Chapter 310: End of fate
Chapter 310 End of destiny
As he spoke, Lu Dingning looked at Lu Dingkun's face. Seeing that there was no anger on his face, he boldly continued: "Brother, what about that? See if you can help me mention it in front of Zi Qin, so that I can hide it in Prince Qin's Mansion. If you can’t hold a position like a long history, then a staff member can.”
Lu Dingkun replied: "Why am I the one to tell you? It's not like you don't know Ziqin. You are Ziqin's second uncle. If you open the door, can Ziqin not give you the face?"
Lu Dingning smiled awkwardly and said, "It's always bad to talk about this kind of thing yourself. It would be better if someone else relays it."
Lü Dingkun asked: "Have you never mentioned it to King Qin?"
Lu Dingning shook his head and said, "It's not like I haven't mentioned it before. The day before yesterday, I had a banquet at the King of Qin's palace. I hinted it to the King of Qin. Because the occasion was wrong, I didn't say it clearly."
Lu Dingkun asked: "Why should you go to Prince Qin's Mansion? Wouldn't it be more appropriate for you to go to Prince Xian's Mansion? You are King Xian's uncle. If you want to find something to do, can King Xian take care of you?"
Lu Dingning patted the folding fan and said with some embarrassment: "What about that? It's because there are no suitable positions in Prince Xian's Mansion right now and it's hard to make arrangements."
"No position? What does it matter if there are one or two more staff in a royal palace? Isn't it because the wise king doesn't want you to go there?"
Being pointed out by Lu Dingkun, Lu Dingning felt a little unable to step down, "No, it's because of my relationship with Prince Xian's uncle. I don't think it's good to go to Prince Xian's house to do things, so I want to avoid suspicion."
Lu Dingkun asked: "The Prince of Qin's Mansion doesn't want to avoid suspicion? Also, have you discussed this idea with your father? Does your father agree with what you do?"
"What's the objection? I'm looking for a job based on my ability. What can my father say?" Lu Dingning opened and closed the folding fan in his hand as he spoke.
Lu Dingkun was dazzled by what he saw. He reached out and grabbed the folding fan from his hand, closed it and put it aside. Said: "When you speak, pay attention."
Lu Dingning looked at the folding fan on the bench and said nothing. He clasped his hands in front of him and asked, "Brother, what do you think? You can help me tell Ziqin and ask me to go to the Prince of Qin's Mansion to get a job. Okay?"
I really don’t want to live idle every day. It’s very uncomfortable to go out and be looked down upon by others. "
Lu Dingkun said: "I can't help you with this matter. First of all, you have to ask for your father's approval for this matter. You also said that you have been the minister of the Ministry of War for several years, and you should have some things figured out.
Secondly, I don’t have that face in front of King Qin. "
Lv Dingning became anxious when he saw that Lu Dingkun rejected him.
“Brother, you really don’t need to talk to your father about this matter.
Furthermore, Ziqin was once your son. As an old man, how could he not give you face when you ask? "
Seeing that Lu Dingning's Muyu couldn't make sense, Lu Dingkun didn't want to continue with him. He stood up and said, "I still have something to do, so I'll leave first. You go to discuss this matter with your father first. Your father has agreed for you to go to Prince Qin's Mansion to do something. You can come back to find out later." I."
Lu Dingning stood up and asked, "Seriously? As long as my father nods, will you tell Ziqin for me?"
Lu Dingkun nodded, "Yes, as long as father agrees, I will tell Ziqin. Of course, I don't know whether Ziqin needs you or not."
Lu Dingning happily responded, "Okay, thank you brother. I'll go find my father right away."
Lv Dingkun ignored him and walked away.
On the other side, Ye Mingqin stood at the gate of Duke Chengguo's mansion. When he saw the British Duke getting off the carriage, he immediately went up to greet him, bowed his hands and said, "Hello, Lord Duke."
The British Duke looked at Ye Mingqin and asked, "Where are your adults? Not at home?"
Ye Mingqin leaned forward and said: "Master, my aunt is in a bad mood when I return home. My grandmother and mother accompanied my aunt to go out to relax. My father has not yet gone to office, and my brother is currently working in the Prince of Qin's Mansion, and he is in the Prince of Qin's Mansion during the day."
The British Duke was stunned for a moment, looked at Ye Mingqin carefully, then looked up at the door of Duke Chengguo's mansion, and asked, "Where did your grandmother and the others accompany your aunt to relax?"
Ye Mingqin shook his head and said: "My lord, I'm sorry, I don't know.
When my mother left, she said that there must be a lot of people looking for my aunt in the past two days. If she told her where she was, she would definitely not be in peace, so she told no one.
He only said that they would go away for a few days and come back a few days later. Therefore, I don’t know where they went. "
After hearing this, the British public's face turned blue and white for a while.
Ye Mingqin leaned forward and said, "My lord, please come in and have a cup of tea. In a while, my father will be leaving for office."
The British Duke waved his hand and said, "No, I still have something to do. I'll come back another day."
Ye Mingqin made a sound, bowed his hands and said: "Master, please go slowly."
