Chapter 1038： The melon is so big that I can’t eat it in one bite!

Chapter 1038 The melon is so big that it can’t be eaten in one bite!

Of course, the most important thing is that Lu Zong is a man with deep knowledge and a gentle appearance, but in fact he knows how to make choices and his methods are clever.

It cannot be said that this character is not good, but it is not as reassuring as a sincere person.

Who would have thought that Lu Zong would be so enamored with the good news? After the imperial edict granted marriage to the third princess, he would be so entangled that he plotted against the Northern Expeditionary Army...

"Who else knows about this? Does the princess know?" The Marquis gave Li Laosi a hand, motioned him to sit down, and then asked coldly.

Mu Jue thought for a while and responded, "The eldest young master should know, and so does the uncle. As for the others, I don't know.

“But Prince Lu occasionally pays too much attention to the princess. With the princess’ intelligence, I am afraid that he would have guessed it quickly.”

“You bitch, who gave him the courage! How dare he think about what’s in the pot when he’s eating from the bowl! Wait until I knock his teeth all over so he can’t eat anything!”

Li Laosi was so angry that he banged the table twice and started thinking about his daughter again.

"Although the third princess gets along well with Fu Niu'er, there are not many royal people who are really generous. If one day she finds out that this **** from the Lu family likes Fu Niu'er or doesn't like her, I'm afraid the third princess won't know how to do it at all. Ask the reason and blame Fu Niu'er!"

He stood up again anxiously, "No! We need Fu Niu'er to leave the palace immediately and go directly to Quanzhou! The further away the better."

The Marquis nodded in rare agreement and said, "Wait until I write a letter to Fu Niu'er and ask her to live in Quanzhou for a while."

I don't want to, Mu Yan shakes his head, "Hou Ye, Master Four, I am afraid that it will not work. The county owner will not leave."

Li Laosi immediately responded, "It won't work if she doesn't leave. I'll rush back to Xindu and put her on the ship myself.

"As long as she, a girl, gets involved in such a bad thing, no matter who is right or wrong, her reputation can be ruined by gossip!"

At this time, the soldiers reported outside the tent. It turned out that the noodles were cooked.

Mu Jue stood up and went to pick up the tray.

Two large pottery bowls were filled with noodles, sprinkled with meat sauce, and fragrant.

Mu Jue brought a bowl to Li Laosi and persuaded him, "Master Fourth, let's eat first. There are many things to do. Don't even think about persuading the princess to go to Quanzhou. The princess will definitely not leave."

Li Laosi subconsciously took the noodle bowl, and finally remembered it and shouted in a low voice, "What else is going on in Xindu? Isn't it said that everything in Xindu is very good? Is Fu Niu'er worried about Broken Gold Beach?"

“Let’s talk about it, let’s talk about it.” Mu Jue laughed dryly, lowered his head and took a big mouthful of noodles.

Li Laosi couldn't help it, and he was really hungry, so he lowered his head and started eating with him.

The Marquis sat aside and drank tea, waiting for the two of them to finish.

Neither of them kept him waiting any longer, and the noodle bowl was empty in the blink of an eye.

Li Laosi wiped his lips and urged, "Hurry up, tell me if there is anything else!"

Mu Jue burped and glanced at the door. The Marquis understood and responded, "Don't worry, no one can come near without my order."

Mu Jue felt relieved now. When he was about to speak, Li Laosi added, "To make a long story short, let's focus on the key points!"

Mu Jue immediately responded, "The emperor was poisoned by the imperial concubine. The emperor allowed the court to elect a prince. The marquis of Zhenbei rebelled. The emperor is ready to eliminate the imperial concubine and the queen mother at one go."

Li Laosi opened his mouth in shock and did not close it for a long time.

This is indeed the point, but it’s also... too heavy!

The Marquis almost spilled the tea in his hand and asked, "Who else knows about the Emperor's poisoning? Did the Queen Mother notice that the Marquis of Zhenbei rebelled?"

