Chapter 360 The Dog Emperor is Near Death

Pei family has also been waiting for news from Liu family during this period, but Tang family is so quiet that no news can be received.

Even the dowry that Lu Xinlan brought seemed to have disappeared on the spot, and they were not seen going out for some time.

Pei was vaguely worried, always afraid that Liu would vent her anger on the servants.

Most of the dowry that Lu Xinlan brought with him were children of the Lu family, and most of them were children of the housekeepers and respectable maids in the mansion.

I had originally gone to the Tang family thinking that I could become a respectable housekeeper and nanny in the future. If I lost my life again, there would probably be chaos in their house.

But this matter depends on who will lose patience. No matter how worried Pei is, they can only wait for the action from the Tang family.

Lu Xinran was also worried, but she had a system that made it easy for her to cheat.

As soon as Lu Xinlan expressed his concerns, she asked Song Junyan to help him check the whereabouts of Lu Jinchuan and Tang Quyan during this period.

Then he took an inconspicuous carriage and arrived at the back door of the Dali Temple before dusk.

To know what kind of medicine the Tang family is selling, just take a look at his booklet!

Just in case, she took a detour and loaded Lu Jinchuan's pamphlet as well.

"I knew that old guy would get in the way!"

After reading it, Lu Xinran couldn't help but burst into swearing, "He learned from your grandmother that you wouldn't change your mind easily, and he didn't want you and Li to cause rifts with the Tang family, so he discussed with Tang Quyan and wanted to delay this matter for now."

Even though it would be embarrassing for the Tang family to keep dragging it on like this, the consequences would be better than divorce.

Lu Xinlan had already guessed this and the result was not surprising. "That's fine."

If she waited until after the imperial examinations next year to get divorced, she would no longer owe Tang Chongli anything.

Lu Xinran snorted, apparently somewhat dissatisfied with the result, "What about your dowry? If Liu really snatches it away, won't it cause a lot of trouble when you divorce?"

"Don't worry, she can't take it away."

The managers of her estates and shops only recognized her seal, which was what she had repeatedly requested.

During this period, she also sent her servants to check on these industries and collected some of the account books. She also instructed that the account books and earnings must be sent to the Prince of Wei's Palace in the future.

These industries are the foundation. As for the gold, silver and other small items, they are all recorded on the dowry list. If Liu really touched them, she can just ask for them back according to the list when she leaves.

If she doesn't mind being embarrassed, she won't care about her face.

"She got a bargain!"

Lu Xinran groaned for a long time before he took her to write a letter and asked someone to send it to Lu Mansion to Pei.

When Song Junyan returned home in the evening, Lu Xinran told him about the trivial things that happened during the day and then asked about the emperor's condition.

"Father has been carefully managing the situation these days, and most of the court affairs have been handed over to a few ministers."

Speaking of the emperor, Song Junyan's expression became more serious. "I heard that... my father wants to seek immortals and learn about Taoism. Many monks and Taoists have entered the palace recently."

Lu Xinran: “…”

This method is really familiar!

"Could these people be arranged by Yunsong?"

"It should be his work. As for how many of his people did it," Song Junyan laughed sarcastically, then shook his head in disappointment: "It doesn't matter."

His father had become completely insane.

He was taking steps that a king who was about to lose his country would do.

If he has no intention, he will not care even if someone tempts him.

"Has Yunsong contacted you again during this period?"

Lu Xinran was a little curious. He hadn't seen that person for more than half a month, and all the booklets belonging to him in the system had disappeared.

Although they have analyzed a lot of details during this period, they still cannot analyze this person's subsequent actions.

All his actions seemed to be spontaneous, he would play wherever he wanted.

Song Junyan pursed his lips and shook his head slightly: "No, I haven't received any news from Eunuch Fu."

Yunsong seemed to have completely disappeared during this period of time, as if the turbulent water in the capital was not stirred up by him.

"Do you think we can lure him out if we go to Ruyi Tower again?"

"Ruyi Tower is closed."

It is not known whether Yunsong abandoned this place on his own initiative, or whether the emperor found out something and kept a close watch on this place.

He passed by the door of Ruyi Building a few days ago and found that the building was empty and the door was sealed.

"Well," Lu Xinran twisted her fingers. It was not a good feeling to just wait for changes and news. "Let's find a reason to enter the palace."

Go and see what's going on with the emperor these days, and also see whether the empress and the Zhang family behind her will still support Song Junyan.

"Wait a little longer, don't be impatient."

Now all parties are playing games, and even some of his brothers are trying to find ways to re-place people.

They still need to wait and see what happens.

Lu Xinran hummed in disappointment. Before, there were a lot of things going on and there was excitement every day so he didn't think much of it. Now that the excitement is over, what follows is just boring intrigue. It's just... so boring.

Seeing her pouting in disappointment, Song Junyan helplessly raised his hand and rubbed her head gently.

"The capital has never been peaceful, and it will get even more chaotic in the future. You should just stay in the mansion."

I'm afraid this peaceful life won't last long.

Thinking of the emperor's body that had been hollowed out and riddled with holes, she nodded in agreement.

If the Dog Emperor went crazy and started taking pills, he would be very close to death.

Thinking of this, her heart suddenly tightened, and she pulled his wrist with her backhand and asked seriously, "Do you have a weapon?"

It seems that it is very easy to die suddenly after taking elixirs. If the emperor died suddenly without leaving an edict of succession, then whoever entered the palace first would become the emperor?

Her question was so abrupt that Song Junyan was stunned for a moment before he replied solemnly, "Duke Zhang promised that if I were willing to let them return to the northwest after I ascended the throne and let the empress leave the palace with them, he would support me with his entire life and property."

His support naturally also includes the use of the military power in his hands.

"I will go to the palace tomorrow to deliver a sign and meet the empress and the queen mother first. If those Taoists really want to refine elixirs for the emperor to use, I'm afraid the weather will change by summer at the latest."

Song Junyan's heart skipped a few beats and his fingertips trembled slightly.

"Okay, I understand."

This day was originally thought to happen decades later, but no one would have thought it would be brought closer to this summer.

Thinking that Lu Jinchuan and his men were still trying to place their own people in various departments, he suddenly felt anxious.

He couldn't wait any longer.

Early the next morning, after Song Junyan went to attend the morning court, the two sisters packed up and prepared to enter the palace.

"Princess, there is a man outside who said his surname is Yun and he is an old friend of yours. He wants to come to the mansion to see you."

Last name Yun?

The two sisters looked at each other, and both had a bad feeling in their hearts.

"Go and bring the person here quickly."
