Chapter 291 Finalization
Su Qingwan chuckled and glanced at the Lu family. She was familiar with them. She had even greeted the elders and had had exchanges with them during sacrifices. In fact, except for Lin and Lu Feng, her impression of the Lu family was not that bad. She didn't want to slam everyone, so she maintained her courtesy, "Lin, please be careful with your words. I am not your eldest sister-in-law, so you can insult me. I am the princess of Huainan, and my rank is much higher than Lu Shaoqing. You can't afford to insult me without reason."
Her tone was very serious and intimidating. Lin felt a little scared when she heard it. She didn't dare to provoke her, let alone provoke her verbally. She just looked at Lu Shaoqing for help, hoping that Lu Shaoqing could do justice. She believed that the evidence was irrefutable and no one would want Lu Jing to bear the infamy.
Lu Shaoqing took a deep breath and suppressed the doubts in his heart, "You...are you really the Princess of Huainan?"
"It's absolutely genuine!" Su Qingwan said calmly, "The late emperor had seen me before he passed away and confirmed my identity. The eldest princess can also prove my identity. If I'm not the Princess of Huainan, then who else could I be? I just didn't expect that after coming to the capital, I would be mistaken for someone else. Do Xie Zhaolan and I really look alike? You'd better look carefully."
Her voice was gentle, but the pressure was not to be underestimated. She clearly did not admit that she was Xie Zhaolan, and she had already visited the Lu family. If they thought she was Xie Zhaolan, they had to provide evidence. If they said she was the Princess of Huainan, they could not use Xie Zhaolan's identity to make a fuss in the future. This matter should have been resolved by Lu Jing. Su Qingwan did not want Lu Jing to be really deserted by his friends and relatives, so she had to visit him. She also did not want to be entangled in these trivial matters. As Lu Jing said, they would not live together in the future, so they should be well.
The Lu family looked left and right and they all thought she was Xie Zhaolan, but no one dared to say it.
Lu Feng knew what Lu Shaoqing was thinking. Even if there was evidence that Su Qingwan was Xie Zhaolan, he might not listen. He was more concerned about whether Lu Jing would be affected.
"She's lying. Father, mother, uncles, Xie Zhaolan and I have been married for many years. There is no way I would mistake her. She is Xie Zhaolan."
"My Lord, you have been married to Xie Zhaolan for several years, but later you fell in love with someone else and allowed your new love to kill your old love. This matter has caused a great uproar in the city. How well do you know your first wife? My identity was recognized by the late emperor and the eldest princess, not something you can say with just a few words. Do others believe you or the late emperor and the eldest princess?"
"you……"
"Oh, and..." Su Qingwan's eyes turned cold. "If I were Xie Zhaolan, there is no way I would marry a heartless, unrighteous, and unrealistic person like you. You may not think too highly of yourself!"
Lu Feng, "..."
The Lu family: "..."
Zhang knew the inside story and knew that Su Qingwan hated Lu Feng and Lin. She didn't say anything and felt complicated. In fact, she and Su Qingwan didn't have a close relationship, but they had a good relationship. She also admired Su Qingwan a little. She believed that Su Qingwan and Lu Feng were innocent and she came for revenge.
No wonder her personality is so different from Zhaolan's.
If Zhaolan had been three times as strong as she was, she wouldn't have been forced to death.
Lu Shaoqing said in a deep voice, "Princess, it was my son who was rude first. Please don't take it to heart. People are similar. You and Xie only look alike. It was us who were reckless. Please don't be offended."
Su Qingwan thought to herself that he was sensible and knew when to advance and retreat, otherwise she really didn't want to argue with them any more.
"Since this is the case, I also hope that your Lu family will not spread any scandals about uncle and sister-in-law having an affair in the future. If you damage my reputation, you will offend the entire Huainan fiefdom." Su Qingwan said coldly, "You Lu family, take care of yourselves."
Su Qingwan turned and left. She came and left in a hurry, and she was unwilling to even have a cup of tea. It can be seen how much she disliked the Lu family. Fortunately, the wedding was held in the palace.
Lu Feng's face turned blue and white, and he lost all his strength. He knew that he was isolated and helpless. His father did not dare to provoke him because of the power of the Lu family, and he also thought about the family honor and would never expose it. Even if the princess was Xie Zhaolan, no one would say anything.
He became a deserted person.
"Hahahahahaha..." Lu Feng laughed a little crazily, even painfully. He used to be the most proud eldest son of the Lu family. He was well-educated, well-educated, and proficient in the six arts of a gentleman. He was the heir carefully cultivated by the Lu family. He lived up to expectations and passed the imperial examination and entered the Hanlin Academy. He should have been able to rise to the top, but who knew that he made mistakes along the way, and he made one mistake after another. He was expelled from the court by the previous emperor, and the emperor almost said that he would never be employed again. He was completely ruined.
However, his younger brother rose to the top and became the regent, second only to the emperor. He was truly happy for his younger brother and felt that it was an honor for the whole family that he could climb to the position of regent.
But why did Lu Jing covet his first wife, who was obviously Xie Zhaolan?
Why?
Lu Jing got everything, power, status, wealth, everything. He could choose any woman in the world, but why did he choose Xie Zhaolan? It was such a humiliation to him.
"Feng'er..." Lin looked at her crazy son worriedly. This was going to drive her son crazy.
Lu Feng said, "Father, in your heart, Ziyu is your biological son, and I am a waste. You abandoned me a long time ago, right? You don't want to offend Ziyu, and you want Ziyu to bring honor to the family, so I became an abandoned son. Who cares about my feelings? My brother wants to marry my first wife, and no one cares whether I am humiliated or not. You all know in your hearts that she is Xie Zhaolan, and Ziyu is just coveting the eldest sister-in-law, but you dare not say it! Ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous!"
Lu Shaoqing shouted, "That's enough. The princess has already said that she is Su Qingwan. What else do you want? How can you be sure that she is Zhaolan without any evidence?"
"I will send people to Jiangnan to look for Xie Zhaolan, but they will definitely come up empty-handed. Do you dare to bet with me? Father, if she is Xie Zhaolan, what will you do? In fact, it doesn't matter to you who she is, right? As long as Lu Jing can be his regent safely, it doesn't matter who he marries or whether I am humiliated, right?"
Lu Shaoqing was silent. This was what he thought in his heart. If Lu Jing was the kind of person who was easy to control, perhaps he would persuade him. But Lu Jing and he were not biological father and son. He did not have the confidence to do so. He also knew Lu Jing's character very well. If he forced him too much, he would only rebel. It didn't matter whether Princess Huainan was Xie Zhaolan or not!
What’s important is that Lu Jing is the most promising descendant of the Lu family. The glory of the Lu family depends on Lu Jing, not Lu Feng.
He knew very well that the prosperity of the family was much more important than personal honor and disgrace. Besides, Lu Feng would have to rely on Lu Jing's support in the future. What good would it be to offend Lu Jing and the princess?
"Feng'er, it's time for you to grow up and stop getting entangled in love. It's not important. Your future is more important. Do you understand?" Lu Shaoqing said to him earnestly.
