"grandmother!"

Lu Jing knelt down, his eyes red, "It's my grandson who is unfilial and has caused you trouble."

"But... my grandson doesn't want to..."

Lu Jingting had been pampered since he was a child. He really couldn't imagine how an ordinary citizen would survive when he had to work hard for three meals a day and it was not easy to even get a piece of meat.

He knew that he didn't want to suffer this hardship, and he didn't want to lose his noble status as the Prince of Zhennan.

"Haha," the old lady smiled weakly, "You want to pursue true love under the moonlight, and you also want to occupy the title and be irresponsible. Where in the world can such a good thing happen?"

"Grandma, my grandson...I know I'm wrong." Lu Jingting spoke with difficulty. After everything that happened in the past few days, he knew that he was extremely wrong.

"You know you're wrong? So what?" The old lady glanced at the unconscious Lin Wan'er and said helplessly, "The three of them, mother and son, have always been a gap between you and Yun Xi. If you had just spared the mother and son from the beginning, or simply given them some money and sent them away, it would have been easier."

"Now we are in a dilemma. Even though we know we are wrong, what can we do?"

Lu Jingting looked deeply at Lin Wan'er, whose eyes were tightly closed, and replied, "Grandma, can you please give me some more time?"

The old lady waved her hand without commenting, "You should get up first. Your grandfather will also be returning to Beijing soon. I hope you can make it in time."

"Thank you for your consideration, Grandma."

"Yun Xi won't teach Ze Ge'er and Yuan Jie'er anymore, what are you going to do?"

"That's nothing. A few days ago, someone recommended a gentleman to my grandson. He is also quite talented and is willing to come to the mansion to be a teacher."

"Really? Don't be a liar."

"No, grandma." Lu Jingting said with certainty. The person who introduced it must be correct.

"Then please come, let Zege learn from you."

"Don't worry, grandma. I will discipline Ze'er later and make him respect his teacher in the future. He should not be naughty and lazy anymore. I don't ask him to be talented in the future, but at least he should not be a 'blind man'."

"As for Sister Yuan, I'll have to trouble Grandmother to find a nanny who has left the palace to teach her etiquette, rules, needlework, and so on."

Upon hearing this, the old lady looked up at Lu Jingting and thought: With such low demands, are you going to give up on Ze Ge'er and Yuan Jie?

That’s good too. It would be even better if Yun Xi and I had a real son and daughter in the future.

The grandfather and grandson looked at each other tacitly, which determined the future of Lu Ze and Lu Yuan.

Lin Wan'er lay on the ground, gritting her teeth tightly, not daring to make a sound.

"Take Lin Wan'er away. She's an eyesore lying here." The old lady glanced at her coldly, not disguising her contempt. Her eyes were like knives, piercing Lin Wan'er's body and making it cold all over.

Lu Jingting stood there without moving, with a gloomy look in his eyes. He called in Nanny Li and Yuanyang in a deep voice and asked them to help Lin Wan'er back to the room.

The old lady looked on coldly without saying a word.

Xiao Yunxi returned to Feiyu Pavilion, changed her clothes, and talked with Lu Zhan while having a meal.

"What do you think about what happened in Shou'an Hall?"

"Mother, you...have worked hard..."

Xiao Yunxi was stunned when she heard this. From her previous life until her death, no one in the palace sympathized with her hard work. There was only resentment and deception.

Seeing the pain in Lu Zhan's eyes, she smiled gently: "Being my eldest son, it will be very hard to learn and live in front of me. Aren't you afraid?"

"My son is never afraid of hardship. He hopes to be like his mother, well-educated, good at calligraphy, and become a leader in the literary world in the future!"

Lu Zhan looked at Xiao Yunxi with eyes full of admiration, and secretly swore in his heart that he must make a name for himself and bring honor to his mother!

Xiao Yunxi smiled, "Okay!"

The mother and son were eating happily when they heard a noise outside.

Chunxiao went out to take a look, and when she came back she couldn't stop smiling, "Princess, the old people in the Jingxi manor are making a fuss, crying and shouting for the old lady to give an explanation. Now the old lady and the prince are rushing to the study in the front yard."

"I heard from the maids that the old men cursed very badly," Chun Xiao took a breath and continued, "What a bullshit guest cousin, she is just a bed-climbing slave! What a shameless prince, he bullied the disabled soldiers for a bitch. He even said he was going to hang himself on the city gate tower."

Seeing Lu Zhan's confused face, Xia He immediately scolded: "You can be happy if you are happy, Brother Zhan is still here, how dare you say anything."

"Aunt Xia He is fine," Lu Zhan said in a low voice with a red face, "Don't listen to anything indecent. I didn't hear anything."

After saying that, he covered his ears.

Looking at Lu Zhan's cute appearance, Xiao Yunxi and the two maids all smiled.

Xiao Yunxi thought for a moment and said, "Just wait. The old lady will send someone sooner or later."

Chun Xiao: "As the old lady has always been a good person for the sake of reputation, she must be waiting for you to take the initiative to be the bad guy and deal with those old people. In my opinion, if you don't go, it will make the Zhennan Palace lose face!"

Xiao Yunxi looked at Lu Zhan and said, "Lu Jingting's reputation can be ruined, but the reputation of the Zhennan Palace cannot."

The study in the front yard was in a mess.

A group of elderly men were crying and cursing, questioning the old lady so hard that she couldn't utter a word.

Seeing that Lu Jingting's face was getting uglier and uglier, Butler Chen had no choice but to stand up and shout, "Gentlemen, please be quiet. The old lady and the prince are here. You can't solve any problems by making such a noise."

When Zhang San heard this, he raised his hand, and the crying people immediately quieted down.

The old lady let out a long sigh and asked doubtfully, "Why is this life or death?"

Zhang San glanced at Lu Jingting with disdain and told the old lady the whole story. At the end, he said, "If the old prince and the old lady think we are a burden, just say so. We will get out right away, begging for food or hanging ourselves on the city gate tower. At least we won't cost the palace a penny!"

Although the others didn't say anything, they all stood behind Zhang San.

The old lady's face was so gloomy that it was unbearable to look at, and she stared at Lu Jingting.

He raised Lin Wan'er in the mansion as a young lady and reduced the expenses of the old soldiers, leaving them without even medicine. If this were to get out, the backbone of the Zhennan Palace would be broken!

She suppressed her anger and forced a smile, "How is this possible? Jing Ting has been in the army for a long time and has great respect for you all. It must be someone under you who is playing tricks!"

"Please be patient. The princess has always been in charge of the house. I will call her over and investigate what the misunderstanding is!"

"Grandma! This is indeed the decision of my grandson!"

The old lady pointed at Lu Jingting angrily and was so angry that she couldn't speak.
