Lu Zhixing's possessiveness knows no boundaries, but Song Yushu doesn't find it annoying.
After all, she chose this person herself, and she knew his temper very well. A man in love still needs to feel safe.
Song Yushu nodded in agreement and held up three fingers. "I swear, I won't run around. I won't go anywhere except the Overwatch Council."
"Now that the Supervisory Council has people from Luoxue Villa, you can stay away from Jiang Siyuan." Lu Zhixing could still vividly remember the look Jiang Siyuan gave Song Yushu, which was like a lump in his throat. Perhaps Jiang Siyuan hadn't realized it yet, but he felt very uncomfortable.
"Yeah." Song Yushu nodded seriously, "Definitely stay away from him."
After repeatedly reminding Song Yushu several times, Lu Zhixing slowly walked to the hall.
Lin Zong's face darkened the moment he saw Lu Zhixing. "Your Highness Prince Jing is so majestic!"
"Grandfather." Lu Zhixing ignored Lin Zong and only bowed to Old Master Lin. He put his hands behind his back and said to Song Chun, "Please give Minister Lin a seat."
Lin Zong sat in the main seat with his eyes wide open. He was about to get angry when Old Master Lin coughed. He then gritted his teeth, stood up, and sat down angrily on the side seat.
"Grandfather, you are not in good health, why bother to come here in person?" If he had not respected the old man and the queen mother, he would not have tolerated the Lin family and the queen treating him like this.
Now Lu Zhixing has clearly gone against the Lin family, and knowing clearly how Old Master Lin treats him, he doesn't even bother to pretend.
Old Master Lin's attitude hadn't changed at all, and he was still so kind. "I heard that you weren't feeling well, so how could I not come and see you?"
If Lu Zhixing had not witnessed the cruelty and murderous intent in his eyes with his own eyes, he would never have believed that the grandfather who had loved him for so many years would be so ruthless to him.
But he was too naive before. How could the helmsman of the Lin Mansion, who controlled half of the Dayan Dynasty, be so affectionate?
"Thank you, Grandpa." Lu Zhixing replied coldly, as if he didn't know what Old Master Lin meant by coming to his house in person.
Lin Zong ignored Old Master Lin's warning look and angrily said, "Lu Zhixing, the Lin family has cultivated you in vain! Is this how you repay them?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, Old Master Lin felt a tightness in his chest again.
Lin Zong has always been condescending towards Lu Zhixing and Lu Zhichen, and even the Queen has the same attitude towards him. Now that he is in this situation, he will not pretend.
"Oh?" Lu Zhixing picked up a teacup slowly. "So, I apologize to Minister Lin first. The royal family can't afford to cultivate a prince, and it's Minister Lin who has to work hard."
"You!" Lin Zong pointed at Lu Zhixing and was about to curse again, but was stopped by Old Master Lin.
"Shut up!" Old Master Lin apologized to Lu Zhixing, "Your uncle is a straightforward person, and he doesn't hold back. Don't bother with him."
This means that Lin Zong is an elder after all. Lu Zhixing sneered in his heart, "Grandson dare not."
Seeing that Lin Zong had already made the atmosphere awkward, there was no point in chatting about family matters anymore. Old Master Lin coughed lightly and said, "Pu'er, I believe you already know why I came to see you. Could you please not get involved in this matter?"
"Grandson, I don't know what grandpa is talking about." Lu Zhixing touched the silk band around his eyes. "Grandson's eyes have been hurting for the past few days, so I haven't been out."
Old Master Lin sighed softly, "Isn't it your troublesome brother? He was trying to show off his power for a while and got the assassins out of the mansion just for a moment of pleasure. Now, if that assassin opens his mouth..."
Old man Lin was very experienced. He explained the matter clearly and directly, leaving Lu Zhixing no chance to pretend to be confused.
"There's such a thing?" Lu Zhixing frowned. "Grandfather, I advise you not to get involved anymore. At your age, why bother running around for Fifth Brother?"
"Our Lin family has long been inseparable from you and Chen'er, so Pu'er." Old Master Lin stood up tremblingly, "Grandfather is begging you here, spare his life, spare the life of the Lin family!"
Lu Zhixing quickly and accurately supported Old Master Lin as he was about to kneel down. "Grandfather, what are you doing? Do you want to see your grandson being reported by the censors?"
"Lu Zhixing, you are forcing your grandfather to die! Is this your filial piety?" Lin Zong pretended to support Old Master Lin while adding fuel to the fire.
"My grandson has never done anything. Why are you forcing me like this?" Lu Zhixing said with a double meaning. He suddenly covered his eyes with one hand, spitting blood from his mouth, and fell forward.
"Your Highness!" Fortunately, Liu Bai was quick to hug Lu Zhixing, and then he shouted outside, "Someone! Call the doctor from the palace! Quick!"
Then he carried Lu Zhixing out at lightning speed. The Prince Jing's Mansion was in an uproar and everyone started running.
Old Master Lin and Lin Zong watched all this in amazement. The entire palace was in an uproar, but this hall seemed to be forgotten, quiet and cold.
I don’t know how long it took, but Old Master Lin suddenly laughed, and there was pride and regret in his laughter.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Lin Zong was a little scared.
"Let's go back. From now on, we can never come to Prince Jing's Mansion again." After laughing, Old Master Lin stood up, holding his chest.
Lin Zong quickly supported him, "Dad!"
"Walk!"
After the Lin family's carriage left Prince Jing's Mansion, Song Chun came back to report. Lu Zhixing was standing by the window with his hands behind his back, not knowing what he was thinking, and did not respond.
Song Yushu, who was standing aside, waved to Song Chun, then glanced at Liu Bai. When there was no one in the study, Song Yushu walked forward and shook Lu Zhixing's hand.
After all, it was his grandfather who had loved him for so many years, and the truth was even more painful for Lu Zhixing.
Lu Zhixing held Song Yushu's hand tightly and whispered, "Sometimes I even wonder, if I wasn't born into the royal family, if I wasn't born to the queen, would things be better?"
"That's not necessarily true. Every family has its own difficulties." Song Yushu replied seriously, not saying anything empty to fool Lu Zhixing. "If you weren't born to the Queen, you probably wouldn't be able to enjoy a status that ordinary people can't match. You can't choose where you're born, but you can choose the path you take."
Lu Zhixing turned around and looked at Song Yushu, pulling the corners of his mouth into an ugly smile, "Can't you comfort me?"
Song Yushu shook his head. "I'm telling the truth. Besides, if you weren't born to the Queen, how could you have met me?"
The two looked at each other and laughed. Lu Zhixing held Song Yushu in his arms and said in a deep voice, "Yes, this one thing is better than everything else."
