Chapter 335 He is too courageous
Be prepared early. These four words are easier said than done.
It has been less than a year since Song Junyan started to have the idea.
During this period of time, the emperor's mind has been changeable and moody, so he needs to be extremely cautious in his actions.
Not to mention that there was no time to win over the officials in the court, even the support from the Zhang family that the Queen promised during the New Year had not yet been discussed in detail.
Song Junyan hadn't even found a chance to sit down and talk with Zhang Yongping.
Thinking about the situation they were facing now, Lu Xinlan was a little more optimistic than the other two.
"In fact, if you think about it from another perspective, His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei has not had time to get more help, and the other princes are in the same situation at this time."
Since we are all at the same starting line, we cannot be considered to be at a disadvantage.
Especially since they also have Lu Xinran's system, a miraculous artifact. If they calculate carefully, they are the most proactive party.
When she said this, Lu Xinran immediately agreed: "Sister is right, we know more than others now, and we do have more initiative."
As for how things will develop in the future, they just need to pay attention and make more plans.
"In fact, the most important point now is that we still don't know the reason behind Yunsong's actions today."
Yunsong had been able to plot for so many years, so he must have acted extremely carefully and prudently.
No matter how confident he was, he must have considered the consequences if he failed before taking action.
"You say, since he dares to appear in front of people with his real identity, does it mean that he wants to close the net?"
He would be so willful only if he was not afraid of exposing himself and his identity.
Lu Xinlan looked at Song Junyan, wanting to know if he was careful enough since he wanted the throne.
Song Junyan was still recalling what they had talked about Yunsong's methods over the years before entering the palace.
"I thought of another point." He ignored Lu Xinlan's slightly scrutinizing gaze and looked at his princess: "Do you still remember that what you complained about the most in the past was your father's private vault?"
"You mean?"
Lu Xinran's heart moved and a thought flashed through his mind.
"Has the emperor's private treasury already become his?"
"Well, given the way my father behaves, no matter how much he likes gold, silver and luxurious things, he will not focus all his attention on his private vault.
"Just like you said, the whole world belongs to him. Whatever he wants will be given to him. He doesn't need to worry about his private vault.
"But over the years, my father has been disposing of his private property in various places in the capital, and he has also hired someone to manage his private treasury. This cannot but arouse suspicion."
Someone must have seduced the emperor and drawn his attention to gold and silver.
What could be faster and safer than letting the emperor make money for you?
He can also use the emperor's channels to achieve everything he wants.
The more he analyzed, the more shocking it became. Lu Xinran couldn't wait to open Yunsong's booklet again.
This time she had a focus, and it only took her a quarter of an hour to discover something fishy.
"It is indeed as you said! Not only did he try every possible means to subdue Eunuch Fu, he also arranged many of his people around the emperor. No wonder Yunsong took action immediately after Eunuch Fu told you that he wanted to join you."
Now that he has been exposed, he simply stopped hiding.
Moreover... the previous arrangements have also reached the harvest period.
"We can't guess what he's going to do next, so we can only stay alert and respond accordingly."
Lu Xinlan's words made the couple nod slightly in agreement, but Lu Xinran always had a feeling that she seemed to have overlooked something.
But when I thought about it carefully, I couldn't think of anything. I could only scratch the hair at the back of my head in annoyance.
"Your Majesty, the Duke is at the back door. He said he wants to see you for something important."
A servant's voice was heard outside the house. Song Junyan asked someone to take the person to the study in the front yard and immediately got up and went out.
Lu Xinran watched his back as he quickly left, and was already guessing the purpose of Zhang Yongping's visit to the palace today.
"Sister, do you think the capital is going to be in chaos?"
The emperor is courting death, several princes have their own ideas, and there is one who is being used as a substitute and wants to get back everything that belongs to him.
Thinking about the future situation in Beijing, she couldn't help but have a headache.
Lu Xinlan had expected this, so her expression was very calm: "When the old is replaced by the new, there will always be chaos for a while. In fact, it's better to be like this now. If the emperor can really kill himself in the next one or two years, it will save the internal friction of the princes fighting each other, and won't cause too much unrest in the country."
"That's true!"
Makes sense!
Lu Xinran was instantly convinced by her words. He was not in a hurry to read Yunsong's confusing booklet. Instead, he pulled her aside and talked about Liu again.
"Sister, do you really want to divorce your brother-in-law? From what you said before, your brother-in-law is not a mama's boy. He is willing to be sent out with you and leave the capital, and..."
She thought this guy was just okay.
But then he immediately raised his hand and slapped him on the mouth.
It's not that she can't live without a man. Life will only be more comfortable after the divorce. No matter how good a person Tang Chongli is, he deserves a low score and a bad review if he has a mother like that!
Lu Xinlan smiled faintly, obviously unwilling to talk about this.
"We'll talk about this later."
It's not that she has no feelings for Tang Chongli, but compared with the comfortable and carefree days, his weight in her heart is far from enough.
In the study room in the front yard, Zhang Yongping looked at the tall Song Junyan with complicated eyes. Thinking of what his daughter said in the mansion today, he still found it hard to accept.
Could the emperor who confined the Zhang family in the capital, making them cautious at all times and not dare to act rashly, really be the Zhang family's child?
No, from the moment he was taken away by the late emperor, he had no relationship with their Zhang family anymore.
"What did the Queen tell you?"
After a long time, he sighed quietly and asked very directly.
Song Junyan met his scrutinizing gaze and felt an inexplicable sense of amusement in his heart.
This was the second time in one day that he was scrutinized like this.
So, if you want to reach that position, the first hurdle you have to overcome is the scrutiny of your supporters?
Under Zhang Yongping's sharp gaze, he said calmly: "Duke Zhenguo, what you should ask is what we said to our mother."
His words were somewhat provocative, but they made Zhang Yongping's eyes show a bit of satisfaction.
It’s okay. My daughter has a good vision. She is not a timid person and she won’t be eager to get the support of the Zhang family just because of his arrival.
"Then tell me what you said to the Queen."
"We have already told Mother everything we can tell her. I believe she has already told the Duke and the old lady today."
This is just a bunch of nonsense.
Zhang Yongping could no longer hold back and rolled his eyes: "Alright, time is limited, I don't want to waste time talking to you, just tell me what you are planning."
Song Junyan spread his hands, and Zhang Yongping wanted to hit someone because of this single guy.
"We haven't figured it out yet."
Everything has changed so fast in recent days. Who could have thought that the emperor's health would soon fail?
