Chapter 343 Sugar-Coated Cannonballs

Chapter 29

"Is there anything else going on in the Zhao Mansion?" Lu Songli asked casually.

"Mrs. Zhao went to the Chang'an Yamen in a rage, and the Chang'an Order sent people to arrest many people who gossiped."

When Lu Songli heard this, she was surprised. Why did the Zhao family take such a step? Didn't Zhao Yutan tell Zhao Wenkuan that he had anticipated their follow-up plan yesterday?

Lu Songli looked at her father, and the father and daughter looked at each other. Lu Desheng understood her surprise, and now he was a little confused about what the Zhao family was doing. There must be something going on that they didn't know about.

However, he listened to his daughter's suggestion last night and evacuated all their people. After the Zhao family did this, you will know who they caught. Now it's a good show, haha.

Lu Songli didn't know that Zhao Yutan was so upset after seeing her back that she didn't tell her father the details of her conversation with him. As for Guo Yan, she didn't enter Zhao's house, but went home directly.

When I saw Zhao Wenkuan, my uncle, I naturally had no way of telling him.

Therefore, Zhao Wenkuan only thought that his daughter's meeting with Lu Songli was just a formality. He had no idea that Lu Songli had become a prophet and had already anticipated their subsequent plans.

At this time, as Lu Desheng and Lu Songli expected, Zhao Wenkuan was indeed confused.

Everything was going according to plan. Today, I asked my wife to go to Chang'an Yamen, which was also part of the plan. I wanted to take the opportunity to deal with the people Lu Desheng was raising. The group of people in his hands were guided by their Zhao family.

When it came to public opinion, he also ended up fishing in troubled waters, and the news he made was quite disgusting to the Zhao family.

He operated as fiercely as a tiger, thinking that he could catch the most cheerful talkers under Lu Desheng's hands and teach him a little lesson.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the Chang'an Yamen put the captured people into prison, the people below sent a message to the Zhao Mansion, saying that the Yamen had arrested one of their people. He had to arrange for someone to make a trip. His people arrived at the Yamen and took a closer look.

Look, all the people they caught were mouths supported by their Zhao family! When the news came back, he was so angry. Each one of them failed more than failed. Didn't he tell them to keep a low profile these days and stop taking the lead? Lu Desheng was shocked by the news.

Wouldn’t it be great if someone else did it?!

The people below also had troubles that they couldn't tell. They did try their best to keep a low profile, but the Lu family's gang just disappeared. Didn't this still expose themselves?

On the Lu family's side, discussions about Zhao Yutan's suicide are still continuing, and they are speculating on the next development.

"Zhao Yutan is forcing her to die. Will the Zhao family or the Xie family come to us directly to talk about breaking off the engagement?" Mrs. Jiang was very upset when she thought of this.

Lu Desheng snorted coldly, "Does the Zhao family dare to come to the door? Does he have the face?" The Xie family didn't have the shame to mention this matter directly. Before, they only dared to mention it tactfully. Both families were too shameless.

The Lu family is not the one who is anxious now. The Lu family is sitting firmly on Diaoyutai and will not take the initiative to push forward this matter. Then doesn’t the matter come to a standstill here?

Lu Songli said nothing. The situation was actually very clear, just as her parents discussed. After the Zhao family used Zhao Yutan's reputation and her suicide to occupy the position of innocence, the whole situation froze. Because the Zhao family took over

It is absolutely impossible to take the initiative to attack openly. The Xie family cannot move either. In this matter, the Xie family can only passively accept it. They can move secretly, but they cannot move openly. The Lu family does not want to move. Already

The Qin family, which had broken off their engagement with the Zhao family, has been marginalized in this matter and has little impact at all times.

In this stalemate situation, if the Zhao family still wants to achieve their goals, they must join a third party, that is, a referee. This referee must be biased towards the Zhao family, and can give them Zhao Xielu and even the Qin family someone to make the decision.

There are only a handful of people who can make decisions for the four families of Zhao, Xie, Lu and Qin. Lu Songli calculated it over and over again, but it was only three people. They were the emperor, the queen mother and the empress. It should not be possible for the emperor,

The emperor favored her father, and Zhao Wenkuan was ashamed of himself, so the decision could only be made between the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother.

Lu Songli personally preferred that the Zhao family would choose the Queen Mother. Firstly, the Queen Mother did not like her father, and secondly, in comparison, the Queen Mother was the emperor's biological mother, occupying a high position of filial piety, and could compete with the emperor better than the queen. For some small things, the emperor

It is also easier to compromise with the Queen Mother.

In addition, the Empress would not want to get involved in this muddy water. After all, she has a son. As long as she has some ideas about the throne, her father, a neutral faction who is only loyal to the emperor, would not want to offend him even if he could not win over her.

.

After thinking about this, Lu Songli also had some concerns in her heart.

Zhao Yutan is currently in a coma. When she wakes up, there should be a breakthrough in this matter. Moreover, she has a hunch that the conclusion will be almost final by then.

Then Lu Songli should eat and drink. As for her inference, she didn't say it out loud to make the two elders upset. Her father should be able to guess it, and both father and daughter had a tacit understanding not to mention it.

"Mom and dad, let's not talk about these troublesome things. No matter what, we, the Lu family, are the ones who take the right measures and cannot bear the loss." Immediately afterwards, Lu Songli mentioned an interesting thing that happened in the Xu family yesterday. Because

Her eldest sister complained to her that all three of her children were boys. She casually comforted her that her son was fine. Her little nephew heard this and thought she liked her son. The cute little nephew wanted to secretly give her this little brother.

Aunt.

When Jiang heard this, she laughed so much that Lu Desheng couldn't help laughing.

Speaking of her eldest sister, Lu Songli asked about her eldest brother Lu Zhiyuan, "Mom, it's been some time since my eldest brother accompanied my eldest sister-in-law back to her parents' home, right?"

Ms. Jiang counted the days and said, "Well, I'm a little older now. It's said that your eldest sister-in-law's mother fell down. Her father took her eldest brother out to look at medicinal materials. The younger brothers and sisters at home are not very old, and something happened to them.

I don’t know how to deal with it, so your sister-in-law brought your eldest brother with her, which will come in handy."

"He just heard about your matter and asked Tian An to come back. Your father and I wanted Tian An to go back and tell him so that he could feel at ease and settle the matter at his mother-in-law's house.

Come back. Your father and I will take care of your affairs, there is no need for him."

Lu Songli nodded, Tian An was her elder brother's long-term follower, equivalent to her right and left hand.

"Did my mother-in-law fall seriously?"

"I heard from Tian An that it's quite serious."

"Mom, how about I go to Ping'an Town to see my eldest brother and sister-in-law?" Lu Songli thought. Her eldest sister-in-law's family is a medicine merchant. She wanted to go there to see if there were any opportunities to make money. Firstly, she wanted to make some money for her family.

Secondly, I also want to enrich my own small treasury. The Lu family has a small financial background. Although her father often receives rewards from the emperor, the expenses are also high, and unlike other official families, there are elders in the clan to supplement them. The specific method of how to operate has not yet been decided.

Let’s first take a look at the size of Shen’s medicinal material shop.

Ms. Jiang thought for a while and said, "That's okay. It's time to go out and relax. But you have to wait and see if the weather is good before you go out."
