But before Lu Ze confessed his love for her, she would not let anyone know that she liked Lu Ze.

"However, I've been hearing people say recently that Guan Zhiyi and Lu Shizi are very close. It's all because of Qin Wuye stealing their love. This Lu Shizi and Guan Zhiyi..."

Qi Yuning said, "Don't trust rumors. They only met once."

…

Lu Ze painted all night last night, and he looked very bad during the morning court session.

When Prince Qi and his wife left, he was still very young, only six years old.

He vaguely remembered that Qi Yuning's mother, General Liu, smiled softly at him before she went to war, and asked him to take better care of his sister Qi.

As the eldest grandson of the Duke's Mansion, Lu Ze was still alive at that time and the military power of the Duke's Mansion had not yet been handed over. Lu Ze also aimed to be able to fight on the battlefield in the future.

Therefore, he had a deep impression of their expedition, and was afraid that he had remembered it wrong, so he went to find the hunting map in the princess's mansion twenty years ago at night. The hunting map showed all the people who went hunting.

I found a portrait of Qi Yuning's parents from twenty years ago, and only after matching the portrait with the appearance in my memory did I draw this picture.

Lu Ze painted the whole night without closing his eyes and finished it just before morning court.

After staying up all night, his eyes were dark and he felt listless and exhausted.

When the court was about to be dismissed, Emperor Shi Yuan looked at his grandson and said, "Ze'er, are you feeling unwell?"

Lu Ze bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I am fine."

When His Majesty asked this question, many officials looked towards Lu Ze.

The officials thought of the recent rumor in Shengjing City that Lu Ze's beloved wife was snatched away by his fifth cousin, and they all looked at Lu Ze with pity and sympathy. It was surprising that Prince Lu was so depressed because his beloved was snatched away.

There was a hint of contempt in his eyes when he looked at Qin Zhen. A cousin and his nephew were fighting over his loving wife-to-be. How shameless!
