If I were born again, I would marry a strong but short-lived husband.

Fu Jinyi howled angrily for a long time, and finally sat back angrily.

"I have already refused on behalf of the prince." Lord Zhuo was still filled with righteous indignation.

"That widowed princess dreamed of becoming the Crown Princess. The Yong Dynasty really went too far."

Fu Jinyi waved his hand and said, "I know about this matter, Master Zhuo, you can go and do your work."

"Your Highness, you and Commander Lu... seem to be very familiar with each other?" Lord Zhuo lifted his buttocks and sat back down.

"We are all relatives, so of course we are familiar with each other." Fu Jinyi said.

Lord Zhuo coughed lightly, "I also heard that Commander Lu is not the Lu family's biological child, but was adopted by the Lu family from outside?"

When he learned that Lu Yuan's background was unknown, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep the whole night.

Considering the closeness between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lu Yuan, he felt that his guess was absolutely true.

"This is not a secret. Do you need Lord Zhuo to find out in person?" Any commoner in Shangjing City would know the secret.

Lord Zhuo hesitated to speak and wanted to ask several times.

Is Lu Yuan the Queen's biological son?

"Your Highness, every time I see Commander Lu, I feel that he looks very familiar, as if I have seen him somewhere before." Lord Zhuo said in a low voice.

Fu Jinyi glanced over, his peach blossom eyes smiling, "Really? I feel the same way."

"I think Commander Lu looks like Your Majesty." Lord Zhuo said immediately.

"Now that you mention it, it does look a bit like it." Fu Jinyi nodded.

Lord Zhuo was so excited, "Your Highness, you are young and may not know that the Queen gave birth to a prince before you. I suspect he is Commander Lu."

Fu Jinyi was stunned. He didn't expect that Lord Zhuo had guessed that Lu Yuan was his father's son after only meeting him a few times.

If other officials of the Southern Dynasty saw this, they would definitely have the same idea as Lord Zhuo.

"Lord Zhuo, my father said that my brother died shortly after he was born." Fu Jinyi said.

“Your Highness, actually there was a rumor circulating in the palace that the prince did not die young, but…” Lord Zhuo hesitated.

That year, he heard that the emperor suspected that the eldest son had unknown origins, so he wanted to kill him secretly.

Now that I meet Lu Yuan, it is obvious that what I said back then was wrong.

I'm afraid the Emperor couldn't tolerate Queen Ruan giving birth to a prince, so he wanted to kill her.

"Lord Zhuo, we should not talk about things that are not confirmed," Fu Jinyi said.

Lord Zhuo: "Yes, but let's make a bold assumption. If Commander Lu is really your brother, it would be a good thing for your Highness."

"Then Lord Zhuo, please find a way to verify it." Fu Jinyi looked at him with a smile, "Commander Lu will escort me back to the Southern Dynasty."

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will find a way," said Lord Zhuo.

"There is one more thing. If Yong Chao insists on the marriage, then..."

Fu Jinyi frowned, "Didn't He Jingyao ask for a marriage for my father? I think my father's harem is still too quiet."

Lord Zhuo: "I understand."

……

……

Shen Sui'an heard about the marriage from Lu Yuan.

"Yongning won't agree. She was very angry last time because of the marriage." Shen Suian said.

Lu Yuan: "The emperor won't allow it either."

For the first time, Shen Sui'an felt sympathy for Yongning. "She is already a widow, and she can't decide how to live the rest of her life."

The queen actually still hasn't given up. Even though the emperor has made it so obvious, she still thinks that the fifth prince will become the crown prince.

"Yongning is a smart person. She knows how to make choices." Lu Yuan said lightly.

Regarding the fact that Yongning had used him to play a game with the emperor last time, Lu Yuan just felt that it would be best to stay away from this woman.

"The emperor left Xie Changyu in Shangjing and appointed him as the commander of the imperial guards." Lu Yuan said in a low voice.

She changed the fate of the Xie family, but did not change Xie Changyu's decision to give up writing and join the army.

"My grandfather said that if Xie Changyu passed the imperial examination and entered the government, he would definitely become a cabinet minister in the future."

Lu Yuan: "This is Xie Changyu's choice. Whether he is a civil servant or a military officer, he is here to defend his country."

Shen Sui'an chuckled: "I am narrow-minded."

"By the way, my aunt came today and she said that the Lu family went in the direction of Nanling."

Lu Yuan: "The old man is a smart man. He knows that we should stay away from him at this time."

Although being demoted to a pariah could save their lives, if they did not leave Shangjing, the Emperor and Concubine Yao would vent their anger on them as long as they remembered the crimes Guangning had suffered.

"The first wife has done a lot of harm to people." Shen Sui'an said coldly.

Lu Yuan said in a deep voice, "She is a ruthless and sinister person. When I go to the Southern Dynasty, you must take Fuqiu and Ningshuang with you when you go out."

"Don't believe any news about me casually. Don't believe what others say except the handwritten letter I give you."

Shen Sui'an thought about his early death in his previous life.

Her heart tightened, and she hugged him subconsciously, "You...you come with me to the clinic to see Doctor Zhou first."

Lu Yuan laughed.

"Sui Sui, I have rarely been sick since I was a child."

Shen Sui'an turned around and glared at him, "You were poisoned by the first wife and you didn't even know it. Anyway, you need Doctor Zhou to examine you carefully."

Lu Yuan heard the worry and fear in her tone, so he stopped refusing and let her hold his hand and go to the clinic.

Zhou Zhou accompanied Cheng Zhiyun for a walk in the backyard. Recently, Cheng Zhiyun was pregnant and needed to walk more.

When he heard that Shen Suian brought Lu Yuan to take his pulse, he was still a little unhappy.

"What? Were you drugged again?" Zhou Zhou snorted.

Lu Yuan's face darkened, "You can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth."

"Can you spit out ivory?" Zhou Zhou raised his eyebrows, "I want to see it."

"Doctor Zhou, he is going on a long journey. Please take his pulse carefully to make sure he has no hidden illness." Shen Sui'an said.

Zhou Zhou said, "Looking at his appearance, he won't die young. What are you afraid of?"

Shen Sui'an's face turned slightly pale.

She was just afraid that he would die young.

Seeing that she looked strange, Zhou Zhou wondered if Lu Yuan really had some hidden illness.

Cheng Zhiyun: "Go sit inside first and let Zhou Zhou take the commander's pulse."

Shen Sui'an held Lu Yuan's hand tightly, and looked at him with a pair of crystal-clear eyes tremblingly.

"Don't worry." Lu Yuan whispered.

Zhou Zhou motioned to Lu Yuan to stretch out his hand.

He took his pulse carefully.

This pulse...

Healthier than him!

Zhou Zhou glanced at Shen Sui'an and saw that she still looked worried. Could it be that Lu Yuan really had an unknown illness?

"Where do you usually feel uncomfortable?"

Lu Yuan: “No.”

Zhou Zhou silently withdrew his hand, "My medical skills are limited. I can't tell what's wrong with Commander Lu without a pulse."

Shen Sui'an: "That's good. Then give him some more Jinshenyao Jiedu Pills and let him carry them with him."

"..." Zhou Zhou looked at Shen Suian expressionlessly.

He didn't think Lu Yuan was that fragile, he was just going on a long journey.

Lu Yuan said with a smile: "The Zhenfu Division has all of these. I will take them with me."

Shen Sui'an: "It's always better to bring more."

"Okay, it's up to you."

Zhou Zhou said coldly, "If there is nothing else, you can go back."

Affects their time alone as a couple.
