Chapter 86 ;(1/2)
Chapter 86; Letter to the Emperor
"Miss, are you planning to ask His Highness the First Prince for help?"
Lu Yaoyao shook his head.
"I'm not asking him for help, but I'm giving him a blessing."
"It depends on what he chooses."
What happened to the Lu family this time was very dangerous, and she didn't think that the eldest prince would stand up for her because of the life-saving grace he did.
The purpose of making an appointment with the eldest prince is to see whether his highness is worthy of close friendship.
If he comes tomorrow, then she won't mind giving him a gift to help him completely win the position of crown prince.
If they don't come, their friendship with each other will end here.
Then this good fortune will be sent directly to the emperor.
"Since you are not sure how he will choose, why not go directly to His Highness Prince Jin?"
"Prince Jin?"
She didn't even think about it.
Not to mention that this person has always acted like a free king, the Lu family is also not easy to deal with this matter, and they may not expose themselves to help her.
Besides, King Jin was extremely benevolent in delivering the letter in advance this time.
How can I push myself further and trouble others?
The next day, noon.
Lu Yaoyao was waiting in the private room on the third floor of Baizhen Building.
Until the appointed time passed, there was no trace of the eldest prince, and no servant was even sent to say a word.
She shook her head and stood up.
"Let's go back."
The three masters and servants left Baizhen Tower.
"Fortunately, I used to think that His Highness the First Prince was a nice person. I was really blind at the time."
Qiu Yu has always been angry.
"We don't have a deep friendship with him, so it's reasonable for him not to come."
"Why are you angry?"
Lu Yaoyao was not angry at all about the eldest prince not coming.
After all, she had prepared two plans from the beginning. The first choice of the eldest prince was just to help the Lu family.
Since he keeps me at arm's length, it's fair to assume that he has never made any friends with me.
After returning to the house, Lu Yaoyao went directly to the study.
After a while, she came out with a letter.
"Give this to Prime Minister Wen, and ask him to teach it to His Majesty himself."
Qiu Shuang took the letter and turned around without saying much.
Soon the letter was delivered to Wen Songtao.
"Father, what does this Miss Lu mean?"
Wenxuan frowned and continued, "Does she think she can save the Lu family by writing a love letter?"
Hearing this, Wen Songtao glanced sideways at him.
"Do you think Yao Yao is as stupid as you?"
"Father, you."
Wenxuan was a little embarrassed. After all, he was a grown man, and he was also a third-rank official in the imperial court. Could it be that he was not as smart as a girl who was not as hair-haired?
How could this dear father give me any face?
Wen Songtao snorted lightly and walked out with the letter in his pocket.
"Father, you are not really going to deliver a message to His Majesty, are you?"
"Shut up, do you need to explain to you idiot what you have to do as a father?"
Wen Songtao walked away angrily.
Idiot?
Wenxuan's head is full of black lines.
"Why does Mr. Wen have time to come to my place?"
In the imperial study, Emperor Hongwen looked at Wen Songtao with a smile and asked.
"I'm here to deliver a message."
"Oh? What letter?"
Emperor Hongwen looked surprised.
"In the Jiangdong Lu family, Miss Lu wrote a handwritten letter, asking the veteran to personally deliver it to Your Majesty."
Hearing this, Emperor Hongwen frowned and showed displeasure.
"I have always thought that Wen Xiang is the most prudent person. Why did you do such an illegal thing today?"
"Not to mention that Miss Lu is from a daughter's family, just talk about her status, what qualifications does she have to write to me?"
Wen Songtao was not afraid and continued respectfully, "Your Majesty is unaware of something."
"I was in humble circumstances when I was young, and I got what I am today with the help of the old man of the Lu family. The Lu family is very kind to me."
"After today's morning court meeting, I asked my eldest daughter-in-law to come over."
"Miss Lu is a sensible person. Instead of asking for repayment, she persuaded the old minister and his family not to get involved in this matter."
"It's just that I feel really unhappy."
"So just now she had someone send a letter and asked me to forward it to His Majesty. I really couldn't bear to refuse."
"That's why I came here to deliver a message. If Your Majesty wants to punish me, I will bear it."
Emperor Hongwen looked at his confidants kneeling in front of him in silence. After a while, he spoke.
"In that case, let me take a look."
"It just won't happen next time."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Wen Songtao kowtowed heavily.
At the same time, Li De stepped forward, took the letter from Wen Songtao, and respectfully delivered it to the Long Case.
Emperor Hongwen took it out.
"Good words."
At just one glance, he was shocked by the beautiful hairpin pattern on the letter.
However, after reading the letter, he stood up.
A look of surprise appeared on his usually majestic and calm face.
"Quick, Li De, go and tell Lu Yaoyao to enter the palace, I want to see her."
His move shocked everyone in the Imperial Study Room.
Li De had not seen Emperor Hongwen like this for many years. Before accepting the order, he subconsciously glanced at the letter.
I thought to myself, could it be written about Lu Yunjun? Or maybe Miss Lu is actually...
As soon as he thought of this, he quickly cut it off, respectfully exited the imperial study, and headed straight out of the palace.
Similarly, Wen Songtao also looked surprised and took a deep look at the letter in Emperor Hongwen's hand.
I’m curious about what’s written here?
How could Emperor Hongwen be so excited.
Look, my hands are shaking.
"My dear, please get up quickly, you have brought me a big surprise."
"Thank you Your Majesty for not blaming me."
Emperor Hongwen smiled and waved his hands and said, "In the future, if you send as many letters as you like, not only will I not blame you, but I will also give you a big reward."
Hearing this, Wen Songtao became more and more curious about what was written in this letter.
As if seeing his curiosity, Emperor Hongwen didn't even hide it.
