Chapter 169 Don’t give up
After hearing this name, Lu Manyin actually became quiet.
She still feels uncomfortable thinking about what Shu Yunzhao said to her today.
"Father, how can an ungrateful person like her be so confident?"
Lu Jingzhi was speechless for a moment.
Although he had impeached Shu Yunzhao several times, to be fair, he knew that Shu Yunzhao had some real abilities.
"Man Yin, as a father, you should think more carefully about this marriage in the Su family..."
Lu Jingzhi's ability to get to where he is today must not rely on standing behind one person and unswervingly implementing it, but on sizing up the situation.
The Su family in front of them was obviously being crushed one end after another, like nails being hammered into the ground by Shu Yunzhao's hammer.
Lu Manyin was a little awkward: "Father, I think brother Su Yi is a good person. I don't want to marry anyone else except him..."
Lu Jingzhi sighed. He already knew what was on his daughter's mind.
He also thought that his daughter would be able to live a good life if she got married in the future, so he tried his best to cooperate with Su Wenshan's request.
The few times I was embarrassed before were all because of him.
"Man Yin, my father knows your thoughts, but you also have to think about the Lu family. My father manipulated you before and even risked the Lu family's face to help Su Hou. If I want to take advantage of your reputation, my father will I definitely won’t agree. You are my father’s daughter, no one can bully you.”
Lu Jingzhi's words moved Lu Manyin.
"Father, my daughter knows..."
After Xiao Luofan and Su Yunxiu left, Concubine Tian consciously told Prince An that she would be quietly grounded. Although there was no way to make up for the negative impact she had brought to Prince An's palace, she could only apologize.
On the same day, Princess Cui directly sent Aunt Tan and Aunt Li, who had no chance to raise their heads after being suppressed by Concubine Tian, to King An.
"The opportunity has been given to you, it's up to you whether you can seize it."
Ms. Cui had never thought about fighting for anything, but she unexpectedly got the position of princess.
She knew that Concubine Tian must hate her to the core, and she never thought that she would live in peace with Concubine Tian for the rest of her life.
Simply take advantage of Concubine Tian's confinement to cultivate other forces in the mansion.
"Thank you for the advice, Princess..." Aunt Tan is a sensible person. He was sent by one of King An's subordinates. He has been in the government for three years and is still young.
Aunt Li had been pregnant with a child for five years after she had been in the government for five years, but she accidentally aborted it.
Everyone knew in their hearts that this accident had something to do with Concubine Tian, but they just didn't want to offend anyone.
After all, Prince An didn't pursue the case, so who else could he expect to help Aunt Li make the decision?
In the past few years, Aunt Li has hardly left the house, and there are almost no rumors about this person in the palace.
When King An saw the two of them, his eyes lit up.
These two people were once new to him, and looking at them now, they added a bit of charm.
Especially Aunt Li, he remembered that Aunt Li had failed to conceive a child for him, and he felt a little guilty in his heart.
That night, he went to Aunt Li's yard.
Mrs. Cui was very kind-hearted and asked someone to bring the news to Concubine Tian, who was confined to the house, but she was not allowed to say anything.
The people responsible for guarding the courtyard were all personally selected by Cui.
After Concubine Tian got the news, she could no longer suppress her irritable mood because she was worried about Xiao Luofan and Su Yunxiu.
She couldn't be as kind and considerate as she usually was. Instead, she yelled at all the people serving her and told them to get away. Don't let such things happen to her in the future.
The waiters were a little stunned after not seeing Concubine Tian lose control like this for many years.
The servants were already implicated because of her grounding and were not in a good mood. Seeing her venting like this, they naturally had other thoughts.
Are such people really worthy of their loyalty?
It was Concubine Tian's mother who had experience. When she calmed down, she warned her with sincerity: "Your Majesty, this time we have underestimated the arrival of the eldest princess..."
How could Concubine Tian not understand that their prince was afraid of the eldest princess, and even the queen mother had to give in to the eldest princess.
"A eldest princess whose consort is dead will use the sacrifices of the past to blackmail her relatives all day long, and she still feels that she is quite cold and independent."
If her words were heard by the eldest princess, there would be no need to keep her mouth shut.
As expected, my mother warned: "Madam, the guards in our yard have been replaced now. We must also be careful whether there are others involved, and remember not to speak casually like this..."
Concubine Tian found it ridiculous. In the past, others were always on guard against her, but now that Prince An's palace has a princess, she has to be on guard against others.
"Ms. Cui is really capable. She knows that serving the prince at this time will make the prince think of some conspiracy, so she simply pulls out those two useless people..."
Concubine Tian's voice was full of sarcasm.
But the mother said: "My dear, the princess has never been a simple person. Otherwise, she would not have been able to survive in the palace for so many years and be able to send her son out at the most appropriate time. It happened that the eldest princess was the one who took her before her death. That team..."
Concubine Tian gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, I originally thought that she had violated the Queen Mother's taboo in this way, which was equivalent to giving up all competition with Xiao Changfeng in the house. I didn't expect that she was the most sober one. Maybe from that time, So I made up my mind to climb up to the eldest princess..."
The mother also followed her and said: "So, our loss this time was not unjust. Although the empress has taken care of the affairs of the house clearly over the years, she has never had any ideas about the eldest princess... This has indeed become a The key to today's success or failure... Fortunately, our bargaining chip to turn defeat into victory is always there."
Concubine Tian indeed calmed down, she was not a person who gave up.
Now that these things have happened, she naturally has to find a way to stand up.
"Mom, did you come up with any good ideas?"
Mom said very calmly: "Now the princess only relies on the newly appointed Minister of War and the eldest princess. As long as she can't connect with these two lines, all problems will naturally be solved..."
Hearing her words, Concubine Tian's eyes lit up: "What's the explanation?"
"At the Minister of War, Mr. Tian is here, and he will be hindered no matter what. After all, he is airborne, so many things should not go smoothly and he needs to adapt. However, Mr. Tian has been entrenched in the Ministry of War for many years, and the people below have already I decided that he should be the Minister of War, and it would be too easy to cause some trouble for Mr. Cui... As for the eldest princess, all I need to do is make her hate Xiao Changfeng..."
After Concubine Tian heard this, she couldn't help but feel that both methods were good.
"You're right. Now that we know who the problem is, we can just solve the problem directly..."
