Phoenix Hairpin

Su Zhaorong clutched the handkerchief and slowly wiped away tears, and a trace of inexplicable panic passed through her heart.

 

  From the day the marriage was bestowed by the imperial decree, something was wrong with Li Hao.

 

  Words and deeds were still the same.
The occasional coldness in his eyes made his mother a little startled.
The two sentences just now were quite harsh.

 

  Su Zhaorong wiped away tears, then looked at her son, still as patient as ever.

 

  Well, she was too concerned just now.

 

  Her son has always been the most filial.

 

  Su Zhaorong cheered up and said: “Forget it, the matter is already like this, it is useless to think too much.
Ah Hao, what you said is also reasonable.
Today, the Marquis of Guangping entered the palace on purpose, he must have said something, otherwise, your Father would not be so angry.”

 

  After speaking, Su Zhaorong felt relieved again: “The Meng family's marriage is really well done.
In the future, you will win over the Meng family well, and with the help of the Marquis of Guangping, you will not be underestimated everywhere.”

 

  Li Hao glanced at his mother who was full of joy, and lightly reminded: “It is better for Mother to mention the three words Marquis of Guangping less.”

 

  Su Zhaorong: “…”

 

  Su Zhaorong's face turned red and white, feeling both ashamed and embarrassed.

 

  After she gave birth to Li Hao, then only was she taken in as a concubine.
There were many people in the Li family who knew about the affair between her and the Marquis of Guangping back then.
She suffered a lot of humiliation because of it.

 

  Even the young Li Hao often listened to gossip.
Later, she cried and confessed to Li Yuan, and Li Yuan stepped forward to suppress these rumours.

 

  What Li Hao should know and what he shouldn't know, he knows everything.
Moreover, as he grew older, it was becoming clearer to him day by day why his background was so much criticized by others.

 

  Li Chang was six years younger than Li Hao.
When he was born, no one in the inner house mentioned these old things.
Therefore, Li Chang knew nothing about it.

 

  Li Chang glanced at his indifferent elder brother, and then at Su Zhaorong, whose face was changing with a strange expression, and couldn't help asking: “Mother, third brother, what are you talking about?” 

 

“Nothing.” Su Zhaorong hurriedly replied: ” You're a child, you don't understand anything, don't talk too much.”

 

  Li Hao didn't want to tell his younger brother about Chen Guzi's rotten sesame seeds (1), so he picked up a piece of fat meat and put it in Li Chang's bowl.

 

  Li Chang felt a little depressed, he lowered his head and continued to eat silently.

 

  Li Hao looked at Su Zhaorong and said in a low voice: “Father is so angry, I don't know when he will be able to calm down.
In the past few days, Mother must stay away.” 

 

The only one who dared to approach Emperor Yongjia when he was angry was the eldest prince, the son of Meng Guifei.
The rest of them, including Empress Qiao and the second prince, did not have the ability to appease Emperor Yongjia's anger.

 

  Su Zhaorong responded unhappily.

 

  …

 

  Lu Mansion.

 

  Lu Lin was in a good mood.
He ate three bowls of rice and drank a jug of wine in the evening.

 

  Lu Mingyu and Lu Lin went to the study and she asked about the whole story of today's trip to the palace.

 

  Lu Lin spoke carefully, then raised his eyebrows and smiled: “The Marquis of Puyang was complacent at first, but after I joined forces with the Marquis of Guangping, he was almost sweating.
The Emperor's face was also very ugly.
I guess the harem will be in turmoil today.”

 

  Lu Mingyu’s eyes flickered, and she said calmly: “The ones who were punished were the Concubine Qin and the Fourth Prince, and the ones who were wronged were the Empress and the Second Prince.
The Empress Dowager must be safe and well.” 

 

As for whether Su Zhaorong's mother and son were wronged or not, she doesn't care at all.

 

  Lu Mingyu spoke very firmly.

