   Chapter 484 Contest (4)

  Lu Mingyu and Li Jing looked at each other, swallowed their anger, and turned away together.

The moment    turned around, Lu Mingyu and Li Hao, who was still kneeling on the ground, made eye contact.

   Li Hao's eyes are like a deep pool, unfathomable. Lu Mingyu was full of disgust, and his eyes were full of contempt. However, it is not appropriate to have another dispute today. This account will be settled slowly in the coming days.

   As soon as Li Jing and his wife left, the atmosphere in the Wenhua Hall also eased.

Queen Qiao is also a good person to pretend, she walked in front of Li Hao and helped Li Hao with her own hands: "Why are you still kneeling, get up quickly. What happened today is your second brother and second sister-in-law's outspokenness. Don't you? Blame them both."

Li Hao replied with a look of shame: "My mother said that, my son is embarrassed. It is because my son is thoughtless and too wishful thinking. The mother is right, there is no reason to get married. Why should I ask first? The meaning of King Xingyang. If the Lu family is not willing to marry, they cannot force a girl from the Lu family."

Queen Qiao said with a warm smile: "You are only twenty years old, and you are well-intentioned. It is inevitable that you will make a mistake and make a mistake. How can this palace blame you? , don't make a fuss about this."

   Li Hao immediately said: "How can this happen. Erchen's heart for the second brother has never changed. I'm just afraid that the second brother will hate me because of this."

   Queen Qiao said with a smile: "Bengong has guaranteed you a ticket, you can rest assured."

   Then, he said to Emperor Yongjia in a pleasant manner: "Your Majesty, I won't bother you much, so I'll go back to Jiaofang Hall first."

  Empress Qiao continued to fight and fight, but Emperor Yongjia couldn't keep his face sullen and nodded slightly: "Alright. When I have time, I will go to Jiaofangdian and talk to the queen in detail."

   Got free time?

  What counts as free time?

  I can’t stop anything I want to go. If you don't want to go, there are always thousands of excuses.

   Queen Qiao smiled: "Yes, the concubine is waiting for the holy drive."

   When Queen Qiao also left, only Emperor Yongjia and Li Hao were left in the Wenhua Hall.

  Li Hao said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, royal father. It was all my sons and ministers who came up with such a bad idea. To make the second brother and sister-in-law so angry, it also embarrassed the father for a time."

  Emperor Yongjia sighed: "Forget it, what are you talking about now? It's also too simple for me to think..."

  I didn't say anything about it because of why. He turned and said, "You go back first! When King Xingyang enters the palace tomorrow, I will ask King Xingyang carefully. If King Xingyang is not willing, this marriage can only be abandoned."

   Li Hao nodded and left soon.

After    walked out of Wenhua Palace, the corner of Li Hao's mouth twitched slightly.

   No matter what, he won this round. It doesn't matter whether the marriage is successful or not. The important thing is that the estrangement between the emperor and the east palace is reborn.

   No matter how strong the saints are, they can't help but spend it like this.

  In the Wenhua Hall, Emperor Yongjia sat alone for a long time. He didn't know what to think. Anger flashed through Longmu's eyes and he snorted.

  …

  In the hall of Jiaofang, Queen Qiao sat opposite her son and daughter-in-law.

  Empress Qiao, who has always been good-natured, had a stern face at this time, and scolded her son and daughter-in-law: "Since you all see that this is a trap set by Li Hao, why are you so impulsive and fall into his calculations."

   Li Jing's eyes were full of coldness, and he said solemnly: "If you don't refuse, the royal father will issue an imperial decree to confer marriage."

   Queen Qiao took a deep breath and quickly looked at Lu Mingyu: "Isn't it going to get to this point! Didn't the emperor say that King Xingyang was summoned?"

Lu Mingyu didn't have a trace of superfluous expression on his face, just looked at Queen Qiao like this: "If our attitude is gentle today, this marriage cannot be rejected at all. The queen mother, the father emperor ruled the world, established the great Wei Wanshi foundation, Tianwei is illustrious, holy The heart is arbitrary, and the temperament and temperament are also different from before.”

  Queen Joe: "..."

   Queen Joe's complexion is also difficult to look at.

  The change of Emperor Yongjia, how could she not know it?

  Before, Emperor Yongjia only favored Concubine Meng because he really liked Concubine Meng. Today, he lifts up Concubine Meng more to suppress the Central Palace and weaken the power of the Eastern Palace.

  The former Yongjia Emperor was wise and martial, with a broad mind.

  The current emperor, relying on unparalleled achievements, is arrogant and more and more arbitrary. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to do things like today.

   Queen Qiao felt more and more frightened the more she thought about it. She gritted her teeth and said angrily: "This Li Hao really has no good intentions. This is deliberately poking a nail into the emperor's heart. After this incident, the emperor is afraid that he is even more dissatisfied with the East Palace."

  Lu Mingyu's eyes flashed, and his voice was solemn: "No matter what, I can't sacrifice Fifth Sister's life-long event to break this game."

   "Of course." Li Jing answered without hesitation: "Before you came, I had categorically rejected my father's proposal."

   Queen Qiao was dumbfounded for a moment, then sighed again: "It's already like this, it's useless to talk about it. You should be more careful in the future. This Li Hao is really not a fuel-efficient lamp."

   Lee Spots nodded.

  Lu Mingyu was in a bad mood and didn't speak much.

  Li Jing gave her a deep look, stretched out his hand, and took Lu Mingyu's hand into his palm.

  Lu Mingyu twitched the corner of Li Jing's mouth, indicating that he was fine.

   Queen Qiao silently turned her head to one side and rubbed her forehead.

  …

   In the morning of the second day, Li Jing and Li Hao met up in the morning, and they each smiled and cupped their hands, and exchanged greetings.

  What happened in the Wenhua Hall yesterday, the eldest prince and the fourth princes all heard some rumors, and they were speculating in their hearts.

  Nevertheless, Li Jing and Li Hao both looked calm and could not see the slightest trace of arguing.

   However, in the early morning, it was obvious that something was wrong.

  Emperor Yongjia, who was sitting high on the dragon chair, had a sullen face today, and he did not smile at all from beginning to end.

  The courtiers discussed the matter, and Emperor Yongjia named the prince to open his mouth. When Li Jing spoke, he picked up his nose and eyes again, being fussy about nothing.

   Fortunately, Li Jing was able to hold his breath and endured one by one.

   The eldest prince couldn't help but glance at Li Hao, thinking that this third brother is really sinister. I don't know what tricks I used to make the father hate the prince.

   Even the fourth prince felt bad.

   In the past few months, the prince was often scolded and reprimanded. In recent times, it has eased considerably. what happened today?

   In the afternoon, Lu Lin, the king of Xingyang, rushed back to the capital from the military camp, without even entering the gate of Lu Mansion, he immediately rode into the palace to face the saint.

  Lu Lin hurried back to Beijing on horseback, but there was no trace of tiredness between his eyebrows, his eyes were bright, and he saluted: "Chen Lu Lin, I have seen the emperor."

  Emperor Yongjia chuckled: "Get up quickly, I am in such a hurry to call you back, it's not a business, it's a private matter."

  Lu Lin met a messenger from the East Palace halfway through, and already knew what happened in the palace. At this time, his expression remained unchanged, and he said with a smile: "I am all ears, please let the emperor speak clearly."
