Chapter 1973 - 1973 Drunk
1973 Drunk
After uncle Gu finished his sentence, Lu Zheng glanced over at the table and their conversation stopped.
Even the Emperor was very interested in this question.
The country guarding Duke smiled,”why should I feel heartache?” Did Lord Cheng ‘en feel bad for ah Yu? Majesty Kang didn’t feel sorry for his son either! Since Luan ‘er can play with ah Yu since they were young, it means they’re the same. If ah Yu doesn’t care, Luan’ er definitely doesn’t care either.”
Everyone,”hehe.”
I didn’t expect you to be such a Duke defender.
Lu Zheng laughed at himself, but he was in a good mood and did not find anything wrong with the country guarding Duke’s words.
When he was young, he did not receive his father’s love. Now that he was so old, he did not ask for more.
For example, Xue qianxun had drunk the Crown Prince of King Kang. He was definitely loved by his parents when he was young, so why did he have to compare himself with others?
The Emperor poured himself a cup of wine. His throat was hurting from playing games. After drinking it, he asked, ” “Country guarding Duke, you said you wanted to submit a memorial to resign and hand everything over to Lu Zheng. He can do the things outside, but what about the things in the backyard?”
Uncle Gu interjected,”old Lu, your second wife is still fine!” Would your second wife be willing to let the crown prince’s wife take care of the matters in the inner residence?”
Uncle Gu was not the kind of person who would care about his face. He did not address the high Duke’s wife or Madam Lin. It was clear that his second wife did not even mention his wife.
“I believe my future daughter-in-law has the ability to make her willing,” said the defender Duke. We’re old now. Whether it’s external or internal, it’s only right to let the children take care of everything. Huang ‘er is the eldest brother, so his wife is the eldest sister-in-law. I believe that no one in the inner residence would dare to challenge their power.”
After a pause, the country guarding Duke sighed and then said sincerely, ” “Back then, my late father helped lie ‘er to be bestowed the title of Crown Prince. This is a tradition of our Lu family. Moreover, Huang ‘er was raised by my late father. Not only does he have the right, he also has the ability.”
“After the old Duke passed away, I don’t see you treating him like an heir!” The Emperor pursed his lips.
Uncle Gu agreed,”that’s right, he even sent her to his hometown in Yuzhou.” Was this the kind of treatment a Duke’s heir should have? Old Lu, you’re in the wrong. You should have drunk three glasses.”
The country guarding Duke didn’t argue. He silently poured himself wine and drank three cups in a row.
Lu Zheng listened to all of this without any expression on his face. He thought of the five years in the old house in Yuzhou.
Uncle Gu continued, ” old Lu, I’ve had too much to drink. I just want to know one thing. How did sister Xiaojia fail to make it? did that Lin have anything to do with it? ”
The country guarding Duke was stunned. He glanced at uncle Gu, and then there were tears in his eyes. He didn’t say anything and poured himself more wine.
Grandpa Gu wanted to remind uncle Gu not to cause any trouble during the new year, but he was stopped by Grandpa Zhou.
Seeing that he was not speaking, uncle Gu gave him a push. “Say it! How did my sister Xiaojia die? I couldn’t come to the capital to beat you up more than 20 years ago, but you’ve come to my door today. I won’t let you off!”
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little heavy.
The country guarding Duke didn’t answer uncle Gu. He still poured himself wine silently and drank it.
