Reborn to raise a baby, Princess Heng has become stronger

Chapter 45 You only have eyes for Lu Youlin

Is Meng Yunshang timid?

Who was it that overturned the table and drew the sword to chop people in Kunning Palace five years ago?

Do you really think she can just fool around just because she's old?

At this time, Lu Chenxiao said, "Lu Youlin has been at home these days reading The Art of War. When he finishes school tomorrow, he will go to the palace and recite it to his mother."

The Queen Mother was immediately distracted, "Huaian can even recite The Art of War?"

"Well, Shang'er taught me well."

The Queen Mother paused.

I remember that although Meng Yunshang was from the Meng family, she grew up with General Cheng.

Compared to Meng Yunchuan who came from a poor family, the general's family is a family of generals for generations. It is normal for the granddaughter who was personally taught by General Cheng to be familiar with "The Art of War".

But surprisingly, she had the patience to read "The Art of War" with Huai'an.

Thinking of her sensible and lovely grandson since childhood, the empress dowager's face showed a little more tolerance.

She told Meng Yunshang, "If you don't want to enter the palace, then don't enter. It would be better to spend more time with Huai'an."

Meng Yunshang was in a good posture, her expression neither humble nor arrogant but distant.

The Queen Mother sighed deeply, held the hand of the nanny and left Fengyi Palace.

As soon as she left, Empress Chen took Emperor Yuan Qing's hand and pleaded for herself and the Chen family.

"Your Majesty, Nuo'er is still a child. He has no ill will towards Huai'an. Those are just jokes between children."

"I, your concubine, have no other intentions in summoning your sister-in-law to the palace, except that..."

"Just what?" Emperor Yuan Qing interrupted her with a laugh.

"It's just that I haven't seen my sister-in-law for a long time, so I wanted to catch up with her."

"Whether it's to reminisce about the past or to vent the anger of the Chen family father and son, you know it very well."

Emperor Yuan Qing sneered, "But after so many years, your stubborn character has not changed at all. If you had sent one more person to inquire about what happened at the entrance of the school, you wouldn't have put yourself in such a passive position."

"I was wrong, but I didn't mean to target my sister-in-law. Your Majesty, can you forgive me this time? I will never dare to do it again."

"You are so daring," Emperor Yuan Qing asked sarcastically, "Do you really think I don't know about the little tricks you and the Chen family have been playing?"

"I know nothing," Empress Chen denied stubbornly, "If it was my father and brother who did something that displeased the emperor, I would advise them to mend their ways. Please give them another chance."

"It's too late," Emperor Yuan Qing ran out of patience.

"From today on, you will stay in Fengyi Palace to reflect on your mistakes, and the affairs of the six palaces will be handed over to Consort Xian."

"No!" Queen Chen could not accept being punished while letting Concubine Xian benefit.

In panic, she tried to grab Emperor Yuan Qing's sleeve to beg for mercy, but was ruthlessly pushed away.

In a hurry, she kneeled down in front of Lu Chenxiao without caring about her image, "Chenxiao, the emperor's sister-in-law has taken good care of you over the years, can you help the emperor's sister-in-law to beg for mercy?"

Lu Chenxiao sneered coldly, "Your care is to let the Chen family father and son kill my son?"

"I..." Queen Chen was speechless after being questioned.

I watched Emperor Yuan Qing walk out of Fengyi Palace. Behind him, Meng Yunshang was held by Lu Chenxiao like a baby.

Although there is a considerable distance between the three of them, they still seem to be a whole.

And she is an outsider who can never get in.

*

Emperor Yuan Qing quickly asked Eunuch Shun to go to Chen's house to announce the decree:

"Chen Kun allowed his son to commit murder in the street. His crime is unforgivable. He is dismissed from his post as editor of the Imperial Academy. Chen Nuo has a bad moral character and is not allowed to attend the academy from today onwards."

After hearing this, Mrs. Chen fainted on the spot.

Tutor Chen received the imperial edict with trepidation and locked himself in the study.

Meng Yunshang didn't know all this. She and Lu Chenxiao got on the palace's carriage as soon as they left the palace.

