Of course, now is not the time to tell Jiang Li's real plan to Lu Zhan.

In fact, this plan cannot be easily told to anyone, including Yang Jin.

Because she was too deviant, she could only use Qin Jue as a cover until the abilities she showed could conquer everyone's original idea of ​​male superiority and female inferiority.

Therefore, Jiang Li did not directly answer Lu Zhan's words, but asked, "So, you and the Lu family have really made a decision?"

"I advise you to think carefully and really make a decision. There will be no turning back in the future."

"If you were my opponent, I might still care about my old relationship and not kill them all."

"But if you surrender to me but betray me, the only thing waiting for you and the Lu family is to kill them all."

Jiang Li said these words very calmly, but also very seriously.

Lu Zhan's heart trembled. She didn't need to say anything more to hear her seriousness.

A good leader, in addition to knowing people and making good use of them, must also be ruthless enough when he should be ruthless.

He looked solemn, stood up and bowed to Jiang Li, "Lu Zhan is here today to surrender to the princess on behalf of the Lu family. I only hope that the princess will remember the Lu family's surrender today and treat the Lu family well in the future."

Lu Zhan was so solemn, and Jiang Li would naturally respond with solemnity.

"Okay, from now on the Lu family will listen to my orders, and I will do my best to ensure the prosperity of the Lu family."

At this point, Jiang Li finally completely brought Lu Zhan and the Lu family behind him under his control, and it was no longer just cooperation.

"Since you are mine, don't waste time today. Let's talk about what happened after I left Beijing..."

That night, Jiang Li managed to hold on to his energy and chatted with Lu Zhan until almost dawn.

After roughly talking about all the things that could be discussed in the future, she finally yawned and turned to bed with exhaustion.

"You can go to my study to sleep for a while, and then find a chance to leave by yourself."

"I'm so sleepy, I'm going to sleep first."

While talking, Jiang Li fell down on the bed and fell asleep, completely ignoring that Lu Zhan hadn't left yet.

Seeing her being so undefended, Lu Zhan was slightly embarrassed, but also a little happy.

In her heart, he was already someone she could trust completely.

Although they are destined to be inseparable in terms of love between men and women,...it is a blessing to be someone she trusts and to accompany her in this struggle for imperial power.

Jiang Li didn't sleep long before Lan Yin woke him up.

"Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. Princess, you have to go to Concubine Yao's palace to meet her and the emperor."

Usually it was the emperor and the queen, but now that the queen is gone, it can only be Concubine Yao.

Jiang Li was extremely reluctant, but he couldn't be absent at this moment. He could only get up with dark circles under his eyes, wash up listlessly, and then headed towards Concubine Yao's palace.

Today, all the princes and princesses are coming to pay their respects, so it should be very lively.

Jiang Li was the third to arrive. When she entered, Qin Xiang was serving Concubine Yao, acting like a caring daughter.

Concubine Yao only has one fourth prince and no daughter, so she seems to be very grateful for Qin Xiang's thoughtfulness.

Of course, only she knows whether it is really useful or fake. Anyway, she looks like a loving mother and a filial daughter.

In addition to her, there was also Liang Fei and the sixth prince Qin Mo.

Qin Mo is only ten years old this year and is still a child. Emperor Qing is holding him and talking, and the atmosphere is joyful.

Seeing Jiang Li come in, Concubine Yao and Emperor Qing also smiled and asked her to sit down.

After chatting casually for a few words, Qin Chu and the prince arrived together.

As soon as they arrived, the atmosphere obviously changed.

Emperor Qing originally teased Qin Mo with a smile on his face, but now the smile has obviously faded away.

The prince and Qin Chu were not stupid at all for such an obvious and deliberate indifference. Of course they could feel it, and they looked slightly uncomfortable, so they stopped asking for trouble and sat quietly aside.

Then Qin Chu didn't know whether he broke the jar out of embarrassment or because he was stimulated.

She sat quietly for a while, then suddenly said with a sneer, "How come Third Sister and Concubine Yao look so familiar to me in their filial piety as a mother and a daughter?"

As she said that, she looked at Jiang Li, "Why don't you go over? With you, it will really be the same as before. It will also make me think about things and people, right?"

Jiang Li: "..."

She felt that Qin Chu might really be a little crazy, otherwise he wouldn't have thought of bringing her along with Qin Xiang when he was so angry with her.

But she didn't pay attention, because she knew that there were many people who would fight back, and she was too lazy to leave.

Sure enough, Emperor Qing's face darkened in the next moment, he slapped the table and said angrily, "Qin Chu! Are you uncomfortable coming here on the first day of the Lunar New Year? Who can you show your yin and yang to?"

Qin Xiang, on the other hand, always lowered his eyebrows and was submissive. He even tried to persuade Emperor Qing at this moment, "Father, please calm down. A Chu is still young and can't speak clearly. You don't want to be like her."

Emperor Qing sneered, "She's still young? Ha, she already plots against men, so why is she still young?"

Many people knew that Qin Chu had plotted against Yuchi Yan, but no one would say it openly.

Emperor Qing suddenly said it so bluntly, which made everyone somewhat confused as to how to answer the question.

There was silence in the air, and the prince couldn't help but want to say something for Qin Chu, but Qin Chu pushed him back as soon as he moved.

She looked at Emperor Qing calmly and said, "Father, you shouldn't say these words to your daughter, right?"

"Of course, my father probably doesn't regard me as his daughter anymore."

"In that case, I won't bother you here. Qin Chu will leave."

Emperor Qing was filled with anger after what he said, and slammed the table, "How presumptuous!"

"It seems that I really pampered you too much and developed your lawless temper!"

"Kneel down outside for an hour and reflect on it!"

The prince really couldn't sit still anymore, "Father! It's still snowing outside. How can A Chu stand kneeling in this ice and snow for an hour?"

As a result, before Emperor Qing could speak, Qin Chu responded first, "You don't have to worry about my affairs!"

She glanced at the prince, then at Jiang Li and Qin Xiang, and sneered, "Anyway, you are all people who only have interests in your eyes. As soon as the mother died, you all forgot about her kindness and went your separate ways."

"Why do you need to pretend to care about me? I don't care!"

After saying that, Qin Chu turned around angrily, ignored anyone, and went to kneel outside.

Emperor Qing was even more angry now, but his anger was not directed at the prince anymore. He only scolded him, "It's your mother who has spoiled people like this. It's really a crime!"

The prince had a dull look on his face, "Achu...Achu was just excited for a moment..."

"Still speaking for her?" Emperor Qing glared at her and said, "See for yourself if she takes your brother seriously?"
