"One wish per round?"
This brat!
Emperor Wenyuan said unhappily, "One wish per round. But the prerequisite is that it must be reasonable for me, and it cannot be used to select a princess."
Afraid that Mo Junran would lose his temper again, he added, "But I can promise you that I won't send anyone to your house without your consent, and you can eat vegetarian food however you want." He said "not casually," but he didn't say "not without consent."
Emperor Wenyuan thought.
Mo Junran glanced at the smiling Emperor Wenyuan and raised the corner of his lips: "Then your majesty must not regret it."
He sat down.
Emperor Wenyuan froze for a moment.
His eyes were fixed on Mo Junran who was sitting opposite him. Seeing the curve of his lips, his brows unconsciously frowned slightly.
But he didn't say anything.
Wait until lunch time.
The last piece of the second game was finally placed and White won.
Emperor Wenyuan rubbed his throbbing temples.
Looking at Mo Junran opposite him, who was twitching his lips from time to time, the expression on his face was really not very good-looking. The eunuch who was collecting the chess pieces on the side was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.
"No more!"
Emperor Wenyuan threw the black chess piece back into the chess pot and glanced at Mo Junran across from him with a speechless look: "Aran, you don't have to make that expression from time to time to scare me just to win. My heart really can't take it."
Mo Junran: “……?”
After lunch.
Emperor Wenyuan dismissed everyone.
Looking at Mo Junran: "Have you seen the booklet from earlier?"
"Um."
"Go check again."
There was a hint of something in Emperor Wenyuan's eyes, cold and profound. "I want to know, besides what's in the notebook, is there anything else I don't know... Later, have someone go to the Lu Mansion again and tell that old man Lu to shut up. Don't let that mouth of his die before he even retires."
…
Lu Mansion.
As soon as Mr. Lu got off the carriage, he saw his loyal servant hurriedly approaching him and said anxiously, "Sir, the old lady is waiting for you in the house! And, several other young ladies have also returned and are all crying in the house..."
Mr. Lu paused.
How could he not understand what was going on?
"Let's go in and take a look." He did not escape and walked into the gate with his loyal servant.
Just outside the main house.
First I heard a woman crying.
"Wow, Mom, what on earth is Dad trying to do? My husband said that his cousin is not even within the fifth degree of kinship. If he is really convicted, our whole family will be implicated and suffer. In serious cases, we might even be dismissed from office and exiled together..."
"Mother, I really can't live like this anymore. My husband started scolding me as soon as he came home today, regardless of the occasion. My mother-in-law and sisters-in-law also started to give me a hard time..."
"grandmother……"
Every cry was filled with complaints.
Everyone was blaming Old Lu for his actions today, which had implicated them and made their lives difficult.
Old Madam Lu sat in the main seat.
The face with traces of time had a gloomy expression, and looked very majestic at first glance.
Looking at her daughters and granddaughters crying in the house, she never said a word and just let them cry.
Until the announcement came that Mr. Lu had returned.
The crying in the house stopped.
"Master is back, come and sit down."
Madam Lu looked at Mr. Lu who came in, but did not stand up. She just sat in her seat and talked to Mr. Lu.
After Mr. Lu entered the room, he frowned.
He glanced at the people in the room.
He sat straight down next to his wife.
After sitting down, he tilted his head and asked, "What's going on?"
Madam Lu replied with a sullen face, "They all came to cry about what you did in the court today. They said your actions had implicated them, making it difficult for them to move forward in their husband's family and facing the cold stare of their husband's family."
What happened in the court has now spread.
After all, a large number of officials were imprisoned during the current dynasty, which caused quite a stir.
Upon hearing this, Mr. Lu frowned.
But before he could say anything, he heard his wife beside him speak again: "Alright, now your father and grandfather are back. Didn't you cry so hard just now? Didn't you have a lot of dissatisfaction in your hearts? Now you can speak out."
Wh-what?
The girl from the Lu family, who had just been crying her heart out, was stunned for a moment.
For a moment, the hall was silent.
"Since you all won't say anything, let me, an old woman, say it."
Madam Lu swept her cold gaze over the crowd and said, "Our Lu family's family has always been united in protecting the inner circle."
"Although you are all married women, I told you before you got married that your parents' family will always be your support. Since you feel that life in your husband's family is not comfortable and they are always giving you the cold shoulder, I am not afraid of what others say. Today I will send someone to your husband's family to speak on your behalf. If you feel that life in your husband's family is not comfortable, you can all return to your parents' family to live there."
"Even if your in-laws go too far, our Lu family can learn from the Third Young Master of the Zhenbei Marquisate and bring people to their door and ask them to write a letter of divorce for you..."
The more the Lu family girls listened, the wider their eyes became.
Especially Mrs. Lu’s eldest daughter, Lu Yueru.
She is the oldest among the women in this group, and she is actually already a grandmother...
"Mom, what are you talking about!"
"How could a woman get divorced so easily after getting married? How could she live with dignity after the divorce? Moreover, it would affect the future of her children..."
