Chapter 244 Ask It Yourself
The grandfather and grandson sat down again. The servant outside knocked on the door for some unknown reason and brought in some food.
Lu Xinran looked at him with a half-smile. He had been hungry for so long just to wait for her.
Lu Jinchuan looked sullenly at the waiter who took out a bowl of noodle soup from the food box and placed it in front of him. His stomach growled again and again, but he was too lazy to act like a grandfather anymore and just picked up his chopsticks and started slurping.
While he was eating, Lu Xinran was not idle either.
The grandfather and grandson were not on the same page, and she finally had time to see why Lu Jinchuan had come to find her.
[It turns out that I want to know what Song Junyan is thinking. 】
[If he wants to know what Song Junyan is planning to ask me, why not just ask Song Junyan himself?]
[He wants to take sides, but is afraid of the risks, and is reluctant to follow the dragon. He is really the ultimate example of being ugly but having beautiful dreams. ]
As Lu Jinchuan was slurping noodles, a mouthful of soup went directly into his trachea, causing him to cough heart-wrenchingly.
There is no one in the world who is not greedy, he is just an ordinary person.
And if Song Junyan fails in her bid for the throne, does she think she will have a good ending?
No matter how much she disliked her grandfather, the Shangshu Mansion was her strength, and his position as Shangshu was also a help to Song Junyan!
Lu Xinran rubbed his chin, wondering whether he should subtly reveal Song Junyan's thoughts.
But thinking about the fact that my grandfather had always been a fence-sitter, when a war broke out on the border and the military situation was urgent, he was still thinking about playing both sides.
If she told him what Song Junyan was thinking, it might ruin his good fortune.
Thinking of this, she immediately made up her mind.
[What about the throne? These are things that men need to consider and they have nothing to do with me. I don't want to worry about them.]
Lu Jinchuan: “…”
How could their Lu family raise such a stubborn person who is such a headache!
If Song Junyan could become the crown prince, she could become the crown princess.
If she can sit on the throne, she can become the queen.
Which woman in this world doesn't want the supreme position!
This damn girl just wants to piss him off, right?
After eating a bowl of noodle soup, Lu Jinchuan felt so choked up that he called the servant to take away the bowl of soup. Only then did he start to choose his words.
“Whether you approve of this family or not, you cannot deny the help it will bring to you.
"If you want to secure your position as the Princess of Wei, and if the King of Wei wants to gain a firm foothold in the court, you also need the help of your grandfather.
"Aristocratic families prosper together and suffer together. You should understand this simple truth."
Lu Xinran nodded in support. The other person was trying hard to sound sincere and serious, so she couldn't remain silent.
"So I never said a bad word about the government to anyone."
Lu Jinchuan: “…”
You said a lot in your heart!
He has already become a laughing stock among his colleagues, what else can he do!
"So, Grandfather is asking you seriously, does the King of Wei have the ambition to seize the throne?"
Lu Xinran shook his head seriously: "I don't know. If he doesn't tell me about this, I won't ask. If Grandfather wants to know, just ask directly. With the character of King Wei, if Grandfather treats him sincerely, he will naturally return his sincerity."
If you just want to play both sides, then don't pretend to be sincere.
A soft rejection was thrown back at him, and Lu Jinchuan frowned and pursed his lips.
Knowing that he couldn't get any words out of her, and that his inner voice was always intermittent and he couldn't make out anything, he decided not to waste any more time.
He waved his hand to signal the other party that he could go back, and Lu Xinran immediately stood up and turned away.
The plastic family relationship was fully displayed between the two of them at this moment.
Lying on the comfortable big bed, Lu Xinran recalled Lu Jinchuan's words and actions just now, silently wondering what he was thinking.
Song Junyan covets the throne, so he will definitely try to win over the court officials.
Although she was disgusted by Lu Jinchuan in that matter, it could not be denied that he still had considerable influence in the court.
If he could stand by Song Junyan sincerely, he would definitely give him a lot of help.
Thinking of this, she turned over and sat up, wanting to write a letter, but she was afraid that the letter would be stolen by someone with ulterior motives, causing trouble.
As he hesitated, he gradually became confused.
Forget it, I'd better find an opportunity to meet him. It's safer to talk about this kind of thing in person.
Without Lu Xinlan by her side, she felt less inclined to leave the house.
Since she didn't leave the house, Zhang Shui'er had no place to find her, so she could only send a letter to come to Lu's house to look for her.
After coming out of Pei's courtyard, the little sister returned to her room, and Zhang Shui'er sighed with melancholy for a moment.
"Lu Er, Cui Wu still told his family that he wanted to go to the border."
"Oh?"
Lu Xinran was not surprised. "Does your grandfather know?"
"I know. After we separated last time, I went back to the mansion and asked my grandfather. My grandfather thought that his idea was great and was optimistic about him."
"Isn't that great? You won't be getting married until next year, and he won't have anything to do in the capital this year. He might as well go to Hanyu Pass to earn some military merit."
With his skills and character, one year is enough for him to find an opportunity to earn military merit.
"But," Zhang Shui'er couldn't tell whether she was worried or what, she just felt very nervous: "On the battlefield, there are no eyes, what if, what if something goes wrong?"
"You have to have faith in him. Besides, wealth and honor are achieved through risk. If you want fame and success, you have to fight for it."
Having seen so many lives and deaths at the border, Lu Xinran didn't know how to comfort her.
Moreover, the Zhang family is a family of military generals, and the Zhang family members understand the meaning of this better.
In her opinion, Zhang Shuier was just too concerned and confused.
Zhang Shui'er left with a worried heart. She came to find Lu Xinran just to find someone to talk to.
It has already become a reality, she cannot stop it and has no right to stop it.
When Pei learned that Cui Shenglin was going to the border, she couldn't help but sigh: "This child is ambitious."
It’s a pity that the girl he likes is not Lu Xinlan, otherwise the two of them would be a great match together.
One is straightforward and optimistic, the other is calm and composed, what a perfect match they are.
"Grandma," seeing Pei's sigh, Lu Xinran immediately remembered what Lu Jinchuan asked her to do that day: "Does Madam Tang really like my sister and want to propose marriage for Mr. Tang?"
"Yes."
Speaking of this, Pei became excited: "Mrs. Tang found someone to come to the mansion to propose marriage some time ago, but your mother..."
Speaking of Zhao, Pei felt overwhelmed.
"Your mother rejected the idea outright and told Madam Tang not to dream on this."
Lu Xinran: “…”
Zhao is crazy!
Who gave her the courage and confidence to say this about Liu?
"Grandmother, Zhao has such a bad temper, don't you really want to find a way to control her?"
If Zhao continues to go crazy, she will offend all the governments in the capital.
Pei rubbed her brows and said, "How can she not be restrained? I scolded her in public after the guests left, and even made her pick up Buddha beans in the yard for a month."
She thought that after this month, she would be able to figure out many things, but it turned out that she took things for granted.
Fortunately, Liu knew Zhao's character and personality, so she didn't take it too seriously.
Just knowing that he couldn't get through them, Tang Quyan spoke directly to Lu Jinchuan.
