Chapter 306: Bah, what is that?

Lu Xinran already felt it was funny that she was being treated as an NPC. She nodded slightly to Song Junze and went upstairs, leaving Song Junyan downstairs to exchange some polite words with him.

"Are you here for lunch too, Fourth Brother? I haven't had time to congratulate you and Fourth Sister-in-law yet. I'm not the one who came here today. Would you like to have lunch with Fourth Sister-in-law?"

Song Junyan looked at him and chuckled, then found an excuse to refuse: "Your fourth sister-in-law is shy and shy, so let's stop here today. I'll invite you to my house when I have the chance in the future."

Song Junze: “…”

He tried hard not to let his face break down. His fourth sister-in-law, with her rebellious and unruly voice, was she introverted and shy?

Song Junyan smiled and patted him on the shoulder, then walked around him and went upstairs.

Lu Xinran was standing in front of the window looking at the crowd below in boredom. When she heard the door open, she turned around and breathed a sigh of relief when she didn't see anyone else behind Song Junyan.

"Your two brothers seem to be eager to prove their innocence."

Song Junyan chuckled: "You have seen the temper of the third brother. No one wants to be remembered by him."

Song Junhua and Song Junhe were both the most favored princes by the emperor. In the past, they were supported by their respective mothers and concubines. Both of them had the most domineering and unscrupulous temperaments.

Even though Concubine Hua is no longer around, without Song Junhe to compete with him, Song Junhua is still the one with the most violent temper and the one who doesn't know how to restrain himself.

"But after this, Song Junhua has been labeled as unfit for the task in the eyes of the court officials, right?"

Even the emperor no longer loved him as much as before.

This is like doing subtraction, every incident will reduce his favorability in the emperor's heart.

As Lu Xinran thought about this, he suddenly felt that the person behind him seemed to be very capable and knew the emperor's character very well.

Song Junyan walked up to her, took her hand, and led her to the table and sat down side by side.

"It's just a momentary consideration. Father is in the prime of his life. Who will remember this day in ten or twenty years?"

As long as Song Junhua had capable and decisive people around him, his actions of the past few days would be forgotten by the court officials and the emperor in a few years.

Lu Xinran was slightly stunned by what she said, and subconsciously turned his head to look at the calm and indifferent person.

"You are very open-minded and far-sighted."

Song Junyan just smiled faintly. If she had experienced the fickleness of human nature in the harem, she would have seen through all of this as well.

However, he was the only one who had suffered, and he still liked her simple and pure appearance.

In the next room, Song Junze and his sixth brother Song Junyu sat opposite each other. There was a cup of tea in front of them, but no one was interested in picking it up.

"Fourth Brother is just as cold and indifferent as ever."

After a long while, Song Junze sighed deeply, but Song Junyu, who was like a smiling tiger, shook his head and denied it: "No, Fourth Brother loves Fourth Sister-in-law very much. Do you still remember that the two sisters of the Lu family had an accident? That time, Fourth Brother went out of the city to rescue them and broke several ribs for it."

They should have realized from then on that Song Junyan had special feelings for Lu Xinran.

If they had discovered it at that time, they might have fought for it and gotten the marriage.

"Let's not talk about that. I just want to ask you, are you really sure that if we meet with them again and again, our voices will be heard?"

"Given Lu Xinran's love of watching excitement, she shouldn't have made a mistake, unless she wants to see an even bigger excitement."

However, he already had a backup plan, and for the sake of her good sister, Lu Xinran would not let the situation get out of control.

Song Junyu picked up the already cool tea, put it to his nose, sniffed it, and then put it down again in disgust.

With the system's prompts, Lu Xinran had listened to their conversation in full.

She recently discovered that if the contents of the booklet were read out by the system, others would not be able to hear their inner thoughts.

But the system is not as "intelligent" as her, so she still needs to deal with the more complicated melons by herself.

But this kind of live broadcast is not too difficult for the system.

"You, my sixth brother, are not simple."

After listening to the few sentences relayed by the system, Lu Xinran no longer had a good impression of Song Junyu.

The so-called back-up plan of this person is to disregard Lu Xinlan's reputation. Regardless of whether the original body had a past relationship with him, he used this kind of thing as a threat, which means that this person's character is extremely bad.

"He does have a lot on his mind."

"Heh," Lu Xinran sneered, "Doesn't he want to hear my true feelings? Then I'll do as they wish."

She didn't believe that the pasts of these two people could stand up to scrutiny.

She buried her head in flipping through the two booklets, especially the one belonging to Song Junyu. She had not read it carefully the day before, but this time she did not miss a single word.

[I didn't realize that Song Junyu had a talent for business. He has many businesses in Jiangnan.]

[There are many shops in Suzhou, Hangzhou, and Yangcheng, and they are all doing very well, especially in Yangcheng, where there are several brothels and boat shops.]

[He thought he was doing it very secretly and no one could find out, but no matter what you do, there will be traces. It all depends on whether others are paying attention! ]

She said these words with gritted teeth. If you want to use her, you have to be prepared to suffer backlash.

[Since he can run so many brothels and boat shops in Yangcheng, it shouldn't be difficult to get some skinny horses to the capital. And who knows the complicated relationships in the capital better than the prince?]

[Song Junhua was not wronged for being plotted against by his own brother. After all, it was intentional. Who would have thought that a person who looked innocent and harmless could hide so deeply behind the scenes.]

In the next room, half of the tea in Song Junze's tea bowl had already spilled.

He looked at Song Junyu in disbelief, the smile on his lips still not being wiped away.

So, this good brother in front of him not only schemed against his older brothers, but also schemed against him today, right?

Song Junyu was so shocked that he was speechless. He hid these things so deeply...how did Lu Xinran find them out!

It shouldn't be!

This was totally different from his plan.

[First, these skinny horses were used to seduce several of the emperor's brothers, and then they were sent to the back houses of many officials using different methods.]

[Relying on his pillow skills, he has received a lot of help this year and has completely established himself in the Ministry of Etiquette. 】

[However, the Ministry of Rites does not hold as much power as the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Personnel. If he wants to go to the Ministry of Revenue or the Ministry of Personnel, he must first make his brothers lose power.]

As for how she lost power, she did not say anything more, but those who could hear her thoughts had already filled in the blanks in their minds.

The second prince, Prince Chu, is in the Ministry of Personnel, and the third prince, Prince Jin, is in the Ministry of Revenue. No matter where he wants to jump to, he must first overthrow these two.

The best way is to kill two birds with one stone and make them all lose power in this turmoil.

When Lu Xinran saw this, he couldn't help but spit.

What kind of person is this? He actually wants to plot against her!
