Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 1033 Are you provoking?

There was silence all around, and you could hear a needle drop. The long silence made everyone's hearts suddenly tremble, and a feeling of uneasiness spread throughout their bodies.

In the dead silence, Lu Mingyu suddenly spoke and said leisurely: "Mrs. Liu, I wonder if Mr. Liu has ever told you about Bai Yichu's death."

Everyone was startled, even Mrs. Liu was at a loss.

Lu Mingyu raised a sneer on his lips: "In the past, Bai Yichu, the jewel in the palm of Dingbei Hou Mansion, was beheaded by me at the foot of Guiyan City for colluding with Northern Qi. Tens of thousands of soldiers can testify."

At this point, Lu Mingyu stopped talking.

Madam Bai continued: "My Lady, why do you say such misleading things? Before Bai Yichu died, the late Emperor gave His Highness the concubine in marriage. If you say that, people who don't know would think that you were killed out of jealousy." If you kill Bai Yichu, this will not be good for your reputation."

Lu Mingyu smiled slightly: "Thank you, Aunt Qiong, for reminding me that I made a mistake. Mentioning this past incident now will indeed cause misunderstanding."

Lu Yi said: "Your Majesty, what Mrs. Bai said is absolutely true. You'd better not say anything like this in the future. If you are rumored to be a jealous woman, wouldn't you die unjustly?"

Lu Mingyu agreed: "That's true. I obviously have nothing to be jealous of. I am deeply loved by my husband, and I gave birth to two sons and a daughter for him. My elder brother is the Duke of Yiyongyue, and my cousin is a brave champion in the three armies. King Xingyang, I also have a prime minister as my brother-in-law."

"These are enough to keep my position as stable as a mountain. I don't have to go out of my way to consolidate my position, nor do I have to keep concubines for my husband just to tie him down."

Seeing the excitement on everyone's faces, Lu Mingyu chuckled softly: "It's my fault that I said this in front of you, as if I was showing off. There is no need to say these obvious things."

After saying these words, Lu Mingyu looked at Mrs. Liu and said with a half-smile: "Mrs. Liu, you won't be scared by me, will you?"

Mrs. Liu was not a fool. She knew Lu Mingyu's attitude, which made her a little embarrassed. After hearing this, she had to apologize: "Your Majesty's words are harsh. I was not frightened by your Majesty. It was your fault that I made you misunderstand me."

Lu Mingyu shook his sleeves and said: "Don't say that, I am indeed a murderer without blinking an eye. Other people's ladies have a pair of slender jade fingers, which they use to play piano, chess, write, and paint, but my hands have long been used to kill enemies with a sword." It’s covered in blood, no wonder it scares you.”

Everyone was chattering and didn't dare to speak.

Liu Peiyun's sister was not favored when she entered the palace. When she went to the palace to visit Concubine Xian, she heard Concubine Xian say that Your Majesty has someone in mind, and that the person Your Majesty likes is in the Grand Uncle's Mansion.

Liu Peiyun originally felt that her sister's predicament was probably related to Lu Mingyu, and she resented Lu Mingyu for this.

But there is a difference between superiority and inferiority. She, a minister, is like an ant in front of Lu Mingyu. It is a blessing to see the concubine Taishu, and she even makes unreasonable arguments to argue with the concubine Taishu.

However, seeing that his mother had been so humiliated, Liu Peiyun couldn't help but speak.

She smiled meaningfully and said: "Your Majesty is really humorous, but I am so stupid. I thought you were trying to slap everyone down and tell them not to think wrongly. You will not allow Your Highness to have a concubine."

The smile on Lu Mingyu's face quietly disappeared. She looked at Liu Peiyun and said seriously: "I do have this intention. Is Miss Liu really so stupid that she doesn't understand, or is she deliberately provoking me?"

Mrs. Liu knelt down and begged for mercy: "My queen, I am ignorant. Please forgive her for her mistakes."

When everyone saw that Lu Mingyu was really angry, they didn't dare to speak. They sat on the chairs tremblingly and lowered their heads.

Mrs. Liu kept tugging at Liu Peiyun's clothes, signaling her to kneel down and apologize, but she was stubborn and refused to kneel down.

It happened that Princess Zhenli and Xiao Qian came hand in hand. Seeing the tense atmosphere, Princess Zhenli asked doubtfully: "Mother, what's going on?" Lu Mingyu didn't speak, and Lu Yi replied: "Miss Liu has made my mother unhappy. "

Mrs. Liu kept apologizing: "Please forgive me, my concubine. I am willing to take the punishment on my behalf."

Liu Peiyun naturally knew that she should bow her head and admit her mistake at this time. After all, under the power, her father's face could not be used in front of the prince and the princess.

But the great uncle and concubine were clearly trying to scare the monkeys with her, so by kneeling down, didn't she fulfill the great uncle and concubine's wish?

She is also the daughter of a general, and when faced with such a situation, she just wants to carry on.

But what happened next made her dumbfounded.

Princess Zhenli walked up to her, stared at her, and said two words lightly: "Kneel down!"

Seeing that she didn't move for a while, Lu Yi winked at Xiao Qian.

Xiao Qian took a step forward and said: "Mrs. Liu, my sister is not the kind of person who is unyielding. Since Miss Liu knows her mistakes and cannot correct them, please ask Mrs. Liu to take her back!"

"Sister, she is still weak. Please take care of Miss Liu, Mrs. Liu, and don't let her make my sister angry again."

Mrs. Liu was extremely embarrassed and humiliated, but her daughter refused to admit her mistake, so she had no choice but to step down.

Now that Xiao Qian said these words, she also pushed Liu Peiyun into a dilemma. Whether she surrendered and pleaded guilty, or left just like that, in the eyes of others, it was disrespectful to the great uncle and concubine.

In the end, her identity could not make her throw away her sleeves. Under Princess Zhenli's gaze, she slowly knelt down and said: "I know my mistake, please forgive me."

At this moment, Princess Zhenli and Xiao Qian's expressions softened slightly.

Lu Mingyu's expression remained unchanged, with a seriousness in her calmness. She shook off the non-existent dust on her sleeves and said: "I think everyone is concerned about His Highness's concubine. My attitude today is here. Who does Your Highness like? Whoever he wants to accept is his freedom and I will not interfere."

"If you have the ability, then go directly to your Highness to discuss the matter. If His Highness wants to accept someone, I will never say a word more, but please don't put your idea on my head. I will never do it to please you." husband, and put women next to him.”

"I'm tired, you all should step aside!"

After speaking, Lu Mingyu never looked at the crowd again.

The married women retreated one after another. When they arrived at the door, Mrs. Liu was already breaking out in a cold sweat. She had some contact with Mrs. Li and asked hurriedly: "Sister, has my sister gotten into trouble?"

Mrs. Li glanced at Yuan Yuan, who immediately stepped forward to talk to Liu Peiyun, leaving enough space for Mrs. Li and Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Li lowered her voice and said: "Good sister, you scare me to death. If I knew what your intentions were, I would definitely stop you."

"The empress has made it very obvious. She used Bai Yichu as an example with the intention of knocking people out. She is telling everyone that you must not take advantage of His Highness, otherwise she will not be merciful. .”

Mrs. Liu asked in confusion: "But what did she mean by what she said later?"
