Zhumen Chunshen

Chapter 270
Because of this matter, Lu Fangzheng was explained by the Queen Mother Xuanjin to the palace. He was troubled in his heart. After hearing Lu Rong's words, he couldn't help being even more troubled. After reprimanding Lu Ying, he ordered her to be placed under house arrest and let Lu Fang Rong looked after her carefully, don't let her go out to mess around again, and don't allow her subordinates to mess around outside.

Lu Fang felt that his beloved daughter Lu Rong's words were quite reasonable, and he believed it deeply, so he launched a powerful offensive against Shen Quan. His nephews, relatives, friends, disciples, colleagues, and seniors all went through countless avenues to be lobbyists, but Shen Quan had no choice but to It's just that oil and salt don't enter.They simply hid in the barracks on the grounds that they were busy with business, but none of them disappeared.If you really can't push it, you will catch people drinking when you meet, and you won't give people a chance to speak at all.

Lu Fang ordered his son Lu Xianchang to go out in person, and formally posted a post to invite Shen Quan Restaurant to the banquet.

Shen Quan came to the banquet, but still refused, the reason is that he doesn't like unruly women, and he doesn't like Lu Ying!Lu Xianchang immediately said that there are many gentle and gentle women in the Lu family who can be good matches.Shen Quan still shook his head, if he didn't marry Lu Ying, how would he dare to marry another woman from the Lu family?I feel awkward even after marrying her!Lu Xianchang was so angry that his chest felt tight, but there was nothing he could do about him.Shen Quan saw that Lu Xianchang's face was ugly, so he patted him on the shoulder and laughed loudly, "If I don't marry your girl, I can't drink with you? Let's drink as much as we have!" Lu Xianchang saw that he didn't treat the Lu family because of this matter He felt at ease about what thoughts he had or something, and with his confidantes and confidants covering up the past, he pressed the matter and did not mention it. Everyone was drunk, but Lu Xianchang was so drunk that someone carried him back!
When Lu Ying heard the news, she was furious.Although she can't go out, she has many useful people outside.After making a few small moves, Lu Rong secretly sabotaged them.Lu Ying gritted her teeth with hatred, but there was nothing she could do about her sister who had acted on her father's orders.

Faintly hearing the news that her father and elder brothers were about to give up on this matter, Lu Ying was suddenly startled, angry and anxious. After much deliberation, she thought of the Empress Dowager Lu.Lu Rong didn't notice for a while, and let her escape.

After listening to Lu Ying's cry, the Empress Dowager Lu's face was very ugly, she smashed a tea bowl on the spot and yelled at King Zhenxi, so that the eunuchs and maids who were serving did not dare to show their anger.

The matter was faintly spread outside the palace, and the problem that seemed to be easily solved suddenly became tense again. Even Lu Fang and others dared not say anything for a while when they were uncertain about the queen mother's intentions.

Originally, the purpose of marriage is to win over. If the win over fails and they become enemies instead, then the loss outweighs the gain.Since Shen Quan didn't hold grudges against the Lu family because of Lu Ying's nonsense, it means that even if they don't get married, they still have friends to be.That being the case, how about taking a step back for now?After a while, when the matter subsides, if one of the side branch women of the Lu family is selected to marry Shen Quan as a concubine with outstanding looks and understanding, isn't it the same marriage?

Unexpectedly, there was another news that the Queen Mother was furious.

The female officer in the palace personally sent Lu Ying back to the mansion, and passed on the Queen Mother's oral order, saying that the Lord Pingjin is a girl's family after all, and Master Lu's discipline is discipline, and it should be appropriate, don't be too harsh.Besides, Lord Weng has learned his lesson and will not act impulsively again, Lord Lu will spare her this time!

Lu Fang had nothing to say, and dared not even say it, so he had to spare Lu Ying from house arrest.Lu Ying was so proud that even her parents held grudges, so she found trouble with Lu Rong and killed her beloved puppy that day.Lu Rong dared not speak out, and went back to the house with red eyes.

This was clearly slapping Lu Fang in the face.Lu Xin was very angry, and never liked this daughter even more.

After Yao Cunhui got the news over and over again, her heart that had just settled down a little bit in the past two days was tightened again!
Although the development of things is very different from the previous life, but one thing has not changed, and that is the influence of the Queen Mother!Just a word from the Queen Mother can change the fate of all of them!Maybe Shen Quan——

Yao Cunhui lost his composure, and his firm heart couldn't help but shake a little.Maybe Lu Rong is right, as long as she is willing to take a step back, everyone will be happy!As long as she takes a step back, all problems will be solved...

On this day, when Yao Cunhui was suffering in his heart, suddenly Hong Liao received a letter and came in. Yao Cunhui opened it desperately, his face changed suddenly, and his hands and feet trembled uncontrollably.

The letter was written by Shen Quan's mother Xiao Shi, and Xiao Shi asked her to go out to the teahouse to meet her right now.

An ominous premonition suddenly rose in Yao Cunhui's heart, his heart jumped up, and he hurriedly changed his clothes and went out.

As soon as they met, Yao Cunhui didn't have time to call "Mrs. Xiao", Xiao's eyes were full of tears, and she said sadly: "Miss Yao, you are still sitting at home, do you know where my son is now?"

"Ma'am, what happened!" Yao Cunhui's face turned pale, as if falling into an ice cellar.

Mrs. Xiao stared at her resentfully, wiped away tears and said: "My son entered the palace the day before yesterday and has not returned yet. I sent someone to inquire about the news but found nothing. I don't know what happened to him in the palace! Miss Yao, if My son has three good things and two bad things, I, I absolutely can't forgive you! Why can't you take a step back? You have to die to be reconciled!"

