Daming heir

Chapter 126 Lu's Ambition

Zhu Yunqi still showed worry on his face, looked up at his mother and concubine, and said in a low voice: "But father... but the third child..."

Hearing Zhu Yunxuan mentioning Zhu Yunxie, Lu's eyes suddenly changed.

In a place that Zhu Yunqi hadn't noticed, a sharp streak flashed across Lu's eyes.

Then he stepped forward with a soft smile, opened his arms and hugged Zhu Yunqi in his arms, and gently stroked Zhu Yunqi's head with his palms.

"Yun Wen, even if something big happens, the concubine mother will never let anything happen to you!"

Because the prince fell into a coma due to illness, after Zhu Yunwen got the news today, he was worried and anxious all the time.

At this time, being held in the arms of the concubine mother, it was as if I was back in my childhood, when I fell and was injured and was wronged, and was held in the concubine mother's arms when I kept crying.

Feeling the familiar smell from his mother and concubine, Zhu Yunqi finally felt at ease gradually.

Lu Shi took the opportunity to let go of Zhu Yunqi, patted his head, and turned away with the old mother.

The Lu family only brought the old man who was married into the palace as a dowry at the beginning, avoiding the attention of most people in the palace, and quietly left the East Palace.

The two walked all the way to the Queen of the East Palace.

When they got to a place where no one was around, Lu finally said in a low voice, "Has the news passed?"

The old woman whispered: "If you go back to your mother, Zhou Huwei is already waiting for you."

Mrs. Lu nodded, but stopped suddenly.

She bit her cherry lips lightly, hesitated to speak, and her face was a bit tangled.

The old woman looked at Lu's expression, and said: "Your Majesty, are you hesitating?"

Lu said: "I know that if I don't do anything, Yun Wen will live in the shadow of that person forever in my life. But... But if I take this step, I will have no way back. also possible……"

The old woman's complexion sank, and she said: "Your Majesty, this is the end of the matter, that is, if your Majesty does not take this step today. But after all, the paper can't contain the flames. If what your Majesty did before is found out, your Majesty and the Second Master will fight together." Are you okay?"

There was still some hesitation on Lu's face.

The old woman continued: "Your Majesty, have you forgotten what you have always dreamed of?"

"I haven't forgotten!"

Mrs. Lu turned her head, stared at the old woman, and then sighed: "Yun Wei must sit in that seat! The empress, empress dowager, and grand empress dowager of the Ming Dynasty can only be me! Yun Wen will also become a great Ming Lord of the dynasty!"

At this moment, Lu's ambition was fully exposed.

The old woman smiled silently, and stepped forward to push Lu Shi: "Your Majesty, the situation of the Crown Prince is unknown, His Majesty's Holy Body is in trouble, and the third child is far away in Central Capital. This is your last chance!"

As she spoke, the old woman pushed Mrs. Lu to turn forward.

Behind the many green shades, there is a vague general in the uniform of the imperial guards, who is hiding behind anxiously.

Lu's eyes flickered and looked over, feeling a little flustered in her heart. Under the constant comfort of the old woman, she took a deep breath and took a step forward.

"At the end, I will see the crown princess!"

"The crown princess is blessed and safe!"

Zhou Ji, the son of Jiang Xiahou and the personal guard of the imperial army, was on one knee, clasped his fists with both hands, held his head high, and his eyes swept across Lu's body obsessively and hotly.

Finally, it stopped on Lu Shi's bright eyes, the fiery eager, almost scorching Lu Shi subconsciously moved and stared.

"Get up now."

Zhou Ji suppressed the desire in his heart, and taking the opportunity of getting up, he couldn't help taking a step forward, narrowing the distance between him and the princess.

Lu's heart tightened almost subconsciously, and she was about to retreat, but she saw the old nanny who was hiding in the dark, watching and vigilant for herself, looking at her.

Only then did Mrs. Lu stop her back steps, suppress her feelings for the prince, and raised her head to meet Zhou Ji's increasingly hot eyes.

She took a deep breath, and said with a trembling voice: "Your Majesty is getting old now, the prince is unexpectedly seriously ill, unconscious, and the country is in turmoil. Every time I think of it now, my heart is full..."

boom!
Zhou Ji could no longer suppress the possessive desire in his heart, and overcame many restrictions, he tightly grasped Lu's hands with both hands.

He gently pulled his hands towards him, and Lu immediately stepped forward unsteadily, and the two of them were close to touching each other in the blink of an eye.

Zhou Ji said in a deep voice: "Mother, I am willing to go through fire and water for my mother! Now that the country is in trouble, and the situation between Your Majesty and the Crown Prince is unknown, I am willing to swear to the death to protect and assist the second master!"

Ever since Lu married into the royal family, he has never experienced such things that have violated the prohibition, and his heart is flustered, only Zhou Ji's voice continues to radiate into his ears.

"If your majesty and the crown prince are serious... no! As long as the empress speaks, I will take the supreme position for the second master! I only hope that I can always be by my empress's side and serve my empress."

Lu's heart beat faster and faster.

She almost squeezed her voice out of her throat: "Well... Zhou Jiang... Zhou Lang has taken care of you. With you here, I... I can't repay you..."

After faltering and hawing, almost the whole of Lu's body was trembling.

She has witnessed with her own eyes that Yun Wen has been praised by the emperor many times, to now Zhu Yunxi County Guohuai You, Guan Zheng and the government, and now he is engaged to Xin Guo Gongfu.

She knew very well that her own son, if there were no accidents, would have no fate with the throne of the Ming Dynasty in this life.

She is not reconciled.

The sudden change in just a few months made it impossible for her to adapt.

This is her last chance, and she must not let this opportunity slip away from her.

"Um……"

Lu replied.

A deep voice came from Lu's throat.

Lu's eyes were closed tightly, and his eyelashes were trembling uncontrollably.

……

"What news do I want?"

In the Zhongji Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang's complexion was not very good, but his body was not as ill as the rumors outside said. He just reclined tiredly on the soft couch, looking at Jiang Yu, the commander of Jinyiwei who was kneeling in front of him.

Not far away, Shan Yongnian, the envoy of the imperial hospital, led several imperial physicians. After preparing a prescription for the emperor to regulate the body and nourish qi and blood, he sat dryly by the side and accompanied the emperor to finish the play.

Jiang Yu lowered his head, recalling all the reactions that took place in Yingtian City in the past few hours.

Following the news that the crown prince was seriously ill, and the news that the emperor's holy body was ill, there was quite a commotion in Yingtian City.

Countless people are secretly speculating about the future direction of the Ming Dynasty.

Jiang Yu tried his best to make it short and clear, and replied in a low voice.

"In the army, there are five military governors' mansions and several lords sitting in town, so it's very quiet at the moment."

"There are only some voices coming from the court, it seems to be worrying, if the crown prince...if..."

Zhu Yuanzhang took the medicinal soup that nourishes qi and blood, and his face became more bloody.

Seeing Jiang Yu faltering, he snorted coldly.

"They are worried that the crown prince will die!"
