Chapter 354 Why Don't You Want to Bear the Infamy of Being Unfilial?
Even though they complained in their hearts, they couldn't guess Yunsong's actions. The three of them sat around the round table, all with their heads down, thinking about countermeasures.
"You think the Emperor's vomiting of blood... could this also be part of his plan?"
Lu Xinran even felt like he was about to deify someone.
Lu Xinlan just shook his head and said in a deep voice: "It should be just a coincidence. Even if he has spies among the imperial physicians, the emperor's physical condition is not something he can accurately control."
The emperor's fainting and vomiting of blood should only be a probabilistic event. If it was really part of his calculations, he would definitely have a countermeasure afterwards instead of just sending them a letter full of accusations and instructions.
"Let's just stay the same in the face of change. As for Father," Song Junyan paused for a moment, "We don't know who exactly are the people he has placed around Father, so even if we want to remind him of something, it's easy to backfire."
So the best thing to do is for them to just pretend they didn't receive the letter.
They didn't notice the accusations above, and certainly didn't notice what they were asked to do.
Lu Xinran snorted, feeling disgusted when he thought of Yunsong's arrogant and controlling look.
If she could, she just wanted to slap that guy twice.
Still cooperating with him, this kind of person has as many tricks as a fishing net, who knows if he is really cooperating or just wants to use them to achieve some purpose.
The information in hand was limited, and the three of them could not discuss any more details, so Lu Xinlan got up and returned to the courtyard where she had lived for the past few days.
Song Junyan knew that she was leaving, so he spoke hesitantly.
"She... do you really think divorce is the best solution?"
"What else?" Lu Xinran looked at him speechlessly, "Or do you have a better way to get rid of Liu? She is Tang Chongli's biological mother. Even if they broke up, and Tang Quyan really divorced Liu as I said, then at this point, she is no longer Tang Chongli's biological mother?"
As long as we cannot break away from the blood connection, this problem has no solution.
Song Junyan frowned even more tightly, and under Lu Xinran's warning gaze, he carefully chose his words and spoke again.
"But don't you two care about nothing? From my impression, you two don't care about reputation, which is what others care about the most.
"Since you don't care, and are willing to bear the infamy of divorce and causing the Lu and Tang families to fall out, then why aren't you willing to bear the infamy of being unfilial?
"As long as you are willing to throw away the constraints of filial piety and ignore whatever Liu says or does, then her influence will no longer exist, right?"
As long as you just treat Liu as air and ignore her words and actions, then the frustration and grievance will disappear, right?
He asked sincerely, he really wanted to find out what the two sisters were thinking.
Lu Xinran was stunned by his question. She stared at him in a daze for a long time, and suddenly slapped him excitedly.
"Sure enough! They say those who are involved are often confused. Now I understand what this sentence means!"
She lifted her skirt and chased after him excitedly.
She could see that her sister had feelings for Tang Chongli, and she was reluctant to ruin Tang Chongli's future because of this incident.
But she was really tired of Liu and didn't want to have any contact with her anymore, so she wanted to get a divorce and be done with it.
However, Song Junyan's words were also a compromise.
She rushed into Lu Xinlan's room, repeated what Song Junyan had just said in front of her astonished eyes, and then left quickly without caring about Lu Xinlan's reaction.
Leaving Lu Xinlan alone in the room to think about what to do.
The entire capital city was surged with excitement because of Lu Xinran's words today.
In the Prince of Jin's mansion, Song Junhua invited all the court officials who supported him openly or secretly to his mansion.
If the emperor's health really cannot last until the end of the year, then every day from now on will be crucial for them.
The Minister of Rites Du Liang, who had been hesitating and undecided about which side to take, was invited by him to sit on the main seat.
In the mansions of the other princes, court officials who supported them were busy discussing countermeasures.
Everything was the same as usual at Song Junyan's place. There were no carriages coming in or out of the front or back door of Prince Wei's mansion. It seemed that today's incident had no effect on the couple.
In the palace, the emperor, who had been keeping an eye on his sons' movements, looked even darker as he heard the news.
Do these guys really think he is going to die soon?
He was just injured by the pill, and he wasn't going to die immediately as Lu Xinran said!
He could feel that although his body was not as strong as before, as long as he followed the conditioning methods listed by the imperial physician, and then... stopped using the pills, and began to cultivate his character and regulate his body, he believed that he would be able to recover!
"Go and give me a list of the officials who went to the various palaces today!"
Aren’t these people anxious?
Since you want to receive the credit for following the dragon, then go to a bitter and cold place to sober up first!
Eunuch Fu bowed his head and accepted the order. Without delay, he immediately ground ink and picked up his pen to list the names of the officials he had just heard.
He just kept it in mind. While the emperor was weak and had his eyes closed to rest, he quickly copied the list and prepared to find an opportunity to hand it to Song Junyan.
The next morning, when everyone thought that the emperor would rest for a few days and would not attend the morning court again, the emperor came in a jade sedan chair. Eunuch Fu behind him was holding the imperial edict in his hands. While everyone was kneeling to pay their respects, he unfolded the edict and began to read it.
All the officials who had entered the princes' palaces yesterday were on the imperial edict, and the list was handed over to the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple, requiring Lu Jinchuan and Tang Quyan to jointly conduct a thorough investigation.
As for what the thorough investigation was about, it was not mentioned in the imperial edict, but everyone was shaking with fear, knowing that their actions the day before had angered the emperor.
Du Liang's eyes rolled back and he fainted.
He was the only one who was mentioned specifically and his crimes were listed one by one.
The emperor had let him go several times before, but this time he lost his last bit of tolerance.
Lu Jinchuan and Tang Quyan looked at the imperial edict held in front of them by two people, their faces solemn but with some embarrassment in their hearts.
The younger generation in the family is getting a divorce... The family affairs have not been properly dealt with, and now they have to join forces to thoroughly investigate the "crimes" of these people on the list.
How can they join forces without tacit understanding and common interests?
After the morning court session, while Tang Quyan was still hesitating about how to start the conversation, Lu Jinchuan had already taken the initiative to invite him to his house for a chat.
It is impossible to divorce. Even if Tang Quyan and Liu divorce, he will not let Lu Xinlan and Tang Chongli divorce.
So, embarrassment will disappear if you grit your teeth!
At least... Pei is a legitimate lady who is dignified and steady, completely different from Liu!
Lu Jinchuan thought about what Lu Xinran had said in her heart the day before, and was already wondering how he would persuade Tang Quyan to divorce his wife for the sake of his son if Lu Xinlan could not be persuaded to divorce!
