Chapter 355 Why Don't You Want to Be Called an Unfilial Son?

They complained in their hearts, but they couldn't guess Yunsong's actions. The three of them sat around the round table, all with their heads down, thinking about countermeasures.

"You said, could the Emperor's vomiting of blood be part of his plan?"

Lu Xinran even felt like he was deifying someone.

Lu Xinlan just shook his head and said solemnly: "It's probably just a coincidence. Even if he has spies among the imperial physicians, he can't precisely control the emperor's physical condition."

The emperor's fainting and vomiting of blood should only be a probabilistic event. If it was really part of his calculations, he would definitely have a countermeasure later instead of just sending them a letter full of accusations and instructions.

"It's better to remain unchanged in the face of all changes. As for the emperor," Song Junyan paused for a moment, "we don't know who are the people he has placed around him, so even if we want to remind him of something, it's easy to backfire."

So the best thing to do is for them to just pretend they didn't receive the letter.

They didn't notice the accusations from above, and certainly didn't notice what they were asked to do.

Lu Xinran snorted, feeling disgusted when he thought of Yunsong's arrogant and controlling look.

If possible, she just wanted to give that guy two slaps.

And they still cooperate with him. This kind of people are as cunning as fishing nets. Who knows whether they are really cooperating or just want to use them to achieve some purpose.

The information in hand was limited, and the three of them could not discuss any more details, so Lu Xinlan got up and returned to the courtyard where she had lived for the past few days.

Song Junyan knew that she was leaving, so he spoke hesitantly.

"She... do you really think divorce is the best solution?"

"What else?" Lu Xinran looked at him speechlessly, "Or do you have a better way to get rid of Liu? She is Tang Chongli's biological mother. Even if they broke up, and Tang Quyan really divorced Liu as I said, then she is no longer Tang Chongli's biological mother?"

As long as we cannot break away from the blood connection, this problem has no solution.

Song Junyan frowned even more tightly, and under Lu Xinran's warning gaze, he carefully considered his words and spoke again.

"But don't you two care about nothing? From my impression, you two don't care about reputation, which is what others care about the most.

"Since you don't care and are willing to bear the stigma of divorce and causing a rift between the Lu and Tang families, why aren't you willing to bear the stigma of being unfilial?

"As long as you are willing to throw away the constraints of filial piety and ignore whatever Liu says or does, then her influence will no longer exist, right?"

As long as you just treat Liu as air and ignore her words and actions, then the frustration and grievance will disappear, right?

He asked sincerely, he really wanted to find out what these two sisters were thinking.

Lu Xinran was surprised by his question. He stared at him in a daze for a long time, and suddenly slapped him in excitement.

"Sure enough! They say those in power are always confused. Now I finally understand what this sentence means!"

She lifted up her skirt and ran out excitedly.

She could see that her sister had feelings for Tang Chongli, and she was reluctant to ruin Tang Chongli's future because of this incident.

But she was really tired of Liu and didn't want to have any contact with her anymore, so she wanted to divorce her and be done with it.

However, Song Junyan's words were also a compromise.

She rushed into Lu Xinlan's room, repeated what Song Junyan had just said in front of her astonished eyes, and then left quickly without caring about Lu Xinlan's reaction.

Lu Xinlan was left alone in the room to think about what to do.

The entire capital city was in an uproar because of Lu Xinran's words today.

In the palace of Prince Jin, Song Junhua invited all the court officials who supported him openly or secretly to his palace.

If the emperor's health really cannot survive until the end of the year, then every day from now on is crucial for them.

The Minister of Rites Du Liang, who had been hesitating and had not decided which side to take, was invited by him to sit on the main seat.

In the palaces of the other princes, their supporting court officials were nervously discussing countermeasures.

Song Junyan's place was the same as usual. No carriages were seen coming in or out of the front or back door of Prince Wei's mansion. It seemed that today's incident had no effect on the couple.

In the palace, the emperor, who had been keeping an eye on the movements of his sons, looked even darker as he heard the news.

Do these guys really think he is going to die soon?

He was just hurt by the pill, he wasn't going to die immediately as Lu Xinran said!

He could feel that although his body was not as strong as before, as long as he followed the conditioning methods listed by the imperial physician, and then... stopped using the pill, and began to cultivate his body and mind, he believed that he would be able to recover!

"Go and give me a list of the officials who went to the various royal palaces today!"

Aren’t these people anxious?

Since you want to learn the merit of following the dragon, then go to a bitter and cold place to sober up first!

Eunuch Fu bowed his head and accepted the order. Without delay, he immediately ground ink and picked up his pen to list the names of the officials he had just heard.

He just kept it in mind, and while the emperor was weak and had been closing his eyes to rest, he quickly copied out a copy of the list, preparing to find an opportunity to hand it to Song Junyan.

The next morning, when everyone thought that the emperor would rest for a few days and would not attend the morning court again, the emperor came in a jade sedan chair. Behind him, Eunuch Fu held the imperial edict in his hands. While everyone knelt to pay their respects, he unfolded the edict and began to read it.

All the officials who had entered the princes' palaces yesterday were on the imperial edict, and the list was handed over to the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple, requiring Lu Jinchuan and Tang Chongli to conduct a joint thorough investigation.

As for what was not mentioned in the imperial edict, everyone was shaking with fear, knowing that their actions the day before had angered the emperor.

Du Liang's eyes rolled back and he fainted.

He is the only one who is mentioned specifically and his crimes are listed one by one.

The emperor had let him go several times before, but this time he lost his last bit of tolerance.

Lu Jinchuan and Tang Quyan looked at the imperial edict that the two of them were holding in front of them, their expressions solemn but also a little embarrassed.

The younger generation at home is quarreling and getting a divorce... The family affairs have not been properly dealt with, and now they have to work together to thoroughly investigate the "crimes" of these people on the list.

Without tacit understanding and common interests, how can they join forces?

After the morning court was over, while Tang Quyan was still hesitating about how to start the conversation, Lu Jinchuan had already taken the initiative to invite him to his house for a chat.

It is impossible to divorce. Even if Tang Quyan and Liu divorce, he will not let Lu Xinlan and Tang Chongli divorce.

Therefore, embarrassment will disappear if you grit your teeth!

At least... Pei is a legitimate lady who is dignified and steady in both appearance and character, completely different from Liu!

Lu Jinchuan thought of what Lu Xinran had said in his heart the day before, and was already wondering if Lu Xinran couldn't persuade him to divorce, how should he persuade Tang Quyan to divorce his wife for the sake of his son!
