Chapter 572 Bring it up

The emperor also understood what these people came to him for.

Now that they have said everything they should say so clearly, if they pretend not to know anything here, I'm afraid it won't be of much use.

What exactly Shu Yunqing meant when he came here was as clear as a mirror in everyone's mind.

Although it was said that it was for the innocence of the Lu family, it was actually to save Lu Jiashu's life.

This matter involves a lot of interests, if it is not handled properly, I am afraid that it will cause no one knows what kind of turmoil it will cause.

Although the emperor wanted to suppress the Lu family as Ji Yulan said, he still didn't do it until now because of this factor.

Now, after hearing what Ji Yulan said, the emperor silently agrees in his heart.

The emperor took a deep breath and calmed down his emotions a little before sitting back in his seat.

The emperor cast his eyes on Shu Yunqing, and saw that there was always determination in Shu Yunqing's eyes, "Shu Yunqing, you came here today, I'm afraid you don't want to go back alone!"

Shu Yunqing knew that the emperor had already seen through his own thoughts, so since these words had reached this point, there was nothing to hide.

After hearing the emperor's question, she didn't even think about it, and said without hesitation, "Your Majesty, there is only Lu Jiashu left in the Lu family. If something happens to him, then the Lu family will also die." There is nothing to look forward to!"

The emperor just looked at Shu Yunqing for a moment, and after the person finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Eunuch Gao who was standing beside him, "Go, bring me here!"

The princess seemed to have noticed something, but he didn't know what the emperor was thinking in his heart, and was afraid of something unexpected, so he took a step forward, "Father..."

It's just that before the next words could be said, the emperor stretched out his hand and made a movement to stop the princess.

The emperor knew that a string had already been stretched in their hearts.

He also didn't intend to embarrass them because of these things, so after relaxing a bit, he turned his head and gave them an explanation.

"You guys just need to sit here quietly and listen now. As for other things, I don't need to say much. I understand what you mean, but I also have my own thoughts and considerations."

After hearing what the emperor said, Ji Yulan only smiled faintly, but her expression was respectful.

"Your Majesty is wise, I think His Majesty has already had some thoughts in his heart, since this is the case, then it is useless for us to talk more, just stand aside and watch obediently!"

As soon as Ji Yulan's voice fell, Eunuch Gao walked in in a hurry, he didn't know what he said in the emperor's ear, and soon a man with both hands in shackles was brought in outside the door.

After Shu Yunqing noticed the familiar aura beside her, she immediately turned her head away. When she saw Lu Jiashu appearing beside her, she was filled with excitement, but more worried, "Ashu, you How are you all right?"

Lu Jiashu shook his head in relief, "Yun Qing, am I standing right in front of you right now? Don't worry, I'm fine!"

When the emperor saw the two of them in front of him, he made a fuss about you and me, and he felt very uncomfortable.

Seeing that the two of them exchanged pleasantries, they coughed lightly, and stopped their behavior.

The emperor cast all his eyes on Lu Jiashu, his eyes were full of seriousness and sternness, "Lu Jiashu, before you disobeyed the imperial decree and refused to marry the princess, and now such a big event happened in the Lu family salt mine, you What should I think?"

After hearing the emperor's question, Lu Jiashu knelt down in front of him very respectfully.

"Your Majesty, I'm really not the princess's beloved. I've always thought of Shu Yunqing as the only one in my heart. If I really marry the princess back home, then the princess must be the one who will be wronged."

As he spoke, Lu Jiashu lowered his head, "The princess is His Majesty's most beloved daughter, it is absolutely impossible for me to do such a treasonable thing!"

After listening to the other party's narration, the emperor just snorted coldly, as if he didn't believe what Lu Jiashu said was true.

"What you said sounds nice, but is what you say and what you do the same thing?"

Lu Jiashu naturally understood that the emperor felt humiliated in his heart at this moment.

Since he is the emperor, it is a great honor to degrade his most beloved daughter to himself.

There is no one in the world who does not want to be favored like this, but now I have rejected the emperor's good intentions in front of so many people, I am afraid that people have some opinions about me in their hearts.

Lu Jiashu understands this, so even if people get angry in front of him, he just accepts it and never complains. It's just that he always tells the truth, so he will never blame him for something he has never done. been hacked.

He knew that the emperor had resentment towards him in his heart, and he was even more afraid of the Lu family, but he would never admit to something he had never done.

"Your Majesty can see clearly, if what I say is half false, then let me die!"

Seeing this man maintain a righteous and dignified appearance, the emperor felt even more dissatisfied.

Even if he knew that Lu Jiashu's words were indeed reasonable, there was no way to compare this matter with the face he had lost.

The emperor thought for a while, and looked at the man kneeling in front of him with great interest. He really wanted to see how long this man's bones could be hardened.

"Today, if you promise to marry the princess in front of me, then I promise to release you, let you investigate the matter of the salt mine in person, and give me an answer, are you willing?"

As soon as the emperor's words fell, the princess, Shu Yunqing and even Ji Yulan looked at the emperor with wide eyes in disbelief, as if they didn't understand why he brought up this matter all of a sudden.

The princess stepped forward in a panic and came to the emperor's side, for fear that the emperor would make up her mind and ruin her lifelong happiness.

"Father, I have never had any relationship with Lu Jiashu, if my father lets me marry into the Lu family like this, I'm afraid I will never be happy in my life.

What's more, Lu Jiashu already has his elder sister by his side, so if I go, it's just a vase, and it doesn't have any existence value! "

After the emperor encountered such a situation, he gave Eunuch Gao a wink, and Eunuch Gao would immediately step up and take the princess down.

"Father...you can't do this!"

The emperor just acted as if he hadn't heard anything, and stared at Lu Jiashu intently, "Lu Jiashu, I've already given you this opportunity. As for what choice you make, that's your own business!"
