Chapter 263 Departure to Southern Xinjiang
During this period, Wang Min and Yuan Wanru were unable to sit together and have a good talk.
Wang Min took the initiative to mention Lu Wei: "Mom doesn't know if she is crazy to do such a thing."
"No matter how Jiang Nian treats her, it's a matter between them. Don't worry about it, and I won't either."
"You reap what you sow. I've come to terms with that."
Although Lu Jiangnian, the younger brother, doesn't say it, he is really good to Lu Wei.
Wang Min has seen all of this over the years, so Lu Wei's behavior is indeed disheartening.
"It's not that I'm trying to shirk responsibility. It's just that when she was little, your father and I had a conflict, and the old lady took Wei'er away in order to control me."
"I was young at the time and didn't think it through, so I just let it go. Later, Wei'er became very close to the old lady."
"Her personality is somewhat influenced by her grandmother."
Speaking of this, Wang Min's eyes turned red and she looked very lonely.
Yuan Wanru didn't know what to say, and for a moment, the room was very quiet.
After a long time, Wang Min came back to her senses. She pinched her eyes and said with a smile: "Okay, let's not talk about her anymore. You don't have to care about her in the future."
"As long as you and Jiang Nian are doing well, Mom will be happy."
As she spoke, she suddenly looked at Yuan Wanru seriously and said, "Don't worry, unless you both have no children by the time you are 40, I will never let a third person appear between you."
Although she and Lu Song are in love now, she sometimes feels sad when she thinks about the things that happened when she was young.
Being together for life was her original hope and also Lu Song’s promise.
But, in the end, they didn't do it.
But sometimes, people just have to be a little confused, otherwise, they won’t be able to live like this.
Wanru is the child she watched grow up. Why should she let her go through the same grievances she had suffered again?
Even a rational person like Yuan Wanru couldn't help but be moved by Wang Min.
She is really a sensible mother who loves her younger generations.
"Thank you, mother."
Wang Min stroked her head and said lovingly, "Silly girl, why thank me? In my heart, you are my own flesh and blood. It is my duty to love you."
Liang Shangjiong thought that this matter had been covered up.
However, Lu Jiangnian turned around and told the prince.
Anyway, since Yuan Wanru didn't tell anyone, it doesn't count as a breach of contract.
East Palace.
The prince had a puzzled look on his face. He stared at the rising smoke for a long time without saying a word.
"The Liang family is too confused."
Lu Jiangnian waited for a long time before he heard him utter this sentence.
He sneered: "Your Highness, this comment is too biased and not fair at all."
"A glimpse of the whole picture reveals the whole picture. To frame two innocent women and make them serve a useless man is such a cruel and unscrupulous thing. It is not something that an ordinary person can do."
"Everyone says that the eldest branch of the Liang family is kind and generous. Liang Shangjiong was suppressed by a half-brother, but for the sake of filial piety, he had no regrets and fled the capital. It is really admirable."
"But now that I think about it, many things are strange."
"Your Highness, do you still remember Liang Si?"
The prince searched his memory for a moment, "Of course I remember."
Lu Jiangnian said bluntly: "Among so many people in the Liang family, Liang Si was the most spiritual one, but he died."
"If the Liang family's second branch is really so domineering, how could Liang Si's death be silent?"
At the beginning, when it was rumored that Liang Si was drowned at home, the prince felt it was a pity.
The prince raised his eyes and looked directly into Lu Jiangnian's dark eyes: "What do you want to say?"
Lu Jiangnian looked back at him with bright eyes: "Your Highness, the people of the Liang family may be different from what we see. In short, be more careful."
The prince was silent for a while, then smiled and said, "Everyone has selfish desires. It's understandable that they have selfish desires."
"Now it seems that they were also upset by Liang Zhi's incident. They usually behave themselves and correct their mistakes."
Everyone has selfish desires. No matter what, the Liang family is on the same side as the prince. As long as they don't commit crimes or break the law, the prince won't care too much.
Lu Jiangnian remained calm and composed: "Maybe you are right, but what I am thinking is that the Liang family's eldest branch is usually very good at pretending. I am worried that they are also pretending to be nice to Your Highness."
The prince frowned, "What do you mean?"
Lu Jiangnian smiled and said something that almost made the prince jump up in anger: "The Second Prince has the blood of the Liang family in his body. Who knows who the Liang family really supports in their hearts?"
This sentence was clearly an attempt to sow discord between the Crown Prince and the Second Prince.
If the man in front of him was not his most trusted friend, the prince would have had him kicked out.
"Lu Jiangnian."
He frowned angrily and shouted coldly at the man who was still calm and composed, "Do you know what you are talking about?"
Lu Jiangnian raised his eyebrows slightly: "Your Highness, I just made a reasonable guess based on the facts in front of me. It's up to you whether you believe it or not."
The prince didn't want to hear him talk about these things: "Alright, you are just overthinking, go back first."
Lu Jiangnian followed suit and stood up, "Goodbye."
Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will always take root and sprout.
When he pours some more water, Your Highness will understand that there is always a reason for the empty words.
-
In the cold winter, the New Year is approaching.
This New Year was very peaceful. After the New Year, Yuan Wanru received a letter from Nanjiang County.
Lu Jiangnian told her that he had asked for leave from the emperor and sent her to Nanjiang County.
"What, you want to go to Southern Xinjiang with me?"
The sudden news shocked her. "Three or four months, what did the emperor say?"
Lu Jiangnian handed her the letter written by Xuanfeng: "I told the emperor that the tokens that led to Zhao Liangfeng's death were related to the mysterious organization in southern Xinjiang. The emperor has issued a secret order and asked me to track down the clues."
"That's perfect. You can use the excuse of leaving to cover for me."
Yuan Wanru was really impressed by him. He was the one who killed Zhao Liangfeng. Even after he was dead, he still used him again and again.
But it's not bad that he can go along.
"Okay, then we'll set off in the next two days."
Lu Jiangnian said, "I plan to leave the medicine that can suppress the poison to the prince."
"We have been away from the capital for quite some time. I am worried that something has happened to the Crown Prince. Although he has some doubts about what I told him last time, many times, it is difficult to guard against the means of poisoning, so we must always be fully prepared."
Yuan Wanru also agreed with his approach.
In short, he is responsible for arranging matters outside.
It is worth mentioning that before they left the capital, the Cao sisters were also sent back to Xu County.
The wedding date has been set for September this year. There is not much point in them staying in the capital. They might as well return to their hometown in Xu County, embroider their wedding dresses and wait for the wedding. This way they can stay away from Liang Yusong.
On the day of departure, Su Shaodong almost dropped his jaw when he saw Lu Jiangnian.
"Didn't you say he wasn't going?"
