Chapter 112 Rebellion

After hearing his words, Lu Qing just smiled and said: "Public affairs are public affairs, private affairs are private affairs. The Second Prince is helping His Majesty share his worries. This is a good thing. You should learn from him."

"If I don't learn from him, why should I learn from him! He's always the one who's always trying to get ahead, and he's not tired. But seeing him pretending like that, I'm tired too..." Lu Ze couldn't help but complain when he mentioned his second brother. After a few words, he glanced at Zhu Yu and realized that there was an outsider present. He quickly swallowed the rest of his words and changed the subject, "I don't know what he's thinking!

Didn't they just get married? People say there are four great joys in life: a downpour after a long drought, meeting an old friend in a foreign land, the wedding night, and getting your name on the imperial examination.

As a prince, he didn't grow crops, so there was nothing to be happy about whether it rained or not.

It seems unlikely to meet old friends in a foreign land, and there is even less chance to experience it as passing the imperial examination.

Of the four great joys, only the wedding night remains. He's been married for just a few days and he's already running away. I really don't know what he's thinking!"

"Don't talk about others, I did remember you talking about getting married," Lu Qing didn't respond to his question, and suddenly asked, "I heard that His Majesty has also arranged a marriage for you, with a family of scholars, and they're just waiting for you to get a little older to choose a date.

Did the Second Prince's wedding stir up your own thoughts and make you anxious? "

Lu Ze probably didn't expect Lu Qing to suddenly bring up this matter. His childish face flushed red and he waved his hands at Lu Qing hurriedly: "Brother, this is too rude!

I was sincerely thinking about you and standing up for you, but why are you bullying me?"

"Look at what you said, how can this be called a run." Lu Qing also laughed, "You just said that there are four great joys in life.

The Second Prince is a prince, and you are also a prince, so for you, the other three joys..."

"Oh my! I'm telling you something! Brother, you're really..." Lu Ze looked a little embarrassed and uncomfortable, and hurriedly stepped back. "Anyway, I've already told you everything I wanted to say. I won't stay here for you to tease me!
"Brother, remember to bring me some delicious food and fun things when you come back. Otherwise, don't blame me for coming to your house every day to bother you!"

After saying this, he quickly waved to the servant who came with him, and the master and servant ran away in a hurry.

"Slow down, I'm not going to chase you. If you rush around like this, your mother will blame you if she finds out." Lu Qing reminded him from behind.

Lu Ze paused for a moment and actually slowed down. He thought that what Lu Qing reminded him of might indeed happen.

After Lu Ze left, the gentle smile on Lu Qing's face gradually faded. He frowned slightly, as if thinking about something. He turned his head to look at Zhu Yu beside him. There seemed to be something in his eyes, but he didn't say it clearly.

Zhu Yu hadn't thought much about it at first, but now he was reminded by the look he gave him.

"When the emperor came to visit you at home before, he told you to go to Lizhou, but he didn't say that he asked Lu Zhang to inspect the border of Jinshuo?" She guessed where the problem lay.

Lu Qing nodded silently.

Zhu Yu was confused. It had not been long since she married Lu Qing. When she got married and left Shuo Kingdom, everything was fine. She had never heard of any tension between Jin Kingdom and Shuo Kingdom.

What's more, when Emperor Jin arranged for Lu Qing to marry his concubine, the daughter of King Shuo, wasn't it to prevent him from finding a marriage with support, so that he would have a powerful Yue family and take the opportunity to expand his power?
If her father, the prince, had the ability to threaten Emperor Jin and make him uneasy, perhaps the one being granted marriage wouldn't be someone like Lu Qing, the carefree prince who wasn't at all carefree. "This wasn't something I had anticipated before," she thought for a moment, frowning, and asked Lu Qing, "Can we still proceed according to our original plan?

Since His Majesty has sent Lu Zhang to patrol the border...should I stay at home?
If the emperor suddenly summons me for something and finds out I'm not at home, would that be considered deceiving the emperor? Wouldn't that get you into trouble?"

Lu Qing frowned slightly and looked at Zhu Yu, as if he had just heard some extremely stupid words from her.

Finally, he couldn't help it anymore and raised his finger to point at Zhu Yu's forehead. Seeing that Zhu Yu subconsciously closed his eyes, he couldn't help laughing and took his hand back.

"You're stupid, but the fact that Lu Zhang was patrolling the border can make you think of so many things all at once.

I told you that you are not stupid, yet you are saying stupid things here again.

We don't know the exact purpose of Lu Zhang's trip, and it's obvious that His Majesty doesn't want me to know." He said, looking towards the gate, "Then the possibility you mentioned may happen, or it may not.

If His Majesty really wants to take you out of the palace while I'm away, how likely do you think it is that this will be a good thing?"

Zhu Yu shook his head: "Almost nothing."

"That's right. Since I knew that you were either safe or in danger, and no one could protect you when I was not at the palace, I still kept you at home. Who would do such a stupid thing?" Lu Qing asked with a smile.

Zhu Yu opened her mouth, and Lu Qing had already guessed what she wanted to say: "You said before that you and I are in the same boat.

You are my wife. If the emperor captures you, do you think he will let me go?
Since we already know what the worst-case scenario is, why would I keep you here? Of course we should go together. There's no need to worry about it. If there really is someone, it's better for us to work together to find a solution than to be passive separately."

Zhu Yu thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. So he stopped worrying about it and nodded: "Lizhou doesn't seem to be far from the border of Shuo Kingdom, right?"

"It's only about seven or eight hundred miles, which isn't close, but it's not far compared to the capital."

Zhu Yu frowned and thought for a moment, then relaxed his brows and smiled at Lu Qing: "It's okay. It seems that as long as you and I don't get pinned to the ground by the imperial guards after arriving in Lizhou, there shouldn't be any serious problems."

"Oh? I'd like to hear more about it." Lu Qing didn't expect Zhu Yu to come to a conclusion so quickly.

"If there really is something unusual happening on my father's side, the most important thing His Majesty should do is to use various excuses to keep you from leaving the capital. After Prince Yi comes to inspect, it will be convenient for him to punish us.

If there is no movement from my father, but..."

Zhu Yu's thoughts were very clear, but he had only said half of it when he suddenly realized that what he was going to say next was really outrageous and he would lose his head in a matter of minutes if it got out.