Mrs. Xiao covered her face and wept bitterly.

Yao Cunhui felt dizzy for a while, his eyes darkened, and his heart became cold little by little: Here we come, finally here we come!

Shen Quan finally confronted the Queen Mother head-on!

What Xiao Shi said is not wrong, it's all her fault, it's all her naivety's fault!Too obsessed!If she had backed off a step earlier, perhaps things would not have developed to where they are today!

"Mrs. Xiao," Yao Cunhui said with a pale face, licked her dry lips, "no news may be good news, at least, there is still room for things to turn around. This is all my fault. Let it go, it's all my fault, I'm going to see the queen mother and confess to the queen mother. Don't worry, Mrs. Xiao, I know what to do!"

"You, can you enter the palace?" Xiao Shi asked hesitantly, wiping away his tears.

Yao Cunhui smiled wryly, "Don't worry, I have a golden hairpin from the queen mother, I think the palace people will pass it on to me! If the queen mother still refuses to see her, I will have the audacity to beg to kiss the old prince again!"

Xiao Shi stayed silent for a while.

Yao Cunhui blessed her, turned and left resolutely.

Yao Cunhui waited outside the palace gate for more than an hour, and finally the eunuch who passed the decree came, saying that the Queen Mother had summoned him.Yao Cunhui was overjoyed, she quickly collected herself, calmed down, and followed the little eunuch with her head down.

Empress Dowager Lu summoned her in a quiet and elegant pavilion in the back garden.Wearing a bright yellow phoenix robe, six ruyi-headed carved luan phoenix inlaid gold hairpins are inserted on the left and right sides of the graceful temples, the long eyebrows fly obliquely into the temples, the phoenix eyes are shining brightly, and the face is calm and majestic without anger.

Under the guidance of the little eunuch, Yao Cunhui knelt down and bowed his head about three or four meters away from the Empress Dowager, but the Empress Dowager Lu raised her hand, and said in a calm voice without the slightest ups and downs: "Come closer, so you don't have to worry about talking!"

The little eunuch bowed and silently agreed, and led Yao Cunhui forward a few more steps, until the corner of the bright yellow embroidered robe could be seen shaking under the eyelids, the little eunuch signaled her to stop.

"Yao Cunhui, the daughter of the people, is meeting the Queen Mother! The Queen Mother is a thousand years old!" Yao Cunhui kowtowed.

"You are Yao Cunhui?" A majestic voice sounded above his head. Even though he didn't look up, Yao Cunhui still felt two sharp eyes falling on him directly, like needles on his back, making him uneasy.

Yao Cunhui didn't dare to raise her head, her lips moved lightly just as she was about to answer, the Empress Dowager Lu had already continued: "The Ai family has heard your name and praised you. I didn't expect you to be so young and good-looking. No wonder Shen Quan would do everything for you." Ken gave up!"

Empress Dowager Lu hinted at ridicule and sneered slightly.

Yao Cunhui felt his back was icy cold, and his heart was beating wildly, almost jumping out of his throat.What is imperial power, what is the majesty of the royal family, what is the wrath of the emperor, today she really understands it!

In the face of the supreme imperial power, how powerless all personal strength and confrontation appear!
At this moment, she clearly felt that she was like a grain of sand in front of Empress Dowager Lu, and one breath from Empress Dowager Lu was enough to wipe herself out.

"Queen Mother! It's the Minnv who made a mistake, it's the Minnv who is greedy for glory and wants to climb the big tree of King Zhenxi! The Minnv is convicted, and the Minnv dare not dream anymore!"

"You came here to excuse Shen Quan?" Empress Dowager Lu's words were very sharp, and the faint sarcasm in her tone pierced Yao Cunhui's heart like the tip of a needle, "I can't tell, but you are a kind and righteous person!"

Yao Cunhui smiled wryly, she never thought that Empress Dowager Lu was such a straightforward person.That's good too, so that she won't have to spend all her time trying to figure out how to make her words sound more dignified. Since Empress Dowager Lu likes to be straightforward, let's be straightforward!Anyway, now that she has stepped into this place, whether it is life or death, honor or disgrace, she is no longer in the position to make decisions. Everything depends on the Queen Mother Lu's will, regardless of right or wrong!

"The daughter of the people will not marry the King of Zhenxi, and she will not marry after she dies. I beg the Queen Mother to forgive him!" Yao Cunhui expressed his heart directly.

"Hmph!" Empress Dowager Lu sneered, "If you don't marry him, Aijia should forgive him? Where did this start, but Aijia doesn't know!"

Yao Cunhui calmed down a little, calmed down and said softly: "The Lord Pingjin is right with the King of Zhenxi. If it weren't for the women of the people, the two of them would have achieved a happy marriage. Queen Mother, you have always loved the Lord Pingjin, and you must be willing to make this happy marriage. .”

Empress Dowager Lu was silent for a while, then suddenly burst into laughter, her tone softened a bit, "You're right, the Ai family has always loved that girl Ah Ying, and she is very much in favor of this well-matched marriage! It's a pity,"

Empress Dowager Lu's tone suddenly changed, and she said coldly: "It's a pity that you said this a little late! Ah Ying, I will never marry Shen Quan again! Because Shen Quan is already a useless person, and will soon win the title Back home, how can Aijia's beloved niece marry a commoner and useless!"

Yao Cunhui couldn't help trembling, eyes darkened and almost collapsed to the ground.Her chest was so constricted, her mind was buzzing, she couldn't even feel her own heartbeat!

Shen Quan, has he finally reached that step!
