If I were born again, I would marry a strong but short-lived husband.

Chapter 309: King Chen

The next day, Emperor Fu claimed to be ill and did not attend court.

But the cabinet issued two imperial edicts at the same time.

First, an announcement was made to the world that the emperor and empress's first son, that is, the eldest son, had been found and was named Prince Chen.

The second one was to confer the title of Concubine Ning on the princess who married into the Yong Dynasty.

Lu Yuan received the imperial edict at the Ruan family.

"Prince Chen, this title is okay." Ruan Xinglin said in a light tone.

Ruan Yilang glanced at his elder brother and could hardly suppress the smile. This title was obviously very good.

"We will go to the Taimiao tomorrow to formally recognize our ancestors," said Ruan Xinglin.

Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows and looked at the imperial edict in his hand, "Okay."

"Let's go and see the palace. Sister has prepared it for you a long time ago." Ruan Yilang said excitedly.

The eyes of the two children, Ruan Zhaoxia and Ruan Zhaoxi, also lit up. "We want to go to see our cousin's palace, too."

Lu Yuan smiled and said, "You go first. I still have to go to the Honglu Temple."

"You go, the eldest prince of the Yong Dynasty should also know that you have been crowned king." Ruan Xinglin whispered.

Feng Chuanjin indeed already knew it.

This was expected.

"I never thought that in just a few days, Commander Lu has now become the Prince of the Southern Dynasty." Feng Chuanjin bowed and congratulated Lu Yuan generously.

"Your Highness, please don't make fun of me." Lu Yuan sighed helplessly.

Others might marvel at his good luck, but Feng Chuanjin, who grew up in the imperial palace, should know better than anyone that there must be some unknown secret behind the fact that the eldest son of an emperor and empress would be abducted out of the palace.

What kind of palace maid can take a newborn prince out of the palace?

This is clearly an excuse.

Just to cover up the even more unbearable facts.

"So what are your plans next?" Feng Chuanjin asked.

When he came here, he was Commander Lu, and now he has become a prince of another country, and his future is promising.

But everything Lu Yuan had in the Yong Dynasty could not be cut off just like that.

"Your Highness, Guangning is dead." Lu Yuan said in a low voice.

Feng Chuanjin's expression darkened slightly. He raised his eyes and stared at Lu Yuan, knowing that Lu Yuan would not joke about this matter.

"How did he die?" Feng Chuanjin asked.

"Princess Guangning snatched away the palace's favorites, two of whom were students from the academy. They were tortured to death by the princess. The academy students went to the palace to seek justice, and the emperor demoted Princess Guangning to a commoner. The brother of one of the two favorites deliberately approached the princess and took the opportunity to kill her." Lu Yuan told Feng Chuanjin the news he had received.

Feng Chuanjin's expression changed again and again.

I was angry that Guangning killed innocent people, but I was also heartbroken that his sister lost her life at such a young age.

"Empress Yao did not teach Guangning well." Feng Chuanjin said in a deep voice.

"Your Highness, you know what Concubine Xian and Bai did to Guangning. Concubine Xian is your biological mother." Lu Yuan said in a low voice.

Feng Chuanjin frowned, "I know what you want to say."

"Guangning's temperament changed drastically because he was hurt, and my mother was the murderer who caused all this. Although my mother is dead, I can't guarantee that Concubine Yao and the Second Prince will blame me when they think of Guangning's death."

"So I plan to stay at the border and never return to Shangjing."

Lu Yuan: "The emperor is seriously ill, I'm afraid he won't be able to wait for you to return."

Feng Chuanjin stood up suddenly, "What did you say?"

"Now the Second Prince is the regent and the Queen Mother is assisting in governing the country. The Second Prince has blocked the news that the Emperor is seriously ill." Lu Yuan said.

"I'll go back immediately." Feng Chuanjin said.

Lu Yuan grabbed his hand and said, "Your Highness, if you go back now, I'm afraid you won't be able to come out again."

Feng Chuanjin's eyes gradually darkened.

