Lou Yiyang in exchange, he let Yu Dingwen, she in the name of the empress of Ying Su as a concubine. As for him, because Tian Lan had stepped in and wanted him to establish a foothold in the Marquis Yuanchao Manor, he chose her as his concubine according to Lou Yiyang's wishes.
However, Lou Yiyang had no intention of letting Yu Dingwen go. However, before he found a suitable opportunity, he had already died, and Yu Dingwen also survived.
In this life, she wasn't going to marry Lou Yiyang. When Empress Dowager Yu died and Lou Yiyang was in power, this Yu Dingwen would have no one to help him.
Lou Yiyang understood the meaning behind Wen Shuyu's words and frowned, "Did Yu Dingwen say something to you?" Why did you suddenly start defending him? It must have something to do with him. "
Wen Shuyu blinked and said in a confused tone, "Even if Lord Yu is Empress Dowager's nephew, she wouldn't allow him to buy or sell official positions, right?"
Wen Shuyu did not mention Empress Dowager Yu. Although this woman had been in charge of the Imperial Examinations for so long, she had always been cautious when it came to promoting officials. Since ancient times, the people were the foundation of the kingdom, while courtiers and ministers were the pillars of the kingdom. They could not afford to be trifled with.
This was also the reason why Lou Yiyang couldn't kill Yu Dingwen immediately after Empress Dowager Yu's death, and also the reason why Wen Shuyu became the master of the world, allowing him to wield both arms and arms.
Wen Shuyu rolled her eyes and said in a clear voice, "Maybe it's that Yang Da who is outstanding?"
Sure enough, Lou Yiyang frowned and started to think "Vice General Huai Nan?" His tone was puzzled, "I had my suspicions too, but Huai Nan is far away from home and is poor. Yang Da is just an unorthodox person, so there's no use in trying to recruit him." If it wasn't for Yu Dingwen in the middle, would the Queen Mother still want to use him? "
Wen Shuyu thought of a man who could win against the Southern City's King Mansion. He was probably Lou Yiyang's cousin, but his branch had been guarding the coast against the pirates for a long time. After a few generations, they had slowly grown stronger. By the time Lou Yiyang had taken over, there was nothing they could do about it.
"In the past, this Lou Yisheng had caused quite a bit of trouble for him, but now, he could be considered to be courteous and courteous in return." What's so strange about that? I occasionally heard Eldest Uncle mention that the military power of the imperial government was all in the hands of the Southern Lord. That Huai Nan is also in the coastal area, Yang Da, you also said that it was a simple road. I'm afraid they can't control it or they're trying to find a way out. "
With that, she reacted, she just wanted to get Yu Dingwen back, and she also took the Yang family. Then thinking about it, even if Yang Jian had gone all the way into the Imperial Palace, he probably wouldn't have shown anyone any favoritism, right?
Lou Yiyang also felt that Wen Shuyu was right, but he thought more and said, "I'm afraid Yang Da wants to find another way out. The Queen Mother wants him to fight with the King of Nanzhen's clam, and she wants him to take down Yang Jian's post in the capital, so she's not afraid of Yang Da disobeying her orders." The more he said, the more he felt that this was how things should be.
Wen Shuyu rolled her eyes in her heart. Do you think that everyone is as sinister as you, Lou Yiyang? The Yang family just wanted to curry favor with Empress Dowager Yu so they could get a good position and go back home to be the local tyrant.
Wen Shuyu saw that Lou Yiyang already thought it was Empress Dowager Yu weighing the pros and cons. Without Yu Dingwen's matter, her goal had already been achieved, so she added on, "Only Empress Dowager knows if this matter is true or not. Moreover, the empress dowager's mind has always been hard to guess."
Lou Yiyang was sure that his guess was right, and grabbed Wen Shuyu as he asked, "Linglong, what do you think about me turning this Wu Tie into Qianqing Palace?"
Wen Shuyu was startled. This Lou Yiyang actually dared to poach the empress dowager's men. He had no scruples. It seemed that he had already decided to go for broke with Empress Dowager Yu. She pretended to be indifferent as she said perfunctorily, "Then just find a chance to tell Empress Dowager about it." After which, he rubbed his eyes.
Lou Yiyang knew she wasn't in good health, so he was afraid that he would freeze her for good. If he pissed off Great Empress Dowager, it wouldn't be worth it. Thus, he dragged her and Wen Shuyu back to the Warm Pavilion in the Palace of Tzu Ning. Seeing that their hands were very cold, Great Empress Dowager ordered someone to bring them some hot tea. Then, she had Song Yun instruct them to cook the sweet ginger soup. Only after leaving a few more brats for dinner did they send people back to the halls.
As soon as Wen Shuyu returned to the side hall, she called Ling Xi over and whispered to her, telling her to ask about Ying Su and to pay a hundred taels of silver to help with the mending.
At this time, Tian Lan also came over with a needle and thread in her arms. Wen Shuyu looked over and wailed, "Good Jing Shu, aren't you afraid that your eyes will hurt? I won't do it, so don't pester me. " As he spoke, he leapt far away.
Tian Lan was amused by her bitter and vengeful look. She moved the colorful thread basket to the side and said, "Alright then. If you don't do it, then don't. Look at where you're from. You're acting like a princess."
She walked up to the soft and slanted pillow and said, "It's just that I sleep too early at this hour. If I'm bored, I came to talk to you."
Wen Shuyu still had lingering fear in her heart as she followed Qian Cao and instructed her to make tea. "Drink the Pu'er we brought back last time."
Tian Lan hurriedly called out to Qian Cao, saying in annoyance, "Your body is still unclear. If you had eaten this tea, you would have gone to bed tonight."
When Wen Shuyu heard this, she buried her face in the pillow and complained sorrowfully, "Jing Shu, you're not being the" Great "for a month, but the" Great "for a round! I'll call you Aunt Jing Shu from now on. "No, it should be Grandma Jing Shu!"
Tian Lan felt angry and amused at the same time. She pulled up the embroidered pillow behind her back and lightly patted Wen Shuyu's back. "Your mouth is really infuriating. Only a person would be willing to let it go."
maidservant, who was still in the room, had long gotten used to the two masters' small fights. She covered her mouth and retreated, leaving the two young masters to play around with each other.
The two of them played around for a while before they stopped and started sweating. Tian Lan slanted her head back onto her pillow and whispered, "Empress Dowager really can't bear it. Sooner or later, the world will be the emperor's. What should she do after this?"
Wen Shuyu's eyes jumped. This was the third time she mentioned Yu Dingwen in the past two days. Previously, she didn't understand this when she was young, but now, she understood that Tian Lan must have fallen in love with Yu Dingwen.
She took Tian Lan's hand and held it in her palm. She looked into Tian Lan's eyes and said seriously, "Jing Shu …" Even if Empress Dowager Yu did not use her power, Yu Dingwen was still a relative. He would take back the title of Yu Family after three generations. Just as you think, Empress Dowager Yu's incident will implicate Yu Dingwen, and he will not have a good life in the future. Everyone in the capital can see that, no one will marry Yu Dingwen to the direct daughter, do you understand? " Tian Lan's face immediately turned pale. She was so flustered that she wanted to take it back, but Wen Shuyu grabbed onto her tightly.
She avoided Wen Shuyu's gaze. "I …" No... "No." After saying that, his eyes became watery.
Wen Shuyu's heart ached when she saw this. She hugged Tian Lan, who had started to sob, and patted her back to comfort her.
