After my rebirth, I became the white moonlight in the Beijing circle

Lu Chen looked at him solemnly, and after a long while he slowly said, "Because he is your flesh and blood brother, a twin born on the same day as you."

"He is my biological brother?"

Lu Linchu was stunned, as if he heard a bolt of thunder from the blue.

"Back then, my father had just been crowned king and was entrusted by Emperor Taizu of the Great Kang Dynasty to guard the southern border, but he was feared and disliked by the Li royal family and the Prime Minister."

Lu Chen said in a weak voice: "Your mother and the concubines in the mansion have always had difficulty in having children, and your father has often encountered assassination attempts. On the day you and Lin Zhi were born, your fourth aunt happened to give birth to a stillborn baby."

"While your father and your mother are delighted that you two brothers were born safely, we are also worried that you will be harmed by villains again, so we decided to secretly bring Lin Zhi to your fourth aunt's house and have him raised by her and her husband. This will not only alleviate their pain of losing a son, but also preserve the bloodline for our second branch. In case something happens to him..."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Linchu's face was already full of anger: "So my father and mother were so cruel that they let me live in fear for these years, under the eyes of those treacherous people."

Lu Linchu felt particularly bad when he thought about how he had almost been assassinated many times when he was young.

It turned out that his father and mother had always favored the fourth child, allowing him to live a carefree and happy life, but making him live in deep fear every moment.

If he wasn't strong enough, he wouldn't know how many times he had died.

"Your father knows that you have suffered a lot since you were young because you were in danger, but the Lu family gave you everything. Lin Zhi never competed with you for it, and even Gui Yun became your Crown Princess."

Lu Chen choked up and said, "Linchu, your mother has been crying for so many days and nights these years. She really wants to recognize Linzhi and hopes you can accept him. Your father is leaving soon. You must not make your mother sad again. She died once because of Du Jiuniang. Do you want her to die again because of Linzhi?"

He felt that he had done nothing wrong in his life, but the only thing he had failed was the Queen. He made her look at her own biological son every day but not be able to recognize him. How could he not understand such sadness?

But there is no reason to change the decision that has been made. When Emperor Hui was alive, his prevention and persecution of the Lu family was pervasive. Although Daning has now been founded, there are still many forces that are ready to overthrow the Lu family. He cannot give others an opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity to plot against the Lu family and split the territory of Daning.

Thinking of his mother who had been tormented by illness over the years, Lu Linchu couldn't help but feel a wave of pain in his heart. Today he had hurt his father again, which made him even more at a loss as to what to do.

He seemed to have been angry with him in the past few years. The only thing that made him happy was the bandit suppression incident, but that was like a flash in the pan. Since then, he and his father had a rift because of Jiu Niang. If Emperor Hui had not summoned him to the capital, he was afraid that he would have been estranged from his father for the rest of his life.

Now he was going to die in his own hands. How could he return to Liyang and face his mother?

"Father, please don't say anything. I will send someone to take you back."

Lu Linchu choked up and said, "You have been at the frontline for more than a year. Your mother must be worried about you. I will send you back. From now on, you and your mother will never be separated again."

Lu Chen saw that this evil creature was still unwilling to let Lin Zhi go, and said sternly: "The world is not settled yet, and Dayan is still eyeing us covetously. Do you really want to be charged with the crime of patricide and brother homicide, and be infamous for eternity, and let the whole of Daning be destroyed by you?"

Lu Linchu's heart was shaking with anger. His father was willing to risk his life to protect the fourth son.

If he were allowed to return to his fiefdom, this man would definitely become a thorn in his side.

"My father has ordered Prince Li to come and discuss the attack on Dayan."

Lu Chen added: "If you want the world, stop immediately. If you only want to save your brother's life and cause chaos in the world, then your father will also grant your wish."

"Lu Linfeng has also come to Wengcheng?"

Lu Linchu felt more and more confused.

My father is so cruel that he wants to cause chaos in the world just for the sake of his fourth son.

If I don't agree to my father's request at this time, when Lu Linfeng comes, he will definitely rebel on the pretext of my patricide. In this way, even if I kill the fourth brother, I will only end up being deserted by everyone.

When the time comes, how will he go back and face Guiyun and his family?

Lu Chen noticed that he had some reservations, and said sternly: "Hurry up and clean up this place, and go with your father to welcome Prince Zhong and Prince Li."

Lu Linchu clenched his teeth and hesitated.

Just then, the servant came hurriedly to report.

"Your Highness, Prince Zhong has led the delegation to the shore and is about to disembark."

"Your Highness, Prince Li and Princess Zhaoyang have led a hundred thousand troops from Jiurong City to the outskirts of Jizhou City. They have sent a special letter to request an audience with Your Majesty."

The father and son looked at each other. Lu Chen knew he had no choice, so he pleaded, "Let Lin Zhi escort my father's coffin back to Liyang, and you can unite the troops of Jiurong and Jinyang to attack Dayan, and give him a place in Jiangzuo."

Seeing that his father had no strength left, Lu Linchu had no choice but to grit his teeth and compromise. He immediately shouted to the soldiers in the distance: "Protect His Majesty to welcome Prince Zhong and Prince Li into the city."

In just a moment, the land that was originally stained with blood was immediately cleaned up. The surviving royal guards were shot to death by arrows and were transported to a secret place together with Lu Yuan and the dead guards for disposal.

Lu Chen felt heartbroken, but he had to pretend nothing had happened and was supported by this evil creature as he slowly walked towards Jizhou City.

Due to heavy fog, visibility on the river was too low, so Lu Linzhi stopped the fleet on the river for a day before continuing on its journey.

But when he arrived at Jizhou Port, he followed the pre-arranged plan and asked the Liren Gang to protect everyone and prepare for the charge. Only then did he find that there was no ambush in the entire port. There were only the eunuch who announced the decree and Lu Linxue, who said that His Majesty had come to Jizhou in person to greet him and invite him into the city.

Lu Linzhi didn't trust others, but he had complete faith in Princess Zhaoyang. When he learned from her that Prince Li had led a large army to Jizhou, he guessed that His Majesty must have deliberately transferred Prince Li to the front line in order to restrain the Crown Prince and rescue himself.

But he was a little confused. The Crown Prince was so wary of him, but a Prince of Li should not scare him so much that he would give up setting an ambush for him.

Although His Majesty has been sidelined by the Crown Prince, he has always had the overall situation in mind and puts the overall situation first in everything. He will never transfer the ambitious Prince Li to Jizhou just to save himself.

Unless he has persuasive enough means to make the prince continue to obey him and prevent Lu Linfeng from acting rashly.

He was filled with confusion. For the first time in his life, reality was so different from what he expected.

What means did Your Majesty use to prevent this mutiny?

He couldn't believe that the prince would be kind to him.
