"I heard you were back just as I left the house! Where have you been?"

Lu Yun arrived in front of the carriage with a smile on his face. As he spoke, he reached out to lift the curtain. But Chonghua walked out without leaving a trace and stopped him: "Prince Jing'an, please forgive me. Our prince had an accident just now and is feeling a little unwell."

Lu Yun's smile froze: "There was an accident? What happened? Is the injury serious? Did you call a doctor?"

Lu Zhan looked at Lu Yun silently through the thin window screen.

He, the third brother, is always the most impatient one. I heard in this life that he didn't come back. He was the one who was ambushing under the city gate. When I received the news that he was seriously injured, I couldn't help but was the first one to run out.

It was him, and it was also him who framed him by drinking soybean powder in the emperor's wine during his wedding in his previous life.

On the eve of the wedding, because Lu Zhan did not accept the marriage and had a temper with the emperor, he did not even have a chance to defend himself when something happened that night, so he was sent to camp. The first thing he did after coming back was to give himself

Rehabilitate.

Obviously, there were only a few people who could attack the palace. He invited the guards in the palace to come out for a drink in the middle of the night. After about half a month, some people couldn't bear it anymore. How did Ye Luyun instruct them?

The person took advantage of the wedding banquet to tell the truth that he had tampered with the wine.

Since the eldest son born to the princess died in infancy, Anhui King Lu Yao was actually the eldest son in the palace, and Lu Zhan was the last. Although the de facto eldest son Lu Yao did not get the title of heir apparent, he still received a lot of attention.

On the contrary, Lu Yun was ranked in the middle. He neither received the attention of his eldest son Lu Yao nor Lu Zhan who became the legitimate son and inherited the title. He was the least glorious among the three imperial grandsons.

Lu Yun's tactics were actually not superb, but he couldn't stand his timing well.

Although the emperor had never met Song Xiang, he thought that King Jin's proposal of repaying a drop of kindness with a spring was very reasonable. However, King Jin thought that the palace had already won great favor, and Song Xiang's status as a civilian would help him get rid of a lot of people.

Hidden enemy, and a gentleman's words are hard to follow, Song Xiang is a girl who is low-key and restrained, very good, so there is no reason for him to regret the imperial edict of marriage.

Under such circumstances, Lu Zhan's dissatisfaction with the marriage had already angered both his grandfather and father. At this time, let alone his chin, if he made any mistakes and the emperor caught him, he would not be able to reap the benefits.

It's a pity that he was young and frivolous and couldn't understand this truth, so he fell into the trap blindly and willfully.

Lu Zhan withdrew his gaze and concentrated for a moment. When he looked out the window again, Lu Yun's face was even more anxious, and he was making arrangements to hire an imperial doctor for him.

The carriage took only two quarters of an hour from the city gate to the palace. Lu Yun had already received the news. The key point was that the distance from Yanfu Palace where Lu Yun lived to the Great Shadow Wall was not short. It would take less than half an hour to walk on weekdays.

, his speed is really fast.

We have been brothers for more than ten years. I think he is not angry that he, a bastard, can become the heir, not just in one day or two.

In my previous life, when I first served the emperor, I might not be able to do everything right. If Lu Yun hadn't been particularly skillful, then he would have been aware of it when he was doing things in Xingping County.

After all, it was too coincidental that the horse lost control when he had no followers following him.

But right now he doesn't want to alert others.

Although he learned the real murderer from the guards in his previous life, he was still impulsive that time and directly took the guards to see King Jin.

King Jin was so angry that he turned pale on the spot. Except for the title given to Lu Yun by the imperial court, which could not be touched, all the others that King Jin, as a father, had the means to deal with, were dealt with, including imprisoning him in the northeast corner of the palace in the name of recovering from his injuries.

, and ordered him never to take a step out of the palace - until Lu Zhan was demoted, Lu Yun did not even take a step out of the palace.

But they are also the sons of King Jin, and Lu Zhan believes that they are all very important to King Jin.

Perhaps because King Jin loved Princess Jin deeply and he was the eldest son of King Jin's palace, his father treated Lu Zhan differently, but this did not mean that he could directly force him to Chengyun Hall with a witness to treat his father.

Deal with your own son with your own hands.

He should be able to handle it more tactfully, so as to achieve the purpose of revenge without making his father stand down.

After that, although King Jin cared for him as before and did not anger him because of this incident, but one night, he bumped into him drinking alone under the moon and getting drunk.

His father vaguely mistook him for the royal palace chief, and told him that if all children were born, they should either be born to the same mother, or only one, otherwise they would not be able to kill each other.

That was the first time in his life that he personally experienced the destructive power of lust for power, and it was also the first time that he saw his immature way of life through his father's heartache.

"Your Majesty, the sedan is here."

Lu Zhan lowered his eyes, glanced at Lu Yun who was still standing outside the car, and motioned to open the door.

Lu Yun came to help him. When he saw the blood on his chest and abdomen, he was shocked and said: "Where was this injury? Why are you so careless? - Quick! Help him get on the sedan!"

The eunuchs all rushed up and moved Lu Zhan to the soft sedan chair.

Lu Yun saw Lu Zhan frowning and comforted him: "I have already sent someone to visit the imperial doctor, please bear with me any longer!"

Lu Zhan hummed, and when he got up from the sedan chair, he lowered his head and saw a trace of dust on Lu Yun's collar.

He didn't even change his clothes, so he came in a hurry.

Such an impatient and restless person could plan to kill him in the palace. How could he raise hundreds of killers within a few years without anyone noticing?

If he had such meticulous thoughts in plotting to kill him, how could he let a young man like him find out the truth and end up being retaliated against?

The soft sedan went directly into Yanzhao Palace. The palace he saw at first glance was very different from the residence where he lived with many women, children and things when he left the capital. He felt a little dull inexplicably.

But Yanzhao Palace was soon filled with people. The maids and eunuchs came and went, taking good care of him.

Soon Mrs. Yue came with the newly six-year-old Third Princess, and then came the announcement from outside that the two concubines had also arrived one after another.

Their courteous words outside the door, their exquisite hairpins, clothes and shoes, and the gilded furniture all over the palace were in stark contrast to the deserted courtyard where Tanzhou lived.

"Anan!"

As soon as she moved to the bed, a mute voice came in, and the people under the threshold stood at attention for an instant. Then with the sound of rustling footsteps, Princess Jin hurriedly entered the palace with her skirt in hand.

"Mother concubine..."

Lu Zhan's lips pursed slightly and he couldn't look away.

"How did it happen like this?" The princess grabbed his arm, her face was a little pale, and her lowered voice was trembling. "What's going on! Who did it?"

There was pain on his shoulder from the heavy pressure of her fingers, but Lu Zhan obediently did not move.

This noble princess from a noble family is not his biological mother, he has known this since he was a child.

But since he was born, she has been raising him with her own hands.

It was she who said over and over again that marriage is not a child's play, you must be true to your heart and find someone you like for the rest of your life to be worthy of yourself.

She was also the one who taught him from an early age to be wary of everyone, telling him that Tian family are also human beings, and of course they have emotions and desires, but not everyone values ​​family affection and kindness as more important than profit...

It was she who made him confident since he was a child, and he didn't know what it meant to be a lowly person and a submissive person. It was she who made him never shy about talking about his origins, and it was she who made him learn all his skills.

It was she who personally carried his two brothers into the palace before they were three years old before they met Tianyan, and delivered them to the emperor, telling him that he was the legitimate son she had raised.

The emperor fell in love with him at the first sight when he was only one year old. Later, the emperor cultivated him in many ways and even gave him tasks in private.

"Mother……"
