Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 1487 It’s time for reckoning
It was Lu Mingyong's words that pointed out the key to all the problems.

The methods used by Princess Xiangning, whether it was to find a wet nurse to drive a wedge between the couple, or to make Aunt Luo say those words in front of Princess Zhenli, they were all trying to attack people's hearts.

Assuming that the wet nurse's incident was just a coincidence, she did not know beforehand that Princess Zhenli was ill, but the incident with Aunt Luo was definitely not a coincidence.

Otherwise, how could Princess Xiangning go to the Duke's Mansion of Yue State at all costs just to play the chess piece of Aunt Luo?
Therefore, there must be someone in the Duke of Yue's palace who is secretly collaborating with her.

Or maybe there was someone around her who was instigating her.

After all this was arranged, Lu Mingyong finally had time to appease everyone.

He first found Wei Changfeng, who was busy working on this matter: "Dad, please take a rest. You have been in poor health recently. Let others handle these matters."

Father Wei sighed: "I feel uneasy when something like this happens. If you don't accompany the princess at this time, what are you doing standing here? Go quickly!"

Lu Mingyong supported him who was staggering: "Dad, the kindness of raising him for more than ten years will always be remembered in my heart, so dad, you don't have to be so cautious."

"A'zhi is your daughter-in-law. As a father-in-law, you do whatever other father-in-laws do. A'zhi is not that kind of person. You don't need to protect her carefully, she will be your child's wife through life and death."

Father Wei patted him on the shoulder: "Shur, as a father, I know that you are filial, and I also know that our father-son relationship over the years will not end just because you have restored your identity."

"As a father, although I will always remember the kindness of the Marquis, I will not put myself in a low position and be careful to please the princess for you."

"My father really cares about her, not only because of her kindness to you and her contribution to the Lu family's birth of children, but also because she is indeed a child that makes people feel heartbroken."

"As a father, I also know some of the intricate relationships between the court and the government, but you must give her an explanation for this matter, even if it means risking your reputation and future."

Lu Mingyong cupped his hands: "My child understands that if you don't protect your wife and children, how can you be worthy of being a husband and a father?"

Father Wei nodded: "Cultivating oneself, managing one's family, governing the country, and bringing peace to the world are never parallel relationships, but progressive relationships."

"Rectify yourself, manage your family, govern a big country, and then bring peace to the world. You can be trusted as a father, but you must protect this family well, so that you can talk about your ideals and ambitions."

Lu Mingyong knelt down on one knee and said respectfully, "My child, please remember your father's words."

Father Wei drove him away again: "Okay, you have nothing to do here, go and accompany the princess!"

Lu Mingyong nodded: "Mr. Baili is treating her now. The child will only disturb her. I will go and stay with her later."

Never leave easily again.

Father Wei was silent for a moment, and then said: "Go and see your Aunt Lan. She has been having trouble eating and sleeping recently because of the nanny."

Lu Mingyong nodded without thinking: "My child will go visit her later. My child knows that you all love Ah Zhi. During this period, my child has seen the shock and fear you and your mother have endured."

Father Wei looked kind and said: "Go quickly."

Lu Mingyong stepped back quietly, walked a certain distance, and then looked back.

The adoptive father's steps have staggered, and his waist has become rickety. It is as if something important has suddenly been accomplished, the burden in his heart has been lifted, and he is calmly welcoming the fact of old age.

In a daze, he remembered that when he was very young, his adoptive father brought him as a proton to Yujing City to take care of his daily life and teach him the principles of life.

In the end, he even pushed his biological son to death. During the escape, he also lost his wife, and the young Xiao Jin'er also died unexpectedly.

If it weren't for his father's great trust and gratitude to his old master in his heart, his adoptive father would have gone away feeling guilty for pushing his son to die all these years, right?

Now that the grievances of the nine clans of Yiyong Hou have been cleared, Ah Zhi has also given birth to an heir for him.

Perhaps because of the birth of little Lu Xun, the adoptive father felt that his mission was completed and he could finally put everything aside and go see his wronged wife and children.

That’s why the adoptive father’s health is deteriorating, right?

He went to many doctors to help his adoptive father take care of his health. The adoptive father was also actively taking medicine, but there was no improvement at all.A doctor had quietly told him that his adoptive father might not survive the winter.

Because a person who has given up his mind cannot survive.

Thinking of this, Lu Mingyong suddenly turned around and walked quickly towards the staggering father Wei. He knelt down on one knee with red eyes: "Dad, the child still needs you."

"What happened to Ah Zhi made me panic; what happened to the court made me worried; what happened to Little Lu Xun made me feel at a loss."

"My child still needs you to help him get through these difficulties. He also needs you to teach him how to be a competent father like you."

Father Wei was startled, then helped him up: "As long as my father is alive, he will not let you have nothing to rely on and fight alone."

Lu Mingyong stared at Dad Wei deeply for a moment, then turned and left.

He has never been the kind of person who is good at expressing emotions, and the words he just said have been replayed in his stomach countless times.

I took this opportunity to finally say it.

Hopefully, he won't lose a loved one soon after gaining one.

By the time Lu Mingyong returned to the yard, the list of suspicious persons had been sent to him.

He flipped it over casually, then handed it to the eldest princess: "Mother, please take a look."

When the eldest princess took a look, she found that they were all servants who accompanied her daughter when she got married, and there were no people from the Yue Kingdom's palace.

Because she was extremely careful about her daughter's affairs, she took care of everything in detail. She had seen all the people who were dowry at that time, so she knew all the names of these people.

But she couldn't figure it out. If these people wanted to keep their lives in the future, they had to rely on their masters. What would be the benefit to them by betraying their masters?
Lu Mingyong stood up: "If there is nothing wrong with mother, then I will start to deal with it."

The eldest princess clutched the list tightly: "I'll leave this matter to you."

Lu Mingyong said cool words in a calm voice: "Take him to the main courtyard and kill him with a stick in front of everyone."

Lu Xi was shocked: "Master, this..."

Lu Mingyong stood up: "I never explain what I do, but this time, I hope everyone knows that I will never be lenient to anyone who puts his hands on Ah Zhi!"

Lu Xi did not doubt that he was there and went to do it immediately.

The eldest princess was originally a decisive person, but now she is a bit superstitious. She hesitated: "Mingyong, Zhenli hasn't given birth yet, is there any taboo on seeing blood?"

Lu Mingyong smiled without answering: "Mother, little Lu Xun's baptism was not done, and there was no festive color. The color of the blood is just right."

The eldest princess looked at Lu Mingyong and slowly showed a satisfied smile.

Whether he was angry for the sake of beauty or ruthless, she only knew that the man in front of her was protecting her daughter at all costs.

Then, she will definitely support it.

Furthermore, even if she felt sorry for her daughter, she would stay out of her son-in-law's affairs and have a sense of propriety.

Thinking of this, she raised her lips: "It doesn't matter how Xiangning bribes these people. What matters is that anyone who hurts Zhenli must not be let go!"

Yes, no one can be spared.

It’s time to liquidate Xiangning.
