's not for people to anger me."
