Chapter 86 For Song Tangning to suppose
"What did you say?"
Empress Lu's originally casual face was instantly dull. When she looked at Lu Zhinian and the others in disbelief, her hands almost tore up the things in her hands.
Jinzhi on the side was also full of shock. Old lady, was crazy?
Mrs. Lu couldn't bear the gaze of Queen Lu, and she shrank with a pale face: "The Rong family has a very strong family. Rong Qian'an has left so many things. I just asked Song Tangning to take a little bit of ancient books and calligraphy and paintings to play with. I thought. Sooner or later, she will marry into the Lu family. Everyone is a family. If these things can help Your Highness, it will be her honor. How could I know that she will suddenly turn aside..."
"You're confused!!"
Queen Lu suddenly stood up, pinching the things in her hand and trembling with anger: "Are you helping Zheng'er ? You want to kill him!!"
She was so angry that she wanted to scold and angrily, and wanted to throw the order on her face, but the person in front of her was her mother and her bloodline. She could only turn her head and scold Lu Zhinian .
"Your grandmother is confused, are you confused? How could you indulge her in doing such a thing?"
"The things left by Rong Qian'an are good. No one in the world wants them, but do you see anyone dare to attack the Rong family's blood? Before Song Tangning married into the Lu family, you dare to be greedy for so many things. You actually dare to hand it over to the Fourth Prince, where has your brain gone? ! "
Lu Zhinian was scolded and silently said nothing, and did not argue at all. Instead, Mrs. Lu quickly stood up when she saw her distressed grandson.
"Empress, Sanlang is not aware of this. I didn't expect to give the things to the Fourth Prince. It was because the Fourth Prince happened to see him once in the mansion..."
That day, her nephew and grandson of her mother passed by the mansion and had a dispute with Song Tangning over some trivial matters. The two of them made a fuss. She became angry and scolded Song Tangning for not being the mistress of the house. Song Tangning gave him a golden toad the next day. The next day Zhu Fei Yu ink bed, accompanied by a set of paperweights and inkstones, came to apologize to her nephew and grandson, but the fourth prince happened to be looking at her.
During that time, Emperor An ordered the fourth prince to prepare the Scriptures. The fourth prince wanted to gain a reputation among scholars. He also wanted to accumulate prestige among scholars. He wanted to invite the great scholar He Yun to help him several times, and countless gold and silver items were sent to him. I was returned and was overjoyed when I was worried when I saw that thing.
He Yun had a grandson who was just entering school. The fourth prince sent the Wenbao over and this time he successfully entered the He family's gate. Although He Yun still did not join the court to help him, he referred several of his disciples. He gave it to the fourth prince and joined his residence as a disciple to help him practice the scriptures, which not only won the holy heart of Emperor An after practicing the scriptures , but also won a good reputation in the outside world.
After that, the fourth prince tasted the sweetness, and Mrs. Lu also realized that this future granddaughter-in-law whom she had originally looked down on had such benefits.
She handed over the things that Song Tangning sent to the Fourth Prince without hesitation. The Fourth Prince naturally refused everyone. After getting the things, she became closer to her grandmother.
Mrs. Lu's defense not only did not let the queen offend her anger, but instead became more annoyed: "Then have you told him the origin of these things?!"
"I..."
Old Mrs. Lu suddenly choked . She could not make Song Tangning conspicuous. Naturally, she lied that the Lu family had treasured it. She whispered: "The Song girl married into the Lu family, and her things were naturally from the Lu family..."
"Then is she married now?" Queen Lu shouted fiercely.
Mrs. Lu's face was pale.
When Queen Lu saw that her always smart mother was so confused, her body shook her chest and her chest was unstable.
Seeing this, Jinzhi hurriedly stepped forward to help her to calm her down. After finally recovering, Queen Lu looked at the roll of things in her hand full of anxiety and said coldly to the two of the Lu family : "This is it." How many things are given to Zheng'er ? "
"Five out of ten." Lu Zhinian lowered his head, "except those who stayed in the mansion, they were almost all taken away by His Highness."
Queen Lu felt a silence in her chest: "You said that there were many people who knew when Song Tangning sent this order to the Lu family?"
Lu Zhinian drooped even lower: "Everyone knows when beating gongs and drums."
Queen Lu's eyes were getting dark, and before she could recover, Lu Zhinian whispered:
"These things are almost all the dowry left by Grand Tutor Rong to Mrs. Song Er. The government has registered it. If Tang Ning is serious and insists on asking us for a return, the Lu family will not be able to escape."
"She hated the Lu family and refused to repair it, so she only gave it a three-day period. Xiao Yan was urging him and the affairs of the Duke of Song's mansion were in front of him. Grandfather was worried that Tang Ning would really be cruel and sued him with this thing. yamen . "
Lu Zhinian knelt on the ground, lowering his eyes and his voice was slow.
"I'm afraid the things given by the Fourth Prince cannot be taken back. The matter is greater than that of Your Highness, and the Yu Lu family is not good. The Lu family can collect only a small part of this list . My grandfather meant that this matter cannot be hidden from the queen. Empress, see if you can discuss with Tang Ning, and give up the matter by exchanging the engagement between the two families. The Lu family will exchange the items for gold and silver to return them to her at 30% higher than the original price."
He said this and clenched his fist in his sleeves hard, thinking about how the little girl who had been following him since childhood would look at him. Even if he tried his best to stabilize his voice, the blood on his face faded away.
" Tang Ning wanted to draw a clear line with the Lu family, but my marriage with her was something you personally gave me and could not be lifted. If the Queen exchanged this, she might be able to let her go."
Empress Lu was originally angry with the Lu family, and even hated Mrs. Lu for her princess who was deeply involved in her son. She also became resentful and angry at her nephew who loved her very much in the past. But when she heard Lu Zhinian's words, she looked at the bright and clear moon. The young man, who was as bright as a jade, said in embarrassment and pale as he stopped with his engagement in exchange for Song Tangning, she felt angry .
"Sanlang, are you and Song Tangning really impossible?" asked Empress Lu.
Lu Zhinian thought that it was impossible. He could still see Song Tangning and find a way to make her remember her past relationship. How could many years of love be gone in a short time? But when he thought about his grandfather before entering the palace, he told him. Words.
Lu Zhinian said with pale lips and his eyes closed , "We cannot afford to bet on everything," he said, "Your Highness and the Lu family first."
Empress Lu's last grudge in her heart was completely dissipated. If the Lu family had something to hide from her after it happened, or even took her son to take risks, she would naturally be resentful, but the matter had not completely broken down yet, and they had never concealed it at all. Moreover, Lu Zhinian was as arrogant and arrogant as he was willing to regress for the fourth prince's reputation, so her face calmed down.
"You are a good person. My aunt hasn't loved you for vain over the years."
Queen Lu said softly , "Get up quickly, the ground is cold."
Queen Lu's attitude changed significantly, but Lu Zhinian seemed to have been accustomed to it for a long time. He just said calmly: "It's my fault, which has implicated the Fourth Prince."
