By the time Zhu Biao arrived, this farce had already come to an end.
After comforting Chang Xiyun, Zhu Su cleaned up the remaining dishes with the principle of not wasting food.
"Little Five, what happened?" Zhu Biao's mood was still calm. The palace servant who sent the letter was also an honest person. The original words to Zhu Biao were: Madam Lu had angered the Crown Princess Consort and the Fifth Prince.
"Brother, it's not that I want to criticize you, but if you want to be a big toad with a red flag that doesn't fall, you have to be capable.”Zhu Su had always been a blabbermouth in front of his father and brother, and Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao were already used to it.
"You little brat, just say what you want.”Zhu Biao glanced at Chang Xiyun, who was about to say something but hesitated. He raised his eyebrows when he realized that Zhu Su had pressed down on her shoulder just as she was about to speak.
Whoa, Zhu Xiaowu was going to stand up for his sister-in-law.
"Brother, I'll be straightforward." Zhu Su straightened his neck and became arrogant."You and Imperial Father are both people who have experienced great storms. Your thoughts are also on the country and the harem. It's not a place for a man to worry about.
However, our mother can control the concubines. Sister-in-law might not be able to suppress demons and ghosts like you.
I don't know what kind of grudge Eldest Sister-in-law had with Concubine Lu.
However, judging from Madam Lu's performance today, your Fifth Brother has already said this, please convey it to her Lu Family.
If my sister-in-law is even the slightest bit unhappy or has an accident with her body in the future, I will blame everyone in the Lu family equally.”Under Zhu Biao's shocked gaze, Zhu Su pointed at the hawthorn cake on the table and said,""If a pregnant woman eats this, it will easily cause a miscarriage.”
Zhu Biao fell silent after hearing Zhu Su's words, while Chang Xiyun looked at Zhu Su with a gratified expression.
She didn't expect Zhu Su to do this for her.
Seeing that Zhu Biao was no longer speaking, Zhu Su turned to Chang Xiyun and chuckled,""Sister Yun, remember, my brother married you, so he has the responsibility and obligation to make everything go well for you. Otherwise, it's her fault. In the future, you don't have to sacrifice yourself for the sake of the big picture.
You're not a girl from a small family without any background. The Chang family, the Xu family, the Li family, and even my Zhu family have many meritorious nobles and even royal relatives who are willing to stand up for you.”
Zhu Su's words made Chang Xiyun tear up.
Zhu Su turned to look at Zhu Biao.""As for me, I'm your biological brother. Because of this, if you have a conflict with sister-in-law, I definitely won't stand on your side. Whether or not you can understand, I will do the same.”
Zhu Biao nodded.”
Zhu Su felt that Zhu Biao was too easily persuaded, so there was no use for him. He rubbed his hands."How about this? How Madam Lu should be punished is not something this little brother can ask. But big brother, sister-in-law doesn't want to call her, so don't let her appear in front of sister-in-law again. If she affects sister-in-law's mood, not only will it affect the harmony between you husband and wife, but it will also affect my unborn little nephew.”
Zhu Biao shook his head. His gaze was still fixed on the plate of hawthorn cake. He recalled that every time he mentioned Madam Lu in front of Chang Xiyun, the other party's expression was not very happy. He had once thought that Xiyun was being too calculative, but now it seemed like that wasn't the case at all.
It was likely that there was a grudge between the two of them, and Chang Xiyun was the one who was most tolerant.
"Then, big brother, I'll go back to Earth Peace Palace to sleep?”Zhu Su probed.
"Hurry up and scram." Zhu Biao, who was thinking about how to punish Madam Lu, said angrily.
"Sister-in-law, I'll be leaving then." Zhu Su deliberately made a face at Chang Xiyun, which made the latter's brows relax.
"Go, I'll send someone to send you. Also, Xiaowu, don't mention what happened today to Imperial Father and Imperial Mother.”Chang Xiyun still couldn't bear to let Zhu Biao clean up the mess alone.
"Don't worry, I, Zhu Xiaowu, am a blabbermouth. No way! I've always kept my mouth shut!"
……
"Mother, that's what happened. That Lu shi is too good at infuriating people. Do you think I should mention it to Uncle Chang and ask him to destroy the Lu family in Jiangnan?”In the Palace of Earthly Tranquility, the tight-lipped Fifth Prince Zhu clung onto Empress Ma's arm and told her everything that had happened.
After hearing Zhu Su's words, Empress Ma did not say a word. Her expression was hard to read.
After a long time, she sighed and turned to Zhu Su.""Don't tell your Imperial Father about this.”Although Zhu Yuanzhang was aware of the commotion in the Eastern Palace, it was not a good time to make a move on Lady Lu.
The first was to punish Lady Lu. No matter what, it would bring down the prestige of the Eastern Palace. Moreover, if the Eastern Palace was restless, it would have a bad reputation.
Moreover, the Lu family had contributed a lot to the dragon, and they represented the Jiangnan aristocrats. It was unreasonable to attack the Lu family now.
According to Empress Ma's understanding of Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang might hold a grudge against the Lu family because of this matter, but he would definitely not fall out with them immediately.
Because for now, Old Zhu's main target was still the proud soldiers and generals under him, as well as the corrupt officials who worked for him.
"Oh." Zhu Su, who felt that he couldn't help Sister Yun vent her anger, replied weakly.
"Alright, you're impressive and loyal enough. You even dared to fight with your brother's concubine in the Eastern Palace for Xiyun.”Empress Ma pinched her son's ear affectionately. This time, she really looked at her silly son in a new light.
"Sigh, who asked our Zhu Xiaowu to be so loyal.”" Mother, if I didn't do it, Sister Yun would have splashed the hot soup on Madam Lu's face!" I don't want to ruin my Sister Yun's virtuous reputation for a mere Lu shi, so I'll be the bad guy.”
In the end, Zhu Su thought for a moment and said,""Mother, don't have any opinions about Sister Yun because of this. I think that no matter which mother in the world, they would probably not be able to see someone scheming against their own son.”
" My Su 'er is really…" Empress Ma patted Zhu Su's cheek in relief. She paused and changed the topic,"" Tomorrow, help me go out of the palace to see Da Hu and your cousin. Also, that kid Jing Long must have suffered a great crime. Do you want to prepare some gifts for him…"
"This child thanks mother for her permission! But Mother, can I not see Cousin Wenzhong? I'm afraid he'll beat me up…As for Jing Long…"
Empress Ma and Zhu Su began to talk about light topics. They discussed what present to give Jing Long and what clothes to wear tomorrow.
The atmosphere finally relaxed.