Mu Jue did not dare to be naughty anymore and said in a low voice, "Only the princess and the third princess know about the emperor's poisoning. Because the concubine chose a chronic poison, the emperor noticed it and used the third princess to be frightened at night to visit Zhilan Palace, and then invited The Imperial Hospital first checked his pulse and discovered that Long was ill. "However, the emperor still loved the imperial concubine and the second prince. He even proposed to establish a prince, but the emperor did not object and allowed the courtiers to recommend him.

"In addition, the Marquis of Zhenbei went in and out of the imperial study at night to talk secretly with the emperor. Only the princess and I knew that the princess had sent a message to my uncle. My uncle felt that the matter was very important and was afraid that it would be unsafe to deliver the secret message, so he let me go. trip."

Although Li Laosi is brave and lacking in strategy, he is definitely not stupid.

At this moment, he immediately raised questions, "It is inevitable that the Marquis of Zhenbei will rebel. That person is a snob to begin with. Seeing the decline of the Queen Mother, it is expected that he will switch to the Emperor's camp.

"But why does the imperial concubine want to poison the emperor? You must know that the emperor only has one son, the second prince. Sooner or later, the world belongs to the second prince, it's just a few years later. What is the imperial concubine so anxious about? Why has she refused to wait for these years?"

Mu Jue raised the corners of his mouth and looked at the Marquis with bright eyes.

Seeing him like this, the Marquis raised his eyebrows and asked, "You actually know about such a confidential matter?"

Mu Jue coughed twice and responded with a smile, "By chance, I happened to find a little clue. I have been in and out of the palace all day long, and it would be strange not to notice it."

Li Laosi listened to them playing riddles and couldn't guess, so he felt a little anxious.

“What exactly are you talking about?”

The Marquis didn't want to hide it from him. After all, the Northern Expeditionary Army was away with tens of thousands of words. If something happened to him, Li Laosi would have to take over the entire army. If he knew more, he would be more cautious.

So, he ordered, "It's a very important matter. Don't tell anyone if you've heard about it."

Li Laosi nodded quickly, and then the Marquis turned his head and said something in his ear.

Li Laosi’s eyes widened instantly. If his eye sockets hadn’t been so dedicated, his eyeballs would have probably flew out...

The melon is too big to be eaten in one bite!

Mu Jue saw that his future father-in-law's eyes were as wide as bells, and he had to use all his strength to hold back his laughter.

After finally recovering, he did not forget about business.

“Marquis, the princess said that although there is no immediate danger to the emperor’s life due to his poisoning, it will only take a few months at most, and things will change.

“So, many things that were not urgent before are now extremely urgent for the emperor.

"For example, regaining lost territory, unifying the country, and establishing a reputation before and after. Such as eradicating the troubles of the former dynasty and the harem, and clearing the way for the son. Even if the original close relatives are even slightly likely to become an obstacle to the son in the future, they will No mercy...

“Please, Lord Marquis, please think carefully and put your own safety and that of the Northern Expeditionary Army first in everything.”

The Marquis was silent for a long time, sighed softly, and nodded.

"Go back and tell the princess to reassure her. I don't value eternal fame. Anyone who wants it can take it. But my closest relatives and my generals will never allow anyone to threaten and trample on them!"

"With your words, I feel relieved!" Mu Jue was still a little worried at first, but after hearing these words, he immediately responded happily, "Haha, originally I was ready to take the princess to travel around the world. Now it seems that there is no need to worry.”

Li Laosi immediately glared and asked, "If you can't live in a good home, why are you wandering around the world? At that time, I still have a long knife in my hand, and I will just chop down whoever dares to touch it!"

Mu Jue chuckled and ran away quickly, "I'm going to see the brothers on the food delivery team."

Before the words were spoken, the person had already disappeared...

Fortunately, at this time, a drum sound suddenly sounded.
