There was a cool breeze outside the window. Shen Ruoyan looked at the wide-open window, lost in thought.
When Chunxi came in, she had been sitting by the window for who knows how long. "Madam, it's windy. Please close the window a little to avoid getting a headache."
The window was slowly closed, leaving only a crack. The strong wind blew, causing the branches outside to sway and fall.
Shen Ruoyan came back to his senses and asked, "How is the Marquis's injury?"
After Lu Yan went to visit Lu Jing, Shen Ruoyan asked Chun Xi to keep an eye on that place.
The imperial physician said that Lu Jing was lucky this time and his life was not in danger. He just needed to take care of himself and he would be able to recover as normal.
"The doctor said that the Marquis's injury is recovering very well. He will be able to move around normally in half a month at most."
Half a month...
Shen Ruoyan carefully considered this time, thinking about what role Lu Jing could still play. His contribution was free, and it was absolutely unacceptable to only think about enjoying the credit without thinking about the contribution.
"Madam, the prince requests an audience."
Qiu Ye walked in from outside to report, and Shen Ruoyan stood up, "Let him in."
At this time, Lu Yan should be reviewing his lessons. He suddenly came over. Could something have happened?
The jade pendant on Lu Yan's waist swayed slightly as he walked. In his hand was his usual booklet, and Shen Ruoyan had someone place the pen and ink on the table before he came in.
"Yan'er, what's wrong? What happened?" Shen Ruoyan asked with concern as soon as she saw him.
This child never causes any worry and always has his own plans for everything he does.
So, once he breaks his usual routine, something else must be going on.
Lu Yan glanced at the maids serving beside him, and Shen Ruoyan understood, "You all go down."
Chun Xi bowed and led everyone out. She closed the door thoughtfully and asked everyone outside to leave. She personally stood guard outside to prevent anyone from disturbing them.
After everyone left, Lu Yan opened his booklet and handed it over.
"Mrs. Fang took someone out of the house through the back door without informing anyone."
Lu Yan discovered this while studying in the backyard. He wanted to find a quiet place to sort out his thoughts, but unexpectedly, he ran into Aunt Fang sneaking out of the house with someone.
Although Fang Rou was in disguise, Lu Yan still recognized her.
Perhaps she thought that no one would be guarding there at that time, so she didn't even disguise her voice.
You can recognize her just by listening to her voice.
"Okay, I understand. Yan'er did a great job, so leave this matter to me." Shen Ruoyan smiled and touched Lu Yan's head as a sign of encouragement.
She was very happy that Lu Yan was the first to tell her about this, which showed that in his heart, she was a trustworthy mother.
This actually didn't exist before.
Because in Lu Yan's habit, most of the time, he would choose to handle it alone.
But now, things have changed.
Lu Yan nodded, feeling relieved.
Before coming here, he had actually thought about sending someone to follow Aunt Fang, and then telling his mother after finding out what she was doing. Or should he let his mother know about this from the beginning and let her make the decision?
Lu Yan has not yet developed the habit of trusting someone wholeheartedly, but after he took this step, he suddenly found that having someone he could talk to and trust was actually a very good feeling.
And this person is his mother!
With Lu Yan's discovery, Shen Ruoyan immediately began to make arrangements. After seeing Fang Rou leave the house, Lu Yan secretly arranged for someone to follow her.
Shen Ruoyan actually already had some guesses in his mind, but he would have to wait until the person came back to find out the details.
"Yan'er, there is something you need to be mentally prepared for." Shen Ruoyan looked at Lu Yan and suddenly wondered if the way she treated Lu Yan was a little cruel sometimes.
He was just a child after all, but every time I told him something, it constantly challenged his only good thoughts towards his family.
But compared to this, Shen Ruoyan hoped that he could have a clear mind.
Instead of having unrealistic expectations, it is better to face the reality and protect yourself - the pain is only temporary, but his life will not be full of pain!
Lu Yan's eyes were bright and clear. Shen Ruoyan sighed softly and said, "This time Aunt Fang went out, she must want to bring Lu Ankang back."
Lu Ankang's existence is the biggest threat to Lu Yan.
Don't think that Lu Jing and the old lady's hearts are all on Lu Sinian now. That's because Lu Sinian is just a blank piece of paper to them, and they can paint him as they please.
But Lu Ankang is Lu Jing's biological son, so no matter how much attention Lu Sinian receives, Shen Ruoyan will not regard him as a threat to Lu Yan.
His background will be his biggest weakness.
As long as Shen Ruoyan wants, Lu Sinian's identity can be turned upside down at any time.
This is also the reason why she was willing to help Zhuhong.
What could be more satisfying than watching your enemies treat the children outside as treasures?
When Lu Jing and the old lady put all their efforts into this new child, but in the end, they found out that they were just making wedding dresses for others, how would they feel?
It’s time for them to experience the feeling of being cheated!
"Mother, are you worried that when Lu Ankang comes back, he will compete with your son for the position of the crown prince?" Lu Yan tilted his head slightly, looking innocent and cute, but in his eyes, there was a maturity and consideration that was not in line with his age.
Shen Ruoyan nodded. Fang Rou had gone to great lengths to bring Lu Ankang back, and this was exactly her idea.
"Although Lu Ankang is apparently dead, it's convenient for him to return to the Marquisate with a new identity. He is still different in your father's heart. I'm afraid a dispute will inevitably arise."
This is something Lu Yan will have to face sooner or later. Now Lu Sinian is distracting Fang Rou, making her think that Lu Sinian is her son's biggest opponent.
But as long as Lu Yan remains the prince, Fang Rou's attention will sooner or later turn to Lu Yan.
Judging from the current situation, that day is not far away.
Lu Yan pondered for a moment, then slowly wrote on his booklet: "Mother, don't worry. Yan'er is not afraid. Whether it's Lu Ankang or Lu Sinian, Yan'er will keep the position of the prince and won't give it to anyone!"
Mother said that what belongs to him is his, and even father can’t take it away from him!
Shen Ruoyan smiled with satisfaction, “In this case, I am relieved.”
Doesn’t Fang Rou want to earn a future for her son?
Then come on!
She is very confident about her son!
