Chapter 239: So Intelligent and Almost a Demon
Manager Cen did not expect Meng Qianqian to answer so simply.
"Young Madam, in your heart..."
Meng Qianqian understood what he wanted to ask. She didn't have an answer to this question herself.
Is Lu Yuan special to her?
Of course it is.
But why is it special?
He has all the power in the government. Even if he is still the former Marshal of Chu, I am afraid that he cannot be easily brought down. If he cannot be destroyed, then he will get it.
He was the one scheming against himself, but he actually saved his life. While he was scheming to go back, he also felt a little grateful.
There are too many entanglements between them, and the bond is too deep. If they keep cutting and they are still messed up, then they will be twisted into a rope.
"Steward Cen, I don't want my husband to know about today's conversation."
"Yes, young lady."
In the past, when Manager Cen faced Meng Qianqian, he was more like looking at a smart and clever junior, but now he really felt the aura of Meng Qianqian.
She has the same inviolable majesty as the Grand Governor.
No, maybe she had it all along, but she just never showed it in front of her.
After leaving the accounting room, Meng Qianqian sat alone in the pavilion for a while.
She is calming down her emotions.
Thinking of the inhuman torture Lu Yuan had suffered, Meng Qianqian's heart was filled with anger towards the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she wished she could even slap the Prime Minister's Mansion's dog twice.
Keren couldn't make any decisions while angry, she had to calm down.
"Meng Xiaojiu, I only give you three breaths."
After taking three deep breaths, Meng Qianqian's eyes returned to their usual calmness.
She began to think about what was coming next.
Yesterday, the emperor and the empress got married successfully. Lu Yuan fulfilled the conditions of the emperor. Jun Wu joked that the Chu family's case was about to be re-investigated.
If nothing else, the Ministry of Punishment will be responsible.
No, the Ministry of Punishment will definitely be responsible.
The reason is simple. Xing Shangshu is one of the few officials in the DPRK who holds real power and has a neutral attitude.
Xiangguo Xun's minions were almost all over the court, and he would not allow Shangshu Xing to slip through the net.
In the past, when he was away, Lu Yuan appeared to be a traitorous minister, but in fact, he secretly protected Xing Shangshu, Lin Jijiu, Wang Yushi and other ministers who never participated in court disputes.
This is the first road Lu Yuan paved for himself.
When the Supreme Emperor was under house arrest in the temple, every move he made was under Lu Yuan's surveillance, and even a letter could not be sent out.
But on the night when the old lady went to the temple to ask for the decree of righteousness between her and Lu Lingxiao, Lu Yuan gave Eunuch Fu a pass.
It makes sense that the traitor would not care about an imperial edict that had nothing to do with government affairs.
But how could the Great Emperor miss this great opportunity to contact his confidants?
On the surface, Duke Fu was tasked with announcing the decree, but secretly he secretly delivered the Emperor's oral edict.
That's why, when Lu Yuan went to the border to fight, a lot of his power was purged, and those officials were originally the minions of Prime Minister Xun.
Using the Emperor's hand to cut off one of Xun Xiangguo's hands was the second path Lu Yuan paved for himself.
The Supreme Emperor at that time probably didn't guess that the master behind Lu Yuan was Xiang Guo, or even if he guessed, he had to do so.
In this way, before Xun Xiangguo returned to the court, the confrontation between the Supreme Emperor and Xun Xiangguo had already begun.
This is the third road Lu Yuan has paved for himself.
In this way, it was a matter of course for Lu Yuan to change from the abandoned son used by the Prime Minister to establish his power to the boomerang used by the Supreme Emperor to attack the Prime Minister.
After Meng Qianqian had figured everything out, there were only four words left in her mind: She is so smart that she is almost a demon.
The last person who gave her this feeling was Chu Nan.
She was very curious, if Chu Nan met Lu Yuan, who would be better?
Naturally, Chu Nan is dead, and there will be no answer to this matter anyway.
What she wants to know more now is that a re-investigation is a foregone conclusion, and the Prime Minister's Office is bound to have something to do with the Chu family case.
How will the Prime Minister respond?
Kill Lu Yuan? Or kill Shangshu Xing?
With King Miao protecting Lu Yuan, he couldn't kill him.
There is more than one neutral official, Xing Shangshu. If he dies, the worst thing is to let someone else take over. This path is obviously not feasible.
"What are you thinking about?"
Lu Yuan's voice suddenly appeared above her head.
She gasped.
Was she so absorbed just now? He didn't even notice that Lu Yuan was coming.
Or is it that, in her heart, Lu Yuan is already someone who does not need to be vigilant and can approach her at any time?
"Just sit down."
"Have you gone to see Manager Cen?"
"I asked about your condition." "I am not sick."
Meng Qianqian: You can't live a day without talking harshly, right?
Lu Yuan said: "Be careful when you enter the palace today."
Meng Qianqian asked suspiciously: "Will something happen to me?"
Lu Yuan glanced at her: "I'm afraid that something will happen to others, so you just have to write 'I really want to kill' on your face.
Meng Qianqian cleared her throat: "Is it so obvious?"
Lu Yuan looked away: "But when you enter the palace today, you can really pay attention to one person."
"who?"
"Mrs. Chang Ning Bo." Lu Yuan said calmly, "Do you know why she attacked you at the palace banquet last night?"
Meng Qianqian shook her head.
Lu Yuan said meaningfully: "Uncle Changning's Mansion wants to marry the Prime Minister's Mansion. Who do you think the son-in-law is that Mrs. Changning wants to marry?"
"It can't be you, right? No, outsiders don't know about your relationship with the Prime Minister."

