Chapter 396 The Situation in the Capital
"You!" Qiao Tianqing wiped her tears and glared at him fiercely.
Luo Tingshan also looked over lightly. Luo Xiao was laughing happily, but suddenly he was frightened and started hiccuping.
"I suddenly remembered that I still have some things to deal with in Huaxiang Building. Father and mother, I'll take my leave first." After saying this, he was ready to run away.
Luo Tingshan: "Wait! I heard you're going to learn Kung Fu from Miss Qiao, so it's a good opportunity to take her around the Fortress these days. You don't have to keep an eye on anything else."
Luo Xiao suddenly became frustrated and shouted, "Forget about learning Kung Fu, I don't want to accompany her!"
"Who wants you to accompany me?" Qiao Tianqing said angrily, "You're just a coward!"
Luo Xiao was startled: "What did you say?"
"I won't say good things a second time!" Qiao Tianqing was very proud, and then he went out directly under the guidance of his servants, ready to wash up.
"Stop right there!" Luo Xiao immediately chased after him.
As soon as the two noisy people left, the main hall immediately became quiet.
Luo Tingshan looked at Zhu Mingqing who was still standing at the door and coughed lightly: "Sit down."
Zhu Mingqing walked over and asked directly, "What brings General Qiao's daughter here?"
Luo Tingshan's ears turned red, and it was obvious that he was still thinking about what happened that night.
That night was the most shameful day for him in the past 38 years.
Actually, in front of Ming Qing...
"Hello?" Zhu Mingqing waved in front of him. "If it's inconvenient, then there's no need to tell me."
She would check it out herself.
Luo Tingshan has never been a shy person, but he kept thinking about that incident in his heart, worried about leaving a bad impression on the other party.
"That night..." He opened his mouth to explain, but didn't know where to start.
This is indeed a problem that has always existed. As long as your legs are not in good condition, the inconvenience will always exist.
Zhu Mingqing raised his eyebrows and immediately realized that the other party was not on the same wavelength as him.
"People have three urgent needs, isn't that normal?" she said casually.
Luo Tingshan looked at the other person's calm expression, and his anxious heart was gradually calmed down.
Yes, it's normal.
Even though he had been disabled for a year, anyone would find that kind of scene embarrassing.
Especially in the eyes of my children, I used to be omnipotent.
Zhu Mingqing clicked her tongue and shook her head. How could she not know that General Luo had such a hypocritical side?
"Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. I'll just pretend I don't know. How about that?" she suggested. "If you still feel embarrassed, why don't I go to the toilet now?"
After saying that, she was about to stand up. Seeing this, Luo Tingshan quickly raised his hand to stop her: "No need."
He just didn't want to be seen by others as a useless person who couldn't take care of himself.
Zhu Mingqing seemed to see through his thoughts and said directly: "No matter what, I will do my best to help heal your legs."
Luo Tingshan smiled helplessly and said, "Do your best and leave the rest to fate! Let's get down to business."
Zhu Mingqing knew that the other party might not believe it before seeing the results.
But after taking the spiritual honey for so long, it should be taking effect soon.
"This is General Qiao's letter." Luo Tingshan had already opened it and looked over. His eyes were deep and he said, "The capital is about to be in chaos."
Zhu Mingqing's expression was startled, and he started reading the letter.
Five days ago, General Qiao took the eldest prince to Longnan to quell the rebellion.
But this rebellion was not simple. There were more than 10,000 people involved, and they were very organized and disciplined, not the scattered and disorganized army of the past.
Zhu Mingqing carefully recalled the content in the book about suppressing the rebellion in Longnan. It seemed that the third prince went to the expedition. Why was someone else replaced this time?
She couldn't help but ask, "What about the Liang family and the Third Prince? Is there anything unusual?"
Luo Tingshan spoke slowly, "Liang Huanyu's disappearance dealt a heavy blow to the Liang family. The Third Prince's plans in Jiangnan were also disrupted, so he won't be able to take care of the city for a while."
For others, embezzling salt fields and iron mines is a capital crime.
But for the Third Prince, who has the Emperor's support, the problem can be solved by pretending to be pitiful and showing weakness.
As for the two officials, they must have been rescued by Jiang Cheng and sent a message to the Xu family.
Even if the Xu family puts most of their energy on Longnan, in order to protect the eldest prince, the third prince will definitely be involved.
They will definitely not miss this opportunity.
Zhu Mingqing frowned: "But His Majesty favors the Third Prince, is that okay?"
Luo Tingshan shook his head: "Of course the Third Prince will not lose his heart, but the Liang family may not lose theirs!"
The emperor must have remembered Liang Zongwu's concealment of the copper mine. Now that such a thing has happened to the Liang family again, even if it was instigated by the third prince, it is a betrayal to the suspicious Emperor Jiancheng.
Even if the third prince pleads for mercy, the Liang family's power will definitely be damaged this time.
unless……
"Unless what?" Zhu Mingqing asked immediately.
"The Liang family's ancestor once sacrificed his life to save the late emperor. He has the red seal and iron certificate in his hand. If he takes out this item, perhaps he can calm down the situation."
"A golden medal of immunity from death?!" Zhu Mingqing was indignant. "The Luo family has guarded the border for generations, so why don't you have one?"
Luo Tingshan's mouth froze. It was because the Luo family had never had the Liang family's desire to flatter the emperor since ancient times. After all, military officers were not as good at speaking as civil officials.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Regardless, if the eldest prince succeeds in suppressing the rebellion in Longnan this time, he will be highly commended, and the voices in the court supporting him as the crown prince will be even stronger."
"But if His Majesty doesn't allow it, the Third Prince and his faction will do their utmost to stop it. It all depends on which side has the better move!"
Zhu Mingqing analyzed the current situation of the eldest prince and the third prince in his mind. The former had the support of the Xu family, and naturally his subordinates also had the support of the military officers' faction, but don't forget that the things that General Xu had done could, to a certain extent, completely destroy the eldest prince's reputation among the people.
Liang Zhongling is the head of the civil officials. Even though he is constrained by Pei Shangling, he has countless students. The third prince has the support of civil officials and scholars from the folk. In addition, the Weiyuan Marquisate also occupies a position in the army.
Liang Huanyu certainly can't go back, but the Liang family will definitely not give up the marriage with the Wang family easily. In this way, the third prince has a greater advantage and completely defeats the eldest prince.
The most important thing is that the emperor's heart is on the side of the third prince. Even if he makes mistakes one after another, as long as it is not a crime of treason, he can wait for Emperor Jiancheng to die and take over the throne.
But the Liang family was both a helper and a hindrance to him.
She said excitedly, "The capital city is quite lively. I want to go and see it."
The main reason is to see the Liang family and the third prince in such a miserable state, which is really satisfying.
Seeing her eagerness to stir up trouble, Luo Tingshan asked tentatively, "Do you really want to go?"
Zhu Mingqing rolled his eyes at him and said, "Of course it's fake!"
She is not a fool. Even if there is excitement to watch, she will not put herself in danger.
