Zhou Shiyue said so blatantly that the Second Prince was not smart, which made the Second Prince very angry.

"Father, Lu Anrong is quite famous in the academy. Everyone says that he is very talented and will definitely achieve something in the future. And Lu Anfan is very good at archery and martial arts. He can also take the military examination. The two brothers, one is a scholar and the other is a warrior. Their future will not be bad."

The second prince added, "Zhao Yun is generous and gentle, well-educated and sensible. Moreover, has your father forgotten that the master once said..."

The second prince stopped here. He didn't want to tell his uncle.

Zhou Shiyue found it a little ridiculous. Wasn’t it just saying that the life of the eldest daughter of the Lu family was precious?

After being reminded, the emperor remembered this matter.

He was already very surprised that Lu Mingyou had Mr. Xianhe's small strategy paper. Maybe the Lu family would really have some good fortune at that time?

If this is true, it is not impossible to give Lu Zhaoyun the status of a concubine.

He looked at Zhou Shiyue.

Zhou Shiyue was already getting impatient with his acting, and when the emperor looked over at him, he rolled his eyes.

The emperor made up his mind instead.

"Everything else is empty talk. The main thing is to be honest. As members of the royal family, we must set an example. Lu Ming has done a great service in presenting the solitary copy, and Lu Anrong has done a great service in saving people. I will reward them handsomely and mention the marriage contract again."

Zhou Shiyue turned away in anger.

After leaving the palace, he said to Qing Feng, "Send someone to tell Lu Er that it's settled."

"Yes."

The next day, Lu Ming was called to court.

For Lu Zhima, being able to attend court was an honor. Originally, he had no chance of getting an official position. During court sessions, even if he entered the palace, he would stand at the end of the line, a long way from the main hall, and could not even see the emperor.

"This time the Emperor also allowed An Rong to enter the palace with him. It must be the efforts of those young masters whose lives were saved by An Rong!"

Lu Ming was very excited. He was almost unable to sleep last night because of excitement.

Mrs. Lu was equally excited.

"With An Rong's talent and magnanimity, if he is given a chance, he will shine in front of the emperor."

Hearing his mother's praise, Lu Anrong shook his head calmly, "Mother, I should learn from all the civil and military officials in the court. With all the adults in front of me, I am just a new seedling, how can I talk about glory? Besides, I just did what I should do, I shouldn't show off."

"Listen, listen, women may have long hair but little knowledge, but my son is more patient."

Lu Ming was very pleased. He patted Lu Anrong on the shoulder and then turned to Lu Anfan who was standing beside him with a restrained expression, "Anfan, you have to learn more from your big brother."

Lu Anfan responded sullenly.

He has been extremely worried these past two days and has been observing his family, but the scary thing is that the more he observes, the more he feels that what his second sister said is true.

Big brother is so fake.

After putting out the fire that day, he clearly saw his elder brother turned his back to others and showed an excited expression, and after seeing him, the first thing he blurted out was -

"An Fan, I saved Master Dai and the others, the people with the best family backgrounds in the academy!"

The eldest brother's first reaction was that the person he saved had a good family background, and he mentioned his family background.

But now the eldest brother seems to be very nonchalant, as if doing good deeds does not need to be mentioned all the time.

As for the sachet, he tried several times to ask where it was bought, but his eldest brother always changed the subject and he couldn't get the answer anyway.

The eldest sister is also extremely anxious about the engagement. All her attention has been on it these past few days, and she has been avoiding the second sister.

If you didn't feel guilty, would you avoid me like this?

He had asked about his eldest sister's birthday before, and she had overreacted.

Everyone in the family is not quite right.

The fourth sister was completely focused on Chen Cheng, no matter how he tried to persuade her.

This home made him feel strange and a little uneasy.

"Father, how come you have Mr. Xianhe's essay?" Lu Anfan asked again. "Why haven't I seen it before?"

It was only at this time that he found out that his father actually had such a valuable little policy paper, and that his elder brother had read it, but he did not.

Lu Ming's expression froze for a moment, and then he said, "I got this by accident before. You always like to play around with swords and guns, and you don't care about these things. Your brother is different. He likes to read these books, so I read them to him first, thinking that I would teach you after he is familiar with them."

is it?

Madam Lu was a little impatient. How could a concubine's son be compared with a legitimate son?

"Since I know that the emperor likes the book, of course I presented it to him immediately. If the emperor asks about the contents of the book during court, An Rong can still talk to the emperor. If it were you, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to remember it after reading it. Okay, okay, you don't have to go to court. Why do you get up so early?"

She urged Lu Anfan to leave, and then happily saw the father and son out.

Lu Anfan looked at their backs and smiled bitterly.

He didn't want to get up early either, so his eldest brother woke him up early and told him to go to the main hall. He felt a little nervous.

Is she really nervous? Or is she deliberately waking him up to show off and hurt his heart?

Lu Anfan couldn't help but walk towards Tingnuan Tower again. It was so early, his second sister must not have gotten up yet, but he always wanted to be closer to Tingnuan Tower.

But when he walked to the backyard, he saw a man tiptoeing towards the back door, carrying a small bag on his back.

Lu Anfan took a closer look and his expression changed.

He ran over quickly and grabbed the other person's arm, "Sister, it's still dark, where are you going?"

This person is Lu Zhaohua.

Lu Zhaohua was startled by him.

"What are you doing? Keep your voice down!"

When she turned around, Lu Anfan saw her face——

"Your painting looks like a monkey's butt, who are you going to meet?"

Lu Zhaohua originally had a pretty face and always dressed elegantly and gracefully, but now she put on too much makeup, which was a bit irritating to Lu Anfan's eyes.

"I told you to speak softly!" Lu Zhaohua covered his mouth anxiously. This place was not far from Tingnuan Tower. What if Lu Zhaoling heard his loud voice?

She didn't expect that Lu Zhaoling was picking up something behind the rockery in front.

She went to bed early yesterday and suddenly woke up earlier today, so she got up for morning exercises. After taking a look around, she saw some fortune behind the rockery. She just came in to pick it up when she heard their voices.

She leaned over to take a look and saw Lu Zhaohua's appearance, and her eyes twitched.

Lu Anfan guessed it, "Sister, you don't want to meet Chen Cheng in private, do you?"

Lu Zhaohua was guessed by him, her face flushed, and she pushed him, "Mr. Chen said he would take me to a place as beautiful as a paradise today. The journey is a bit far. If I get up late, I won't be able to make it back in the evening, so I have to go early."

"Sister! You can't go! Chen Cheng is disregarding your reputation by doing this. If something happens..." Lu Anfan became anxious and raised his voice even louder, and grabbed her forcefully.

Seeing that he was determined to stop her, Lu Zhaohua became very anxious and worried that she would not be able to get out, so she immediately bit his arm.

When Lu Anfan let go in pain, she grabbed the bag and smashed it on his head.

"Let go!"
