Chapter 251 The hanging heart finally died
Zhang Shui'er went back in a daze. As shy and expectant as she was when she mentioned marriage before, she felt as depressed now.
Lu Xinran also felt a little sorry for her friend. If she had read Cui Shenglin's booklet carefully before and noticed the abnormality in the Bo Mansion from the clues, she would have reminded Zhang Shuier earlier.
The scandalous events in the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's mansion reached the palace. When the emperor listened to the report from his subordinates, his face became completely gloomy.
He had just come up with the idea of promoting the Cui family a few days ago, so how come the Cui family's scandal was exposed by such a coincidence?
This is the kind of scandal that disregards propriety, righteousness, and integrity, and will make people all over the world feel disgusted!
He had a gloomy face, and always felt that the coincidence of this matter seemed to be man-made.
"Go and find out why the people from the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion showed up at the Tang family that day. Also find out why the Lu family showed up as well."
If it was really a coincidence, it would be fine. But if someone deliberately designed it, then he would have to take a good look at who was so bold as to even take him, the emperor, into account.
Cui Nianting, the Earl of Loyalty and Bravery, was too embarrassed to even attend the morning court these days. Knowing that he would be laughed at, he still claimed to be sick and hid in his house, refusing to go out.
The mess in their house has been going on for a long time. He has been trying to find a solution and has also mentioned the idea of dividing the family in a tactful way. But that time, he was punished by his father as soon as he opened his mouth.
We cannot divide the family, and every inch of land in the capital is worth a lot of money.
The Bo Mansion was surrounded by officials' residences, and there was no way to buy the neighboring mansions for expansion. He could not find any other way and could only turn a blind eye.
He has been worried ever since he discovered that Lu Xinran had the ability to find out other people's secrets.
I was very afraid that my family's privacy would be discovered, and now, I am finally worried.
From now on, their Loyal and Brave Marquis’ Mansion will become a joke in the capital.
He started coughing sadly again. The family cannot be divided. It cannot be divided. Why can’t it be divided?
By separating out those concubines' branches that are full of scandals, the younger generations from the legitimate branches will also have a spacious place to live.
As for those guys, he turned a blind eye. What did it have to do with him whether they were dead or alive after they were separated!
The more Cui Nianting thought about it, the more he felt like there was a fire burning in his heart.
He wants to divide the family, he must divide the family!
This time, no matter what method he uses, he will kick those guys out!
"Master, His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei has sent you a letter."
"King of Wei?"
Cui Nianting's cough paused slightly because of this sentence. He took the post and looked at the words on it, full of suspicion.
The King of Wei has never cared about state affairs and has always focused his attention on Shuntian Prefecture. Why would he suddenly want to see him?
Yes, do you want to laugh at his joke in person?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, he shook his head in self-mockery.
He has his fiancée Lu Xinran with him, so there is nothing he can't do. Why would he need to come and laugh at her in person?
"Prepare the carriage and go write back to the King of Wei. I'll be there soon."
In Qingfeng Tower, Song Junyan sat at the table. The tea in the tea bowl in front of him was clear. He picked up the tea bowl and took a sip slowly, then looked out the window to see the time.
"Master, Earl Zhongyong said he will be here soon."
"Ah."
I knew he wouldn't miss coming.
Song Junyan was satisfied in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
"When you bring him up later, avoid outsiders. I don't want anyone to know that I saw him today."
"Yes."
Ding San took the order and left. Half an hour later, Cui Nianting appeared in the private room with a haggard face.
"Your humble servant greets His Royal Highness the King of Wei."
"No need to be polite, please take a seat, sir."
Raising his hand to indicate the position in front of him, Song Junyan picked up the teapot and poured tea in front of Cui Nianting.
"Does Uncle want to divide the family?"
Cui Nianting's pupils suddenly shrank, "What do you mean, Your Majesty?"
"Of course it means literally. Do you want to split up?"
Song Junyan poured himself a bowl of tea and took a sip: "Master, there is no need to rush to reply. Just go back and think about it slowly."
The century-old Earl's Mansion collapsed in just one night. How could he go back and think slowly?
Cui Nianting looked at his expression and had some guesses in his mind.
But the situation is stronger than him, and he now has no extra choice.
He closed his eyes and said, "Please, Your Majesty, help me."
In the private room next door, Lu Xinran frowned as he compared the booklets of Cui Nianting and Song Junyan.
"Tongzi, why is it that the content displayed in Song Junyan's booklet is almost wrong?"
Even the conversation between the two people at this time seemed particularly strange, which was a bit outrageous.
The system wanted to point its finger in grievance, "I'm still waiting for the main brain to give me a reply. Maybe, maybe it's because he and Lu Xinlan are the male and female protagonists of the original book."
Since they are the male and female protagonists, they may be protected by this world, so their booklets will always have some flaws.
"But their current development trajectory is completely different from the original book. Will this have an impact?"
After Lu Xinlan arrived at the border, it seemed as if her nature had been liberated. She was no longer the noble lady and stayed in the military camp every day, unwilling to leave.
Not only does Song Junyan not look like a perverted yandere at all, he is also overly solemn and rigid. His actions and words are very methodical. How can he be like the person described in the books?
The system continued to hum quietly, "Don't worry, I have already contacted the main brain. Once the main brain finds the reason, it will tell me..."
As it was talking, there was a sudden sound of electricity. Lu Xinran rubbed his temple uncomfortably, and then shouted uncertainly, "Tongzi?"
"I'm in the host. Please wait a moment. The main brain has replied to me. I need to update the program. Please give me an hour."
The system fell silent after it finished speaking. Lu Xinran was concerned about the system's situation and did not stay in the teahouse any longer.
He sent someone to deliver a message to Song Junyan and then went back to Lu Mansion.
The one hour given by the system was obviously not accurate enough, so she waited until night before she was able to reconnect with the system amid a burst of electric sound.
"Host, I have updated it and I know what went wrong!"
An excited voice appeared in his mind, and Lu Xinran felt inexplicably relieved.
What she was most worried about at this moment was not the situation of Song Junyan and Lu Xinlan as the male and female protagonists of the original book, but that she was afraid that she would not be able to contact the system in the future.
Accustomed to the system's noise and the golden finger that could read gossip at any time, she couldn't imagine how boring this unchanging life would be if she lost this ability in the future.
"Host, um, um, let me tell you something, please don't be angry."
The system hesitated, causing Lu Xinran's heart to jump inexplicably. "What's the matter?"
"That's right, didn't I tell you before that this is a world of a book? Actually, I was wrong."
The system didn't know how to interpret it, it wanted to scratch its hair but he only had a bunch of codes to touch.
"Okay, I'll listen to your excuses. Just remember to be thorough."
