Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 1644: Tell me where you went wrong.
Lu Mingyu sat on the phoenix throne, looking down at the person kneeling in front of him.

She said nothing and sat quietly.

Wearing bright red clothes, sprinkled with gold and falling phoenix, she is graceful and luxurious.

Concubine Liu did not dare to raise her head. The red smear on her clothes in the corner of her eye made her break into a cold sweat.

She knelt down fearfully for a while, but Lu Mingyu didn't speak, which made her even more uneasy.

At this time, Lu Yi shouted: "Bring it up!"

Two chamberlains escorted a little palace maid up and threw her directly to Mrs. Liu.

As soon as Mrs. Liu saw the face of the palace maid, she was at a loss for words.

But she quickly calmed down and asked cautiously: "Mother, did the maid in my concubine's palace commit a crime?"

Asking such a question shows that she is prepared to deny it even to death.

Lu Mingyu slowly raised his head and looked at Concubine Liu calmly: "Actually, I have asked you to come here today for something else. We will talk about you, maid, later."

Concubine Liu was startled and looked at Lu Mingyu in confusion: "I wonder what the purpose of your concubine is?"

Lu Mingyu got straight to the point and said, "I want to marry the nephew of the concubine's mother-in-law."

Concubine Liu suddenly raised her head: "Mother, mother?"

Lu Mingyu smiled slightly: "What? Mrs. Liu thinks that I am not worthy of granting a marriage to your nephew?"

Concubine Liu quickly apologized with fear and sincerity: "Your Majesty, I don't mean this, please be clear to me!"

Lu Mingyu asked: "Then what do you mean?"

Concubine Liu quickly said: "Go back to your Majesty, I am so flattered that I have lost my composure. Please enlighten me."

Lu Mingyu fell into silence again.

The room was so quiet that Concubine Liu seemed to be able to hear her own heavy breathing.

She waited with trepidation and uneasiness.

But after a long time, Lu Mingyu still didn't speak.

She finally couldn't hold it any longer and asked in a low voice: "Mother, I wonder whose family's lady you are?"

Lu Mingyu raised her eyes again and said, "Tiffany Liu, you also know that the Qi'an Marquis Mansion is not what it used to be. It doesn't need to be as prosperous as it was when the emperor was in power."

"If I give the crown prince the daughter of an important minister, it is inevitable that outsiders will make irresponsible remarks and think that I am deliberately biased against the Marquis of Qi'an Mansion."

"I have always been fair in dealing with matters, with clear rewards and punishments. Therefore, based on the current situation of the Marquis of Qi'an Mansion, I have found a good match for the prince."

"The other party is Miss Du Yuexi, the concubine of the magistrate of Huainan County. I have seen Miss Du's portrait. She is a beautiful and gentle woman. She is absolutely a perfect match for the prince. They are a perfect match."

Mrs. Liu was so shocked that she was speechless.

If the Marquis Mansion falls again, and there is still a noble title, it will not be the concubine of the seventh-grade Zhima official family to be the crown prince's wife.This marriage seems to be affectionate, but in fact it is an insult.

If such a person is really taken, will the Liu family become a laughing stock?
So, Mrs. Liu couldn't help it anymore.

She refused on the spot, risking her life: "Your Majesty, I think that Miss Du and the Crown Prince are not suitable for each other. Do you still want your Majesty to take back your life?"

Lu Mingyu raised her lips: "It doesn't match? Where doesn't it match? Tell me."

Concubine Liu gritted her teeth and said with all her might, "Madam, as the saying goes, when marrying a wife, it is important to have a well-matched wife."

"My concubine, Miss Du, was born too young and is not suitable for the heir apparent. It would be fine if she were a legitimate daughter, but she is still a concubine who cannot be put on the stage."

"The identities of the two are so different. If the prince marries Miss Du, not to mention it will make people laugh, but even if they are not mentioned in the same place on weekdays, I am afraid it will not be a good marriage."

Lu Mingyu said casually: "Don't worry about Mrs. Liu, I'm afraid it will be the Du family who despises the Liu family as unworthy, not Mrs. Liu who dislikes the Du family here."

Concubine Liu didn't understand why: "I don't understand what your Majesty means, so I ask your Majesty to make it clear."

Lu Mingyu snorted softly: "It's Mrs. Liu's fault for this. No matter what happens to the Liu family, it's all your fault, Mrs. Liu."

Concubine Liu was shocked, but she still looked puzzled.

Lu Mingyu was not in a hurry and fell into silence again.

Lu Yi brought a cup of honey tea, and Lu Mingyu took it in his hand, slowly lifted the lid and took a sip.

The room fell into extreme silence, and the atmosphere was terrifyingly tense.

The sound of closing the tea lid sounded like thunder in Mrs. Liu's ears.

She was shaking so hard that she finally knelt on the ground: "My queen, everything is my fault, please punish me! It has nothing to do with my natal family!"

Lu Mingyu remained unmoved.

Lu Yi spoke: "What do you mean by the concubine? You plead guilty inexplicably, but you don't say where you went wrong. Isn't this clearly trapping the concubine in an unjust place?"

"What will outsiders think of your Majesty? Do they think that your Majesty is bullying others and has wronged you?"

At this point, Concubine Liu finally understood what the Queen meant.

The Queen was reminding her to plead guilty.

Otherwise, the Qi'an Hou Mansion will be implicated by her.

She slowly closed her eyes, but a feeling of uneasiness filled her heart.

After all, she underestimated this queen. She seemed soft and amiable to everyone, but she didn't expect that she was completely different from the previous queen.

Thinking of this, she knelt on the ground resigned to her fate: "Mother, I know I was wrong..."
