Lu Baichuan didn't know what to say at all. Speaking of this young lady from Duke Mu's mansion, he remembered one thing.

On the night when he was trapped, he stopped a carriage on the road and forced the people in the car to cover him and leave.

I didn’t think much about it at the time, but now that I think about it, isn’t the other party the young lady from Duke Mu’s mansion?

But he was wearing a mask at the time, so the other party probably didn’t recognize him, so he wouldn’t have been deeply in love with him at that time, right?

As for the night of the palace banquet, I had not seen her for a few hours, and I had spoken to her, so it was even less likely that she would fall in love with her.

After thinking about it, he came to the conclusion that his wife must care too much about him, so she would think she likes him when she sees a woman.

"No, I have nothing to do with her."

He explained very seriously, not wanting his wife to be jealous.

He Jiuniang held her chin with one hand and scooped porridge into her mouth with the other, her mind running rapidly.

"I don't think it's possible. I think that girl's face is not very good, but she is not a very evil person, because she won't be willing to kill me just by looking at you. On the contrary, she is Mrs. Mu Guogong is very hostile to me."

Lu Baichuan then realized that his wife was not jealous, but was seriously thinking about the other party's motives.

When I thought about it, I felt a little embarrassed. Isn’t it because I am being sentimental?

Fortunately, my daughter-in-law was thinking about something and did not notice so many of his thoughts. After calming down, she said seriously: "We have been in the country for such a long time, and we have indeed offended many people, but with There has never been any contact with the Duke of Mu's Mansion, so there is no such thing as offending. The people in the Duke of Mu's Mansion are all pillars of the country, but after arriving at the current Duke of Mu, there has been no breakthrough. It is just superficial, and the inside is pretty much the same. , Logically speaking, with our current status, they should come to cling to us instead of buying murderers. There may be other things involved in this."

"What you said makes sense. , so what could it be?"

He Jiuniang sighed, why is her smart little mind not working right now?

Lu Baichuan almost blurted out that it must be related to her life experience, but he was afraid that he would guess wrong, so he did not say it directly.

"No matter what it is, we are going back to Jingzhou tomorrow. It won't be too late to check it out slowly when we come back after the new year. By then, any accounts must be settled clearly."
< br />In fact, he wanted to take the opportunity to check out Duke Mu's mansion. He also saw the way Mrs. Mu looked at his wife that day. It was full of viciousness and fierceness.Lu, there must be something secret involved.

Even if she knew that her current wife was not her original wife, but it was a matter of life experience, Lu Baichuan felt that it was necessary to be more cautious. Even if she was not her original wife, her closeness to Jiang Ruoya was innate. It could also be the consciousness left behind by the previous wife.

Anyway, Lu Baichuan attaches great importance to this matter and wants to send someone to check it out. It is more practical than making random guesses here.

He Jiuniang was too lazy to think about it. She was really tired after a busy night. She ate and went to bed. She had something to do tomorrow.

The next morning, the couple sat together and had breakfast. Lu Baichuan went hunting with the princes, while He Jiuniang went to prescribe the last medicine for Zhou Yanlan’s sister-in-law.

In the evening, the princes will have a bonfire party, eat some barbecue, and let their princess get closer to He Jiuniang. The whole day is full of arrangements, and they have no time to think about anything else.

In the early morning of the court, the old emperor had already announced the change of crown prince. There were very few people in the court who opposed it. They even knew that this day was coming when the old emperor let King Chen take power, so there was no one. What kind of fire and water was stirred up made King Mao very sad.

He was the prince when he was born, and he stayed in this position for almost thirty years. Now that he was replaced, not many people stood by him, and he was in a bad mood.

But at this time, no one cared about his thoughts. Everyone was discussing what a good day should be for the coronation ceremony of the new prince.

The prince sighed and thought to himself, forget it. Instead of competing with these people, he might as well go back and tell his princess that she must work hard to have a good relationship with He Jiuniang at night.

Now that things are like this, the good relationship with He Jiuniang is not for the purpose of making a comeback or anything, but simply to be friends with the Lu family.

Yes, just be friends.

Look at Lao Liu, after becoming friends with the Lu family, what good things did he not get? The seasoning packets from Lu Black Duck and the few gifts given out in public, which one doesn't make people feel itchy?

What's more, after the Chinese New Year, Lu Baichuan will take office. By then, the Lu family's business will be done in the capital. They will naturally have to improve their relationship so that they can reap the benefits in the future.

After all, they had inquired about the limited supply of Lu Black Duck in Jingzhou every day. The new products in Jiayuan Pavilion had to be snatched. If there was no back door, or the relationship with the Lu family was not good, , that cannot be bought even with money.

After all, everyone knows that He Jiu Niang is a woman who refuses to take any soft stance, and she has the support of her father, but she must not be offended.

Yes, King Mao has alreadyHe gave up the idea of ​​making a comeback. He had been in power for so many years and was really tired. He admitted that he was the Adou who could not be supported. He did not want to work hard anymore. It would not be a bad idea to live a simple life. Those who were left behind by his father in the imperial court The days of correcting memorials in the study were really painful.

In this current situation, it’s just a loss of face, it’s no big deal.

You can’t eat your face as a meal, right?

"His Royal Highness King Mao, the emperor is calling you!"

King Mao had so many thoughts in his heart that he didn't even notice what was happening around him, but the people around him whispered reminders , he came back to his senses.

He hurriedly said: "Father, please speak, I am listening."

The old emperor had a headache when he saw him distracted, and asked: "I Why are you so dazed and thinking when I talk to you?"

"My son is thinking about what prey he can catch today to drink with."

He is thinking without thinking. Just say whatever you want.

There was a controlled chuckle below. He was replaced as the prince, and he was already being laughed at before he left the hall.

The old emperor was not angry, and sighed softly: "Over the years, I have always asked you to do things you don't like. In the future, you can do whatever you like. I will never let you do it again. You're doing something you don't like."

These words made the prince feel a little sad. From childhood to adulthood, his father loved him the most. It was him who failed to live up to his expectations, not the material. However, he was arrogant and arrogant. Seeing Lao San getting more and more powerful, he continued to use dirty tricks on Lao San without being convinced.

The result was a complete defeat.

He originally thought that his father would look down on him and ridicule him like everyone else, but in the end he let himself do whatever he liked.

King Mao was so moved that the old emperor said to the prince again: "Third brother, you deserve the position of prince, but it was your brother who gave it to you. You sit in this position. , we should help him more."

"Yes, I will obey my father's teachings."

The prince curled his lips, and he was in a wonderful mood. Now, if you seek benevolence, you will receive benevolence, and there is no dissatisfaction at all.

The old emperor’s words were apparently addressed to the prince, but in fact they were a warning to the courtiers who had just laughed at King Mao.

This is to tell everyone clearly that even if King Mao is replaced, not everyone can ridicule him.
