Chapter 344 I don't agree with this view
Lu Xiang pursed her lips, didn't say much, just nodded.
She does not agree with the view that a prodigal son who returns is worth more than gold, and even believes that a dog will never change its bad habits.
Because she was reborn, she had different ideas about love and life, but she couldn't ask everyone to stand with her and support her sister-in-law in getting a divorce and staying away from Lu Chao.
But it is impossible to ask her to persuade her sister-in-law to come back.
Concubine Zhen didn't know what Lu Xiang was thinking, so she asked, "Now that Yao is dead, how will mother and brother take care of Xiao'er?"
His own aunt murdered his elder brother, and now Lu Xiao is really embarrassed in the Lu family.
Yao's plan was exposed. As long as Lu Chao stopped making trouble in the future, the Lu family would definitely be handed over to him. How would he feel about Lu Xiao?
They were originally close brothers, but a rift developed between them because of a woman named Yao.
Lu Xiang said, "Grandmother and father took my seventh brother back home. This is no secret in the Lu family, and we didn't hide it from my seventh brother. My father said that no matter what the future holds for the two brothers, the two brothers will each have half of the Lu family. With him around, he won't let the eldest brother bully him. When my seventh brother comes of age, we will separate. But my seventh brother didn't want to, and asked to go back to his hometown in Yangning City. He insisted, so my father finally agreed and asked someone reliable to go back to take care of him."
The young master could not accept the fact that his biological mother was going to kill his eldest brother. If he stayed, he might not be retaliated by Lu Chao, but if he stayed, he would either live in regret or develop resentment over the long days.
For a child, even if his or her own mother has done something unforgivable, he or she will never wish for her death.
If Lu Xiao returns to Yangning City and stays away from this existence, perhaps the resentment in his heart will slowly fade. Without having to face Lu Chao, he will feel less guilty and perhaps be able to live more freely.
Concubine Zhen nodded silently.
The eldest brother has only two illegitimate sons. He would rather the two brothers never meet again than let them become enemies in the future.
It was rare for Concubine Zhen to see Lu Xiang, so she asked about everyone in the mansion.
Near noon, Shiso from the Queen's Palace arrived.
"Your servant greets Concubine Zhen." Zi Su bowed and saluted.
Concubine Zhen: "Quickly stop the formalities."
"Lunch in Jingren Palace is ready. Your Majesty, please invite the Third Miss over." Zi Su said.
Concubine Zhen was slightly stunned, thinking that the Queen really loved Lu Xiang, so she did not hold Lu Xiang back, "If that's the case, then go quickly, don't keep the Queen waiting for too long."
What's more, since the Queen has invited her, no concubine would dare to refuse to let the person go.
However, Zhenpin was happy to see her niece, who was close to her, being favored by the Queen.
Lu Xiang stood up and said, "Aunt, my niece is gone."
Zi Su bowed and said, "I'll take my leave."
After the two left, Concubine Zhen couldn't help but sigh, "I can feel that Xiangxiang is closer to the Queen than to me, her aunt."
There was a hint of loneliness in his tone.
Su Wei's face changed when she heard this, and she hurriedly advised, "Your Majesty, please don't think like that. You and the Third Miss are blood relatives, and your feelings don't need to be exposed. The Queen is of noble status, and it is a blessing for the Third Miss to be liked and valued by her. It is also right for her to be closer to the Queen."
Master, please don't be confused.
Concubine Zhen turned her head and saw Su Wei's slightly pale face. She immediately understood what she was thinking. She glared at her and said with a smile, "What are you thinking about? I just sighed. Is it worth you to panic like this?"
Su Wei smiled shyly, breathed a sigh of relief, and readily apologized, "I admit my guilt."
Lu Xiang had lunch with the Queen in Jingren Palace, and then took a nap in the Queen's bedroom. Of course, he did not sleep on the Queen's phoenix bed, but slept on the couch for a while.
It was almost evening when Queen Song let her go.
When she returned to the Lu family, a maid told her that the old lady said to wait for her to go to Fuyuan Hall when she returned home.
So Lu Xiang went directly to see the old lady.
"Grandma, are you looking for me?" Lu Xiang walked into the room with a happy smile on her little face.
The old lady put down the Buddhist scriptures in her hand, smiled and waved at her: "Are you tired?"
Lu Xiang sat down next to the old lady, tilted his head slightly, and shook his head, "I'm not tired, grandma, my injuries are all healed."
Her injury had just healed, and the old lady was worried that she would be tired from walking so much in the palace.
Lu Xiang's forehead was slightly sweaty. The old lady gently wiped her sweat with a handkerchief and then said, "Not long after you entered the palace, the Third Prince's Mansion sent someone to deliver a notice."
"The Third Prince's Mansion?" Lu Xiang was stunned when he heard this: "The one who sent the invitation was the Third Princess?"
"It's her." said the old lady.
"But my granddaughter isn't familiar with her." Lu Xiang said in surprise.
Whether in the previous life or this life, she and the Third Royal Concubine were just casual acquaintances and had almost no contact. Why did she suddenly send her a message?
Since coming to Beijing, she has never even seen the imperial concubine.
The old lady thought for a moment and said, "When socializing with other families, sometimes you don't need to be too familiar with each other. The Third Imperial Concubine invited you, perhaps because of the Empress."
To put it bluntly, given the status of the Lu family, Lu Xiang is not qualified to attend the banquet hosted by the three imperial concubines.
However, the Empress Dowager likes her, so it is reasonable for her to be invited to the banquet by the Third Princess.
The Third Royal Concubine is the legitimate daughter of Censor Wang. She is very good at dealing with people, but it seems that she is not very popular with the Third Prince.
Lu Xiang couldn't help but think of the scene in Jingren Palace where he saw Concubine Yi coming to the Queen to ask for permission to take a concubine for her son. The concubine was the legitimate daughter of Hanlin Chen, and the Queen almost kicked her out.
But the Third Prince is a playboy. He has a wife and countless concubines. It is said that the number of women in the palaces of several princes combined is not as many as him. Given his philandering nature, it would be strange that Chen Hanlin would agree to marry his daughter to him.
Lu Xiang silently complained in his heart.
But she looked at the old lady obediently: "What do you think, grandma?"
"Since it is the Third Imperial Concubine's invitation, there is no reason to refuse. Besides, you are not young anymore. You should go out more often and make more friends with young ladies from aristocratic families. It will also be good for you."
If in time, the Eighth Prince really fulfilled his promise to marry Xiangxiang as his concubine, then she would need her own connections even more.
No matter how you look at it, you should go.
"I understand, grandma." Lu Xiang nodded and responded.
