Chapter 390 Wake up

A heavy snowfall in early winter lasted for seven days.

The entire capital city was covered in snow, and there was ice and snow everywhere.

Thick ice and snow not only covered everything, but also crushed many houses and trees.

They thought that after the snow stopped, the ice and snow would melt quickly as soon as the sun came out. No one expected that the snow would fall again just one day later.

And because of this endless snow, many people inside and outside Beijing were ruined and their lives were lost.

It is said that auspicious snow heralds a good harvest, but if the snow falls thickly, it is not necessarily a good thing.

Continuous heavy snowfall has caused houses to collapse in many places. Not to mention repairing their houses, some people don't even have firewood to keep themselves warm. Not to mention the number of elderly people and children who have died of starvation due to the snow and cold.

Even Lu Hebei, who was already in poor health, became increasingly ill.

In the past few days, I couldn't even get out of bed.

Lu Sheige knew that if Chen Luxing had not fallen into the water, his second brother would not have become so seriously ill.

During the three days when Chen Luxing's fever persisted, Lu Hebei also didn't get a good rest.

Separated by a wall, Lu Xiangge was awakened by the emperor's cough in the middle of the night, and then listened to his cough all night long until dawn.

Lu Shege somewhat knew what Lu Hebei was thinking.

If something happens to Chen Luxing and Lu Hebei dies again, there will only be a few women left in the palace, and no one can save this great business empire.

With luck, the Queen Mother and the Queen will choose a child from the Chen family to inherit. Both the Queen Mother and the Queen will be honored and raised. However, it may not be possible to protect anyone.

If they are unlucky, this great country will be handed over to others, and women like them will probably have to die in order to avoid being bullied.

And if someone else is causing trouble in this matter, Mrs. Gongsun cannot be held responsible.

On the sixteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, something big happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

That day, Mrs. Gongsun took advantage of the snow to stop at noon and took a walk in the garden. Unexpectedly, her foot slipped and Mrs. Gongsun fell violently. Not only did her leg break, she also had a big hole in her head, and she was bleeding.

When the Prime Minister's Mansion sent the news, Gongsun Wanying was holding a rattle to coax the little princess to learn to raise her head.

Hearing this, he was shocked and hurriedly got off the bed. His feet were tripped by a brocade quilt. Fortunately, the palace maid on the side helped him quickly. He didn't fall, but sprained his ankle, which became swollen within a moment.

Lu Xiange originally thought that Prime Minister Gongsun would make Mrs. Gongsun fall ill and die. After all, she was the queen's mother and the prince's grandmother, so it was definitely not appropriate to send her to the family temple. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Gongsun actually broke her leg.

This leg must have been deliberately caused by someone to cause her to fall. This leg was probably due to Mrs. Gongsun's bad luck. There happened to be a small piece of stone where the child happened to fall.

Thinking about it, Mrs. Gongsun's head will heal soon, but this leg may never heal.

The dignified Mrs. Rongan, the queen's mother and the prince's grandmother, turned out to be lame. After this, Mrs. Gongsun was afraid that she would never leave the gate of Gongsun Mansion again.

She couldn't afford to lose face like this, and she didn't dare to come out and shame the queen and the young prince.

Lu Sheige looked at the crying queen and said coldly: "Since Mrs. Gongsun is injured, let the imperial doctor take a look. Why are you crying?"

She heard that the queen twisted her leg and the emperor could not come over, so she brought the young prince to visit.

Unexpectedly, the queen told her about Mrs. Gongsun's broken leg as soon as they met. The implication between the lines was that she wanted to go back and have a look. Of course, it would be better if the emperor could go back with her.

Don't say that Mrs. Gongsun had any intention of framing Lu Qingluan. Even if she didn't, the emperor should not come to visit Mrs. Gongsun if she broke her leg.

"His Majesty."

The queen didn't expect that the emperor could be so cruel. She couldn't stop her tears and kept falling. "I, I feel sorry for my mother. My mother broke her leg and her head was broken. My mother only has me."

A daughter..."

Lu Sheige interrupted her words and asked: "Queen, do you know why the people from Yuehua Palace are there when the young prince goes to play in the West Garden?"

Gongsun Wanying was startled and suddenly raised her head to look at the emperor in front of her. She was so frightened that she even forgot to shed tears.

Lu Xiuge took the handkerchief from Gongsun Wanying's hand and gently wiped her tears: "If you go to the Prime Minister's Mansion, then you can ask Mrs. Rong'an's mother Liu on my behalf if she wants to save her cousin Anhe.

.”

"What?"

Gongsun Wanying's eyes widened, she couldn't believe what she heard.

"Mother Liu, Mother Liu is not my grandfather..."

At this point, Gongsun Wanying seemed to realize that she had said the wrong thing, and quickly raised her hand to cover her mouth.

Even if her mother did something wrong, she can't drag her grandfather into the water now.

"I know that Mother Liu was assigned to your mother by your grandfather, because Mother Liu is a smart person, and she has helped Mrs. Rongan manage the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion properly over the years. However, Prime Minister Gongsun may not know that Mother Liu

Her son loves to gamble. In order to pay off her son’s gambling debt, Mother Liu had to accept other people’s money.”

"Originally, some people felt that it was too cold to have you alone in this harem. Even if Lu Zhaoyi was included, it would only be two people. If something happened to the Gongsun Mansion, your position as the queen would not be guaranteed. Even if the queen's position belongs to their family,

My daughter can't sit for the time being, so I can still try the fourth concubine's seat. One day, if necessary, I can threaten you with what Mrs. Rongan did, and maybe someone else can take the queen's seat.

.”

Lu Sheige looked at Gongsun Wanying's pale face and felt a tightness in his chest.

What Queen Gongsun Wanying has done can only be described as unworthy. There are no disputes in the harem, and her temperament is not strong enough. So far it has been smooth sailing.

But once the harem turns out to be what the ministers expected, and the queen, four concubines, and nine concubines are all arranged one by one, not to mention the position of the queen, she is afraid that even her children may not be able to keep it.

Lu Hebei's original intention was not to let the queen know all this. He was about to die soon, and the queen would be a widow at a young age. Although she had two children to accompany her, not everyone could endure the loneliness in the palace.

.

He owed the queen this, so naturally he wanted to make up for it.

Lu Xiangge didn't think so. Since people outside the palace could reach into the palace, they wanted to kill or maim the young prince, and then pull the queen out of the back seat. By then, even if the emperor and the empress were deeply in love, for this big business

Regardless of the country, the emperor also wants to ennoble the queen and take in concubines.

For the benefit of the family, I don’t know how many people dare to take risks.

Lu Sheige couldn't gamble with the lives of her nephews and nieces. Whether it was Chen Luxing or Chen Luming, these two were the children left behind by her second brother. What she had to do was to protect them from growing up safely.

As for the queen, she should take on the responsibility of a mother, instead of being confused and thinking about the love between her children.

Royal family, how can there be love between children?