Meng Qianqian paused and her eyes trembled, "Chenlong? My brother?"

Tan'er didn't eat the braised pork from the palace yesterday, and there was no braised pork ingredients when she returned to the house. She was depressed all night, and today she insisted on going to the palace with Meng Qianqian to eat the braised pork that the emperor owed her.
Meng Qianqian smiled helplessly.
Tan'er pouted: "Sister, what are you laughing at?"
Meng Qianqian touched her head: "Tan'er, promise me that you will continue to be carefree like this."
Tan'er crossed her arms: "It depends on whether there is braised pork to eat!"
Banxia said angrily: "I just know how to eat!"
Tan'er made a face at her and stuck out her tongue: "Slightly!"
Banxia opened her mouth: "Don't care about the child!"
Tan'er: "It's obvious that Ni is not exaggerating!"
Banxia: "Who said I can't speak to you?"
Tan'er: "That's counterintuitive!"
Banxia: “Just say it!”
The two bickered all the time and didn't stop until they reached the palace.
After getting off the carriage, no matter how provocative Tan'er was, Banxia would never reply and stayed by Meng Qianqian's side cautiously.
Tan'er looked at the sky: "Well, you win."
The emperor's wedding was completed in Jiaofang Hall and the couple's ceremony was completed. Yao Qingluan then moved into Jingren Palace.
But last night the emperor and the empress's wine was robbed by Lu Yuan, and Meng Qianqian estimated that the couple's gift as husband and wife was not enough.
Zong Zhengxi did not consummate his marriage with Yao Qingluan last night.
Fifteen years old is not a big deal, but many children of aristocratic families and princes already understand the affairs of men and women at this age, but Zong Zhengxi is an exception.
He didn't understand.
The Supreme Concubine once gave him a personnel maid, but he would not let the maid touch it.
"Your Majesty, how did you sleep last night?"
Wang Dequan went to visit Zong Zhengxi early in the morning.
Zong Zhengxi frowned and said, "No, I'm used to sleeping by myself. I can't sleep with more than one person."
"ah…"
It seems that the marriage was not consummated.
Zong Zhengxi asked: "Can I sleep by myself tonight?"
Wang Dequan laughed dryly: "This... slave can't be the master."
Zong Zhengxi said resentfully: "Forget it, there's no point in asking you. I'm going to court."
Wang Dequan reminded: "Your Majesty, I will not go to court today."
Zong Zhengxi forgot about this incident: "Oh, then I will do my homework. I will be a diligent emperor."
Wang Dequan was stunned: "Don't you hate homework the most? Why did you suddenly—"
Zong Zhengxi was full of anger: "Why, why, of course it is to drive out all of you useless slaves!"
Wang Dequan: “…”

In Jingren Palace, Meng Qianqian saw Yao Qingluan sitting on the Luanfeng chair.
Although Yao Qingluan is the niece of the Supreme Concubine, their facial features are not similar. The Supreme Concubine should have more of the appearance of her biological mother.
Yao Qingluan is also a complete beauty.
However, her beauty is more like the wealth and wealth of the human world, while the Supreme Concubine is the cloud of the Immortal Palace.
Tan'er: Braised pork, braised pork, braised pork, can you eat braised pork?
