Chapter 387 Zhou Yuzhi is ready to die
When Lu Enrui received the emperor's order to serve as a squad leader in the city defense camp, he was completely stunned.
This is completely different from what he thought.
Back then, the second prince Lu Enlian was training in the imperial guards, and soon he was sent to the border with a special old general. After that, the old general retired, and Lu Enlian had the final say there until now.
How could he be dealt with so easily when it came to him? He was just a small team leader, just like the prince of Jing'an Marquis' Mansion before he was dealt with?
Lu Enrui was puzzled, but he didn't dare show it. He could only respectfully accept the imperial edict and thanked the emperor, saying, "Your son obeys your command."
After all, he is not a legitimate son. He forgot that his father has already decided on the crown prince. Naturally, he will try every means to stabilize the crown prince's position, rather than allowing himself, an uncertain factor, to divide the forces that originally supported the crown prince.
What happens in the palace is not known to the outside world so quickly. Even if some people know the outcome, they can only realize it belatedly.
In the past two days, Bailixi has been familiarizing himself with where to find delicious food and fun things to do in Dizhou City, while the National Master Jing Luoquan has never been anywhere except the Gu family.
Dayao was not in a hurry. After all, they knew more or less what the purpose of the Yamato people coming here was.
Since the Yamato people are not in a hurry to act, they can naturally remain inactive.
Lu Enyan's condition has become more stable. After all, more than half a year has passed, and Gu Ruanci has adjusted the pharmacy he received several times, which shows that his condition has really improved.
Princess Duan was very grateful for this and always wanted to find an opportunity to express her gratitude.
Knowing that bezoar was of great use to Gu Runci, she specially asked someone to collect some bezoar and gave it to Gu Runci.
Gu Ruanci did not refuse. In addition to making Angong Niuhuang Pills, she also reserved some to make life-saving pills and gave three directly to Princess Duan.
This kind of thing is hard to come by, and it needs to be combined with other medicinal materials, so it is very difficult to refine. Princess Duan was extremely surprised, but she remained very low-key and did not dare to mention it to too many people.
When the Second Prince married Wen Haiyue, it happened to be the same day that the Crown Prince took a concubine into the palace.
Chen Suyue and Wen Haiyue entered the palace at the same time. Although Lu Enlian had his own mansion, he was often away with troops and there were almost no people in his mansion, so this time they did it together in the palace.
Although Chen Suyue was a concubine, her status could not be underestimated because she was the prince's concubine, and it was not considered an injustice to Wen Haiyue.
Besides, the relationship between the two of them was already very deep, so it wouldn't feel awkward for them to enter the palace at the same time.
That day, Wu Yixuan and Gu Runci, as good sisters, naturally entered the palace to watch the ceremony and accompanied them throughout the whole process.
Wu Yixuan's pregnancy was becoming increasingly stable. Gu Ruanci even whispered to her that after three months, she could actually spend some time with her eldest brother, who had finally returned...
This time, people from the Jing'an Marquis' Mansion also entered the palace to watch the ceremony. After all, they were people with titles and ranks.
When Zhou Yuzhi saw Gu Ruanci, the scene of being beaten a few days ago resurfaced in his mind.
He has not received any apology from Gu Ruanci so far, but has been ignored by the other party.
He was filled with hatred. This sister who should have died outside not only returned safely, but also put pressure on him from all directions.
She is the Little Medical Fairy, whom my father had invited back with great difficulty to treat my grandmother.
Just because of his impulsiveness, she turned around and left. At that time, he had to use soft words to persuade her, which made Zhou Yuzhi feel hatred for her that he could not forgive no matter what.
After that, his grandmother's death made him vent all his hatred on Gu Ruanci.
She did everything on purpose. Even though his grandmother died at his hands, he did not feel guilty. Instead, he hated Gu Ruanci for deliberately misleading him.
Because of jealousy and unwillingness to accept reality, his psychology was actually distorted when facing Gu Ruanci.
He had only one thought, to take revenge on Gu Ruanci.
Gu Ruanci accidentally saw Zhou Yuzhi's eyes. Even though she didn't care at first, she could always feel a cold light following her.
After discovering that it was him, Gu Ruanci felt particularly relieved.
After Zhou Yuzhi found that she ignored his gaze, he felt even stronger to take revenge on her.
He kept observing and then kept thinking of countermeasures.
When his eyes fell on Wu Yixuan's belly, he finally knew what he should do.
The best way to discourage a doctor is to make her watch helplessly as the people around her become ill, or as they die because of her mistakes.
When he first had this idea, he was a little hesitant to make up his mind, after all, Wu Yixuan was innocent.
But then he thought about the attitude of the Gu family when they dealt with the Zhou family. Wu Yixuan was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Gu family, and the child in her belly also belonged to the Gu family. When he was born and grew up, he would still have to deal with the Gu family. It would be better to just let him disappear.
"You can't blame me for this. If you want to blame someone, blame Gu Ruanci for not knowing how to restrain herself. Since you are Gu Ruanci's weakness, you deserve to pay the price for her."
Zhou Yuzhi convinced himself one last time in his mind, and then thought about how to take action.
"Second cousin, what are you doing here?"
When Lu Enrui appeared, Zhou Yuzhi was simulating over and over in his mind how to make Wu Yixuan have a miscarriage.
"No, nothing, why did you come out..."
Zhou Yuzhi was a little flustered, but then he returned to normal.
"Nothing, the excitement inside has nothing to do with us. Anyway, I am an unimportant prince. Even when I get married, I can only have a concubine, not a principal wife."
Lu Enrui's complaint also had a hidden meaning.
After hearing this, Zhou Yuzhi thought Zhou Qinzhu had a chance, so he immediately said, "Actually, you can also ask the emperor to make Qinzhu the principal consort..."
Lu Enrui glanced at him with a strange look in his eyes.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Yuzhi didn't think there was anything wrong with what he just said.
Lu Enrui said, "Second cousin, with the current situation at the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion and my mother's situation, are you sure you want to let us sink together in this way?"
Zhou Yuzhi's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He originally thought that Lu Enrui would be like him, dissatisfied with the current situation and want to change it, but he didn't expect Lu Enrui to say this.
He was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.
Seeing him like this, Lu Enrui continued, "Second cousin, I know what you're thinking, but in this situation, the Jing'an Marquisate is already in a precarious position. My mother has also experienced many ups and downs and dares not make any more mistakes. She was made a concubine because she made a mistake. Do you think I have the nerve to go to my father and ask him to make her the principal consort?"
Zhou Yuzhi felt a little unwilling after hearing this, but he also knew that what Lu Enrui said was true.
He sighed and said, "I just feel that Qinzhu...she deserves better."
Lu Enrui glanced at him and said, "Second cousin, what do you think is better? Becoming the principal wife, or becoming the concubine of a more powerful prince? I know Qin Zhu has been comparing these years. At first, she didn't think much of me, thinking of becoming the Crown Princess after the throne was decided. But does she really know her background? Do you think the royal family would allow such a person to become the Queen? At this point, my eldest cousin has understood everything, but you still don't. This is why Gu Ruanci has refused to forgive you."
