Ling Wenjing leaned back, narrowed her eyes slightly, and said, "If you want to marry me, you should marry me already!"
Lu Qing chuckled: "Then you don't like it?"
"I don't even know whether Miss Shi is round or flat, tell me whether you like her or not!"
Lu Qing immediately answered: "I have seen this little lady Shi! She is very pretty. The key is that she has deep love for you, the eldest son. Even if they find out that you are not a long-lived person, they will
You didn’t back down, and threatened that I wouldn’t marry you unless you were the one! You said this! Speaking of which, the Shi family’s family background is not bad!”
"If you think it's okay, you can marry me!"
"Your Majesty, we don't bring people like this. It's not like you don't know about my family. If I dare to bring someone into my home, even if it's a little maid, I... cough cough cough! Forget it, let's not talk about it. It's all talk.
hatred!"
Ling Wenjing pursed her lips and smiled.
This Lu Qing looks very majestic when handling cases outside.
But if it's against the person in his family.
It wilted immediately!
Ling Wenjing glanced at him and said quietly: "Then let's get down to business!"
Lu Qing coughed, and his face immediately became serious: "The emperor is not well!"
"Why isn't it good?" Ling Wenjing asked quietly.
"The news that came out is that the emperor couldn't sleep the whole night. Not only that, he couldn't eat anything either!"
"how long?"
Lu Qing stretched out his hand and made a gesture.
"A month?"
Lu Qing nodded: "Think about it, the emperor is quite old. Over the past month, he has lost a lot of weight. He looks old and has low energy. In the past half month, he has only been to court a handful of times! That's the hospital.
People on the side talk the most..."
Lu Qing made another gesture.
"Two years?"
Lu Qing gave a thumbs up: "You guessed it right!"
Ling Wenjing raised her hand and frowned, and after a while asked, "What's going on over there, the prince?"
"The prince returned five days ago. As soon as he came back, he entered the palace and talked to the emperor all afternoon."
"Has anyone heard about it?"
Lu Qing shook his head: "Not only our people, but also the Third Prince and Concubine Zhuang's people were not able to spy on it. Only the two of them know the content of this conversation between the Emperor and the Crown Prince."
"Not a single eunuch left behind?"
Lu Qing shook his head: "No one is left. What do you think the father and son will say when they are together?"
Ling Wenjing sat up straight, reached for the tea, took a slow sip, considered it, and then spoke.
"Over the years, the emperor apparently likes the prince, but in fact..."
"You want to say that the emperor values the third prince more? How is this possible?"
"The third prince has not been as outstanding as the prince in recent years! Calculate for yourself, how much credit has the prince given to himself? How much credit has the third prince received in these years? Although... many of the prince's achievements were forced by the emperor from you.
He took it away and gave it to the prince, but in the eyes of the world, this prince is very capable!" Lu Qing said.
Ling Wenjing nodded: "In terms of talent, the prince and the third prince are as good as each other. Have you ever thought about why the emperor praises the prince so highly?"
"Why?"
Ling Wenjing rolled her eyes at Lu Qing: "The higher the praise, the worse the fall, never heard of it! The emperor prefers his youngest son, and Concubine Zhuang is the most favored in the harem. In the eyes of the ministers, the emperor favors
Prince, the prince has been away almost all the time these years, what about the third prince?"
Third prince?
The third prince...
Lu Qing said with some fright: "The third prince has always been in the capital, beside the emperor!"
Ling Wenjing smiled and said: "The third prince has always been in the cabinet, right?"
Lu Qing nodded: "Yes, always there!"
Ling Wenjing smiled casually: "That's right!"
Lu Qing looked at Ling Wenjing: "I understand, more than half of the crown prince's achievements are actually yours. To say that he is capable, it is really not possible to say that he is capable! But the third prince is different. He has been placed in the cabinet by the emperor for so many years. I am afraid that today's
More than half of the people in the cabinet are probably the third prince’s own people!”
Lu Qing tasted the product carefully and clicked his tongue: "The emperor's move is so good! Do you think the emperor doesn't like the prince so much, is it because of the prince's appearance?"
Ling Wenjing sighed softly and said: "Sixty percent! The crown prince's fault is all because of his looks!"
"Is the prince really not the emperor's biological son?" Lu Qing asked with some difficulty.
Ling Wenjing glanced at Lu Qing: "It's true that the prince is the emperor's biological son!"
"Then why is this happening, Your Majesty?" Lu Qing was a little confused.
The prince is the legitimate son and is considered capable, while the mother is also the queen and has a noble status.
Why do you favor the third prince?
Just because Concubine Zhuang is favored?
"Prince, among the three princes and the emperor, who is more like a royal person?" Ling Wenjing asked Lu Qing.
Lu Qing glanced at Ling Wenjing strangely and murmured in a low voice: "Shouldn't you be the prince who is most similar to the emperor?"
Ling Wenjing coughed after hearing this.
Cough cough cough!
Ling Wenjing raised her finger to Lu Qing: "How dare you say such things!"
Lu Qing chuckled: "It's just the two of us. Besides, I'm telling the truth!"
"Stop talking!" Ling Wenjing's face darkened.
Lu Qing raised his hand and slapped his mouth: "Okay, I won't say anything anymore. Can I ask you another thing?"
"Say!" Ling Wenjing said angrily.
"There were rumors a few years ago that you were the Emperor Star. Who did it?" Lu Qing asked.
After hearing this, Ling Wenjing glanced at Lu Qing with a smile: "I'm still thinking about this!"
"Can you not worry about me? This person behind the scenes is too sinister. This kind of thing can be involved in you. What do you think?"
"Want to know?" Ling Wenjing asked.
Lu Qing looked at Ling Wenjing curiously and nodded.
Ling Wenjing sighed and said: "Your Majesty!"
"Ah? How is that possible?"
Ling Wenjing said calmly: "In the past few years, the prince has been keeping a close eye on the third prince! In order to divert the prince's attention, the emperor spread the news that I am the Emperor Star, which can be regarded as giving the prince a target! This rumor has always been
Even now, the prince believes it!"
"Is this why you were injured this time?" Lu Qing asked.
Ling Wenjing shook his head: "The injuries on his body were caused by accidentally entering the Beiyi Army!"
"How many people?" Lu Qing was curious.
"The light cavalry of the Fire Evil King of Beiyi!"
"Ah! You are also..."
Ling Wenjing waved her hands and said: "This matter has passed, let's not mention it for now. The prince's target is me, but he gave the third prince a chance."
Lu Qing clicked his tongue: "The prince is so pitiful! Didn't he make wedding clothes for the third prince? Does the prince know about this?"
"The prince found out later, so every time he did something, the prince would publicize the three points of credit into ten points!"
"Why did the prince do this?"
"Infuriating Concubine Zhuang!"
"Provoking Concubine Zhuang to chaos?" Lu Qing couldn't help frowning.
Ling Wenjing nodded.
Lu Qing thought for a while, then slapped his thigh: "Oh, so this time the third prince went to Chang Ning Mansion, it was Concubine Zhuang who asked for it?"
Ling Wenjing nodded.
The two of them looked at each other, and Lu Qing raised his eyebrows and said, "Then the third prince's trip to the capital this time will be very bad!"
"You have to shed your skin even if you don't die!"
"Concubine Zhuang has harmed the third prince! After protecting the emperor for so many years, is it possible that she really has to fall short?" Lu Qing looked at Ling Wenjing, his eyes flickered, and he hid a word in his heart.
'Maybe this is also an opportunity for the prince.'
