Lu Chongyuan's face was pale and his eyes were full of anger: "I told him to calm down and not to provoke Xiao Yan and the others for the time being, but it's better for him. How could he come up with such a stupid idea and dare to do it in the capital? Then we will attack Song Tangning."
As he spoke, he regretted: "I was too confused to look at him. I should have thought about how Xiao Yan could be the loser. How could he touch my face like that in public for no reason?"
Lu Chongyuan originally thought that Xiao Yan humiliated him in public because he was unhappy that Emperor An suddenly backed down, ruining his good situation and asking the Lu family to escape. He thought that Xiao Yan was just venting his anger, and even after the embarrassment, he secretly laughed at Xiao Yan. However, after all, the young man couldn't help but be angry.
But who would have thought that what he wanted was never the Lu family's face. He forced one of his sons to death, and now he wants the life of his other son.
This is Xiao Yan's revenge!
Whenever Lu Chongyuan thinks about Lu Qin falling in due to his carelessness, his chest will rise and fall with anger and his breathing will become more rapid.
Lu Jiuan quickly stretched out his hand to help him: "Grandpa, don't be angry, this is not your fault. If Xiao Yanneng was sure that his father would take action, and he could also let his majesty change to a carriage, it would definitely not be just what happened to the academy today. Although my father They are impulsive and irritable, but they will not act so easily. They are afraid that they may have angered their father with other things."
"Now is not the time to blame yourself, it's time to think about how to protect your father."
"It can't be saved."
Lu Chongyuan's face was blank: "I have angered Your Majesty before by forcing him to do something about the past. He temporarily gave in and surrendered, but he had long held grudges in his heart. It is good that the Lu family was not at fault, but now that it has been committed against His Majesty, it is still a serious crime of assassination. Your Majesty I will definitely not spare Qin'er."
In full view of everyone, Emperor An almost died, and the evidence of Lu Qin's assassination was conclusive.
It's not like Lu Zhao's matter concerns the entire Lu family, and there is no conclusive evidence to force Emperor An to back down. Now that everyone knows the crime, if he lets Emperor An let Lu Qin go, it will be equivalent to forcing Emperor An to die together.
Emperor An is afraid that old things will be exposed, and the Lu family is equally afraid, because once exposed, the Lu family will die faster than Emperor An.
Lu Chongyuan's heart ached, and his lips were so white that no blood could be seen: "Xiao Yan has made up his mind to destroy Qin'er."
Or, the entire Lu family will die on the charge of assassinating the Holy Emperor.
Or, Lu Qin personally admits that he ordered someone to murder Song Tangning and accidentally hurt the Holy Emperor. Whether Lu Qin dies or is exiled depends on Emperor An's wishes.
"That Xiao Yan is simply a disaster." Lu Chongyuan's eyes were filled with regret: "The biggest mistake I made in my life was not killing him early in the morning!"
When the eunuch first showed his talents and faced the aristocratic family, he should have crushed him to death at all costs, so that he and the Lu family would not be in the current situation.
Lu Chongyuan grabbed Lu Jiu'an's hand: "Go to King Huan and tell him that I agree to what he said!"
Lu Jiuan was shocked: "Grandpa..."
Lu Chongyuan gritted his teeth: "I will always find a way out for the Lu family."
Lu Jiu'an was silent after hearing this. He knew that the Lu family was in an awkward situation now. They fell out with Queen Lu, the fourth prince was ruined, and the second prince had colluded with the Cui family. Even if they wanted to switch sides, they were worried that they would become pawns after being exploited. Throw it aside.
The other princes in the court were either young or had their own support. Because the fourth prince had already enmity with the Lu family, they had no other choice.
Lu Jiu'an whispered: "Grandpa, King Huan is not a good choice, why don't we choose ourselves?"
Lu Chongyuan was stunned for a moment and raised his head: "What did you say?"
Lu Jiuan said solemnly: "I said, why don't we take that position ourselves?"
"Instead of trying your best to assist an outsider and then being suppressed by various suspicions after he ascends the throne, why not just push the people of the Lu family to the throne? The so-called imperial power is just that whoever is in that position will be the emperor."
Lu Chongyuan looked at the young man next to him with a bit of surprise on his face. After a moment, he frowned: "You want to be the emperor?"
"Why can't I?"
Lu Jiuan lost his usual tameness, and when the light in his eyes showed, he became sharp and sharp.
"Grandpa, don't forget, the Xie family were just commoners before they ascended the throne. The Lu family has a deeper background than them, so why can't we fight for it? If I sit in that position, I will not only repay my grandfather, but also protect the entire Lu family. "
"The blood of the Lu family flows in my body, and everything I have now is given by my grandfather. I will never betray the Lu family."
Lu Chongyuan looked at the sharp young man. This was the trump card he had trained for the Lu family, and it was also the escape route he had prepared for the Lu family. If nothing happened, Lu Jiu'an would become the most loyal secret chess player to assist the next head of the Lu family. All his bones and blood belong to the Lu family.
If something happens to the Lu family and there is no way to retreat, he can be used to protect the Lu family.
But Lu Chongyuan didn't expect that Lu Jiu'an would have such ambition.
He suddenly felt ridiculous, but after the absurdity, he felt that what Lu Jiuan said was not necessarily impossible. There was no doubt about the loyalty of the man in front of him to the Lu family. He had personally trained and inculcated the family first for so many years, so Lu Jiuan only had Lu Jiuan in his heart. Home.
Lu Jiu'an's talent and temperament were all seen by Lu Chongyuan. If he was not the son of the Lu family, he would definitely let him inherit the Lu family business. He would not settle for Lu Zhinian. If he was promoted to the top, the Lu family would not have to worry about the future.
only……
Lu Chongyuan hesitated when he looked at Lu Jiu'an's slightly mediocre features after being covered up.
"Grandpa." Lu Jiuan still wanted to persuade.
Lu Chongyuan waved his hand: "I know what you are thinking, but I have to think about this matter carefully. At the moment, I will take care of your father's side. Your Majesty has a grudge. It will be difficult to keep him safe. Please help me to the study first."
Lu Jiuan nodded: "Okay."
After sending Lu Chongyuan to the study, Lu Jiuan looked at Lu Chongyuan who was writing something with his head down, with some confusion on his face.
He didn't understand what his grandfather was worried about. He was precocious and intelligent since he was a child. Although he was a commoner to his second wife, his grandfather had always loved him very much, and he had never been prejudiced against him because he was a commoner.
He received the best teachings since he was a child. His grandfather taught him everything about intrigues, ulterior motives, and court tactics.
His grandfather said that the Lu family could not have a bastard as the head of the family, and he had never resented his grandfather for asking him to assist Lu Zhinian. Even if Lu Zhinian was not as good as him in every aspect, he had always been at ease as a "secret chess player", waiting for Lu Zhinian to become the head of the family and become the leader of the family. Potency.
But today is different from the past. Lu Zhi Nian is dead, the eldest brother only has his youngest son left, and the fourth brother of the second brother is stupid. The so-called retreat of the Lu family is just to rely on others, so why can't he take the position himself? Moreover, my grandfather was obviously moved just now, but he didn't agree to it. Did he think that a bastard could not ascend the throne?
Lu Jiuan frowned, feeling that something was wrong.
