Chapter 244 Ask It Yourself
The grandfather and grandson sat down again. The servant outside the room knocked on the door and brought in food for unknown reasons.
Lu Xinran looked at him with a half-smile, waiting for her for so long.
Lu Jinchuan looked sullenly at the waiter who took out a bowl of noodle soup from the food box and placed it in front of him. His stomach growled again and again, but he was too lazy to put on his grandfather's dignity any more, so he picked up his chopsticks and started slurping.
While he was eating, Lu Xinran was not idle either.
The grandfather and grandson were at odds with each other, and she finally had time to see why Lu Jinchuan had come to find her.
[I wanted to know what Song Junyan was thinking.]
[Why did he want to know what Song Junyan was planning to do and ask me? Why not just ask Song Junyan himself?]
[She wants to take sides, but is afraid of the risks, and is reluctant to follow the dragon. She is really taking the ugly-looking-but-wanting-to-be-beautiful approach to its extreme. ]
As Lu Jinchuan was slurping noodles, a mouthful of soup went directly into his trachea, causing him to cough heart-wrenchingly.
There is no one in the world who is not greedy, and he is just an ordinary person.
And if Song Junyan fails in his bid for the throne, does she think she will have a good ending?
No matter how much she disliked her grandfather, the Shangshu Mansion was her strength, and his position as Shangshu was also a help to Song Junyan!
Lu Xinran rubbed his chin, wondering whether he should subtly reveal Song Junyan's thoughts.
But thinking about the fact that my grandfather had always been a fence-sitter, when a war broke out on the border and the military situation was urgent, he was still thinking about playing both sides.
If she told him what Song Junyan was thinking, it might ruin his plans.
Thinking of this, she immediately made up her mind.
[Through the throne or not, these are things that men need to consider. They have nothing to do with me. I don’t want to worry about them.]
Lu Jinchuan: “…”
How could the Lu family raise such a stubborn kid who causes such a headache!
If Song Junyan could become the crown prince, she could become the crown princess.
If she can sit on the throne, she can become the queen.
Which woman in this world doesn't want the supreme position?
This damn girl just wants to piss him off, right?
After eating a bowl of noodle soup, Lu Jinchuan felt so choked up in the stomach that he called the servant to take away the bowl of soup, and then he began to consider his words.
“Whether you recognize this home in your heart or not, you cannot deny the help it will bring to you.
"If you want to secure your position as the Princess of Wei, and if the King of Wei wants to gain a firm foothold in the court, you also need the help of your grandfather.
"Aristocratic family prospers together and suffers together. You should understand this simple truth."
Lu Xinran nodded in support. The other person was trying hard to sound sincere and sincere, so she couldn't be so indifferent any more.
"So I never said a bad word about the government to anyone."
Lu Jinchuan: “…”
You said a lot in your heart!
He has already become a laughing stock among his colleagues, what else can he do!
"So Grandfather is asking you seriously, does the King of Wei have the ambition to take the throne?"
Lu Xinran shook his head seriously: "I don't know. If he doesn't tell me about this, I won't ask. If Grandfather wants to know, just ask directly. With the character of King Wei, if Grandfather treats him sincerely, he will naturally return his sincerity."
If you just want to play both sides, don't act sincere.
A soft nail was thrown back, and Lu Jinchuan frowned and pursed his lips.
Knowing that I couldn't get anything out of her, and that her inner voice was always so intermittent that I couldn't make out anything, I decided not to waste any more time.
He waved his hand to signal the other party that he could go back, and Lu Xinran immediately stood up and turned away.
This moment of plastic family affection was vividly displayed between the two of them.
Lying on the comfortable big bed, Lu Xinran recalled what Lu Jinchuan had just said and done, silently figuring out what he was thinking.
Song Junyan had his eyes on the throne, so the court officials would definitely try to stop him.
Although she disliked Lu Jinchuan in that matter, she could not deny that he still had considerable influence in the court.
If he could stand by Song Junyan sincerely, he would definitely give him a lot of help.
Thinking of this, she turned over and sat up, wanting to write a letter, but she was afraid that the letter might be stolen by someone with ulterior motives, causing trouble.
After hesitating for a while, he became more and more confused.
Forget it, I should find an opportunity to meet him. It is safer to talk about this kind of thing face to face.
Without Lu Xinlan by her side, she was less interested in leaving the house.
Since she didn't leave the house, Zhang Shui'er had no way to find her, so she could only send a letter to Lu's house to look for her.
After coming out of Pei's courtyard, the little sister returned to her room, and Zhang Shui'er sighed sadly for a moment.
"Lu Er, Cui Wu still told his family that he wanted to go to the border."
"oh?"
Lu Xinran was not surprised. "Did your grandfather know about this?"
"I know. After we separated last time, I went back to the mansion and asked my grandfather. My grandfather thought that his idea was great and was optimistic about him."
"Isn't that great? You won't be getting married until next year, and he won't have anything to do in the capital this year. He might as well go to Hanyuguan to gain military merit."
With his skills and character, one year is enough for him to find an opportunity to gain military merit.
"But," Zhang Shui'er couldn't tell whether she was worried or what, she just felt extremely nervous: "On the battlefield, there are no judges. What if, what if something goes wrong?"
"You have to have faith in him. Besides, wealth and honor are achieved through risk. If you want fame and success, you have to fight for it."
Having witnessed many life and death situations at the border, Lu Xinran didn't know how to comfort her.
Moreover, the Zhang family is a family of military generals, and the Zhang family members understand the meaning of this better.
In her opinion, Zhang Shui'er was just being too concerned and causing chaos.
Zhang Shuier left with a worried heart. She came to find Lu Xinran just to talk to someone.
It has become a reality, she cannot stop it and has no right to stop it.
When Pei learned that Cui Shenglin was going to the border, she couldn't help but sigh: "This child is ambitious."
It’s a pity that the girl he likes is not Lu Xinlan, otherwise the two of them would be a great match together.
One is straightforward and optimistic, the other is calm and composed, what a perfect match they are.
"Grandma," seeing Pei's sigh, Lu Xinran immediately remembered what Lu Jinchuan asked her to do that day: "Does Madam Tang really like my sister and want to propose marriage for Mr. Tang?"
"yes."
Speaking of this, Pei became excited: "Mrs. Tang sent someone to the mansion to propose marriage some time ago, but your mother..."
Speaking of the Zhao family, the Pei family is overwhelmed.
"Your mother rejected the matter outright and told Mrs. Tang not to talk about dreams like a fool."
Lu Xinran: “…”
Zhao is crazy!
Who gave her the courage and confidence to say this about Liu?
"Grandmother, Zhao has such a bad temper, don't you really want to find a way to restrain her?"
If Zhao continues to go crazy, she will offend all the prefectures in the capital.
Pei rubbed her brows and said, "How can there be no restraint? After the guests left, I scolded her in public and even made her pick Buddha beans in the courtyard for a month."
I thought that after a month, she would be able to figure out many things, but it turned out that she took things for granted.
Fortunately, Liu knew Zhao's character and personality, so she didn't think too much about it.
Just knowing that there was no way out from them, Tang Quyan spoke directly to Lu Jinchuan.
