The legitimate daughter brings disaster to the concubine! Seize the imperial power and the throne

As soon as General Wen gave in, Lu Jingning immediately stated that he would not pursue the matter of Wen Chen's arson and injuring people. The white beard at the corners of Clan Leader Wen's mouth trembled slightly, and he couldn't help but look up at the girl in front of him.

Although he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, he was as calm as a man who had lived for decades. His words and actions seemed to be concessions, but in fact they forced the other party to retreat.

There is only one way out for the Wen family.

It was obvious that Lu Jingning was taking advantage of the situation to win over the Wen family, but he still wanted the Wen family to be grateful to him.

As to whether Wen Chen was responsible for the fire last night, it is still uncertain.

Patriarch Wen sighed, this girl is not simple!

After leaving the *** Mansion, Patriarch Wen looked at General Wen and asked, "What do you think about this?"

General Wen was furious: "I was wrong. I thought Brother Chen was young and promising, but it was a pity that he married the princess. Now it seems that he is a pile of mud that can't be helped. He almost implicated the Wen family."

Patriarch Wen shook his head: "I'm asking you, my Lord."

Lu Jingning?

He hesitated. He was just thinking about how to solve this matter and reduce the loss of reputation to the Wen family. He calmed down and thought about it, then said, "She is just a girl who has been raised in the boudoir. She has a little intelligence, but it's a pity that she is a girl."

If Lu Jingning were a man and the only legitimate son of the prince, his potential would be limitless!

Girls will eventually get married, and now that she has no one to rely on, she wants to win over the Wen family, but she is just trying to please the young prince.

But the Wen clan leader didn't think so, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go to the Wen Mansion."

……

"Madam, the master will be safe and sound." The maid advised.

Madam Wen sat on a chair and sobbed, her eyes almost swollen from crying: "Why is Brother Chen so depressed? Why did he set a fire for no reason? And he was so careless that he got caught."

She has never been at peace since she moved out of the princess's mansion.

As they were talking, the clan leader's voice was heard outside. Old Madam Wen thought she had misheard and rubbed her ears. After a while, she saw the clan leader and General Wen walking towards her one after another.

Madam Wen looked a little embarrassed.

It’s true that good things don’t go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.

The news spread to the tribe members so quickly.

Madam Wen's lineage is the second branch of the Wen family's great ancestor. After the family was divided, Wen Chen was considered to be a promising youngster. He married a princess and inherited the Wen family's ancestral home.

The other members of the Wen family moved to other places. Every year, the Wen family only needed to offer 10,000 taels of silver to the Wen clan members, and they only interacted with each other during the holidays.

When she first saw the clan leader, Madam Wen couldn't even straighten her back. She stood up guiltily and asked, "What brought the clan leader here?"

Seeing her red eyes, Chief Wen didn't bother pretending anymore and asked directly, "We already know a lot of things, there's no need to hide them. Where is Wen Chen?"

Hearing this, Madam Wen sat down angrily and said, "Zhang County Magistrate came early in the morning to take the man away, and there has been no news since then."

"County Magistrate Zhang?" Clan leader Wen frowned.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Chen came back and saw the two people in the room. He was also stunned for a moment, and then he bowed to the Wen clan leader and others: "Clan leader, great uncle."

General Wen snorted coldly, expressing his dissatisfaction. "I haven't seen you for a few years, but you are getting bolder and bolder. You even dare to be mean to the princess, who is the legitimate princess!"

Wen Chen looked a little embarrassed.

At first, Wen Chen did not dare to be indifferent to Princess Qinghe, but as time went on, he found that Princess Qinghe was a soft persimmon. Over time, he became bolder and things evolved into what they are today.

Wen Chen knelt on the ground: "Uncle, calm down. I know I am wrong."

Seeing that he admitted his fault with a good attitude, General Wen didn't say anything more. Besides, the two families had already divorced. He kept a straight face and said nothing. The head of the Wen clan stared at Wen Chen's face and asked, "Did you have anything to do with the arson yesterday?"

"Chief, I swear to God, I had nothing to do with yesterday's arson." Wen Chen raised three fingers with a frank expression.

"Clan leader, this may be a misunderstanding." Old Madam Wen also spoke up.

The head of the Wen clan waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter whether it is true or not. The Wen family has already fallen into the hands of the big boss. If the other party wants to investigate, the Wen family can only apologize."

Madam Wen and Wen Chen looked at each other, nervousness in their eyes.

"Fortunately, the eldest lady doesn't care about this." The Wen clan leader looked solemn and stared at Wen Chen: "If you return to Beijing one day, remember, you must not offend the eldest lady."

"Return to Beijing?" Wen Chen frowned. He had not thought about returning to Beijing yet, and the emperor had not issued any decree. Why would he return to Beijing for no reason?

Patriarch Wen did not explain. He slowly stood up, put his hands behind his waist, and walked away. Seeing this, General Wen followed closely behind him.

The matter seemed to have been easily covered.

Who would have thought that a few days later an imperial decree would be issued, summoning all members of the Wen family to come to the capital.

Lu Jingning also found Lu Lin's adoptive mother, who was actually a secret guard named Liuli. She was nominally Lu Lin's biological mother, had a clean family background, and had raised Lu Lin for seven years.

Before returning to Beijing, Lu Jingning deliberately made his carriage available, laid a thick cushion on it, and let Yun Ge'er lie down comfortably.

Princess Qinghe didn't ask anything and stayed by Yunger's side every day. After being nursed by Imperial Doctor Zhong, Yunger's health has improved a lot and his soft laughter can be heard occasionally.

A smile appeared on Lu Jingning's lips.

This child is really pitiful.

"My dear, the Wen family is also on the way." Xue Yuan said.

Lu Jingning nodded. The imperial edict had been issued, so how could the Wen family dare to delay?

Seeing Xue Yuan hesitate to speak, Lu Jingning became curious: "What happened?"

"It's the Wen family. Aunt Xian has been clamoring to be promoted to the wife's wife, but Madam Wen refused. Aunt Xian fainted in anger and was found to be two months pregnant."

She and Aunt Xian had no grudges against each other, but when she looked at Aunt Xian, she always thought of the scene in her previous life when Lu Jinglang hooked up with Zhao Sui and bullied her.

So I instinctively didn't want to see Aunt Xian living a good life.

"A concubine wants to be promoted to the main wife?" Lu Jingning sneered. He was just dreaming!

She would never allow to see the second son occupying the position of the eldest son.

Lu Jingning quickly came up with an idea.

After a long journey of more than ten days, they finally arrived in the capital. On the day of returning to Beijing, Fengqi Palace sent people to guard the palace gate early.

"I pay my respects to the Queen. The Queen heard that the Queen is coming back today, so she specially prepared some top-quality cloud mist. Please go over and have a taste."

Lu Jingning smiled slightly: "Please tell the Queen Mother, Auntie. I want to go back to see my mother first, and then visit the Queen Mother after lunch."

The aunt who delivered the message smiled immediately upon hearing it: "Okay."

The carriage behind them lifted the curtain, and Princess Qinghe came down holding Yun Ge'er. Seeing this, the aunt rushed forward and caught the two of them, her eyes red.

Seeing this, Lu Jingning lowered his eyes and smiled, then walked towards the East Palace.
