Madam Lan immediately made a firm decision for Lan Yu, saying, "Now that he's back in the capital, I'll have him submit a memorial to express his gratitude and apologize! Whether he's the Duke of Liang or not doesn't matter!"
The ancients placed extraordinary importance on incense offerings.
Lan Yu acted somewhat recklessly because she had only one daughter before, who had become a princess. Therefore, when the Lan clan heard that the Lan family line could be continued, they naturally regarded it as a top priority.
Lan Yu was raised by the Lan clan; although he was called a younger brother, he was practically raised as a son.
The Chang family and the Lan family share both prosperity and adversity, and the Chang family and Zhu Xiong Ying also share both loss and gain; they cannot withstand any setbacks.
It's said that Chang Yuchun was the father-in-law of Crown Prince Zhu Biao, so as the Crown Princess's uncle, Lan Yu's efforts to protect the Crown Prince's position as heir apparent are certainly understandable. However, the problem now is that the Crown Princess died young, and compared to Zhu Biao, the Chang family actually cares more about Zhu Xiong Ying.
Although Zhu Xiong Ying is now the Crown Prince, and everyone knows he is greatly favored by the Emperor, many worry that with the Emperor now sixty, there are concerns about whether he can continue to protect his Crown Prince in the future.
Some things are best left unsaid, especially since Zhu Xiong Ying has already been quite blunt.
If Lan Yu continues his evil deeds, then Zhu Biao and Zhu Xiong Ying cannot be blamed for being ruthless in the future. After all, they are the heirs of the Ming Dynasty, not the heirs of the Chang and Lan families.
Zhu Xiong Ying believed that as long as he successfully ascended to the throne, Lan Yu would not end up being skinned alive and stuffed with straw, much less be pitifully skinned alive and stuffed with straw and then sent as a 'specimen' to his daughter, the Princess Lan of Shu, as a warning.
Whether Lan Yu can learn from his mistakes and make any progress depends on his next actions.
If he continues to be so arrogant and domineering, he might be spared being skinned alive out of respect for the Chang family. However, whether he can become a pillar of the court or a flag bearer for the military in the future is another matter entirely.
After all, there are still many generals with outstanding achievements in the court.
Founding heroes such as Tang He, Feng Sheng, Mu Ying, Fu Youde, Tang Shengzong, Lu Zhongheng, Zhou Dexing, and Geng Bingwen are still alive.
Xu Yungong, Li Jinglong, Feng Cheng, Wu Gao, Ping An and other new generation talents have also begun to emerge.
Although Lan Yu is important, the Ming Dynasty still has many famous generals and the current military elite group is still powerful. It's not that the dynasty can't function without Lan Yu!
Everything that needed to be said has been said, and everything that needed to be done has been done. Now it's up to Lan Yu to make his own choice, to see if he is truly loyal and knows when to advance and retreat!
