Chapter 383 Damn, flatterer!
He was somewhat delighted and somewhat unconvinced. The prince had just said that he had never even held hands with her. What nonsense! He had clearly done so many times!
I'm so angry. I didn't refute him just now.
However, Prince Yan does not have the time to compete with the Crown Prince now.
Yan Xing was about to say something to live up to the sweet atmosphere, but then Lu Xueyin urged him, "Hurry up and tell me, what's the good news?"
Yan Xing sighed helplessly. What could he do? Lu Xueyin was completely focused on her official duties.
Yan Xingdao said, "The Crown Prince has already agreed to abdicate in your favor. However, he has three requirements."
Yan Xing then recounted the Crown Prince's requests. As expected, Lu Xueyin agreed to the first two. These weren't particularly demanding requests; even if the Crown Prince hadn't mentioned them, Lu Xueyin would have done so anyway. Treating the Crown Prince well was also a way of expressing her benevolence, ensuring the Crown Prince's abdication would be justified.
Although it was not legitimate for the Crown Prince to abdicate, it was legitimate for the Emperor to abdicate. However, everyone unanimously ignored Emperor Qianyuan. After all, he had been ill and didn't have many days left to live, so it was better not to bother him with such a serious matter.
Lu Xueyin did not speak until Yan Xing mentioned the third request, which was to make him the emperor's husband.
Yan Xing was a little anxious: "What? Am I not worthy of Lord Lu, and Lord Lu doesn't like me?"
Lu Xueyin said, "You know that's not what I meant, but this matter really needs to be considered carefully."
Yan Xing looked at her with gloomy eyes, the same look as when he looked at an irresponsible scumbag who only knew how to sweet-talk. Oh, this is a scumbag woman.
But the essence is the same.
Lu Xueyin believed that she was upright and could not bear such a serious crime.
She said, "If you become the emperor's husband, how will you lead the army to war in the future? If you are locked up in the harem..." Why did she say this so strangely? But why did she feel so inexplicably proud?
"In short, letting you stay in the harem is indeed unfair to you. But if you continue to lead the troops to fight, I am afraid that the civil and military officials in the court will not be willing. So I say that this matter needs to be considered in the long run. How can we allow you to continue to lead the troops and how can we convince the officials?"
Yan Xing just looked at her quietly and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips.
"It turns out that you have thought so far ahead and made so many plans for me." Yan Xing was deeply moved.
Lu Xueyin: “???”
Well, Yan Xing is quite easily moved.
Lu Xueyin said seriously, "Since you are with me, I must consider everything for you and won't let you suffer any injustice."
Yan Xing felt that this was a bit awkward, but he ignored it. He was happy to finally be able to see her plans for their future.
Lu Xueyin wrote to Gao Ming, urging him to make early plans for the throne. She intended to ascend the throne upon Emperor Qianyuan's death, and the Crown Prince would not be involved. As for Emperor Qianyuan's current situation... there was no rush; it was a matter of time. While she was still preparing for the situation, it was okay for him to be alive.
Gao Ming, Wei Dong, Tan Feng, Ji Ping, Zhao Xi, Cao Wenkai, and Chen Songyuan. Chen Songyuan was originally sent to deliver supplies to Lu Xueyin. Normally, he didn't need to go personally to deliver the supplies, but he hadn't seen Lu Xueyin for a long time, and it was time to connect with his master. So he took the opportunity to deliver the New Year gifts and came to Lin'an Prefecture in person.
In the past few years, Chen Songyuan has not been with Lu Xueyin. He has been in charge of Quzhou, but his contributions are not small.
He was Lu Xueyin's chief steward, controlling her purse strings. All requests for money and supplies had to go through him. Even when Lu Xueyin wasn't around, no one dared to underestimate him. He and Gao Ming, the Ningzhou governor, were considered Lu Xueyin's two most trusted confidants.
As soon as Chen Songyuan arrived, everyone respected him very much, and Lu Xueyin was also very happy.
This is the most complete staffing the Lu system has had in recent years.
Lu Xueyin said that the prince was planning to give up the throne to her, and the most important thing now was to make all preparations.
Chen Songyuan was overjoyed: "This is truly great news. Congratulations, sir. You are the popular choice, and it is God's will. With you here, we will surely usher in a peaceful and prosperous era."
Damn, this flatterer.
Lu Xueyin couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, her face full of joy.
My lord just happens to fall for this and likes to hear sweet words.
