Looking at the worried courtiers below who were hesitant to speak, Yu Shu wished she could put a plaque next to her.
It says: The kind-hearted empress takes care of the heartbroken minister online.
Working for Lin Jiyuan, a guy who is very likely to have a love brain, there is no way to submit to her and have a future.
Although she is lazy and has no big ambitions, her career brain alone is enough to defeat Lin Jiyuan.
Love brain Lin Jiyuan didn't know that the empress was secretly poaching him, so he asked the palace attendant to move his chair and get closer to the empress, so that their hands and shoulders were touching.
Lu Wenyu below saw Lin Jiyuan sitting side by side with the empress. The other person felt his gaze and grabbed the outer palm of the empress' hand to show his identity.
Lu Wenyu's face suddenly darkened. The minister next to him used his eyes to hint that he should restrain his expression, but he did not respond, as if he had lost control of his expression.
The courtiers, who knew very well what kind of person Lin Jiyuan was, also did not want the overly innocent empress who had not been tainted by power to welcome Lin Jiyuan as their imperial concubine, for fear that their empress would be eaten up to nothing by this ferocious hungry wolf.
Seeing that the breathtakingly beautiful empress did not feel any danger on the throne and listened carefully to the ministers' words, they deliberately wanted to remind or delay the empress' marriage.
But after being threatened by Lin Jiyuan with a cold look, they dared not speak out. They could only hope that the empress would realize Lin Jiyuan's evil intentions as soon as possible and not welcome this wolf into the palace and keep her by her side.
Compared with these old courtiers, some ministers who were similar in age to Lu Wenyu were jealous when they heard that the empress was going to welcome her husband.
With such a beautiful empress, no one has ever had any unfavorable thoughts. However, the empress did not understand the relationship between men and women before. No one could get close to the empress. They only hoped to see the empress a few more times and talk to her when they went to court. Just fine.
Now someone suddenly occupies the position of the emperor's husband, can hug the real empress, kiss the empress, and even do more extreme things. How can this not make people jealous.
Lin Jiyuan sensed these jealous looks, pinched the soft flesh on the empress's hand, smiled on his face, and remembered the looks of these people in his heart. From now on, he would never see these ignorant ministers in the court again.
When the next court was approaching, Xuan Ping was about to say goodbye to the court. Lu Wenyu, who had been silent for the whole time, suddenly stepped forward and cupped his hands, saying to the empress,
"Your Majesty, the regent has a very high status in the court and is above all the courtiers. If he moves into the East Palace as the imperial concubine, it would be inappropriate to put the harem and outer court under the jurisdiction of the regent. I hope your majesty will consider it carefully."
After Lu Wenyu said it, Yu Shu, who was immersed in the court and her decision, came to her senses.
Yes, Lin Jiyuan didn't say that he would no longer interfere with the court's affairs after becoming the emperor's wife. If he didn't let go, she would have no one but an empty empress, and she wouldn't be able to do anything to him.
And in the harem, there are still several concubines of the late emperor living there. If Lin Jiyuan had any thoughts, wouldn't she be aiding the evil deeds without knowing it and ruining the reputation of several concubines?
Seeing Yu Shu's expression change and her eyes becoming hesitant, Lin Jiyuan frowned and looked at Lu Wenyu with a sharp sword hidden in his eyes.
"We will discuss the matter of welcoming the emperor later. The most important thing is to celebrate General Shen's return from victory."
After saying that, Yu Shu gave Xuan Ping a look, and Xuan Ping said to withdraw from the court, and then left the hall with the empress.
Lin Jiyuan did not follow the empress immediately. He walked up to Lu Wenyu with a very cold expression and sneered coldly.
"I am very close to His Majesty. Can Prime Minister Lu stop His Majesty once, or forever?"
"Your Majesty wants to know. We'll find out if I have the ability." Lu Wenyu responded with a smile, but at this time he had returned to his usual upright and calm demeanor.
