Chapter 1482
Princess Xiangning's grandfather was the Minister of War of the current dynasty. The old minister had been through three emperors and was also considered a veteran of the current dynasty and the strongest tyrant of the country.
Even the emperor has to give him three face, so naturally the eldest princess has to respect him.
Seeing that Lao Fu Wang was not able to rely on the peacemaker, Xiangning and his daughter were unable to count on him, so they turned their attention to the Minister of War.
However, before they could take action, Lu Mingyu invited the wife of the Minister of War to visit Taishu's Mansion.
The wife is already in her fifties. If the old Shangshu had not yet retired, she would have been the old lady respected by the descendants of the mansion.
Lu Mingyu rarely had any interaction with his wife, and suddenly summoned the wife of Shangshu, which made the old lady feel nervous.
But she still paid respectfully on the side of the week: "My wife pays homage to the concubine Tai Shu."
Lu Mingyu smiled and said, "Madam Gao, please get up."
After Mrs. Gao thanked her, Lu Yi helped her sit on a chair.
She was restless: "I wonder what the reason why the concubine Tai Shu called her wife to come?"
Lu Mingyu went straight to the scene: "It's not a big deal, but if this matter is not resolved and let it ferment, it's a bad ending at that time, so I'll ask Mrs. Gao to take this trip."
This made Mrs. Gao become more and more nervous: "Please ask the Concubine Tai to make a clear statement."
Lu Mingyu sighed and asked, "I wonder how much Mrs. Gao knows about Princess Xiangning?"
Mrs. Gao lowered her eyelashes to cover up her panic and uneasiness: "Xiangning is the granddaughter of her wife. She often walks in front of her wife. I wonder what the Empress wants to ask about?"
Lu Mingyu looked at Mrs. Gao quietly with his eyebrows.
Seeing that Mrs. Gao was cautious in speaking, she did not be aggressive to the old lady who was over fifty years old, and slowly explained the reason for summoning her to the mansion today.
"Princess Xiangning bribed the wet nurse with an intention to harm Princess Zhenli, the wife of Duke Yue. This matter..."
Lu Mingyu deliberately paused and showed a shallow smile: "I just learned about this."
"It may not take long. My highness and brother who are on duty in the palace will know, so while the matter is not overwhelming, I will talk to my wife first."
Mrs. Gao nervously squeezed the veil: "Empress, my wife doesn't understand."
Lu Mingyu sighed softly: "Just today, my sister went to Fu Princess Xiangning to find Princess Xiangning. The trouble was a little unpleasant and alarmed Prince Fu."
"Mrs. Must know that such a big thing happened to Prince Fu's mansion and Prince Fu's health is not very good, so naturally there is no way to end this matter."
"So I guess this matter has to be disturbed by the Shangshu Mansion. Lord Shangshu has worked diligently and diligently all his life, which is obvious to everyone."
"In a small way, this is just a dispute between Xiangning and Zhenli. In a big way, it is about the Duke of Yue, Taishu Mansion, the Grand Princess Mansion and Princess Xiangning."
Speaking of this, Lu Mingyu did not continue to say anything.
Her attitude was very clear. If this matter was good, it was only a matter between the two princesses, but if the matter was big, it would be a matter between several palaces and one princess.
They will not bully others with power and will oppose all those related to Princess Xiangning, but Princess Xiangning will be unable to escape the pursuit of several governments.
The Minister of War will work hard all his life, and he cannot ruin his reputation for the rest of his life because of this.
Seeing Mrs. Wang's expression changing, Lu Mingyu asked softly: "Madam, what do you think?"
This made Mrs. Wang difficult. What was going on? She looked dark and didn't know anything.
If Xiangning is really wrong, if she protects her, she will involve the Shangshu Mansion in this matter. After all, they are ministers, so how can they have the ability to fight against the crown prince and the powerful ministers?
But if Zhenli is wrong, she will have to protect her granddaughter. No matter who the other party is, she cannot make her beloved granddaughter wronged.
Finally, she had to answer in a proper manner: "Empress, if Xiangning is wrong, if he violates the national law, he will use the national law to deal with it. If he violates the family law, I will ask Prince Fu's concubine to discipline her and never let any party be in abdicated."
After hearing this, Lu Mingyu was basically sure that Mrs. Gao was extremely protective of her shortcomings.
Upon hearing this, she smiled slightly: "Madam Gao is really wise. Seeing that Madam Gao is so wise, I can rest assured."
Mrs. Gao was shocked and wondered what Lu Mingyu was selling in her gourd.
She thought that such an answer would anger Tai Shufei, and she was also ready to be questioned, but she did not expect that Tai Shufei was like her, saying something like her, saying something that sounded good but was actually useless.
This made her increasingly unable to understand the purpose of Tai Shufei.
The more suspicious she was, the more fear she became.
In the end, she had to kneel in front of Lu Mingyu tremblingly: "Empress, my wife is completely unaware of the matter between Xiangning and Princess Zhenli. What should my wife do? I would like to ask the empress to instruct me."
Lu Mingyu's smile did not change, but Lu Yi quickly helped Mrs. Gao up.
Lu Yi said respectfully: "Madam, it's not that we Empress don't make things clear, but that this fact is hard to say."
"The Empress has always been generous and kind, so she naturally would not do anything like using power to suppress others. She invited her wife to come over, and she also wanted to solve the problem."
Mrs. Gao didn't believe Lu Yi's words. Seeing that Lu Mingyu did not express her opinion, she was scared and sweated: "Empress, my wife must cooperate with her with all her strength."
Seeing that the time was almost done, Lu Mingyu directly got to the point: "I'll just say that I'm looking for Mrs. Gao today."
Mrs. Gao waited for instructions tremblingly.
Lu Mingyu spoke slowly: "If it weren't for the fact that people and physical evidence were all in place, I wouldn't have come rashly to ask Mrs. Gao. Xiangning could have done this."
"I believe that I don't need to say anything about Xiangning and the princess. Mrs. Gao also knows it clearly. After being scolded by Grandpa Fu, they must have to find a wife and an adult to make decisions."
"Your Majesty is seriously ill now, and the court still needs the Lord. Please ask Mrs. Gao and Lord Gao to speak carefully, don't be distracted by such matters and add trouble to the Lord of the Superintendent."
"Because of Your Majesty's affairs, people are now in panic, which affects the bad state affairs. The suspicion of being a Duke of the Court is even worse with the assassination of Your Majesty."
After saying that, Lu Mingyu slowly stood up: "I am tired, so I won't leave Mrs. Gao."
Mrs. Gao was still nervous about Lu Mingyu's words. Seeing Lu Mingyu say he should take him off, she subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, but then her whole heart was tense tightly.
The Tai Shufei clearly wanted to protect her shortcomings, but no sentence showed the meaning of protecting her shortcomings. When these words were heard, they did not leave any traces of words.
But she knew that if she didn't take these words seriously, the consequences would be serious.
It was also the Tai Shu Concubine who gave them face, so she called her over to say these things. Although the words were threatening, they were already considered extremely tactful.
