Chapter 194 Confrontation
The Empress Dowager chuckled, and turned her eyes to the window. At this moment, the sky outside was clear and the sun was shining on the earth, making the inside and outside of the house a little warmer.

It's a pity that the Queen Mother was not in a good mood. Lu Xin slowly exited the room. When closing the door, his movements were obviously stagnant, and it was only for a moment, and he closed the door slowly.

There was a sigh in the room, that was all.

Su Qing was waiting outside the door and saw Lu Xin coming out. Although he was still calm on the surface, Su Qing had a feeling that the old man seemed to be suppressing something. Her eyes fell on the closed door of the room, and there was a feeling in her heart. It's an indescribable feeling.

Lu Xin stepped firmly and walked out of the door. When she saw Su Qing, she cupped her fists and said, "Princess."

Su Qing also curtseyed, "Master Lu, you are welcome. You are a minister of the Imperial Academy, and you are an existence that poor scholars all over the world look up to. I am just a girl, and I cannot stand such a visit from you."

Lu Xin made a gesture of invitation, and the two walked side by side.

Su Qing didn't hide it, and said straightforwardly: "Master Lu has something to say, and Su Qing will know everything."

After walking for a while, Lu Xin said slowly, "I don't know if my Lu family offended the princess somewhere and made her hold on so tightly."

Su Qing said bluntly: "Master Lu's words are wrong. I am just doing justice for the heavens. Besides, I am venting my anger for Miss Lu and identifying good and bad people for the Lu family. Is there anything wrong with me?"

Lu Xin stopped and looked at Su Qing seriously, "Your behavior is not what a girl should do. The Lu family and the Jiang family are already married, so they are a family. What do you mean by your behavior?"

"Lord Lu never participated in the internal struggles in the court, and only read the books of sages. I have been in the palace for a long time, and Lord Lu knows a thing or two about the affairs in the palace. I have never had any grudges with others. Why would Lord Lu Offer to betroth me to the second son of the Jiang family?"

Su Qing has long wanted to ask Lu Xin about this matter, but now he is not polite, "Master Lu, who reads sage books, does he also have some evil intentions? Want to get a share?"

Lu Xin frowned, "The old man is just respecting people, and he doesn't know the secret, so he thinks so."

"You thought that the two of us were in love with each other, and that you just mentioned it casually, but you didn't know that you never made any request to the emperor or the queen mother because of your own reasons. Your opening means that the emperor and the queen mother are in love. The Empress Dowager must seriously consider it."

Su Qing was not polite, "You can use ignorance to ruin my life, then I can also use ignorance to deal with this matter, but it's all the same reason, is Master Lu going to take revenge?"

Lu Xin saw that Su Qing's eyes were firm, and he was not timid when he stared at him. He was a little lost for a moment, but it was only a moment, Lu Xin said, "I was reckless in what happened that day, but things have turned around, and it was you who took over." You have the upper hand, why do you have to chase after him so hard?"

"What do you mean I have the upper hand?"

Su Qing sneered, and flicked his sleeves behind his back, like a capable man, "I just won this round with my ingenuity, and in Lu Da's mouth, it seems that the winner should retreat One step, Lord Lu, the words "the weak are right" should not be applied to him."

After a pause, Su Qing said: "How about my three children in the Hanlin Academy? Master Lu, I regard the three of them as my own life. I can send the three of them to the Imperial Academy because Master Lu is out of spirit and knows You will not take your anger out on others at will, not to mention those three are just children, if Master Lu came here today to warn me that the three children are in danger, then I would rather take the three children away and go to a private school outside. I also don’t want to let the three children suffer a little harm.”

Lu Xin stared at Su Qing for a long time, then hissed, "As far as I know, you picked up those three children on the road. Why do you regard them as your life?"

"No reason."

Su Qing tugged at the corners of her mouth, picked up her handkerchief and wiped her eyes, "I called my mother one day, she is my child, there are not so many reasons, just like Master Lu entering the palace today, he just wanted to warn me, but Lu My lord, haven't you ever wondered what kind of secrets are hidden behind your opening? Why did the Jiang family hold on to me? Could it be because of Song Zhi? I'm afraid that's not the case."

Lu Xin's eyes moved slightly, he thought for a moment, then shook his head slightly, "Forget it, nothing, the old man is really angry today. After all, the matter is over. No matter what the process is, the result has come out. It was the old man's behavior that harmed his granddaughter. I have nothing to say, but how can you stop?"

"Master Lu said the wrong thing. It's not how I can stop, but how I can't protect myself."

Su Qing frowned, "In the eyes of Mr. Lu, am I an unreasonable person? I am not a vicious person with a vicious heart. This can be observed by Mr. Lu. Similarly, if you don't blame others when you encounter problems, please do not blame others." Lord Lu gave the three children a chance, if they can't do it, please don't hurt them, otherwise, I won't let anyone hurt the people around me, no matter who they are."

When Su Qing said the last sentence, he stared at Lu Xin without any expression. For many years, no one could look directly at Lu Xin like this, and Su Qing, a fledgling girl, did just that.

When he came out of the palace, Lu Xin had already told Su Qing that he didn't know about the three children. The three children studied very seriously in the Imperial Academy, and Lu Xin liked the three of them very much.

Su Qing knew that Lu Xin entered the palace, one was for verification, and the other was to talk about the three children.

Su Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Lu Xin looked serious, and what he said would definitely come true. The three children are safe now.

It's just about the Jiang family's affairs, Su Qing suddenly has no idea, until today, the Jiang family is to blame, but it only involves the Lu family, how to deal with the aftermath is beyond Su Qing's thought.

For several days in a row, it was as if nothing of the kind happened to the Jiang family. The Jiang family went in and out all day long, without any change from the past.

The gossip from the place of Fireworks and Willow Lane gradually decreased when the Jiang family didn't care, but Lu Zizhi became more and more dissatisfied with the Jiang family.

It has been five or six days since Mrs. Huang came back, and on the seventh day, invitation letters were widely distributed, inviting everyone to go to his house to enjoy the spring.

This is the time when the flowers are growing, not to mention that they have only been back for a few days, but they brought some flowers and plants from the outside, and they wanted to show their faces by virtue of their return.

Huang Houye sent invitations, naturally he wanted to save face, even the Queen Mother gave a lot of things, for the Queen Mother's face, many people were invited to go, and prepared a lot of good things.
