"Butler Su, it's been a long time."
Uncle Wei's tone was filled with nostalgia and sighs. No one could have imagined what happened eighteen years ago, and this reunion eighteen years later was an even stranger beginning.
"Yes, it's been a long time. Eighteen years have passed since we last met. I never imagined that Mr. Wei would marry the Empress."
Back then, Mr. Wei was very fond of Su Guo, but unexpectedly, after Su Guo passed away, he turned around and married the Empress. This was quite a unique move.
So, he's never liked it, but that doesn't stop him from coming to see me now.
Butler Su looked at Lord Wei and said, "I wonder why you summoned me here? We don't seem to need to have any interaction."
Lord Wei pursed his lips. Over the years, the Empress hadn't touched him. Although she had given him the position of Lord, it wasn't good at all.
He wanted royal power, and the Empress granted it to him as compensation for Su Guo's death. She transferred her guilt over Su Guo's death onto Wei Guang, even though Wei Guang had been regarded as a wicked concubine all these years and countless people wanted to kill him.
The Empress also always protected him.
But he suddenly realized that the wealth and status he had been so eager for before didn't seem so interesting anymore. "She really is Su Guo's daughter. I just want to ask, whose genes did she use?"
The old man stared at the ground as if he could drill a hole in it, pack up Lord Wei, throw him in, and bury him until he rotted away.
“She is His Highness’s daughter, so naturally she uses His Highness’s genes. Lord Wei’s mind isn’t working properly; he should go see a doctor.”
Lord Wei gripped the uncle's arm tightly, almost as if he were about to break it, but after meeting the uncle's gaze, he awkwardly let go.
"Of course I know it's Su Guo's genes. I asked my partner, 'My partner, is it me?'"
Lord Wei's eyes held a hopeful look, but the uncle simply snorted coldly, "Wishful thinking!"
"How could the Empress use your genes? Ridiculous."
He left Lord Wei's residence in a huff after saying that. Lord Wei sat in his chair, not reacting for a long time, and then suddenly slapped his thigh.
"It must be, it must be."
At the time, Su Guo didn't have any other boys she liked. Before she left, she even took a strand of her own hair. Lu Yulan must be his child, so that means...
...
Su Guo's residence.
Holding the red wine and gently swirling it, I have to admit, the wine invented by that bunch of gibberish isn't actually that bad.
At least upon closer examination, it's not bad.
Upon hearing the uncle's report, Su Guo's lips curled into a contemptuous smile. Wei Ming had always been so stupid; he had never liked her, nor had he realized it.
She wouldn't have pretended to like Wei Ming if it weren't to lower his guard and make the plan go smoothly.
However, things are good now.
Wei Ming holds one-tenth of the royal family's decision-making power, and he has the right to vote.
"How many people have we convinced so far?"
"one third."
Su Guo frowned; she thought it should be two-thirds.
"Spread the news that Su Chen colluded with Bai Shan to frame the Lu family. I want to hold an election meeting in a week."
Before the Lu family army arrived, Lu Yuanhong was too clever; she worried that something might go wrong.
Uncle: "Isn't a week too fast? We can wait until the situation stabilizes."
Su Guo waved his hand dismissively, "No need, I can't wait to taste the fruits of victory."
The further they go, the greater the variables become. Su Chen is no pushover; the fact that the uncle met Wei Ming today is probably already on her desk.
