Chapter 2621: Vowed to Destroy the Lu FamilyWho knew how long this period of prosperity would last?
Lu Junning had vowed to destroy the Lu family. In her previous life, after the Third Prince ascended to the throne, the Lu family flourished and became immensely wealthy, even producing two empresses.
However, Lu Junning’s maternal family suffered complete annihilation. Even infants were killed in their cradles.
The evidence of colluding with enemies and betraying the country was provided by none other than Lu Yuanfan.
Therefore, Lu Junning would not spare the Lu family.
Her intention was to gradually undermine them.
Ning Shu understood why the scumbag did what he did though. The general’s residence held significant military power, which was something that worried the emperor greatly.
A narrow bed would not allow the peaceful sleep of two, so the emperor had to be constantly vigilant against rebellion. The slightest mistake and the throne beneath his butt would be lost.

This was politics—kinship meant nothing when it came to profits. When everyone benefited together, they held hands as good friends.
But when those interests clashed, they abandoned each other without hesitation.
Lu Yuanfan knew that the Emperor harbored dissatisfaction towards his wife’s parents’ family. If anything were to happen at the general’s residence, the entire Lu Family would also be implicated.
Yuan Xiang failed to grasp what Ning Shu meant by false prosperity.
She poured another cup of tea for Ning Shu and stood by as she embroidered flowers diligently.
“Miss’ embroidery skills are truly improving,” complimented Yuan Xiang sincerely.
Ning Shu held up her embroidery piece and examined it from different angles before nodding approvingly. “It is pretty good! I’m so amazing! Hahaha…”
Occasionally, Lu Yujing paid visits. Ning Shu saw that she always wore some exquisite-looking jewelry.
Her clothes were also of higher quality than before.
Ning Shu raised an eyebrow. Were these items also part of the dowry left behind by her mother?
She couldn’t be bothered to inquire about where Lu Yujing obtained these things though. Lately, Lu Yujing had been growing closer to Lu Junning.
What was Lu Junning up to?
Ning Shu turned towards Lu Yujing and began to speak, “You…”
“What’s the matter?” asked Lu Yujing, holding a calligraphy brush in her hand. The intricately designed silver bracelet on her wrist caught Ning Shu’s attention.
Originally, Ning Shu wanted to warn Lu Yujing to be cautious but struggled with finding the right words. Should she directly say, “Be careful of Lu Junning?”
People often have their own hidden agendas; who knew if Lu Yujing would disclose everything to Lu Junning?
During their last encounter at Tiantai Temple, Ning Shu sensed that Lu Junning harbored suspicion towards her, but she lacked concrete evidence linking it to her actions.

“It’s nothing. You wrote this character wrong,” Ning Shu remarked lightly.
“I did? No, it’s right, isn’t it?”
Ning Shu continued embroidering. Lu Yujing asked, “Third Sister, have you seen His Highness Prince Chen?”
Ning Shu made an affirmative sound. Sometimes during her walks around the courtyard, she would bump into Prince Chen. He was a truly distinguished and charming man.
Despite his lofty status, he remained devoted to Lu Junning.
But could love truly blossom merely from sleeping a round together?
Despite witnessing the affection between these two individuals on numerous occasions, Ning Su’s heart remained unaffected. What the heck?
Lu Junning still appeared indifferent towards Shen Yichen, but Ning Shu could discern that there was an illicit affair brewing between them. Passionate women were often weak to clingy men.
Was it really appropriate for this outsider male, Shen Yichen, to reside in the Lu residence?
“I have seen him,” Ning Shu replied indifferently.