 

  Lu Lin couldn't help but glance at his daughter: “Why are you so sure!” Before Lu Mingyu could answer, he laughed again and said, “It must be the Second Prince who told you about the temper of the people in the harem.” 

 

Of course, it is also possible that the Third Prince had said that before

 

 

  Lu Lin silently added this sentence to his mind.

 

  However, right now, the daughter was already engaged with the Second Prince, so it's okay not to mention the past with the Third Prince.
There was a past relationship between brother-in-law and sister-in-law, not to mention in the Royal family, even the drama books dare not write like this.

 

  There was no one who knew her father more than a daughter.

 

  Lu Mingyu looked at her imaginative father helplessly, amusedly, “Father, what are you thinking about again?”

 

  How could Lu Lin admit it, and quickly changed the topic: “I was thinking that there is a muddled and eccentric Queen Mother Zhao in the harem.
, there is the pampered concubine Meng, your future mother-in-law, Empress Qiao, and concubine Qin Su Zhaorong.
Three women together are enough to sing a show.
In the future, when you marry the second prince, you will have to deal with so many people.
It makes me feel sorry for you.”

 

  ”It's not just them.” Lu Mingyu said lightly, “There are also the unruly and difficult Princess Hui'an and the favoured Princess Jing'an.
Then in the future, I will have to deal with all the zhóulǐs.
(2)” 

 

None of the people in the palace were fuel-efficient lamps.

 

  In her previous life, she stood in front of her weak mother-in-law and charged forward.
With her own strength, she blocked all obstacles.

 

  In this life, if she enters the harem again, she will never be stupid again.
Moreover, she knows everyone's temperament and shortcomings like the back of her hand.
Even if they meet, she is not afraid at all.

 

  Lu Lin didn't know this, but felt sorry for his daughter's future situation, and sighed: “Although there are many people in our Lu family, we have one heart, harmony and love.
Everyone in the harem has their own plans, and everyone is not easy to get along with.”

 

  ”Xiaoyu, you are the one who nods your head and is happy with this marriage.
Father will not stop you from marrying the boy you like.
From my heart, I really don't want you to wade into this muddy water.” 

 

Lu Mingyu with a soft look in her eyes, said softly, “Father, don't worry about me.
Since I dare to marry, I'm already mentally prepared.”

 

  The candlelight was bright, and Lu Mingyu's eyes were even brighter.

 

  With exuberant vigour and fearless courage.

 

  Lu Lin felt a sense of pride in his heart: “That's right.
'You're right.
If the enemy attacks, we defend.
If water comes, we use soil to block it.
No matter what happens, always remember one thing: don't let yourself be at a disadvantage.”

 

  Lu Mingyu raised her eyebrows and smiled, clenched her fists, and motioned to Lu Lin: “Look, Dad, do I seem to be someone who will suffer?”

 

  That's true.

 

  With Xiaoyu's amazing power and martial arts, there were very few people in this world who can surpass her.
In the harem, there was nothing more than verbal confrontation, no matter how powerful they are, they were all paper tigers in front of her.

 

  If they really started to fight, Xiaoyu can punch them one by one.

 

  Lu Lin thought happily and said a few words meaningfully: “Don't bully others.
If you are not furious, don't beat up anyone casually.” 

 

“It is ok to beat up your zhóulǐ, dàgū (3), xiǎogū (4), and others, but it is not good to beat up any elders.”

 

  Lu Mingyu knew what her father was going to say as soon as she guessed, and couldn't help laughing: “Father looks down on me too much.
Even though I have a bad temper, I don't go around beating people all day long.”

 

  Lu Lin slightly nodded: “Even if do that, it's okay.
It's not that important.
Daddy will support you.”

 

  Lu Mingyu burst out laughing: “Father, you're really going to spoil me like this.”

 

  Lu Mingyu's appearance resembled that of his wife who had been dead for many years, and this smile was even more charming.

 

  Lu Lin thought of his deceased beloved wife, and his voice became softer: “I'm happy to spoil my daughter.”
