Lu Xinlan felt heavy in her heart. At this moment, she suddenly realized the responsibilities she had to shoulder as the eldest daughter of a large family.
Fortunately, this body is that of my sister.
Otherwise, with Lu Xinran's out-of-the-box and cute personality, she really couldn't imagine how she could shoulder such a responsibility.
With her temperament, she might just mess it up and then yell: Destroy it~
Thinking of that scene, the heaviness in my heart seemed to have lost its previous weight.
The emperor was sitting behind the desk and was engrossed in handling the memorial. When he heard the footsteps, he didn't even raise his head. He only asked coldly: "What's the matter?"
"Back to Your Majesty, the two sisters received a shop and farm from their mother before the Queen Mother's birthday party, which was converted into about five thousand taels of silver."
The emperor raised his eyes, and his probing gaze fell on her.
The eldest daughter of the Lu family is quite intelligent, which is completely different from her chaotic thoughts.
Five thousand taels is not a low threshold.
There are only a handful of families in Beijing who can purchase so much private property for their children before they get married.
As for ordinary people, merchants with small fortunes may not be able to collect 5,000 taels of wealth.
People who can hear their voices are relatively controllable.
The emperor withdrew his gaze and fell into thinking. His thoughts kept jumping back and forth between killing Lu Xinran and letting her out of the palace.
Lu Xinlan knelt on the ground, motionless.
Her heart was already high, and she could guess why the emperor was hesitating at this time.
But she didn't dare to say another word. The emperor was suspicious, and one mistake might be self-defeating, so the only thing she could do now was to wait.
In the Changchun Palace, Lu Xinran was restless and kept looking out.
It's already dark, why hasn't Lu Xinlan come back yet?
Zhang Shui'er could feel her worry and anxiety, and she looked to the queen for help, but the queen only shook her head helplessly.
Having been married to the emperor for so many years, she already guessed the answer to why the emperor called him away, but she couldn't guess what decision the emperor would make in the end.
Life and death are all in one thought, this is the ruthlessness of the emperor.
Lu Xinran, who had no idea what was going on from beginning to end, was still worried about others, unaware that he was already in danger.
"Tongzi, why are you so useless? If there were no distance restrictions, I would know what happened now!"
The system she despised was still closed to itself at this time.
It can't even cry, and it is about to break at any time. It must be the most pitiful one of all.
"If there were no distance restrictions, even if I was unlucky enough to enter the harem, I would definitely be able to eat melon at any time and I would not die."
Lu Xinran, who didn't get a response, was still mumbling. The system started to meow like a cat whose paw was stepped on.
"How can you blame me? It's obvious that you have low emotional intelligence and are stupid. You can't even get enough of it, so you just know how to complain in your heart and talk about useless things."
The idea of one person and one system was playing in his mind. As soon as Lu Xinlan walked into the Changchun Palace, she heard the familiar noise.
She couldn't help but laugh, it was great, the silly girl was still as energetic as ever.
Seeing her coming in, Lu Xinran rushed to her almost instantly and looked at her carefully for a week.
"I'm fine, I just went to reply with a few words."
She pulled Lu Xinran into the palace, bowed to the queen, and then sat down amidst the queen's greeting.
The queen looked at her expression with a smile, and Lu Xinlan took the initiative before she asked.
"Just now, two cousins from home came to the palace. They mentioned that my grandmother was ill, my third uncle was in jail, and my grandfather was too busy every day to take care of the affairs of the palace.
"They just got a farm and a shop from their aunt a few days ago, and they just started to learn to take care of the general affairs. There are still some things in the house that they can't help with.
"I hope my sister and I can return home soon and help out."
She sounded worried, but the queen and Zhang Shui'er's attention was all focused on the farm and the shop.
I see.
If you want to hear your voice, you must not only have an official position, but also have private property in your hands.
Such a threshold should make the emperor relax a little, right?
Lu Xinran's attention was all focused on Pei's illness. How could he fall ill so easily?
Did the old scumbag say or do something after he returned home?
His precious concubine son's life is at risk, so he still has the desire to show off his power to his wife?
She was a little eager to get out of the palace, but she had a vague feeling that the two sisters seemed to be temporarily locked up in the palace.
Returning to Yongshou Palace at night, Lu Xinlan went to explain what happened today in a vague way.
As a palace fighting champion, the Queen Mother naturally understood the multiple meanings in her words instantly.
As for when the two sisters would be able to leave the palace, the emperor didn't say anything. Even as the queen mother, she couldn't give a definite answer.
"The Ai family will ask the Lu family to send a message tomorrow. You just need to stay in the Ai family palace."
"My dear, thank you, Queen Mother."
Lu Xinlan calmly took Lu Xinran back to the wing.
Lu Xinran stood by the window, always feeling something strange.
"Sister, why can't we leave the palace yet? Is it because of the murder case of the third uncle and Uncle Zhongqin's youngest son?"
She really couldn't think of any other reason.
"Maybe, the Holy Will is unpredictable. The Queen Mother wants us to live in peace, so let's not make any more guesses."
"Okay, it's all up to you."
Lu Xinran was very worried about eating and sleeping. She was not allowed to leave the palace so she could enjoy the delicacies sent from the imperial dining room with peace of mind.
Such a happy-go-lucky attitude surprised both the Queen Mother and the Empress.
Nowadays, the countryside has become a treasure land of Feng Shui. Is it possible to raise such a strange flower?
After all, the charm of playing cards is not as good as that of sparrow cards. Lu Xinran extended the claws of the Three Missing One to the Queen Mother, and then, she found that she lost even more miserably!
She ate and drank in the palace as if she were on vacation. As the owner of the palace, the emperor had no intention of going into the harem to ask for water in the past two days.
After struggling for several days, he finally did not dare to gamble.
He was afraid that the unfortunate system would really break into pieces, allowing everyone to see other people's privacy and have their voices heard.
If there were no secrets in the world, he, the emperor, would lose any dignity.
If you can't let Lu Xinran die, then you have to protect her and live well!
The imperial physician, the secret guard, and the beating of the courtiers.
The emperor was so upset that he brought Lu Jinchuan into the palace and beat him severely. He also called Tang Quyan and Song Junyan to give them tasks.
After working hard for a few days, he finally sorted out the follow-up. The emperor breathed a sigh of relief. He stretched out and walked briskly to the Yongshou Palace. His mood suddenly became unhappy again.
Why did he and his courtiers work from dawn to dusk for several days, and they were all haggard?
That annoying guy eats and drinks every day, and his face is chubby? !
The emperor, who was mentally disturbed, threw the two sisters, who had the word "confused" written all over them in their hearts, out of the palace that day.
At the palace gate, touching the soft flesh on her belly, Lu Xinran felt full of regret.
"We haven't had time to let the imperial chef restore the Maoxuewang and boiled meat. What a pity."
They had just become acquainted with the Queen Mother, and they were able to order food in the imperial dining room with all their might, but why were they kicked out so unexpectedly?
Lu Xinlan didn't know how to face her big heart, so she pulled her into the carriage back home.
"Grandma is still sick."
"Oh, yes, a golden nest or a silver nest is not as good as your own doghouse. Let's go back quickly."
