Mingxi came to the study to look for Lu Shiming, but he didn't see him all night. Lu Shiming looked very tired, as if he had aged a lot, but he was in a good mood.
"I was planning to send someone to find you, so you have already come." Lu Shiming said, looking at Mingxi with a smile.
"Grandfather, are you okay?" Mingxi asked.
Lu Shiming smiled and said, "It's okay, I went to the palace yesterday and saw the emperor, and I have already told the emperor everything."
He went to the palace to plead guilty last night, and told the emperor everything he had done to help Lu Shizhou. If the emperor wanted to punish him, he would have nothing to say. However, Murong Ke got him up after hearing this, because he knew that he had helped Lu Shizhou a long time ago, and knew that he was deceived without knowing it.
However, in order to show notarization, Murong Ke still punished Lu Shiming and made him think behind closed doors for a month.
"...Think about your mistakes behind closed doors?" Ming Xi raised his eyebrows, the sixth uncle's punishment is appropriate.
Lu Shiming smiled bitterly, "This is already the emperor's generosity."
"One month will pass quickly." Mingxi said with a smile.
"One more thing..." Lu Shiming frowned, "When I was in the palace yesterday, an urgent message came from the wilderness, saying that Beiming Kingdom has declared war on us."
Surprise flashed across Ming Xi's handsome and pretty face, "Qian Danqing has declared war?"
"It is said that we captured their prince and asked us to hand over Beitang Xuanyang." Lu Shiming said.
"Did uncle arrest Beitang Xuanyang?" Mingxi asked.
Lu Shiming took a deep breath, "No, Beitang Xuanyang is not in our hands."
That is to say, Beitang Xuanyang disappeared, and Qian Danqing thought that Ye Chunnan had arrested him, so he wanted to start a war with Jin Guo and hand them over Beitang Xuanyang.
"Qian Danqing even cared about the life of the emperor for the prince of Beiming Kingdom." Ming Xi smiled, "It seems that Qian Danqing really wants to change the emperor."
"Didn't you meet assassins on the road before? Who wanted to kill Beitang Yu?" Lu Shiming asked.
Mingxi said, "It's Qian Danqing."
Lu Shiming snorted coldly, "That's it, maybe this time it's an excuse made by Qian Danqing deliberately."
With Qian Danqing wishing to kill Bei Tangyu, it is really possible that the war between the two countries was his scheme, but there seems to be something wrong.
"With uncle around, Qian Danqing will not succeed easily." Ming Xi said.
Lu Shiming felt at ease when he thought of Ye Chunnan's battlefield experience.
"The emperor asked about your parents last night." Lu Shiming pondered for a moment, "Did your mother send you a letter?"
"Not yet, my mother said before that she would go back to the capital city." Ming Xi said.
Lu Shiming looked at Mingxi without knowing how to speak.
"Grandfather, what's the matter?" Mingxi asked suspiciously.
"There are many rumors nowadays..." Lu Shiming said in a low voice, "I wonder if you have heard of it."
Ming Xi has only been back for less than two days, and he really hasn't heard any rumors, "No, I haven't heard anything yet."
Lu Shiming coughed softly, "It's like this. Now the harem is full. Although the emperor has not yet established a queen, there are already many concubines in the harem. The rumors... are all related to this. If you hear it, don't take it to heart, you Parents and the others should also understand, and won't misunderstand..."
Has something to do with the palace
"Grandfather, is this rumor related to Mingyu?" Mingxi asked.
"It's just that some people think that after the emperor has his own child, he won't love Mingyu as much as he does now..." Lu Shiming said.
Ming Xi laughed when he heard the words, "So it's about this, let others say what they say."
Lu Shiming didn't expect Mingxi to answer like this, "It's best for you to think clearly, don't care what others say, rumors are rumors, and some rumors are to sow discord."
"Grandfather, I understand." Ming Xi said with a smile.
…
…
Lei Bingfu was in a very bad mood. After Mingyu followed Mingxi out of the palace yesterday, Murong Ke took some wrong medicine and came to the Imperial Garden. Will leave, how do you know to go to her palace to eat.
She felt that she would not be able to eat for at least a few days.
"Your Majesty, the weather is fine today, do you want to take a walk in the Imperial Garden?" Ding Xiang came in and asked.
Lei Bingfu glanced outside lazily. She really wanted to go, but she didn't want to meet Murong Ke there again. Although she didn't know him very well, she understood what kind of person he was.
Just like he was in Jianjia Palace yesterday, in the eyes of others, it was her doting and her great honor to dine in Jianjia Palace. However, only she knew best in her heart that Murong Ke didn't come here to give her doting, he Just to make her sick.
He must be suspicious of her, that's why he came to monitor her.
"I won't go, I feel lazy today, just sit in the courtyard." Lei Bingfu said.
Even if you don't meet Murong Ke when you go to the Royal Garden, you will definitely meet other people.
Liu Jieyu and the others all thought that she had won Murong Ke's favor again, if she hadn't made excuses to push her back, they would all have come to Jianjia Palace to find out.
"Niang Niang, the emperor finally came to eat with us, don't you... you should think of a way to win the emperor's heart?" Ding Xiang rubbed Lei Bingfu's shoulders, sometimes she really felt that their master was too lazy.
Lei Bingfu chuckled, "If the emperor's heart is really with me, do I need to hold it?"
"Then you don't do anything?" Ding Xiang asked suspiciously, a little puzzled that Lei Bingfu didn't seem to care much about whether the emperor came to Jianjia Palace or not.
"I've done a lot." Lei Bingfu said lazily.
Ding Xiang was a little speechless, she really didn't know what this empress did.
At this time, a little maid came in to report, and Eunuch Ford asked to see him.
Lei Bingfu frowned, why did Ford come here
"Please come in, Eunuch Fu." Lei Bingfu said flatly.
Ford walked in with a smile, "I've seen Concubine Hui."
"Eunuch Fu is polite." Lei Bingfu was no longer as lazy as before, sitting dignifiedly and peacefully on the teacher's chair, looking at Fude with a smile.
"Empress Hui, the emperor ordered you to have a meal in the Hall of Mental Cultivation." Fude said with a smile.
Lei Bingfu's expression changed, "What?"
Ding Xiang next to her was overjoyed, "Niang Niang..."
"Eunuch Fu, the emperor takes care of everything every day, so I don't seem to be suitable for it in the past." Lei Bingfu's expression was stiff, and he didn't want to go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation at all.
"Your Majesty is worrying too much. The Emperor invited you to go. Who dares to say that it is not suitable." Ford said with a smile.
Lei Bingfu clenched her fists, "Then please wait for a while, Mr. Fu, I will tidy up a little."
"Yes, ma'am." Ford bowed his head and bowed, and went outside to wait.
"Ding Xiang, comb Ben Gong's hair." Lei Bingfu said through gritted teeth.
What does Murong Ke want to do again!
