Chapter 402: Lu Family 2

The next day, Ling Jingshu got up early to pay her respects to Sun.

"I was a little confused after leaving the palace these few days, so I haven't come to pay my respects to my aunt. Please don't blame me, aunt." Ling Jingshu smiled and bowed.

Sun was not surprised. She pulled Ling Jingshu to her side and looked at her carefully. She was relieved when she saw that her face was still rosy: "I have been worried since the maid came back to report yesterday. I wanted to ask a doctor to see you today!"

"I am sorry to have worried you, aunt." Ling Jingshu smiled apologetically: "I am fine, but I always feel a little sleepy and lazy. Maybe I am used to being busy on weekdays, and I am not used to this leisure time."

Sun heard this, pity appeared in her eyes: "You have been raised in luxury since you were a child, and you have never served others. You have suffered in the palace for more than two years."

Ask yourself, if the person who entered the palace to work was Ling Jingyan, she, as a mother, would not know how distressed she is.

Ling Jingshu was quite calm and frank: "It is indeed busy in the palace. However, it is not as hard as my aunt imagined. Especially after I came to the side of the Queen, the Queen has always treated me very well."

"Yes! If the Queen did not like you very much, she would not have arranged your marriage to Wei, the imperial physician." Sun took over the conversation with a smile, and the more she thought about it, the more satisfied she was with this marriage.

The Crown Prince could not be climbed, and it was really good to climb the big tree of Queen Wei.

Wei Yan is the only brother of Queen Wei and a legitimate uncle of the emperor. He is young and handsome, has outstanding medical skills, and has a very good reputation. Sooner or later, he will be in charge of the Imperial Hospital.

Being able to marry Wei Yan is an excellent marriage.

When talking about her marriage with Wei Yan, Ling Jingshu felt a deep sweetness in her heart. The happiness and joy naturally flowed from the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, making her look more and more beautiful.

The brilliance is dazzling and touching.

Jiang soon arrived, bringing Jun Ge'er with her.

Jun Ge'er is three years old this year, with red lips and white teeth, and he walks steadily without any panic. With a white and tender face, he saluted with a fist in a serious manner: "Jun Ge greets grandma and aunt."

He spoke in a baby voice, but he insisted on acting like an adult, not to mention how cute he was.

When Sun saw her precious grandson, she was immediately happy and smiled. She stretched out her hand to pull Jun Ge'er into her arms, and her heart ached.

Jun Ge'er obviously didn't like such intimacy, but he couldn't struggle, and his little face was full of helplessness and reluctance.

Ling Jingshu looked at him and liked him very much. She smiled at Jiang and said, "In a blink of an eye, Jun Ge'er has grown up so big. When I entered the palace, he was not even born yet!"

Jiang looked at her son lovingly and lovingly, and replied with a smile, "Yes! Time flies. I always feel that he was born not long ago, but now he can walk, run and talk."

"Jun Ge'er is articulate and quite precocious. In another two years, he will be able to start reading." Looking at Jun Ge'er, Ling Jingshu naturally thought of Ling Xiao when he was young: "Ah Xiao has been smart since he was a child. He can read and write at the age of four."

Jiang smiled and said, "I also plan to let Jun Ge'er start reading at the age of four!"

Talking and laughing, the morning passed.

...

In the next few days, the Ling Mansion was calm. Master Ling still went out early and came back late, and often socialized with colleagues.

Only Ling Jingshu knew that under this calm, there were invisible waves and undercurrents. Once the Lu family was involved in the shocking case of assassinating the emperor and the prince, the Ling family could not stay out of it completely and would inevitably be implicated and affected.

In order to avoid causing chaos in the court and panic among officials, Lupin was secretly interrogated and imprisoned, which was carried out secretly. It was not until the "interrogation" and "verification" produced conclusive evidence that was enough to convict Lupin and the Lu family that the Crown Prince spoke out at the court meeting.

As expected by the Crown Prince, this matter immediately caused a lot of discussion among the officials.

After the emperor had a stroke, he could no longer attend court. Now it is the Crown Prince who manages the government on behalf of the emperor.

The Crown Prince has always been known for his wisdom and gentleness. Compared with the majestic emperor, he is more friendly. Therefore, at the court meeting presided over by the Crown Prince, all officials also have the courage to speak freely.

The Minister of War bowed his hands with a sad face and said: "Your Highness, the Ministry of War has produced such a traitor. As a minister, I cannot escape the blame. Please punish him together."

While apologizing, he cursed Lupin in his heart.

He dared to get involved in the bloody storm of seizing the throne. He was really impatient to live!

Lupin was the head of the Ministry of War. He committed a serious crime. As an official of the Ministry of War, he was inevitably implicated.

Unexpectedly, the attitude of the prince was quite gentle: "Lupin is so bold and reckless. What does this have to do with you? The matter involves the Prince of Yan and the Prince of An. I can't make the decision on my own. After the court is over, I will report this matter to my father and let him decide."

So it seems that he will not be angry with him.

The Minister of War felt relieved and said that Your Highness was generous and wise, and did not plead for Lupin at all.

If the Minister of War is like this, others will be even more unwilling to speak up.

If Lupin wants to die, let him go! Who will risk his life to plead for him?

The position of the head of the Ministry of War is not big or small, but now it is vacant, we must quickly come up with a suitable candidate to recommend to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

After the court was dismissed, the Crown Prince and the Crown Prince went to the Purple Palace to meet the emperor.

The Crown Prince reported that Lupin was an accomplice, and at the end he said: "...How to deal with Lupin, please let the Grandfather decide!"

The Emperor was reluctant to take the lives of Prince Yan and Prince An, but he didn't have so much pity for an ordinary official. He sneered murderously: "This Lupin, what a dog's guts! He is ambitious, and he still wants to be a follower. He is seeking death, I have to help him!"

"Of course Lupin must be executed." The Crown Prince's calm face became more and more cold and solemn: "All the members of the Lu family have been escorted to the capital. According to the laws of the Great Zhou, all men will be beheaded, and all women and children under the age of ten can be spared and exiled outside the pass."

The Emperor didn't care about the life and death of the Lu family, and said lightly: "This little thing, you can decide!"

In comparison, the most important thing is how to deal with Prince Yan and Prince An.

When the Emperor thought of these two rebellious sons, he was furious. But he couldn't bear to kill his two sons. He was very conflicted and hesitant.

The Crown Prince responded and exchanged a knowing look with the Crown Prince.

It didn't matter that the Emperor was reluctant to kill the Prince of Yan. Anyway, the Prince of Yan couldn't escape the charge of treason, so it didn't matter if he was locked up in the clan house for the rest of his life.
