Chapter 311 Don’t You Think the Emperor Is Weird?
Song Junyu always felt that the emperor looked at him with some unfriendly eyes.
He lowered his head, not daring to look anyone in the eye.
He understood that his previous calculations had touched upon a taboo, which not only displeased the emperor, but also made the court officials quite critical of him.
The situation that was built up with great difficulty was completely ruined because of excessive arrogance.
He now wanted to slap his previous self in the face. Why did he have to provoke that guy Lu Xinran for no reason!
Where did he get the confidence that he could hide everything so that Lu Xinran wouldn't be able to find any trace?
Thinking about how he had repeatedly shown up in front of the other person... he closed his eyes, not wanting to admit that he had been fooled by himself.
Lu Xinran was still digging into the emperor's past. It would be a waste if he didn't read it. Who knew if he might find some useful clues.
The emperor was restless the whole night and wanted to end this boring family dinner as soon as possible, but the undisguised joy on the empress dowager's face made him unable to speak. He could only stare at the young couple with murderous eyes.
Lu Xinran kept her head down the whole time, and Song Junyan just pretended not to feel anything. He served her food from time to time, fearing that she would be hungry.
The couple cooperated with each other so well that the emperor could not vent his anger and could only turn around and glare at the queen.
The queen remained silent and ignored the emperor's anger.
So, that night, everyone was satisfied, and the world was achieved where only the emperor was injured.
When the family dinner was over, the emperor gave the young couple a harsh look and left in anger.
In the carriage, Lu Xinran covered her mouth with one hand and her stomach with the other, laughing so hard that tears almost fell.
Song Junyan looked at her lovingly, and when she stopped laughing, he pulled out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped away the tears from her eyes.
"Do you feel that there is something wrong with your father?"
Lu Xinran, who had been smiling, restrained his smile and suddenly became serious.
"Don't you think he's been...seeking death in the past few years?"
Now I am taking aphrodisiacs, and I take an overdose every time.
If this medicine is no longer effective in the future, what other means will he use?
Aren’t you going to start looking for a way to make an elixir?
Thinking of this possibility, she subconsciously grabbed Song Junyan's arm.
If that day really comes, it will be a sign of the country's demise.
Song Junyan's face was solemn. He shook his head slightly at her, indicating that they should go back home and discuss in detail.
Everyone left the palace together, and the carriages they took back home were not far from each other. If anything was leaked along the way, it would probably cause unnecessary trouble.
After returning to Prince Wei's Mansion, Lu Xinran took Song Junyan's hand and walked towards the main courtyard.
It was not until they had washed and dressed and sat cross-legged on the bed facing each other that she expressed her concerns.
"Don't you think your father has been acting strange these past few years? If this continues, none of you brothers will have to fight for the throne, and Da Chu will probably be gone."
Song Junyan sighed. Even if he felt something was wrong, what could he do? His father's thoughts were really hard to figure out.
He wanted to let the brothers fight each other, but was also afraid that they would form cliques for personal gain and that the imperial power would fall into the hands of others.
He often felt puzzled and didn't understand why he ended up in this situation.
"Forget it, your father... I'll take a look at his pamphlet first to see if he knows his identity."
Lu Xinran always felt that with his respect for the empress dowager, he should not know about this.
But the most taboo thing about this kind of thing is to bring in your own opinions. She fell on the bed, pulled up Gao Jin's quilt, and her consciousness went straight into the system.
Song Junyan looked at her silently for a moment, then lay down beside her.
[Why is the late emperor so strange? ]
Lu Xinran dragged the booklet directly to the time when the emperor was just born. Although he knew nothing at that time, the system would objectively record what he heard and saw.
The Empress Dowager was not originally important in the late emperor's heart. At least in terms of being heartless and disloyal, both father and son were extremely cold-hearted.
The late emperor's real special treatment of the empress dowager began when he moved the emperor to the empress dowager's side. He valued the emperor very much, so the empress dowager's status in the harem also gradually improved.
Other princes were educated by their teachers, but he was the only one who learned to read by sitting on the lap of the previous emperor.
Everyone could see that he valued the emperor, so although the emperor seemed to have encountered many twists and turns when competing for the position of crown prince later, everyone could see that he was the most preferred candidate by the previous emperor.
Even the empress was chosen for him by the late emperor. Even if he did not value the empress when he went to Yucheng Pass, the late emperor would have let him marry her.
"What do you think your royal grandfather is thinking?"
She was so cruel to the emperor's real mother that in order to replace her with the empress dowager, she executed all those who knew about the matter in the cold palace.
But he gave this son the most fatherly love he could give.
Song Junyan shook his head: "Maybe it's because he changed my father's fate, so he has a greater sense of accomplishment and pride that he is the only one who knows this secret."
This answer made Lu Xinran hum a word, and she continued to read without commenting.
The previous emperor's booklet is still in the system, so we can look at it together for reference.
"Your father...he seems to know his own life experience!"
Lu Xinran suddenly stood up: "He heard the conversation between the late emperor and Eunuch Fu's master."
"Well, it's not hard to guess, this is normal."
If it was really as she saw, and the late emperor always kept someone by his side, it would be normal for their conversations to be overheard.
"He knew his life story when he was seven years old, but he didn't know that Eunuch Fu also knew it."
Not long after the previous emperor passed away, he secretly dealt with all those who knew about the incident.
"Let me take another look at Eunuch Fu's pamphlet!"
Lu Xinran hurriedly opened Eunuch Fu's booklet and quickly turned to the part before the death of the previous emperor.
"His master told him this after the previous emperor passed away. He knew that it would be difficult for the emperor to survive given his character, so this news was also meant to help his apprentice save his life."
"Does anyone else know?"
Song Junyan asked directly, and Lu Xinran shook his head: "We need to take our time to look at this."
Eunuch Fu is already over fifty years old, and he has been with the emperor for almost thirty years.
It took such a long time to find out whether he had any private contact with outsiders, and I could only slowly read through his life bit by bit.
Song Junyan wanted to take a rest first, but when he thought about how he had spent his life points to save this booklet, he found it difficult to say words of concern.
I could only sigh gloomily: "If only I could help you look through it."
Lu Xinran fell back again. Going through the past was not a burden to her. It was just that the time pressure made her nervous.
"It's okay. After going all this way, I can still eat some melons. I can always make up for my health."
The gossip about the emperor and eunuch Fu should be worth at least two years, right?
By this calculation, it’s not a loss to spend your life points to survive.
