"All these 'what ifs' are useless. You can't make decisions for your father, and he won't necessarily listen to you anyway." Song Yunzhao thought she was speaking honestly, but seeing Lu Zhixue actually start to cry, she quickly added, "But it's not like there's nothing we can do."
Lu Zhixue's eyes lit up. She stared at Song Yunzhao and asked, "What is it?"
Although her father was a Minister, what did that count for before the Left and Right Ministers? If the Right Minister truly wanted a scapegoat, the Right Assistant Prime Minister and her father were the most suitable candidates.
If something happened to her father, what would become of their large family? Her own days in the palace would become even more difficult.
"Just have Lord Lu state his position and support the court in thoroughly investigating this matter."
Lu Zhixue almost choked. That was easier said than done.
