Voice of the heart: Those who are eaten by the real daughter are in bad luck

This question was so sudden that the queen was stunned and couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.

"Mother, this... that girl has many prejudices against the Fourth Brother. If I really point her to the Fourth Brother..."

She would definitely think that they were repaying kindness with enmity, and would keep complaining about them in her heart.

Besides, that girl looked very lively and had more ideas in her mind than anyone else.

If she were really allowed to marry the fourth brother, she might... run away from the marriage.

When the Queen Mother thought of Lu Xinran's messy thoughts, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

She just thought that the girl was good in every way and was a good match for the Fourth Brother, forgetting that the Fourth Brother had such a messy image in her mind.

If that girl knew that she wanted to bring her together with the fourth child... she couldn't imagine what she would hear from her heart.

Thinking of the girl's outspoken words, the two looked at each other and felt a little scared.

Outside the palace, the emperor, who was separated from the two of them by a door curtain, overheard their entire conversation.

The queen thought it was inappropriate, but he thought this arrangement was perfect!

If he wanted to raise Gu, he would naturally arrange wives and relatives with real power for several princes.

As expected, his heir is among these adult princes. The eldest has been deposed, and there are five of them left.

He wanted to see if the fourth brother, who had never been competitive, would show any ambition to seize the throne if he had a Shangshu to support him.

Eunuch Fu stood behind him. Seeing that he just stood in front of the door and refused to let anyone in or come in, the strange feeling in his heart became more and more obvious.

The master has become more and more strange in the past six months and is less and less like the master he used to be.

Back in the Wenhua Hall, the emperor held the memorial in his hand and was thinking about which of his sons could go on his behalf to the prayer ceremony this year.

Originally, he wanted his third son to go on his behalf during the winter solstice ceremony, but later he was persuaded by court officials and went in person.

The court officials should have no objection to letting the prince attend the prayer ceremony in the first month of the year.

Should the third child go or the fourth child go?

When he began to hesitate, he already had the answer in his heart.

Didn't the fourth brother have this thought? Then he can be a whetstone for the brothers.

Thinking of this, the emperor was in a good mood and opened the memorial. Seeing that there was an article impeaching An Hongsheng, he wrote on it with a red pen, saying that this kind of person should be kicked out of the capital along with the Qiu family.

Lu Xinran has been waiting for news from Shuntian Prefecture these days. The dismemberment case had such a bad impact, and her participation in the case played a significant role. Once the case is closed, her health value will definitely soar.

"Tongzi, when my health points are sufficient, can you use them to make me a golden bell iron vest?"

She still remembered what the system said the last time something happened.

It can transform life value into a protective shield to keep her safe.

The system hummed, and after a while it reluctantly said, "Of course you can, but activating it once will consume at least one year of life value, and once you use it, it's gone! Don't waste it unless it's absolutely necessary!"

"Do you need so much?"

Lu Xinran was shocked. Although she didn't remember whether she had a full year when the accident happened, her life value was very low at that time.

She had worked hard for nearly half a year to save up for more than three years, and now it would all be burned by opening a turtle shell?!

"Well, it's not always this much. It's activated for the first time. If you use it again, one or two months of life will be enough."

That's pretty much it!

At least one year at a time, it would be better to let the whole thing break into little stars.

Sensing her thoughts, the system was a little dissatisfied, but still shrank back obediently.

Anyway, it is up to it to judge the specific situation, and it will act like Grandet unless it has no other choice.

Yiren Yitong waited anxiously for the case to be closed, but she still did not receive the news of Sun Qihang being sentenced until the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month when the emperor put down his pen and all officials began to prepare for the New Year at home.

She asked Cuizhu to go to the streets to inquire, and what she heard was that the Sun family had been secretly destroying evidence, making it impossible for Song Junyan to close the case before the New Year.

How can the Sun family be so bold and presumptuous? Do they really think there is no etiquette or law in this world?

"Sister, do you think the things the Sun family did won't reach the emperor's ears?"

Why is Song Junyan so useless? As a prince and the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, how can he let the Sun family members jump over his head?

"Countless things happen every day in this world. If the emperor had to make a decision on every single one of them, he wouldn't be able to handle them all even if he had three heads and six arms."

Moreover, these things may not necessarily be done by the Sun family. Maybe someone is using the Sun family’s name to prevent him from closing the case quickly.

As Lu Xinran listened to her analysis, her beautiful brows were about to be knotted.

"What good will this do to those people?"

"There may not be any direct benefit, but if a case that is already extremely clear cannot be closed, how will the Fourth Prince's ability be regarded in the eyes of the Emperor and the court officials?"

“It’s going to be bad.”

Lu Xinran answered subconsciously and instantly understood everything.

These people... are garbage!!!

Anyone who prevents her from gaining life points is not a good person!

The fight for succession is truly everywhere.

"Sister," she pursed her lips, stole a few glances at the other person, then smiled awkwardly and whispered, "What do you say? It's not fair to the victims that this case has been dragging on for so long, don't you think?"

Lu Xinlan smiled at her cautious look and wanted to tease her, but when he thought of the system on her body, he gave up the idea.

"Okay, after the New Year, we will find a way to help the Fourth Prince close the case, and we will also help to bring justice."

"Yes, justice!"

This is a good explanation!

Lu Xinran giggled, feeling that they could use these four words as a cover whenever they went to help in the future.

"You must stay with me and grandma at the New Year's Eve party on the first day of the first lunar month. Don't walk around alone."

"Don't worry, I understand!"

She would never go to a deserted place. It would be the New Year's Eve party, and all the court officials and their families would enter the palace. How could she give up such a great opportunity to eat melons!

Lu Xinlan was still a little worried when listening to her thoughts. What does this girl know?

Her sieve-like voice had brought about countless hatred, and there were countless people in the capital who wanted to kill her.

New Year’s Eve, in Zhaoyun Courtyard.

Pei's room was as lively as usual.

Lu Jinchuan stood outside the yard with his two sons, listening to the faint laughter coming from the room. He suddenly felt that the trivial things that he had taken for granted before now seemed extremely rare.

"Father, why didn't my fourth brother come back this year?"

Lu Kangde, who had no idea why the two concubines fell out of favor from the beginning to the end, stabbed Lu Jinchuan in the heart as soon as he opened his mouth.

Lu Jinchuan lowered his brows and tilted his head to glance at his eldest son indifferently. He didn't know whether he was asking unintentionally because he didn't know the inside story, or was deliberately trying to embarrass him.

He replied coldly: "It's cold and the road is long, so it's better not to go back."

That bastard who was brought from somewhere should never think of returning to the capital in his lifetime!
