Chapter 425
Lu Heng was speechless, but afraid that Wang Yanqing would bump into him, he quickly took Lu Xuan from her hand and asked the maid to help Wang Yanqing get out of the car.
Lu Xuan left his mother's soft embrace. He was not used to it. After muttering a few words, he fell asleep on Lu Heng's shoulder. Lu Heng looked down at Lu Xuan in his arm, thinking to himself, how old can he be to coax his wife to be eccentric.
Although Lu Heng said to let Lu Xuan go by himself, he was reluctant to wake him up, and held Lu Xuan safely all the way back to the backyard. Lu Heng put Lu Xuan back on the bed, took off his shoes, and pulled on the quilt. Wang Yanqing looked anxious from the side, wishing she could come by herself: "Be gentle, and be careful to wake him up."
Lu Heng sighed in his heart as he looked at his hands that had clearly been relaxed.
After Lu Xun was settled, the couple went back to the room. They changed into light home clothes and sat by the window talking. Wang Yanqing asked: "Many people have come to ask Xian'er today, and the imperial concubine is especially eager. What does the emperor mean?"
Lu Heng said: "Someone in the court mentioned the establishment of the crown prince. I think the emperor should have moved the prince's mind. According to the current situation, the emperor should like the second prince."
Wang Yanqing frowned: "Could it be that Xun'er should be the second prince's companion?"
However, Lu Heng immediately shook his head: "No. The emperor ordered Xia Wenjin to teach the second prince. The second prince already has a first assistant teacher, and he must not have another Lu family's companion. Jin Yiwei's allegiance is to the emperor, if he gets too close to the prince , I'm afraid it will arouse the emperor's suspicion."
Lu Xuan's name was drawn up by the emperor, and the word "Xuan" is very interesting. What did the emperor mean by naming Lu Heng's son such a name?
Lu Heng's words were similar to Wang Yanqing's thoughts. She said, "I also don't think I should get too close to the second prince. Queen Fang has no son, no direct descendant, and the second prince has the advantage of etiquette. I don't know how many people are busy. To please Concubine Wang. Concubine Wang is wearing flowers and cooking oil with fire, and her attitude is getting more and more arrogant. When she came to talk to me today, her words were very sincere, but I carefully observed her expression, but I could not see much sincerity. I guessed it right, she wanted to win over the Lu family, but she felt that it was a favor, and we would definitely not reject the Crown Prince's solicitation. Even if we turn to her, I'm afraid she won't appreciate us. "
Lu Heng thought that Wang Yanqing's ability was really cheating. Others analyzed a lot of factors based on various factors, but Wang Yanqing got the answer directly by looking at the other party's face. Lu Heng took the back of Wang Yanqing's hand and said sincerely, "Madam, I have a good wife like Qingqing by my side. I don't know how many disasters I have avoided. It is my life's blessing to be able to marry you."
"Don't come." Wang Yanqing gave Lu Heng a smile. Her eyes were bright, looking forward to her appearance, but she blushed as easily as before, and her demeanor was like a girl.
Lu Heng smiled and let her blame, but in his heart he thought he was telling the truth. Today, Lu Heng still collects information according to his own logic and judges good luck, but before making the final decision, he is accustomed to taking Wang Yanqing to see the key people and asking her to take the last step for him.
In the end, everything in the world depends on people. Even if all logic points to a possibility, once the people behind them change their minds, the final result will be completely different. Let Wang Yanqing judge the expression. If the situation changes, he can also prepare in advance.
Wang Yanqing said that Concubine Wang was arrogant, and the second prince was completely blocked. Wang Guifei felt that it was right for Lu Heng to help them, so how could the second prince she raised treat the Lu family well in the future?
Without any hesitation, Lu Heng said, "Then I will tell the emperor tomorrow that the age difference between Lu Xun and the second prince is too big, which may drag down the second prince's studies. Lu Xun and the third prince are still playing together today, so I will let Lu Xun and the third prince play together. Let’s read it to the Third Prince as a companion.”
Wang Yanqing expected that Lu Heng would reject the prince, but he chose the third prince. Wang Yanqing was surprised and asked, "Why the third prince? Attitude, among the three sons, he alone has the least concern for the third prince. Even if he wants to avoid suspicion with the East Palace, the third prince is not very special, why choose him?"
"Because Concubine Du Kang's mother and son are not favored, that's why this is even more necessary." Lu Heng said, "The emperor doesn't like Concubine Du Kang's character, and even the third prince is not favored. I asked Lu Xuan to be the third prince's companion. The emperor will believe that the Lu family really has no intention of mixing with Li Chu."
Wang Yanqing made sense when he heard it. The emperor was weak in the early years, but recently he has become more and more stable, and he rarely gets sick all year round. It is less said that the prince's enthronement will be twenty years later. Before that, everyone had to rely on the emperor.
The Lu family started out with great rituals, and Lu Heng's most important power today is still Jinyiwei, and their foundation is the emperor after all.
Wang Yanqing was relieved that the companion reading matter was finalized. In the past two years, because of Lu Xuan's incident, she has been pressing a stone in her heart, and she can't relax completely no matter what she does. In the future, she can give up and have no regrets. They can only go to the dark on the road of the third prince.
Seeing that the shadows between Wang Yanqing's eyebrows finally dissipated, Lu Heng felt guilty, hugged her and said, "It's my fault that you have been worried for the past two years."
Wang Yanqing leaned on his broad and firm shoulders and patted his arm with a smile: "I'm worried about my own family, right?"
