??Chapter 325 Be a trash can
?? Seeing her like this, Xu Shulou suddenly didn't want to talk.
?? looked at her with some disgust.
??Lu Jingzhi: "...You have to say it yourself, why do you look at me like that, I'm not here to listen to gossip, I just want to solve your problems."
?? "Then I really thank you." Xu Shulou tried his best to calm down.
"You're welcome."
??Xu Shulou looked at her fixedly, and the other party smiled back.
"The concubine of my father's family became an official by himself. The official position is not big, but he is very satisfied. The Xu family has been officials for generations, and the official career is prosperous, but there are not many members in the family, and they all died very early. The year I was born , there are only three of us left in the Xu family."
?? "In the imperial capital, the nobles are also divided into three, six or nine classes. Obviously, the Xu family is the last class."
?? "But the emperor valued the Xu family very much. Since I was born, my father has been on the rise."
?? "I don't remember when he died."
?? "It is said that he is too busy and has to do everything by himself. His health is not very good, and he is even more busy after being promoted."
?? "After his death, the Bai family wanted to take the opportunity to annex the Xu family, but they were not good enough. In less than two years, my mother took over the power. She took the two major family properties as a dowry and brought me to marry the Shen family."
?? "That is a scholarly family from the south of the Yangtze River. They respect the smell of copper at a distance. That's why they are not good at managing money. Their ancestors were rich and they have been living on their laurels. This generation can no longer afford food and clothing."
?? "It's easy to go from frugal to extravagant, and it's hard to go from extravagant to frugal. Oh, my mother is very good at restraining people's hearts."
??Lu Jingzhi asked the question that she had been wondering for a long time, "Why did your mother want to kill you?"
"It's not killing, it's hunting, it's taking me home and locking me up. After I went back last year, I was locked up for half a year. She hoped that I would compromise and follow the path she provided. When I become an official, the official position should be high. Gather people's hearts and dominate the situation." Xu Shulou curled his lips.
??Lu Jingzhi pondered for a moment, and said surprisingly, "Doesn't your mother want to become emperor?"
??Xu Shulou: "..."
?? Half of the hazy sleepiness flew away.
?? "Or do you want to make you the emperor and her the empress dowager?" Lu Jingzhi murmured, "So handsome."
??Xu Shulou: "...What are you thinking about?"
?? She thought of an important thing.
??The emperor is Xiaoshen's father.
??Then the problem is a bit serious.
?? "She has a favorite candidate for the prince. She wants him to be chosen as the prince, and hopes that he will become the emperor." Xu Shulou said, "It's Yan Qingzhui, my cousin."
?? With a little effort, he could find out this series of relationships from his identity in the Bai family, so Xu Shulou didn't even think about hiding it.
??He looked at the little girl's expression.
?? Looks well received.
?? "Do you have any idea about my cousin being the prince?"
?? "Can all princes look so good-looking?"
?? "...are you dreaming?"
?? "Oh, that's lucky."
?? Xu Shulou didn't ask what was fortunately.
??He didn't think he wanted to hear such a nonsensical answer.
"You are talking and listening to gossip, but your curiosity is not as strong as I thought." Xu Shulou looked at her with scrutiny, and just for a moment, the lazy and boneless girl immediately glanced over sharply, and then returned to her original state, " Don't look at me like that, it will trigger my defense mechanism."
??Without malice.
?? There is no hostility either.
?? But this look makes her uncomfortable.
"My curiosity is as heavy as normal." It's not as heavy as my mother and sister. It's okay to listen to some, and it's okay to listen to nothing. What she said is true. She is helping to adjust Xu Shulou's mentality. .
??He seems to be on the verge of collapse.
??There is no psychiatrist here.
??She can barely be an emotional trash can.
