Hairpin Phoenix

   Chapter 264

   Over the years, Dawei has been fighting wars. Big battles and small battles, one battle after another without stopping. The previous year's cultivation and recuperation was almost calm, which was really rare.

   This time, the Xingyang army set off on the expedition, the prince was in charge of the army, and the six departments of the court were also quickly turned.

  The Ministry of Household needs to allocate money, the Ministry of War prepares provisions and supplies, and the Ministry of Industry has to step up the production of weapons. The Ministry of Rites is busy preparing for the canonization ceremony of the prince. The Ministry of Personnel urgently dispatched officials to fill the vacancy in Pizhou.

   In Pizhou, not only did the county governor die, but two magistrates also died. The officials, both large and small, fled, and there were few left. Therefore, the chaos of the people became more and more serious.

Of the six    sections, the only one that stops is the Punishment Department.

   Of course, this is also temporary. When the army fights, the captured bandits or officials who have defected will be sent back to the capital one after another, and they will be interrogated and convicted.

  In addition to training the crown prince, Emperor Yongjia did not forget the other sons.

  The eldest prince Li Yi was sent to the Ministry of War, the third prince Li Hao went to the Ministry of Industry, and the fourth prince Li Xian went to the Ministry of Housing.

   As for the fifth prince, Li Chang... He is too young to be an errand, and continues to study in the study.

  The eldest prince is busy on duty in the Ministry of War, while the eldest prince and concubine take care of the house and raise Tanger. When I have free time, I will also go to the Second Prince's Mansion to walk around.

   "I really don't know about the elders." The eldest princess sighed apologetically: "Fortunately, my younger brother and sister have a good life and are safe. Otherwise, I really don't have the face to see my younger brother and sister again."

  The Marquis of Guangping and Concubine Meng were in business.

  Lu Mingyu was not only fine, but also jumped from the second prince concubine to the crown prince.

  The winner has to have some grace.

  Lu Mingyu smiled lightly: "The assassination has nothing to do with Sister-in-law from beginning to end. Sister-in-law doesn't need to apologize."

  Emperor Yongjia in the palace wanted to see the scene of "letting go of the past and making peace as before". Everyone knows it well, it's okay to do a show.

   The eldest princess glanced at Lu Mingyu's belly half envy, half pantothenic: "The second brother and sister are lucky people, and they are pregnant with twins. This is a big good omen."

Lu Mingyu was never used to anyone, so he replied slowly: "Yang Gongren is really unlucky. After the child was born, he closed his eyes. Fortunately, my sister-in-law is kind and kind, and she keeps Brother Tang under her name and treats her as if I've come out. Yang Gongren knows underground, so it's time to close your eyes with peace of mind."

   First Princess: "…"

  Those who have done something wrong will inevitably have a guilty conscience.

   The eldest prince's smile was a little stiff: "Yang Gongren gave birth prematurely and dystocia, it's really unfortunate."

  Huh, look you are proud now. Waiting for the day you give birth prematurely, it is the most dangerous to have twins, see if you survive this test.

  Lu Mingyu's eyes flickered, revealing the inhumane and gloomy thoughts of the eldest prince concubine, and smiled.

  The eldest princess sat for a while, got up and left.

  Lu Xuan sat by the side the whole time without making a sound. Lu Mingyu was about to get up to see him off, and Lu Xuan immediately said, "I'll take the eldest prince and concubine for a ride. Fourth sister, don't get up and take a good rest."

  Lu Mingyu smiled: "Alright."

   The First Princess saw it, and her heart was sour again.

   is really more than a person, maddening people.

  Lu Mingyu married a good husband, and her family was willing to support her. The day when Lu Mingyu was assassinated and the King of Xingyang stormed into the Wenhua Palace, who didn't know?

   Knowing that Lu Mingyu was pregnant with twins, the sixth son of the Lu family came to live there for a few months to take care of the pregnant Lu Mingyu. Such actions are truly enviable.

   Looking back at himself, he has suffered so many grievances in the First Prince’s Mansion. When her father, mother, brother and sister-in-law came, they would only repeatedly tell her to be patient. He didn't even want to accuse the eldest prince for her, let alone enter the palace to face the saint.

   The more the eldest princess thought about it, the more sad she became. After returning home, she burst into tears.

  The nanny came to report: "Qi, the eldest prince and concubine, brother Tang always spit up milk, should I ask an imperial doctor to take a look?"

  Isn’t it common for a child who is not yet two months old to spit up?

  The First Prince was a little impatient: "No need. The imperial court is busy with wars, and His Highness is too busy in the Ministry of War every day. This trivial matter is not worth me going to the palace to ask for a doctor."

  Nanny didn't dare to talk too much, so she backed away, but she sighed inwardly.

   The eldest prince and concubine kept saying that she treated the concubine as her own, all of which were told to outsiders. How can a real mother be so indifferent to her child.

  …

   Several prince's mansions were next to each other, the first prince concubine went to visit Lu Mingyu three times, and the third prince concubine Meng Yunluo reluctantly went to the second prince's mansion.

  Lu Xuan knew that Lu Mingyu and Meng Yunluo had old grudges, and said in a low voice, "Fourth sister doesn't want to see the third prince, so don't. I'll send her away."

  Lu Mingyu said: "I am idle, I am idle, invite her in, I can talk to her to pass the time."

  Lu Xuan nodded to show that he understood: "Fourth sister is so idle that she wants to bully others!"

  Lu Mingyu let out a chirp, reached out and slapped Lu Xuan on the back of the head: "Just talk too much!"

   After Li Jing left, the house was not deserted at all, and it was more lively than before. This is all Lu Xuan's "credit".

  Lu Xuan deliberately bared his teeth and grinned in pain, which made Lu Mingyu smile again.

  Meng Yunluo quickly entered the inner hall, and gave Lu Mingyu congratulations without a smile: "Second sister-in-law is pregnant with twins, and I'm here to congratulate the second sister-in-law on such a happy event."

   also made the palace attendants hold rich gifts.

   The skill of pretending is much stronger than before.

  Lu Mingyu thanked him casually, and people accepted the gift. The two sisters sat opposite each other, gossiping casually.

   In the end, Meng Yunluo couldn't hold back, she opened her mouth and said, "Second sister-in-law, actually, I'm here today, and there's one more thing I want to ask you."

  Lu Mingyu glanced at her: "If you are interceding for your father, you don't have to open your mouth."

  Meng Yunluo: "…"

   Meng Yunluo was so choked that she almost didn't come up. She is not a good-natured person at first, and she has a deep relationship with Lu Mingyu, and the jealousy that has been suppressed in her heart will come out at any time.

   opened his mouth, and his tone was not so good: "My father was confused for a while, and he did something wrong. He has been severely punished by the emperor. The dignified Marquis of Guangping was demoted to become a general. He was locked in the house to reflect on himself."

   "This time the civilians are in chaos, and he has no part in it."

   "Isn't that enough?"

   "You are very good, nothing happened, and twins were diagnosed. Why are you still staring at this little grudge? Why can't you enter the palace to talk for my father and let the emperor let my father out of the house earlier?"

  Lu Mingyu twitched the corners of his mouth: "You are so sloppy, just go to the palace to plead for mercy. Why are you talking nonsense with me here?"

  Meng Yunluo blushed with anger, and almost rushed out the words, "If I dare to enter the palace, would I still use it to beg you?"

  Lu Mingyu sneered: "You dare not enter the palace yourself! Let me tell you, I am a narrow-minded person, and the most vengeful person, I remember every stroke!"

   "Sixth brother, the third prince and concubine are leaving, you will see off on my behalf!"

  Meng Yunluo: "…"