The British public servant got into the car and Du Bin drove away.
The British Duke asked: "Do you think Mr. Ye really went out?"
Du Bin shook his head and said, "I don't know."
In Du Bin's opinion, it was probably because the eldest lady didn't want to see anyone, and Duke Chengguo's suggestion to stay away was just rhetoric.
With the Duke’s shrewdness, it is impossible for him not to know.
The British duke sighed and said, "She has endured it for so many years, why is she still trying to reconcile now?"
Du Bin did not answer. In the past, the eldest lady had a sixth master. For the sake of the sixth master, the eldest lady had to endure everything.
Now, the eldest lady is alone in the house, without worries, and has a harmonious relationship with her natal family, and she has the King of Qin as her backer. What else do you need to endure?
The British father leaned against the carriage and said nothing. After driving for a while, the British Duke said: "Go to Prince Xian's Mansion."
Du Bin agreed, turned his horse's head and headed towards Prince Xian's Mansion.
When the British Duke's entourage arrived at Prince Xian's mansion in advance to report the matter, Prince Xian was planning to go to the Duke's mansion. When he heard that Duke British was coming through the mansion, Prince Xian simply waited for Duke British at the door.
The British Duke got off the carriage and saw the wise king standing at the door. He couldn't help but be startled and asked: "Your Majesty, are you going out?"
The wise king said: "I was originally going to the British Duke's residence, but I didn't expect the Duke to come over. What happened?"
The British duke let out a long sigh, raised his hand and pointed inside.
The wise king understood and politely allowed the British Duke to go to the palace, and the two of them went to the study.
The British Duke sighed and said, "Yes, Mr. Ye wants to make peace with Dingkun. I wanted to go to Chengguo Duke's Mansion to persuade Mr. Ye, but I didn't know that Ms. Ye avoided seeing me."
The wise king looked at the British Duke in disbelief, "Auntie wants to reconcile with uncle?"
The British Duke nodded, "Yes, I don't know what Mr. Ye thinks."
The Xian Wang held his chin with his hand and thought deeply. After a long time, he said: "It is not a bad thing for us that my aunt and uncle have reconciled."
The British Duke raised his head and looked at the wise king and said: "At this time, if Ding Kunruo and the Ye family are reconciled, in the eyes of outsiders, the prince and the King of Qin have broken up, which is very detrimental to the prince."
The wise king said: "But in this way, my uncle's heart will not be biased towards King Qin, but will return to our side."
The British Duke shook his head and said, "Not necessarily. If the Ye family and the King of Qin make trouble in front of Dingkun, not only will Dingkun not be biased towards the prince, he is afraid that he will hate the Yang family and vent his anger on the prince."
The wise king frowned, looked at the British duke and asked: "Spreading trouble? What is right and wrong?"
The British Duke said: "The things Yang did before were not worthy of publicity."
The wise king thought of his grandmother who was holding her back and asked, "Does my uncle know what my grandmother did?"
The British Duke nodded, "You should already know from the tone of Dingkun's words."
The wise king thought for a moment and said, "I heard that my uncle has brought back his concubine and a son and a daughter?"
"Yes, Wang is the daughter of Wang Yichun, the magistrate of Qixian County. Zilan and Zixi are twins."
The wise king asked: "How does my uncle treat the Wang family?"
"They have just returned to the house today, and they still can't tell whether the relationship between Dingkun and the Wang family is deep. Dingkun is really concerned about the children."
With that said, the British Duke told Lu Zixi about delivering food to Lu Dingkun.
"In the past, if Dingkun was unhappy, only the Ye family could enter his yard, and no one else could enter. Not even Ziqin. Zixi could bring food in, which shows that Zixi was in Dingkun's heart. portion size.”
The wise king said: "As long as my uncle has someone he cares about, we are not afraid that he will not listen to us."
The British Duke nodded, "This old man has also thought of it and has already ordered Du Bin to send someone to Zi Xi Zi Lan to serve them."
The wise king said: "The Duke is thoughtful. However, just taking care of the Wang family and their children is not enough.
We need to think about two more steps. If the uncle and the Ye family reconcile, the position of the British Crown Prince's wife will be vacant. Should the uncle support the Wang family or marry another person? Has the Duke asked his uncle? "
The British Duke’s eyes lit up, “The prince is still thinking too far, I only think about the things at hand and have forgotten about it.
The Wang family does not have enough status to be the wife of the Crown Prince of the British Duke. Dingkun had to marry someone else. "
The wise king was satisfied with the British duke’s answer and said: “My mother-in-law is relatively familiar with the ladies from the aristocratic families in the capital.
If my uncle marries another man, he must ask his mother and concubine to help him look after her.
It’s just that the Duke of the State must comfort my grandmother and not let her cause trouble again. "
At the mention of Yang's name, the British man felt a headache and pressed his temples.
Seeing the British Duke’s sad expression, the wise king asked, “Grandpa is very worried?”
The British Duke said helplessly: "Your Majesty knows that Yang's temperament is too stubborn."
