Chapter 429 Reading companion
It was also the mother of Lady Lu who behaved improperly, and actually let the Li family catch her having an affair with someone else many years ago.
If this gets out, not only Lady Lu’s reputation, but the entire Lu family’s reputation will be ruined, and Lady Lu’s mother will not survive.
Even her brothers might be ruined.
Then the fifth prince was also harmed.
With such a thing happening, even though Lady Lu was selfish and ambitious, she couldn't afford to take the risk, not to mention what Zhen Chongyi had promised her.
For example, if Zhen Chongyi could become the queen in the future, he would guarantee her a position as a concubine or something.
In this case, there is no way out, and Lady Lu has no choice but to do this.
This is also why after her failure, she dared not resist even until her death.
Unless she died, the reputation of her Lu family, her mother, her biological brothers, and her son would be ruined.
Sure enough, within two days, Lady Lu's mother fell ill and passed away.
As for what's going on inside, only Qi Yixiu knows.
At least the other members of the Lu family were saved, but because of the Lu family's murder of the queen, the Lu family's reputation still plummeted.
At least the fifth prince was saved.
The harem was quiet for a few days due to the deaths of Ying Xiurong and Lu Meiren.
At least, the news that Chaoguo has withdrawn its troops is a happy event.
As the weather got warmer, Shen Chuliu would occasionally go to Yufu Palace to take a look. The plaques outside the palace had been replaced, and the font was still written by Qi Yixiu himself.
The three characters written in a dancing style are very powerful.
The first thing to do is to plant trees, including the flowers, plants and trees that need to be transplanted, and then the furniture inside.
All the best things were made for her. Zizhu and Zirui came several times a day to tell her what she liked.
All in all, the layout here is excellent.
The Sixth Prince would come to see the place when he was not studying. Knowing that his mother would live here in the future, he had no objection since he would come here anyway.
Today, the Sixth Prince came back early and will have a rest tomorrow, so he is very happy.
"Mother, Fifth Brother's mother brought him food again today. Mother, Fifth Brother's mother loves him so much."
"I don't love you?" Shen Chuliu glared.
"Hehehe, no, no, mother loves me the most." The Sixth Prince came over and hugged Shen Chuliu's arm.
"Go away, go away. She's seven years old and you're not sitting at the same table with her. Why are you still hugging her?" Shen Chuliu said with disgust.
"Hehehe, fourth brother said that fifth brother's mother was changed? Mother, can the mother be changed?" The Sixth Prince was puzzled.
"Did your fourth brother say that?" Shen Chuliu raised his eyebrows.
"Fourth brother said it secretly. Although third brother didn't say it, he nodded. How can mother be replaced?" The seven-year-old Sixth Prince actually understood a lot.
But he really didn't know about this matter.
"So what did you say?" Shen Chuliu asked.
"No. I just said I didn't know." The Sixth Prince blinked.
"Well, then continue to not know, and don't go out and ask. Just remember that your fifth brother is the child of your mother. Is your fifth brother happy to receive the things given by his mother?" Shen Chuliu asked.
"I'm so happy. He even shared the pine nut candy with us. Fourth brother was reluctant to do so." The Sixth Prince snorted.
"What a prospect! I'm afraid your teeth might get damaged, so I have to control your sweet intake? How much do you want to eat when I can't afford it?" Shen Chuliu poked his head.
"Hmph!" The Sixth Prince was angry but refused to let go.
The mother and daughter quarreled for a while.
"Mom, do you want to eat fish for lunch? I want to eat."
"If you want to eat, go tell them. You can eat fish, vegetables or meat, but not in excess. Got it?" Shen Chuliu poked the child's head again.
"Oh." The Sixth Prince dodged without much concern, and didn't care if he didn't dodge.
Dadada ran to tell Zirui.
Zi Rui agreed to whatever he said, so she naturally prepared a table of his favorite food without hesitation.
I ate and drank my fill, and was in a very good mood because I didn’t have to go home today.
Cuiyunxuan was very lively throughout the afternoon.
Shen Chuliu thought that finding a study partner for the Sixth Prince really had to be put on the agenda, and it was not a good idea to play with the little eunuch all day long.
So, when the emperor came in the evening, he told him.
The emperor nodded and said, "I have been so busy lately that I have forgotten that there are two candidates. One is the grandson of Mr. Song in the cabinet. He is also seven years old this year and is said to be very smart. The other is the youngest son of General Ming Fu. He is eight years old this year and not only learns greetings, but also practices martial arts."
"General Mingfu? Is it that He family? The one whose ancestor saved him in his early years? And the one whose incompetent son almost rebelled later?" Shen Chuliu frowned.
"Hahaha, that's right. Although General Mingfu is just an empty title, he has actually worked in the Ministry of Works for many years. He is indeed a capable man." Qi Yixiu said with a smile.
"Then let's go with him. It's good to practice martial arts. Although Yan'er is a prince, it's good for him to practice martial arts to strengthen his body. It's also beneficial to learn a little bit." Shen Chuliu said: "It's just right. This child is lively and energetic. It's also good to use him in the training ground. What do you think, Your Majesty?"
"Well, they are all good, but I think the Song family's grandson is also good. The older princes, for example, the second prince, has two study companions."
"But there is only one Third Prince and Fourth Prince, and there is only one Yan'er. If the child of the Song family is good, then the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Prince should be able to have a study companion soon." Shen Chuliu said.
"My beloved concubine is too cautious. When I educate my children, I always hope that they will be better." Qi Yixiu looked at Shen Chuliu with a smile.
"How dare you say that! What did you say to me last time?" Shen Chuliu kicked the emperor when he remembered it.
But now he's on the couch, so a kick over there would just be a tickle.
The emperor laughed and said, "That's enough. It will be bad if you keep fussing about it."
"Okay, I'll think about this matter. Yan'er will have a study companion these days." Qi Yixiu smiled and hugged Shen Chuliu: "I apologize to my beloved concubine."
The last time Shen Chuliu was talking about was naturally the last time the emperor asked her if she wanted to be the queen.
And this time, she was naturally cautious because the Song family had real power.
His grandson became the sixth prince's study companion. Would he really not be involved in other matters in the future? To be honest, she certainly hoped that her son could make a name for himself, but it was unnecessary for such a young child to start forming cliques.
She still hopes that her child can grow up healthily and be relatively happy.
The next day, just after Shen Chuliu came back from paying respects, the Sixth Prince came running over and said, "Mother! Chusi just came and said I have a study partner."
"Hmm?" Shen Chuliu looked at Yuanxiao.
"My Lord, the Fourth Eunuch just said that tomorrow, the grandson of Lord Song and the youngest son of General Mingfu will come in to study with our Sixth Prince."
"Also, the Emperor has issued an order that the other princes should have two study companions, and the princesses can also have two study companions."
"Tsk, okay, I'm attracting hatred again." Shen Chuliu lowered her head and pinched the Sixth Prince's chubby face into a bun: "Stinky boy, just be happy in secret."