"What do you mean by telling me this?" Feng Chuanjin asked.

Lu Yuan knew Concubine Yao's character very well. Guangning's death was too tragic, and she would definitely vent her anger on everyone who had a grudge against Guangning.

Although he and Shen Suian may not live in Shangjing in the future, their relatives and friends are all there.

He hopes Feng Chuanjin can fight for it.

"Your Highness, Concubine Xian did so much just to pave the way for you," Lu Yuan said.

"I don't want you to be depressed and frustrated for the rest of your life."

Feng Chuanjin's heart tightened, and he sat back dejectedly, "Let me think about it again."

The two sat facing each other in silence for a long time.

"Now you and I are in the same boat." After a while, Feng Chuanjin chuckled to himself.

Lu Yuan’s situation in the royal capital was also difficult.

I heard that Emperor Fu of the Southern Dynasty favors the eldest prince born to the imperial concubine. Oh, he can’t be considered the eldest prince anymore, he should be the second prince now.

It is well known that the crown prince is a sickly person, and the ministers of the Southern Dynasty all regard the second prince as the future new emperor.

Now that Lu Yuan has descended from the sky, it is unknown how the internal strife will turn out.

Lu Yuan must fight in a sea of ​​blood to survive.

"I'm different from you." Lu Yuan raised his lips slightly, "I have a wife, she makes me fearless."

“……” Feng Chuanjin turned her face away, haha!

……

Yong Dynasty, Shangjing.

With the retirement of Prime Minister Zhang, the disputes in the court finally subsided.

Those who originally supported the Fifth Prince, seeing that the Second Prince had become regent, realized that it was impossible to change the situation, and gradually they gave up.

Even the Queen Mother is protecting the Second Prince, so what can they do even if they jump around?

What's more, they have lost their leader Zhang Shoufu, and they are even less powerful.

Shen Sui'an hasn't received a letter from Lu Yuan for some time.

She guessed that he should return to the Southern Dynasty, but she didn't know what kind of difficulties he was facing in the Southern Dynasty now.

"County Lady, this month is already the 27th." Banjian's voice was filled with joy.

"Yeah, I'm already 27, why is there still no letter?" Shen Sui'an sighed.

Hanjian took a deep breath, "No, girl."

She was so anxious that she even confused the address. "Your period hasn't come yet."

This has been delayed for half a month.

Shen Sui'an was slightly stunned. She had too many things to do this month and didn't even notice whether her period was on time.

"Maybe you're too tired..." Shen Sui'an's voice was also a little nervous.

"I'll go get the doctor right away." Ban Jian said hurriedly.

"Don't go." Shen Sui'an became cautious, "Go prepare the carriage, we'll go visit Sister Cheng."

For such an important matter, she only trusted Zhou Zhou's judgment.

Cheng Zhiyun has finished her confinement. After a month of recuperation, her body has become rounder, but her skin has become whiter and more rosy.

When Shen Suian arrived, Cheng Zhiyun was hugging Huan Ge'er and crying silently.

"What happened?" Shen Sui'an was shocked and temporarily put his own affairs behind him.

"Just now, Brother Huan was walking on the road and was almost hit by a carriage." Cheng Zhiyun's voice was trembling.

Shen Suian's eyes turned cold. Last month, Huan Ge'er almost fell into the lake accidentally. Fortunately, he was found in time by the servants, but he took a long time to recover.

There was another accident today, but that’s not an accident anymore.

"Where is Doctor Zhou?" Shen Suian asked.

Cheng Zhiyun said, "He went to find He Hongkui."

"I'm going to the Marquis of Jingning's Mansion." Shen Sui'an turned around to leave, but saw Zhou Zhou walking in from the door.

"You don't have to go. Huan'er will live here from now on." Zhou Zhou looked at Cheng Zhiyun and her son, "Huan'er, do you want to live with mother?"

He Xianghuan's eyes lit up, "I want to!"

Zhou Zhou raised a gentle smile, "Then stay here. Wherever we go in the future, you will be there too."