The wise king looked at the British Duke with a hint of evil in his eyes, "Grandpa, grandma is not in good health, so don't let her worry about the affairs of the house anymore. Grandma has worried about the house all her life, so she should be allowed to take good care of herself in her old age. That’s it.”
The British Duke said in embarrassment: "But Mr. Yang is not willing to live in Zhuangzi."
The wise king said: "My lord, you are the head of the family in the British government. Shouldn't you have the final say in the affairs of the government?"
The British public was undecided.
The wise king continued: "My grandfather often reminds me that we must be decisive in doing things!"
The British Duke nodded and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will handle this matter."
The wise king stood up and said, "I will not go to the house today.
I, the king, will go to the palace first to talk to my mother and concubine about my uncle, so that my mother and concubine can get started first. If my uncle gets divorced, he will try to remarry the crown prince's wife into the palace before the end of the year. "
The British Duke then stood up and said, "Well, thank you, Your Majesty. I'm going back to my house first."
The wise king nodded, "Let's go, I will see the Duke off."
The next day, after the morning court, the King of Qin caught up with Zhang Qingyun, the Minister of Punishment.
Zhang Shangshu bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
King Qin bowed his hands and returned the courtesy and said: "Mr. Zhang has made a serious statement. I am now the consul of the Ministry of Punishment and must abide by the rules of the Ministry of Punishment. I came to see Mr. Zhang because I want to ask Mr. Zhang for a leave of absence."
Zhang Shangshu smiled and said: "The emperor has told me that while the prince is in the Ministry of Punishment, I will cooperate with the prince. Therefore, if the prince has something to do, just go and do it. There is no need to ask for leave."
The Minister of the Qin Dynasty, Zhang Shangshu, cupped his hand and said, "I understand. Thank you very much, Mr. Zhang. I would like to take a step in advance."
King Qin left the palace gate, got on the carriage and said to Ruxuan: "Let's go to Jingzhao Mansion."
Ruxuan drove to Jingzhao Mansion. On the way, Ruxuan asked: "Sir, do you think the prince will go to the Yamen today?"
King Qin said firmly: "He will go."
Ruxuan felt a little happy in his heart, "If Madam can reconcile smoothly and get out of the quagmire of the British government, it would be worth celebrating today."
King Qin also felt a bit of anticipation in his heart and said, "You will go to Chang'an Restaurant later and ask shopkeeper Miao to prepare ten tables and send them to Duke Chengguo's mansion. Let's have a good celebration today.
By the way, let someone inform Xiaoyu and ask her to come to Chengguo Duke’s Mansion and let’s have a good time together. "
Ruxuan nodded in agreement, "Okay, I understand."
King Qin rushed to Jingzhao Mansion and got out of the car just in time to see Lu Dingkun dismounting.
Lu Dingkun handed the reins to the young man and walked towards King Qin. After seeing the courtesy, he asked: "Your Majesty, is there really no room for redemption?"
Lu Dingkun of the Qin Dynasty shook his head and said, "My aunt has made up her mind, and she hopes that the prince will fulfill her wish."
Lu Dingkun raised his hand slightly and said, "Your Majesty, please."
The King of Qin nodded, "Okay, Your Majesty, please."
Lu Dingkun stood where he was, turning around and looking around, hoping that a familiar figure would appear.
"Your Majesty, please!" King Qin saw that Lu Dingkun had not moved, so he turned around and urged.
Lu Dingkun turned around and said, "Your Majesty, can you wait a little longer? Wait another quarter of an hour."
King Qin didn't know why Lu Dingkun had to wait for a quarter of an hour, but he still nodded and said, "Okay! I'll go in first and wait for the prince inside."
Lv Dingkun leaned forward and said, "Thank you very much, Your Majesty."
King Qin glanced at Ruxuan, who nodded slightly. King Qin turned around and walked into the Yamen.
Lu Dingkun waited for a moment at the entrance of Jingzhao Mansion, and Qing Mo hurried over.
“Your Majesty, Qing Mo is here!” Qin Zhen said.
Lu Dingkun's eyes lit up and he quickly turned around to look over. When he saw that the only person coming was Qing Mo, the light in his eyes suddenly dimmed.
Qing Mo stepped forward and shook his head at Lu Dingkun, "Your Majesty, the people from Duke Chengguo's mansion said that my wife is not in the mansion."
“Not in the house? Where have you been? Do you know?”
Qing Mo nodded and said, "I don't know, the people in Chengguo Palace won't tell me."
Lu Dingkun sighed and walked towards the Yamen.
A quarter of an hour later, King Qin came out of the yamen first, followed by Lu Dingkun who looked lost.
When Ruxuan saw King Qin coming out, he immediately drove his chariot over.
The King of Qin turned around and cupped his hands towards Lu Dingkun and said, "Goodbye, Your Majesty the Prince!"
Lv Dingkun cupped his hands and said, "Goodbye!
King Qin turned around and got into the car, and ordered the guards: "Go to the British Duke's Mansion to inform Rumo, tell him that my aunt and the Crown Prince have reconciled, and ask him to take people to carry my aunt's things back to the Chengguo Duke's Mansion."
