When Lu Mingyu arrived, all the inner women were present.

There are thirteen princesses in total, including princesses and county princesses.

There are also fourteen crown princes and three unmarried princesses left by Emperor Jiayou.

Jie Fang Hall was packed to the brim.

As soon as Lu Mingyu came in, he saw a bunch of jeweled people. Their gorgeous clothes and pearls were more dazzling than the lights in the Xue Fang Hall.

Everyone got up quickly.

Lu Mingyu slowly walked towards the main seat. As soon as he sat down, everyone kowtowed and saluted according to their rank.

By the time everyone had finished kneeling, more than half an hour had passed.

Lu Mingyu looked at everyone sitting neatly and said slowly: "Grandma Fu Wang is sick and can't come today."

She called Grandma Fuwang, not Princess Fu, to show her closeness.

Everyone kept smiling: "Princess Fu was ill a few days ago. I'm afraid she caught a cold in the winter, and she's a little old, so she hasn't recovered yet."

Lu Mingyu smiled and did not continue the topic.

She said: "It is rare for me to see you all at the same time. We are all family members. Let us chat about our daily life today without restraint."

Everyone was speculating on how Lu Mingyu would establish his authority, and no one dared to speak rashly for fear of being used to scare the monkeys.

Lu Mingyu didn't talk to anyone.

The more respectable a person is, the more he pays attention to propriety. What he wants is not to be angry and self-defeating, and he must maintain his manners regardless of happiness, anger, sorrow, or joy.

With Lu Mingyu's current status, there is no need to care about the attitudes of these people, and one must keep an appropriate distance from them. It is not good to be too close.

After a long time, an old princess finally spoke: "Your Majesty's belly looks much bigger than usual."

Lu Mingyu responded to her with a smile: "Maybe it's because I'm thinner, so I look bigger."

The old princess added: "It looks like twins."

Lu Mingyu's smile did not change, and his voice remained slow and soft: "Then Princess Chengxiang's good wishes."

The old princess said nothing more.

But she made the beginning, and the rest of the people also said a few words to Lu Mingyu.

Originally everything was going smoothly and steadily.

But at this moment, Emperor Jiayou's second daughter, Princess Jinhuai, suddenly knelt down in front of Lu Mingyu and said pitifully: "Auntie Huang, please help Jinhuai."

Lu Mingyu's eyelashes trembled. If he suddenly said such words on this occasion, he was either forced into a desperate situation, or he did it intentionally.

The late emperor had five sons and four daughters.

Among the five sons, the eldest prince, Sun Yi, went to Xirong. The second prince had just abdicated and was named King of Chu. The third prince, King Wu, was still in prison. The fourth prince and the fifth prince were just babies of a few years old and were now raised in the palace. Here, they live with their mothers and concubines.

The eldest princess Yuzhen has passed away, and now the second princess Jin Huai, the third princess Qingping and the fourth princess Yonghe are still alive, and they are all still in the boudoir and have never been married.

Emperor Yuanwu never treated his brothers and sisters harshly, and the two young princes were well nurtured. The three princesses lived a pampered life without becoming pawns in marriages.

Princess Jin Huai's behavior is a bit suspicious.

However, Lu Mingyu didn't pay much attention. He put down the tea cup and asked, "Jin Huai, if you have something to say, please speak slowly."

Princess Jinhuai's eyes turned red, and then she said with tears in her eyes: "Auntie Huang, Jin Huai and the new champion Chen Qinyu are in love. Please make the decision."

Lu Mingyu was not in a hurry to speak.

She had some impression of this Chen Qinyu. He was the son of a household minister, and he was born with both civil and military talents.

It is said that his family originally wanted to find him a job, but he refused. Instead, he relied on his own efforts to pass the test and was appointed by Emperor Yuanwu as the number one scholar in the new subject.

Lu Mingyu was not surprised that Jin Huai fell in love with such a person.

But if there is something fishy between Chen Qinyu and Jin Huai, Lu Mingyu doesn't believe it.

Not to mention that he has a bright future, an ambitious person like him would not choose Princess Shang to ruin his bright future.

Mr. Jufeng admired Chen Qinyu very much. If a character like this had anything to do with Jin Huai, he should have asked the elders in the family to make the decision, or ask Emperor Yuanwu to marry him.

It was never Jin Huaiqiu's turn to be in front of her new queen.

At this time, Princess Jin Huai began to cry: "Auntie Huang, Jin Huai has a hard life. Her mother died just after she was born. Fortunately, the Queen Mother took care of her."

"But now that the Queen Mother has gone away on the Luan Immortal, Jin Huai has no one to decide on the major events in his life. That's why he asked Aunt Huang to come here and asked Aunt Huang to help Jin Huai."

Lu Mingyu said: "Jin Huai, I will pay attention to your matter. You should get up and sit down first. It is disrespectful to do so in front of all the elders."

Princess Jin Huai's expression changed, and she became more aggrieved: "Isn't the Imperial Aunt willing to help Jin Huai?"

Lu Mingyu narrowed his eyes and looked at her quietly.

It wasn't until she slowly lowered her head that she slowly spoke: "Jin Huai, you are a golden branch and a jade leaf. You are a role model for many people. You should be reserved."

"First of all, you said that you and the Number One Scholar are in love. Although it is rude, I can understand that at Fang Mu Shaoai's age, it is inevitable to be dazzled by love."

"Secondly, if you two are in love, you should ask the No. [-] Scholar's mother to come and communicate with me in advance. When I understand the situation, I will naturally inform you and ask about your wishes."

"Finally, you shouldn't say such things on such occasions in front of so many elders. Where is your dignity and pride as a princess? Do you care about the face of the number one scholar?"

Princess Jinhuai murmured: "Mother, Jinhuai just heard about your kindness, so she got dizzy for a moment and couldn't help but come to you at this time."

The corners of Lu Mingyu's lips raised: "Jin Huai, do you think I am easy to fool?"
