Sister Lu Xinran stood under the eaves for nearly half an hour before they saw Song Junhe leave Wenhua Hall with a pale face.

But when he left, he did not forget to look in their direction.

Lu Xinran always felt that her look had a deeper meaning, but he walked quickly, so he only had time to see one sentence: "Go back and think about where you went wrong."

The emperor just let him go like that?

She was a little surprised, but then she remembered that Song Junhe was the eldest son, and normal people would have extra feelings for their first child.

Moreover, if there is a legitimate son, the eldest son will be the heir; if there is no legitimate son, the eldest son will be the heir.

In theory, as long as Song Junhe doesn't do anything stupid, the throne should be his.

While they were thinking in a mess, Eunuch Fu came over and told them to go to the palace for an audience.

Lu Xinlan wanted to advise her to keep her eyes on the nose and her nose on the heart as soon as she entered the door, and not to say or think about anything, but this sister had her own ideas and loved to complain. She was best at pretending to obey but actually disobeying, so forget it.

Anyway, the emperor didn't dare to kill her, nor did he want to imprison her, and this was enough.

Inside the hall, the emperor was not in a very good mood.

Although the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver that fell from the sky helped him solve his urgent problem, compared with the silver, he was more unwilling to see his sons grow up and have ambitions that they shouldn't have.

He was thinking, and had not yet decided whether to test the princes through Lu Xinran.

The familiar chaotic voices flooded into his ears, and he instantly restrained his thoughts. With his hands behind his back, he was about to show the majesty of a superior, when the words he had just said to Song Junhe came into his ears.

[I can tolerate your brothers having ambitions, but I will pass down the throne. For the sake of the Song family, I will choose a capable and resourceful prince to succeed me.]

[But you are wrong because I am not old yet, and I am not going to die soon. What do you want to do by colluding with the court officials now? ]

[Do you want to challenge me and force me to abdicate and give the throne to you? ]

[I can let bygones be bygones for this matter, but you go back and think carefully about where you went wrong! ]

[If you continue to do stupid things, don't blame me for sending you to the northwest. Don't even think about returning to the capital in your lifetime.]

The emperor wanted to deliberately avoid the two sisters: "..."

So, was this inner voice reminding him how stupid his actions just now were?

Lu Xinran secretly read this passage and was secretly surprised and felt a little strange.

[Stupid thing? What stupid thing? Did the emperor know that Song Junhe and Zhao Jingtian were having an affair? ]

[You should know. If an emperor doesn't have his own information channel, he will be laughed at. ]

[Song Junhe sent people to kill us yesterday. The two horses went crazy in the downtown area, and Song Junyan led people to chase us out to rescue us. The emperor doesn't care about small people like us, but Song Junyan will always care about us.]

[So if we can find out that Song Junhe sent people to kill us, we can find out the secret between Zhao Jingtian and him.]

Lu Xinran was very considerate and closed the loop of this matter in his mind!

I make things seem reasonable.

[As expected, the eldest son is the one who is most likely to be given high hopes, and the emperor is no exception. Knowing that Song Junhe and Zhao Jingtian bribed court officials and formed cliques, the emperor just told him to go back and reflect on himself.]

emperor:"……"

He just felt that the matter was still under control.

Moreover, it is normal for a prince to have ambitions for the throne and to have some plans.

I think that when he was just a teenager, under the planning of his mother, he fought against all his royal brothers step by step and finally sat on the throne.

He coughed lightly, not wanting to listen to any more of these chaotic sighs. His lips moved but he couldn't think of what to say.

She ordered them to be brought into the palace, just to take a shortcut and confirm what her eldest son was thinking.

Now that his goal had been achieved... Thinking that the longer Lu Xinran stayed beside him, the more of his privacy he would see, he hurriedly coughed again.

"The Queen Mother has been thinking about you all the time. She was very worried when she heard about your accident. You should go and pay your respects to her."

Lu Xinran: “…”

So they waited so long just to hear this sentence?

Even though they complained, the two sisters didn't want to stay here any longer. After bowing, they left together.

In Yongshou Palace, the queen, who had learned that the two sisters had entered the palace, was already waiting here.

They had already learned from the palace people what had happened in the court the day before, as well as how the two sisters had an accident and Song Junyan had brought people to rescue them.

Knowing that the two of them were safe and only suffered minor injuries, the Queen Mother began to worry about her grandson.

"I heard that Junyan had eight ribs broken in order to save Xinran?"

The Queen could not hide her heartache when she thought of the news sent from the Imperial Medical Bureau.

"Yes, not only are there eight broken ribs, but there are also many abrasions on the body."

When the imperial doctors were setting his bones, the pain was so severe that he was sweating profusely, but he did not utter a sound and endured it all with gritted teeth.

She felt heartbroken when she heard this, as the child grew up under her protection.

Although she didn't keep him by her side to take care of him, she still gave him all the care he deserved. Since she had no children, she already regarded him as her own son.

"Jun Yan has been like this since he was young. No matter how much he was wronged, he never said a word. Fortunately, he has a warm and gentle personality."

I didn't become a sinister and cold person because of what happened in the past.

While the two were talking, a palace maid came in to announce that the two sisters had arrived.

Seeing the two sisters walking slowly, especially seeing Lu Xinran who was unharmed, the Queen thought of Song Junyan who was still in the Imperial Medical Bureau.

Lu Xinran bowed respectfully and saw the worry in the Queen's eyes. He felt extremely guilty when he thought of Song Junyan who was immediately carried to the Imperial Medical Bureau as soon as he entered the palace.

There was chaos when the incident happened, and she didn't have time to think about it.

When the night fell and everyone was asleep, she was at a loss as to what to do when she thought about how many ribs the other person had broken and how much suffering he had endured because of her.

[I don't know how Song Junyan is doing. Besides the rib injury, is there anything else? ]

[How can I repay this favor? ]

[He is a prince, and I am an unloved country girl.]

The more she thought about it, the more worried she became, and when she heard the Queen Mother and the Empress express their concern, she felt even more uneasy.

[Alas, I have no way to repay his life-saving grace. How about, how about secretly asking him if he wants to be the emperor? Then I can use the Tongzi to help him? ]

[This has made the Queen so worried. How can I help her? She is already the Queen...]
