Chapter 434 You Must Save Him
Fu Jinyuan thought that there was no need to see Mrs. Lu again. That woman had never treated him as a son, nor had she treated Shen Suian as a daughter-in-law.
She tried to murder Shen Sui'an several times, and they had already been mortal enemies for a long time.
Asking to meet Shen Sui'an at this time must be bad news.
"Then let's meet." Shen Sui'an said.
Fu Jinyuan: "Then wait until we meet, and then send her back to Yong Dynasty."
Shen Sui'an raised his eyebrows, "Escort him back to Yong Dynasty?"
"We are allies of the Yong Dynasty, and the Bai family is a wanted criminal of the Yong Dynasty. We should send them back." Fu Jinyuan said.
If Madam Lu returns to the Yong Dynasty, she will surely face a fate worse than death.
Concubine Yao... No, Empress Dowager Yao hated Bai to the core. She would definitely take revenge on Song Xiuzhi and Bai for what they had done to Guangning.
Song Xiuzhi's fate is the future of the Bai family.
"Now that the emperor is ill, the cabinet wants to ask the queen to take charge of state affairs temporarily, but the emperor disagrees. In the end, it was decided that the empress dowager would temporarily take charge of state affairs." Ruan Xinglin said to Fu Jinyuan.
"The emperor has issued a secret order, requiring General Mu and General Zhou Bian of the Southwest to lead their troops back to the royal capital to protect him." Ruan Xinglin said the words "protect the emperor" in a mocking tone.
The military power of the Southern Dynasty was concentrated in four armies, namely the Nguyen family army, the Mu family army of the empress dowager's family, and the Southwestern General Zhou Bian and Dongning Marquis Zhong Shaofeng, who were promoted by the emperor after he ascended the throne.
The emperor recalled Zhou Bian and Mu Chengtian to lead troops to protect him at this time, which was almost an announcement to the world that the Ruan family had ulterior motives and he was afraid that he would be harmed.
"My mother saved the emperor from the wolf's mouth. All the guards present saw it clearly. I have had people spread the news of what happened in the hunting ground. Within three days, the entire capital will know that it was my mother who saved the emperor."
"If mother really wants to harm him, then he will die in the wolf's mouth." Fu Jinyuan snorted coldly.
Ruan Xinglin said, "We have a clear conscience about what happened at the hunting grounds. The cabinet and several officials from the six ministries have asked Commander Liang and others, and they all confirmed that it was the Empress who saved the Emperor."
"The so-called treason and murder are all deliberately said by the emperor because he favors the second prince."
"Noble Consort Ning was also present at the time and is also a witness."
Therefore, it was absolutely impossible for Emperor Fu to pin the crime of treason on Empress Ruan and Prince Chen.
"Zhou Bian is a straightforward and honest person. He is also loyal to the royal family and is a man who can distinguish right from wrong. Mu Chengtian is more arrogant. He was raised by the Queen Mother and is as close to the Emperor as a brother. This person... is more difficult to deal with."
Ruan Xinglin carefully analyzed the two generals who were about to return to the royal capital. Fu Jinyuan would definitely have contact with them in the future, so he had to know himself and the enemy.
Shen Sui'an listened quietly beside him.
She finally understood why the queen wanted to save the emperor instead of letting him die in the wolf's mouth.
If something happens to the emperor in the hunting ground, there will be chaos in the court.
The crown prince cannot inherit the throne without any stigma.
As expected of the Queen, she thinks three steps ahead before doing anything. She has thought about all possible scenarios and is prepared to deal with them.
Now that the Second Prince's legs are seriously injured, what's the point of the Emperor being partial to him?
Tsk tsk, this feeling of never being able to get what you want is really frustrating.
Your Majesty, this is a murderous act.
"Your Highness, you should go to the palace every day to pay your respects to the Emperor and take care of his illness. This will let all the ministers in the court know that you are a filial person." Ruan Xinglin said.
Fu Jinyuan raised his eyebrows. He went to pay his respects? It would only make the emperor angrier.
"it is good."
Ruan Xinglinhe and Fu Jinyuan did not avoid Shen Suian when talking. He explained the current situation in the court in detail so that Fu Jinyuan could better understand it.
He Zhiyuan’s disappearance does not mean that his power has completely collapsed. They still have a tough battle to fight next.
……
Shen Sui'an didn't go to see Mrs. Lu until two days later.
She was imprisoned in the imperial prison of the Pacification Division, wearing a plain long dress, and still looked calm and composed.
Seeing her like this, Shen Sui'an's mind emerged the image of her as the Duke's wife in her previous life, who was graceful and elegant, dressed in jewels.
I remember that she once looked at me with disdain and disgust, saying that I was a useless piece of trash because I couldn't win over my husband.
They are completely different people.
"I thought you wouldn't come to see me." Mrs. Lu said slowly when she saw Shen Sui'an.
Du Youchuan immediately brought an armchair for Shen Sui'an to sit on.
"It's not surprising at all that you're still alive." Shen Suian smiled faintly.
When she heard that Mrs. Lu had fallen off a cliff and her body was unrecognizable, she had already guessed in her heart that Mrs. Lu must have faked her death to escape.
Only by faking her death could she make Queen Mother Yao give up seeking revenge on her.
Mrs. Lu gave a mocking smile.
"I also didn't expect that the bastard was actually the prince of the Southern Dynasty."
The person she hated and despised the most in her life was Lu Yuan. It was he who destroyed the beautiful love between her and her husband, but she couldn't get rid of this person.
In the end, she fell into the hands of this man.
Shen Sui'an said coldly, "If you still want to talk like this, then there is nothing to talk about between us."
"You, like Song Xiuzhi, know what will happen in the future, right? That's why you didn't marry Lu Heng again. You are responsible for the current situation of our Lu family," said Mrs. Lu.
"I didn't ask you to hurt Princess Guangning, nor did I ask you to do those things that are against the will of heaven and earth. Your Lu family's current situation is all your own choice." Shen Suian replied coldly.
"You don't have to think about increasing my guilt by saying these things. I don't owe anything to the Lu family. It's the Lu family that owes me and Lu Yuan."
When Mrs. Lu heard Shen Suian's words, her eyes darkened slightly.
"Shen Sui'an, considering your past relationship with Lu Heng, please save him and let him leave here." Mrs. Lu said softly, "I can die, and you can take revenge on me in any way you want."
Shen Suian frowned. Didn’t anyone tell Mrs. Lu that her son was dead?
"Lu Heng was supposed to have a bright future." Mrs. Lu covered her face and sobbed.
She invested so much effort in her son, who was so outstanding, the youngest top scholar in the Yong Dynasty. How could he become a wanted criminal?
I am so unwilling.
Shen Sui'an: "Have you met Lu Heng?"
"No, if you let me go to see him, I will definitely be grateful to you." Mrs. Lu pleaded.
Mrs. Lu, who had been proud all her life, finally lowered her proud head.
Shen Sui'an shook his head, "You will never see him again."
Mrs. Lu was slightly startled and her face turned pale. "I want to see him, I must see him, Shen Sui'an, you are his wife, you loved Lu Heng deeply, how could you bear to watch him being tortured, you are the princess, please let him go, let him go..."
Shen Sui'an stood up and said, "Take good care of her and don't let her die in the Southern Dynasty."