The carriage left the palace. After Meng Yunshang confirmed the time with Danqiu, she discussed with Lu Chenxiao, "The palace and the academy are in different directions. If we go back to the palace first and then to the academy, we won't have enough time. Why don't we go directly to the academy and pick up Huai'an and go back to the palace together?"

Lu Chenxiao disagreed, "My back hurts, I have to go back home to get medicine first, I'll ask the housekeeper to pick him up later."

Meng Yunshang spoke in a cold tone, "The prince just said it himself that it doesn't hurt."

Lu Chenxiao snorted, "Just now, it was just now. Now my back hurts."

"Then let Lu Ming drive the carriage to take the prince back to the mansion to get medicine, and I will ride to the school to pick up my son."

Meng Yunshang said as she was about to get up and walk out.

Lu Chenxiao grabbed her wrist, pulled her into his arms, and held her tightly without letting go.

He still said with disdain, "Lu Ming is so clumsy, how can he give good medicine?"

Lu Ming, who was innocently implicated outside the car, pretended to be dead silently to reduce his presence.

Lu Kang, who was prepared for a rainy day, was even more resolute. He quickly rode his horse away to ensure that there was no horse around the carriage that could be driven.

Meng Yunshang didn't take his advice and calmly stated, "I promised An An this morning that I would pick him up after school."

"What about this king? You just don't care?"

Meng Yunshang: “?”

Should he listen to what he is saying?

He is twenty-four years old, not the four-year-old Huai'an.

How can she manage it!

Meng Yunshang frowned and tried to pry open his hands that were wrapped around her slender waist, but she couldn't change it at all despite her best efforts.

Finally, I could only grit my teeth and say, "Your Highness, either go back to the palace by yourself, or come with me to pick up Huai'an. If you deliberately make trouble, I will not cooperate with you."

Lu Chenxiao muttered with a straight face, "You only have eyes for that brat Lu Youlin!"

"He is my son."

"Then I am still your man!"

Meng Yunshang had a headache. This man was becoming more and more shameless, not at all like before.

She was really speechless.

But he still went a step further and demanded, "My back hurts, and I feel dizzy. I need to lean on the ground to rest for a while."

After saying this, regardless of Meng Yunshang's dark face, he pressed his whole face into the crook of her neck, and clasped his hands even tighter, making it impossible to push her away no matter what.

Meng Yunshang resisted the urge to punch him in the head and asked through gritted teeth, "Does your back really hurt that much?"

A certain prince who had been hanging his head suddenly regained his health, "Shang'er, are you concerned about me?"

Meng Yunshang: “…”

She shouldn't talk too much.

"I am very happy today because Shang'er is willing to stand by me and take the initiative to care about me."

"Your Highness, you're overthinking. You and I are husband and wife, so we should share the good and bad fortune together. We can't let those who bully us look down on us."

Hearing the deep meaning in her words, Lu Chenxiao curled his lips and sneered silently, "Everything that rises must fall. The Chen family should stop doing this."

The Chen family has a long tradition of scholarship, and their ancestors have produced several imperial tutors, who are known as the best of the world's elite.

After Chen entered the palace, the Chen family's glory reached a new peak. Since then, the Chen family's behavior has gradually become more arrogant, and they have completely lost the restraint and background of scholars.

More and more people in the court are following the lead of Chen Taifu and his son Chen Kun, and the Chen family is showing signs of becoming the top family.

The emperor had long been dissatisfied with the Chen family's behavior.

This time, Chen Nuo and his son were committing suicide, which just gave him the opportunity to punish them.

"Don't worry, the emperor won't let the Chen family go just like that."

Meng Yunshang did not breathe a sigh of relief. Instead, after thinking for a moment, she reminded Lu Chenxiao meaningfully.

"A few days ago at the Meng Mansion's birthday banquet, someone mentioned that the emperor's uncle Chen Kun had taken in a concubine named Yuan. Not only did he dote on her, he also often allowed her to host banquets in his mansion."

Lu Chenxiao asked pointedly, "Is there something wrong with the Yuan family?"

He did not care about trivial matters such as whether an official took a wife or a concubine in his mansion, but according to the Yuan Dynasty's custom, concubines were not eligible to host banquets in the mansion.

Not to mention that the Chen family prides themselves on passing down etiquette from generation to generation, so it is impossible for them to do something that goes against their ancestors, unless they have other intentions.
