After marrying a powerful minister, the female partner was pampered

Chapter 240 I thought I was dreaming

"I like it so much." Lu Shuangshuang couldn't put it down and said sincerely, "Thank you, sister-in-law."

Seeing a smile on her face, Qiao Jingjing felt relieved and asked, "Let's go out for a walk in the afternoon?"

"Okay." Lu Shuangshuang agreed happily.

Thinking of something, she swallowed her saliva and said, "Sister-in-law, the cat fruit yesterday was delicious."

Qiao Jingjing pretended not to understand, "Yes, it's quite delicious."

Lu Shuang's eyes were bright, "You seem to have four more in your hand."

"Yes, if you eat one, you will lose one. I really want to treasure them." Qiao Jingjing's face did not change.

Lu Shuangshuang: "..."

"But if you don't eat it, it will go bad if you keep it for a long time." She couldn't help but remind her.

Qiao Jingjing said with a serious face: "That is the sacred fruit of Canglang Kingdom. Even if it is broken, I will not dislike it."

Lu Shuangshuang: "..."

She's made it so obvious, why doesn't she understand?
She was extremely depressed and was about to say something else when a servant hurried over to report: "Madam, Miss, an imperial edict has arrived from the palace. The master and the old lady have already gone to the front yard."

The aunt and sister-in-law looked at each other, both of them were quite surprised.

What imperial edict?
Although they were surprised, the two of them rushed to the front yard.

When the two arrived, Lu's father and mother were indeed there, including Lu Xingzhi.

He was still wearing official uniform, and he had obviously just returned from the court.

The person delivering the order was Eunuch Zhao, the eunuch in charge.

Seeing the arrival of Lu Shuangshuang, he unfolded the imperial edict with a smile, "By the fate of heaven, the emperor Zhao said: I inherit the holy thread of the late emperor and receive the title of Zongzhou. I will work hard and never slack off. I heard that the person who is the holy king will establish a queen, so as to The Chengzu Temple is built in all directions. I am the sister of Lu Xingzhi, the Minister of Civil Affairs. She is gentle, graceful and dignified, and is worthy of my mother. I am very happy and specially appointed as the queen. "

As the last word of Eunuch Zhao fell, everyone in the Lu family froze in place, thinking that they had heard it wrong.

Especially Lu Shuangshuang, who was completely stunned.

The sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly, and she actually began to daydream.

She couldn't help but pinch her leg quietly.

Ugh, it hurts!

If it hurts, it’s not a dream.

She turned to look at her family blankly.

I saw that my family members had the same expression as hers.

Seeing that none of the Lu family members responded, Eunuch Zhao couldn't help but cough slightly and said, "Miss Lu, please accept the order."

Lu Shuangshuang felt in disbelief, looked at Eunuch Zhao, and couldn't help but said: "Eunuch Zhao did not go to the wrong place, did he read the imperial edict correctly?"

Eunuch Zhao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "No matter how confused this old slave is, he still recognizes that this is Lu Shangshu's Mansion, and he is not so blind that he will even misunderstand the words on the imperial edict. Miss Lu, please take the edict quickly."

When Lu Shuangshuang heard this, he felt uneasy.

I always feel that this thing is too incredible.

The emperor wants to hire her as his queen?

She felt like she was dreaming.

She looked at her brother hesitantly.

Lu Xingzhi also felt complicated at this time.

He did not expect that the emperor would want to marry Shuangshuang.

It's not that he looks down on his sister, but that he knows very well that he is not suitable to be a queen.

Moreover, the emperor had just gone to court and did not disclose this matter.

Thinking about it, he stood up and invited Eunuch Zhao aside to talk.

"Eunuch Zhao, the imperial edict is that my sister-in-law cannot be received at the moment. Can you please wait here? I want to enter the palace and ask the emperor to confirm this matter."

Eunuch Zhao knew that he had doubts in his heart and understood his mood.

The emperor's decree to establish the queen was issued just this morning. It was very sudden, and the ministers were not summoned for discussion.

But he was very sure that this matter was not a whim of the emperor.

But Lu Shangshu said so, so he had no choice but to agree, "Then please Master Lu, please go and come back quickly."

Lu Xingzhi nodded, and after ordering Butler Wang to entertain him, he immediately entered the palace without any further delay.

What Eunuch Zhao didn't know was that Lu Xingzhi came to the palace not to seek confirmation from the emperor, but to ask the emperor to take back his orders.

Qiao Jingjing and Lu's father and mother were relieved at this moment.

It is also incredible that the emperor wants to marry both of them.

Of course, yesterday at Cining Palace, the emperor showed interest in Lu Shuangshuang, and they all noticed it.

But they only thought that the emperor would at most accept Lu Shuangshuang as a concubine instead of a queen.

Mother Lu was already looking haggard, but now she was even more worried.

Known daughter Moruomu.

Like Lu Xingzhi, she felt that her daughter was not qualified to be the queen.

In addition, the harem has always been full of troubles, and if you are not careful, your life can be involved. How can you control the Sixth Palace with your daughter's temperament?

Mother Lu was worried.

Qiao Jingjing saw that her eyes were black and blue, and because of Lu Shuangshuang's incident, she looked anxious and unspeakable, and didn't know what to say.

But she knew clearly that when Lu Xingzhi entered the palace, he must have wanted to ask the emperor to take back his life.

Father Lu sighed, and after asking Butler Wang to entertain Eunuch Zhao well, he took a few people back to Dexin Hall.

royal palace.

When Chu Ye learned that Lu Xingzhi asked for an audience, he was not surprised at all and quickly summoned him.

"Lu Aiqing just left the palace, why did she enter the palace again?"

Lu Xingzhi looked at the young emperor writing furiously after the imperial examination with complicated emotions.

What he held in his hand was the quill he presented yesterday.

It seems that he used it very smoothly.

Facing the emperor's knowing question, he paused for a moment and then said: "I sincerely ask the emperor to take back my order."

Chu Ye paused while writing, "What do you mean?"

"My sister-in-law's ability and character are not qualified for the post." Lu Xingzhi said directly.

Chu Ye frowned, "Aiqing has too little confidence in your sister. I think she has this ability."

Lu Xingzhi glanced at him, as if to say, do you believe this?

Chu Ye touched his nose.

Naturally, he could see that Lu Shuangshuang's ability was mediocre and average.

But when he made her his queen, he didn't look at her ability, he only looked at her suitability.

In his opinion, Lu Shuangshuang is very suitable for the back position.

"I also ask the emperor to take back his orders and select another suitable noblewoman to take charge of the middle palace." Lu Xing knew.

Chu Ye put down his pen, frowned and said, "Lu Aiqing doesn't need to say more, I have made up my mind."

Lu Xingzhi frowned, "I don't understand what the emperor likes about my sister-in-law?"

"Although your sister doesn't have outstanding abilities, I just want a wife who is quiet, not noisy, and doesn't cause trouble." Chu Ye told the truth.

When Lu Xingzhi heard this, he looked at him strangely, shook his head and said, "The emperor has only met my sister-in-law once. I'm afraid he will be greatly disappointed by then."

If he was not slandering his sister, it was Lu Shuangshuang's temperament and not what the emperor said.

Of course, Lu Shuangshuang has indeed changed recently, but she has been spoiled by her mother since she was a child, and she is afraid that her true colors will be revealed again when she enters the palace.

Chu Ye was a little surprised when he heard the meaning of his words, "You have a problem with your sister?" Otherwise, how could any brother talk about his sister like this?
