Chapter 311 Mother Has a Way
Lu Qiniang couldn't help but burst into tears.
But she didn't dare cry out loud.
Her child still has to rely on her for support.
No matter who falls, my mother cannot fall.
She could only hug tightly this daughter who had never given her any worries and made her feel hurt from the bottom of her heart, and stroke her thin back again and again.
She was so careless. She had only thought that Daya was worried about Jiang Xuan and had never thought of any other possibilities.
She didn't even know that her daughter had become so thin.
Daya cried heart-wrenchingly.
Erya couldn't help but lift the door curtain and look into the room, her bright black eyes covered with a layer of worry.
Lu Qiniang shook her head silently at her, motioning her to go back.
Erya lowered the door curtain, thought for a moment, and stood there without moving.
She knew something must have happened.
Hiding everything from her, hiding everything from her!
But mom doesn’t know either, alas, they can no longer keep up with dad and elder sister.
"What's going on?" Yun Ting heard Daya's crying and came out of the house, but unexpectedly saw two dark shadows in the yard.
Is there a thief?
Fortunately, he recognized Xiao Yan's figure, and then with the faint light coming from the room, he slowly made out Jiang Xuan's appearance.
"No, what's going on?" Yun Ting came over and said, "Jiang Xuan, you are not a bastard, bullying Zhao Zhao!"
"Be quiet." Xiao Yan said, "Go back to the house."
Yun Ting: ???
What? As the uncle, he can’t even say a word for Zhao Zhao?
"What happened?" Seeing the two men acting suspiciously, Yun Ting lowered his voice. "Did the couple have a fight? Look how angry Zhao Zhao is. I've never seen Zhao Zhao so upset."
"Go back first, I'll tell you later." Xiao Yan said.
He didn't want to involve Yun Ting.
"No, I won't." Yun Ting didn't listen.
Xiao Yan could only let him do as he pleased.
So, Daya hugged Lu Qin's mother, and Erya wiped her tears behind the door curtain.
Outside the house, three grown men stood straight with different expressions on their faces.
——Xiao Yan’s face was solemn, Jiang Xuan’s eyes were red, and Yun Ting was puzzled.
Daya cried for a long time and her eyes were swollen.
Lu Qi Niang patted her gently and asked, "Do you feel better now?"
Daya nodded, but still couldn't bear to let go.
She longed for her mother's embrace.
Lu Qiniang sat by herself on the kang, holding her in her arms. "Your father told me that the prince has taken a fancy to you and wants you to break off the engagement. Otherwise, he will have to deal with our family and the Jiang family in the future, right?"
Yun Ting's eyes were instantly filled with "Oh shit".
He looked at Xiao Yan in shock and asked him silently - is there such a thing?
Xiao Yan nodded.
Yun Ting: The bastard turned out to be the prince.
I didn't realize that boy was so mean and mean.
"Well, mother, he's a man who can even hurt himself. He always does what he says." Daya said, "No matter how close Jiang Xuan and I are, we can't ignore each other's families."
"Isn't there the Emperor above the Crown Prince?" Lu Qiniang asked, "Why are you panicking?"
"The Emperor always favors his own children. Mother, that's human nature, especially since the Crown Prince embodies the Emperor's feelings for the late Empress."
"It's okay to be partial, but you can't go against your conscience." Lu Qiniang said, "The emperor is also a reasonable man. If his child has a problem, he must know it and make sure he can correct it. He should also give other children a chance to survive, right?"
Yun Ting shook his head silently.
Abandoned mother, still too naive.
Daya said, "Mom, forget it. If both of you can be safe, don't take the risk."
"Be well on your own? If it's really as you said, with the prince's personality, he will still hold a grudge even if you separate. You can't let him gain power. Once he does, he will dig up everything about you. In my opinion, the offense has been committed, so don't think about making amends." Lu Qiniang said.
Daya was stunned for a moment, then lowered her eyes and said, "We can only think positively."
Everything that should be done has been done.
"Look at you, why are you so timid? Since you've already offended me, then go ahead and do it. Listen to me," Lu Qiniang said, "First of all, let's save the marriage. At least for now, let's give the prince a way out and stabilize him temporarily, and then we can get married. I'll ask Old Hu how long the emperor's health can hold out. One year is one year, right? Maybe the emperor can hold out for another ten or twenty years! Maybe the prince will die first!"
Everyone: “…”
"Mom, are you saying that we are going to assassinate the prince?" Daya said in disbelief.
"No," Lu Qiniang said, "If you kill someone, shouldn't you pay with your life? I said it's possible. People can get sick even if they eat all kinds of grains. Besides, there's no one young or old on the road to the underworld, so how can everyone die, but not him?"
It turns out to be a curse...
"Besides, the Emperor has so many sons, why does he have to be the only one? The Emperor is blinded by his own eyesight, but he's so arrogant towards you just because you're the Crown Prince? He must be the same in other aspects too. If the Emperor finds out, no matter how much you miss the late Queen and how much you favor the Crown Prince, does that mean he won't care about the kingdom our ancestors gave him?"
Yes, even a tiger won’t eat its own cubs. Perhaps no matter what big mistake the prince made, the emperor would spare his life.
But that’s where it ends.
The emperor was not so foolish that he gave the throne to the prince even after knowing his true nature and that he was a madman.
What to do for him?
Give him some fun!
Even if the emperor thinks so, the people around him have to persuade him. If that doesn't work, they have to force him to change his mind.
In short, no matter what, the prince is still the prince. Whether he can become the emperor and when he can become the emperor are still two different things to say, right?
Everyone will die, so should we not live a good life because of this?
"Mom, let's just be prepared for the worst. What if he holds a grudge against us and a river of blood is shed? The consequences are beyond our ability to bear."
"Why not? I've told your father that if he's that stupid, it won't just be one family that's going to die, it'll be millions of families. We'll all die together, and that's it. Before he dies, maybe we can still deal with him. At worst, he'll rebel."
"Mother..." Daya smiled bitterly, "That's not as simple as just one sentence."
Not to mention that Xiao Yan is still a commoner now, even before, when he was General Po Lu, it would be difficult for him to say this word easily.
The imperial court values civil officials over military officials. General Po Lu enjoys a great reputation among the people, but within the imperial court—
I'm afraid it's not as powerful as Zhang Heyao's current power.
If rebellion was just a thought, people would have rebelled long ago.
"You don't have to think so much. I think you and your father think so much because you know too much. Just listen to me. I'll think of a way for you. Let's coax the prince and ask the emperor to help us. Let's get the marriage done first, and we can save face. As for the future, there's no point thinking about it now. Besides, if you think so much, what will you do in the future?"
"To appease the prince?"
"Yes, coax him." Lu Qiniang said, "Isn't it just like coaxing a child? I don't think it's that difficult."
