"Now Shufei has hurt Peizhu's family, and your mother has always wanted Peizhu's family to forgive Shufei.
But in the end, no matter how the emperor deals with Concubine Shu, your mother will put all the blame on Peizhu's family and even regard them as enemies.
Peizhu is my savior and also my close friend. It is impossible for me to repay kindness with enmity and stand on your mother's side.
So my husband, if your choice is the second one, then you have to do the same as me, choose Peizhu's family, and choose to stand on the side of Prince Kang's Mansion.
The choices are all here, husband, you make your own decision.
Whatever choice you make, I accept it."
Lu Jianan said this in a very calm tone.
It’s not so much calmness as it is that my heart is numb and I have no expectations.
No expectations, no disappointment.
She also knew that the second option she mentioned would be somewhat difficult for Leng Zhuning.
Leng Zhuning knew better than her what it meant to choose to stand on the side of Prince Kang's Mansion.
As the prime minister, second only to the emperor, Leng Zhuning naturally knew what his wife meant by this.
Without any hesitation, he stood up and knelt down in front of Lu Jiannan in front of Prince Kang and his wife.
Prince Kang and Ye Peizhu were both a little surprised.
Lu Jianan was also surprised, but she remained calm and composed.
"What are you doing, my husband?"
Leng Zhuning held Lu Jianan's hand tightly, his eyes filled with strong apology and his tone was anxious.
"Jianan, I choose the second option! There's no way I'm divorcing you!
I told you, I don't care if we have children or not, if you like children, we can adopt one.
My mother killed our child and made you like this.
I know my mother won't admit it and won't apologize to you, so I'll forgive her on her behalf.
I will do as you say, and we will live a good life together from now on, and I won't care about Concubine Shu anymore!"
“Husband, if you continue to be with me just to forgive your mother’s sins, then there is no need.
Your mother will be punished for what she did. You don't need to continue to be with me and I don't need you to forgive her for her sins."
Lu Jianan spoke in a light tone. The love he once had for Leng Zhuning had gradually faded away over the past ten years.
Now, no matter what Leng Zhuning said or what choice he made, she seemed to be able to remain calm.
"That's not the case! Jianan, of course I chose to continue to be with you because I like you!
Jianan, do you believe in my feelings for you? I know I have wronged you too much in the past. I will treat you well in the future and forgive my sins!
Leng Zhuning explained eagerly.
Lu Jianan pursed her lips and asked, "What are you going to do about your mother?"
All the conflicts between the couple were caused by Jiang Fanghui. Before Jiang Fanghui left the Prime Minister's Mansion, she really didn't want to go back.
Leng Zhuning's eyes became firm, "I will lay out these things and explain them clearly to my mother. This time, no matter what, I will send her and my uncle's family out of the Prime Minister's Mansion!"
"Okay, I hope you'll keep your word. I won't go back with you until you've dealt with these things. I don't want to see your mother again."
After Lu Jianan finished speaking, Ye Peizhu immediately responded, "Jianan, you can stay in our house as long as you want!
Prime Minister, I still say the same thing as before. If you need our help, just ask us, and we will help if we can."
Leng Zhuning nodded, stood up and bowed, "Okay, thank you Prince Kang, Princess Kang!"
Lu Jiannan felt a little embarrassed to be staying in Prince Kang’s mansion for free. She actually wanted to stay in an inn.
Ye Peizhu seemed to see her hesitation and interrupted her directly.
"Jia Nan, don't think too much, just stay here. Jiu'er likes you very much, and you can see Jiu'er every day here."
Ye Peizhu used a small milk bag as bait, and Lu Jianan did not hesitate.
"Okay, Your Majesty, Peizhu, I'm sorry to bother you."
Leng Zhuning and Lu Jiannan came to Prince Kang's Mansion together, but Leng Zhuning was the only one left when they left.
He returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion. As soon as he entered the room he and Lu Jiannan lived in, he felt empty, as if a piece of his heart was missing.
How blind and heartless had he been for the past ten years, just watching his wife being tortured by her mother?!
Their children......
Before his parents knew of his existence, he was killed by his grandmother!
"Ning'er? Ning'er, you're back! You went to Prince Kang's mansion. What did Prince Kang say?"
Jiang Fanghui's voice sounded at the door, and the first thing she said was about Concubine Shu.
When Leng Zhuning heard his mother's voice, he closed his eyes, then opened them again, his eyes full of determination.
Jiang Fanghui rushed directly into the inner room and saw Leng Zhuning sitting beside the bed. She frowned and couldn't wait to continue asking questions.
"Ning'er, what did Prince Kang say? Did he agree to forgive your cousin?
If both of them can give in, then the emperor will be able to give your cousin a lighter punishment!
Mother originally went to the palace to look for your sister, but the emperor also went to your sister's palace, so mother bravely pleaded with the emperor.
The Emperor also said that this matter mainly depends on what Prince Kang's family thinks. As long as Prince Kang's family is willing to forgive your cousin, then the Emperor will be able to punish your cousin leniently! "
Jiang Fanghui was quite excited when she talked about her niece.
"Is this what the Emperor said?"
Leng Zhuning was furious, but he still had a trace of rationality.
He felt something was strange when he heard this.
Jiang Fanghui choked, "The emperor didn't say it so directly, but the emperor's implicit meaning is this!"
Leng Zhuning no longer believed what his mother said.
Rather than saying that this is what the emperor meant, it would be better to say that her mother deliberately distorted the emperor's meaning!
The emperor's favorite son is Prince Kang. How could he say such a thing?
No matter who the murderer is, the emperor will never let the murderer off so easily if he hurt his beloved son and his family!
His mother really wanted to save her niece, so she was so bold as to fabricate and distort what the emperor said!
If this continues, one day, his and Jianan's lives will be sacrificed by his mother to her niece!
Leng Zhuning took a deep breath and wanted to confront his mother right now, but he couldn't.
Once he has everything ready, everything will go smoothly.
"Mom, I need to rest. Please go out."
Jiang Fanghui was displeased when she heard this. "I'm asking you a question. What did Prince Kang and Princess Kang say? Are they willing to forgive your cousin?"
"Someone, send the old lady away."
Leng Zhuning didn't answer his mother's question, but just shouted for help.
