Chapter 202

"This... adopts a voluntary principle, but..."

Prince Rui was about to speak but stopped.

"Since it is a voluntary principle, are these people voluntary?"

Lu Hao asked again.

In fact, this kind of burial system is also a bad habit in feudal society.

On the surface, the principle is voluntary, but if you are unwilling, the royal family will deal with you until you are willing.

"This one……"

Prince Rui was stunned for a moment.

Lu Hao looked at the eunuch and maid kneeling on the ground and said loudly: "You guys should get up first."

The eunuchs and maids all over the floor stood up and looked over.

"The Queen Mother is kind-hearted, generous and kind... The Queen Mother knows your loyalty, but life cannot be reborn. You eunuchs and maids in Cining Palace are also raised by your biological parents."

"After I asked Prince Rui, I learned that the ancestral system adopts the principle of voluntary burial. In other words, you can decide whether to be buried for the Empress Dowager according to your own wishes."

After Lu Hao finished speaking, he glanced at Prince Rui.

"Prince Rui, are you really doing this on a voluntary basis?"

Lu Hao asked again.

"Yes."

At this time, Prince Rui could only nod his head.

"Everyone has heard that the burial of the Empress Dowager this time is on a voluntary basis. If you are willing, you can stand in front."

Lu Hao said loudly.

It's a pity that among so many eunuchs and maids, none of them stepped forward.

Does anyone know what it means to be buried?
Even if they are eunuchs and maids, they are still human beings. Who doesn’t want to live?
"If you are unwilling, then the head eunuch will assign you where to go."

After Lu Hao finished speaking, he waved to Xiao Xizi.

"You guys come with our family."

Xiao Xizi said to those eunuchs and maids.

In the blink of an eye, all the eunuchs and maids of Cining Palace were taken away, leaving only Prince Rui alone in the wind.

"Prince Rui, you have worked hard this time. The truth has decided that you will be the head of the clan from now on. What do you think?"

Lu Hao looked at Prince Rui who was stunned and asked with a smile.

"What? Become a clan leader? She used to be the Queen Mother..."

Prince Rui was a little flattered.

"Since the Queen Mother has passed away, someone has to be the leader of the clan. I am optimistic about you, so it's settled."

Lu Hao made the final decision.

"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your appreciation. I will definitely be a good clan leader."

Prince Rui smiled flatteringly and quickly thanked him.

Lu Hao chatted with him for a while, asked about the situation of some clan members, and then left with the civil and military officials who had finished paying homage.

After Xiao Xizi took away the group of eunuchs and maids, she was arranging their whereabouts when Lu Hao walked over slowly.

"Xiao Xizi, the Military Aircraft Department needs a few palace maids to be responsible for sorting out the memorials and serving the food and drinks of the ministers."

Lu Hao came over with a smile.

"Master Prime Minister, if you like a palace maid, just take her away."

Xiao Xizi said loudly.

"Okay, then it's up to you to choose the truth."

Lu Hao was not polite.

He walked over slowly and randomly selected four maids, one of whom was Nalan Xiuting.

Nalan Xiuting, who was already frightened by being buried, was finally saved from death and returned to Lu Hao. She was so excited that she almost jumped up.

Lu Hao inquired about the situation of the four palace ladies and appointed Nalan Xiuting as the person in charge.

At the military plane, Lu Hao called Nalan Xiuting into his private room, and the beauty threw herself into his arms.

"Brother Lu Hao, Xiu Ting is scared to death!"

"Don't be afraid! Brother Lu Hao is now the Prime Minister and is fully capable of protecting you. No one can hurt you in the future!"

Lu Hao comforted.

"Brother Lu Hao..." Nalan Xiuting leaned in his arms very attachedly.

"Xiu Ting, you have to stay in the palace for a while now. When the wind passes, I will take you to the house."

Lu Hao thought about getting her out of the palace.

After all, it is too dangerous in the palace.

"really?"

Nalan Xiuting was very happy.

"Of course it's true, but you are the Queen Mother's personal maid. If we take you away directly, you will definitely attract the attention of others. That's why I put you at the military aircraft first."

Lu Hao explained.

"Well, you are still thoughtful."

Nalan Xiuting nodded to express understanding.

The two lingered inside for a long time before Lu Hao let Nalan Xiuting leave.

The ministers are all grown men. With a few maids serving the food and drink, they can naturally work better.

Besides, the military aircraft department also needs people to clean and tidy up the tables and chairs.

Lu Hao successfully rescued his fiancée, and finally felt relieved.

As he said, if Nalan Xiuting is taken out directly, others will definitely know that Xiuting is the person he placed next to the Queen Mother.

If he took her away after a period of time at the military aircraft, it would only mean that the Prime Minister was lonely and unbearable and was fascinated by Nalan Xiuting's beauty.

Lu Hao slowly walked into the lobby of the military aircraft office.

In the hall, Nalan Xiuting had already led several palace maids to start sorting out the memorials and cleaning.

It is now afternoon. Several ministers have finished handling their business and have returned to their respective yamen.

Lu Hao stipulated that the Military Aircraft Department only needs to work in the morning and let them go back to handle the affairs of the department in the afternoon.

After all, there are not so many big things.

As for the memorials sent by various departments, they are basically reviewed by each department themselves. Only if they involve major matters, Lu Hao will be allowed to read them.

After the review of these memorials is completed, they can be issued by Lu Hao Zhubi or stamped with a seal.

Until it was almost dinner time, Xiao Xizi came in a hurry.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, Concubine De and Concubine Shu asked me to send a message, saying that they want to see the Prime Minister."

What happened to them?
Didn’t the truth send people to put pressure on Xixia?

"Understood, you go."

Lu Hao smiled helplessly.

The two beautiful princesses, who are all-powerful to the country and as beautiful as flowers, asked him to meet. If he didn't go, it wouldn't make sense. He should go, because he was worried that he wouldn't be able to walk.

No matter what, both of them were the emperor's concubines, and Lu Hao could only be regarded as a minister of the Murong family.

……

Mingqing Palace.

This is the palace awarded to Princess Heshuo by the Queen Mother.

Since Princess Heshuo was favored by the emperor, she has been canonized as a virtuous concubine, ranking behind the noble concubine.

When Lu Hao arrived here, he was taken to Concubine De's inner chamber.

"You guys go down, I want to have a drink with the Prime Minister."

Princess Heshuo immediately sent away the maid.

It turned out that fine wine and delicacies had been prepared in the inner bedroom.

"Master Prime Minister, please serve!"

Princess Heshuo invited.

"Empress De Fei, you won't have a Hongmen Banquet with me, will you?"

Lu Hao smiled and sat down.

"Prime Minister, I learned that you have sent people to put pressure on the Xixia Kingdom, so I have specially prepared a glass of thin wine to thank the Prime Minister."

Princess Heshuo said with a smile.

"Hahaha... It seems that the news from the empress is very well-informed!"

Lu Haole laughed.
