The uncle borrowed some merits, and the princess drew the talisman fiercely

As soon as Marquis Runan said this, the emperor's face turned darker.

Lu Ming felt something was not right.

He subconsciously opened his mouth to explain, "Your Majesty, it's not like that..."

He did not seek repayment for his kindness, nor did he let people like the Marquis of Runan protest on his behalf!

But just as he opened his mouth, he heard Prince Jin say casually, "No? Isn't Lu Anrong's sister dignified and elegant, and doesn't she have lofty ambitions and doesn't want to be a concubine? Could it be that she hopes to be a concubine?"

"No..." Of course Lu Ming could only shake his head!

Then he realized that no matter what he said, it seemed wrong!

Seeing cold sweat on his father's forehead, Lu Anrong bit his teeth, kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, my elder sister has known about this engagement since she was a child, and she has taken it very seriously. She has always constrained herself according to the requirements of a future prince's consort and has not made any mistakes. She hopes that she can really become the second prince's consort and not damage the reputation of the royal family..."

"It's already a loss. No one has forgotten what happened to your eldest sister when she copied the scriptures last time." Zhou Shiyue casually interjected.

"puff."

I don't know who couldn't help laughing out loud.

It was this burst of laughter that reminded people of the nickname that the wicked Beijing tabloid gave to Lu Zhaoyun at that time.

Everyone remembered it, after all, they had all read Beijing News.

If they didn't have some moral integrity, they would all be laughing right now.

Even Lu Ming himself felt his face burning, and he pulled Lu Anrong to stop him from continuing.

At this moment, he was somewhat resentful of Lu Zhaoyun. If she had not made such a shameful mistake, would they have been laughed at by the civil and military officials in the court?

It would have been great if An Rong could have refuted King Jin. But because of the stupid things Lu Zhaoyun did, they didn't know what to say.

The second prince's face also turned pale.

The Lu Zhaoyun incident was really...

The emperor had also read the Jing Wen. Originally, he thought that it was really immoral to pick on a girl, but now it was just the right time to make Lu Ming surrender.

"Ling'er is a grateful, sensible, and loyal child," the emperor said slowly, "I believe that no matter whether she is the principal wife or the concubine, he will be able to take good care of her and will not let your daughter suffer any grievances. Moreover, with a principal wife from an aristocratic family in the future, Lu Zhaoyun can consult her on everything, and we can live a good life with one heart and one mind."

The emperor paused, "If there is anything you don't understand about palace rules and etiquette, there is also someone who can advise your eldest daughter so that she won't make mistakes again. Isn't that good?"

Lu Ming's face became even more gloomy.

The emperor almost said directly that your Lu family is of such low status that your daughter doesn’t even know the palace rules and etiquette. She will not make a fool of herself again if there is someone watching her in the future.

Could he still refuse this?

The emperor looked at him and said, "Of course, I am not an unreasonable person. If the eldest daughter of the Lu family is arrogant, I can make the decision on this engagement and call it a day. I will issue an order not to let people in the world laugh at her for this matter. I will not let her lose face, and I will give her other rewards."

How is this possible?

If the engagement is really rejected, will Zhaoyun be able to marry someone higher than the Second Prince in the future?

Lu Ming panicked.

Zhou Shiyue glanced at him and chuckled, "Brother Emperor, I do have a way to make it up to Miss Lu."

"Oh?" Although the emperor always felt that Zhou Shiyue had some bad intentions, he couldn't help but want to listen to what he was talking about.

He felt that he might be seriously ill.

"If Lord Lu doesn't want Miss Lu to be his concubine, then why not find another match for her? If any of the lords here have a son of the right age, you can consider it. After all, everyone here is from a higher family than the Lu family, so in this way, Miss Lu can still be considered to be marrying off to a higher status."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the civil and military officials in the court were about to jump up and down.

The atmosphere at the scene was obviously tense.

Miss Pu Pu, their son is not that blessed! Declined!

Lin Rong glanced at Prince Jin, then looked around, taking in everyone's reactions. He truly felt that Prince Jin's move was too mean.

Who dares to take over Miss Lu now?

Even if she is really beautiful, gentle, talented, and well-educated, they can't do it!

Firstly, she had a history with the Second Prince, and secondly, the Lu family was indeed of low status.

Who dares to marry Lu Zhaoyun now?

What if the emperor or the second prince targets me?

They can't be the kind of fathers who betray their sons.

Worried that the Emperor would really listen to Prince Jin's suggestion, the civil and military officials, who had been watching the show in silence just now, suddenly started talking at once.

Someone advised Lu Ming, "Lord Lu, the Second Prince is not an ordinary person. A concubine of the Prince is much more noble than the wife of an ordinary family. How can she be called a concubine?"

"Yes, yes, and the emperor is kind and loving. Even if he chooses a principal wife for the second prince in the future, he will not completely ignore the concubine."

Someone quietly stepped on her, "I heard that Miss Lu is really devoted to the Second Prince. If Lord Lu breaks them up, Miss will be so sad."

Someone else mentioned the beauty list this time, "I heard that Miss Lu was on the beauty list of Jingwen this time. Her reputation is recognized by the whole capital. Our child is plain-looking and is really not worthy of being on the list."

He only dared to whisper these words to Lu Ming and his son; the Emperor couldn't hear them clearly from where he was sitting.

If Lu Ming has the guts, just say it.

Does he dare to mention the beauty list at this time?

Lu Ming and Lu Anrong were both dizzy.

The emperor asked impatiently, "Okay, I'm tired! Lord Lu, tell me, is this going to work or not?"

Prince Jin: "That's right, you're so nagging. Isn't my brother tired?"

After saying that, he gave the emperor a look that said, "Brother, I'm with you."

emperor:"......"

Lu Ming shouted in confusion: "I will leave it entirely to the emperor!"

The emperor immediately clapped his hands and said, "Okay! Then it's settled! Lu Zhaoyun is promised to be the second prince's concubine. After the mourning period, she will marry into the palace with the principal wife on a chosen day."

The eunuch also sang at the right time: "Retreat!"

"Congratulations to the emperor."

Only after the bright yellow figure left did Lu Ming and Lu Anrong's minds become a little clearer.

The father and son looked at each other and both felt that the sky was a little dark.

The second prince came over and said to Lu Ming, "Lord Lu, it's a good thing that you've been promoted. You must work harder in the future. If there is any opportunity, I will help you in time."

The implication is that you need to climb higher! Otherwise, you are really not worthy of this prince.

Lu Ming's expression was indescribable and he could only respond with a "yes".

Lu Anrong came to his senses and knew that things had come to this point, so he could only think positively. In short, a concubine couldn't escape, and it wasn't a big loss for him.

"From now on, Your Highness will be An Rong's brother-in-law. If there is anything I don't understand, can An Rong ask Your Highness for advice?" Lu Anrong began to get close to the second prince.

"Of course, you performed very well, keep it up." The second prince patted him on the shoulder and turned around to see his uncle's back.

Just leave like that?
