Chapter 277 Betrayal?
"Yunxun, it's rare that you still remember me, your mother?"
After Zhu Yunwen left, only Lu and Zhu Yunhuan were left in the hall.
Lu chuckled, looked at Zhu Yunhuan, and asked softly.
"Mother concubine."
Zhu Yunhuan sneered and looked around.
With these servants around, it was actually not convenient for him to speak.
"Go down."
Seeing this, Mrs. Lu gently raised her hand and drove away all the servants around.
"Crown Princess..."
Only Zhang Yong looked at Zhu Yunhuan and called out to Lu with some hesitation.
"You go down too."
Mrs. Lu glared at him out of the corner of her eye, forcing him to leave with the other servants reluctantly.
Zhu Yunhuan looked at Zhang Yong's departing back.
He had seen this person before.
During this period, this person's power in the Eastern Palace has grown, even to the point of being somewhat arrogant.
However, Zhu Yunhuan ignored him because he was the Crown Princess's man.
Now it seems that this person can be said to be the Crown Princess's confidant.
"Can we talk now?"
After sending everyone around away, the Crown Princess looked at Zhu Yunhuan again and asked with a smile.
"can."
Zhu Yunhuan nodded, took out a bottle from his arms and shook it in front of Lu.
"What is this?"
Looking at the bottle that Zhu Yunhuan took out, Lu suddenly had a bad feeling. She stopped joking and asked in a deep voice.
Zhu Yunhuan did not answer, but smiled and turned the bottle upside down, pouring out a few shriveled poisonous insects.
"This is!"
Looking at the poisonous insect in Zhu Yunhuan's hand, the Crown Princess couldn't even care about her posture and showed a look of shock.
"The Crown Princess should be familiar with this thing."
Zhu Yunhuan looked at the Crown Princess's surprised expression and his smile only deepened.
This thing, they both know it very well.
"what are you up to?"
The Crown Princess frowned and looked at Zhu Yunhuan with a sullen face.
Why is this guy taking out the poisonous insect now?
"Nothing to do."
After Zhu Yunhuan packed the insect and placed it on the ground, he took a step back and distanced himself from the bottle.
However, his actions made Lu even more unsure of his purpose and she became even more vigilant.
"I came here this time to reconcile with you."
Zhu Yunhuan raised his head, looked at Lu, and said with a relaxed expression.
Hearing Zhu Yunhun's words, the Crown Princess opened her eyes wide and looked at him in disbelief, as if she couldn't believe what she had just heard.
Zhu Yunhuan would actually seek reconciliation with me?
This was something she had never thought of.
"of course."
Zhu Yunhuan nodded, confirming his purpose again.
"You and I both know where this Gu came from."
He did not beat around the bush and looked seriously at the Crown Princess sitting there.
That was where his mother was supposed to sit.
The Crown Princess fell silent, and looked at him warily without answering.
"To prove my sincerity, I took out all these poisonous insects."
Zhu Yunxun said this, clapped his hands, then spread them out and chuckled.
"This way, I will lose my only evidence, and no one will know what you did."
Faced with Zhu Yunhuan who looked relaxed, the Crown Princess did not respond for a long time, but just looked at him vigilantly.
After a long silence, she finally collected her expression and regained her composure.
"You and Zhu Ming were very close, why are you looking back?"
The Crown Princess did not comment on what Zhu Yunhuan had just said, but instead looked at him and asked back.
Ever since Zhu Ming came back, Zhu Yunhuan has been very close to him.
But now he is saying something and coming to me to reconcile, which is really suspicious.
Moreover, he always suspected that he was the one who killed his mother.
He didn't think Zhu Yunhuan would let go of the revenge for his mother's murder so easily.
"Because of the position of crown prince."
Seeing that Lu asked about his purpose, Zhu Yunhuan also became serious and spoke in a deep voice while looking at the Crown Princess.
When she heard Zhu Yunhuan talking about the position of crown prince, Lu frowned and narrowed her eyes, looking very dangerous.
"I can stop investigating the grudge between you and me."
Zhu Yunhuan seemed not to notice the change in the Crown Princess's expression and continued speaking.
"But the position of crown prince must remain in the East Palace."
As Zhu Yunhuan spoke, he became angrier and angrier, and he even clenched his hands unconsciously.
It seems that he has made a great determination.
"Oh?"
After hearing Zhu Yunhuan's reason, the Crown Princess let out a light exclamation and became a little interested.
Now, she was interested in listening to what Zhu Yunhuan had to say next.
"My father is the crown prince. After he passes away, the crown prince position should remain in the East Palace."
Zhu Yunhuan looked at the Crown Princess firmly.
For the sake of the crown prince position left by his father, he can ignore the hatred of the crown princess for killing his mother.
"You know I won't support you."
The Crown Princess chuckled, looked at Zhu Yunhuan, and asked jokingly.
Although Zhu Yunhuan was also a member of the Eastern Palace, he was not her son.
Her plan all along was to help Zhu Yunwen become the crown prince.
This will not change even if Zhu Yunhuan gives up his hatred.
"I know."
Zhu Yunhuan nodded affirmatively.
Of course he knew the gap between himself and Zhu Yunwen.
He also knew that no matter what, the Crown Princess would not support him.
"Even if my brother succeeds to the throne, it is better than giving it to an outsider."
Zhu Yunhuan spoke again.
"Do you know what you mean by that?"
Hearing what Zhu Yunhuan said, the Crown Princess felt even more surprised.
She made it clear that it was impossible to let Zhu Yunhuan compete for the position of crown prince.
"I know, and I will support my brother."
Zhu Yunhuan was not stupid, and he was certainly aware of this.
"Hahaha, this is getting interesting."
Upon hearing this, the Crown Princess couldn't help but laugh, as if she had heard a joke.
"You are just an unpopular prince now. What can you do to help your brother?"
After laughing, the Crown Princess's face turned cold again. She looked at Zhu Yunhuan and asked back with disdain.
Zhu Yunhuan's current status is of no help to them.
"I have gained Zhu Ming's trust now."
Zhu Yunhuan looked at the Crown Princess's disdainful attitude, but remained calm and responded unhurriedly.
Zhu Ming had few friends among the royal heirs, and Zhu Yunhuan was one of them.
Zhu Ming undoubtedly trusted Zhu Yunhuan very much.
With his help, it is undoubtedly equivalent to having an extra spy around Zhu Ming.
"You are betraying him."
Upon seeing this, the Crown Princess' expression became serious and she asked again.
"It's just for the position of crown prince."
Hearing the Crown Princess's question, Zhu Yunheng sneered and raised his head to look directly at the Crown Princess.
"Besides, someone like you still cares about this?"
The Crown Princess has many deaths on her hands.
