Chapter 328: A life-threatening situation


0

When Lu Ruoyan received the imperial edict, she still looked aggrieved, but as soon as the eunuchs who delivered the edict left, her expression immediately changed.

She picked up the imperial edict proudly, straightened her chest with her brows held high, and when her eyes swept over Lu Seyan, she straightened her posture even more, like a winner.

Mrs. Lu has not yet recovered from the shock, but no matter how this incident happened, the result is a good thing.

"Ruoyan, what... is going on?" Madam Lu glanced at Lu Seyan, "It's nothing, you can go down first."

Lu Seyan frowned, "Mother, I think this matter is still..."

"Didn't you hear what I said?" Mrs. Lu said unhappily.

In her heart, she never considered Lu Seyan as her own, so naturally she didn't want her to hear such an important matter.

But Lu Ruoyan didn't think so. "Mom, just let her listen. It won't matter if she knows it anyway."

"But……"

"Mother, what are you afraid of? Let her know that I am the one who can make our palace prosperous. I will be the concubine of Prince Rui in the future. When Prince Rui ascends the throne, I will support our palace."

Lu Seyan shook her head. "Sister, you are dreaming."

Lu Ruoyan was rarely not angry, "I know you are jealous of me."

"Sister, I said I'm not jealous of a dead person at all."

"Dead man?" Lu Ruoyan's face suddenly turned red. "Are you cursing me?"

Lu Seyan took a deep breath and said, "I'm not cursing my sister, I'm just telling the truth."

"Shut up, Lu Seyan, you just think you're smart and can't stand seeing others do better than you."

"Sister, you misunderstood. Although we are separated by a distance, we are all from the Hou Mansion after all. I never thought of watching you die, but if you do this, you will only lead yourself to death."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Madam Lu was unhappy. "The imperial edict has come down, didn't you hear it? Who is Prince Rui? He is both civil and military, and he is favored by the emperor. Ruoyan is right, you are jealous of her."

Lu Seyan sighed. No wonder her father was entangled with someone of her mother's background. This mistress of the Hou Mansion was too ordinary.

"Sister, it is precisely because the Emperor Rui is in great favor that he should be more upright now. He dare not make even the slightest mistake and will definitely behave himself. As for you... no matter what means you used, you caused him to be punished by the Emperor. This is still a small matter, but he lost face and lost the Emperor's favor. Naturally, he dare not argue with the Emperor. Then... who will he blame for this mistake?"

Lu Ruoyan's face froze, "I...I am innocent."

"Sister, do you think Prince Rui is a fool?" Lu Seyan sighed. "Prince Rui can stand out among the princes, so he must be very scheming. You schemed against him and caused him to fall out of favor. Even if he treats you well on the surface, he hates you in his heart."

Lu Seyan wanted to say that she was being cautious, but in the end she was harmed by this idiot.

"You are just exaggerating." Lu Ruoyan said.

Lu Seyan sighed, "I just reminded you because we are both from the Hou Mansion. The imperial decree for marriage has been issued, and nothing can be changed. But your road is not easy."

"Humph, you just said it's hard to leave, but do you have any solution?"

"I have a plan, will you listen, sister?"

"I...you tell me something."

Lu Seyan glanced at her and said, "Cancel the engagement!"

"Impossible. This is something I worked so hard to get. I don't even have my innocence anymore. How is this possible?"

Lu Ruoyan was like a jumping monkey, "I said you were jealous of me and couldn't stand seeing me doing well."

Madam Lu also frowned, "This is a marriage granted by the Emperor. If the marriage is cancelled, who else can your sister marry?"

"Of course it's King Rui!"

"Didn't you say you wanted to cancel the engagement?" Mrs. Lu was confused.

"Hasn't mother heard of the saying that one must face death before one can survive?"

Mrs. Lu took a deep breath and looked at Lu Seyan in disbelief.

That night, Lu Ruoyan, the daughter of the Hou family, attempted suicide but failed and was rescued.

This made the Emperor Shunde very angry and displeased. After all, he just granted the marriage and she threatened to commit suicide. This was not giving him face.

Prince Rui Wenchun picked up the wine glass with great interest, stood up and planned to go and see the excitement.

First he drugged me, then let me touch her, and now he's trying to commit suicide. What's going on?

Lu Ruoyan knelt on the ground with a pale face. Emperor Shunde was furious, but he endured it. Mrs. Lu kowtowed and cried to apologize to her daughter.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Ruoyan is not unhappy with the marriage."

Emperor Shunde laughed angrily, "If you are not satisfied, why are you looking for death?"

"Your Highness...Your Highness feels that this matter is too unfair to His Royal Highness Prince Rui."

Wen Chun heard her say this when he entered the room, and his brows immediately frowned. What was this woman going to do?

"Since he bullied you, what is there for him to feel wronged about?"

Lu Ruoyan cried and shook her head, "His Royal Highness Prince Rui is a prince, and everyone knows what kind of person he is. But this happened for no reason, and it is I who have brought shame upon his reputation. I have always admired Prince Rui, how can I let him bear the infamy because of my affairs? Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want this marriage, but I don't want His Royal Highness Prince Rui to be implicated. Once I die, the matter will be over. I hope Your Majesty will grant me your approval..."

When King Rui saw the woman crying on the ground, he had only one thought in his mind, that is, the idea was definitely not proposed by this woman.

It's impossible that she really wanted to commit suicide. How could someone who really wanted to commit suicide be rescued?

A large proportion of those who seek death but fail to do so are just pretending to do so.

However, he likes doing it this way, at least it won't damage his reputation so much.

This can be considered as helping myself, but it will naturally help her more.

If she died in the mansion in the future, many people would wonder if they were angry with her because she ruined their reputation.

What a good move.

He looked at Madam Lu and then at Lu Seyan who was kneeling behind Madam Lu. She seemed to be cowering there timidly.

But Wen Chun knew that this was the smartest thing about this family.

Otherwise, why would the old lady of the Hou Mansion accept them mother and daughter so easily, and be willing to arrange her under the name of Madam Lu and give her the status of a legitimate daughter without regard for her face?

It’s a pity that this time the woman he wants to marry is Lu Ruoyan, not Lu Seyan.

She already has a stunning appearance. If she grows up completely in another two years, she will be an even more stunning beauty.

Wen Chun doesn't care much about beauty, but the woman he wants must be extraordinary.

In fact, it’s very good. Now there is only Lu Seyan.

Since this is a good show arranged for him, how could he not express his opinion?

"Father, I have already investigated this matter. Someone tampered with my tea, which caused me to lose control and bully Miss Ruoyan. But even so, I dare not shirk my responsibility. If Miss Ruoyan is willing, I will definitely treat her well."

After Wen Chun finished speaking, he glanced at Lu Seyan. Is she satisfied with this?
