Chapter 334 He Won’t Live Long

Du Liang was originally a staunch supporter of the Grand Prince's party. Song Junhe was able to secretly raise troops thanks to the help Du Liang provided in terms of money and materials.

Song Junhe had been abandoned by the emperor before, and he was able to extricate himself in time thanks to the emperor's preference and protection for him.

He was decisive. He cut off contact with Song Junhe as soon as he left the capital. The situation in the court had changed a lot over the past year, and he had been observing the weight of several princes in the emperor's heart.

In his heart, he preferred the Third Prince Song Junhua, but he was afraid that he would make the wrong bet again this time, so even though he had already made up his mind, he was still prepared to wait a little longer.

[Well, Prince Jin is indeed a good choice. After all, the dog emperor likes him, and he and Song Junhe grew up fighting each other.]

[But if you choose sides now, do you think the emperor is too weak to live for many more years? ]

[It is not wrong to think so. The emperor is weak now. He needs to drink poison to quench his thirst. He has to take the aphrodisiac. But it won't work if he takes it. Tsk.]

emperor:"……"

How come he doesn't know that he only has a few years left to live!

All the initial tentativeness and doubts in my heart turned into anger and panic because of these words.

How could this guy say he wouldn't live for many years?

Can the system even see these?

His expression changed again and again, and he no longer cared to ask about the details of today and what Du Liang had done in the past few years.

Lu Xinran secretly looked up at the emperor, and when he saw that his face was as dark as if he had been poisoned, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the emperor was suspicious and his mind was changeable, so he was always attracted by her next words.

Then she turned around and forgot what she was saying before. Of course, it can't be said that she forgot to explore it at this moment, and this was enough for her.

She secretly tugged at Song Junyan's sleeve, wanting to ask him if he still needed to continue flipping through Du Liang's booklet.

Song Junyan glanced at the emperor who was already beginning to be frightened, and drew the word "no" on her palm with his finger.

Given the emperor's current state of mind, even if he were to go over in detail all that Du Liang had done over the years, he would probably not be in the mood to listen.

Lu Xinran secretly breathed a sigh of relief as he no longer needed his father Du Liang's booklet.

I can't talk too much about key information, but I can't say nothing either, and I have to grab the emperor's attention... It's so difficult.

At this moment, the emperor felt uncomfortable all over, especially somewhere in his lower body. Thinking of what Lu Xinran said about taking her pill, he had to take it, but it wouldn't work either, a surge of evil fire surged towards his lower body.

At this moment, he just wanted to go to the harem to find a concubine and try again to see if he could still show his prowess.

The couple watched him quickly leave the Wenhua Hall, and then stood up from the ground together.

"Can we go home now?"

"Let's go."

If the emperor has new ideas in the future, given his current reckless way of doing things, he will summon them into the palace again.

Under Du Liang's astonished gaze, the two of them walked away arm in arm.

Du Liang sat paralyzed on the ground, looking at the bluestone slabs in a daze. They were gone...what should he do?

If the emperor comes back later, won’t he have to face the emperor’s wrath alone?

The two of them left Wenhua Hall and quickly left the palace, got on the carriage and returned to Prince Wei's Mansion.

As soon as he entered the door, he heard that Lu Xinlan was here. Lu Xinran was surprised and immediately left Song Junyan and ran to the main courtyard to look for him.

"Why is my sister here?" Lu Xinran asked, and a thought suddenly popped up in his mind: "Is Liu bothering you again?"

Lu Xinlan's face darkened, and thinking that it would be difficult to hide what happened in the mansion from her, she picked out the key points and told them again.

"This old thing! She's always looking for trouble with you!"

They were so ferocious in Ruyi Tower today. Any normal person would have been concerned, but Liu actually took the opportunity to vent her anger!

Why didn’t I realize that this person was so narrow-minded before we got married?

"She has been in charge of the Tang family for many years. Her mother-in-law is soft and easy to control. Mr. Tang has been working in the Dali Temple for many years and rarely returns home. Other people in the mansion respect her in every way. She hasn't had anyone disobey her like this for a long time."

"You don't want to have a child right after you get married. Does that count as disobeying her? Who does she think she is? You are the only one who can risk your life for the descendants of the Tang family?"

Lu Xinran became even angrier, and rolled up his sleeves to go to the Tang residence to fight with Liu.

Lu Xinlan hurriedly pulled her along: "This matter is not urgent, and there is no need to talk about it. Right now, it is more important to solve Yunsong's problem."

"But Liu is a person who can't stand being bullied. If you come out like this and threaten to divorce, do you think she will go to the Lu residence and complain to Grandmother?"

Lu Xinran felt guilty and distressed when she thought that after careful selection, she still chose such a crappy family for her good sister.

Lu Xinlan, on the other hand, didn't care. "She will go, and grandma won't make things difficult for you and me. Don't worry, grandma is no longer the old lady of the Lu Mansion. If Liu goes... I'm afraid she will be scolded by grandma and mother."

Considering Pei's veiled way of speaking and Zhao's original intention to compete with Liu, if Liu really went to Lu's house, she would be furious.

And if she really caused trouble at Lu's house, then she would have to divorce him.

Life is but a few short years, and she doesn't want to waste the rest of her life entangled with such a mother-in-law.

Seeing that she was unwilling to talk about it anymore, Lu Xinran was still worried, but he changed the subject just in time when Song Junyan came in.

"I have already sent a message to the Yun family, asking them to find an opportunity to leave Beijing today, put everything in Beijing aside for the time being, and find a safe place to hide first. My uncle has already replied to my message, saying that he will take his family out of Beijing today."

"Very good!"

Lu Xinran originally wanted to send a message to the Yun family, but after she came back, she had been looking for Yunsong's broken hair, and was suddenly summoned to the palace by the emperor, so she had no time to send a message to the Yun family.

As long as the Yun family can escape the disaster for the time being, even if Yunsong's identity can no longer be concealed in the next few days, they will not have to worry about their lives for the time being.

She recounted in detail what had just happened in the palace, especially the emperor's thoughts.

"The emperor is a little weaker than the last time I entered the palace. He must have secretly taken the aphrodisiac again."

Did you steal it again?

Lu Xinlan and Song Junyan both looked solemn upon hearing this.

"Wouldn't that mean it would be hard to maintain even after a few years?"

"Yes, unless he can completely stop thinking about it and focus on his recovery, otherwise, ah."

Although Lu Xinran didn't understand what the imperial physician meant by that long paragraph of pathology he spoke so proudly, she could feel his helplessness and the emperor's growing madness.

"We have to prepare early."
